author:Heroes stir up history

Since Cixi seized power, the authority of the Military Aircraft Department has always been firmly focused on, which is the center of the entire Qing court, and now what is the model of the Military Aircraft Department, that is, the pattern of the two Manchus and two Han dynasties led by Prince Gong Yi. As the supreme leader of the Qing court, he will never forget the essence of power in two words: checks and balances.

As long as the military planes are stuffed, They must be sai and Prince Gong are not allies of the same road, and they must be Han Chinese, which can achieve the role of checks and balances, and will not worry about the dominance of the family. With such a slippery wrist, Cixi's position was as stable as sitting on the Diaoyutai, laughing at the changes.

In the third year of Guangxu, Li Hongzao's birth mother died, according to the previous rules, to worry about Ding for three years, Li Hongzao was reluctant and could not change his birth mother, and could only whisk his sleeves away. After Li Hongzao left his post, the Military Aircraft Department had to add a Han minister. This person must be a person who can be acquiesced by all forces to enter, pick and choose, until the fourth year of Guangxu, in February, he picked Wang Wenshao.

When it comes to the Qing Dynasty, many people will scoff at it, and these ministers have a fart, they will only kneel down and shoot horses, and there is no use for anything. In fact, from the narrow way of the imperial examination, no one who successfully crossed the single wooden bridge among thousands of troops and horses was a mediocre talent, and none of them were elites among the elite and the elite of the elite.

Wang Wenshao entered the military plane, many people are not surprised nor unhappy, he debuted with the nickname "oil soaked loquat core", loquat core is originally very slippery oil, plus oil soaking, it is even more slippery. It can be seen that Wang Wenshao's oil slippage has reached the peak of perfection, and the people who are mixed in the capital, which one is not oily, when they encounter Wang Wenshao, they only have the share of the inferior wind.

Wang Wenshao's ancestral home is in Hangzhou, and he is a native of Jiading. From a commoner's background, his father was just a small accountant in a sauce garden outside Jiading City, and Wang Wenshao had been an apprentice in the sauce garden since he was a child, and he had leisure to read and read, and found that this son was really reading material. His father decided to pay him to study, did not expect that Wang Wenshao is a bastard boy, gambling outside, 15 years old has become a debtor family, want to account for the door to scold, the father had to pawn the family's valuable things, not enough to pay off the debt, forced to write only owes. Wang Wenshao looked at his father's old back and woke up in an instant, can gambling make a contribution to life? He was determined to study hard, and found a scholar Qian Xuan as a teacher in Jiading, Wang Wenshao had no talent in gambling, and was extremely talented in reading, and he worshiped the master and became his father-in-law, and Qian Xuan married his daughter to Wang Wenshao.

Daoguang 28 years, Wang Wenshao participated in the county examination, Xianfeng first year, the examination won the lifting, the following year, 23-year-old Wang Wenshao was admitted to the jinshi, Xianfengnian is his lucky year, many people exhaust the two extremely high thresholds that are difficult to cross in their lives, and they are taken down by Wang Wenshao. He already had the qualifications to be an official, and had been assigned to the Household Department as an errand boy for nearly 10 years, until the Tongzhi Dynasty began to be released to serve as a foreign official.

When Wang Wenshao was released as an official, he deliberately helped local officials to work, and no matter how difficult the task, Wang Wenshao had to help them get it done. After the destruction of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the Qing court wanted the overseers to reimburse the military expenses, Zuo Zongtang was not good at reimbursement, the accounting was very trivial, he was very annoyed, he found Wang Wenshao to help reimburse, Wang Wenshao knew that Zuo Zongtang was a super big man who stomped on the court and trembled three times, there was no reason to slacken off, he promised with his mouth, and then he did not work day and night to calculate the accounts, and soon the reimbursement of the military expenses was clearly handed over smoothly.

In the 3rd year of Tongzhi, Wang Wenshao was transferred to Han Huangde Dao and supervised Jiang Hanguan. Zuo Zongtang came again, he was recently busy with the western expedition to Xinjiang, military expenses were all in Han Huangde Dao, Zuo Zongtang asked Wang Wenshao to take it out, Wang Wenshao went all out to help put forward the general fee, and handed it over to Zuo Zongtang at all, and took the initiative to purchase the materials and horses and rice grain needed for the expedition, part of which was sent to Zuo Zongtang's army, and part of it was used as a reserve for unexpected needs, and the dispatch was proper and never delayed. Zuo Zongtang was particularly satisfied with him, and he rarely invited people to dinner, and he made an exception to invite Wang Wenshao to dinner, and praised him for his excellent work, meticulousness, and high knowledge.

Zuo Daren's words were particularly weighty, and he recommended that Wang Wenshao be promoted to be an envoy in Hubei, and after ten years of tongzhi, he was promoted to the post of inspector of Hunan. After 6 years in office, there is no earth-shattering big cause, all of which are silently dispatched behind the scenes, calming the people's rebellion, stabilizing the local situation, not feeling his existence, is the best existence.

He was promoted from the Inspector of Hunan to the Rank of Soldier, returned to Beijing after the end of his local post, and was quickly promoted, and from the Left Attendant of the Rebbe to the Prime Minister of Yamen. He was promoted very quickly after entering Beijing, mainly his background is very good, he is a Xianfeng 2-year jinshi, the friends of the jinshi in the same period are Li Hongzao and Jing Lian, the people who admitted him are Shen Guifen, Shen Guifen is a Zhejiang person, and there is a friendship between teachers and students, Wang Wenshao is top-notch in maintaining relations, and Shen Guifen has a very thick personal relationship, close contacts, Shen Guifen is a miser, often call Wang Wenshao to come to dinner, Wang Wenshao is to eat a bowl of rice without a grain of rice, the appetite of Shen Guifen, Shen Guifen will be his number one confidant.

Shen Guifen had always been unable to deal with Qingliu, especially Li Hongzao. When Shen Guifen was there, the Qingliu people couldn't do anything about him, and now that he was dead, Wang Wenshao was a descendant of Shen Guifen's concubine. Qingliu found this target, and under the new hatred, he took turns to attack him fiercely. Wang Wenshao's means are not old enough, his seniority is not deep enough, his private life is not like Shen Guifen's, pure heart, there is no handle to grasp, Wang Wenshao has fished a lot over the years, and his family is entangled. His own son was also in power with his father, the entire second ancestor.

The Qing dynasty's iron men Deng Chengxiu and Yushi Hongliangpin impeached Wang Wenshao for taking bribes, and requested his removal. Zhang Peilun even wrote three books, but also wanted to put Wang Wenshao to death, Qingliu's lifeless attack, although successfully forced the high-ranking officials headed by Wang Wenshao to temporarily take a leave of absence, resigned, but did not completely damage Wang Wenshao's bones. Staying in Qingshan, not worrying about firewood, Wang Wenshao asked for the vacancy for the third time, and finally got Cixi's approval and withdrew.

But who is Cixi? She is an old and spicy politician, watching Qingliu jump up and down, and gradually have a monopoly of the family, can Cixi allow it? Wang Wenshao, who was the governor of Yungui, was quickly called into Beijing by Cixi, and he had always been particularly loyal to Cixi, and it was right to hold this thigh tightly.

Wang Wenshao had been in the official field for many years, and he saw Cixi too thoroughly, after Cixi fled, Wang Wenshao immediately went to the military plane to get the big seal, took his son, chased day and night for three days, and finally caught up, when Wang Wenshao finished resting, went to see Cixi, Cixi looked at Wang Wenshao, who was 71 years old, with sincerity in his wolf, regardless of any danger, insisted on following himself in his own hardships, Cixi was moved, and also secretly admired this person's standing kung fu to the peak, and immediately untied a piece of peiyu and rewarded him.

After many years of official eunuch career, Wang Wenshao is too old, he has not been as sharp as he was then, he has become more slippery, and now current events are unclear, the situation is very chaotic, every word he says will affect the movement of the DPRK, Wang Wenshao does not want to be responsible at all, he excuses his bad ears and does not comment. When he was in the military plane, as long as there were different opinions, everyone was red in the face, and when they couldn't stand each other, Cixi asked Wang Wenshao what his opinion was, Wang Wenshao laughed every time, Cixi was helpless, and could only say, you are afraid of offending people, it is really a glass ball, Wang Wenshao still laughs and does not speak, people and animals are harmless.

However, one of the things That Wang Wenshao was most opposed to was the abolition of the imperial examination. For this matter, he did not hesitate to tear his face with Zhang Zhidong, and almost fought a big fight, a man in his seventies, an old man with a broken wind and candle, the fire was particularly large, zhang Zhidong occasionally said a word: The imperial examination is not abolished for a day, and the school is not happy for a day. When Wang Wenshao heard this, his eyebrows furrowed, his eyes were red, he slammed the table, and angrily asked: Are you from the Imperial Examination or the Academy, Zhang Zhidong and him scolded, argued, Wang Wenshao was angry, pulled up his sleeves, showed his old fist, and wanted to beat Zhang Zhidong, and the result was that others pulled away. Afterwards, he also specially prevented Zhang Zhidong from becoming the minister of military aircraft.

Until the end, in 1908 (Guangxu thirty-four years) to completely swallow, a lifetime of eunuch life, ups and downs, only plain, perfect display of bureaucratic style, can be called the best model of bureaucracy, and finally got The Title of Tan Wenqin and gave the title of Taibao.
