Everyone's eyes lit up: "No, you mean we are a force of our own?"

"Not bad! But this does not prevent us from cooperating with Gao Gong and Xu Jie. As long as it is beneficial to the country and the people, we can join hands with them. If Xu Jie is right, we will support Xu Jie. Gao Gong is right , we support Gao Gong. Everything is based on the interests of the world.”

"Then... haven't we become fools on the wall?" Zhang Xun said with some hesitation.

"It's different!" Luo Xin said with a smile: "The grass on the wall refers to people who have no position, and whoever is strong will fall to whomever is stronger. And whichever side we are right, we support whichever side. This will leave Gao Gong and Xu Jie alone. The next impression is that we are right about things and not people, we stand straight and act right.”

"That's right, since ancient times evil has never prevailed over good." Liu Xiuwen said passionately.

"However, we can't go straight. The court is not as peaceful as the army, and it is full of traps." Luo Xin sighed:

"So, we still have to plan. That's why I agreed to Xu Luqing. But I only agreed to join forces with Xu Jie, but I didn't say not to join forces with Gao Gong. As for him treating me as an attachment to the Xu family, that's his own fault." Passionate, it has nothing to do with me."

"Hahaha……"

Everyone burst into laughter.

On the way from Yanglin County to the capital, Xu Luqing sat in the carriage with a smile on his lips.

"This Luo Xin is really not simple! He really is not a pure Confucian, and he almost forgot that he is still a famous general. It is impossible for such a person to be attached to anyone. When you go back, you must tell your father that you must do everything possible to suppress him. , can’t give him a chance to break out.”

Zhou Yu and the others lived in Luo Mansion for a few more days. Seeing that the Chinese New Year was not far away, they all bid farewell and went home to worship their ancestors for the Chinese New Year.After the fifteenth day, he set off for the capital to prepare for the Chunwei test.

As the New Year approaches, there have been several heavy snowfalls, and the whole north is completely white, like a kingdom of ice and snow.

Worship ancestors, vigil, and New Year greetings.

Luo Xin is 15 years old, and he is an adult!

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Luo Xin went to the Lu residence to pay New Year greetings to his teacher.Lu Tingfang told him that when he went to the capital after the fifteenth day, he didn't need to stay in an inn. The Lu family had a house in the capital, and Lu Yuan knew where it was. When he was waiting to go to the capital for the exam, he could just take Lu Yuan there.

Luo Xin nodded naturally, and then invited Teacher Shiwu to go to Jinyang to watch the lanterns. Lu Tingfang laughed and scolded:

"You brat, why did you invite me to see the lamp? Did you want to go with Dai'er?"

Luo Xin smiled and said nothing, Lu Tingfang laughed and said: "The teacher is getting old, and it's freezing here, so I won't go. Come and pick up Dai'er when the time comes."

Luo Xin was overjoyed, and left the teacher's study, then ran to Lu Rudai's embroidery building, and after making an appointment with Lu Rudai, he left the Lu residence.

Luo Xin is also looking forward to the [-]th Lantern Festival. He has been in Daming for so long, but he has never seen a Lantern Festival.In the past, he was young, and there were only a few people in the village, so he couldn't reflect the magnificence of the Lantern Festival, let alone Shanglin Village, even Yanglin County.

However, Jinyang Mansion is different!

Jinyang Mansion is a large state capital in the north, and the [-]th Lantern Festival is also very famous in the north. On that day, no matter if it is a temple, a Taoist temple, a gentry, a government office, or a poor family, every household will hang lanterns outside the door. Households only hang one lantern, those big households hang many lanterns, and there are lantern riddles.

In short, there is no household that does not hang lanterns, and these lanterns are not sold, but made by themselves.Small households make lanterns by hand for celebration and blessing.And the large households are not limited to these, there will be competition among the large households, who has the most lanterns, whose lanterns are strange and beautiful!
This year the north is particularly festive, and the people are also very happy, because Alatan Khan is dead, and there should be no fighting at the northern border for a long time to come.It's definitely something to celebrate.Therefore, the government not only issued a task for each yamen to make their own lanterns, but also paid for the selection of the best lanterns in Jinyang Mansion this year as a bonus.Therefore, before the [-]th day of this year, the Lantern Festival has already been hyped up, and every household is making lanterns.One can imagine what the entire Jinyang Mansion will look like by the fifteenth day.

Luo Qing and Luo Sheng also got their annual leave and returned home. At this time, the two men were using wooden sticks to build the lantern frame.Luo Zhi stood aside with a nose and a face, reprimanding Luo Qing and Luo Sheng from time to time.It turned out that Luo Heng's family was making lanterns. Luo Sheng disliked Luo Zhi's painting of lanterns, saying that Luo Xin's paintings were good. Luo Qing boasted in front of him more than once, and then yelled to go to Luo Xin's Zhuangzi Inside make lanterns together.Luo Zhi had also heard that Luo Xin's paintings were unique, so he followed him to see them, but he was looked down upon by his two nephews, so he didn't look good and stood aside to criticize.

Luo Qing and Luo Sheng didn't talk, they were just busy there, Luo Heng didn't need a few lanterns, but Luo Xin's family is big, Luo Ping is now living the life of a rich man, so he wants to make a fuss, Tell Luo Xin that it is best to have 36 [-] lanterns for his home.So, with a few days before the fifteenth day, Luo Sheng and Luo Qing got busy.Luo Zhi's son and Luo Ye's daughter circled around Luo Qing and Luo Sheng, watching the two brothers busy there with curiosity.Later, Luo Ye and Luo Heng also ran over to help, grandma, aunt and aunt accompanied Luo Xin's mother sitting in the main room chatting, the whole village was full of laughter.

Luo Xin was also busy in the room, he was making lamp noodles, Chun Hua and Die Er led a few maidservants to help, in fact, they just helped pass a brush, grind a dye, they all came to watch Luo Xin draw!

Great Confucian painting!
Do other people have the good fortune to see the process of Daru painting with his own hands?

All the maids were staring at Luo Xin. Lu Daqing wanted to squeeze in to have a look, but a few maids stepped on Lu Daqing's feet, and she pinched Lu Daqing to push Lu Daqing out.

Luo Xin first sketched the picture with charcoal, and then painted it. All kinds of lifelike lamp faces appeared in front of the maids, and the maids couldn't help but marvel and look at Luo Xin with admiration. His face was flushed and his eyes were like water.

After a few days of busy work, on the thirteenth day of the first lunar month, all the lanterns were finished.I handed over the work of hanging the lanterns to the elders. On the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, Luo Xin, Luo Qing, Luo Sheng, Luo Zhi and Zhang Xun rode to Yanglin County.
