After hearing the news, Luo Xin thought carefully about what happened in history. He remembered that a series of very bad things would happen to Ming this year, and Alatan Khan finally opened the peace in August. Great Ming War.After recalling a series of historical events, Luo Xin couldn't help shaking his head sadly. In fact, the Ming Dynasty went downhill from Jiajing to the end of the Ming Dynasty.

Now that the county magistrate had brought back the news from the magistrate, Luo Xin had an excuse to tell Lu Tingfang that there was indeed a change at the border, and left home to go to Lu's mansion.

After five days.

Zhou Tingyu handed over the official documents to the new county magistrate, and then went to the Xuanfu Department of Jinyang Mansion to report, and became a official sixth-rank Xuanfu Department.

After Li Tianhua, the county magistrate of Yangqu County, heard the news, he was so disheartened that he even wrote a letter to resign and wanted to return to his hometown.However, it was dismissed, and Li Tianhua got drunk every day, ignoring political affairs.

this day.

Zhou Yu sent someone to invite Luo Xin and Zhang Xun to Jinyang Mansion for a reunion. Luo Xin and Zhang Xun went there naturally. Even without Zhou Yu's invitation, the two of them were planning to go to Jinyang Mansion in the near future.The adoptive father has been promoted, and as the adoptive son, he always goes to congratulate him.

The two bought some gifts and came to Jinyang Zhou Mansion. After some congratulations, Zhou Tingyu held a banquet to entertain them.During the dinner, Zhou Tingyu looked at Luo Dao:
"Xin'er, there is still more than a month to go before the government test, foster father knows that you have no problem passing the government test, but you still need to review from time to time."

"My child understands!" Luo Xin said respectfully.

Zhou Tingyu looked at Zhang Xun again and said, "Ziyu, after Xiner passes the government examination, you two will take part in the Taoist examination together. How are you preparing?"

Zhang Xun said respectfully: "Father, the boy has prepared well this time, and I dare not say that he won the first place in the Taoist examination, but there should be no problem in passing the examination."

"Okay!" Zhou Tingyu said happily, and then looked at Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu smiled first: "Father, don't worry, I, Brother Xun and Brother Xin will definitely bring you back three Juren this time. "

"Good, good, good! Hahaha..." Zhou Tingyu laughed heartily.

The atmosphere during the banquet was extremely joyous and harmonious. After returning to his home in Yanglin County from Jinyang Mansion, Luo Xin sank his heart into reading.But what he read was not the Four Books and Five Classics.Luo Xin has a clear understanding of himself. He knows that his current knowledge has reached a bottleneck. It is not something that can be improved by studying hard, but that he needs to travel to gain a better understanding of the era of Ming Dynasty and enhance his understanding of this era. Only then can one's own knowledge have the soil for improvement.

So he simply put aside the Four Books and Five Classics, and re-written the military books and war strategies that he had written for his elder brother. fighting.At the same time, he recalled the step-by-step progress of the August war.

In the past, no matter whether it was composing poems by yourself, winning the battle for hydrology, winning the reputation of being the first case, or helping the adoptive father prevent the occurrence of the plague, these were all small achievements. Even if it was spread to the ears of the emperor, the emperor would probably just laugh .At most, I will be slightly interested in him, and forget about it in a few days.That's why Luo Xin gave up the achievements of preventing the plague to Zhou Zhi County.

However, this battle is different.

This is not only because Alatan Khan has always been Daming's nightmare, the nightmare of Emperor Jiajing, but also because this year is a disaster year for Daming. A year that God will remember deeply.If Luo Xin can stand out in this year, he will definitely be remembered by Emperor Jiajing.At that time, even Yan Dang and Xu Dang would have difficulty stopping themselves.Therefore, while Luo Xin recalled all the records of the war between Ming Dynasty and Mongolia in detail, he actually had a little hope in his heart.

What should come will come after all!
On the third day of March in the 40th year of Jiajing, Huang Qijian from Guangdong led thousands of Hui and Chaoshan people to attack Haifeng, Jieshi, Guishan and other counties. shock.

Zhou Yu quickly sent someone to write the news in detail into a letter, and sent someone to send it to Luo Xin immediately.Luo Xin knew that his own level determined that his news was blocked, but now Zhou Tingyu, who was already the secretary of Jinyang Xuanfu, was able to receive all kinds of news that happened in Daming.So when I went to Jinyang to celebrate Zhou Tingyu last time, I asked Zhou Yu to inform him of the news.

In addition to this news, the letter also contains a summary of some things that happened before.

The battle of Annan and the pacification of the civil uprising in Yazhou, Zuodu censor who praised his painting skills, and the crown prince Shaobao Zhou Yan died in office on February 40, Jiajing 63, at the age of [-], gifted to the prince Taibao, posthumously Jiansu .

Wang Bangrui, Minister of the Ministry of War who once fought against Alatan Khan, died in office on December 40, 77th year of Jiajing at the age of [-].

In February of the 40th year of Jiajing, Wu Shan, who was upright and did not flatter the rich and powerful, was accused by Emperor Jiajing of selling his name because of the solar eclipse.On March [-]th, he was forced to live idle, and people were not fair.

A generation of famous prince Taibao, Xu Lun, the governor of Ji, Liao, and Baoding military affairs, was impeached by Zheng Mao and others under Yan Song's instructions for invading the army.

The border is corrupt, the officials of the anti-strict party in the center are dying, and those who are dismissed from office are not good news, but Xu Jie's party has disappeared and dormant.

After receiving the news, Luo Xin shook his head sadly after reading the letter, and threw the letter on the table.Looking out the window in a daze for a while, he smiled bitterly and said:

"This is just the beginning!"

"Ta Tata..."

Footsteps came from outside the door, and then Die'er and Chunhua's voices were heard: "Meet the eldest son."

Luo Qing's voice sounded: "Where's little brother?"

"Young master is in the study."

The servants of the Luo family called Luo Xin very strangely. It stands to reason that Luo Xin should be called the second son, but they all called Luo Xin the son.In their hearts, Luo Xin is the real master of the family.This point, Luo Xin's parents and elder brother all know this, and also acquiesced to this title.

Luo Qing gave a "hmm" and walked towards the study. At this time, Lu Daqing had already greeted him from the outside of the study. He knew that Luo Xin and Luo Qing were very close, so he trotted out and said:
"Meet the eldest son!"

"Well, pour me a cup of tea." Luo Xin walked into the study while talking.Luo Xin has already greeted him from the inner room: "Brother."

"Let me drink a glass of water first, I'm dying of thirst."
