Located in the northeast of the capital in the Dongzhi Gate of the North Juxian Fang, the Wuyue Temple is not as good as the Berlin Temple in the same square to enjoy the royal worship, and it depends on the incense and silver of the believers and the lodging value of the travelers in Beijing on weekdays.

Compared with the size of the inner city, in addition to eating a little vegetarian, this place is also clean and comfortable, and there are many people who live here in Beijing.

Gan Jiyin accompanied his two nephews to Beijing to try, saying that his nephew was actually not a few years younger than himself, he was in his forties and his face was a little weathered, and now in addition to concentrating on his business in Beijing, he is taking care of the lives of his two nephews. It is said that these two nephews are not his sister Gan's biological sons, and now they are both in Beijing for the second time, and they look full of ambition, and the younger one has a wide range of friends.

In addition to listening to the meeting, he only went back and forth from time to time, telling the two family members and the Taoist officials in the temple to make some vegetarian tea to entertain a few people who took the same exam and their seniors.

A group of people chatted about charcoal fire and tea in the narrow meditation room, but they didn't lose their interest.

The township examination is one out of thirty, and the general examination is roughly one out of ten, which seems to be much easier, and the newly announced that the number of candidates for this year's examination has increased to 350, which is 50 more than the previous session, so that the people who went to Beijing this time feel a lot easier.

"It's a pity that the teacher can't come to today's meeting, it's a pity." In the meditation room, a white scholar in his thirties was drinking tea and sighed, it was Gan Jiyin's young nephew.

"Chang Geng doesn't have to sigh, uncle is also to avoid suspicion." A slightly longer young man next to him comforted the white scholar.

The scholar smiled bitterly, "I naturally know this, but I missed the teacher's sixtieth birthday this year, and now I still can't gather in Beijing." ”

The teacher's surname in the scholar's mouth is Deng Zhen conscience, he is a Jinshi in the forty-first year of Wanli, and he was originally selected to serve as the Xuancheng County Commander in the Ningguo Mansion of Nanzhili, and he was his teacher when he was young. It was Wai Lang, a member of the Ministry of Rites and Ceremonies who was only transferred this year, and is now busy compiling the "Science and Technology Treaty" for the next year's examination, so he can't gather with the juniors who came to refer to it. The slightly older scholar surnamed Shuai Mingzhong, is the nephew of Deng Liangzhi, and is also the same door of the Baijing scholar, only three years later than his uncle, he can be regarded as a young talent in this generation, he is also the end of the year to return to Beijing from the Jinhua County Order, Xuan was promoted to Zhejiang Province to supervise the imperial history, has not yet sent a specific inspection dispatch, so now a little leisure.

The news that Deng Liangzhi could not come made several Jiangxi compatriots who originally heard the news also regretted, a slender face in the seat, the one with a slight beard on both cheeks was called Jiang Yueguang, and the other was called Tu Shaoxuan with a beautiful face, both of them were from Xinjian County, Nanchang Prefecture, and the owner of this room who was born in Fengxin County, the same prefecture is a good friend, and the same door of Bailudong Academy, and they are all the same list of people in Wanli 43 years, and this time they are also together in Beijing for reference.

In addition to these two people, there is also a man with a red face, also around forty years old, named Liu Duo, a person from Ji'an Mansion, and the same year as Shuaizhong, and now he is in charge of the Criminal Department.

Liu Duozheng felt a little disappointed that he didn't see Deng Liangzhi, so he said: "You shouldn't choose to be here in the Wuyue Temple of Laoshizi, you can't even drink a glass of hot wine." ”

Shuai Zhong smiled when he heard this, "I think that if you drink and make a mistake, it will be better to touch less in this cup in the future." ”

This Liu Duo Liu I act quite straightforwardly on weekdays, only embarrassment in one wine word, when the palace exam was overdosed, I fell to the top three because of overdrinking and writing policies, fortunately, the palace exam did not fall to the candidates, otherwise I would regret it for life.

Liu Duo said: "Speaking of this wine, I recently got two bottles of Yipin. ”

"Oh? Is it the autumn dew white in Shandong or the golden dew in Kuang? Shuai Zhong quipped.

"No, you may not believe it, but this wine was sent by someone from Zeng Longjito, named Guoshi Wushuang."

"Isn't Zeng Dong an official in Guangdong? What good wine can be there? Shuai Zhong was also stunned when he heard this, it is not surprising that he has this question, such as the so-called seven famous wines today I have not heard of a single one from Guangdong. Zeng Dong and Liu Duo are kind, but they have little news from Xiangshan County, but they don't want to send Liu Duo any wine.

Liu Duo said: "It is indeed in Guangdong, it is said that this wine has a great origin, I heard that it is made by the relics of the former Song Dynasty, sold from overseas, its wine color is pure and free of impurities, the entrance is sweet and fragrant full of mouth and nose, I only drank it once and was reluctant to treasure it." And this wine is actually packed in a glass bottle, and this bottle alone makes people love it. ”

The wine he said was actually a new product of Sanya Distillery in Guangdong, which was originally developed for medical use and by the way to differentiate the local Fengjiao Hui, but he did not expect that this wine was very popular with the locals after it came out, not only Huihui and businessmen flocked to it, but even Liming and the religious Chezhidan have become consumer groups. Fu Xiaofei thought about it and felt that it was another way to make money, so he simply took a unique name and packaged it to Guangdong to test the waters. As for the other version with rhubarb, Princess Datang was sent to Macao for export, and it is said that it sold very well.

As he was gossiping, Shuai Zheng suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, there is another one who is coming in the same year today." ”

"Which one?"

"The one who didn't take the temple exam last time."

"Didn't take the temple exam?" Liu Duo looked at Shuai Zhong with strange eyes, as if he was searching for something in his thoughts, and suddenly he seemed to think and said, "Is that Ma Yiying from Guizhou?" ”

"Ma Shiying." Handsome.

"Yes, that's the name, why is he coming to this party?" But immediately he suddenly realized, "He doesn't have to take the exam, no wonder he's so leisurely." ”

"Actually, it's not for this Wenhui, it's one of his junior disciples who wants to visit San Lang." Shuai Zhong said and looked at the white scholar next to him.

"Greetings with Saburo? Brother, when did you become so famous? "The eldest brother of the Baijing scholar is talking on the side, if you talk about Fengxin Er Song in Jiangxi, maybe there is some reputation in Shilin, but this is a Beijing teacher, and the other party is a scholar far away in Guizhou, no matter how you look at it, you can't catch up with it.

The white scholar was also at a loss when he heard this, "Are you really here to visit me?" ”

As soon as he asked this, he heard a person outside say loudly: "Brother Shuai Nian, I'm late." ”

As soon as the words fell, a young man dressed freely and freely entered the backyard with three or two servants and went straight to the meditation room, followed by Gan Jiying and a Taoist official who led the way.

After Ma Shiying entered the door, he first arched, "I've seen a few senior brothers, and the kid Ma Shiying is polite." ”

After he finished speaking, he let a young man behind him be Wang Xingping.

Wang Xingping also learned from him, "I've seen all the seniors, I don't know which one is Mr. Song Changgeng?" ”

Hearing this, the scholar looked him up and down, and said with a smile: "Down there is Song Yingxing." ”

"It turns out that Your Excellency is Mr. Song, and the kid Guiyang Wang Xingping is polite." After speaking, Wang Xingping bowed again.

The two parties exchanged greetings and sat down one after another, here Song Yingxing's brother Song Yingsheng and Shuai Zhong also introduced Ma Shiying and others one by one, Wang Xingping naturally did not let it go, he bowed deeply to a white fat middle-aged man who Song Yingxing had just introduced, "It turns out that Mr. Zhai Yun is actually the descendant of Wen Zhengong (note: Yang Shiqi), it is really a blessing." ”

Yang Jiazuo, known as Mr. Zhai Yun, also hurriedly returned the gift.

Wang Xingping said again: "Mr. is a native of Taihe, I don't know if I have seen Mr. Qingluo (note: Guo Zizhang)?" Guo Gong has been raising Qianqian for ten years, and he has a lot of kindness in my hometown. ”

Yang Jiazuo was slightly saddened when he heard this, "How haven't I seen it, Guo Xianggong returned to his hometown in the thirty-seventh year of Wanli, and I was taught by him in my hometown before I was admitted to the Jinshi, but unfortunately I received news from home a few days ago that Guo Gong had passed away." ”

"Why did you die? It's a pity that I want to stop by when I go back to my hometown. Wang Xingping shook his head sadly, anyway, the purpose of the relationship has been achieved, and it has nothing to do with him whether others die or not.

Shuai Zhong also said: "It just so happens that my brother is also here today, and the thing that I rushed to ask for will fall on him." ”

Liu Duo was disgusted when he heard this, "You didn't tell me before, what is the matter?" ”

Ma Shiying said: "Actually, it is to help my junior brother, he is now in the Guiyang Guard, helping Fujun Zhang Xianggong Tuntian to train soldiers, this time he wants to ask some craftsmen from the Criminal Department who have been sentenced to exile to help build weapons." ”

As soon as Wang Xingping heard that this Master Liu was the head of the Criminal Department, he happened to say his request again, and did not forget to add, "My uncle and Zuo Zanshan and Xu Gong have agreed to write for this matter." ”

"Who is Uncle Unconsulted?" A hint of discoloration flashed in Liu Duo's eyes.

Wang Xingping said: "Wang Shaoqing of Taifu Temple." ”

"It turned out to be Senior Wang."

Wang Xingping then added, "In two days, I will visit your Qi Langzhong, and I will also talk about this matter, if all the princes of the court and the central government are willing to help, this matter will become the majority, and in the future, Guizhou will change the land and return to the stream, and you are all heroes of the Ming Dynasty." ”

At this time, Song Yingxing interjected, "Brother Wang Xian is looking for Song for this reason, right?" Although I don't have an official status, if it is true as you say, my eldest brother and I can also write and say things. ”

Wang Xingping said with a smile: "It's not about this, I asked Mr. De to be proficient in the way of things, especially the study of agriculture and industry, now Zhang Fu Military Commission and I am involved in the training of troops in Tuntian, I don't know if Mr. is interested in accompanying me to Guiyang to help one or two?" ”

He asked directly, Song Yingxing was not perfunctory, so he really discussed it with Wang Xingping, during which he also pointed out the fallacy of the so-called Gewu of Yangming Xinxue, he has always advocated the Guan Xue of Song Confucianism and Zhang Zai, and even put forward a term that made Wang Xingping refreshing - Kaiwu. Song Yingxing combined his own cognition in the folk observation, thinking that everything has its own reason, and the process of understanding the truth of the world is obviously more appropriate to call opening things.

In the end, this 'literary meeting' was a little nondescript, and did not make some decent articles, but when it came to Song Yingxing's most proud people's livelihood skills, he still talked about it for two or three hours, from how the silk weaving industry in the south of the Yangtze River used early male silkworms with late female silkworms to match more high-quality silk silkworm varieties, to how the farmers in Jiangxi used human and animal filth and oil to fatten the fields, and also discussed the use of the back yin to the sun and bone lime in the fields, and then to how to ensure the proportion of water and seedlings in rice cultivation in the southwest, and even the topic of family planning was involved. These topics that made others just think that Song Sheng's erudition were all practical means in Wang Xingping's ears, and they strengthened his mind to invite Song Yingxing to Guizhou.

And Song Yingxing is often able to connect with Wang Xingping's own ideas, and he can talk about all kinds of people's livelihood learning, and he also admires this young man.

In this way, until sunset, the two of them were still unsatisfied, and they felt that they hated each other.

Before leaving, Song Yingxing sent Wang Xingping and his entourage to the gate of Wuyue Temple alone, and Wang Xingping finally heard Song Yingxing say the long-awaited sentence.

"If you can't get into this course, I'm willing to go to Guizhou with you to experience it."
