Dong Zhuo finally took his family and concubine and moved into the newly built shed.
He played mahjong with his concubine every day. Li Ru tried to dissuade him several times, but in the end, he was dragged into playing chess with Dong Zhuo.
Wang Yun had already contacted Lu Bu, but he didn't say it directly, but gave subtle hints.
However, there was no Diao Chan to create a wedge between them, and Dong Zhuo did not threaten to kill Lu Bu because of this.
Even though Lu Bu is dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo now, he is not yet ready to kill Dong Zhuo.
We still need an inducement to make Lu Bu make up his mind.
Wang Ding is still very patient.
If there is no chance, then just wait.
He spends most of his day training soldiers.
Every now and then, he would make a small gadget and give it to Dong Zhuo to show his loyalty.
What about werewolf killing, script killing, with a few changes, Dong Zhuo can play it all day long.
Even the ambitious Liu Bei was almost addicted to the gentle countryside, let alone Dong Zhuo who was now satisfied and started to enjoy it.
Now Dong Zhuo spends his days enjoying himself in the shed, just like the Ling Emperor back then.
It's just that he still holds hundreds of thousands of Xiliang troops in his hands, so those who are dissatisfied with him dare not act rashly.
All the ministers who were full of passion and were not afraid of death had already been slaughtered by Dong Zhuo.
Those who are left now, even if they have not taken refuge with Dong Zhuo like Wang Yun, have temporarily lowered their heads and will not go against Dong Zhuo.
Wang Ding would occasionally visit Lu Bu.
He did not discuss Dong Zhuo's affairs with Lu Bu for the time being, but only came to ask Lu Bu for martial arts advice.
Lu Bu used Fang Tian's painted halberd, but he was equally proficient with the sword, and he was also a master of marksmanship.
Lu Bu did not reject Wang Ding, he was also afraid that Wang Ding would surpass him.
Wang Ding is already very old. Even if he has good talent, it is still a bit late to start learning martial arts now.
In Lu Bu's view, it would be difficult for Wang Ding to become the top general.
Unless he becomes old and frail, even if Wang Ding practices for ten years, he will still not be his opponent.
Wang Ding also understands that he only wants to have a strong body when practicing martial arts, not to be able to fight with top generals, but to be able to fight with second- and third-rate generals for more than ten rounds.
He doesn't want his hands to be so weak that any soldier on the battlefield can take off his head.
Now that Lu Bu, a super master, is taking classes, Wang Ding can certainly take advantage of every lesson.
Chang'an City is very peaceful now.
Without Dong Zhuo in the city, whether it was the officials of the imperial court or the people in the city, life was much easier than before as if the knife hanging above their heads had been taken away.
On this day, after Wang Ding finished practicing martial arts with Lu Bu, he suddenly said: "The Prime Minister went to Xiwu, why didn't he ask the general to follow him?"
Lu Bu said: "The Prime Minister is in Xiwu, and no one can assassinate him. The security problem has been solved, so there is no need for Bu to follow him."
Wang Dingdao: "Since there is no need for the general's protection, why not give the general the power to lead the troops so that the general's martial arts can be used?"
Lu Bu fell silent.
Dong Zhuo went to Yiwu without him. Although Lu Bu was a Zhonglang general, he had no soldiers and no real power.
Every day I drink wine in my house to soothe my sorrows.
Even the old troops like Wei Xuhoucheng had been transferred away by Dong Zhuo before, and now they are not under the command of Lu Bu.
Wang Dingdao: "I really feel it's unfair for the general. Doesn't the Prime Minister know that the general's ability is a hundred times a thousand times better than that of Hu Zhen? How can Hu Zhen lead an army of 50,000 Xiliang troops?"
Lu Bu clenched his fists, veins appeared on his forehead.
As early as when he was dealing with the eighteen princes at Hulao Pass, Lu Bu had conflicts with Hu Zhen.
Wang Dingdao: "General, have you ever thought about establishing your own business?"
Lu Bu said: "Ji An is joking."
Wang Dingdao: "These days, thanks to the general's advice, I admire the general's martial arts. I even heard that when I was in Bingzhou, Shi Chang led his troops out of the pass, and the Huns who were killed changed their color when they heard the general's name, and they did not dare to go south to plunder.
."
Lu Bu said: "It is a thing of the past, there is no need to mention it again."
He said this, but Lu Bu himself was already thinking about the past.
At that time, he was very happy every day.
When did he start feeling depressed?
It seems to be when he was promoted to chief bookkeeper by Ding Yuan.
Yes, it was that time. Originally, he was grateful to Ding Yuan for his kindness, but after becoming Ding Yuan's chief clerk, he was unable to make any military exploits for many years, and he began to feel dissatisfied.
Finally, under the temptation of Dong Zhuo, Ding Yuan was killed.
But he doesn't seem to be much better now than when he followed Ding Yuan.
Do you regret it?
It seems a little bit.
Wang Ding didn't know that at this moment, Lu Bu had already thought about the past half of his life.
"I have something I don't know whether to say or not." Wang Ding said.
Lu Bu came to his senses and said, "Come and listen."
Wang Dingdao: "I think the Prime Minister is getting old. It's time for the general to find his own way out."
Lu Bu's expression changed and he said, "Do you want the Wang family to be confiscated and exterminated?"
Wang Ding said: "If the general is willing, I am willing to fully support it. If the general does not want to, just pretend that I have not been here today. I, Wang Ding, have misjudged the person."
"I thought that the general was a hero of the world, but I didn't expect that the general would be like Hu Zhen, who would be willing to live under others for a long time."
"A real man living in heaven and earth should move forward bravely and overcome all obstacles. Even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, he should dare to leap forward to help the world and leave his name in history."
"General, Wang must retire."
Wang Ding clasped his fists and said goodbye.
He just wanted to give it a try today, to provoke Lu Bu and push him forward.
With a character like Lu Bu's, if no one pushed him from behind, he wouldn't even know it would be the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Horse before he could make his own decision.
He is hesitant to do things and his ears are soft.
First he was persuaded by Li Su to kill Ding Yuan, and then he was persuaded by Wang Yun to rebel and kill Dong Zhuo.
Being able to occupy Xuzhou in the future is also thanks to Chen Gong’s advice.
Yuan Shu wanted to marry her, so he agreed at first, but as soon as Chen Deng said it, he immediately regretted it.
Whether it was ungratefulness or betrayal, when Lu Bu made these decisions, he was actually deceived by others.
I always feel that this person is right and that person is right, so I keep saying it over and over again, but I don’t have my own opinion.
All my brains are used on the battlefield.
Seeing Wang Ding leaving, Lu Bu did not stop him.
He is very confused now.
I feel unwilling to do so, but I am also afraid.
Although Lu Bu has great martial arts throughout his life and is the most powerful general in the world, he is also greedy for life and afraid of death. He is far from comparable to the second brother Guan.
After Wang Ding returned, he told Wang Yun again.
Let Wang Yun have more contact with Lu Bu in the past few days to see what Lu Bu means.
Wang Yundao: "This matter should not be rushed too hastily."
Wang Yun is just testing a little these days and doesn't dare to be as straightforward as Wang Ding.
Lu Bu is still Dong Zhuo's adopted son after all.
One careless move and all your efforts will be wasted.
Wang Yun is very careful, but Wang Ding is not afraid.
Dong Zhuo's trust in him now cannot be shaken by Lu Bu with just a few words.
If he really wanted to confront Dong Zhuo, Wang Ding could bite him back.
