Marquis Gu shifted his gaze and changed the topic, asking, "How old is this Xie Yun...?"
Gu Lan thought for a moment and speculated, "Twenty-four or five? You should ask Gu Changting, he would know."
"The last time I returned to the capital, he was still the Eldest Prince's companion."
"The Eldest Prince is now the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace."
"I know, but I'm used to calling him that," Gu Chengzhao reminisced a bit and started to explain to Gu Lan.
"I remember Xie Yun became an Advanced Scholar at the age of seventeen. That year's spring exam was hosted by the Crown Prince Rong Jing, who is now the Emperor. Later, the former Emperor personally appointed Xie Yun as the top scholar and vindicated the Xie Family's past grievances. Subsequently, he seemed to advocate for women's studies and became Dayan's First Noble Son."
Marquis Gu didn't like studying, so he had a particularly deep impression of those who excelled in academics.
"What is he doing now?"
