A court meeting suddenly convened by King Chun had just concluded, and the officials walked out from the grand hall.
As the Regent of the month, King Chun, according to past practice, would hold a court meeting on the last day of each month to summarize the court affairs of that month.

Starting in August, all scholars who wish to study at an academy, whether it's a court-run or a state-run academy, or a privately-owned small academy, must pass the spring exams.
