"Lord Gu might not know, but the imperial academician of your Imperial College gained merit in quelling the rebellion, so His Majesty send me to bestow a reward, promoting him."
Gu Linuan was shocked and cried out, "Another promotion? There was a eunuch just now who was going to promote him! Why is he getting promoted twice in a row?"
