In the study.

Wang Yuan took out a book and said, "Sir, you want the "Zhou Yuan Gongji". ”

Wang Yangming was drinking the medicine, and almost squirted out the medicine, and asked, "Didn't you ask you to copy a copy?" ”

"Why copy books when they are ready-made?" Wang Yuan looked like a matter of course.

It makes sense, Wang Yangming couldn't refute it, and he was angry and funny at the moment: "The Yi family's collection of books is not borrowed, why did you borrow the books?" ”

Wang Yuan thought for a while and said, "It may be that I have a pure heart that aspires to learn, and the old gentleman of the Yi family was moved and allowed me to lend three books at the same time." ”

"Naughty!"

Wang Yangming picked up the ring ruler on the case and gently tapped the student's head: "Tell the truth!" ”

Wang Yuan told the truth: "Mr. Yi asked me to compose a poem, and I wrote a poem. ”

What is the word? can actually let the Yi family borrow books. Wang Yangming was quite surprised.

Wang Yuan had no choice but to write the song "Linjiang Immortal".

Wang Yangming was silent for a long time in front of the paper, silent for half an hour, and suddenly said: "You haven't seen the Yangtze River, so you wrote 'Rolling Yangtze River East Passing Water'?" ”

Wang Yuan replied: "I haven't seen the Yangtze River, but I have read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". ”

Wang Yangming shook his head and said: "This poem does not fit the mood of the young man, do you have anything to hide from me?" ”

At this time, it was Wang Yuan's turn to be silent, and he said for a while: "When I was three years old, no one taught me to read. My father picked up a copy of the Huayan Sutra, and I read it out on the spot, and those words seemed to be engraved in my head. It's the same with this song, which suddenly popped up. ”

"Su Hui?" Wang Yangming's expression was complicated, and he seemed to believe it a little.

Before the age of thirty-one, Wang Yangming was a theist, and even wanted to become a monk and cultivate immortals and Buddhas several times.

After the age of thirty-one, Wang Yangming gradually disbelieved in the existence of gods and Buddhas. Until the dragon field enlightenment, he completely transformed into an atheist, believing that his heart was the master of heaven, earth, ghosts and gods.

However, neither science nor mind denies that there are people who are born to know!

Even Zhu Xi described those who are born to know as first-class people, because the principles of heaven exist in people's hearts, and the principles and nature of those who are born to know are not blinded. If ordinary people's heavenly principles and nature are blinded, they must use acquired efforts to clear the blindness and restore their heavenly principles and nature to their original colors.

Wang Yuan stopped talking.

Wang Yangming sat there for a long time, and finally spoke: "Don't write poetry anymore, it's easy to cause some trouble." ”

Trouble soon followed.

It only took a few days for the song "Linjiang Immortal" to spread all over Guizhou City. To be precise, it is the cultural circle that spreads all over Guizhou City, and this circle is too small to hide the news at all.

It was the imperial examination immigrants who returned to their hometowns to take the exam, and they were all amazed by "Linjiang Immortal", and they came to the academy one by one to see the prodigy.

Wang Yuan studied hard behind closed doors, saw no one, and read the model texts of the previous imperial examinations every day.

"Wang Erlang, I'm afraid I can't push it off this time, Zuo Bu's political envoy wants to see you by name." The little guy Wang Xiang came to spread the news.

Wang Yuan continued to study Fan Wen and directly refused: "No! ”

Another day passed.

Liu Yaozu rushed into the room: "Second brother Wang, the political envoy Zuo Bu has come to the academy in person, accompanied by Vice Xian Xi, who is chatting with Mr. at the moment." This political envoy is a kind man, and just now he pulled me to talk and asked about you when you were a child. ”

"See you then." Wang Yuan knew that he couldn't hide.

……

The political envoy of Guizhou Zuobu is named Guo Shen, an old man in his sixties.

The Ming Dynasty respected the left.

If you are promoted from the right officer to the left officer, although there is no change in the grade, it is a typical promotion transfer.

Hell promotion!

Guo Shen wanted to scold his mother, he was originally a right-hand political envoy in Fujian, how nourishing and beautiful, and he was suddenly promoted to the political envoy of Guizhou Zuobu.

On the way to his post, Guo Shen had already walked to the border of Huguang and Guangzhou, and the Xuanning rebels cut off the post road, so he could only go around Sichuan. finally came to Guizhou, but before the butt was hot, the Sanmiao Chieftain Uprising broke out in the west. And Guo Shen himself, because of the half-year journey, lay directly in the hospital bed for two months.

Everything is thanks to Liu Jin, Guo Shen's promotion and transfer is nothing more than to make way for Liu Jin's henchmen - in history, this gentleman will be promoted again next year, and he can't even stay in Guizhou, and he was promoted to Nanjing Taifu Temple Qing for retirement. If it weren't for Liu Jin's sudden downfall, he would definitely die in this position.

Guo Shen belongs to the passable peace officer, and he giggles at everyone. Even if he met Pingtou people on the road, he could shush the cold and ask for warmth for a long time, and then go home and do what he should do. It is a government, that is, to practice frugality, repair schools, promote education, and write a few poems when there is nothing to do, which is evaluated as: there is no city government, generous and simple, and there is an elderly style.

One word, mix!

How could such a chaotic official risk his life to oppose Liu Jin?

Just because he is from Jiangxi and belongs to Nanbang Jinshi, the good Fujian fat shortage was snatched away and came to Guizhou, where birds don't. The rabbit was anxious and bitten, Guo Shen resolutely joined the anti-eunuch army, and went to the court to report the eunuchs in Guizhou.

Why do the political envoys and envoys of Guizhou have to go with the eunuchs?

It was really Gonggong Liu who did too much, and in the second year of Zhengde, he forced the cabinet to expand the power of the eunuchs. In the past, the eunuchs were only in charge of local military affairs, but now they can meddle in government affairs, justice and supervision, which is equivalent to the combination of the governor and the imperial history of the capital.

The political envoy of Guizhou is already very pitiful, and he still has to be divided by the eunuchs and do his eighteenth generation of Liu Jin's ancestors!

Guo Shen came to Guizhou for less than a year, and he wanted to repair schools and promote education as always, but this matter has been done by Xi Shu. He can only take the time to wander around, and his reputation is to observe the people's customs, but in fact, he is accumulating materials for writing poems.

Moreover, Guo Shen especially likes to write hymns, praising the local education and local agricultural politics. In addition, his poems are wonderfully written, and once they are disseminated, they can even be used as auxiliary materials for performance appraisal - the examination method and the examination method are parallel, and the latter is very operable.

Integrity officials inspect localities and collect relevant information about local officials, and official voices are the focus of investigation. For example, if the magistrate enters the Xiangxian Temple, it means that the person's official reputation is very good, and the gentry often control the Xiangxian Temple, which leads to the fact that the magistrate must befriend the gentry.

Poetry is also part of it, and if the official's hymn is widely circulated among the local scholars, the official will also give high marks to the respondent.

"You are the prodigy who wrote "Linjiang Immortal"?"

Guo Shen has no official frame at all, chubby and smiling like a Maitreya Buddha. It was only the first time he had met Wang Yuan, but he was as kind as he was to his nephew, and he took Wang Yuan's hand and exclaimed: "The spirit is lofty, the spirit is handsome, and the result is extraordinary!" ”

Wang Yuan smiled and withdrew his hand, and arched his hand: "I've seen Guo Fantai." He said to Xi Shu again, "I've seen Xi Vice Xian!" ”

Wang Yangming smiled: "Sit down." ”

Guo Shen began to talk nonsense again: "Everyone else says that Guizhou is a barbarian land. This is a lie! I have been in Guizhou for less than a year, and I have visited many famous places, which can be called Zhong Lingyuxiu. ”

"Guo Fantai has a unique insight." Xi Shu could only smile and agree.

"Don't believe it," Guo Shen pointed at Wang Yuan and said, "There is such a prodigy, doesn't it confirm that Guizhou is the land of Zhong Lingyu?" ”

Wang Yangming said: "Guo Fantai should not praise too much, young people are easy to be proud and vain. ”

"Non-yes, non-yes," Guo Shen suddenly arched his hand to the north, "I have been founding the country for a hundred years, and only a few prodigies have appeared?" There is a prodigy in Guizhou, which is really the auspicious Rui of the Holy King's Dynasty! ”

I, Nima, what did Emperor Zhengde do, can I still say that it is the Holy King's Reign?

Wang Yangming and Xi Shu were speechless for an instant, not knowing how to answer.

Guo Shen stood up directly, held Wang Yuan's hands, and said with a smile on his face: "Little prodigy, I have already seen your Mengshi Shen Weitang." He said that you can recite Buddhist scriptures without a teacher at the age of three, and at the age of ten you only learned the "Three Character Sutra", so you made the couplet "The world is insightful and knowledgeable, and the practice of human feelings is the article". It can be said that you are born to know, and you are born to be wise! ”

"Fan Tai smiled." Wang Yuan withdrew his hand again.

Guo Shen hugged Wang Yuan's shoulders again, and asked warmly: "I heard that you are from Fanzhai, do you have difficulties in your studies?" ”

Wang Yuan replied: "There is no difficulty, thank you for your concern." ”

Guo Shen smiled at Wang Yangming and Xi Shu: "You see, our little prodigy is not only gifted and intelligent, but also has a good character. The gentleman is also poor! ”

As he spoke, he asked his entourage to take twenty taels of silver and personally handed them over to Wang Yuan: "Since you have such talent, you will definitely work hard to learn in the future, if you have any difficulties, just come and tell this official!" ”

Wang Yuan couldn't cry or laugh, put away the silver and said, "Thank you Guo Fantai for your support." ”

After some cozy gestures, Guo Shen finally got involved with the prodigy.

When he returned to the mansion of the chief executive, he wrote five prodigy poems that night, and wrote more than ten letters overnight, which he sent to his fellow villagers who were officials in various places, along with three poems and a couplet by Wang Yuan.

Anyway, it's bragging, he Guo Shen found a prodigy in Guizhou, and he did his best to help - these are all political achievements!

The more Wang Yuan's poems and couplets are disseminated, the more Guo Shen's political achievements will be, anyway, he has been bound in this life.

In the next half year, Guo Shen said that he was a prodigy when he met people, and deliberately created momentum for Wang Yuan - he couldn't do anything else, the political envoy was too aggrieved, and he shrank up to be the director of the street office and was divided by the eunuchs.

was so engaged by Guo Shen, Wang Yuan's name as a prodigy not only spread all over Guizhou, but even the scholars in Jiangxi and Liangjing heard about it.

Especially the poem "Linjiang Immortal", Jiangnan Bookstore printed "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and actually began to print it on the title page!
