My younger sister, Wang Wei, will be fourteen in half a year. She has bright eyes and white teeth, and is elegant, but her skin is a little bit darker.
Wang Wei usually studied reading in the Song clan. Although he was not said to be talented in poetry, he was still familiar with poems and books and could compose some poems and poems of acceptable quality.
This kind of level is not outstanding in Jiangnan, but it is extremely rare in Guizhou. After all, in such a barbaric land, there are not many men who study, let alone young girls. Coupled with Wang Yuan's status,
Wang Wei occasionally had one or two poems circulated, and she was flattered by Guizhou scholars as a talented woman of her generation.
When Wang Wei was young, all she heard was praise, and she was inevitably a little carried away. She admired her brother, the number one scholar, very much. She could recite all of his poems, and she knew them by heart by the age of eight or nine.
Wang Wei was busy preparing for the wedding some time ago, so Wang Wei did not disturb Wang Yuan. On the second day of the wedding, she came over with the poem manuscript: "Second brother, how do you think these poems are written?"
Wang Yuan was enjoying his leisure time with his wife and children. He took the poems and flipped through a few of them, nodded and said: "Given your age, it's pretty good, but the traces of imitation are too heavy. Some of them forcefully added new words to compose.
The feeling of sadness.”
"Oh," Wang Wei felt a little disappointed, "Mr. Zhuoxuan also said the same, and told me to guard against arrogance and impetuosity and ignore those flattering remarks."
Mr. Zhuoxuan is Song Xuan, the principal of the Song Clan Academy, Song Linger, the uncle of Mr. Song, and the most famous poet in Guizhou today.
Song Ling'er suddenly smiled and said: "If you want to learn composition, go to the capital together this time. There is a sister-in-law there who is very good at it. You can also ask your second brother to find a better teacher for you in the capital than if you stay in Guizhou.
Much stronger."
When Wang Wei was studying in the Song family, he stayed in the Song family's Beiya and had a lot of contact with Song Ling'er. The relationship between his aunt and his sister-in-law was particularly close.
Hearing Song Ling'er mention another sister-in-law, Wang Wei did not suspect that she was sarcastic, because if Song Ling'er was jealous, she would definitely not hide it. Wang smiled and said: "Second brother also asked me to go to the capital, saying that staying in Guizhou would not broaden my horizons...
…”
Before Wang Wei could finish speaking, Song Ling'er said: "Are you still looking for a good family for you in the capital?"
"No way!" Wang Wei's pretty face turned red.
Song Ling'er teased: "You are almost fifteen years old, it's time to find a good son-in-law for you."
Wang Wei said shyly: "I'm still young, so I don't want to get married so quickly."
While the aunt and sister-in-law were having fun, a servant suddenly came to report that Guizhou Chief Minister Chen Yong had paid a visit.
Wang Yuan immediately went to the living room and invited Chen Yong in: "Chen Fantai is polite."
Chen Yong said: "Shilang Wang is getting married, so I come here to bother you. It's really rude."
"It doesn't matter," Wang Yuan said with a smile, "I heard from my father that Chen Fantai loves the people like a son, and I am also planning to pay him a visit."
Although it was obvious that he was here to curry favor with Wang Yuan, Chen Yong did not say anything to curry favor at all, but only talked about his political philosophy in Guizhou. He was building water conservancy projects to increase the population, and at the same time he was promoting education to appease the barbarians, and gradually assimilated the barbarians of all ethnic groups into the
Han people.
Wang Yuan had a good impression of this person. After chatting about Guizhou political affairs, he suddenly asked: "Where is Zou Wensheng, the governor of Guizhou?"
Chen Yong replied: "Zou Futai was in eastern Sichuan to quell the chaos, so he will attend the wedding of Wang Shilang in the future."
In order to facilitate the southwest governor to quell the chaos, the powers of the governor and governor of Guizhou have been continuously expanded. They can not only mobilize the Guizhou army, but also supervise eastern Sichuan and Hubei (northwestern Huguang). In this way, the three provinces are connected and there is no fear of rebels repeating between provinces.
Jump horizontally.
Wang Yuan asked again: "The civil strife of the Shuixi'an clan continues, what can Zou Futai do to deal with it?"
Chen Yong shook his head and said, "I don't know Zou Futai's plan."
Wang Yuan asked: "What does Chen Fantai think of the civil strife in Shuixi'an?"
Chen Yong smiled and said: "Let them fight on their own until the end, and then the imperial court will step in to end it. Follow the story of Sizhou, help the weaker one, and make sure that Shuixi is legally divided into two."
Wang Yuan was very satisfied: "If there is an opportunity, I will recommend you as the right deputy imperial envoy to patrol Guizhou and finalize the matter completely. Guizhou will no longer have the big trouble of chieftains."
Chen Yong quickly said: "As a minister, you should obey the arrangements of the imperial court."
The intention of the two people's meeting has been achieved. Wang Yuan took a capable minister under his command, and Chen Yong received the promise to serve as the governor of Guizhou in the future.
Although they are all officials in Guizhou, the chief envoys are far inferior to the governors.
The lowest-level governor can only oversee one state. The governor of Guizhou is a special situation. Now he can take charge of both eastern Sichuan and Hubei. He is already a weakened version of the governor of the three provinces. He must at least be the right deputy governor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Qualified to serve.
And Wang Yuan has other plans!
Now that King Ning's rebellion has subsided, it's time for Wang Yangming to be promoted, so he can recommend Chen Yong to governor Jiangxi. Chen Yong is a man who doesn't give face to anyone, so he is suitable for rectifying land annexation in Jiangxi. Anyway, he has offended enough people, so
I don't mind offending dozens or hundreds more.
If Chen Yong can open up the situation in Jiangxi and recommend this person to patrol Guizhou and completely split the Shuixi An clan, he will be an extremely sharp knife in the future.
That night, Wang Yuan wrote a letter to the emperor, recommending Chen Yong to be the governor of Jiangxi. This letter would take at least three months to arrive. It is estimated that King Ning's rebellion was almost over, and it would be seamlessly connected with Wang Yangming's side.
The next day, several more officials visited, and Wang Yuandu received them one by one.
It is a pity that except for Lin Maoda, the leftist political advisor, the others are mediocre people, and it is difficult for them to get into Wang Erlang's eyes.
In the next half month, Wang Yuan spent his time sightseeing, and even went hunting with his wife, children, and pandas. Occasionally, he held cultural gatherings with his fellow classmates, had banquets and had fun at Jiaxiu Tower, and went to the Civilization College to give lectures and spread Yang.
Mind science and physics.
At the end of May, Wang Yuan left Guizhou with his wife, children and younger sister.
Traveling with him were Yuan Da, Twelve Tiqi, Song Ling'er's maid Aja, thirteen personal guards, and eleven fellow students who wanted to find a way out.
Not long after entering the Huguang territory, news came from Jiangxi that King Ning had finally rebelled!
Just like in history, King Ning did not want to rebel so early. Because Zhu Houzhao was so unreasonable, if the emperor continued to toss, it might be easier to rebel in the future.
However, Wang Yangming suppressed bandits in Jiangxi and almost wiped out the bandits in southern Jiangxi. Many of these bandits were secretly supported by King Ning, because he had not restored the guard at that time, so he could only secretly raise troops by raising bandits.
Wang Yangming came to suppress the bandits, which was equivalent to giving King Ning a knife in his heart. If the suppression continued, he would have no soldiers left!
Coupled with the news that the capital had been exchanged, Prince Ning felt that the emperor was going to attack him, so how could he dare to sit at home and wait for death?
On June 13th, King Ning formally raised his troops.
This day was King Ning's birthday. He hosted a banquet for local officials in Jiangxi and declared at the banquet: "The emperor is not the son of the previous emperor. Our ancestors have not eaten blood for thirteen years. Now the Queen Mother has sent a secret edict, asking me to raise an army to fight against the thieves!"
The officials were shocked, and those who spoke out and opposed were killed on the spot, and those who did not want to follow were arrested and imprisoned.
Just before the birthday banquet, King Ning consecrated Li Shishi as Prime Minister of the Left, Liu Yangzheng as Prime Minister of the Right, and Wang Lun as Minister of the Ministry of War. Then he gathered soldiers and bandits from various guards in Jiangxi and claimed to have 100,000 troops to occupy Nanchang, Jiujiang and other places.
Li Shishi, the fake prime minister of the left, was a serious Jinshi. He also served as a minister of the Ministry of punishment, and even became the censor of the right capital - a second-rank official.
When Li Dongyang became official, Yang Tinghe became the first assistant, and he immediately frantically eliminated dissidents.
When Wang Yangming was thrown to Nanjing, Li Shishi was also forced to resign. Full of dissatisfaction with the court, Li Shishi chose to seek refuge with Prince Ning and marry Prince Ning. He had been secretly planning these years.
Liu Yangzheng, the pseudo-right prime minister, was much weaker in comparison and was just an unsuccessful candidate.
This guy failed many tests in the capital and was too conceited to put his talents to use, so he went to work as an aide to King Ning. He frantically encouraged King Ning to rebel, and helped King Ning make friends with bandits and heroes. He was considered King Ning's early mastermind.
King Ning's call to arms was written by Liu Yangzheng, and the approximate content is translated as follows: "It has been more than a hundred years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and the bloodline of the ancestors has been cut off. Zhu Houzhao was a bastard among the people, and was brought into the palace by the eunuchs. Zhu Houzhao was ignorant and ignorant, and spent all day in the palace
They ate, drank, and had fun in the Leopard House. They also built a lot of construction projects in the Xuan Mansion, plundered women, selected beauties, and built a palace. As an emperor, he trusted eunuchs, side generals, actors, and sycophants. Upright ministers were suppressed, and the people of the world were in dire straits. But Ning
Wang Zhengtong is of the same blood, and if he raises an army to attack the ignorant king, he will definitely get rid of the evils of the times, revitalize the Ming Dynasty, and call on the righteous people in the world to actively sign up for rebellion."
To be honest, when Wang Yuan saw the rebellion slogan, he really couldn't help but want to laugh.
This essay is only at the level of a scholar. I really don’t know how Liu Yang passed the exam.
What's even more ridiculous is that since Wang Yangming has pacified the bandits in southern Jiangxi and wiped out all the most famous bandits, King Ning's troops are filled with various small and medium-sized bandit groups, and his generals include Min Twenty-four.
Guys like Wu Shisan and Ling Shiyi don’t even dare to reveal their real names.
