Unknowingly, he gave Wang Yanbi a calligraphy lesson. After finishing the post, Wang Hui came to his senses and quickly apologized: "I have been Mr. Dong Heng for decades, and I can't change my habit of being a teacher..."

Wang Yanbi took the pen and wrote a few words according to Wang Hui's instructions. He felt that the stagnation he had been feeling since he got up in the morning was gone. He was overjoyed and saluted: "I originally invited Mr. Meng to come over to drink and enjoy the plum blossoms. Mr. Meng gave me some advice."

, and it was good to make progress again, but it was Yanbi who took advantage. Come on, come on, come on, please take a seat..."

Wang Hui admired this young man very much. He had considered recruiting students when he didn't know his identity before. Now that his identity was revealed and he saw that he was not proud of his wealth, his favorable impression grew even stronger.

When the food and drinks arrived, they were all dishes that Wang Hui had never seen before in Daming Mansion. It wasn't until Wang Hui was half drunk that he remembered something: "Hey, why didn't I see Coach Wu..."

"Teacher Cheng!" Wang Yanbi gave Wang Hui another cup of Yongchun Chenlu: "Teacher Cheng was born as a hero and doesn't like singing about the wind and the moon. He went to see his friends off... Come on, come on, Yanbi respects Mr.

One cup.”

…

By the time Wang Hui sobered up, it was already the next day, and he couldn't even remember when he was sent back by Wang Yanbi.

However, Yongchun Chenlu is indeed a good wine. I was so drunk yesterday that I didn’t know what was going on, and today I didn’t even get drunk.

Wang Hui was shocked when he walked out of the inner room. All the furnishings in his home had been changed. If it weren't for Gui's arrangement of gifts, Wang Hui wouldn't have believed that this was his own home.

He quickly asked: "What's going on?"

When Gui Shi saw him getting up, she became angry: "I went to Mr. Xu's house for a banquet yesterday and got very drunk! When the young master sent you back, he was still talking nonsense!"

"Ah?" Wang Hui was frightened: "What happened to me, Hu Qin?"

Gui gave him a roll of his eyes: "You were clamoring to give Mr. Xu the title of Jinshi. No, Mr. Xu sent all kinds of furnishing gifts last night, saying they were teacher gifts. There are still a bunch of them in the study.

, come and take a look.”

Walking into his small study, Wang Hui immediately discovered many treasures: "This is Zhuge's pen...this is...this is the precious ink made by the young master's father, and this is Mi Dian's Dharma book..."

Almost everything that Wang Hui touched and talked about in Wang Yanbi's study yesterday appeared in Wang Hui's study today.

Gui looked at the crazy Wang Hui and asked worriedly: "Husband, Mr. Xu, he..."

Wang Hui slowly sat down on the chair: "What Mr. Xu? He is the only child of the eldest princess of Xu State, the secretary of the shogunate of the Fourth Military Envoy, and the prince's son of Wang Fu!"

"Ah?" Gui Shi was shocked: "The prince has a distinguished status and is the cousin of the current official family, but why do you want to win over you, a person who is an outstanding official?"

Wang Hui reached out and touched the Zhuge Zihao pen on the table: "Maybe yesterday's conversation over wine was just business..."

"Jinshi?" Gui said: "That's not possible. More than ten years ago, my husband asserted that Neo-Confucianism would become a prominent school sooner or later, and that sooner or later it would be included in the imperial examination."

"Looking at things like this now, my husband's words are actually true. I think Mr. Wang studied under the Su family. He was taught by County Lord Situsu since he was a child. He is a master of Neo-Confucianism. How can he be so rare?"

"When Neo-Confucianism is included in the imperial examination, and the title of Jinshi is not yet within reach, why do I need your help, husband?"

"So, the young master is very ambitious..." Wang Hui sighed: "This is because he deliberately abandons his strong points and sticks to his shortcomings. He also wants to stand out and win the title of Jinshi without any flaws."

"Why is this necessary?"

"It's not why it's necessary, it's self-confidence. Yesterday, when I talked with the young master, the article's moral principles and current affairs were all extraordinary. It's really not difficult to become a Jinshi with a little thought and practice."

"I didn't expect that a letter from me would involve such a fate..."

Gui Shi said happily: "I didn't know my identity before, but you have the idea of ​​​​accepting a disciple. Isn't this a good thing?"

"This is not the right idea for a good wife." Wang Hui said: "How can you, the young master, accept someone like me who has a reputation as your teacher?"

Seeing the reluctance for him in his wife's eyes, Wang Hui took his old wife's hand and said, "I have been thanking you for not giving up for many years, but I can't give you a royal decree in this life. In my husband's heart, I always feel that I am ashamed of my ancestor and my father." To you, junior sister."

Gui said angrily: "We have been an old husband and wife for decades, but why are you talking about this?"

Wang Hui said: "I already know the character of Mr. Wang. He was just pretending to solve the counterfeit money case."

"We are all old and have no children, so we might as well leave it to the young master and become a master cleaning up the guests."

"When we get old and can no longer move, some people will take care of themselves until they die. What will a good wife think?"

Gui Shi said: "I am all dependent on you, my husband. You are knowledgeable but have difficulty in developing your ambitions. From now on, it would be good if you could follow the prince and give him advice."

Wang Hui laughed and seemed to have let go of the heavy burden in his heart: "Young Master said something today that really touched my heart."

"What words?"

"He said that Situ once said that in a person's life, the nature of a gentleman and a villain has always been juxtaposed throughout it. This is a pair of contradictions that are always entangled, inexhaustible, and constantly fighting."

"The so-called gentleman is just a person who is always vigilant and wipes away, trying to get rid of the evil side of his human nature and trying to maintain the good side."

"Haha! With these words, my husband's heart has been completely wiped out. How about I try my best to help the young master in return?"

"Well!" Gui looked at her husband, who was in high spirits for the first time since that incident, with tears in her eyes: "But first we have to help the young master get the title of Jinshi!"

"Fame and fame come second." Wang Hui smiled easily: "Let's see if my husband writes an article first to put an end to Situ and the young master's hidden worries."

Within a few days, Yan Xiaoshan, the editor-in-chief of Bianjing Times, received a submission from Daming Mansion - "The Biography of the Second Prefect of Bozhou".

The text is clear and simple, and it only briefly tells the story of two former governors of Bozhou.

The first one happened in the third year of Kaiyun in the Later Jin Dynasty. The Yellow River burst its banks and surrounded the city of Bozhou. Yang Gong, the governor of Bozhou, led the army and the people to control the flood. However, no matter how hard they tried to rescue, they could not stop the flooding.

Faced with the tragic situation of the city falling and people dying, Yang Gong cried out in pain to the sky: "What are the people's fault for suffering this catastrophe? I petition to die in the line of duty and pray to heaven to save the people here from disaster!"

Just shout, throw yourself into the water and die, and the flood will fall.

After the flood receded, Yang Gong's body was found in a village. The people were grateful for Yang Gong, so they buried him there and built a temple to worship him.

The Song Dynasty conquered the world. When Taizong's eldest son Zhao Yuanzuo, King of Chu, heard about this, he wrote a poem praising him. The poem goes: "As a sacrifice, I prayed in the flood. The water was difficult to clear and stopped. The people thought of his benevolence and built a temple to worship him. Oh, how great it is." It would be too much trouble to write down in history!”

The second one happened decades ago. Li Di, the number one scholar in the Song Dynasty, had an uncle who also came to Bozhou to serve as a prefect. Unfortunately, like Yang Gong, he also did not leave his name.

One day, Duke Li was waiting at the city gate for the envoy sent by the Supervisor. When his subordinates reported that the time of eve had arrived, Duke Li hurriedly ordered to retreat.

After a while the messenger arrived, but because the city gate was closed, no one was allowed to enter.

Li Gong spoke to him in the gap between the doors, and asked the envoy to come in. Li Gong replied: "The imperial court must close the city gate during the period of You, and I cannot open this door. Please ask the envoy to stay outside the city for the night and see you tomorrow."

Another day, Mr. Li received a mail package from Beijing. When he opened it, he found that there was also a letter from home inside.

So Li Gong immediately put out the official candle, lit a private candle and read the family letter. After reading, he lit the official candle again and continued to read the official documents.

At that time, there was a saying that "retreat in seclusion to welcome envoys, extinguish candles and read family letters".

The story of two nameless governors is very simple, but Yan Xiaoshan keenly discovered the value of this article to newspaper sales and immediately published the original text.

Sure enough, the sales of newspapers surged in that period, and a big discussion started in Bianjing city.

For no other reason, the Kuang Shigu counterfeit banknote case also happened in Bozhou, and his identity is also the magistrate of Bozhou!

Although the man was dead, there were still many sympathizers of Kuang Shigu in the court. They still used the saying that "the punishment is not good enough for the doctor", believing that the court imposed too heavy a sentence and executed the execution too quickly.

After the deeds of the two unknown governors of Bozhou who had been honest and honest were unearthed and published in newspapers, Kuang Shigu immediately lost support.

This is called no comparison, no harm.

The thinking of the common people in Kaifeng Prefecture is very simple. They are both the chief officials of the same place. How can the difference be so big?
