Madam Liu's apology

"Look at the Royal Academy. Only the Zhou Dynasty's descendants who don't have to inherit their family's title or those who can't pass the imperial examination can enter. However, it was different for the princes and princesses of other countries. All the princes who could come to the great Zhou's western lands were going to inherit the throne. My father has also arranged for people from the Ministry of Justice to teach them the law. Of course, not only to the princes and princesses of the western lands, but also to the descendants of the great Zhou."

"No matter where we are, there's no order without rules. Therefore, even if the descendants of the great Zhou did not have to inherit the title of nobility or participate in the Imperial examinations, they still had to learn. Most of the people who go in are hedonistic sons of rich parents." Gu Xin told Zheng Qiu about the Royal Academy.
