Gong Hongru! Mu Hanyan was also a little surprised. This Master Gong Hongru was said to be one of the most senior instructors in Longyan College, and his strength was said to be among the top three in the college. Most importantly, Gong Hongru was known for his ruthlessness and strictness. As long as it came to matters of favoritism and abuse of power, he would not even give face to the dean.
This time he will be in charge of supervising the admissions election, and I wonder how strict it will be.
If Tang Bufan still had some hope before, now he probably has no chance at all.
But, didn't this old guy say he was in seclusion all year round and never interfered with the affairs of the academy? Why did he show up now? Mu Hanyan was a little puzzled again.
She didn't doubt that Zhao Sining was talking nonsense. Looking at the serious expressions of the Longyan College instructors around them, she knew that what he said was true.
"What's wrong? Are you a little worried?" Seeing the pensive look on Mu Hanyan's face, Zhao Si Ning thought she was unsure and was secretly proud of herself. He continued, "But don't worry too much. You still have a place at Zhengying Academy. Even if Longyan Academy doesn't want you, we at Zhengying Academy will still keep our promise and will definitely take you in when the time comes."
When saying this, Zhao Sining had a look of sarcasm on his face, and he even laughed out loud at the end.
After hearing this, the people around finally "understood" what was going on.
It turned out that Zhengying Academy had already given Mu Hanyan a place. This wasn't surprising. Given the Mu family's status as one of the eight great families in Beijing, Zhengying Academy had to give them some respect, so giving them a place was perfectly normal.
In fact, if the supervisory tutor of Longyan College's enrollment election this time was not Gong Hongru, who even gave the dean a headache, giving the Mu family a direct selection quota would not be a big deal.
Why was Mu Hanyan so arrogant earlier? Now he had the answer. He probably thought there was a place for him at Longyan College, so he was planning to give the Zhengying College spot to Tang Bufan.
However, now that she knew that Gong Hongru was the supervisor of the Longyan College admissions election, Mu Hanyan would probably have to give up this idea. Forget about the Mu family patriarch, even if the emperor had asked him to do so, Gong Hongru would never have given him face.
Since Mu Hanyan is not favored by the clan, she is not even qualified to sit in the audience seats. Of course, her qualifications are very limited. She will most likely not be selected by Longyan College under the supervision of Gong Hongru. If she cannot even enter Zhengying College at that time, wouldn't it be a joke?
Of course, even if she got into Zhengying College, it would still be a joke. It would be fine if no one knew about it, but Zhao Sining exposed the secret deal between Zhengying College and the Mu family in public in the hall. If Mu Hanyan shamelessly went to Zhengying College again, wouldn't that be humiliating herself?
The instructors from Longyan College glanced at Mu Hanyan with contempt. It turned out that the Mu family had already made arrangements with Zhengying College and prepared a way out for Mu Hanyan. Obviously, the Mu family was not optimistic about this number one playboy in the capital. However, he was the eldest grandson of the head of the family after all, so they had to give him some face, which was also considered to be giving some face to the Mu family. That was why this kind of shady and secret deal took place.
It seems that what Zhao Sining said before was not nonsense. The reason why Mu Hanyan became so famous and was later recruited back to the capital by the main family was because his father, the lord of Black Stone City, abused his power for personal gain and piled all the resources of the branch family on him.
As tutors at Longyan College, they naturally despise this kind of dandy from aristocratic family who has no talent or ability, has achieved some success only by relying on family influence, but is shameless and takes pride in it, bullying others.
The incident in the Valley of Exotic Beasts had a huge impact on the reputation of Zhengying College, so Pang Dezong blocked the news at all costs. Even the people in Longyan College were unaware of the inside story, let alone that the quota was actually won by Mu Hanyan at the cost of her life.
"You're overthinking it. It's just Zhengying Academy. I won't go even if they invite me." Mu Hanyan said lightly, "Also, if you keep jumping around like a clown, I might lose my patience. Don't you know better than anyone how this spot came from? They just gave it to me eagerly. I don't want to pay attention to you because I don't want to waste time talking to idiots. But you keep nagging and making me waste my saliva. Tea!" Mu Hanyan turned around impatiently and looked at Zirong and others.
Zirong hurriedly handed over a cup of tea, and Mu Hanyan drank it in one gulp, then looked at Zhao Sining sarcastically. After hearing this, Zhao Sining saw Mu Hanyan's action, and felt a burning pain on his face. Humiliation, this was a real humiliation!
Mu Hanyan originally wanted to give the place in Zhengying College to Tang Bufan to fulfill his wish, so she didn't want to have a quarrel with him. However, Zhao Sining was relentless and said so much. She knew that not only could she not go to Zhengying College, but Tang Bufan could not go either.
Zhao Si Ning was clearly out to get her, and she saw her intention to transfer her spot to Tang Bufan. Even if he got into Zhengying College, he would be in trouble and would never get ahead. So why should she save face for them?
As soon as Mu Hanyan said this, everyone's faces turned a bit strange. Zhengying College had so eagerly offered this spot to Mu Hanyan? What was going on? And this contemptuous and arrogant tone was really eye-catching.
Zhao Si Ning and Pang De Zong's expressions changed. Pang De Zong glared at Zhao Si Ning. He had just felt that Zhao Si Ning's constant ridicule of Mu Han Yan was quite satisfying, but now he felt that it was a bit troublesome. Zhao Si Ning saw Pang De Zong's expression change, and then he shut up.
Seeing the actions of Pang Dezong and Zhao Sining, the expressions of the people around them became even more complicated. It seemed that there was some deep grudge between them.
