Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 231 Demolition

  Today is the day when the first batch of books from Cai's mansion were agreed to be shipped, and Fei Qian came to Cai Yong's mansion again.

  Because the number of visits has increased recently, it is inconvenient to report each time, so Cai Yong simply informed the porter that if Fei Qian came by himself, he could come in directly without reporting...

  So the porter saw Fei Qian approaching from afar, and hurriedly ran down the steps, took a few steps to meet him, and after paying a big salute, hurriedly led the way.

  Fei Qian took out a small string of five baht coins from his bosom, threw it to the porter, and said, "I'll do it myself, don't bother me." Then he entered the Cai Mansion amidst the joyful thanks of the Cai Mansion porter.

  The steward of the Cai Mansion was instructing the people to clean the courtyard. When he saw Fei Qian coming, he bowed his hand to Fei Qian and said, "I have seen Mr. Fei, the old man is in the study..." After speaking, he was about to lead Fei Qian to go.

  Fei Qian bowed his hand in return, and said, "Don't dare to bother the old housekeeper, just go by yourself."

   "That's fine. Mr. Fei, Mr. Fei, I don't want to eat today. Please help Mr. Fei if it's convenient..."

  Oh, this old man Cai, probably not very happy.

   So Fei Qian responded, offered his hand to the old housekeeper, and went to the study.

   When he arrived at the study, Cai Yong saw Fei Qian, first motioned for Fei Qian to sit down, and then said: "... Recently, there are many scribes with seals..."

   Fei Qian quickly realized that this is using the method of non-resistance to demolish Dong Zhuo and Li Ru!

  For a government and a policy to operate as a whole, it is already very remarkable that it can only be extended to a county with only a few people. If it is to be expanded, it is impossible without grassroots officials.

  Although the entire Sili region is not as good as those big states, its population density is quite high. Without low-level officials, how can the government orders of the court be conveyed?

   Now that these officials resign, it is tantamount to cutting off Dong Zhuo and Li Ru's plan to move the capital! This move really hits the nail on the head. If it develops because of this, it will turn the capital relocation into a verbal plan that can only exist in the court, and it will not be implemented...

This can be regarded as a special place in the Han Dynasty. For the tyrants in the local countryside, they are not qualified for the disputes above the court, but it does not hinder their status in the countryside, no matter who the winner above the court is, They are all inseparable from their assistance, so maybe some rural tyrants were killed by those in power during the betting process, but the vast majority of rural tyrants will be accepted and survived as long as they are willing to bow their heads to the winners. Such reincarnation until the next victor above the court comes...

   Therefore, the struggle between Dong Zhuo and Yuan Kui, for these low-level officials in the country, is that whoever is stronger will fall to whomever is stronger, and they will not have any special opinions. But this time this group of people showed such a tough attitude, presumably because Dong Zhuo's move to move the capital touched the foundations of these rural tyrants.

  Leaving the mainland, it becomes an overseas Chinese surname!

  How can this group of people accept this?

  Especially the Hongnong Yang family, the Tianxia crown family native to Sili!

  Once forced to relocate to Chang'an, it would be no less than a huge disaster for the Yang family who has been running Sili for more than a hundred years!

  However, the news of the relocation of the capital can be transmitted so quickly, and the resignation of grassroots officials is so coordinated, it is simply impossible to say that no one is behind it...

  Fei Qian thought for a while, and said: "This matter, there may be someone hiding behind the scenes..."

  Cai Yong nodded, then shook his head again.

  Because the officials who resigned this time are not from the same faction, some belong to the Yang family, some belong to the Yuan family, and some are not clear which faction they tend to...

  The resignation of officials affiliated to the Yang family is the proper meaning, and Cai Yong can fully understand it.

But before he felt that Yuan Kai kept silent in the court hall and completely failed to fulfill the duty of a three-lord, and now he found that Yuan Kai's faction was also doing this kind of action, which made Cai Yong a little confused. What is Kui's attitude?

   At this moment, the old housekeeper of the Cai Mansion came to report in surprise, saying that there were rumors in the neighborhood that Yang Taiwei and Huang Situ both claimed to be sick and resigned from office!

  Cai Yong asked: "Is there any news about Yuan Taifu and Xun Sikong?"

  The old butler shook his head, saying that he hadn't heard any news about these two people, and then withdrew again.

  Yuan Kui...

  Xun Shuang...

  Cai Yong frowned tightly.

  Hongnong’s Yang family really fell out with Dong Zhuo this time, and they broke so completely…

   But in comparison, the Yuan family and the Xun family seem a lot more ambiguous...

Cai Yong thought about it carefully, and suddenly discovered a problem. Those low-level officials who resigned, who had some connection with the Yang family, belonged to the Hongnong Yang family faction, and basically all quit the government, and the other faction was also very large. It seems that only a small part of the people of the Yuan family who have many connections have withdrawn.

   And those who are not yet clear what faction they are, some are some small gentry in the Heluo area, and the other part may be followers...

And as the Xun family who just ascended to the position of Sangong, they also appear to be unusually low-key. The Sangong Xun Shuang is naturally more eye-catching, so it is understandable for him to stay behind closed doors, but I heard that even Xun You said he was sick and did not publish Any opinions on moving the capital, this is a bit problematic.

  What are the Yuan and Xun families doing?

  In fact, anyone who has lived in one place for a long time would be willing to move to a relatively strange place without any preparation?

   Besides, what if you migrate from a richer place to a relatively less good place?

Therefore, Cai Yong, like most people, is unwilling to move the capital from the bottom of his heart, but Cai Yong also knows that although he has a certain reputation in the cultural world, he has to talk about the control and influence of the government, which is different from the current situation. Comparing these three officials, the difference is really too far...

   It can be said that all the officials of the entire imperial court are now looking at the direction of these people from the Sangong. The attitude of the Sangong will determine the attitude of most officials towards the move of the capital!

  In today’s current situation, the two largest factions in the imperial court, the native Hongnong Yang family in Sili, have unsurprisingly expressed strong opposition tendencies, while Xun Shuang, who has just ascended the throne from Yingchuan in opposition, has an unclear attitude...

Whether it is in the ruling and opposition parties, or in all parts of the country, the Yuan family, who has a large number of disciples and former officials, is unpredictable. It is said that it supports moving the capital, but the Yuan family has shown some opposition; Oppose it, it seems that it is not as thorough as the Yang family's opposition...

  Cai Yong has been thinking about it since the morning, and he didn't even have the heart to eat the candied fruit. At this moment, his heart suddenly moved, and he thought of a possibility, but then he rejected this terrible idea...

  Cai Yong looked at Fei Qian who was at the side, perhaps the bystanders could see clearly, but Ziyuan could see it more clearly...

   Why didn’t Yuan Kai object to moving the capital in history?

   There used to be a saying that Yuan Kui was timid by nature, so he was afraid of Dong Zhuo and dared not object, but after going through so many incidents, including two party bans and even palace changes, how could he still be so timid?

so…
