Zhizhou: \"You're An Official, But You're Raising A Bunch Of Demonesses?

Chapter 60: The Invitation of the Grand Princess

"Swoosh!"

Several sharp arrows flew through the air,

Accurately piercing the hearts of several thugs who intended to stab Bai Yu to death.

"Ah..."

The men groaned and fell to the ground, losing their breath.

"Mr. Bai Yu."

A figure swiftly passed by,

Three tall female guards dressed in black,

Gracefully leaping down from the eaves like swaying green leaves, their figures agile and vigorous.

They were not on the same level as the fallen thugs.

They arrived in front of Bai Yu.

Their peripheral vision glanced at the thugs lying on the ground.

Then, they respectfully bowed to Bai Yu and presented a document, saying, "We are here on the orders of the Grand Princess to deliver an invitation to the Literary Talent Poetry Gathering."

The Grand Princess had repeatedly emphasized and instructed

To treat this person with respect, just as if they were facing her.

Usually, when inviting scholars, they would casually send a few servants to deliver the invitation.

Some people didn't even receive an invitation.

Only this person actually mobilized these personal bodyguards.

"Heh!"

Thinking of the 'Black-clothed Gentleman' he had encountered in front of the Academy that day,

Bai Yu couldn't help but chuckle.

The current Emperor's family leader,

The first person he saw was actually this Grand Princess.

He accepted the invitation and happily said, "Your Highness, I am honored by your invitation and will go immediately."

The Grand Princess loved literature.

After each session of the imperial examination,

She would hold a Literary Talent Poetry Gathering, inviting scholars from all over the world to gather.

This was a grand event for literati,

More relaxed and casual compared to the strict and tense imperial examination.

Everyone engaged in lively discussions, recited poetry, and showcased their literary talents.

For those who didn't perform well in the exams, this was also an opportunity.

If there was a chance to gain the Grand Princess's appreciation, there might be a possibility of being recommended for an official position.

Therefore,

Each session of this poetry gathering was more grand than the last, and countless scholars were eager to join.

Receiving an invitation from the Grand Princess was a symbol of status and talent!

This also seems like a business card in a way.

If you haven't attended the Grand Princess's poetry gathering, then you must be the lowest-ranked literati.

Aside from being the personal hobby of the Grand Princess, this poetry gathering also serves a political purpose.

From a political perspective, this is also a means of aligning factions.

Establishing good relationships with newcomers and becoming familiar with them is always better than being aloof and having no contact.

The Grand Princess's reputation is largely spread by these literati.

As the top scorer in the imperial examination, Bai Yu's invitation to participate in the gathering of talented poets hosted by the Grand Princess is only natural.

"Excuse me!"

The group completed their task and bowed to Bai Yu.

Just as they were about to leave,

"Wait!"

Bai Yu called out to them.

The leader respectfully asked, "May I ask if you have any business?"

"Could you pass on a few words to Her Highness for me?"

"Please go ahead!"

Bai Yu smiled and pointed to the bodies on the ground. "Please inform Her Highness about this matter."

"And tell her that if she can help me resolve this issue, I will give her a gift that is guaranteed to be of great value. How about that?"

I don't know if the old emperor introduced himself to his children.

But it seems that both the princes and princesses value me.

This is Bai Yu's advantage.

Bai Yu is petty, but he doesn't like trouble.

He doesn't have much spare time to investigate his opponents or plot against them...

Isn't it better to spend that time rolling in bed with Sister Long?

It's easier to simplify the problem, shift the conflict, and let others handle it.

Smart people never personally deal with problems.

Instead, they use existing conditions and drive resources to make others do things for them.

The so-called power is just about who can manipulate the cards, whether they are big or small.

The opponent sent a few thugs to harm him.

But he can manipulate the Grand Princess to eliminate dissidents for him.
