Chapter 223: Proposal to move the capital (monthly ticket plus 50 updates)
Fei Qian visited Cai Yong again and said with a heavy heart: "Master, does he know that Dong Zhuo defeated Yingchuan''s troops in Yingshui? The prefect of Yingchuan cooked the food alive, and the Yingshui was filled with corpses and turned into a river of blood..."
“How did you know?” Cai Yong was also very shocked when he heard this.
“It has spread throughout the city.” Fei Qian said. The news could be transmitted so fast and spread throughout the city. It was probably Li Ru himself who sent someone to reveal it, and others were unlikely to be able to do this.
“How is Yangdi now?” Cai Yong asked. The soldiers of Yingchuan were slaughtered, which means that the gate of Yangdi, which is the seat of Yingchuan, is wide open and undefended, and most of the famous families in Yingchuan are near Yangdi...
Fei Qian shook his head and said, "Yangzhai hasn''t heard any news yet, so I guess it''s fine."
Fei Qian looked at Cai Yong and said, "Tomorrow is the meeting of the imperial court. I''m afraid they will discuss moving the capital!"
“Move the capital? Why move the capital? Where do you want to move?”
Fei Qian explained to Cai Yong in detail the inferences he had made with Cao Cao before, and said: "... Now, taking advantage of the power of victory, persecution and relocation of the capital are a foregone conclusion... Tomorrow, the great dynasty will not do it. Advise, those who persuade will die..."
?Fei Qian’s biggest worry is that Master Cai Yong rushes out to dissuade him at the court meeting tomorrow. Dong Zhuo will surely capture him then, and he might even kill him on the spot, so he came here to remind him...
Cai Yong stood up with a loud sound, frowned, walked around the hall twice with his hands behind his back, and said, "You shouldn''t have come to this. If the three princes dissuade you, how dare you do harm?"
Fei Qian said: "If the matter of moving the capital is discussed tomorrow, and most of the three princes are serious people, how can they say it lightly? How can the power of the prime minister be wasted just by words? Therefore, there must be those who are anxious and stone-throwing first..."
Those old foxes like San Gong will definitely not easily jump out to fight Dong Zhuo. They may refute it verbally, but that''s it. They definitely won''t use force with open swords and guns. At most, they can send some younger brothers first. To explore the way, these younger brothers will definitely become cannon fodder. After Dong Zhuo kills these young minions who jumped out to scare the monkeys, these three princes will naturally know that Dong Zhuo is determined to move the capital. Whoever persuades anyone to die will never come out again. Bad luck?
Of course, maybe Hongnong Yang will be a little tougher, but it may not be entirely from the standpoint of the country, and this tough estimate is also extremely limited...
Cai Yong thought about it again and again, but shook his head and said, "This is a major matter for the family and the country, how can we sacrifice our lives for the sake of life and death? If the three princes don''t say anything, I will speak out!"
oops!
Master, wasn’t it the reason why I ran over so quickly to prevent you from seeking death? Why is it so clear now that you, old man, are still going to die...
Besides, you are just a lieutenant, and people with much higher official titles than you will not say much. You say you...
??However, what Fei Qian wanted to say directly did not sound very good, and Cai Yong might not be able to listen to it, so he racked his brains with a frown on his face, always looking for a better way to enter...

After the news of the defeat of Li Min, the governor of Yingchuan, spread, Luoyang, which was originally agitated, suddenly fell into a deathly silence...
?Although some people did not believe it, the news that came later made many people suddenly become cautious.
?That was a prefect worth two thousand dan, and he was cooked alive like this, tsk tsk...
?It is said that the beautiful water turned red for three days before gradually turning clear again. I heard that the whole river was filled with floating headless corpses...
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? With the low-level officials who were chatting together seeing Li Ru approaching, they quickly signaled to each other, hurriedly hid aside, and respectfully cleared the way for Li Ru.
?Li Ru looked forward, not even interested in taking a look at these people, and just walked by proudly.
What is the use of killing a small local tycoon? Even if they killed a hundred local tycoons, they still didn''t directly eliminate one of the Kwantung Allied Forces. It''s scary!
When the news about the defeat of Dong Zhuo''s army by Bai Bo''s army spread, the officials in Luoyang were still a little impetuous, and many people even started to openly go to the Yuan family''s house and queue up to ask for an audience...
?Now the front door of the Yuan Family Mansion suddenly became deserted.
??Dong Zhuo turned out not to be a showman!
??So what if the Kwantung Allied Forces are powerful?
In this way, Dong Zhuo''s army easily massacred all the soldiers and horses in Yingchuan under the eyes of the Suanzao coalition. In this way, the strength of the Kwantung coalition and Dong Zhuo''s army will have to be re-evaluated...
??What Li Ru needed was this kind of effect, and in this atmosphere, with the prestige of this victory, he could start a plan to move the capital...

The next day happened to be the Great Court Meeting of the Han Dynasty.
There were two types of court meetings in the Han Dynasty. One was a large-scale court meeting held at the beginning of the year. When the sky was dim, the court meeting was led by the ceremonial officer and hundreds of civil and military officials to enter the palace gate according to their rank. The palace displays chariots and cavalry guards as well as various flags and ceremonial objects. When the ceremony officials heard about the "trend", all civil and military officials marched forward neatly and orderly, arranged in east-west and east-west classes. The emperor came to court in a carriage surrounded by his chamberlain, amidst the sounds of bells, drums, and ritual music.
?This kind of New Year''s Day gathering is attended by the most people, and there are even people from foreign countries paying their respects...
The other kind is the court meeting held on the first day of each month. This kind of meeting is "...the court meeting of the princes, ministers, generals, officials, and officials..." to report on some matters of each department last month and discuss some It is basically a major political event in which all officials with more than 600 shi must attend the meeting and make implementation arrangements for state affairs.
?This court meeting is a large-scale meeting once a month, and all officials with more than 600 shi are present.
??Dong Zhuo was the prime minister. He could go to court with swords and shoes, and he did not need to pay homage to the emperor when he saw him. When all the officials arrived, Dong Zhuofang came to the main hall with a sway, and sat down in the prime minister''s seat next to the emperor''s seat. He pursed his lips, had a stern look on his face, and had blood-red eyes. Sweeping across the officials from left to right, many officials who were seen by Dong Zhuo seemed to shrink subconsciously.
Dong Zhuo''s eyes immediately stayed on Taifu Yuan Wei, but Yuan Wei kept his head lowered, eyebrows lowered and silent. From Dong Zhuo''s point of view, Yuan Wei''s face could not be seen, so he could not guess what happened at this time. Yuan Wei has some ideas.
?But now it doesn’t matter if Yuan Wei has any ideas...
Amidst the sound of ritual music, Emperor Liu Xie came out and ascended the throne. After he sat down, all the officials paid homage to the emperor. However, because Dong Zhuo was also sitting next to the golden throne, and physically speaking, he was Liu Xie. It was several times that of Xie, so at a quick glance, Liu Xie was even ignored, as if officials were paying homage to Dong Zhuo.
Liu Xie glanced at Dong Zhuo secretly, and then waved his hand slightly. The **** standing next to Liu Xie shouted in a high voice that if something happened, he would report quickly, but if nothing happened, he would leave the court...
Li Ru, with a sullen face, stepped out from the crowd and said, "Luoyang, the eastern capital of the Han Dynasty, has been declining for two hundred years. Now Chang''an is full of auspiciousness. I wish your majesty the best wishes!"
As soon as he said this, everyone was shocked!
The weather here in Chongzuo is weird... it rains in the morning, light rain in the morning, overcast at noon, and cloudy in the afternoon. It is like this every day... It was so hot two days ago that I wore short-sleeves, and these two days it was so cold that I wore a cotton-padded jacket... I really need to practice immortality. What...
