After class that day, Lin Yanchao went to Jiang to ask for leave, saying that he wanted to take leave for a long time, so he saved even the monthly exam for county school. He only came back to take the exam after the annual exam hosted by Xuedao.

The span of asking for leave was a bit large. Teacher Jiang hesitated for a while, but in view of Lin Yanchao's ten taels of silver and Master Shen's face, he finally gave it a fake.

After returning from the county school, Lin Yanchao was completely free and no longer subject to the daily dots and could do his own thing as he pleased.

At night, Master Chen went to Lin Yanchao's house in person.

Regarding Mr. Chen who repeatedly asked for help, Lin Yanchao was very considerate and asked him to go to the hall and make tea for him personally.

Master Chen drank a tea ceremony: "You are not in the county school, but your studies cannot be abandoned. There are two academies in the provincial capital. The mountain chief and I have a good relationship. One is Fengchi Academy, which is located in Sanmufang, East Street, and the other is Yangzheng Academy. Both are academies that are specialized in professors and students in the provincial capital. They hired juren and even retired to serve as the head of Langshan.

"When you go here to study, it is better than the provincial school. Most of the disciples are students in the rank of the rank of Yangzheng Academy. I know that you are a student of the county school or the second in the college entrance examination. I am willing to give you one or two silver dollars a month to study at his academy.

Lin Yanchao asked, "Will you still go home after going to the academy? Is your homework tight?"

"It's not OK to go home, but you will also be given a day off for a month. As for homework, it's needless to say, how are you at Lianjiang Academy and Yangzheng Academy? Both mountain chiefs are Shengyi's sincere hearts. If you pass the imperial examination in the future, you will become famous for their academy."

Lin Yanchao did not agree immediately and said with a smile: "Thank you, Master Chen, I'll take a look."

Master Chen heard Lin Yanchao's polite rejection and said immediately: "My friend, no. I want to call you old friend."

Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "I dare not, in front of Master Shen, I always hold the courtesy of my juniors."

Master Chen smiled and said, "It's up to you, but you don't go to the county school or the academy. How do you study? Being a scholar is just the beginning of fame and fortune. Don't indulge it. Besides, Tao Tixue still appreciates you. Isn't it good for you to focus on the annual exam and the academic exam during his three years?"

Lin Yanchao did not refute, but nodded and said, "Master Chen is very honest."

Master Chen lowered his voice and said, "If you can open up the Taoti School, you can even save the provincial examination and directly guarantee you to join the Southern Supervisory Commission."

After hearing what Master Chen said, Lin Yanchao asked, "Master Chen is saying that. Choose tribute?"

"That's right." Master Chen saw that Lin Yanchao had already understood, and nodded with relief.

Choosing tribute is a quota that every province has in the hands of the Taoist teachings. As long as the school officials nodded, students who study in county school schools, regardless of the food and food, can all be tributed to the Imperial College. However, there are very few quotas for choosing tribute, and there are only a few in a province.

Master Chen said, "Maybe you think it's a bit difficult to choose a tribute, so next year's examination should be no problem. With Taotixue's appreciation for you, you can at least get the relief amount for the provincial examination next year. Even if the provincial examination is not good, you still have the opportunity to be the second-in-commissioned deputy, and you can still be tributed to the Imperial College."

For scholars, whether they pass the imperial examination or enter the prison, they will be successful. In the future, whether they pass the imperial examination or not, they will be qualified to be an official.

Master Chen's words were all his own thoughts. After Lin Yanchao thanked him, he had other plans in his heart.

Getting up early that day, Lin Yanchao was studying in the small building. Someone knocked on the door and said that someone came from Lianpu Lin Mansion.

Lin Yanchao went downstairs, and came as a servant, and said in person: "This is Mr. Lin. Our second master has already served as the prefect of Suzhou. In addition to sending a letter from his family, there is another signal to send a villain to his husband."

After saying that, he handed him a big letter cover of about a foot.

Lin Yanchao heard that it was Lin Yan who wrote to him, so he was very happy. He immediately took two cents of silver and put them in the other party's hand and said, "I'm in trouble."

The servant hurriedly said, "How dare you help me with such a generous gift? I can't do it."

Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "What's this? I will write a reply letter to the mansion tomorrow. Please forward it to you guys."

Seeing Lin Yanchao's favor, the servant said, "How dare you bother me? I'll just come to pick it up tomorrow." He said that.

When he got upstairs, Lin Yanchao took out the letter knife and took out the letter.

I was just waiting for the tide. When I wrote this letter, I was the teacher who was riding a boat from Hangzhou. I thought that after more than a month, you must have already won the toad palace and won the osmanthus, so I wrote to congratulate you...

Lin Yanchao couldn't help but smile when he saw this. The letter was written by Lin Qian in July. There was still one month before the examination. He was very confident that his examination must be Chinese. Oh, by the way, he knew that he was the head of the examination in the palace.

Lin Yanchao continued to read with the letter. Lin Yan first recalled the scene when the master and apprentice taught in the Lin Mansion in the past, and then he talked to Lin Yanchao earnestly.

The general idea is that you are born in a humble background. If you don’t rise up, you will have to be buried among the wild grass. As a teacher, you must know that you have geniuses, and you must be proud and complacent if you are a student. You should continue to learn and study hard. You can be strong and unremitting. You should make a great contribution to the autumn examination.

This warning was the same as Master Shen thought at the beginning. He was afraid that he would slack off after he got a student, so he quickly wrote a letter to motivate himself. Thinking that Lin Yanqiu still did not forget to write a letter to him on his way to his post, and he was sure of the time on the road, Lin Yanchao couldn't help but sigh, "The teacher's kindness is like a mountain!"

Then Lin Feng said again, but the school style in the county middle school is very bad. You can ask my brother for his face to ask Jiang Zhizhi for leave, and then study at home alone.

The following are worried that Lin Yanchao would not be able to read, so he taught himself how to read.

Lin Yanqiu must first be careful of being alone. Be careful of being alone. First, be calm. Laozi and Zhuangzi call it quiet, Buddhism call it quiet, Cheng Yi called it quiet, Zhu Xi called it quiet, and Wang Yangming, who created the study of mind, also called it quiet. Each school and the path of each end, and the word "quiet" is connected through various methods.

Secondly, you must be respectful. When reading, you must be as if you are walking on thin ice and trembling. If you are disrespectful, it is like the water in the bowl full of water, and you cannot read even the most exquisite book. If you are respectful, even the worst book can be found out.

Third, you must be diligent. Others read one volume a day, and I read ten volumes a day. After a few years, I know a hundred times more than him.

Four, reading is not accused of being effective. Before reading a book thoroughly, I have already made a statement. Others read it once a day, but I read it ten times a day. When Su Dongpo was young, he read it as a few times. It should be like entering the sea, and there are all department stores.

After reading Lin Yanchao's letter, he couldn't help but sigh that this set of methods is the master of Neo-Confucianism and the key to self-cultivation and curement.

Lin Qun wrote this letter to himself with high expectations. Is it not only to be a Jinshi, but also to be a great scholar of his generation?

I can't afford it. My pursuit is not about doing knowledge, but about doing my work actively. (To be continued...)
