Thank you very much Teng Kuan for your reward!

"This..." A trace of hesitation flashed across Luo Xin's face, and he finally said, "This is something I wrote in my spare time."

Song Tai's eyes lit up: "But the script?"

"No!" Luo Xin smiled and shook his head, "It's all about learning."

Seeing that Luo Xin didn't intend to show him, Song Tai turned his eyes away, and stopped talking about it, and chatted with Luo Xin.But when he finally got up to leave, he still couldn't hold back and said:
"The ones written by Mr. Luo are not commentaries on the Four Books and Five Classics?"

"no!"

Luo Xin shook his head, and Song Tai's heart was relieved. I was just afraid that Luo Xin would become arrogant after taking the test twice in a row, and wanted to write some annotations to the Four Books, Annotations to the Five Classics and the like.These things cannot be written casually, nor can anyone write them.Don't look at the usual gatherings, everyone can speak freely, but once it is written, the situation will immediately change.

Throughout the thousands of years in China, the circle of literati pays attention to seniority, and the criticism is that literati look down on each other.If you want to write an academic book that is recognized by the literati, you must have the worst status as a candidate. In fact, the status of a candidate is a bit light, and it is also a Jinshi status, and only this status is not enough, and you must have a reputation and qualifications. Otherwise, the book you write will not only not get good results, but will be ridiculed and criticized by the literati circle.

If Luo Xin writes such a book and sells it now as a child, he will be branded as frivolous, overreaching, etc., and his official career will come to an end.He invested in Luo Xin, so he naturally didn't want Luo Xin to go down this road of no return.That's why he didn't hold back and asked. After getting Luo Xin's answer, the tense look on his face relaxed, but what Luo Xin said afterwards almost made him faint.

"What I wrote is not just notes, but more about my analysis of the Four Books and Five Classics and some new viewpoints."

Song Tai's face was pale, his lips were trembling, this Luo Xin was not only arrogant, he was simply crazy beyond bounds, this was going against the sky!Looking at the great Confucians in history, have you ever thought of writing some analysis and new viewpoints as a child?

Isn't the one who can do this a well-educated, well-educated, well-educated and very old man?For example, Cheng Zhu of Neo Confucianism, and Wang Yangming of Xinxue.

You, a 12-year-old boy, want to do what a great Confucianism does?

Isn't this self-destructive?

Song Tai was in a bad mood, and said tremblingly: "Mr. Luo, please forgive Song Tai for speaking bluntly. No matter how good and novel your analysis and opinions are, they are really not suitable for you with Mr. Luo's current status and qualifications. , It will only bring endless troubles to Mr. Luo, why not try these after Mr. Luo is admitted to Jinshi, when the Zhuangyuan Bookstore will not make a penny, it will also publish this book for Mr. Luo."

Luo Xin bowed his head and said solemnly: "Thank you Brother Song for your kind words."

Seeing Luo Xin's actions, Song Tai's nervous mood was relieved. At this time, Luo Xin said with a smile:
"Brother Song, I never thought about publishing what I wrote, at least not now. And..." At this point, a bitter smile appeared on Luo Xin's face:

"Even if I want to publish a book now, I don't know how long it will take if I want to write a relatively mature analysis and point of view, and then I have to change the draft several times. I don't know how many years it will take? I am afraid that I will forget the mature ideas, so I sort them out and study them slowly.”

Song Tai thinks about it too, even if Luo Xin has the idea of ​​publishing a book now, he really doesn't know how many years it will take to write it completely, maybe ten years, maybe decades.After figuring this out, Song Tai not only let go of his heart completely, but also deeply admired Luo Xin.

Although Luo Xin didn't say it, Song Tai already felt that Luo Xin was going to become a great Confucian like Zhu Xi and Wang Yangming, or he wanted to open up his ideas. Otherwise, how could Luo Xin start to sort out his views at the age of 12? ?

12 years old!
Only 12 years old!

With such ideas, such ambitions!At this moment, he seemed to see that Luo Xin had become a generation of Confucian scholars giving lectures on a high platform, and there were densely packed students in the audience.Song Tai showed a respectful look on his face, and bowed his hands and said:

"Mr. Luo has great ambitions and talents. In the future, writing will be your theory. I must find this old man to print and publish books for you."

Song Tai has unconsciously honored Luo Xin.Luo Xin returned the courtesy and said:

"Brother Song is absurd!"

"No, you must agree to this matter." Song Tai insisted with a firm expression.

"Okay!" Luo Xin didn't refuse anymore, and this was what he thought in his heart: "Then thank you Brother Song, but Brother Song has to wait."

"Brother can afford to wait, hahaha..."

The two looked at each other and laughed, and Song Tai left in peace.After sending Song Tai away, Luo Xin returned to the study, picked up the manuscript on the table, and thoughtful eyes appeared in his eyes.

Not bad!

Luo Xin just wanted to publish a book, one or several professional academic books, not novels.Because he knew how difficult the road ahead would be for him, and he might even be in danger of being framed and killed at any time.So he needs a reputation, and it's not a general reputation, but a great reputation, the name of a great Confucian.Only such a reputation will make those who want to harm him feel scruples. After all, this is the golden age of literati. Even the emperor dare not harm a great Confucian easily, let alone Yan Song and Xu Jie?

If they really did this, it would cause a backlash from the entire scholastic community. No one would easily choose the path of harming a great Confucian.

And this is Luo Xin's minimum requirement, only by saving his life can he have the capital to fight.

This idea surfaced after he returned to Shanglin Village from Jinyang Mansion. Originally, he returned to Yanglin County directly from Jinyang Mansion, but there were many guests for several days. At first, Luo Xin talked and laughed patiently. Greeted, but after a few days, it was unbearably disturbed, so he simply returned to Shanglin Village.

After returning to Shanglin Village, a feast is inevitable.As the first double case chief in Shanglin Village, he would be scolded if he didn't treat guests.So Luo Ping held a one-day flowing banquet to entertain the guests.

Luo Xin's grandparents' attitude towards Luo Xin changed again, because the two of them had already heard from Luo Zhi. Said that in two months, in June, Luo Xin has a great possibility to become the same scholar as Luo Zhi, becoming the fourth scholar in Shanglin Village.
