Ye Zhiqiu knew that Gu Chengyu did good deeds without leaving his name and never mentioned it in front of him in order to save his own face. However, if he kept pretending not to know, it would be avoiding the issue, which is a matter of character.
"It's just a small favor to you, but it's a big help to me." Ye Zhiqiu saw that Gu Chengyu didn't want to talk about it further, so he kept this favor in his heart and looked for an opportunity to repay it later.
When the carriage reached the Imperial Palace, Gu Chengyu and Ye Zhiqiu passed by the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Hospital. As they were nearing the Hanlin Academy, they ran into Min Feng and Huang Junheng.
Min Feng heard the footsteps, looked back, and saw a boy in a bright red round-collared robe with a heron embroidered on the chest. Who else could it be but Gu Chengyu? The Secondary Sixth Rank official uniform looked very dignified on Gu Chengyu.
