This is also an important reason why Liu Bei and Chen Xi can see Fei Yi here now: with the aristocratic families moving north, many of them have tossed their children to relatively reliable teachers in Ye City as students. If you think a bit deeper, this is actually a kind of compromise.
After all, Liu Bei's power is great, to the point that Liu Bei himself looks down on this "hostage-style" approach, but when the major aristocratic families expressed their willingness to accept Liu Bei's control, whether Liu Bei cared or not, they all made sure to do their own part properly.
"Fei Wenwei, huh, he's here too?" Chen Xi asked with a puzzled look.
"He's Chief Shang's disciple. His teacher is here; how could he not be here?" Huang Chengyan said casually. "Speaking of which, among these people there are actually some more suited to be generals, but for now these people still need to spend some time studying book knowledge."
