Loyalty in the Time of Tyranny Chapter 40

Adrian Tang had been in Shengjing for less than a year, but he had heard of the name of Prince Xiaoyao Zhao Ao.

Zhao Ao is the younger brother of the current emperor, and his title is Jing. Normally, he should be called King Jing, but people call him King Xiaoyao. Zhao Ao is nearly fifty years old, but unlike other princes, this prince likes beautiful jade and jewelry, and more importantly, he likes to make friends with scholars all over the world!

Any talented scholar from a poor family who submits a name card to the Jingwang Mansion can be treated to a meal. Every three years, the top candidates from various places come to Shengjing for the imperial examination, and can even attend the top candidate banquet hosted by Zhao Ao himself. Although it is called the top candidate banquet, the guests are not necessarily only the top candidates from various places. Last month, Mei Shengze once told Adrian Tang about this: "If you submit a name card, you can also attend the top candidate banquet in December."

Prince Xiaoyao Zhao Ao has no real power, but he is still a prince after all.

I didn’t expect that Qianlilou was actually a restaurant under his name.
