Minister Wang has a son and a daughter, and his son Wang Mian is playful and never gets into reading and reading, but he is obsessed with gambling. He met a group of stubborn children and often hang out in the casino, which caused County Magistrate Wang to have a headache.
Daughter Wang Xiuer is completely the opposite. She is knowledgeable, knowledgeable, and has a good reputation as a talented woman. She has given her father a lot of useful suggestions for her case and is deeply loved by her parents.
On one day, Luzhou Governor Chang Bu received news that he was reported to the emperor because he often accepted bribes from his subordinates. Changbu has an account book that records all the bribes and the list of subordinates. Chang Bu found that there was no Wang Zhongzhi in it, and suspected that it was a letter of report written by him, so he decided to blame him for the crime.
takes the day when the magistrate reports government affairs to his superiors. After the official report is completed, Changbu calls County Magistrate Wang to the back hall to chat. While County Magistrate Wang is not paying attention, he arranges the servants in advance and secretly hides the prepared fake account book and some fake letters into County Magistrate Wang's accompanying package.
A few hours later, County Magistrate Wang bid farewell to Governor Chang, unaware of it, and returned to the county government. He had just sat down and rested, but before he could finish the package, the yamen runners suddenly reported that the officials from the governor's office were ordered to come and catch the important criminals.
Magistrate Wang wondered: "Mr. Chang didn't mention it just now, and he just sent someone here. What's going on?" He quickly asked someone to bring the officials. The official sent by the leader of
saluted Lord Wang, and then handed the summons of the governor to the county magistrate Wang, saying, "Mr. Wang, on the order of the governor Chang, because he is suspected of accepting bribes, he will ask him to return to the governor's office to reply to the governor's office and search the county government office."
Lord Wang said, "I am a civil servant and have never collected money from others. There must be misunderstandings here. I must report to the governor, and I will be exempted from searching."
leader said, "Don't make things difficult for you to subordinates." After that, he began to search the government office separately.
In less than a cup of tea, the officials searched and carried the package he had just brought back and went back to the governor's mansion with Lord Wang.
As soon as he arrived at the lobby of the governor's mansion, Lord Chang was already sitting upright in the middle, and the official put the package on the desk. Lord Chang opened the package with a pretentious manner, looked through the account book and letter, then picked up gavel and took it hard, saying, "Bold Wang Zhongzhi, as a county magistrate, should have benefited the people, but he actually committed corruption and abused the law and received bribes."
Wang Zhongzhi immediately knelt down and explained, "Sir, the official is wronged, someone must have falsely accused the official."
Changbu pointed to the things on the desk and said, "The account book and letter were found from your mansion, so why are you wronged? Come, detain Wang Zhongzhi in a prison." After chapter 0, a group of officials took off Wang Zhongzhi's official hat, put them in shackles and were imprisoned.
Then, the officials came to the county magistrate's office again and told Wang Zhongzhi the news of his wife and children, and then drove them all out of the county magistrate's office.
Wang Zhongzhi's wife heard the news and was as if the sky had fallen. She died without getting up in one breath, leaving Wang Mian and Xiu'er brother and sister.
The people in the county knew that the Wang family had suffered this disaster and offered help. They had the money and strong efforts to bury Mrs. Wang, and also lent a thatched hut outside the city to the brother and sister to live there. After
, in order to save his father, Wang Mian and Xiu'er asked the people of the county to sign a letter of Wan Min to prove their father's injustice. After a month, Wang Mian and Xiu'er handed over the letter of Wan Min to the governor's office, but Lord Chang returned the letter of Wan Min Min and drove the brother and sister back on the grounds of the seriousness of the case.
This could not hit the brother and sister. They decided to go to Beijing to file a lawsuit, but now they are short of money and need to make up enough money. Xiu'er thought that her father had a good relationship with the wealthy businessman Li Si and had helped him win a dispute before.
But they didn't know that Li Si was a profit-oriented villain. He got close to him because of Lord Wang's official position.Since we learned that the Wang family suffered, we have completely left the relationship. Now the door is closed and we don’t even see them in person. And Wang Mian turned against him and refused to accept others when he was looking for him.
There is no way, the brother and sister can only support themselves. Xiu'er learned textile embroidery with her sister-in-law nearby and sold it to the cloth shop for some money, but this money can only be lived and it is difficult to accumulate.
Although Wang Mian was born as a young man, he had no ink in his stomach, had no power to tie a chicken, had no livelihood, and could not rely on his sister to support him. He decided to sell the jade pendant he gave to him by his mother to a pawnshop, exchange it for a few taels of silver, and go to the gambling shop to gamble.
In half a day, Wang Mian lost all his money. He could only sit at the door of the gambling house, crying, not knowing how to explain to his sister.
At this time, an old Taoist priest came from somewhere. He stopped in front of Wang Mian and said, "Young Master, I have a fate with you. What's the sad thing? Can you tell me?"
Wang Mian wiped his tears and said, "Master, I am..." Then he suffered from the Wang family, exchanged the jade pendant into the casino, wanted to win some money and go to Beijing to complain, and told the old Taoist priest one by one.
After hearing this, the old Taoist priest stroked his beard and said, "You are eager to save your father, so you embarked on the road of gambling, unlike those Jihe who burned boats. In this way, I can teach you the gambling technique so that you will win every bet, but you have to agree to my few conditions."
Wang Mian couldn't wait to answer, "Please say, I agree to all conditions."
"Okay. That's it. , After you earn enough money, you should not continue to be addicted, you must quit.
2. You can only bet three times a day, and half of the money you win should be given to poor people.
3. Don’t tell others that you are learning gambling from me, nor can you teach gambling to others. If you violate these three conditions, you will definitely be retribution for karma, you are willing. "
"I am willing, I am willing to live in my later years." Wang Mian said.
In the next month, Wang Mian got up early every day and went to the dilapidated temple outside the city to find the old Taoist priest. The old Taoist priest trained Wang Mian's listening skills, allowing him to clearly hear the dice points in the sieve cup; exercised Wang Mian's eyesight, allowing him to see the movement order of 99 ; exercised Wang Mian's memory, allowing him to remember the positions of various cards very clearly; exercised Wang Mian's techniques, allowing him to quickly perform Thousands of Techniques.
A month later, Wang Mianxiang came to the dilapidated temple and found that the old Taoist priest was no longer there, leaving only a few taels of silver and a letter. Wang Mian opened it and saw that the old Taoist priest told him that he had achieved success in his studies and could become a master.
So, Wang Mian went to the casino again to show his strength. He also kept in mind the agreement with the old Taoist priest, and only bet three times, winning a lot of money. On the way home, Wang Mian distributed half of the money to beggars, widows and orphans along the way, and the remaining half was handed over to Xiu'er to store.
In the past, Xiu'er always looked down on Wang Mian, thinking that sooner or later he would lose all the money in his family and implicate his family. Now he didn't expect that he could not only earn travel expenses through gambling, but also help the poor, and looked at his brother with admiration.
In just half a month, Wang Mian earned enough 100 taels of silver. He and Xiu'er packed their luggage and set off to the capital with Wan Minshu.
After the wind and rain, Wang Mian and Xiu'er finally arrived in the capital. They found an inn to stay in, and then asked the bags in the city to ask about the complaint.
The next day, they came to Tongzheng Envoy Department and submitted a complaint and a letter of Wan Min. In order to present the complaint to the heaven as soon as possible, they had to give the remaining money to the official in the envoy department.
After returning to the inn, Xiu'er asked Wang Mian: "Brother, we gave all the money to the official officer. What should we do next?"
Wang Mian said: "My master had an agreement with me that he would quit gambling after earning enough travel expenses, so I can't gamble anymore in the future. While it's not too late, I'll go outside to see if there is any opportunity to make money." After that, he went out.
When Wang Mian came to the street, he wandered around. Although there were many people, it was hard to find opportunities. As he walked, he saw a place in front of him was crowded with people, so he squeezed to the front with strength.
It turned out that a rich man, Mr. Chen, set up a stage to recruit his son-in-law, and a document was hung on the stage, saying that three levels were set up on the stage, and anyone who could pass the first level could get ten taels of silver, and after passing the second level, he would get one hundred taels of silver. If he passed all three levels, he would be betrothed to him his only daughter.
Although the temptation is very tempting, all those who have participated in the test can't even pass the first level. Wang Mian planned to give it a try, even if he couldn't go to the rich lady, he could at least get some silver.
He walked onto the ring, came to Chen Yuanwai, bowed and said, "Mr. Uncle, I am polite, I dare to ask for a try." After
, the servant brought Wang Mian to the first level, and listened to the sound and distinguished. Wang Mian's eyes need to be covered, and two guzheng are set on both sides of him, and two different songs are played at the same time. After the song is played, the examinee is asked to answer the names of the two songs.
Wang Mian was secretly happy: Thanks to those friends who often took me to listen to music, I learned the names of many music. In addition, this kind of test is similar to listening to sieve cups. Isn’t it easy to pass the test?
So, before the song was finished, Wang Mian gave the answer, easily won the reward of ten taels of silver, and won the applause from the audience.
reaches the second level, which is a ten line at a glance. The person being tested requires that the examinee finish reading a book of accounts within one stick of incense, and then the examiner will ask a few questions from it, and the answer is correct and you can pass the test.
This is another simple thing for Wang Mian, who has excellent eyesight and memory, so he answered the question correctly and easily won 100 taels.
Just as Wang Mian thought of giving up the third level, he happily had more than one hundred taels. When he went back to the inn to tell Xiuer about this good news, Chen Yuanwai's daughter heard that someone had passed two levels in a row and came out of the backstage.
Wang Mian looked at her, and even with a veil on her face, she could not hide her beauty. This deeply touched Wang Mian's heart and vowed to marry her, so she rushed to the third level.
The third level is the most difficult. On the basis of establishing the second level, the examiner also requires the examinee to use abacus to calculate the results of several accounts in the account book in half an incense stick, even if it passes.
This tests Wang Mian's memory and hand speed ability. Because gambling requires extremely fast hand speed, this typing abacus is no problem. As the incense continues to shorten, the abacus collision also keeps ticking. When the incense burned out in the end, Wang Mian reported the calculation result, which was no different from the answer.
At this time, thunderous applause and shouts broke out from the audience. Chen Yuanwai also announced on the spot that he would take Wang Mian as his son-in-law to stay in the Chen Mansion and get married on the date of choice.
In Chen's mansion, Chen Yuanwai said to Wang Mian: "My family has been doing business for generations and is also a single-handed life for generations. I don't have a son, only Ruyan, so in order to protect the Chen family's industry, my son-in-law must be a business talent. The three tests I set up are tests of listening, eyesight, memory and hand speed. After the young master passed the three levels, it means that you have all these talents. And just now, the little girl was already interested in the young master. I ordered someone to choose a lucky day to get married."
After listening to Chen Yuanwai's words, Wang Mian stood up and did a big deal to him. He said, "Thank you for your kindness, just because..."
Wang Mian told me about his father being imprisoned and his family was in trouble. The brother and sister raised money to file a complaint, and then said, "Now my biggest wish to live tonight is to seek justice for his father. Please forgive me for the marriage."
Chen Mr. Wai was moved by Wang Mian's filial piety and said, "Young master is so filial, and you are even more sure that you are the person I am looking for. I will send someone to the inn to pick up the sister of the order. After the grievance is revealed, we will talk again."
Two months later, the emperor saw Wang Mian's complaint and immediately issued an order to send an imperial envoy to Luzhou to investigate the case. Wang Mian and Xiu'er received the news and returned to their hometown together with Chen Yuanwai's support.
Originally, the governor, Lord Chang, wanted to rely on fake accounts and letters to blame Wang Zhongzhi for all the charges, but he did not expect that the imperial envoy had conducted open and secret investigations and searched for enough evidence.In the face of iron evidence, Lord Chang had to plead guilty and was taken back to the court for trial by the imperial envoy.
Finally, Lord Wang was released from prison and his official position was restored. Their family went to Beijing to find Chen Yuanwai and thanked him for his help. Then, under the witness of both parents, Wang Mian and Ruyan held a grand wedding.
