Youth

When he was a child, Zhao yijiong was fostered in his grandfather Chen Zhen's family in Guiyang. Because his grandfather's family is scholarly, and he lives in the gathering area of old scholars and celebrities beside Jiaxiu building in Nanming River, Zhao yijiong has received good education and culture since he was a child. In 1825, his eldest uncle, Yigong, was a member of the Department of Daoguang. He was a teacher of Zhenyuan County. His second uncle, Yiheng, was a student of the Department. His third uncle, Yizhen, was a scholar. Such a family environment created excellent preschool education conditions for Zhao yijiong.

Zhao yijiong has been smart and studious since he was a child. In addition, Chen family, Zhao's third wife, is good at teaching children, which makes Zhao's family and neighbors admire him. In 1865, when Zhao yijiong was 7 years old, he was following his family's Zhao family to compile wufameng. In 1867, he was studied in Wu Zhutang (denggui), and his younger brother Yi Fu was also a monk in Mr. Zhu Tang's family. Wu Zhutang, who was born in Fu Xue Xiang, had a great influence on Zhao yijiong and Zhao Yifu's future success. Later, Zhao yijiong was also employed by Gu Boxiang and Gao Yanghua. In the second year of Guangxu (1876), Zhao yijiong and Zhao Yizhen went to Guishan Academy of Guiyang for further study. They were educated by Wei boqian, the former scholar of Guizhou, and were influenced by Huang Zhiheng of Guishan Academy.

In the 12th year of Guangxu (1886), Zhao yijiong and Zhao Yizhen went to Beijing to take part in the examination. The title of the examination was "taking all people as good, being good with others.". Therefore, a gentleman should be good to others.

Most of the number one scholars in Ming and Qing Dynasties came from Jiangnan, while Zhao yijiong of Qingyan, Guiyang, is the number one scholar in the world. This is indeed a great event for Guizhou, which is regarded as a wild land, and makes people look at Guizhou scholars with new eyes. Li Duanfen, a Guiyang resident who was the censor in the capital at that time, wrote a pair of couplets to congratulate him: "there was no special favor in the Muxi Dynasty. After listening to the first song of Chuanlu, among the 90 people, the first one was to announce his name; he liked the aura of the bell in Guizhou for a long time, and left a few words in memory of the immortal pen. Five hundred years later, the cultural relics really won the south of the Yangtze River.".

However, it made wine with Longjing, which was a tribute to the Tang Dynasty. "In 1882, Zhao yijiong and his cousin Zhao Yuanxiang walked to Beijing to take the exam. After they failed in Renke, they were not discouraged, but strengthened their confidence of" inspiring and taking a broad view ". When returning to Qingyan to continue studying hard, one day Zhao yijiong chanted to himself in his home: "as soon as he went up to Zhao's house, he witnessed Jiang Han's spirit in autumn.

Excellent poetry and prose

"The evaluation of Zhao yijiong's strategy in the palace examination of the number one scholar in all dynasties is as follows:" when we read Zhao's strategy today, he is erudite, thoughtful and fluent. "Li Shuchang, a famous Guizhou scholar who was once the Chinese Minister in Japan, said in his preface to Zhao Dian:" from Shunzhi Jiashen to today's shangwuzi, in 345 years, 98 people won the first prize, and the southeast provinces, counties or even several people, and the southwest frontier was the total number of provinces, which had been absent for hundreds of years!

Its mountains and rivers are clear and elegant, and its spirit is stagnant for a long time. "It can be seen that Zhao yijiong, who is erudite and talented, won the honor for Guizhou with his solid foundation, and changed the scholars' view that" there is no one in Guizhou "with his erudite intelligence.
