Because Dong Zhuo was removed from the scene ahead of schedule, many complications were averted, especially the incident where Guan Yu was appointed as the "Chief Examination Scholar."
This prevented Dong Zhuo from using the opportunity to purge the Cao Family forces within Eastern Han Academy, which would have sown hatred between Cao Cao, Liu Bei (Xiu), and the Five Tiger Generals. Furthermore, Diaochan was not expelled on framed charges of stealing a pen.
The position of "Chief Examination Scholar" consequently went to Xun Yu, one of Cao Cao's people.
