Seeing that Luo Xin was about to speak again, Lu Tingfang waved his hand to stop him and said:
"I analyzed it. As long as your essay is good enough, no matter whether it is Yan Song or Xu Jie, it will not make things difficult for you in the scientific examination. If your essay makes you fail, if you make a fuss, they will risk it." The risk is too great. But it will be difficult for you in your future career. But you have to be prepared, no matter how good your essay is, it is impossible to get the first place in the exam, or even the top three."

"Why?" Lu Tingjiang on the side said puzzledly: "Didn't the eldest brother just say that? Neither Yan Song nor Xu Jie will be embarrassed in the scientific examination."

Lu Tingfang did not answer Lu Tingjiang's words, but looked at Luo Dao: "Xin'er, do you understand?"

Luo Xin pondered for a while, then he suddenly realized, but he still said awkwardly: "Please guide me, teacher."

"The top three are to stay in the capital and enter the Imperial Academy. Yan Song and Xu Jie want to cut off your official career, and they will never let you have a chance to be close to the emperor, so they will definitely not let you enter the top three, and send you far away in the future So they will not obstruct your scientific research, but they will definitely not let you enter the top three. So you can’t say anything, you have already won the Jinshi, so your article must be better than the top three? Since ancient times, there is no ranking First, Wu Wu second. So you can't find any faults at all, and once you express dissatisfaction, scholars all over the world will attack you, saying that you are arrogant.

However, once you become an official, even if you fall into their hands, they have a hundred ways to deal with you, but you have nothing to do.

If you don't look down on you, and you are mediocre, you may still be able to save your life.If you were a prodigy, you would get their attention, and they would always nip the danger in the bud, which meant your life was in danger.Xin'er, do you still want to be an official? "

"If you're not an official, what are you doing?" Luo Xin was a little confused at this moment.

"Study!" Lu Tingfang said in a condensed voice: "With your intelligence and hard work, you may not be able to become a generation of masters in the future. You will gain a place in Shilin."

Luo Xin fell into deep thought, but a sense of injustice gradually grew stronger in his heart.Thinking of what happened to the Lu Mansion, his heart trembled.

Is learning useful?

Wasn't the huge family property of the Lu Manor easily deprived of it?

On what basis?
right!
Do you want to escape for a lifetime?
Not bad!

Not being an official is evasion!

I have already worn it once, so what is there to be afraid of?The big deal is death!
Luo Xin's gaze gradually became firm, he raised his head to look at Lu Tingfang and said, "Teacher, I still want to be an official."

Lu Tingfang's expression didn't change, she just asked seriously: "Have you decided?"

"It's decided!" Luo Xin nodded firmly.

"The road will be hard!"

"I know!"

"Alas..." Lu Tingfang sighed, "After this incident, the teacher can't help you much."

Luo Xin was silent.

"The teacher can only help you as much as possible in terms of knowledge!"

"Thank you teacher!"

Lu Tingfang waved his hands and said, "After all, the teacher implicated you. By the way, you can accept the village in Shanglin Village."

"Teacher, my father and I went to the city together today. Our family has already bought 20 acres of land and [-] acres of wasteland to build a village."

Lu Tingfang and Lu Tingjiang looked at each other, and Lu Tingjiang said, "Xin'er, I'll give you 3 taels..."

"Need not!"

Luo Xin was taken aback, 3 taels!It seems that even if Lu Mansion loses the weaving industry, the camel will die more than the horse.He knew that it was Lu Tingjiang's gratitude to him, and he also knew that it was Lu Tingfang's apology to him.But he can't ask for this money. The teacher's family has just suffered this disaster. It is really impossible to ask for this money at this time, and the family has already started to buy land, so there is no need to accept this gift.

"Xiner!" Lu Tingjiang was a little anxious: "After you have this money, you don't need to worry about living, and you can concentrate on studying. And if you want to be safer in the future, you must become famous. The more you think about your reputation, No matter who wants to harm you in the future, you have to think more about it, and fame also needs money."

Luo Xin was stunned for a moment, Lu Tingjiang's words were very reasonable, he hesitated for a moment, and saluted Lu Tingjiang:

"Second Uncle, Xin'er understands. It's just that Xin'er is still young and has no fame, let alone the opportunity to travel, make friends, and become famous. Why don't you put the money with Second Uncle and wait for Xin'er to use it?" Find the second uncle."

"That's it!" Lu Tingjiang wanted to say more, but Lu Tingfang beside him spoke.Lu Tingjiang had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.

The three talked for a while. Luo Xin knew that Lu Tingjiang was back, and knew that even if the teacher's family lost the weaving industry, their life would be much richer than his own. He didn't even stay overnight. He was a little afraid of the attitude of Lu Tingfang and his brothers, especially Lu Tingjiang's attitude of treating himself as a lifesaver.

Walking out of the gate of the Lu Mansion, looking at the sky, knowing that he couldn't go back, he walked towards the Zhou Mansion, planning to spend the night at Zhou Yu's.

Not long after being welcomed in by Zhou Yu, he was called into Zhou Tingyu's study.

As soon as he entered the study, he saw Zhou Tingyu sitting there in casual clothes, and seeing Luo Xin's still calm expression, a trace of relief appeared in his eyes.This kind of situation happened in his teacher's house, and Luo Xin still didn't show a trace of anxiety, so Zhou Tingyu had to take a look at it, because he didn't know Luo Xin's role in this matter, otherwise he would be shocked.

"Xin'er, is Lu Weng alright?"

Zhou Tingyu naturally didn't know that Lu Tingfang had offended Xu Jie, and thought that since Lu Tingjiang had come out, Lu Tingfang would be fine.However, he was also a little concerned about Lu Tingfang's relationship with Xu Jie in the future.

"Well, it's all right!" Luo Xin nodded slightly.

"I heard that Lu Weng is planning to never serve as an official?"

"Ok!"

"It's not surprising that the Lu family has lost weaving?"

"Yeah!" Luo Xin was not in a good mood, he had a part in weaving!That's it.

After a moment of silence, Zhou Tingyu said in deep thought: "Xin'er, if Lu Weng does this, I'm afraid it will make Mr. Xu look bad!"

There was a sneer in Luo Xin's heart, and he thought that he had already become enemies with old Xu Jie.But with a calm look on his face, he said:
"There is no way to do this. I think Mr. Xu will understand the teacher with his heart."
