Chapter 10 Confrontation with the Prime Minister

 Wang Yun’s heart is contradictory.

As a member of the Wang family, naturally we cannot be afraid of death.

When he was young, he was also upright. Because he offended eunuchs, he was imprisoned several times and was almost executed several times.

But he is not afraid. As a minister of the emperor, he is willing to sacrifice his life for the emperor.

Today, he seemed to see his own shadow in Wang Ding.

In this way, he is the son of the Wang family.

Since Wang Ding dared to imprison Xiliang soldiers, he was naturally not afraid of Dong Zhuo's accountability.

The worst case scenario is to escape Chang'an with Diao Chan and join Liu Bei.

Forget it, Cao Cao is too insecure.

Regardless of whether Liu Bei is truly benevolent or false, at least he treats his subordinates well.

He is just making small fuss now and cannot get into the eyes of those big shots.

Wang Ding and Gao Shun are getting closer and closer, and they have a strong intention to marry Jinlan.

Whether in the Xiliang Army or the Forbidden Army, Wang Ding is now well-known.

But Wang Ding and Lu Bu never met again.

Some time ago, Dong Zhuo was assassinated by a dead soldier again.

Now Lu Bu protects Dong Zhuo every day. Even when Dong Zhuo is resting, Lu Bu still needs to stand guard outside the palace.

However, after Wang Ding reminded him, Lu Bu became even more dissatisfied with his position.

But he didn't dare to show it yet. He worked very diligently every day, and even he didn't go back to his own mansion for a long time.

Wang Yun would also go to the Taishi Mansion to see Dong Zhuo every day.

Not only Wang Yun, but other ministers also have to go to the Taishi Mansion if they have something to do. As for the palace, it is heavily guarded by Dong Zhuo's troops. No one can enter or leave without Dong Zhuo's order.

"Master Xiaowei, there are troops from Xiliang blocking the yamen gate." A petty official ran in in a panic.

Wang Dingzheng was leading people to train in the yard and asked: "How many people are there?"

The clerk said: "There are hundreds of people, all of them with fierce eyes, ready to break in at any time."

Wang Ding said: "Bring your weapons and come with me to go out and have a look."

Arriving at the yamen gate, Wang Ding shouted loudly: "Who is coming?"

"I am Yang Feng, who serves under the Prime Minister, and you are Wang Ding?" Yang Feng said.

Yang Feng? Wang Ding has never heard of it. In the Xiliang army, apart from the dead Hua Xiong, the only ones he knew were Li Jue, Guo Si, Fan Chou and Zhang Ji.

Wang Dingdao: "This is the Xiaowei Yamen in the east of Chang'an. What do you want to shoot?"

Yang Feng said: "Young captain, how dare you detain the army sergeants, let them go quickly, otherwise a certain family will take their brothers and destroy this place."

He was originally a general of the Yellow Turban Army. Later, the Yellow Turban Army was wiped out by the imperial court, and Yang Feng took his subordinates to defect to Dong Zhuo.

"The bold rebels dared to besiege the imperial government office and capture them all." Wang Ding raised the long knife in his hand.

This was specially made by the blacksmith based on his memory. It is a one-handed sword, like the Tang sword, which can be held in one hand or with both hands.

The forty men under his command also all have the same weapons.

"Kill."

Wang Ding rushed towards Yang Feng.

During this period, he trained with his soldiers every day, and also learned a set of sword techniques.

Compared with spears, sword skills are easier to master, can be mastered in a short time, and have strong lethality.

The forty people under his command obeyed Wang Ding's orders, especially following Wang Ding, who detained more than a hundred Xiliang soldiers. In their eyes, the Xiliang soldiers were nothing more than that.

Yang Feng did not expect that Wang Ding would be so decisive and impulsive.

He just came to ask for someone, didn’t he just have a tougher tone?

What conditions can you negotiate, and how can you go to war without even negotiating?

He is indeed a stupid boy with no brains.

Although Yang Feng is not very capable, he has rebelled with the Yellow Turban Army and fought on the battlefield, so his reaction is still very fast.

Seeing Wang Ding slashing at him with a knife, he immediately dodged and at the same time thrust his spear towards Wang Ding.

Perhaps Yang Feng's strength was such, or perhaps he knew Wang Ding's identity and did not dare to kill him. In Wang Ding's view, this shot was ordinary and not threatening at all.

Wang Ding struck one blow after another, and Yang Feng stepped back step by step, not daring to confront Wang Ding head-on.

The more than 100 Xiliang soldiers he brought were also killed by Zhang Yu and Chen Shan with their men and horses, and they continued to retreat.

More than a hundred people could not stop the forty people under Wang Ding's command.

The more than 100 people Yang Feng brought today were said to be the Xiliang Army, but in fact they were the same group of Yellow Turban Army soldiers who had followed him, but they had been put on the armor of the Xiliang Army.

Compared with the real Xiliang army, its combat power is still much worse.

Moreover, the real elite under Dong Zhuo are the tens of thousands of Xiliang cavalry under Niu Fu.

"Withdraw." Yang Feng saw that he couldn't defeat Wang Ding, so he turned around and ran away.

However, a dozen people were still left behind, and they were all packed into the already crowded prison.

After a few more visits, this prison really can no longer hold it.

The next day, Wang Ding followed Wang Yun to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

This is the first time he has entered the prime minister's mansion, which is much larger and more imposing than the Wang family.

The guards walked three steps to one post and five steps to one sentry, passing through the five-story courtyard. Wang Ding met the guards of no less than a hundred people.

These are just those who usually stand guard. There are many soldiers hidden in the Prime Minister's Mansion and will appear at any time.

The first time Wang Ding saw Dong Zhuo, he was a big fat man, weighing at least three hundred kilograms.

Yang Feng, who was beaten away by Wang Ding yesterday, is also here.

Yesterday's incident was more serious than before. Several of the more than 100 people brought by Yang Feng died in the melee.

Dong Zhuo looked at the young Wang Ding with a little envy in his heart. His body was too bulky. Now he misses his powerful and majestic body, which could carry an ox.

"Wang Ding, Yang Feng said that you imprisoned his soldiers innocently, is this true?" Dong Zhuo seemed to be in poor health, but he was in a high position and his aura was very well controlled.

Wang Dingdao: "The lower official was appointed as the captain of the eastern part of Chang'an because of the favor of the prime minister. After taking office, in order to repay the favor of the prime minister, he worked hard every day and did not dare to neglect. The soldiers detained by the lower official were all harassing the people.

Officials also arrest people according to the law."

Yang Feng said: "They are sergeants in the army. Even if they make mistakes, they will be dealt with according to military law. When will it be Captain Wang's turn to take action?"

Dong Zhuo looked at the two of them with a smile, as if he didn't want to favor which side.

Wang Zhizheng said righteously: "The Prime Minister promoted you to the rank of general in the army, but you did not want to repay the Prime Minister, and deliberately allowed your soldiers to rob the people in the city. You have benefited, but the Prime Minister has to bear the infamy."

Last night, Wang Yun told Wang Ding that he would come to the Prime Minister's Mansion this morning, and Wang Ding had already prepared his speech.

Yang Feng blushed at what Wang Ding said. She didn't know how to refute, so she just said: "You are talking nonsense. I am grateful for the kindness of the Prime Minister and I am willing to go through fire and water for the Prime Minister."

Wang Dingdao: "If you ask me, the assassination of the Prime Minister is also related to you."

Yang Feng was shocked and said angrily: "Stop talking nonsense."

Wang Dingdao: "If you can treat the people well, then people's hearts will return to the Prime Minister's country, and how can anyone assassinate the Prime Minister's country?"

Dong Zhuo, who was kneeling on his hands, his expression no longer calm, looked at Wang Ding in surprise.

Compared with when they were in Luoyang, the Xiliang army was somewhat restrained in Chang'an, but most of these Xiliang soldiers were Qiang and Hu people, so it was inevitable that some would rob the people.

As long as they don't go too far, Dong Zhuo will turn a blind eye. After all, if he wants to secure the position of prime minister or even replace him, the most important thing he relies on is the Xiliang army in his hands.
