Teachers
As long as the selection of Little Princess's tutor was not settled, there remained an insurmountable chasm between the second and third positions on the Celestial List.
Grand Tutor Su Hua, with an air of haughtiness, lifted his chin and stroked his beard, appearing somewhat ashamed to be associated with his own junior brother.
Witnessing this scene, the onlookers fell into a puzzled silence once again.
The contention between two Masters for a disciple was indeed the prime amusement in the court recently.
The spectators relished the spectacle, reluctant to take sides themselves.
A three-generation Imperial Tutor and a Master from the Jixia Literary Academy, both from the same school...
Those eligible for court appointment were acutely aware that this was not the time to pick sides.
To do so would be inviting trouble upon oneself.
