who is solving for himself the problem of the scholar in politic

“Her son is a lawyer, who is solving for himself the problem of the scholar in politics.Although not yet thirty, he has spent two terms in the Legislature of the State, where he has done yeoman service for the city.”
who is solving for himself the problem of the scholar in politics這部分是不是就是拐著彎說他從了政？
