The ministers of the southern study room have all gone to Changchun Garden to wait, and the emperor has recently dispatched troops to conquer Galdan, which is very busy. From time to time, the ministers were called to the Ningju to ask long and short questions. The emperor is thoughtful, and he has to ask about the details. The ministers were even more vigilant, and did not dare to slack off on all matters related to the northwest, and immediately heard about them.

At this time, the south study received a few excerpts from the salary, and Mingzhu called Chen Tingjing and Xu Qianxue and went to the emperor in front of the emperor. Mingzhu said: "After receiving the excerpt from the Shangshu Alani of the Lifan Academy, I reported that Wang Jiwen, the governor of Yunnan, was very hard-working, and all the silver, grain, and military horses levied in Yunnan had arrived in Xining!" Alani is here to ask for credit for Wang Jiwen. ”

The emperor was overjoyed and said: "I have long said that Wang Jiwen is not a person who can only read dead books, he entered Yunnan with the army, and made great efforts to quell Wu Sangui's rebellion!" Tingjing, such a good governor who is in charge of managing money, why have I never heard you say half a good word about him? ”

Chen Tingjing said: "Wang Jiwen's salary is so fast, it is indeed unexpected. The minister has always been worried that Yunnan will have difficulties in co-ordinating. Yunnan was not rich in the first place, and it was also war-torn for many years, but now the copper tax has been abolished. The minister originally thought that Wang Jiwen should ask the court to reduce or reduce the salary. ”

The emperor said: "But Wang Jiwen still completed the assistance as scheduled." ”

Chen Tingjing said: "The minister thinks that a good official of the dynasty must not only be loyal to the court, but also love the people. If you only care about asking for merit from the court, regardless of the suffering of the people, you will not be a good official. When the minister said this, he was not commenting on Wang Jiwen. ”

The emperor was very unhappy and said, "I really don't know where Chen Tingjing and Wang Jiwen's festival came from. ”

Chen Tingjing said: "The emperor, the minister and Wang Jiwen did not have a festival, the minister just speculated on the basis of reason, and talked about the matter. ”

The emperor knew that Chen Tingjing's words were reasonable, but the imperial court needed to encourage the provinces to cooperate for the time being. The emperor groaned slightly, then promoted Wang Jiwen's official and said: "Wang Jiwen is the acting governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, and he is still in charge of Yunnan affairs!" ”

Mingzhu said: "The minister immediately drafts the decree." ”

The emperor asked again: "Who is the right governor of Huguang?" ”

Mingzhu said: "The Jiuqing meeting has been discussed in accordance with the decree, and it is planned to promote Zhang Wang, the governor of Hunan, to make up for it!" ”

Chen Tingjing participated in the Jiuqing meeting yesterday, and of course he wished that Zhang Wang would be the governor of Huguang. But after all, he was close to Zhang Wang, and he didn't speak at the meeting.

The emperor said: "Zhang Wang is also a person who can do things, and he is also honest and honest as an official, so he is accurate." ”

Xu Qianxue played again: "The emperor, there is just an excerpt of Wang Jiwen here, the Grand View Building has been completed, please ask the emperor to write the name of the building!" ”

The emperor said: "Wang Jiwen has made meritorious service in patrolling Yunnan, and this beautiful thing that has been famous for thousands of years will be left to Wang Jiwen to do." ”

Wang Jiwen was promoted to the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, and his colleagues, subordinate officials, guests, and squires had to celebrate. On this day, the governor's yamen held a banquet, and hundreds of guests were overwhelmed. Wang Jiwen raised his glass and said: "I, Wang Jiwen, can be appreciated by the emperor, thanks to the great help of the princes!" I'm thankful here! ”

Wang Jiwen raised his glass first and drank it all. All the guests congratulated and toasted. After drinking for a long time, Wang Jiwen suddenly found that he didn't see Kan Zhenzhao, so he quietly asked Yang Wenqi: "Hey, why don't you see Kan Gong?" ”

Yang Wenqi said: "Lord Huizhitai, Kan Gong went out early in the morning, maybe he was in Daguanlou again. ”

Wang Jiwen was unhappy, but said: "Kan Gong has worked hard day and night for Daguanlou. ”

Yang Wenqi said: "Lord Zhengtai, Yongshu said something ugly, and his Kan Zhenzhao is too high!" On such a happy day, no matter how busy he is, he has to drink a cup of tea before he goes! ”

Wang Jiwen patted Yang Wenqi on the shoulder and said: "Wenqi can't say that, Kan Gong is not formal, it is the style of ancient celebrities." Let them drink here, and you can follow me to the Grand View Tower to have a look. ”

Wang Jiwen and Yang Wenqi left the governor's yamen and rode their horses to the shore of Dianchi Lake. Looking at the Grand View Building from afar, Wang Jiwen was quite proud, thinking that his life's work would be passed down from this building, and he could really be famous through the ages! When I arrived downstairs in Daguan, I saw two officials standing outside the building, bowed down and said, "Lord Zhengtai, Kan Gong ordered that no one should go up." ”

Wang Jiwen turned around and said, "Wen Qi is waiting here, I'll go up and take a look." ”

Wang Jiwen went upstairs alone, only to see Kan Zhenzhao holding a wine jug in one hand and waving an inscription in the other: Daguanlou.

Kan Zhenzhao looked at himself for a long time, nodded slightly, and wrote a couplet:

The heavenly realm is flat, fast and blue, shallow and deep, and the picture is drawn to the scene of agriculture and mulberry.

The cloud screen is always standing, looking at the green place of Wanfeng, thick and faint, and the scale of this pavilion is looped.

Kan Zhenzhao was engrossed, not knowing that Wang Jiwen was quietly standing behind him. Wang Jiwen couldn't help but shake his head and nod his head, and said, "Okay, good, good words!" ”

Kan Zhenzhao looked back at Wang Jiwen, did not speak, leaned his neck and took a sip of wine, and wrote again: Wang Jiwen, the governor of Yunnan, wrote a joint title.

Wang Jiwen pretended to be surprised, looked at Kan Zhenzhao and said: "Kan Gong, you can't do it, Wang doesn't dare to do such a thing of fame and reputation, for fear that future generations will laugh." ”

Kan Zhenzhao was full of wine, and said with a smile: "Kan is just a mountain villager, and he will not leave a name in the world." Future generations only know that there is a master of Taiwan, and they will not know that there is Kan. ”

When Wang Jiwen heard this, he bowed deeply to Kan Zhenzhao and said, "Kan Gong's good intentions, Jiwen thank you very much!" Please accept my worship! ”

Kan Zhenzhao was already drunk, looking at Wang Jiwen with a smile, and he didn't return the salute, still drinking wildly with a wine jug. A flock of white gulls flew past the front of the building and gradually moved away.
