The political envoy of Guizhou was changed again, and the Sichuan rebel army became more and more troublesome, even to the border of Huguang and Guangzhou, and the general army of Huguang had to join forces with the Sichuan officials and army to encircle and suppress it.

Because Gao Chongxi was familiar with Sichuan affairs, he was immediately transferred back to serve as Zuobu's political envoy.

The current political envoy of Zuobu in Guizhou was transferred from Guangxi, named Weng Zhizhi, a native of Yuyao, and a fellow villager with Wang Yangming and Shen Fuxuan.

"Uncle Fang, a great event!" The staff rushed in to report it.

When Gao Chongxi was in Guizhou, he had already shrunk the rebellious army into a ball. As a result, as soon as he was transferred to Sichuan, the Miao rebel army soon expanded again, and Weng Zhizhi was already overwhelmed by these rebel armies.

"What a joy, is it a big victory for the officers and troops?" Weng Zhizhi asked.

The staff said with a smile: "The capital is relaxed, Guizhou Xuanfu Si Shizi Wang Yuan, the third in the current examination, and the high school etiquette is the kui!" ”

Weng Zhizhi said: "What's so strange about this...... No, how many years has Guizhou not been in and out of Jinshi? ”

The staff said: "This is the first Jinshi from Guizhou in fifteen years!" It is also the second test of the Five Classics in Guizhou since the founding of the Ming Dynasty! ”

Weng Zhizhi immediately stood up, said with a smile on his face: "Hurry up and prepare, and then call the deputy envoy Xi, and the official will personally go to the house of Jinshi to congratulate him!" Also, immediately draft a document to inform the province of the good news! ”

The staff immediately took action, and Weng Zhizhi also went to change his official uniform.

There is no way, Guizhou needs this kind of good news too much, and all the bad luck encountered after Weng Zhizhi took office.

Generally speaking, if there is a rebellion in Guizhou, if it cannot resolve it on its own, it will immediately transfer officers and soldiers from Sichuan, Huguang, and Yunnan to encircle and suppress it. However, the armies of Sichuan and Huguang are quelling the rebellion on the border of the two provinces, and Yunnan is close to the guard post in Guizhou, and because the previous Miru Rebellion has not recovered, this has caused the Guizhou rebel army to jump until now.

Weng Zhizhi is also a capable person, he has made meritorious contributions to quelling chaos in Guangxi, but there is no way to exert force here in Guizhou - An Guirong is not dead, and the three sons continue to fight for power, dragging each other down, but they are pressed and beaten by the rebel army.

Soon, Weng Zhizhi saw the official messenger who reported the good news, and Xi Shu also brought Shen Fuxuan to come.

Even Zhu Ji, who participated in the politics of the left, also brought other officials of the Political Department to the scene, and officials of all sizes in Guizhou showed great importance to this.

The informant was very confused, and led the horse and asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, where is the mansion of the prince Wang?" I asked several people in a row, but they didn't know. ”

Xi Shu pointed at Shen Fuxuan and said with a smile: "This is Wang Erlang's master, just let him lead the way." ”

Before everyone could make the trip, Professor Zhang suddenly led the students to come: "But Wang Erlang won the exam for the Five Classics?" ”

"Exactly." Weng Zhizhi said with a smile.

Professor Zhang clapped his hands and laughed: "Kui Xing Gaozhao, my Guizhou scholar also has a bright future!" ”

The students also burst into laughter, Wang Yuan can be at the top of the examination, which brings hope to Guizhou scholars, who said that we can't be admitted to the Jinshi!

Chen Wenxue, Tang Yan, Ye Wu, Li Ying, Yue Zhen, Zhan Hui and other classmates even made an appointment to drink to celebrate, wishing Wang Yuan a steady progress.

Of course, before drinking, you must go to Wang Yuan's house.

"Good news, good news!"

At this moment, suddenly another horse rode into the city, and the official shouted: "Guizhou scholar Wang Yuan, the first place in the palace test, the champion and the first!" The first place in the first class, the champion and the first! ”

"What did that man just say?"

"It seems to be the champion and the first."

"It's the official dialect of the capital, we heard it right?"

"Seems right."

"Guizhou can also produce champions?"

“……”

The good news before was just a surprise. At this time, the good news made the whole Guizhou city a sensation.

Every household took to the street and ran forward with the official errands.

The bookstore owner laughed and stood at the door shouting, "The champion has bought my book, the champion has bought my book!" If you buy a book from our store, you will be able to get a top student in high school! ”

Wang Yuan occasionally went to the restaurant with Li Ying to eat, and the owner of the restaurant also opened his throat and howled: "Hurry up and find someone to change the plaque, our restaurant has to change its name, and it will be changed to 'Zhuangyuan Building' in the future!" ”

But it was a poor official who would take the test, because there were thieves and gangsters in Gyeonggi, and it was delayed for half a month, and he actually arrived in Guizhou with the good news of the palace test.

Weng Zhizhi was about to lead the crowd to set off, and when he heard the shouts from afar, the whole person was stunned, and subconsciously turned around and asked the staff: "But the champion and the first?" ”

"Champion and first!" The staff nodded.

Professor Zhang laughed: "It's unprecedented, Guizhou is unprecedented!" ”

A champion in Jiangxi is nothing, but in Guizhou it means a huge political achievement. The deputy envoy of the university, as well as Professor Zhang, who preached the secretary of the department, will be promoted 100% because of this.

Shen Fuxuan's whole person was stunned, and he couldn't believe it at all, Lao Tzu actually taught a champion? And it's an unprecedented champion!

Weng Zhizhi suddenly shouted: "Quickly take twenty taels of silver and give it to these two errand officials." Don't move for the time being, prepare the etiquette, and tomorrow all the officials will go to the champion's mansion to congratulate! ”

This kind of thing is unprecedented, it is rare in a century, and the political envoy of Guizhou Zuobu must treat it with the highest standard, otherwise the local officials and people will definitely blame him for being too contemptuous.

Chen Wenxue, Tang Yan, Ye Wu, Li Ying, Yue Zhen, Zhan Hui and others looked at each other, Wang Yuan's return from the Rite Examination was scary enough, who would have thought that he would be able to win the first place.

"Fellow beings, we should redouble our efforts!" Chen Wenxue said to his classmates.

Ye Wu nodded and said, "It should be so." After the celebration is over, let's all get together, learn hard every day, and please urge each other! ”

All the beings agreed one after another, and Li Sanlang felt a headache.

Until this moment, Shen Fuxuan finally came back to his senses, clasped his fists and said to Xi Shu: "Congratulations to Shangguan!" ”

Xi Shu smiled: "Same joy, same joy." ”

At this time, Guizhou's right participation in politics was concurrently held by An Guirong, and because the rebellion was not settled, the punishment for An Guirong had not yet come down. But when the imperial court takes the time to deal with this matter, An Guirong will definitely be removed, and Xi Shu is likely to be promoted to Guizhou's right to participate in politics because of his merits, and become the third in command in Guizhou's administrative system.

Not long after, Song Gongzi also learned from the Song clan and entered the city, and came to drink with Shen Fuxuan to celebrate.

Song Jian, who once funded Wang Yuan's study, smiled from ear to ear at home, and he didn't spend a few taels of silver to actually fund a champion.

"Call Acai!" Song Jian said.

Soon, Ah Cai, the maid who had served Wang Yuan, came to Song Jian and saluted, "Master." ”

Song Jian smiled and said, "You clean up, and you will leave tomorrow to be a maid at Wang Zhuangyuan's house." ”

"Who is Wang Zhuangyuan?" Ah Cai was puzzled.

Song Jian explained: "It was Wang Erlang who was studying in the clan study, and now he is the champion. I wanted to send you to the capital, but the mountain is far away for fear of accidents, so you go to Wang Erlang's house and serve Zhuang Yuanlang's parents. ”

The next day, a team of hundreds of people set off for the Black Mountain Ridge together.

After three days of hurrying, he finally came to Chuanqingzhai and startled the owner of Fangzhai.

Hearing that Wang Yuan was the champion, the owner of Fang Zhai was also ecstatic, and immediately ordered the whole village to put up lanterns to celebrate.

"Uncle Fang, this is Wang Erlang's family!" The leader of the village went over.

Weng Zhizhi looked at the few low houses with earthen walls and grass roofs, and said with emotion: "It's not easy to be a champion, so poor but able to leap into the dragon gate, he should be a model for the world's scholars." ”

Professor Zhang said with a smile: "Uncle Fang is right, the noble son from a poor family is even more precious, and all living beings should learn." ”

Wang Quan and Wang Meng were called back from the ground, and their trousers were still covered with a lot of mud.

There were not enough clay bowls at home, so Wang Jiang and Wang Fang went to the neighbors to borrow bowls, so they poured a bowl of water for everyone who was happy.

The two good news officials looked at each other, they both felt a little headache, they worked hard for thousands of miles, just to get the reward, but they didn't expect the champion's family to be so poor.

Fortunately, Weng Zhizhi can be a man, and he gave them twenty taels yesterday, otherwise I am afraid that this trip will be in vain.

"Brother Yuan'er is really the champion?" Wang Quan smiled from ear to ear.

Weng Zhizhi held Wang Quan's hand and said cordially: "Ling Langyu jumped into the dragon gate and broke the famine in Guizhou, thanks to the careful upbringing of the two of them. ”

Wang Quan said stupidly: "I don't understand anything, I will farm, and it is Brother Yuan who fights for his own luck." ”

Weng Zhizhi suddenly shouted: "Come on, break the door!" ”

The two officials carried hammers in their hands and ran directly to smash the gate of Wang's house, and Wang Jiang exclaimed: "I can't do it!" ”

Shen Fuxuan hurriedly reassured: "Sister-in-law, this is a great joy for changing the court." You should also find a stonemason in the wall, and set up a champion and the first archway in front of the door. ”

Weng Zhizhi asked the staff to take out a piece of rice paper, handed it to Wang Quan, and said, "I have already written the words 'champion and first'. Xi Vice Xian also wrote a statement to record Ling Lang's unprecedented feat, Guizhou City should set up a monument to engrave, and another stone tablet should be erected in the village. ”

Seeing that Wang Yuan's family was poor, Weng Zhizhi took out another fifty taels of silver and handed it over to Wang Quan to improve the family situation - all at public expense.

Generally speaking, even if there is a champion in the local government, the government will not spend so much, but who made Wang Yuan unprecedented!

In fact, the Wang family is not as poor as imagined, they can eat eggs every once in a while, and they have enough oil and salt. Wang Quan and Wang Jiang were thrifty and thrifty, used the silver to buy a ploughing ox, and hired newly ascended refugees as tenant farmers, reclaiming several acres of wasteland.

No matter how you say it, you can be regarded as a small landlord.

But outsiders don't know, after the officials and scholars returned to the city, they were all preaching how Wang Yuan was poor and studying hard, and there were various inspirational stories about Wang Yuan.

Shen Fuxuan naturally would not let go of this opportunity, and made up more and more stories about how he met robbers, escaped death and came to Chuanqingzhai, and how he taught Wang Yuan to read and write. After repeating it hundreds of times, he believed it himself, as if he was really rescued by the Wang family's father and son.

Another half a month passed.

When the capital came again, Li Ying was awarded the general banner of Jinyiwei and ordered to go to the south of the capital to perform his duties. And Shen Fuxuan was also rehabilitated, officially washed away from exile, and promoted to Jining Prefecture.

The former was arranged by the emperor, and the latter was arranged by the officials.

The champion said those words in the Huagai Palace, and the officials naturally had to move, otherwise where would the faces of the big guys go? In Wang Yuan's mouth, Shen Fuxuan was exiled because he angered the eunuchs, and he must be promoted anyway, which belongs to the political correctness of the civilian clique.

"I'm going to be an official?" Shen Fuxuan was a little dizzy.

Xi Shu laughed: "Congratulations to Brother Shen." ”

Shen Fuxuan's ideal is to be the seventh grade of the county, and now he is only one step away, because the state judgment belongs to the seventh grade. Moreover, Jining is still a big state, and the Jining Prefecture sentence is already more nourishing than the magistrates of many small counties - provided that the rebel army does not fight over.

A few days later, Shen Fuxuan and Li Ying went north together, and the inspirational story of Guizhou's champion spread more and more widely, and there was even such a thing as digging a wall and stealing light.
