Later, it was thanks to Lu Jin's daughter, Lu Baohua, who learned of this matter and told her father, hoping he could lend a hand to Fan Yugan if possible.
Lu Jin kept this matter in mind and happened to meet Fan Yugan on the street the next day. Because Fan Yugan used to hang around with those playboys like Lu Yuanpeng, engaging in mischievous deeds, Lu Jin was acquainted with him. Lu Jin then stopped Fan Yugan and asked why he was determined to participate in the imperial examination.
Fan Yugan said... although Bai Qingyan spared his father's life, his father was still imprisoned, and now his old illness had relapsed. He didn't know how long he could hold on.
The prison guards knew his father was once a traitor of the former dynasty, and their relatives avoided associating with them to prevent being implicated. He wanted to ensure his father had a better life in prison, so he could only participate in the imperial examinations.
