It was a simple matter for the Minister of Personnel to acquire the rankings of the newly appointed scholars before their official release.
Upon hearing that the Primus was named Shao Yunduan, the Minister instructed someone to compare the portrait with the distinguished gentleman.
As Elder Miss’s words reached their ears, the servants immediately understood the situation.
After confirming that it was indeed the same person, they hurriedly made their way to the Tian Family to deliver the momentous news.
Word quickly spread.
It turned out that the man who had captured Elder Miss’s attention had become the Primus!
“Elder Miss Tian, you have excellent taste!”
“It’s a match made in heaven! Destiny! Destiny!”
“What a remarkable tale!”
“Primus Shao is incredibly fortunate!”
“I can’t help but feel envious!”
Shao Yunduan’s name swiftly circulated throughout the capital, making him the fastest and most revered Primus in the history of the Qin Dynasty.
Understandably, many people sought to uncover his background.
Before long, the issue surfaced…
Primus Shao was already married, and his wife had accompanied him to the capital for the examination, standing by his side.
This revelation left everyone stunned.
They were speechless!
Whenever the imperial examination candidates arrived in the capital, the focus was solely on the candidates themselves. No one cared about their marital status or the presence of their spouse.
The situation gave rise to numerous divorces.
The idea of a wife accompanying her husband to the capital for the examination was unheard of and highly unusual.
Women were not accustomed to such extensive travel, and few men were willing to undertake such a long journey with their wives.
However, fate seemed to have played a role…
“Oh my, Primus Shao is already married!”
“This is…!”
“In my opinion, Primus Shao’s family cannot be compared to Elder Miss from the Ministry of Personnel. They are worlds apart!”
“But they are still a married couple…”
What will Elder Miss do? Such a dreadful predicament!”
“I wonder if Primus Shao regrets it!”
“No, could it be a misunderstanding? I have never heard of anyone bringing their wife to the capital for the examination. Is that even allowed?”
“I am not sure, and no one else seems to know either. Perhaps it is a misunderstanding.”
“But how can that be? A fellow townsman of Primus Shao even visited their residence and witnessed it firsthand. What they said must be true.”
The Tian Family felt a mixture of embarrassment and frustration.
The matter had been significant from the start, and at this point, it could no longer be concealed.
Those individuals who had held a grudge against the Tian Family were likely reveling in their misfortune behind closed doors.
Officer Tian’s face darkened as he snapped at Tian Shanshan. “You are nothing but trouble! Why didn’t you find out if he was married? What are we supposed to do now?”
Madame Tian sympathized with her daughter and spoke with anger, “Shanshan has been treated unjustly. Old Master, we must find a solution!”
Officer Tian sneered, “What other options do we have? It’s too late to seek a divorce now!”
“But we can’t abandon Shanshan like this, can we?”
“What else can I do when my heart is not in it?”
