The most arrogant in history

Chapter 369: Do not avoid relatives when promoting people.

Tang Ji was Zhang Bi's apprentice. When he saw Ye Kun bringing up his master, he had to shut up.

Ye Kun took advantage of the situation and said:

"Everyone here is an academic master and the backbone of China. In this chaotic time, everyone should contribute to the country and the people.

I, Ye Kun, am uneducated, but I have some understanding of righteousness.

Every man has his share of responsibility for the fate of the country. We should worry about the country before we worry about ourselves, and enjoy the country after we enjoy ourselves! If we are poor, we should take care of ourselves; if we are rich, we should help the world!

I face the criticism of thousands of people with a cold brow and am willing to be a cow for the children!

We must establish our hearts for the world, our lives for the people, continue the lost knowledge of the past sages, and bring peace to the world for all eternity!"

There was thunderous applause and enthusiastic response from the audience.

Ye Kun's face turned red.

Because these famous quotes are all plagiarized, which is quite shameless!

The three-day academic conference finally ended.

The university's motto was finally determined: apply what you learn, and put people first.

The quotations and poems plagiarized by Ye Kun were also posted all over the campus.

The fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold, and the sharpness of a sword comes from sharpening; there will always be a time to ride the wind and waves, and set sail to cross the vast ocean...

In order to consolidate the results of the conference, Ye Kun also organized university teachers and academic officials to go deep into the classroom and conduct a three-day ideological education for students. At the same time, he printed out the essential speeches of various schools of thought at the conference, as well as the final consensus.

Movable type printing has been mastered and paper production can keep up, so printing and distributing some materials is not a problem.

In addition, Ye Kun also printed 100 copies of the wonderful arguments and summary of the conference and sent them to merchants in Jiangdong and Central Plains, asking them to take them back and exchange ideas.

Within a month, the information reached Xiahou Chang's hands.

Xiahou Chang was amazed at Ye Kun's literary talent and convened a meeting of his advisers, saying:

"The thief Ye has seized Yizhou, and has also occupied Yongliang and Jingzhou. He still refuses to give up and wants to take over the rest of the world.

He convened a conference of hundreds of schools of thought, and proposed that "every man is responsible for the rise and fall of his country", "worry about the world before you worry about yourself, and be happy after the world is happy about yourself", and also "establish a mind for heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the people, continue the lost knowledge of the ancient sages, and bring peace to the world for all generations". His ambition is evident!

"What do you think, my dear ministers?"

The counselor said: "This is Ye Kun using the name of learning to win the hearts of the sages of hundreds of schools. As far as I know, this information has been spread in the Central Plains and has a great influence. We must ban this information and conduct a thorough search to avoid causing unrest among the people."

Xiahou Chang sighed, "It has already spread, and many people have secretly copied it, so it is difficult to stop it."

Another counselor said: "We will also hold an academic conference and call on the great scholars of the Central Plains to refute Ye Kun's views..."

"Every man is responsible for the fate of his country. How can you refute this statement? I didn't expect that Ye Kun's literary talent is so great. His civil and military skills are far better than mine."

Xiahou Chang felt helpless and said self-deprecatingly:

"In another three to five years, Ye Kun will come to the Central Plains to take my head, right? But among the officials in the court, who can turn the tide and share the worries of the court?"

The chief clerk of the Xiangfu stepped forward, clasped his hands and said:

"Prime Minister, don't worry. Ye Kun's people are insufficient and they have just been through a war, which has seriously damaged their vitality. Now Ye Kun has to stabilize Jingzhou and has no spare energy to plot against the Central Plains.

We should find an opportunity to take Liaodong, expand our territory, and then unite with the Northern Xiongnu Tianxian Chanyu and Jiangdong Xiao Dequan to fight Ye Kun to the death! Liaodong is a vast area, we can advance or retreat, and we can deal with Ye Kun for a long time. "

Conquering Liaodong was also what Xiahou Chang hoped for.

Because Liaodong also has large plains, large iron mines, fine horses and strong people.

Xiahou Chang thought for a moment, frowned and said, "If we send troops to Liaodong, and Ye Kun takes the opportunity to attack, how should we respond?"

The chief clerk was confident: "Ye Kun doesn't dare to take risks when doing things. Jingzhou is unstable now, and I don't think Ye Kun will take any action."

The counselors in the hall nodded together.

Xiahou Chang also nodded: "Then let's discuss how to take over Liaodong."

At this time, Ye Kun was still busy with scientific research and cultural and educational activities in Chengdu. At the same time, he was selecting talents to go to Jingzhou to develop education and open schools.

Guan Yafu and Han Chun suggested that Ye Kun move the Hanzhong Palace to Jingzhou.

Because now it seems that the military value of Jingzhou is far greater than that of Chengdu.

If Jingzhou goes north, you can conquer the Central Plains, and if it goes southeast, you can attack Xiao Dequan.

Chengdu has become the hinterland and is very safe, so there is no need for Ye Kun to be in charge.

Ye Kun also had this idea, but it was a troublesome matter to decide who to hand over Chengdu to.

Guan Yafu and Zhuge Feng were both old and in poor health.

Han Chun is a mountain eagle and we cannot let him control Chengdu, otherwise his power will grow stronger and stronger and he might rebel in the future.

Sang Buzhi was a talented person, but he was confronting Xiahou Chang's troops in Chang'an and could not leave.

Apart from this, there is no other suitable candidate.

Guan Yafu knew what Ye Kun was thinking, and said with a fist: "I recommend someone to be the governor of Yizhou, who may be more qualified. The military power and defense of Chengdu will be handed over to Qin Erwu. With the complementarity of civil and military affairs, there will be no mistakes."

"Who?"

"The dog is in charge of the leopard."

"Your eldest son?" Ye Kun was stunned, then smiled:

"Master Guan, you recommend people regardless of their enemies or relatives. You are indeed upright. Just as you said, transfer Guan Bao back to be the governor of Yizhou!"

Guan Bao is indeed a talented person, conscientious, pragmatic and hard-working, and he doesn't talk much.

At the beginning, Guan Bao was the school officer of Dongba County, responsible for education;

Later, he served as the mining officer of Yizhou, responsible for mineral mining and management in the entire territory.

Under Guan Bao's management, Yizhou's salt production increased threefold, iron ore production increased tenfold, and the mining of Hanjia gold and Zhuti silver made great progress, ensuring Ye Kun's treasury expenses.

As for coal, the annual output has now exceeded 10 million kilograms.

Guan Bao thanked him: "Thank you for your kindness, my lord. I, an old man, will accompany you to Jingzhou to plot against the Central Plains. We will fight till death!"

Since his son became the governor of Yizhou, Guan Yafu felt very conscious and decided to follow Ye Kun as a hostage.

Ye Kun smiled and said, "You are not in good health, so you should stay in Chengdu to recuperate and help your son Guan Bao. When Guan Bao is familiar with various government affairs and you are well, it will not be too late to go to Jingzhou to help me."

Knowing that Guan Yafu had no intention of rebelling, Ye Kun was not worried at all.

Keeping him in Chengdu can stabilize Yizhou.

The next day, Ye Kun held a meeting in the palace and announced that the palace would be moved to Xiangyang. He would personally go to the front line and take charge of Jingxiang.

Guan Bao was appointed as the governor of Yizhou, and Qin Erwu as the commander-in-chief of Yizhou, one civil and one military, to jointly govern Yizhou.

Han Chun and Wu Qiong were both promoted one level higher and transferred to Xiangyang for important positions.

As a result, most of the wealthy people in Chengdu were transferred away or stripped of their power.

Han Chun and Wu Qiong had smiles on their faces, but they were thinking "MMP" in their hearts. They clasped their fists and accepted the order. They went home to pack up, arrange their accompanying personnel, and prepare to move with Ye Kun.

This time the relocation is on a larger scale.

Most of the palace's stewards, maids, servants and cooks would have to move with them.

In addition, a scientific research team was formed, and skilled craftsmen went to Xiangyang with various equipment.

Lao He stayed in Chengdu, while Pang Jia, Sun Yi and He Tiantian, with their newly formed team, followed Ye Kun.

There are too many things involved in the relocation of the palace.

Ye Kun gave everyone two months to prepare and migrate in batches.

At the same time, they asked Xiangyang to slightly expand the original prefectural mansion to facilitate future office work, and also to prepare housing or build new mansions for Han Chun, Wu Qiong and others.

When the news of the palace's relocation spread, Chengdu was in an uproar.
