"Although Li Yu is a student from a humble family, he is also a student of Xu Zheng, the Great Confucian Scholar and Doctor at the Imperial College."
A student from a humble family, a disciple of a Great Scholar—what did the Emperor suddenly think of?
"Do you know who this Li Yu is?
Where is he from?
Who are the members of his family?
Which clan does he belong to?"
The Emperor's series of questions left the ministers kneeling on the ground with little time to think.
Xu Zhengzhong was the first to answer the Emperor's questions.
"Your Majesty, it is true that Li Yu comes from a humble background, but he is also a collateral branch of the Li Family in the Capital City. Last summer, as he was preparing for the examination, he encountered people from the Li Family. He was accepted by the main family and received their training, which is why he became a student under Xu Zheng to single-mindedly study!"
