"Young Master Zhou and your lord are in the study!"

"Please inform me that Luo Xin is visiting."

"Yes, please follow the villain!"

The yamen servant naturally knew Luo Xin, so he led Luo Xin to the study of Zhouzhi County, first asked Luo Xin to stop, and then stepped forward to knock on the door and said:

"My lord, Mr. Luo Xin Luo is here to visit."

"Squeak..." The door opened, Zhou Yu stepped out, came to Luo Xin and held his hand and said, "We parted yesterday, brother Xin is here today, but do you want to be a brother?"

"Today, I went to the city with my father and came to visit Brother Hao De."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu looked behind Luo Xin: "Where's Uncle?"

"My father and elder brother are working in the city."

"Oh! Come in, I happen to have something to discuss with you!"

Zhou Yu pulled Luo Xin into the study, and closed the door behind his back.The yamen servant has left.Inside the door, Luo Xin bowed respectfully to Zhou Zhi County.

"Xin'er pays homage to foster father!"

Zhou Zhixian stood up from the chair, went around the table and came to Luo Xin, helped Luo Xin up himself, and said kindly:

"For the first time, the adoptive father accepted your great gift, and we will be a family from now on, there is no need to be like this."

"Yes, adoptive father!" Luo Xin stood with his hands down.

"Come on, sit down! I happen to have something to discuss with you."

Luo Xin said, "Xin'er is terrified!"

Zhou Zhixian smiled with his beard in his arms, motioned for Luo Xin and Zhou Yu to sit down, and the two sat opposite Zhou Zhixian.Zhou Zhixian looked at Luo Dao:
"Are you here today for something?"

"Well, it can be regarded as something." Luo Xin said softly.

"What's the matter?"

"I just want to ask about the three of Yu Bin, my mother is a little scared." Luo Xin said softly.

"This matter!" Zhou Zhixian said relaxedly: "Don't worry, I will send them three thousand miles."

Luo Xin felt relieved when he heard that, the three of Yu Bin were dispatched for three thousand miles, Yu Dianshi secretly deposed those three, even if they survived, they would not be able to pose any threat to his family.

"Thank you foster father!" Luo Xin saluted respectfully.

Zhou Zhixian waved his hand and said: "This is a normal case, and they have not been wronged. Xin'er, you came here today, and I happened to have something to discuss with you."

Luo Xin's expression was slightly taken aback, what kind of child prodigy he was, he was just a nine-year-old child, a county parent official, what would he discuss with him?
This... I think too highly of myself, right?

So, Luo Xin hurriedly stood up and said, "Xin'er is terrified!"

"sit!"

Zhou Zhixian signaled Luo Xin to sit down, and then said gently: "I heard from Hao De that you came up with the method of threading nine holes?"

"It's my big brother..."

Luo Xin hastily argued.But then seeing Zhou Zhixian's eyes full of deep meaning, he knew that Zhou Yu could not hide his careful thoughts from Zhou Yu, but Zhou Zhixian could not.But he also made up his mind that this matter cannot be admitted.

Seeing Luo Xin's appearance, Zhou Zhixian smiled gently and stopped mentioning it.At the same time, I have more confidence in Luo Xin. With such a mature mind, I can discuss with him.

"Xin'er, the way you Shanglin Village and Xialin Village solved the water dispute is very good, and it is worth learning from the whole county."

"This is the solution that the village chief and the others came up with." Luo Xin said hastily.

"Hehe..." Zhou Zhixian smiled gently and said, "Did you know that our Yanglin County and the neighboring county Yangqu County also have water disputes?"

Luo Xin glanced at Zhou Yu, then shook his head and said, "I heard something from my elder brother."

Luo Xin really didn't know, he had only been in Daming for two years, and he really hadn't heard of this matter.After listening to Zhou Yu's simple words, Zhou Zhixian took a look at his son, and Zhou Yu explained in detail the matter of the water dispute between the two counties.Luo Xin really didn't expect that the two counties would fight so fiercely, the previous county magistrate was dismissed because of this incident, that's why Zhou County magistrate came to Yanglin County.At this time, he already understood the meaning of Zhou Zhixian in his heart, so he said softly:

"What does the foster father mean by turning the fighting between the two counties into a literary fight?"

"Not bad! Does Xin'er think it's feasible?"

Luo Xin thought for a while and said, "It's possible! The magistrate of Yangqu County must also have a headache for the water dispute between the two counties. As long as the foster father can talk to him, he will be happy to do it."

Zhou Zhixian then nodded and said: "Well, I will ask Zhou Zhixian to have a talk."

"only……"

Luo Xin was a little hesitant, he was hesitant to make a proposal at the age of nine years, would it make Zhou Zhixian feel that he was too evil?

However, if the matter is not done well without reminders, it would be bad if the two counties had an armed fight and Zhouzhi County was dismissed from office.After all, Zhou Zhixian is his adoptive father now, the more stable the position of Zhou Zhixian, the more prosperous his official career, the better for him.

"Just what?" Zhou Zhixian raised his eyebrows.

"It's just that it's not very good from top to bottom, and it may not be able to achieve the ideal goal."

Zhou Zhixian gently stroked his beard, his eyes lit up: "What does Xin'er mean?"

"It's better to start from the bottom up!"

"Crack!" Zhixian Zhou patted the armrest of the chair and said, "That's right. It should be those students, scholars and juren who petitioned, and then Li Zhixian and I followed the trend. I will arrange a few students from the county school to run this matter."

"How does foster father work?"

"Naturally let those scholars take the initiative to put forward the request for literary struggle."

"But how many of those scholars are willing to stand out? They also know very well in their hearts that they are not sure of winning. If they lose, they will be sinners in the county. And no matter which county loses, will the people agree with this result? If If you don’t agree, there will still be fighting.”

The magistrate of Zhou frowned, and Luo Xin shook his head in secret. In ancient times, there were not magistrates without abilities, but most of them were mediocre people, and their flexibility was not strong.

"Xin'er, just tell me what you can do, there are no outsiders here."

Zhou Zhixian originally just discussed with Luo Xin casually, but he didn't expect Luo Xin to ask so many questions.Regardless of whether Luo Xin can solve these problems, just being able to raise them is enough to prove Luo Xin's intelligence...

Do not!
This is no longer a question of intelligence, but of wisdom.A thought could not help appearing in his mind, could it be that Lu Tingfang not only lent Luo Xinshu, but also taught him how to be an official?

It must be so!

Otherwise, no matter how smart a child is, it is impossible to have such experience in dealing with things.This made him raise Luo Xin's position in his heart a lot, and he really started to pay attention to Luo Xin.

"True bottom-up!"

"Really from bottom to top?" A trace of confusion appeared in Zhou Zhixian's eyes.

"It should be initiated by the people first, it can be...anger...for example... accusations from the people."

"Accuse?"

"Yes! Accusation!" Luo Xin's train of thought gradually became clear: "You can first ask a few storytellers to tell about the tragic situation of the water dispute between the two counties, criticize the uselessness of the scholars in this county, and look at the fathers and villagers in this county. What kind of sage books are you reading when you are indifferent to the casualties in the fighting?

This should cause the people to rage, and they will target the scholars in this county.At this time, invite one or two students to raise their arms and shout, and it will form a force of scholars. "
