Chapter 255: The interests of the Yizhou system
Qian Zhou sat quietly on the top position, as if he couldn't hear the noise of the crowd, closed his eyes and recuperated, and looked like he was completely outside.
In fact, the waves in his heart are turbulent, above the court, the original ten or nine stable discussions on reducing Wei were disrupted by Liu Yin, and what made Chen Zhou even more depressed was that Jianning Taishou Huo Yi suddenly came to the Golden Palace, it can be said that Huo Yi's arrival almost played a decisive role, and Liu Chan finally decided to move the capital, which obviously had a lot to do with Huo Yi.
It's a failure! Qian Zhou had already thought of all the countermeasures before the court meeting, and he had already expected that Zhang Shao, Liu Yin and others would try their best to oppose it, but after thousands of calculations, they still missed Huo Yi's factor.
For the Yizhou local faction, Chengdu is their roots, there are their fields and real estate, there are also their connections, is their cornerstone, leaving Shu, just like a tree to remove its roots, fish to leave the Ze, lose the soil on which they depend, Yizhou faction will inevitably perish.
The world of the Han family was originally the world of the scholar family, but compared with the scholar family in the north and the scholar family in Jiangdong, the scholar family in Yizhou seems to have been surviving in the cracks, and the Yizhou faction has never given birth to a leader-level figure at the level of the princes of the separatist side. In order to stabilize the situation in Shu, Liu Yan reused the Dongzhou system and suppressed Yizhou, which made the local Yizhou system headed by Zhang Song defect to Liu Bei's side.
But since Liu Bei entered Shu, the local faction in Yizhou did not get the position they desired, but because of the influx of the Yuan Cong faction and the Jingxiang faction, the situation in Yizhou became more chaotic. Ensure that Liu Bei has enough ability to take it to Hanzhong and the eastern expedition to Wu.
But with the collapse of Liu Bei after the defeat of Yiling, the situation in Yizhou has developed from the side by side of the four factions to a dominant pattern, after Zhuge Liang, who was born in the Jingxiang faction, came to power, the power of the Jingzhou faction is in full swing, and the Yizhou faction seems to have no future.
After Zhuge Liang, Jiang Wan, Fei Yi, Dong Yun, and Jiang Wei (although Jiang Wei was not born in Jingxiang. But he was promoted and reused by Zhuge Liang, and was also regarded as a member of the Jingxiang faction), Chen Yi, Fan Jian, Dong Ju, and Zhuge Zhan, all of whom were Jingxiang factions, and the Yizhou native faction was basically marginalized in the power core of Shu Han.
But no one can ignore the strength of the Yizhou system, after all, the Yizhou family has existed on this land for hundreds of years, passed down from generation to generation, and has a rich heritage, the land around Chengdu. At least more than seventy percent belong to the Yizhou Shi family, and hundreds of thousands of tenants are attached to the Yizhou Shi family, even when Zhuge Liang was in power, although the Yizhou Shi family was squeezed out, but they did not dare to kill them all, once the entire Yizhou Shi family united to resist, the status of the Liu dynasty would also be in jeopardy.
But moving the capital was tantamount to a devastating blow to the Yizhou Shi family, leaving the land of Shuzhong. The soil on which the Yizhou Shijia relied for their survival was gone, and after arriving in Nanzhong. They will also become outsiders, and the Yizhou faction, which does not have much political status in the first place, will surely sink completely after losing its geographical advantage.
As the leader of the local faction in Yizhou, Qian Zhou naturally had the duty to stand up and persuade Liu Chan to surrender to Wei. As for the consequences after the surrender of Wei, Qian Zhou naturally did not know how Sima Zhao would treat Liu Chan. But it doesn't matter, what matters is how to protect the interests of the Yizhou family.
The world is based on the scholar family, whether it is Cao Wei or Shu Han, they can't escape this, even if they surrender to Wei. It will never shake the status of the Yizhou scholars, and it is even more affordable than the Liu family, after all, the power center of Cao Wei is in the Central Plains, and Shu still needs Shu people to govern.
However, the development of things was not predictable by Qian Zhou, Liu Chan decided to move the capital, which undoubtedly put the plan that Qian Zhou had thought out so hard in vain, and also pushed the entire Yizhou Shi family to the cusp of the storm.
Hearing Li Hu say this, Qian Zhou slowly opened his eyes, his expression was also a little tired, and he was a little lonely, he said slowly: "Since Your Majesty has ordered to move south, you better pack up early and prepare to leave." ”
Everyone was stunned, Zhou Ju said: "Teacher, you must not, Chengdu is the foundation of our waiting, and abandoning Chengdu is like a rootless duckweed, ups and downs and destruction, all in the hands of others, sitting in everyone, I don't know how many people can be saved." I can't leave Chengdu even if I die! ”
Qian Zhou smiled bitterly and said: "The old man has tried his best, but the saint does not accept the advice of loyalty, ignoring the life and death of the people in Shu, the matter has come to this point, and he has no power to return to heaven." ”
Shang Shu Xu You said: "Why should Gong Chen be arrogant, the matter has come to this point, if we don't fight the Yizhou family, we can only sit and wait for death." There is a plan to ensure that the public's strategy is successful. ”
Qian Zhou's originally gloomy eyes suddenly lit up, and he said in a deep voice: "What is the plan? ”
Xu You's eyes flashed with a touch of ruthlessness, and said: "The Son of Heaven Luan plans to leave the palace at noon tomorrow, and we can secretly ambush the dead outside the Xuanchong Gate, and cooperate with the inner Ying of Yulin Weizhong to hold the Son of Heaven hostage." After the capture of the Son of Heaven, the matter of moving the capital does not exist anymore. After succeeding, you can withdraw to Guan County, and the younger brother is the Guan County Order, and there is no problem in basing yourself in Guan County. You can send an envoy to contact the Wei Governor Zhonghui, as long as the Wei army comes, the overall situation in Shu will be peaceful. ”
It can't be said that Xu You's plan is bold and crazy, holding the Son of Heaven hostage, that is the crime of rebellion, if it is done, if it is not done, it is the crime of the three clans. Some of the people present secretly gasped, and some looked horrified, but most of them were still excited, obviously Xu You's plan was still quite tempting.
Yin Zong said with some concern: "The military power in Beijing is all in the hands of Liu Yin and Dong Ju, not to mention that the Son of Heaven must be heavily guarded, how can it be easily obtained?" If it is done, it will be done, and if it is not done, everyone here will have the disaster of extermination. ”
Xu You's eyes showed an aggressive coldness, and he said in a deep voice: "Instead of sitting and waiting to die, it is better to rise up and do the opposite, sooner or later it will be a dead end, so why die?" All of you here, that is not the one who raised countless dead soldiers, the two sons of the Duke of Chen, Chen Xian and Chen Tong, are both Yu Linlang, as long as you are of the same heart, the inside and the outside should be together, why can't you do anything? ”
"Okay, the matter has come to this, there is no way back, we might as well listen to Xu Shangshu's words and fight hard!" There are manpower to support the tour.
Xu You said with a smile: "Xu Moucai is shallow and thin, how to convince the public, this matter should be headed by Gong Chen, and with the prestige of Gong Gong, if you raise your arms and shout, there will be countless responders." I don't know what the prince thinks? (To be continued......)
