Three Kingdoms

Chapter 226 The Book of Cai Mansion

When Fei Qian saw Cai Yong, his anxious heart finally relaxed. Especially when I learned that Shangshu Zhou Ao and City Gate Captain Wu Qiong were executed by Dong Zhuo for deceiving the emperor, I was even more worried. I was afraid that Master Cai Yong would be confused again and lose his life...

Because at this point, Dong Zhuo would behead anyone who dared to show his chariots and horses to block the move of the capital. He did not dare to say anything easily without looking at Yuan Wei, and acted like a good boy who could do whatever Dong Zhuo did. .

Fei Qian had always suspected that Shangshu Zhou Ao and City Gate Captain Wu Qiong were from Yuan Wei, because although these two people were promoted by Dong Zhuo, they seemed to have been serving the Yuan family from beginning to end, first for Yuan Shao He said good things, and then when recommending local governors, most of them were either members of the Yuan family, or people who were opposed to Dong Zhuo. They were simply the best examples of those who were willing to take advantage of others.

After all, the title of the Yuan family's disciples and former officials all over the world is not just a boast. Many officials will inevitably have some relationship with the Yuan family...

And this time, Yuan Wei asked Shangshu Zhou Ao and City Gate Captain Wu Qiong to openly block Dong Zhuo's carriage and horse, intending to express his opposition to the capital move in public. In addition to testing, he may not have the idea of ​​kidnapping public opinion.

But now, Dong Zhuo captured Shangshu Zhou Ai and City Gate Colonel Wu Qiong on the spot. He didn't even bother to do the cutscenes and directly pronounced the sentence to be executed without any buffer time such as imprisonment. On the one hand, it reflects Dong Zhuo's determination. , on the other hand, it also shocked Yuan Wei and his gang.

When Cai Yong saw Fei Qian, he sighed and said, "What Zi Yuan said is right..." Cai Yong's scenery and glory in his life were all in Luoyang, not to mention other things, just here in Luoyang. He is a doctor of Taixue. He had the Xiping Stone Scripture and left Luoyang, which was a deep blow to Cai Yong, both in public and private matters.

But yesterday in the court, Grand Tutor Yuan Wei's silence made Cai Yong very hurt.

Cai Yong's mother, Yuan, was born as the sister of Situ Yuan Pang. Yuan Pang is from the Yuan family of Chen State, and is not from the same branch as Yuan Wei's Runan family, but they both have the surname Yuan after all, so Cai Yong originally had a good impression of Yuan Wei, but now this feeling has completely disappeared... …

Hongnong Yang Biao was a Sili official, and Huang Wan had previously been favored by the Yang family. When these two people came out to oppose, they were not necessarily motivated by the public welfare of the country; and Yingchuan Xunshuang was promoted by Dong Zhuo after he came to power, so It's awkward most of the time, and Cai Yong can understand it in his role as a mediator...

Only Yuan Wei, the only prominent figure in the entire court who could compete with Dong Zhuo, and the leader of the noble clan who was gathering the Kanto nobles to openly resist Dong Zhuo, actually kept silent at such a critical moment...

Fei Qian said: "...the heads of Zhou Shangshu and Wu Xiaowei are already hanging outside the capital..." Although Shangshu and Xiaowei are not big, if we don't talk about the importance of Shangshu, let's just talk about the city gate school. Lieutenant, according to later generations, is like the chief of the police station in the capital district. He kills people whenever he wants, and his body parts are used for demonstrations. It is really miserable.

Speaking of these two people, Cai Yong felt both angry and chilled in his heart. Cai Yong knew Zhou Ao and Wu Qiong better than Fei Qian.

Zhou Ao is from Wuwei, so it is not wrong to be from Xiliang. However, his father Zhou Shen once served as the governor of Yuzhou, so he has a close relationship with the Yuan family in Runan...

Wu Qiong, the captain of the city gate, is from Runan...

So when Zhou Ao and Wu Qiong ended up like this, Cai Yongcai said that Fei Qian's predictions yesterday had become a reality, and he deeply felt Yuan Wei's hypocrisy.

Although Cai Yong is more upright, it does not mean that Cai Yong is stupid. As a person who can correct the fallacies of ancient scriptures and make the Xiping Stone Scripture, as long as he is given enough time to think carefully and find the flaws in the subtleties, it is not for Cai Yong. What a difficult thing.

Cai Yong sighed again and said: "Zhou Shangshu and Wu Xiaowei are really loyal people, but they have been reduced to this, which is really heartbreaking... and Grand Tuan Yuan is really heartbreaking..."

The biggest flaw of Grand Tutor Yuan Wei was that he didn't say a word at the court meeting! This problem is something that he can't remedy even if he abandons Zhou Ao and Wu Qiong afterwards.

And why didn't Yuan Wei oppose moving the capital?

Cai Yong really didn't dare to think about it anymore, which was why he felt Yuan Wei was hypocritical and didn't despise Yuan Wei as a human being...

If Yuan Wei does not object, it means that moving the capital is irreversible.

"...Guangwu established his capital here two hundred years ago...and now it is destroyed...and I can't stop him..." Cai Yong was heartbroken and extremely sad.

Fei Qian said: "...Is it destiny? Accept its righteousness. That's why those who know destiny do not stand under a rock wall. Those who die after doing their best are righteous lives, and those who shackle the dead are not righteous lives. A gentleman should do something about it. Doing or not doing something, doing it knowingly that it cannot be done, is unwise. The urgent thing at the moment is to follow the right path!"

Cai Yong looked at Fei Qian and asked, "What does Ziyuan mean by this? What is the right way?"

"Dare I ask what the master is good at?" Fei Qian did not answer directly, but asked Cai Yongdao.

"What am I good at?" Cai Yong murmured and repeated, thoughtfully.

Fei Qian said: "A gentleman is born according to destiny. He can't walk as well as a horse, can't swim as well as a porpoise, and can't climb as well as an ape. How can he be ranked first among the primates?"

"Hmm... Zi Yuan's idea is that a gentleman is good at learning, so he fakes his craftsmanship?" Cai Yong said.

Fei Qian replied: "Exactly! But how can a gentleman learn? There are many fallacies in the oral tradition. The master inscribed the classics in stone in Taixue, all because of the violent Qin Dynasty and the burning of books, so that the transmission of the classics was cut off and the inheritance was disordered!" Therefore, the king of Hejian paid a lot of money to ask for books, and King Gong of Lu dug up scriptures in Kong's house. Today, there are only thirty-nine Yili, and sixteen of the books are left. How sad? The master taught me the Zuo Zhuan of the Spring and Autumn Period, but at the end of the Qin Dynasty, it was passed down to oral teaching, so Although we know that there are biographies of Gongyang, Guliang, Zou, and Jia, among the four families, Gongyang and Guliang were fortunate enough to be established as academic officials, and they were left alive. The Zou family had no biography, and the Jia family had no books, so they were all lost. , how sad is that?"

Fei Qian stood up, bowed solemnly to Cai Yong, and said generously: "Now that the catastrophe is imminent, instead of disobeying orders and being shackled and dying, why not follow our righteous path and let the scholars in the world inherit it!"

"Disciple Qian, please master, please think twice and move the book to preserve the right path!"

Perhaps it was because Cai Yong was assigned by Emperor Ling to revise the scriptures. Nowadays, in the entire Han Dynasty, when it comes to private collections of books, if Cai Yong is ranked second, no one dares to be ranked first. Even Yingchuan Xun Neither the Jingxiang family nor the Jingxiang Pang family dared to say. If Cai Yan hadn't given away a batch when he got married, Cai Yong himself had been ruined several times, and the Cai family's library might have even more books now. many……

Ah, now it seems that the more I owe the chapter, the more I owe it... I'm going crazy... I feel so embarrassed...
