Today is the day when the first batch of Cai's Mansion books are scheduled to be shipped, and Fei Qian comes to Cai Yong's house again.
Because he has been coming more often recently, it is a bit inconvenient to have to go through the door every time, so Cai Yong simply informed the concierge that if Fei Qian came by himself, he could come in directly without having to go through the door...
Therefore, when the concierge saw Fei Qian coming from a distance, he quickly ran down the steps, walked up a few steps to greet him, made a big salute, and hurriedly led the way.
Fei Qian took out a small bunch of five baht coins from his arms, threw it to the concierge, and said, "I can do it myself, don't bother me." Then he entered Cai Mansion amidst the joyful thanks from the concierge of Cai Mansion.
The housekeeper of the Cai Mansion was instructing people to clean the courtyard. When he saw Fei Qian coming, he bowed to Fei Qian and said, "I have met Mr. Fei, the old man is in the study..." After that, he would lead Fei Qian there.
.
Fei Qian returned the favor and said: "Don't dare to disturb the old housekeeper, just go away."
"That's fine. Mr. Fei, Mr. Fei, I didn't feel like eating the meat this morning. I would like to ask Mr. Fei to help me if it's convenient..."
Oh, this old man Cai is 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 room, Cai Yong saw Fei Qian. He first motioned for Fei Qian to sit down, and then said: "... Recently, many scribes have come out to hang seals..."
Fei Qian quickly realized that he was trying to undermine Dong Zhuo and Li Ru by not resisting!
For a government and a policy to operate as a whole, it is already very impressive that it can only extend to one county at most with just a few people. If it wants to expand, it is impossible without grassroots officials.
Although the entire Sili area is not as good as those big states, the population density is quite high. Without the officials at the bottom, how can the government's decrees be conveyed?
Now that these officials are resigning, it is equivalent to cutting off Dong Zhuo and Li Ru's plan to move the capital! This move really hits home. If it continues, it is quite possible that the capital relocation will become a word that can only exist in the court.
Plan, but failed to implement it...
This can be regarded as a special place in the Han Dynasty. For the local powerful people in the countryside, they are not qualified to fight in the court, but it does not hinder their status in the countryside. No matter who is the winner in the court in the end,
They are inseparable from their assistance, so perhaps during the betting process, some rural tycoons were killed by those in power, but as long as the vast majority of rural tycoons are willing to bow their heads to the winner, they will be accepted and survive.
This cycle continues until the next winner comes...
Therefore, the struggle between Dong Zhuo and Yuan Wei, for these rural powerful people who serve as low-level officials, they will fall to whoever 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 affected the foundations of these rural powerful men.
After leaving the homeland, it became an overseas Chinese surname!
How can this group of people accept this?
Especially the Hongnong Yang family from Sili’s native Tianxia Crown Clan!
Once they are forced to move to Chang'an, it will be no less than a huge disaster for the Yang family who has been running Sili for more than a hundred years!
But the news of the capital relocation was transmitted so quickly, and the resignations of grassroots officials were so coordinated and unified. It is simply impossible to say that there was no one behind the push...
Fei Qian thought for a moment and said, "There may be someone hiding behind the scenes..."
Cai Yong nodded and shook his head.
Because the officials who resigned this time were not from the same faction. Some belonged to the Yang family, some belonged to the Yuan family, and some still didn't know which faction they preferred...
Officials affiliated with the Yang family resigned. This was the proper intention, and Cai Yong could completely understand it.
But before, he felt that Yuan Wei was silent in the court and completely failed to fulfill the duties of a three-gong man. Now he found that Yuan Wei's faction was also doing this kind of behavior. This made Cai Yong a little confused. This Taifu Yuan
What is Wei's attitude?
At this moment, the old housekeeper of the Cai Mansion came to report in surprise, saying that there had just been rumors in the neighborhood that both Yang Taiwei and Huang Situ had resigned due to illness!
Cai Yong asked: "Is there any news about Taifu Yuan and Xun Sikong?"
The old housekeeper shook his head, saying that he had not heard anything about these two people, and then withdrew again.
Yuan Wei...
Xun Shuang...
Cai Yong frowned tightly.
The Yang family of Hongnong really fell out with Dong Zhuo this time, and the breakup was so complete...
But in comparison, the Yuan family and the Xun family seem much 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. Basically, they all quit the government, and the other faction was also very large.
, it seems that only a small part of the Yuan family members who have many connections have withdrawn.
As for those whose sects are not yet clear, some of them are some small gentry in the Heluo area, and the other part may be followers...
As a member of the Xun family who has just ascended to the position of the Three Dukes, they are also unusually low-key. The Third Duke Xun Shuang is naturally more eye-catching, so it is understandable that he stays behind closed doors. However, I heard that even Xun You claimed to be ill and refused to publish anything.
Any opinions on moving the capital will inevitably have some problems.
What on earth are the Yuan family and the Xun family doing?
In fact, anyone who has lived in one place for a long time would be willing to move to a relatively unfamiliar place without any preparation?
What's more, what if you move from a relatively affluent place to a relatively not so good place?
Therefore, Cai Yong, like most people, is unwilling to move the capital from his heart. However, Cai Yong also knows that although he has a certain reputation in the cultural world, when it comes to political control and influence, and the current situation
Comparing these three officials, they are really far behind...
It can be said that all the officials in the entire court are now looking at the direction of these people of Sangong. The attitude of Sangong will determine the attitude of the vast majority of officials towards the relocation of the capital!
Under the current situation, the two largest factions in the imperial court, the Yang family of Hongnong, a native of Sili, have unsurprisingly expressed strong opposition, while Xun Shuang, who has just ascended the throne from Yingchuan in the opposition, has an unclear attitude...
The Yuan family, which has a large number of disciples and former officials, both in the government and the public, and across the country, is unpredictable. It may be said that they support moving the capital, but the Yuan family also shows some opposition; if it is said,
Oppose it, it seems that it is not as thorough as the Yang family's opposition...
Cai Yong had been thinking about it since the morning, and he didn't even have the heart to eat breakfast. At this moment, he suddenly thought of a possibility, but then rejected this terrible idea...
Cai Yong looked at Fei Qian beside him. Perhaps it was a bystander, but Ziyuan could see it more clearly...
Why didn't Yuan Wei oppose moving the capital in history?
There was once a saying that Yuan Wei was timid by nature, so he was afraid of Dong Zhuo and did not dare to oppose him. But after experiencing so many incidents, including two party bans and even palace coups, how could he still be so timid?
