Han Dynasty Achievements

Chapter 84 Acting on Behalf of the King

Dong Zhuo stared in shock, hating Wang Yun to death. After a long while, he said with a hint of hesitation, "To be honest with you, my lord, I still have a few letters from Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and me. They contain many outrageous words. I didn't take them seriously at first, but now I think they are all acts of treason..."

'Traitor!'

Wang Yun knew very well that Dong Zhuo was going to accuse the Yuan family in order to get away.

But he could not care about Dong Zhuo for the time being, and immediately said: "Mr. Dong, please send someone to get it, and we will go to the palace together!"

Dong Zhuo turned and walked towards the city gate, spoke a few words to his guards, and then turned back to Wang Yun. He said frankly with a nervous look on his face: "My Lord, I never thought that the Yuan family would have such a wolfish ambition and almost got into trouble."

Wang Yun nodded, and was thinking in his mind how to get rid of Dong Zhuo after dealing with the Yuan family!

Dong Zhuo acted humble and bowed slightly, but what he was thinking about in his heart was how to kill Wang Yun and then escape from Luoyang.

Not long after, Dong Zhuo got the letters and walked and talked with Wang Yun as they went. He also brought Yang Biao from the Secretariat with him, and walked and talked with him as they went towards Jingfu Palace.

At this moment, Liu Bian had just come out of the bedroom, feeling refreshed, and his whole state was different.

Tang Ji sent him out with her hair loose, her pretty face was like a peach blossom, so red that it seemed like tears were about to burst out.

Pan Yin and Zuo Li were waiting not far outside the door, and when they saw Liu Bian come out, they immediately came over to greet him.

Liu Bian glanced at the two of them, stretched out his hand to wipe his wet hair, and said, "Grand Chamberlain, the title of the harem, A-choo A-choo A-choo..."

Before he could finish his words, he sneezed four or five times in a row.

Tang Ji gently stroked Liu Bian's back, her pretty face anxious, and whispered, "Your Majesty, are you okay?"

Liu Bian wiped his nose, feeling his face burning, and said with a smile: "At this time of year, the weather is fluctuating between hot and cold. It's normal to feel a little cold after staying up late and discussing with each other. Just ask the doctor to make some medicine."

Tang Ji's face suddenly turned red, and her eyes were full of charm.

Pan Yin and Zuo Li saw Liu Bian flirting with Tang Ji and lowered their heads as if they saw nothing.

Seeing how charming she was, Liu Bian couldn't help but pinch her face, then turned around and went to the study with a smile.

After walking a few steps, he started coughing violently again.

Pan Yin was startled and said hurriedly, "Your Majesty, I will go and call the doctor."

Liu Bian coughed for a while and felt his throat was itchy and his head was hot, but he was still very sober. He went to the study, drank a sip of tea, suppressed his thirst, and listened to Zuo Li's report.

After Zuo Li finished speaking, Liu Bian was somewhat absent-minded and asked, "Children's rhyme? Interesting. Who wrote it?"

Zuo Li bowed and said, "I haven't found out anything. It seems to have suddenly appeared last night."

Liu Bian laughed, his eyes twinkled, and said, "Then forget about it. Wang Yun... came with Dong Zhuo? That's even more interesting."

Zuo Li lowered his head, looked at Liu Bian, and said, "Your Majesty, do you need me to..."

Liu Bian waved his hands violently, suppressing the urge to cough. His eyes were unusually cold as he said, "You don't need to intervene in this matter. Just pick up the pieces and fill in the gaps. Pass the word out that I am ill and will not see anyone."

Zuo Li was stunned. Who would he see at this time?

He didn't dare to say anything more, and said, "Yes. I'll go right away."

"and many more!"

Liu Bian narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Pass the order, Dong Zhuo, record the affairs of the Shangshu."

Zuo Li was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

Your Majesty, haven't you always been afraid of Dong Zhuo? Shouldn't you kill him together? Why did you give him the title of Shangshu?

Zuo Li didn't dare to say more, and Yingsheng went out.

As soon as Zuo Li left, Liu Bian started coughing violently. He drank a big sip of water and then suppressed the cough.

Feeling tears and snot coming out, Liu Bian sighed softly and said to himself: "Wine and sex are harmful to the body, fortunately I don't like wine..."

Outside Gyeongbokgung Palace.

Yang Biao, Wang Yun and Dong Zhuo were waiting with different expressions.

Yang Biao frowned, with beads of sweat on his fat face.

He knew better than anyone that the Yanzhou incident had touched the bottom line of the palace, and the Yuan family was courting their own destruction!

Wang Yun was the calmest, indifferent and motionless, and usually kept silent.

Dong Zhuo bent his body, lowered his head, and looked serious, and he was just about to carve the words "loyalty and integrity" on his face.

Before the three of them had to wait for long, Pan Yin came out of the door, looked at the three of them, straightened his back, and said in a sharp voice, "Your Majesty has decreed that, starting today, Grand Commandant Dong Zhuo will take over the duties of the Minister of the Secretariat."

Dong Zhuo opened his eyes slightly, and then looked up in surprise.

Yang Biao and Wang Yun were equally shocked and surprised by Liu Bian's decision.

At this time, why was Dong Zhuo, who had a mysterious relationship with the Yuan family, promoted to the position of Shangshu?

Before they could react, Pan Yin said, "Your Majesty is ill. All court affairs shall be discussed by the Secretariat. I decree this."

After he finished speaking, he turned back, leaving the three of them staring at each other.

Yang Biao and Wang Yun couldn't understand what this meant in the palace.

Dong Zhuo was still stunned, and he really didn't understand. He raised his hand to Wang Yun and Yang Biao, asking for advice, and said, "Mr. Yang, Mr. Wang..."

Yang Biao wiped the sweat off his head and suddenly said with a smile: "Congratulations, Mr. Dong, for being promoted to the rank of minister."

Dong Zhuo looked at him, his face hesitant and uncertain, with a hint of panic and helplessness.

Wang Yun lowered his head slightly, as if thinking.

He was extremely angry with these two people in his heart. It was already such a late hour, and as ministers of the court, they were so perfunctory and incompetent!

After just a moment, he raised his head and said solemnly: "You two, your Majesty is ill, and now the matter of the Yuan family is imminent, there must be a rule!"

Yang Biao had no time to hide, so he was unwilling to get involved. He said quickly, "It's just that this matter is of great importance. Without the emperor's order, how can we take the initiative to do it?"

Dong Zhuo has not yet recovered from the "Recording of Shangshu Affairs". He knows that this must be something special, but he cannot guess the intention.

Seeing Yang Biao evading responsibility, he immediately said in all seriousness, "Mr. Yang is right. The Yuan family has three dukes in four generations. Yuan Wei is also the recorder of the Shangshu. We cannot dispose of him arbitrarily."

Wang Yun suddenly felt blessed. He stared at Yang Biao and said, "Although Doctor Yang has divorced his wife, the Yang family and the Yuan family have been married for decades. It's not easy to get away with just divorcing her, right?"

Yang Biao's face froze, and he forced a smile and said, "Prince, this is the matter of the Yuan family. My Yang family really has never been involved in it at all..."

Wang Yun ignored him and turned to Dong Zhuo, saying, "General Dong, the Yuan family has been promoting him in recent years. It was Yuan Wei who personally went to Bingzhou to invite General Dong to the capital. Now General Dong will not say that he has nothing to do with the Yuan family, right?"

Dong Zhuo's heart was filled with murderous intent, and he looked troubled. He asked, "My Lord, then, what shall we do?"

Wang Yun snorted coldly and said resolutely: "Ministers of the court are prime ministers. If they shrink back and hesitate in the face of things, they will fail the emperor's grace and betray the people! Of course, they should eliminate the thieves for the country, relieve the worries of the emperor, and establish great things!"

The corner of Yang Biao's eyes twitched fiercely. Is this Wang Yun going to act on behalf of the king?

are you crazy? !

Dong Zhuo stared at Wang Yun with a stern face, his heart beating fast. This man is so bold!

After Wang Yun finished speaking, he saw that the two men were silent, so he raised his hands and bowed, saying, "You two, please make the decision!"

Yang Biao kept wiping the cold sweat from his head and said, "Well, why don't we go back to the Shangshutai first and make a long-term plan..."

Having said that, Yang Biao left quickly.

As soon as Dong Zhuo saw it, he said, "Mr. Yang is right. Lord, let's go to the Secretariat to discuss it."

Before he finished speaking, he shouted to Yang Biao and chased after him.
