When Fang Zhiwen received the news, it was the second day after the relevant person received the edict. And it was only after Lu Bu took the initiative to write a letter to ask Fang Zhiwen about his opinion. If he went through a formal channel, Fang Zhiwen would have to wait a day to get a copy of the edict from Liu Yu.

Tian Feng poured a cup of tea for Fang Zhiwen and gently pushed it to Fang Zhiwen. Fang Zhiwen narrowed his eyes and thought, silently sniffing the short-shallow tea cup for a long time.

"Yuan Hao, this is a foolish move! Dong Zhuo, no, isn't Li Ru's actions force Ding Yuan to brighten the flag? Ding Yuan has absolutely no strength to enter the Central Plains now. If Ding Yuan resists the order or refuses, Dong Zhuo will issue an edict to order the surrounding princes to attack Bingzhou, right?"

Tian Feng twisted his goatee's beard, and his round face was also confused.

"I think so too. Could it be that there is any article here? We might as well follow this idea to think about how the situation will change in the future, and then look back and consider Dong Zhuo's ideas!"

"I understand, think along the way!"

"Haha, did the lord learn these nouns from Miss Xueyin? These are words that Yiren likes to use!"

"Hey, Yuan Hao has heard of it too!"

"Why haven't you heard that the teachers in Xilin Academy often get new nouns to promote them in class, but these nouns are very appropriate."

The two of them unknowingly went off topic. This kind of thing happened often. Fang Zhiwen really liked to jump around, and sometimes he would take Tian Feng into the ditch.

"Oh, then if Dong Zhuo follows what he is doing now, how will the situation change?"

Tian Feng didn't think Fang Zhiwen's thinking was jumping at all. He was already used to Fang Zhiwen's personality. He was no longer surprised. Tian Feng thought for a moment and spoke.

"First of all, this edict will arouse the vigilance of the Central Plains clans, including Yuan Shu who is fighting now and Zhang Miao who is preparing to fight, which may very likely lead to a cooling of the rising situation in the Central Plains."

Fang Zhiwen thought about it and it was true. When foreign enemies appeared, internal chaos would at least temporarily calm down. Everyone should take time to observe the changes in the situation, and at the same time make preparations for changes. These will temporarily ease the ongoing war or the prepared war.

However, this effect is contrary to the purpose of Dong Zhuo's issuance of the edict. Even if Dong Zhuo is too afraid of the combination of Ding Yuan and King Chenliu, he can wait a little longer. After the war in the Central Plains has subsided, will it be better to implement it after Zhang Miao or Yuan Shu are injured?

"Well, what else?"

"Secondly, Ding Yuan will be in a dilemma. If he is ordered, he will start a war with the Central Plains clans. If he is not allowed, Dong Zhuo's backing will be to issue an edict to attack Ding Yuan. Look at Ding Yuan's current situation. Huangfu Song and Dong Zhuo are in the west, Zhang Yang and Gongsun Zan are in the south, and Han Fu are in the east. Forget the Yellow Turban Army, according to information, there are some signs of instability within the Yellow Turban Army. For the time being, the Yellow Turban Army in Jizhou has no threat, and the Helian Army in the north will not fail to take the opportunity to launch a counterattack."

Tian Feng casually combined the recently summarized information and clearly described the situation Ding Yuan was about to face to Fang Zhiwen. Fang Zhiwen nodded, turned his head and looked at the map beside him, and quickly estimated the combat power comparison between Ding Yuan and the surrounding princes. If the war starts in full swing, Ding Yuan may not lose a big loss, but the original good state that continued to rise will be disrupted, and Ding Yuan must be unwilling to accept it.

In other words, Ding Yuan was not afraid of failure, but was worried that he would not be able to develop smoothly.

Fang Zhiwen took a sip of tea, sighed comfortably, and nodded, "Well, you're surrounded by enemies! In fact, it may not be possible to treat Ding Yuan, but when the war comes, there are more people around you, and there are more different thoughts inside. In addition, the impact on the economy, if you can avoid such a passive situation, it is naturally the first choice."

"Yes, if you want to avoid this passive situation, you must block the rejection of Dong Zhuo's edict in a general way. There is only one way to do this, that is, the 'lasting edict'!"

Tian Feng's tone was very confident. Once the "Yuanhuang" move was used, whether it was true or false, the matter had risen to the level of royal family affairs. When Dong Zhuo used his identity as the emperor to suppress others, it would not be so easy to use.

What's even more terrible is that once Ding Yuan successfully repelled Dong Zhuo's emperor's edict using the will, then King Chenliu could not continue to be confused without embarrassment. As a result, two emperors appeared, and the appearance of the two emperors was beneficial to the princes. At that time, Fang Zhiwen once said that he could admit both emperors because they were brothers, and this was the family business of the Liu family. No matter who is the emperor, the world of the Liu family is always the Han country.

In fact, Fang Zhiwen's implication is that what the emperor said is beneficial to him, and he only listens to one of them. He is still playing the trick of getting along with each other. This trick is not complicated, and there are enough smart people in the world. Therefore, once Ding Yuan sacrifices the will, a large number of princes will definitely jump out to support him.

Things that are beneficial to the princes are naturally unfavorable to Dong Zhuo. Then, if Dong Zhuo had not been confused, then this should not have been done.

"If you think so, Dong Zhuo is a typical trick!" Fang Zhiwen said in confusion while pinching his chin.

"No, if it's your lord, you insist that this move was thought of by Li Ru, I don't agree. Judging from Li Ru's previous design, there has never been any loopholes, let alone such a completely failed trick?"

"Haha, if a person fails, a horse will lose his hoof!"

Tian Feng pulled the corner of his mouth and said dissatisfiedly: "It is amazing to lose your hoof to this level!"

Fang Zhiwen nodded: "So, who will this result be beneficial to? I mean those people in Chang'an?"

"Haha, I think so too. Perhaps this trick can weaken Dong Zhuo's control over the army and reduce Dong Zhuo's authority. At the same time, the focus of the struggle between Guandong and Guanzhong has shifted from military struggle to political struggle. The advantage is naturally the civil service system of Chang'an."

Fang Zhiwen and Tian Feng looked at each other and nodded as if they had some understanding.

The reply Lu Bu received was very simple, and the answer given by Fang Zhiwen was only two words - "The will of the will"!

In fact, Lu Bu thought so himself, but he was not sure about this matter, so he wrote a letter to Fang Zhiwen to ask for advice. Now it seems that Fang Zhiwen’s opinion is the same as his.

Lu Bu may not be afraid of the danger of being attacked from all sides. He is extremely confident in his force, but from a political and economic perspective, his adoptive father is right. If he can do not fight, he should not resort to war to solve the problem. War is always the most costly helpless choice.

Lu Bu hurriedly went to Ding Yuan with Fang Zhiwen's reply, and Ding Yuan happened to come back from the palace of Queen Mother Dong and King Chenliu. Obviously, how could Ding Yuan not think of a solution that Lu Bu could think of?

"Entertainment Father, have you gone to the palace to meet the Empress Dowager and His Highness Chenliu?"

Ding Yuan nodded, entered the room and sat down. After the maid gave the tea and left, Ding Yuan smiled and said, "Bongxian also thought of the will?"

"Yes, I also wrote to ask Zhiwen for his opinion. He also agreed with my idea. Now is the best time to announce the will. I think there are many people who support King Chenliu."

Ding Yuan's face was a little sad, and then he smiled in disguise and said, "Yes, there may not be many people who oppose it except Dong Zhuo and the emperor. Although I don't agree much, but when things come to this point, they have to do it. Is it a merit or a demerit to divide the great man into two?

Lu Bu straightened his waist and looked at Ding Yuan solemnly and said, "The adoptive father, he has merits and demerits, but later generations have commented on it. I just want to have a clear conscience!"

Ding Yuan looked up at Lu Bu in surprise, and a comfortable smile slowly opened on his face: "Well, well said! But please have a clear conscience! I am asking for a clear conscience!"

"Entertainment Father..."

"Oh, I'm worried about this too. I have many powerful generals under my command, but I still lack a trustworthy civil servant!"

Lu Bu couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. He used to be a little bit of a good look to civil servants. He was definitely a literati who could only talk, so he had never made friends with him well. Now, it was because his ideas were too narrow. The existence of the civil servant system fully demonstrated the importance of civil servants.

It is an indisputable fact that I lack a reliable and capable staff. Not to mention anything else, I don’t even have a military advisor to offer wine. To put it, this is really embarrassing. It seems that I have to work hard on this!

"Is there no one to recommend to the adoptive father?"

Lu Bu’s question made Ding Yuan’s old face flush. Although he was talking about Lu Bu now, why didn’t Ding Yuan himself have the same problem as Lu Bu? Ding Yuan’s subordinates also do not have an outstanding scholar!
