After all, the ground was not peaceful when the Posu Prefecture was first established, and it was also very poor. Fengshan County was a wealthy county in Dongning Prefecture. As the county magistrate, Ma Runchuan lived very comfortably in Fengshan, so there was no need to go there. The whirling house is looking for sin...
But until some time ago, Song Wenhui was completely defeated by the Zhenwu Army and took control of Dongning Prefecture. Fengshan County was Ye Mingsheng's hometown, so he paid special attention to the situation in Fengshan, so he got the news from Ma Runchuan. Ma Runchuan took the initiative to report to the Zhenwu Army surrender.
But because the Zhenwu Army accepted a large number of surrendered soldiers from the Liaoyang Army at that time, and wanted them to fight back against Song Wenhui, a large amount of money was needed to win people's hearts.
But at that time, the Zhenwu Army itself was also a pauper, and all their money was used for fighting, so without money, they could only start robbing, and the target of the robbing was the gentry group that originally supported Song Wenhui.
Therefore, the Zhenwu Army directly ignored Ma Runchuan's request for surrender, and not only dismissed Ma Runchuan from his post as county magistrate, but also wanted to put Ma Runchuan on trial. Later, it was Ma Runchuan who saved his life through many connections.
Although his life was saved, Ma Runchuan also spent all his wealth in order to survive, and the house he lived in was not taken away.
Although Ma Runchuan has been in charge of Fengshan in recent years, he has led the people to build bridges and roads, open up wasteland, and ensure basic fairness of justice. Those who kill must pay for their lives, and those who hurt others can be jailed. He has indeed done some practical and good things.
However, his personal life was also very chaotic. He had several concubines and more than ten children. Without money, the life of the whole family was very miserable.
When he first learned about Ma Runchuan's tragic situation, Ye Mingsheng honestly didn't take any pleasure in his misfortune. He was not such a boring person...
Although it's not that boring, it doesn't mean that Ye Mingsheng is a particularly generous person.
When you were good, you didn't come even if I invited you twice!
Now that you are down and out, do you think of me? Do you want to follow me?
Am I your backup?
Feeling the anger in Ye Mingsheng's words, Gu Sansi also felt very bitter in his heart. When he heard what happened from Ma Runchuan a few days ago, he knew that things would be a little difficult to handle given Ye Mingsheng's character.
But now hearing Ye Mingsheng's current tone, it seemed that things were more difficult than he thought, which made him even more anxious in his heart, thinking about how to persuade Ye Mingsheng to accept Ma Runchuan again.
One of the great advantages of Ma Runchuan is that he is smooth and gets along well with everyone. Back then, he and Ma Runchuan studied under the great Confucian Wang Zhi. At that time, he had thought twice about success at a young age and did not know how to restrain himself. He was a bit arrogant because of his talent. The relationship between them is not very good, but only with Ma Runchuan, we can talk more easily, and the relationship is relatively harmonious.
Later, because he had foreign ancestry, it was exposed, and he was ostracized by the officialdom and fell into the clouds. He was idle at home, had no talent, and was depressed. When his life was very depressed, he also received a lot of help from Ma Runchuan, a classmate of Ren Fengshan Shilling at the time, so that the family could survive. ············
Later, it was because of Ma Runchun's recommendation that he had the opportunity to work under Ye Mingsheng and get the opportunity to display his talents.
Therefore, Ma Runchuan's kindness to Gu Sansi can be said to be as great as heaven!
Gu Sansi is not a person who refuses to repay a favor. Now that Ma Runchuan has encountered difficulties and seeks help from him, he will naturally not stand idly by!
Otherwise, with Gu Sansi's always clean and aloof style in Ye Mingsheng's place, he would definitely not jump out to explain to Ma Runchuan and touch Ye Mingsheng's brow, knowing that Ye Mingsheng was not happy with Ma Runchuan.
"Sir, Senior Brother Ma is not only very kind to me, but also very useful to you!" Gu Sansi is a man of quick thinking after all. After thinking about it carefully, he had an idea in his mind and advised Ye Mingsheng. :
Ye Mingsheng didn't say anything when he heard this. He knew that Ma Runchuan was capable, but the problem was that there were too many capable people...
Why should he use the duplicitous Ma Runchuan?
Seeing this, Gu Sansi continued to persuade:
"Sir, Brother Ma, I am a bit of a loser, but one of his strengths is that he is good at interpersonal relationships!"
"Senior Brother Ma has many friends in the officialdom. The Zhenwu Army originally wanted to chop off his head this time, but they couldn't stop him from moving around. Many people came out to fish for him, so the Zhenwu Army couldn't show mercy and had to let him live. !”
"Senior Brother Ma wants to defect to our Fengzhou Army this time. To a large extent, he hates the Zhenwu Army in his heart! Therefore, his belief in our Fengzhou Army is also very firm!"
Ye Mingsheng couldn't help but snorted contemptuously when he heard this. To put it bluntly, isn't this just to borrow the hands of the Fengzhou Army and take revenge on the Zhenwu Army?
Seeing Ye Mingsheng's disdainful attitude, Gu Sansi was a little embarrassed, but he continued:
"My lord, have you ever thought about the next question?"
"You are now cooperating with the Cui family. If you lose in the end, there will be nothing to say. But what if we finally defeated the Zhenwu Army and won the power of Liaoyang?"
"My lord, your current foundation is in the army, but your foundation in the officialdom is weak. In order to maintain the stability of Liaoyang, you must rely on the Cui family, but are you willing to do this?"
"The best way to deal with the Cui family is to gradually replace them with those who support you in the officialdom. Senior Brother Ma has a wide range of friends in the officialdom and can talk to everyone. With his help, you can support your own influence in the officialdom." With your footsteps, you will get twice the result with half the effort!”
"In addition, after learning this lesson, I believe that Senior Brother Ma will be grateful for your kindness, cherish this hard-won opportunity, and serve you honestly!"
After listening to Gu Sansi's words, Ye Mingsheng couldn't help but fell into silence. Although he still didn't like Ma Runchuan, he had to admit that he was a little shaken by Gu Sansi's words.
Although it is emotionally satisfying to not use Ma Runchuan, as a person in power and a political figure, sometimes you cannot be too emotional. You need to make the choice that is most beneficial to you... ··
Seeing that Ye Mingsheng had stopped talking, Gu Sansi's heart suddenly ignited hope. He knew that Ye Mingsheng was very wary of the Cui family and other aristocratic families. If he used them to speak up, he would have a chance, so he struck while the iron was hot. , bowed deeply to Ye Mingsheng again, and said with great sincerity:
"Senior Brother Ma is so kind to me, and I have always wanted to find an opportunity to repay his kindness!"
"Sir, I have never asked you for anything during the time I have been following you. Could you please give Senior Brother Ma a chance just for my sake this time?"
Seeing that his chief adviser was talking about what he said, Ye Mingsheng felt that it would be too hurtful if he refused. He hesitated and said helplessly:
"Okay, because of his affection for you, let him go to Posuo Mansion and find a county to be a clerk!"
Although with Ma Runchuan's talent and experience, becoming a small chief clerk was not only a demotion but also a demotion, but Gu Sansi knew that it was not easy for Ye Mingsheng to let go at this time, and he immediately expressed his gratitude to Ye Mingsheng. Be thankful.
