To the man’s astonishment, he was not only surprised but also delighted. The news caused a commotion among the members of the Hanlin Academy.

Everyone there knew all too well that he was not supposed to be promoted this time.

In a world filled with intelligent individuals, it became clear to them what had transpired.

It was the doing of the Tian Family.

Officer Tian must have intervened and influenced the decision!

Indeed, the Tian Family showed no signs of relenting in their pursuit to keep Shao Yunduan under their control.

Others deeply regretted their actions – they had missed a golden opportunity. They lacked the courage to take advantage of such a foolish situation!

But now it was too late.

If the Tian Family wished to see Shao Yunduan suffer, they would oblige and curry favor with the Tian Family.

Thus, Shao Yunduan was burdened with a highly challenging task.

He chose not to retaliate and accepted all the responsibilities placed upon him.

Someone knowledgeable from the Censorate even suggested that Shao Yunduan should face impeachment.

They accused him of being immoral, disrespectful to his elders, rebellious, and treacherous. They argued that he brought disgrace upon all scholars and failed to live up to the Emperor’s expectations. They claimed he was unfit to hold any official position!

Since revealing the involvement of the Tian Family was not an option, they seized upon the Qiao Family, turning it into an issue. The individual leading the impeachment believed they had found the perfect avenue and took great pride in their discovery.

For scholars, possessing both morality and talent was of utmost importance. Once they were accused of immorality, their lives would be utterly ruined!

Even the most revered scholar could fall from the heights of acclaim to the depths of despair overnight, let alone the Primus.

Secretly, countless individuals were observing the unfolding drama.

Normally, the appointment of a junior editor at the Hanlin Academy would not garner the attention of courtiers.

Frankly, no one would be so idle as to impeach a minor editor.

However, the situation changed when the Tian Family became involved.

Certain ministers felt that the Tian Family was exerting undue influence.

After all, it was the Tian Family’s own mistake for hiring Shao Yunduan as their son-in-law. What did that have to do with Editor Shao?

On the contrary, Shao Yunduan’s refusal to abandon his wife, even if it meant compromising his own future, was quite admirable.

The Emperor personally intervened, and Officer Tian even shared a drink with Editor Shao in the presence of the Emperor, declaring that they should let it go. However, less than 20 days had passed!

Now it was time to settle the score!

Officer Tian was too arrogant, thinking he would not face any consequences when the Tian Family had no involvement in this matter.

They would see what the Emperor thought of all this.

But Shao Yunduan had been waiting for this moment!

What was the point of engaging in a minor dispute within the Hanlin Academy?

At most, they would receive a scolding from the officials.

It was not as thrilling as appearing in court.

Thus, by severing ties with the Qiao Family, the Tian Family could maintain a clearer perspective.

After this incident, the Tian Family would think twice before attempting any cheap shots or tricks in the near future. Shao Yunduan had to give them credit for that.

Shao Yunduan’s impeachment left Emperor Xuan feeling deeply displeased.

The Emperor held a favorable opinion of his newly appointed Primus. This young man possessed talent, and his rise from a humble background to the position of Primus was no easy feat. He exhibited diligence and, even after achieving success, did not succumb to greed for wealth and power. Furthermore, he remained steadfastly loyal to his wife.
