After hearing this, Chen Yun neither responded nor was happy, and she didn't care about delving into it. Instead, she widened her eyes and asked subconsciously: "Chen Zhi and I? Legalism?"

Xu Zhi smiled but said nothing, but just glanced at Chen Bian. The latter understood and said that the nobles were coming, and the academy was short of people. The competition situation of several families was a little, which made Chen Yun even more surprised.

"Can Chen Zhi still do academic research? Isn't this a joke? But, if you want to compete with several other outstanding people? This... this is not a joke. I have finally accumulated a little reputation recently. If I participate in this screening, it may be bad..."

Chen Yun's eyes flashed, and she turned her mind. A disciple suddenly came to report outside the door, saying that Chen's uncle Chen Chi had taken time to meet Xu Zhi.

"Since that's the case, I will say goodbye first." Xu Zhi didn't say much and said decisively.

"I won't send you it. My brother is going to take it out. I am the second child, so I should go to the mourning hall to replace you." Chen Bian said politely, sent Xu Zhi out, and then turned around.

"Second uncle, this is different from what he agreed to." Chen Yun's mind was full of money, so she could not care about the so-called Legalist assessment.

"Be calm, how can you be so kind?" Chen Bian squinted his face, "Mr. Xu told Chen Zhi clearly that I want to give you some face. If you leave the fields behind, you don't have to worry. What kind of person is Chen Zhi? You know everything, so I recommend you. When the funeral is done, you will read books in the Book Pavilion and learn some of the Legalism. If you compare him, I will propose to divide some fields into your name, which is natural."

"But how can I let him pass this? Second uncle, Mr. Xu wouldn't be blinded by him," Chen Yun was still trying to change the situation. "Also, I am not very proficient in this Legalist knowledge, I am afraid..."

Chen Bian frowned: "This matter has been decided and cannot be changed. Chen Zhi can say a few famous sayings from the Legalists. Will a talented man who speaks like this be afraid of him? If he can do it, you will definitely do it too. You should be less distracted from other things and focus on preparing for it with all your efforts. I hope to hear good news for this competition for the scholars."

The slightly cold words made Chen Yun wake up from her dream. He quickly calmed down, suppressed his thoughts, and said carefully: "What the second uncle taught me is that my nephew thought that Chen Zhi was ignorant and would definitely lose face to my Chen family. He was anxious, so he spoke a little inappropriately."

Chen Bian nodded: "Just be clear in your heart. Go back and prepare. I will explain to the people below. You can read the books of the Chen family. This matter is very important. Do you understand? The fields are already in our pockets, so don't worry too much."

Chen Yun breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't dare to offend his backer in the Chen family, but he was still worried, so he asked: "How many days will it be before the assessment? I hope the second brother will say clearly that my nephew will have a good idea."

"I don't know the specific deadline. It should be soon, but it still takes half a month, so don't be careless. This is not only to suppress Chen Zhi, but also to the Chen family. Go."

Chen Yun bowed and retreated, but she still had unwillingness in her eyes. How could this look escape Chen Bian's eyes?

"Chen Yun still can't hold back her temper. She will lose her composure after encountering a little bit of trouble. She will face me. If someone else is afraid she will not be able to suppress his temper. If she doesn't change her temperament, she will suffer sooner or later. In comparison, Chen Zhi's performance today surprised me."

The house was quiet, and Chen Bian did not go to the mourning hall immediately, but instead pondered and his thoughts fluctuated.

"It is said that Chen Zhi did something wrong. When he saw him today, he was indeed not awesome. But he just grasped the details. Otherwise, I would have just kicked him out. That boy seemed to have really studied the Legalism theory. This cannot be said to be ignorant. Even if it is just a paper talk, it is a skill. Compared with him, Chen Yun seemed a bit inferior except for a few poems."

Thinking of this, Chen Bian suddenly felt a thought.

"No matter what, Chen Zhi is also a child of the Chen family. Although I don't like him, his blood is thicker than water. If he has real skills, he should give him a chance. If he can pass this time, I should try my best to remedy it and eliminate the conflicts between them. If he is not qualified, he is just an ordinary person, so he doesn't have to worry about it anymore. As for the fields..."

As he thought about it, Chen Bian shook his head and laughed.

At the same time.

Chen Yun outside the door had a cloudy face and a gloomy aura, so even the Chen children at the door did not dare to go over and chat.

"Fight with Chen Zhi for the quota of Guijing Academy?"

When Chen Yun thought of this, she felt angry and worried.

Anger is because he feels that comparing him with Chen Zhi is an insult to himself; worry is because he is worried about his knowledge.

"I have never been exposed to the Legalists. If I don't talk about Legalists, even the past few poems rely on Xu Fang, what if I reveal it? This is different from what I originally planned. I wanted to accumulate some reputation and improve my grades, but I didn't expect to participate in any screening. Once it is brushed off, it's not a joke. Do you have to find an excuse to quit?"

The more I thought about it, Chen Yun frowned, but she was unwilling to accept it.

"This is a rare opportunity. Guijing Academy is not only in Pengcheng County, but also in Xuzhou. There are many officials from academy in a few counties. These are all connections. If you can master it, you will have to look at his Chen Bian's face in the future?"

Thinking of this, Chen Yun's breathing suddenly became rapid and his mind swayed.

"Chen Bian went back on his word and said he wanted to seize land, but gave Chen Zhi a chance. Could it be that as Chen Zhi said, Chen Bian just regarded me as a lackey and didn't take it seriously at all? If I can make a name for myself in the future, he must be good-looking! But how should I start with this method of law?"

After the Three Kingdoms dispute, all industries such as population, politics, and economy were withered, and the government was still unstable. One of the main effects was that the barriers of "respecting Confucianism alone" were loosened, and local schools that taught specific disciplines such as history, literature, calligraphy, law, mathematics, medicine, metaphysics, Taoism, painting, and martial arts were raised. The legacy of a hundred schools of thought gradually emerged, and Guijing Academy was one of them.

Thinking of the forces behind the academy, Chen Yun could not help but covet.

"I'm worried. What qualifications do Chen Zhi have to be as famous as me? Those who are ignorant dare to compete with me for a quota? Could it be that he has any support?"

While walking, Chen Yun thought about the third elder Xu Zhi and suddenly realized.

"If the three elders leaked the test questions for him, it would make sense. If they could get the test questions from him, the problem would naturally be solved. By the way, the waste could be withdrawn from competition and reduce opponents..."

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this inference was correct. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he saw a figure.

He was a Qingyi servant who was picking a maid's chin around the corner of the corridor, smiling and saying something, making the maid blush.

"Xu Fang, what are you doing? You are too ignorant of the importance! What is this?" Chen Yun scolded and walked over.

The maid was startled and quickly bowed to Chen Yun, then turned around and fled in a hurry, with a panic expression. However, the servant bowed calmly and said with a smile: "Young Master, are you looking for me?"

"Yes, I'll find you if you have something to do," Chen Yun looked at the other person with a smile, "That poem is good and quite appropriate."

Xu Fang immediately smiled: "Young Master Xie appreciates it. I have only such a little ability. It is my honor to be able to help the young master."

Chen Yun waved her hand and said, "Okay, don't do this. I have something to leave to you."

"Young master, please give me instructions. I will definitely do my best!" Xu Fang immediately patted his chest.

……………………

"What to do? What to do?"

On the other side, in a corner of Chen's backyard, there were two people gathering together, with anxiety and worry on their faces.

The two of them looked somewhat similar. One was a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, and the other looked less than fifteen. They were Chen Zhi’s two younger brothers. The older one was Chen Ting. He was the one who sent a message to Chen Zhi before. The younger one was Chen Xi, who was born in a nanny.

Old Mrs. Chen passed away, and Chen's male male child gathered in the mansion. Chen Zhi's two younger brothers were no exception. They should have been busy, but when they thought that their elder brother was called by his second uncle and didn't know what would happen, they couldn't help but worry, and their thoughts were shaking.

Chen Xi looked sad and shook his head and sighed: "This time even my uncle offended me, and I don't know what to do with my elder brother."

As the elder brother, Chen Ting was unwilling to show his panic and said calmly: "Don't worry, if you have the rules of your clan, even the second uncle dared not do anything randomly. I have seen my elder brother, and he said he knew it and would definitely not let it go."

"What's the use of clan rules? The second uncle's plan has been a day or two. Besides, the debt collector came to the door the day before yesterday. I guess, the eldest brother is eager to sell the land for money. Alas..." Chen Xi, who was full of childishness, mentioned his eldest brother, with a disappointment and a hint of fear. After all, he is a concubine and his status is no better than that of the legitimate son. He has been criticized a lot from Chen Zhi before, and the relationship between the two brothers is not harmonious.

As soon as the words were finished, Chen Zhi's voice came from the side—
