"I assume you are here to see King Duan?" Mr Hua smiled, unsurprised by the figure’s reaction.
"I would like his opinion on some insignificant matters." The figure nodded.
"You call the rankings for the imperial examinations an insignificant matter?" Mr Hua’s tone was calm, but his eyes glimmered.
The figure moved in his seat. Then, he removed the hood on his cloak, revealing a youthful face. This was Su Qing, the one standing behind the Crown Prince during the duel.
"You are extremely sharp. I am humbled by your ability. I wonder what views you have on the rankings for this examinations. I would like to learn more from you." Su Qing bowed.
