When Xun Yue arrived at the study, he saw Xun Shuang reading and quickly stepped forward to greet him.
"Nephew greets Uncle!"
Xun Shuang put down the book in his hand, looked at his nephew with a smile, his eyes full of satisfaction and happiness.
"No need for formalities!"
"Thank you, Uncle!"
After the greetings were exchanged, Xun Shuang looked at Xun Yue and said with a smile, "Now that you have achieved a second-place ranking, you will surely be highly valued by His Majesty. An appointment will be issued in a few days. I wonder what your thoughts are?"

Xun Yue then explained his thoughts to Xun Shuang in detail.

Xun Yue respectfully replied, "Nephew will humbly follow Uncle's teachings!"
"That's enough! Go and rest!"
"Nephew takes his leave!!"
After bowing to Xun Shuang, Xun Yue returned to his room to pack his bags and began to devise a plan for future governance.
