While Zhang Xun and Luo Xin stopped arguing for a while, Zhou Yun said in a low voice.Zhang Xun and Luo Xin were taken aback.Marrying brothers of the opposite sex was not only done by warriors in the Ming Dynasty, it also happened among literati from time to time.In just an instant, Luo Xin remembered a Peking opera "Four Scholars" that he had seen in his previous life.

This "Four Scholars" is talking about the things of this era.

During the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, Mao Peng, Tian Lun, Gu Du, and Liu Ti, Xinke Scholars, left Beijing to serve as officials.Become brothers of the opposite sex, drink together, encourage each other, and refrain from breaking the law and dereliction of duty after taking office, in order to repay the merit of Hai Rui's recommendation.At that time, Yao Tingchun's wife, Tian Shi, in Shangcai County, Henan Province, conspired to get property and poisoned her husband's younger brother Yao Tingmei to death.Hearing Suzhen's crying, Yang Chun took pity on what happened to her, tore up her life contract, and sued on her behalf.

During a private visit by Mao Peng, he wrote the pleadings and asked to go to Xinyang Prefecture to appeal.Yang Suzhen was separated from Yang Chun, met a villain, and was rescued by the dismissed clerk Song Shijie. She considered her righteous daughter and brought her to the state government to sue.Tian forced her younger brother to patrol the joints of Tian Lundai.Tian wrote a pleading letter to Gu Shushu, the magistrate of Xinyang, and sent 300 taels of silver as a bribe.

Tian's servant happened to be staying in Song Shijie's store. Song peeked at the letter and found that it was related to the righteous daughter Yang Suzhen.After Gu Du read the letter, he released the defendant favorably, and when Yang Suzhen was imprisoned, Song went to the court to question him, but was blasted out of the court after being scolded.When he met Tian Chun, Yang Chun asked Mao Peng to file a complaint. Mao Peng accepted the complaint and Song Shijie testified.

Luo Xin was a little distracted, wondering if Mao Peng, Tian Lun, Gu Du, and Liu Ti had become Jinshi, or had they left Beijing to become officials?
He doesn't know if the era of Daming will change because of his arrival, let alone if the three of them become brothers of the opposite sex, will it happen like what happened between Mao Peng, Tian Lun, Gu Du, and Liu Ti? matter.

Luo Xin was still in a daze, but Zhang Xun came to his senses.He also agrees with Zhou Yu in his heart.Zhou Yugui is the son of the county magistrate, and being able to make friends with the two of them proves his character. What's more, he also admires Zhou Yu's knowledge very much, so he immediately whispered:

"Dare to obey!"

After saying that, Zhou Yu and Zhang Xun looked at Luo Xin.Don't think that Luo Xin really belongs to a poor family compared with the two of them, but there is a feeling in the hearts of the two of them that Luo Xin's future achievements will definitely surpass them.Therefore, the two of them were also very nervous at this time.

On the one hand, if Luo Xin refuses, they will lose a confidant on the road of life exploration, and on the other hand, they will also lose face.

Hearing Zhang Xun's words, Luo Xin woke up from his trance.He knew that he couldn't hesitate at this time, once he hesitated, he would offend people, and literati are the most honorable.What's more, he also respects Zhang Xun and Zhou Yu's moral character very much.Not to mention Zhang Xun, his own savior, and Zhou Yu being able to sleep with him and respecting his parents, why should he hesitate about such a character?
"Dare not to obey..."

Speaking of this, Luo Xin suddenly thought of his elder brother. He didn't want his elder brother to just be a farmer all his life, and he also understood his elder brother's heart.Don't look at the simple and honest appearance of the elder brother, but he has a very stubborn temper.Since he already had the seeds of joining the army and becoming a general in his heart, he would never give up.If the elder brother is also drawn into the sworn brotherhood, it will be a lot easier for the future elder brother.

but……

Are Zhou Yu and Zhang Xun willing to sworn brotherhood?
Zhou Yu and Zhang Xun were overjoyed when they heard Luo Xin agree, but then saw the hesitation on Luo Xin's face.Not to mention Zhou Yu, even Zhang Xun felt a bit of displeasure in his heart.

Did we humiliate you by sworn oath with you?Are we that miserable?

"The two elder brothers..." Luo Xin lowered his voice and said, "I wonder if my elder brother can be counted as one?"

Zhou Yu and Zhang Xun felt relieved, and only then did they understand the reason for Luo Xin's hesitation.

Yes!

Both of them are scholars, and if Luo Xin asked them to sworn sworn brothers with an illiterate farmer, it would be disrespectful to them both.Zhang Xun looked at Zhou Yu, he had already accepted Luo Qing in his heart, after all, he and Luo Qing had grown up playing together, and they still had feelings for each other.Zhou Yu was originally an unruly person. Although Luo Qing was only a farmer, he valued Luo Xin, so he nodded generously and said:

"this is necessary!"

"Very good!" Zhang Xun also nodded in response.

Luo was overjoyed in his confidence. He knew that Zhou Yu and Zhang Xun had agreed, so they valued him very much.But he didn't want his elder brother to be looked down upon by Zhou Yu and Zhang Xun, so he said:
"My eldest brother won't always be a farmer."

"Oh?" Zhou Yu's eyes lit up, and he thought to himself, "Yes! Luo Xin is such a child prodigy, so Luo Qing must be smart too. If Luo Qing is willing to study, he must have a good future."

"Young brother also wants to enroll?"

Luo Xin glanced at Zhou Yu, couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile and said, "No, my elder brother has his own ambitions."

This time it was Zhang Xun's turn to brighten his eyes and ask, "What is the ambition of Young Brother?"

"He wants to join the army, become a general, and even become a marquis!"

Zhou Yu and Zhang Xun's expressions darkened, so what if a warrior sits on the general?So what about Fenghou?
Seeing the expressions of the two of them, Luo Xin couldn't help sighing softly.This is the sorrow of Ming Dynasty. The status of literati has been so high that they have looked down on warriors from the bottom of their hearts. It is precisely because of this trend of thought that Ming finally fell, and so did Song Dynasty.

Hearing Luo Xin's sigh, Zhou Yu and Zhang Xun misunderstood Luo Xin's meaning, and knowing that their expressions just now hurt Luo Xin's face, they said in a low voice:
"Brother Xin, we didn't mean that..."

"No!"

Luo Xin shook his head lightly. He felt that a seed should be planted for Zhou Yu and Zhang Xun. Although this seed may not be able to thrive, they may not be able to influence others and change Daming, but this is a principle of life. Whoever is lowered by whom, warriors are not inferior to literati.On the contrary, it is all warriors who open up frontiers and protect the country.A country that doesn't know how to respect warriors will eventually be knocked out by the enemy and perish.

"It's because you don't understand why I sigh!"

Zhou Yu and Zhang Xun were taken aback for a moment, but Zhang Xun and Luo Xin were used to each other, so they asked directly, "Then what do you mean?"

Luo Xin pondered for a moment, organized his thoughts and said, "Which dynasty do you yearn for?"
