Chu Feng appeared quite satisfied and casually asked, "Speaking of graduation, Xiao Lin, which institution did you graduate from?"
"In response to Lord Chu, I graduated from the Second Academy of Licheng in Qingzhou."
"Licheng is a nice place. The Second Academy, I think I've heard of it before. What year did you graduate?"
"In response to Lord Chu, I graduated in the Year Twenty-One of Tianyuan."
"The Year Twenty-One of Tianyuan, which corresponds to the year 1321," Chu Feng murmured to himself before suddenly looking up. "Wait a minute, in the Year Twenty-One of Tianyuan, Licheng was occupied by the Rebel Party. Did you attend school in a Rebel Party-occupied area? The Licheng Red Academy?"
Cold sweat instantly broke out on Lin Yu's forehead.
"Don't be nervous," Chu Feng said with a gentle demeanor. "Even if you did attend a school under the Rebel Party, just admit it. At most, you'll face an organizational investigation."
"No, no, Lord Chu," Lin Yu panicked. "Lord Chu, it's my fault. In my first year at the Second Academy, I fell seriously ill and dropped out after just one semester... At that time, the headmaster of the Second Academy was my uncle. To help me secure a job later on, he specially forged a diploma for me stating I graduated in the Year Twenty-One of Tianyuan. Who would have thought that shortly after, Licheng would be occupied by the Rebel Party? My family and I escaped from Licheng..."
"Later, when I applied to the espionage academy, I used this Fake Diploma. My subordinates were careless; Licheng had already been occupied by the Rebel Party in the Year Twenty-One of Tianyuan..."
Chu Feng patiently listened to his explanation. "I see. Is your uncle still the headmaster now?"
"He has passed away," Lin Yu said, drenched in sweat. "When he issued me the Fake Diploma, he was already gravely ill and prepared it in advance for emergencies..."
"Oh, what a coincidence," Chu Feng actually smiled for a moment. "The only person who could testify for you just happened to die. How convenient—no one can contradict you now."
Lin Yu trembled all over. "Lord Chu, everything I said is true! Think about it; if I really attended a school under the Rebel Party, I would have definitely considered this point when forging my graduation documents. I'm not that foolish!"
It's over.
Lin Yu didn't even realize he had misspoken.
Chu Feng had already considered that if Lin Yu were truly connected to the Rebel Party, he would have taken into account the circumstances at that time when forging his diploma and could have easily created another one.
From the moment Li Zuwei reported this discovery, Chu Feng had basically concluded that the diploma was indeed forged but that Lin Yu had merely forged documents.
He could scold him harshly and let it go.
But Lin Yu shouldn't have said this: "I'm not that foolish!"
This clearly implied that he thought this Royal Confidential Office leader was foolish enough not to understand such a simple principle.
The corner of Chu Feng's mouth twitched slightly.
If Su Han were here at this moment, he would surely capture the meaning behind this action: Chu Feng was angry, and he was upset with Lin Yu. Poor Lin Yu had no idea what he had said wrong.
"I understand," Chu Feng said as he picked up a document to read. "Master Feng from the General Affairs Department has mentioned several times that he is short-staffed. You should go help Master Feng for a few days."
"My Lord Chu, I—"
"Get out!"
Chu Feng's dissatisfaction grew stronger. In the Royal Confidential Office, once he issued an order, no one dared to question it. Yet this Lin Yu actually wanted to argue?
"Yes, yes."
Lin Yu walked out in a daze, still unaware of what exactly he had done wrong.
