But Xie Jian's character has already become a little crooked, as can be seen from his plotting against the original owner. It can still be remedied now, isn't it?
"Headmaster, what this young lady said does make some sense." said the old man on the side.
The headmaster smiled.
Xie Jian stared at Chen Heng in a daze.
"These people, when others belittle, slander, and hurt us, we tolerate it, tolerate it, and avoid it. This makes others think we can bully them, but they don't realize that it is their own low character and low moral character." Seeing that the headmaster didn't seem angry, Chen Heng said, "During the trial of Xie Quan, the county magistrate, Lord Lu, said that many people in ancient and modern times have accumulated virtue. The best character in the world, in the final analysis, is cultivated through reading. I believe that the students of Nanyi College have read so many books of sages, and their character and moral character will not disappoint."
The headmaster smiled faintly, looking past Chen Heng to a place not far away: "Lu Yuan (Lu Ji'an's courtesy name), your words really stumped me."
When everyone looked back, they saw the county magistrate Lu Ji'an walking towards them. He had a tall and straight figure wearing a dark green long gown, and he looked gentle and handsome like the green mountains.
"Lord Lu." After a round of greetings.
Lu Ji'an nodded to the three of them, then walked up to the headmaster and the old man and bowed, "Master, this is Eunuch Wang."
The word "eunuch" shocked Shen Heng so much that she fainted for a while. This old man turned out to be a eunuch. Could it be that Xie Min was really the eunuch Lianhua in history?
No one knows where this eunuch Lotus came from or how he entered the palace. History only talks about his merits and demerits as well as his extremely high academic attainments, and no one has ever linked him with the treacherous prime minister.
Xie Jianyi's eyes moved. Someone from the palace?
"You get up first." The dean said to Xia and Shen Hengyu.
"Nanqi Academy has cultivated many talented people for the local area and the imperial court. It is undoubtedly a holy place for learning. Shen is not wrong about this." Lu Ji'an smiled. "Master, you feel embarrassed. Do you disagree with this statement?"
Xie Jian was surprised. Lu Ji'an was not from this county, but he was actually the principal's student. Had he studied in the academy before?
"Look at my student, he's actually trying to trick his teacher." The headmaster stroked his white beard and smiled. "How's the progress on the mountain? Let's go take a look."
The headmaster and his two companions walked towards a corner pavilion. Xie Min was also pulled along by the old man. In addition, although the headmaster did not agree with Xie Jian's request, he did not refuse it either. Chen Heng, Xia Shi, and Xie Jian were bound to follow him.
Only then did I discover that there was a small door behind the corner pavilion, and outside the door was a winding path towards the mountain.
"I didn't expect that the old man actually likes Min'er so much. It would be great if the old man could say a few good words for us to the headmaster." Xia was looking forward to it.
Xie Jian looked at Chen Heng strangely. Her expression was fine just now, but why was it so ugly now? She kept staring at the eunuch Wang from time to time. Was there something wrong?
Chen Heng was filled with doubts. If Eunuch Lianhua was really Min'er, why would he, with such a good family background, be castrated and enter the palace? How did Xie Jian ultimately become corrupted? Could something major happen to the Xie family?
Soon, a group of people reached the top of the mountain.
It is said to be the top of a mountain, but in fact it is a large flat land. Many craftsmen are building houses. Three houses have been built and the outline of the garden has appeared. There are also stonemasons carving rockery nearby.
