Three Kingdoms: Madam, I am a decent person

Chapter 165: Learning to Stand on Your Side
When Zhang Sui heard Tian Feng ask this, he secretly clicked his tongue.

It seems that we can't talk nonsense.

The news spread quickly.

If he talked nonsense, it would probably reach Yuan Shao's ears and he would be killed.

No wonder the ancients often said "Silence is golden".

However, now that Tian Feng asked me this, I have to say something.

Only if you speak nicely can you get attention.

It is very difficult to stay out of trouble when you are an official under someone else.

If you hold a higher position, others may not dare to bully you.

Your official position is too low, and if you don't take sides, others will have plenty of ways to deal with you.

Zhang Sui somewhat understood the TV dramas he watched before traveling through time, where many characters often stood on the wrong side and were killed.

I used to think they were so stupid. Why didn’t they just stay out of it?

Now we realize that they had no choice.

As a time traveler, for Zhang Sui, choosing a side is not too complicated.

Just aim at the celebrities of each period and stand on their side.

From now until the Battle of Guandu, if there are no accidents and history follows its original trajectory, then in the next ten years, the factions of Tian Feng and Ju Su will be the most popular under Yuan Shao.

This body of mine is from Yanmen County, Bingzhou, so it is reasonable for me to stand with the people of Jizhou faction.

There were two other factions under Yuan Shao: the Nanyang faction and the Yingchuan faction.

I have nothing to do with these two factions.

Can't catch up.

People also look down on me.

Thinking of this, Zhang Sui said: "Yes, I think so."

Tian Feng asked: "Reason?"

Zhang Sui organized his words in his mind, and then said: "First, the emperor is too young and can be easily deceived."

"And now the general needs to take down Gongsun Zan, Zhang Yan, and all of Hebei as soon as possible."

"We will take over Hebei as soon as possible so that we can recuperate and then sweep across other regions."

"A general needs to be decisive."

"It's best if no one interferes at this time."

"But once the emperor arrives, he is the most powerful. If he is bewitched, will the general resist?"

"General, if you resist, you are disobeying my order."

"Others will not care about his purpose. They will only say that he is taking advantage of his status as a descendant of the Yuan family, who has been a minister for four generations, and is acting recklessly and wants to be the second Dong Zhuo."

"At least, the ministers in the court are likely to do so."

Tian Feng: “.”

Zhang Sui continued: "Second, although the general has taken over most of Jizhou, Youzhou and Qingzhou."

"However, rebellions continue to occur in various places."

“There are still a large number of refugees around.”

"The second young lady of the Zhen family just came from Wuji County recently. I heard her say that there were corpses and bones everywhere on the road."

"It can be said that our current food and grass are still in short supply."

"If the emperor arrives in Yecheng, the necessary buildings must be there, right?"

"We can't let the emperor live in the government office, can we?"

"Even if the emperor can live there, where will the concubines live?"

"Also, when the emperor comes, there will definitely not be only one person."

"Those old ministers, they have to come, right?"

"You won't arrange accommodation for them?"

"Besides, these people are very venomous."

"They will use all kinds of rituals to suppress the generals."

Tian Feng frowned deeply.

Zhang Sui continued, "Of course, inviting the emperor to Yecheng has its benefits."

"Let's say that Wang Yi, the governor of Hedong County, colluded with the Xiongnu."

"Aren't they claiming to be loyal officials of the court?"

"If the emperor arrives in Yecheng, they will either be labeled as rebels or surrender completely."

"They are waving the banner of rebellion, so there is no need to be polite, just destroy them openly."

"Hedong County is completely under the general's control."

"If they choose to surrender."

"There are many aristocratic families in Hedong County, and we can collect some of the grain and grass."

"The Xiongnu's war horses are pretty good, which will help us recruit more cavalry." "This is a process of weighing the pros and cons."

"I guessed it. Yes, I personally guessed that the general might not serve the king after weighing the pros and cons."

"Anyway, I personally don't like having so many people weighing on my head."

What Zhang Sui said was false.

The so-called weighing of pros and cons is all fake.

Yuan Shao and his brothers are definitely the Dragon and the Phoenix.

They did not welcome the emperor simply because they wanted to be emperor.

Both brothers had an inexplicable obsession with becoming emperor.

Take the Rebellion of the Ten Eunuchs for example. Zhang Sui read a lot of information before traveling through time and suspected that it was directed and acted by the Yuan family.

The purpose was to bring in Dong Zhuo, a former student and official, to completely eliminate all obstacles that opposed the Yuan family's behind-the-scenes power.

But they didn't take into account the factor of Dong Zhuo.

After Dong Zhuo gained enormous power, his ambitions grew and he no longer cared about the Yuan family.

This is what caused the situation to become so chaotic.

Zhang Sui stopped talking here.

He is too young.

And no power.

Just stop there.

Talking too much can easily lead to trouble.

At this time, making some small mistakes is understandable and will not make people overly suspicious or even defensive.

Zhang Sui always kept in mind the principle that the first bird to stick its head out is the one that catches the eye.

Seeing that Zhang Sui didn't say anything else, Tian Feng raised his chin and said, "Continue."

Zhang Sui pretended to be surprised and said, "Ah? That's all I know."

Tian Feng: “.”

He felt a little disappointed.

However, he quickly adjusted.

After all, he is just a young boy.

It's amazing to know so much.

Much stronger than Yan Liang and Wen Chou.

Those two reckless men don't understand at all.

Yesterday, the lord summoned them to discuss this matter. The two reckless men looked very excited, thinking it was a good thing.

Tian Feng stood up and said to Zhang Sui, "I will go to see the lord later and ask you to attend the morning meeting tomorrow. You can tell the lord and other ministers what you just said."

"Behave yourself."

"Don't bring disgrace upon your master."

"With your vision and some achievements, you will have a bright future."

"Maybe, I can surpass Yan Liang, Wen Chou and others."

"Although the lord dotes on them, they are all warriors."

Zhang Sui hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you for your advice!"

Zhang Sui was about to send Tian Feng away.

Tian Feng waved his hand and said, "It's right outside my house. Don't send me off. Just take a good rest."

Zhang Sui still saw Tian Feng to the door.

Tian Feng muttered something to himself, but no one knew what he was saying, and he walked away.

Cai Wenji came out at this time and whispered: "How dare a noble prince come to ask a question about a mere governor!"

Zhang Sui turned around and smiled at Cai Wenji, "The deputy driver and the military supervisor are both very good people."

"Or rather, I am from Bingzhou."

"Bingzhou and Jizhou are adjacent."

"We are all one family!"

"Isn't it the same in the court? They form cliques and factions."

"Anything that can be helped and brought together, we will find a way to bring them together."

Cai Wenji thought of her father's tragic death and said sadly, "The disputes in the court are too thrilling."

Zhang Sui pinched her pretty face and said, "Don't worry, I will know how to handle it properly."

"I will evacuate before anything happens."

"I still want to spend every day with you, but I can't bear to die."

"Not to mention, it's causing trouble for you."
