The Crown Prince's Vicious Plan

In ancient times, the selection of a new Primus was governed by four essential criteria.

The first requirement revolved around physical appearance; the candidate needed to possess a handsome countenance. A pleasing appearance was highly regarded and often added extra points to one's candidacy. When the newly chosen Primus rode into the capital on a stately horse, it was common for many women to become enamored. The new Primus was frequently considered a potential suitor for the princess.

Su Bin's appearance fully satisfied this initial condition.

The second condition pertained to the candidate's ability to articulate thoughts eloquently. The individual had to be exceptionally well-spoken. Su Bin also fulfilled this requirement, as he displayed his eloquence while explaining his answers to the Emperor earlier.

The third stipulation revolved around the candidate's handwriting; beautiful penmanship could also garner additional points.
