"Queen Empress, please ask Gao Ming. We can't do such a thing." Gu Chengan refused.

Yun Dai smiled and said, "Why, do you look down on businessmen? Have you forgotten that you have to take money from Sister Yun Wu every month? Her money is obtained from doing business."

Gu Chengan shook his head: "I don't look down on businessmen. I am a scholar and I can't do business. Although the emperor has eliminated my fame, in the future..."

"You can't help it." Yun Dai said calmly, "The Gu family is almost unable to get out of the way. I still think about something so far? Go home and check the imperial edict."

Gu Chengan was shocked: "Imperial Order?"

"Baoxing, I'm leaving."

Yun Dai was too lazy to explain and took Baoxing and Qingyi away.

Gu Cheng'an and Gu Chengning looked at each other, then ran towards home.

Gu Hongmiao was still lying in the study like a pool of mud.

Tian took out the imperial edict.

Gu Chengan took the imperial edict and looked at it, his expression a little dull.

"Show me." Gu Chengning snatched it and looked at it, but his eyes began to shiny, "Good, amazing, amazing."

Gu Chengan glanced at him: "You seem quite happy."

"Nonsense, I'm happy, of course." Gu Chengning raised his eyebrows, "Do you know what this imperial edict means?"

"It means that from then on, our Gu family has completely cut off the road to studying for the imperial examination!" Gu Cheng'an said, and a sadness spread from the bottom of his heart. "Although our family is not a high-ranking family, our ancestors have also made merits. Now that we have fallen into this generation, we have even lost the reputation of the scholarly family and become a merchant family."

He felt uncomfortable and extremely depressed.

To be honest, for the Gu family, they would rather be poor and hungry than keep the name of a scholarly family. At least in terms of face and reputation, I don’t know how many times higher than those merchants.

But what can I do?

The Gu family has fallen to this point, and it is also his own fault.

He looked at the imperial edict and felt a burst of sadness in his heart.

Seeing him like this, Gu Chengning snorted and said, "Are you reluctant? Are you willing to be collected by someone, chopped off your fingers, and beaten in the street? If there is no such imperial edict, the Gu family's house will not be kept in a month."

"What debt?" Tian asked after hearing this.

"Sister-in-law doesn't know yet?" Gu Chengning said.

Tian looked at her husband.

Gu Chengan was ashamed.

He earned too little as a teacher and was far from enough expenses, so he had to borrow money. The addiction to Hanshi Powder started and was simply a life-threatening person.

He was also helpless.

Whenever this happens, he becomes more and more resentful to Gu Yunxiang.

If it weren't for her, why would he become like this?

"Oh." He sighed.

Tian looked worried: "My husband, I don't care about the things outside, but you should accept this imperial edict? Our family is already like this, but it can never stand it anymore. Besides, you have to be beheaded if you disobey the imperial edict."

Gu Chengan remained silent.

He started to study at the age of five, and for more than ten years, the books of sages have been deeply rooted in his bones and blood.

He was really... unwilling to let him abandon this identity completely and turn to a lowly businessman.

Gu Chengning rolled up the imperial edict and said, "I think it's good. The emperor issued an order to do business. This is the imperial businessman. No matter what business we do in the future, we will have the emperor's will to protect us. Are we still afraid that we won't make money?"

"Damn it!"
