In the imperial study, after everyone else had left, Emperor Jinghong asked Eunuch Huang a question.
"Your Majesty, Jiang Shaoyun is Jiang Zhuangyuan's younger brother, his own flesh and blood."
"Same father and mother?"
"Yes, the Jiang family has no children born out of wedlock."
Grandpa Huang had done his research and knew quite a bit about the Jiang family.
"The Jiang family is quite impressive!"
Emperor Jinghong said nothing more; he had already said quite a lot.
When the results of the palace examination were announced, Jiang Shaoyun was stunned for a moment when he heard that he was the top scholar. He quickly thanked the emperor for his great favor!
He had fantasized about becoming the top scholar in the imperial examination, but it was just a fantasy.
During the Dali Dynasty, even the top-ranking martial arts scholar was paraded through the streets on horseback.

At this moment, Shao Yun understood the meaning and cost of growing up.
As he grew up and became an official, he took another step closer to his goal.
His elder brother said that being a third-rank imperial bodyguard was a good position.
His performance has been observed by the Emperor, and he will be able to further develop his career if given the opportunity in the future.
Shao Yun knew that his older brother was thinking further ahead than he was.
The Jiang family has no roots in the capital. The brothers must help each other to find a way out.
