Chapter 239 The twists and turns, the ups and downs!
Ma Runchuan, who was relaxed, heard Ye Mingsheng's question and sighed without thinking too much, and said quietly:
"Ma studied under Wang Zhi, a great Confucian. He was a scholar at the age of twenty-seven and a scholar at the age of thirty-three. When he was young, he was full of enthusiasm. He also thought in his heart that he would use what he had learned in this life to create a peaceful and prosperous age, and his good name would go down in history.
, to be remembered for centuries, so that I can live up to my humble age and study hard for decades!”
"But the world is like this, and my background is like this. What can I do? What can I do..."
I have to say that Ma Runchuan is indeed a smart man. Although he relaxed his vigilance slightly under the guidance of Ye Mingsheng's words, as soon as he finished speaking, he immediately realized that he had made a mistake and immediately kept silent.
Although Ma Runchuan reacted quickly, Ye Mingsheng already knew what he said!
Picking up the tea cup, Ye Mingsheng blew into the green tea soup and said lightly:
"Master Ma, you should know about my latest appointment, right?"
Hearing what Ye Mingsheng said, Ma Runchuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said truthfully: "I heard some rumors that Mr. Ye is going to Fengzhou to serve as the commander-in-chief..."
"The rumors are true!" Ye Mingsheng shook the tea cup in his hand, nodded and said:
"I congratulate Mr. Ye on your promotion!" Ma Runchuan stood up quickly after hearing this and said:
Ye Mingsheng waved his hand and said nonchalantly:
"There's nothing to be happy about. It's just a promotion. From the fifth grade to the fifth grade, it sounds good, but the actual power has not increased much!"
Hearing Ye Mingsheng speak so calmly, Ma Runchuan, who had been stuck in the position of Qipin County Magistrate for five years, couldn't help but have a look of envy on his face.
I secretly lamented in my heart why the gap between people is so big?
Taking a sip of the warm tea soup in the tea cup, Ye Mingsheng looked at Ma Runchuan and said seriously:
"Master Ma, I want to give you a chance, and also give myself a chance!"
Hearing this, Ma Runchuan seemed to understand Ye Mingsheng's words, but he didn't seem to understand them completely. He pondered for a moment and then cautiously tested Ye Mingsheng:
"Master Ye, what do you mean by this?"
Seeing that Ma Runchuan insisted on explaining his words clearly, Ye Mingsheng did not hide it and said directly:
"Fengzhou has jurisdiction over five counties, thirteen townships, and hundreds of villages, with a population of at least 300,000. In terms of area, it is more than ten times the size of Fengshan County. In such a place, it is undoubtedly more suitable for Master Ma. You can use it
Talent, realize your ambition!”
Hearing that Ye Mingsheng really wanted to recruit him, a look of surprise immediately appeared on Ma Runchuan's face. His Adam's apple twitched slightly, he swallowed, and said hesitantly:
"I heard that the imperial court sent a new governor to Fengzhou..."
"I know, but this is Liaoyang!"
Facing Ma Runchuan's gaze, Ye Mingsheng said very calmly:
Although Ye Mingsheng didn't seem to have any emotional fluctuations when he said this, Ma Runchuan was shocked when he heard this.
Although he had long known that Ye Mingsheng was very courageous and his methods were very wild, Ma Runchuan never thought that he would dare to do this. This would not only be beheading, but also implicate the three clans!
Ma Runchuan would not believe it if others did this, but for some reason, looking at Ye Mingsheng's calm eyes, Ma Runchuan could not help but believe his words!
After pondering for a while, Ma Runchuan took a deep breath and said in the same serious tone:
"I wonder why Mr. Ye would like Xia Guan?"
When Ye Mingsheng heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said slowly:
"Master Ma, you may not know, but I am not afraid to tell you that I have arranged for someone to observe you for some time!"
"Although you are a person with bad personal ethics and love luxury and beauty, you are occasionally lazy and negligent in politics!"
"However, as the county magistrate and the head of a county, you have never bullied men, dominated women, or caused trouble for one party. You are fair and just in handling official affairs and act in accordance with the law. This shows that you at least have a bottom line!"
"In addition, Ye has traveled extensively with the army for many years, and has seen many local officials. Mr. Ma, with your ability, even if you are not ranked first, you can at least be in the top five!"
"I believe that if you can take charge of Fengzhou, the people of Fengzhou will be prosperous and prosperous, and the people will live and work in peace and contentment!"
Hearing Ye Mingsheng's words, Ma Runchuan didn't know whether he should cry or be happy...
After pondering for nearly a cup of tea, Ma Runchuan finally raised his head, looked at Ye Mingsheng and said seriously:
"Master Ye, the offer you made is indeed very tempting, and it makes my heart beat... But can I refuse?"
When Ye Mingsheng heard this, he seemed not surprised and asked:
"Mr. Ma, are you worried about the retaliation from the Governor?"
"There is one reason for this, but not all of it!" Ma Runchuan said seriously:
"Oh? Ye is willing to hear the details!" Ye Mingsheng asked with interest:
"Master Ye, you are really too courageous... If I follow you, I will either be rich or have a different body in the future. I am too timid to bet!" Ma Runchuan
He spread his hands and said helplessly:
Hearing what Ma Runchuan said, Ye Mingsheng thought about what he had done, and said with a very candid forehead, "Master Ma, what you said makes sense!"
"However, talents like you are really rare. If I plan to use force, what are you going to do?"
In response to Ye Mingsheng's inquiry, Ma Runchuan said confidently:
"Master Ye, you won't do this!"
"Although I am timid and dare not gamble, I know that a person has nothing but his talent and is extremely eager for an opportunity to come..."
Hearing Ma Runchuan's description, Ye Mingsheng's eyes flashed and he said in a deep voice: "Master Ma, do you think this person is..."
"That's right, it's Gu Sansi!"
"You may not know something, but this person and my teacher came from the same school. They are both disciples of Teacher Wang Zhi. Among the many disciples of the teacher, there are many talented and amazing people. But among the disciples of the teacher, in terms of intelligence,
, in terms of talent, no one can match Junior Brother Gu!"
"Junior Brother Gu, he was a scholar at the age of sixteen and became a scholar at the age of twenty-one. If his future hadn't been ruined by bad people in that incident, the number one scholar in the Zhou Dynasty might not be able to bear the surname Gu!"
"Master Ye, if you can promote talents in any way, then Junior Brother Gu is your best choice! With Junior Brother Gu's help, Sir, no matter what you do, I believe you will be able to get twice the result with half the effort!" Looking at Ye Mingsheng who was thinking about it.
