Number One Scholar

Zhuangyuan Lang

"By day, a country bumpkin; by night, I step into the Emperor's Hall."

"The Emperor isn't in the hall; he sleeps in the Leopard Room every day."

Tang Yin: My godfather saved me.

Wang Shouren: If he hadn't saved me, I would have been taken out by the Jinyiwei halfway through.

Yang Shen: If one jade exists, why must there be another? I think he stole my top scholar title, and even stole my wife...

Yan Song: My godfather taught me how to be an official and saved my official career.

Zhu Shou: Godfather, save me. I can't swim.
