"Borrowing is naturally not as reliable as relying on yourself, but when you have nowhere else to turn, or when your opponent is too powerful, you should learn to assess the situation; being stubborn and having your own principles is good, but you also need to learn to be flexible..."
Old Xu talked to Wan Qiqi about her personality for a long time, as if he were giving her a private lesson.
Chen Yongnian sat beside him and listened, finding it very helpful.
After Mr. Xu finished talking to Wan Qiqi, Wan Qiqi had almost finished eating the snacks she had brought.
In the end, Wan Qiqi finally remembered that this was Wan Ziyan's teacher, and he must know more about Wen Ziyan than others.
Wan Qiqi asked, "Teacher, how is my brother? How confident is he in the palace examination?"
Old Xu seemed to hesitate for a moment, stroking his long beard as he said, "He hasn't regressed over the years, but some of his policy essays are too indecisive; if he can cater to the Emperor's ideas in the palace examination, he should be able to easily be in the top three."

Her answer was simple, but also very difficult to follow.
In some positions, it's just too difficult to move up.
Some people spend their entire lives without being able to escape that fate.
But for Wan Qiqi, she believed that Wan Ziyan was special. Even if he was stuck in the mud, he could still climb out cleanly and create a world of his own.
Just like Wan Qiqi now, she believes she will create her own world.
Even though she was a woman, an insignificant speck of dust among the masses, she still persisted in her beliefs.
