The most arrogant in history

Ruan Xiong and the others were crushed by Ye Kun in all aspects. They no longer dared to be self-righteous. They clasped their fists together and said, "Your Majesty is a man of great talent and strategy. We can only quote from the classics and dare not compare with him."

At this moment, Ye Kun also felt blushing amid the praise and compliments from everyone.

Fortunately, I remembered the article "On Youthful China" and downloaded it.

Otherwise, the articles you write yourself will never be as good as those of the Seven Freaks of the Bamboo Forest!

Leave the university and return to the palace.

Ye Kun discovered that the article spread so quickly that the princes and princesses in the palace all had handwritten copies of "On Youthful China" and were excitedly reading and discussing it.

Xie Baochan smiled and said, "Your Majesty has not written an article or poem for a long time. I didn't expect that this time, it would be a masterpiece that will be passed down through the ages. I think this article is unprecedented and will never be surpassed. It will surely be remembered forever."

Liu Yuejuan, Wei Caiqin, the Xiahou sisters and others, all scholars, praised Ye Kun with smiles on their faces.

The emperor writes well, and we should all be proud of it.

"It's not a great article. I just got so angry at Ruan Xiong and the others that I wrote a few sentences out of excitement."

Ye Kun chuckled: "Anyway, today is not too embarrassing. I have the upper hand in the debate with the scholars. By the way, let's study the matter of the Imperial Palace Food Festival."

Jiang Yourong and others smiled bitterly.

This emperor is really full of energy.

Jiang Yourong ordered the palace maid to bring the food festival activity plan to Ye Kun.

Ye Kun put forward some suggestions and made some adjustments, asking everyone to speed up preparations.

The next day, at the meeting of the nine ministries, Sang Buyi was all smiles as he handed over the confessions of Ruan Xiong, Zhuang Buwen and others, and said with a smile:

"Your Majesty, Ruan Xiongzhuang Buwen and others have already admitted their guilt and handed in their confession letters."

Ye Kun glanced at the confession letter and shook his head, saying, "They are innocent to begin with, so why would they write a confession? Forget it, let them go home. I don't want to argue with these old sour scholars."

He Kangju said: "Your Majesty, Ruan Xiong has donated the score of Guangling San, and hopes to perform it in public so that this ancient music can be passed down."

"Sure. Let Ruan Xiong perform at the Yanhuang Altar tomorrow. Notify the music teachers and students at the university to go and support and appreciate this legendary divine song."

Ye Kun nodded and agreed.

Sang Buyi added: "The day for Princess Mingzhu's marriage is approaching. All matters have been arranged. Please approve it, Your Majesty."

Ye Kun sighed, reviewed the schedule and other matters, and nodded:

"Let's do this. On September 28th, Crown Prince Ye Feng will lead the honor guard to escort Princess Mingzhu to set off. Lu Kaijiang will lead 3,000 troops to serve as escort. In this way, we can reach the north of Yanshan Mountain on October 6th."

Everyone felt that Ye Kun was in a bad mood, so they didn't dare to say much and hurriedly adjourned the meeting.

……

The Yanhuang Altar is also the altar for offering sacrifices to heaven in the new capital of Zhuo County.

There is a large square in front of the altar, covering an area of ​​several dozen acres.

Upon learning that Ruan Xiong was going to perform "Guangling San" here, many scholars from Zhuo County came.

Ye Kun did not go, but appointed Sang Buyi and He Kangju to attend, which showed his respect for traditional culture.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Ruan Xiong arrived with his Yaoqin. After washing his hands and face, he burned incense in front of the statues of Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang, and then began to play.

The audience of more than 3,000 people was in complete silence.

Ruan Xiong was playing the piano with great concentration when suddenly a group of college students rushed up, each holding a manuscript in their hand and reciting "Chinese Youth" aloud.

The scene suddenly became chaotic.

Sang Buyi and He Kangju shouted to stop them, but more and more students gathered and recited in unison, completely drowning out Ruan Xiong's piano music.

Ruan Xiong was extremely embarrassed. He stopped playing silently, bowed deeply to Sang Buyi and others, and left the stage sadly.

However, the excited students surrounded Ruan Xiong and others, shouting and cursing:

"Take your Guangling San into the coffin. No one wants your stuff! We are the emperor's subjects. You are committing a heinous crime by attacking the emperor!"

Sang Buyi was worried about something happening, so he ordered the officers and soldiers on the scene to be on alert immediately and protect Ruan Xiong.

Lu Kaijiang arrived with his troops and fired warning shots continuously, which finally calmed down those college students!

At this time, Ye Kun was in the Science and Technology City, checking the scientific research reports of the past few days.

After receiving the urgent report, Ye Kun told Sang Buyi:

"Maintain law and order at the scene, and do not harm any student. Mobilize the city defense forces and disperse other irrelevant personnel. I will go to the university town tomorrow and personally comfort these students."

After giving the order, Ye Kun returned immediately.

At this time, the students of the Yanhuang Forum had been persuaded to return and disperse.

Ma Zhao was very angry and said to Ye Kun: "This situation is considered a riot. The students who led the riot should be severely investigated."

Ye Kun shook his head and smiled:

"Master Ma is wrong. This is the students' trust and support for the court, and their contempt for the old scholars. This shows that young people have grown up and have their own ideas. It's a good thing that young people are a little passionate, but their behavior is inappropriate. Tomorrow I will go to the two universities to personally appease these students."

Ma Zhao thought about it, seemed to understand something, and nodded slightly.

In fact, this was a scene that Ye Kun was happy to see.

He wanted to use young people and militia to deal with local gentry and old intellectuals.

The situation in Zhuo County and Central Plains was not so bad. The big landlords had all been dealt with by Xiahou Chang, and only a few small landlords were left.

However, there were many wealthy and powerful people in Jiangnan who controlled the grassroots and were two-faced and pretended to obey the court.

Especially in the mountainous areas of Fujian, Jiangxi, Hunan, and Guangdong, because of the complex terrain and poor transportation, large clans usually live together and there are many mountains.

The county magistrate is there, but his words are not effective.

The clan leaders and the gentry are the real managers.

Every year's large-scale armed fights originate from these places. Beating people to death is commonplace, and it is not surprising that dozens of people are killed or injured at a time.

Therefore, Ye Kun has been thinking about launching a large-scale action to use young people to deal with these local old stubborn people.

In this debate at the university, Ye Kun mobilized the emotions of the young people and made Ruan Xiong and others embarrassed.

The South can do this too!

Upon hearing this, He Kangju frowned slightly, with a lot on his mind.

Obviously, He Kangju was keenly aware in this incident that Ye Kun wanted to use young people to make a big change!

Birds of a feather flock together. Fundamentally speaking, He Kangju, Liu Ai and others are in the same camp as the Seven Freaks of the Bamboo Forest.

The Seven Freaks of the Bamboo Forest were completely humiliated by Ye Kun, so He Kangju felt like a fox mourning the loss of a rabbit?

Who will be next?

These old Confucian scholars are all in danger.

Ye Kun didn't say much about this matter, and ordered: "Everyone, please arrange the princess's marriage first. After sending the princess away, we will also have a food festival to have fun with the people."

Everyone nodded and left.

Ye Kun returned to the imperial study to prepare for the comfort exchange at the university tomorrow.

The next day, Ye Kun arrived at Kyushu University early and communicated with the principal and teachers first, and asked student representatives to come to the auditorium.

Soon, more than a hundred student representatives lined up to enter the auditorium and saluted Ye Kun.

Ye Kun returned the greeting with a fist, asked everyone to sit down, and consoled them:

"Dear students, I understand your feelings very well, but your actions yesterday were too radical. China is a country of etiquette and should accommodate different voices, cultures and art forms.

Ruan Xiong's promotion of traditional music is also commendable. We need to learn new techniques and have our own ideas, but we cannot completely deny traditional culture..."

The students all admired Ye Kun very much and applauded enthusiastically from time to time.

Ye Kun was also very satisfied. He gave everyone some chicken soup and some chicken blood. The speech was very successful!

In the afternoon, Ye Kun went to the International University again and gave an exchange speech.

Finally, the matter was settled.

Unexpectedly, in the afternoon at the University of Nations, the Queen of Loulan, Ayiman, was also in the audience!

After the speech, Ye Kun walked with Ayiman in the school and asked with a smile: "Your Majesty, why are you in college?"

“I came to visit your university.”

Ayiman smiled and said enviously, "We don't have any schools in Loulan, but you have so many beautiful universities in the Han Dynasty. It's great."

"What's the big deal? If you like, I can help you build a Loulan University."

"But we don't have that many students, so let's just forget it." Ayiman smiled and said:

"Loulan sent me an urgent message asking me to go back. I came to the university to say goodbye to you."

"Are you leaving so soon? Didn't we agree to play for another month?" Ye Kun was a little surprised.

"An urgent report from Loulan says that my uncle has put my mother under house arrest and seems to want my throne."

Ayiman looked gloomy: "Maybe when I go back, I will no longer be a queen, but a prisoner. However, I don't want to be the king."
