Chapter 895: Taming the Bird (1)

Mo Qingze's achievement of becoming the Champion Scholar was a grand joy for the Mo family, as well as for the entire Mo clan and Liu Yang Village. The day after receiving the confirmed news, many villagers spontaneously set off a long string of firecrackers outside the Mo family's doorstep in celebration.

This time, the Mo family did not host a banquet for guests. Instead, on an auspicious day selected for the event, under Clan Leader Mo Fang's guidance, they opened the Mo family ancestral temple to report Mo Qingze's accomplishment as Champion Scholar to their ancestors, praying for the ancestors' blessings so that the Mo clan's fortunes would rise henceforth, flourishing and thriving.

Two days hadn't passed before Mo Qingze's official appointment papers arrived. To everyone's surprise, he was not placed directly into the Hanlin Academy like champion scholars of previous years, but was instead appointed as the Crown Prince's Companion Lecturer, starting at the sixth rank level.
