Although Ganquan Academy was rich in capital, Fan Shilang was still the Sixth Ministry's Minister. Since Fan Shilang personally brought his nephew to the door to apologize, his attitude was low enough.
Under this situation, it is difficult for Ganquan Academy to fall out with Fan Shilang again. In other words, even if Mr. Lu insists on having a confrontation with the Fan family, the "Ganquan Sect" in Jiankang City may not agree. .
Therefore, Mr. Lu could only accept it as soon as possible.
Or, it has to be.
In this world, except for sworn hatreds, nothing cannot be compromised, and the so-called politics, to put it bluntly, is just compromise.
But Lu Anshi did not agree to Fan Shilang's request to see Shen Yi.
Although Master Lu had only met this Minister Fan a few times, through this conversation, Master Lu could clearly feel that although Minister Fan seemed easy-going, he was somewhat sinister in his heart. Although he could not personally Attack Shen Yi, but at this time, of course you have to avoid it if you can.
After all, in Master Lu's opinion, Shen Yi is not very old. If Shen Yi arrives at the scene and has any conflict with Fan Shilang, it will be really difficult for him, the head of the academy, to keep Shen Yi.
Even in order to make Fan Shilang have some scruples, Master Lu admitted in front of him that the master-disciple relationship between him and Shen Yi did not actually exist.
Hearing this, Fan Shilang looked at Lu Anshi in slight surprise, and then said with a smile: "As far as I know, Mr. Shen has no fame yet. It is rare that the master has accepted a disciple in vain."
"Lu returned to his hometown to teach in order to educate the people of Jiangdu, and it has nothing to do with fame."
Hearing this, Minister Fan chuckled: "Master, what you said is true, but sometimes, fame is education."
Having said this, he gave Lu Anshi a meaningful look.
This look has many meanings.
It seems to be saying that your Ganquan Academy is the most prestigious place in the world, otherwise we wouldn't have jumped all over the place just because of a small county examination.
Master Lu ignored the look and said slowly: "For some people, it may be true, but for Mr. Lu, fame is fame, and education is education."
"When the saint traveled around the world and taught the world, he had no fame or fame in his heart."
"When a saint travels around the country, he may not be completely without fame and fame. There is no conflict between his success in managing the world and benefiting the people."
Fan Shilang chuckled and looked at Lu Anshi: "Master is not a saint, so it is better not to speak for a saint."
After saying this, Fan Shilang cupped his hands to Lu Anshi and said, "Fan has taken the liberty of making trouble today. Please forgive me for any offense I have offended."
"I just returned to Jiangdu yesterday. There are still many things in the city now. Maybe the invitations from the government and county offices have been sent to my home. I am busy with secular affairs, so I won't disturb my husband's purity."
Master Lu took a deep breath, stood up, and bowed his hands to Minister Fan in return: "I will see the Minister off."
In this way, Master Lu sent Fan's uncle and nephew all the way to the entrance of the academy. When the uncle and nephew got on the carriage, Master Lu silently watched the two of them go away. After a long time, the headmaster of the academy squinted his eyes and turned around. He turned around and returned to his study.
After arriving in his study, Lu Anshi sat in his chair and was lost in thought for a long time, but he never looked at the letter on the table.
After an unknown amount of time, Mr. Lu finally made a decision in his heart. He lowered his head slightly and said, "Quan De, go outside and shout for Shen Yi to come see me."
Quande's full name is Lu Quande. He is an old servant of Lu Anshi's family. He was Lu Anshi's book boy in his early years. Later he worked in the Lu family and never married.
At this moment, Lu Quande was serving tea to Lu Anshi in the study. Hearing this, he quickly lowered his head and went down to help Lu Anshi call someone.
Not long after, Shen Yi and Shen Qilang, who were reading a book, were called into Master Lu's study. After seeing Master Lu, he quickly lowered his head and said, "Sir, are you looking for me?"
Lu Anshi was flipping through a book at the moment. After hearing Shen Yi's voice, he pointed to the chair opposite him and said, "Sit."
Shen Qi sat down honestly.
Lu Anshi didn't look at the voice, but said calmly: "Servant Fan of the Fan family came just now."
Shen Yi's eyelids twitched.
For him now, the county magistrate Zhang Jian is already a boundless heavenly master, and the existence of Liubu Shilang is a figure that he cannot touch at all.
"Xue...students heard about it."
In fact, there was no Minister Fan arriving at the academy. It was just that Fan Dongcheng, Master Fan, was led to the academy by a middle-aged man, and then entered Lu Anshi's study.
Shen Yi guessed the identity of Fan Shilang.
After he was threatened by Fan Dongcheng, he quickly thought that this matter would become a big deal. What he didn't expect was that in just two days, the minister of the Ministry of Justice who was far away in the capital returned to Jiangdu in person and came to Ganquan Academy.
Lu Anshi said "hmm" and then said slowly: "This matter is over for the time being. Yan Mingli's side will be settled by the Fan family. No one will know about his fraud, but..."
Master Lu said solemnly: "He did it after all. After this incident, the academy will find a reason to expel him, and will not give him any more exams. Whether he takes the science examination or not will have nothing to do with the academy." It doesn’t matter anymore.”
Shen Yi was not surprised by this result.
Although he has no decision-making power, considering it from Lu Anshi's perspective, or from the Fan family's perspective, this approach is reasonable and reasonable.
After all, Shen Yi couldn't expect that just because of a small county examination fraud case, everyone at Ganquan Academy would roll up their sleeves and beat the Fan family to death for him.
This is not realistic.
And...he plans to roll up his sleeves and beat the Fan family to death himself in the future.
"Sir is wise."
Shen Yi flattered him without blushing or out of breath: "In this way, the reputation of the academy will be intact, and the four of us will not be implicated and affect the scientific examination."
Lu Anshi said "hmm", then looked at the thick envelope on his desk, and said silently: "You... pick up the things on the desk and take a look."
At this point, he paused and said slowly: "You can decide whether you want it or not after reading it. If you have the courage to hold it after reading it, I will give it to you."
Lu Anshi's words were so confusing that Shen Yi naturally couldn't understand them.
However, he was brave and did not hesitate after hearing the words. He picked up the envelope from the desk and took out four more small envelopes.
Shen Yi sat opposite Lu Anshi and patiently opened the first envelope, reading it carefully from beginning to end, word for word.
After reading the first letter, the voice and eyes were still a little confused.
After reading the second and third letters, he began to frown slightly.
After reading the fourth letter, Shen Yi looked up at Lu Anshi and swallowed.
"First...sir, Fan Qian is..."
Master Lu looked calm: "The head of the Fan family, Fan Dongcheng's father, is now Mr. Fan in Jiangdu City."
Hearing this expected answer, Shen Yi swallowed a big mouthful of saliva again.
He subconsciously dropped the letter in his hand on the table, as if he had been electrocuted.
This thing...for him now...
Too dangerous!
Lu Anshi said slowly: "It's a good thing that you don't dare to ask for this thing. It shows that you still have some fear in your heart."
"I will put it away in a moment. If you come to me for it again in the future, I will not give it to you."
Shen Qilang took a deep breath, his face was gloomy and uncertain. He seemed to be talking to Lu Anshi, and he seemed to be whispering.
"There are...seven people in a family..."
