Daming talker

Chapter 52 The Way of Literature
If you want to ask, what is the real cheat for a traveler who is familiar with human history, it must be knowledge about connections, this is the hardest cheat.

If you don't have this knowledge, if you meet someone surnamed Feng in the school book office, you will find that this person seems to be unknown in the history textbooks, and you will probably miss it.

If you don't have this knowledge, you will definitely ignore an even less famous Wang tax envoy at Hushu Pass.

Therefore, ordinary people should read more online bars that are entertaining and informative about interpersonal relationships, so that they can learn more about the real connections hidden behind the history textbooks, and only then can they seize the opportunity if they travel through time.

In fact, even Professor Lin, who has a little knowledge of humanities and history, almost ignored Wang Shuishi.

Fortunately, Xing Yushi, the inspector of the Eight Houses, arrived in time and exchanged a few passionate words with the tax envoy Wang, which made Professor Lin aware of some clues, and finally found out that the tax envoy Wang came from the "Shandong Xincheng Wang Family".

This is a family that can make Professor Lin, who is desperate for fame and protection, scream crazily. It is the most miraculous family in the history of imperial examinations.

The tax envoy Wang's name is Wang Zhidu, a descendant of the Wang family in Xincheng, and three Jinshi were born in his generation.

Wang Zhiyuan, the second son of the Zizi family, is currently the left servant of the household department and the governor of Taicang. He is a very hard-headed real power faction.

And because he works in the Ministry of Household Affairs, according to official customs, he is called Wang Situ, who is currently the talker of the Wang family.

In fact, Wang Shishi Wang Zhidu and Wang Zhiyuan Wang Situ are cousins ​​and have the same grandfather, but they will not be distinguished in detail if they are not separated.

In addition to Wang Situ, Wang Taxshi also had an elder brother Wang Zhiyou who worked in the Ministry of Rites and was also a Jinshi.

In addition, the tax envoy Wang also has an elder brother Wang Zhifu who was born in Juren and is currently the co-magistrate of the Daming Mansion.

The next generation of the Zigzag generation is the Xiangzi generation, and there are currently three Jinshi, which are the "three nephews Jinshi" in the mouth of Wang Shuishi.

Although Wang Xiangkun, the eldest son of the Xiang family, is lower in seniority than Wang Shuishi, he was admitted as a Jinshi as early as Jiajing 44, and now he is the right minister of Zhejiang.

But the most famous person of the Xiang generation in history is Wang Situ's son Wang Xiangqian, one of the biggest border town bosses in the late Ming Dynasty.

Later, during the Chongzhen period of Tianqi, Wang Xiangqian, who was in his 80s, was pulled out to serve as Minister of the Ministry of War and Governor of Jiliao.

Could it be an ordinary person who held this position in the late Ming Dynasty?

But the future Wang Dushi is now only the deputy envoy of the Henan Provincial Superintendent, and has a seniority in the fourth-rank position, but he is still better than the Wang tax envoy.

Another nephew, Jinshi Wang Xiangmeng, happened to be one subject earlier than Wang Shuishi. He was a Jinshi in the eighth year of Wanli, and he is now the supervisory censor of Jiangxi Province.

If you think that in the early days of the Wanli Dynasty, a family of six Jinshi is the pinnacle of the Wang family in Xincheng, you are very wrong.

In history, the sons and nephews of Wang Shuishi, Xiangzi generation produced a total of nine Wen Jinshi and one Wu.

In one generation, there are nine Wen Jinshi, which is definitely a miracle among miracles in the history of imperial examinations.

Generally speaking, one Jinshi can be produced in one generation, or even one Jinshi can be produced in two generations, which can support the entire family.There are nine Jinshi in one generation, and novels dare not make up like this.

That's why the Wang family has really achieved Jinshi's success, and it is better to raise people than dogs.There were thirteen Jinshi in the three generations, and the total number of people with merit and fame was as many as thirty.

If all memorial archways are to be erected, it is not a problem for three generations of Jinshi and Juren to erect eighteen archways in front of the Wang family gate.

According to rumors in the late Ming Dynasty, the Wang family in Xincheng, Shandong is equivalent to the northern branch of the Donglin Party.

There are rumors in the late Ming Dynasty two, when Kong Youde, king of Dingnan in the Qing Dynasty, was still in the Ming Dynasty, his soldiers robbed a chicken from the servant of the royal family.

Then the Wang family had to be reasonable and unforgiving, Kong Youde had no choice but to be forced to rebel because of a chicken, and embarked on the road of defecting to the enemy and becoming the king with a different surname.

If this is the peak of the Wang family, it may not be over yet.In the original history, in the Kangxi Dynasty in the early Qing Dynasty, the Wang family in Xincheng also had a Wang Yuyang.

At that time, Wang Yuyang's status was similar to that of Wang Shizhen's old alliance leader today, and he was also a leader of the literary world.

Knowing the miracle of the Wang family's imperial examination, one can understand why Professor Lin, who is desperate for fame and fame, almost went mad.

It was as if he had eaten the heart of a bear and the guts of a leopard, asking if the younger sister of the Wang family was married.

There is no other reason, but Lin Tailai thinks that the Wang family's genes are really good, if they combine with him, the offspring must be excellent!

But after Lin Tailai said it, he immediately knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, how could he speak out the fantasy in his heart?

So he hurriedly remedied and said: "Xincheng Wang's family, let me be like thunder, and under the shock of my mind, I will say anything!"

The king's capital, also known as the tax envoy, scolded unceremoniously: "Nonsense! Can a family name scare you into a daze, and even talk nonsense?"

Lin Tailai hastily explained: "Actually, your mansion has some connections with your subordinates, is it possible that your elder brother is the king of the court, Situ?

The subordinate is the subordinate of Wang Situ's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate's subordinate level.

So after hearing about the Wang family, I was shocked! "

Capital of Kings: "."

Are you, Lin Tailai, talking tongue twisters?

At first it sounded like nonsense, but when I thought about it carefully, I couldn't refute it.

His elder brother Wang Zhiyuan Wang Situ is the left servant of the household department and the governor of Taicang, the highest person in charge of the money and grain collection business line in the country.

The governor of Jiangnan generally also supervises Jiangnan's money and grain, and is the subordinate of the governor of Taicang in the money and grain collection business line.

Further down are the general judges in charge of grain in various prefectures, further down are the county magistrates in charge of grain, and further down are the editorial staff of the grain department, and further down are the temporary clerks of the grain department.

Therefore, Lin Tailai and Lin Shushou claimed that he and Wang Situ were the superiors and subordinates of the money and food business system, and there was nothing wrong with it in theory.

Seeing Wang Shuishi's face gradually softening, Lin Tailai thought to himself, there is a sentence in that chapter of the grain book that is right, and his only real identity at present is that of the grain secretary, and the rest are all false names.

Immediately, the tax envoy Wang said proudly: "All the famous families in Shandong want to hire our daughter from the Wang family. With our Wang family's family tradition, we won't marry a prodigal son from the south far away!"

Lin Tailai changed the subject, "Just now the prince asked how to use poetry to describe the unfulfilled situation in life.

In fact, I finished playing a few days ago. Ah no, after feeling something in my heart, I wrote three sentimental poems, the second of which is quite suitable for your state of mind, prince.

Meat-eating has never been a tiger's head, ten years of books and swords Haitianqiu.Fortunately, Shiwen didn't meet Huang Zu, and he was still embarrassed by Ma Zhou today.

Since it is difficult for you to be useful in the world, how can it be that I am not worthy of the truth.It should be known that taking Yun Zhi when he was young, he was once the best in the world. "

After Wang Zhidu finished appreciating it, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "This poem of yours really touched my heart. By the way, what about the other two poems?"

In fact, Lin Tailai realized the problem after being counter-killed by Master Feng Er last time, and he was not prepared to take out the song "Fifteen Southeastern States of Gold Powder" easily.

But Wang Zhidu took the initiative to ask, and Professor Lin didn't need to hide it, so he wrote it all for Wang Zhidu to read.

After Wang Zhidu finished reading it, he blamed and said, "Why didn't you take it out earlier? Otherwise, I could use this round fan to get ahead and humiliate that Xing Xun directly face to face!"

Lin Tailai: "."

How much resentment does the tax envoy have towards Xing Xun?
Wang Zhidu can finally be sure now that the giant man in front of him, who is bigger than himself, has real skills in poetry and literature, and is simply all-rounder in subject matter and style.

So he also confessed: "My brother said last year that although my Wang family has a prosperous career, but it is a little lacking in literature and art, it is not as famous as the southern gentry's talents.

Therefore, my brother encourages brothers, nephews and nephews, if they are successful in their careers, they should put in more effort in literature, so as to get famous, so as to conform to the current impetuous trend.

The Jiangnan Poetry Season is here recently, and I have written a few poems, but they are all average.I beg you to help me get it right and add some color, it would be much appreciated. "

Then Wang Zhidu took out some manuscript paper, Lin Tailai took it and read it.

Wang Zhidu asked with great anticipation: "How? If you correct me, how can these articles be improved?"

After being silent for a while, Professor Lin suddenly said in a big way: "If the prince really needs works, I'll give you some directly. You can choose the theme!"

The tax emissary of the king immediately said angrily: "It must not be like this! Is my king's capital a plagiarist?"

It is one thing to ask others to help revise and improve, but it is another thing to directly take other people's poems as your own, which violates his bottom line.

Lin Tailai persuaded: "I won't tell it myself, and others don't know."

The Wang tax envoy still firmly refused: "God knows and the earth knows, my king's capital will never do anything to shame the Wang family!"

Lin Tailai also became a little irritable, you are embarrassing me, Professor Lin!

How can he change poems, he can only "original"!Asking him to write a new song is much easier than changing a new one!
But Wang Zhidu was too concerned about the bottom line, and Lin Tailai couldn't help it, so he could only bite the bullet and make changes on the manuscript paper.

After a few minutes of incense burning, the tax envoy Wang looked at the revised poems with complicated expressions.

For example, for the poem Qilu, he used 56 characters in his original manuscript, but after Lin Tailai rectified it, only seven or eight characters were used in the original manuscript.

So the tax envoy Wang was also confused. Is this correct, or has it been rewritten?
Forget it, don't care so much, send the work to the capital first!
Let elder brothers Wang Situ and Wang Licao, nephew Wang Yushi, and younger sister be shocked by their talents.

There is also Wang Fangbo, the eldest nephew from Zhejiang, and Wang Fuxian, the second nephew from Henan, neither of them can be let go!

The literary counterattack of the little brother and uncle starts from within the family!
Then the tax envoy Wang reciprocated to Professor Lin: "Didn't you come to Hushuguan to do something?
I will assign you three boats and a river boat to assist you in your investigation.If there are not enough manpower, add more soldiers. "

"Enough is enough!" Lin Tailai said hastily: "I have always convinced people with virtue and moved people with reason. I pay attention to a person who has both ability and integrity. I never need too many people to do things!"

Wang Shuishi said with emotion: "You can't judge by appearance, you really are a person who relies on talent to make a living."

Behind the Customs Office is the Town God's Temple. After the Wang Tax Envoy greeted them, Professor Lin and his staff stayed in the Town God's Temple that night.

Don't ask Hushuguan, a town-level area, why there is a Town God's Temple that can be matched at least at the county level, but it is too special here.

Everything is going well so far, and Professor Lin is full of ambition.He came to Hushuguan not only to help others, but also to have his own way of literature!
With his current status, it is rare to see famous prostitutes, but this time there are a lot of them, especially the famous prostitutes of the Qinhuai River who are more popular than the famous prostitutes in Suzhou!

Anyone who has read the history of the late Ming Dynasty knows what Qinhuai twelve beauties and Qinhuai eight beauties are, but who remembers who is on the flower list in Suzhou?

So this is a rare opportunity to spread my talent to Nanjing, another great cultural center, for free.

"Are you ready?" Lin Tailai asked.

While wiping the bamboo-jointed whip, the Zhang family brothers replied in a confident voice: "Ready!"

　Don't you feel moved to update a chapter so early!Let's count the votes!

　　In addition, Wang Zhidu actually came to serve as a tax envoy ten years later. I am here to advance the effect of the novel. The same is true for Yuan Hongdao who will appear later, and it is also ten years earlier. There is also Wang Situ. already retired.Don't make a mistake if you have traveled through time.
