Three Kingdoms: Ten Times Speed, Diao Chan Says I'm Too Fast

Just for a moment.

Tie Shitou then returned to Duan Yu with two subordinates carrying several bloody human heads.

"My Lord".

Tie Shitou handed over several identity plaques to Duan Yu.

Duan Yu reached out and took it, then glanced at it. It clearly stated that it was for the city's guards.

The troops in Luoyang were roughly divided into three groups.

The Northern Army, the Imperial Guards, and the city's defensive troops.

They were respectively controlled by the Commandant of the Imperial Guard, the Commander of the Imperial Guard, and the Five Schools of the Northern Army.

The city's defensive troops were under the command of the Imperial Guard.

Duan Yu glanced at the identification badge and knew that the men guarding his father-in-law were subordinates of the Imperial Guard.

Duan Yu tossed the identity plaque into the fire beside him and continued to apply medicine to Dong Zhuo's injured and somewhat rotten leg with his head down.

Gently scrape away the rotten flesh on your leg with a knife, then apply the wound medicine synthesized by the system.

The terms "Surgical Master" and "Trauma Pharmacist" are extremely helpful in treating external injuries.

Dong Zhuo sat by the fire, looking at Duan Yu with an unchanged expression.

"Father, I'm so sorry to have made you suffer," Duan Yu said guiltily.

Although in official history, Dong Zhuo was sentenced to a reduced death sentence because he failed to defeat the enemy in the Battle of Xiaquyang, and was even imprisoned in Luoyang prison for nearly five months before being released due to a general amnesty.

But that wasn't because of him.

"Ha ha!"

Dong Zhuo laughed heartily and said, "A few minor injuries are nothing."

"Back in Liangzhou, the injuries I sustained were much more severe than they are now."

“If it weren’t for my son, I would still be locked up in a death row. Home is much more comfortable than that death row. At least I have such a big yard to move around in.”

"That death row cell was dark and damp; you couldn't see the sun all day long."

“If it weren’t for my son’s military achievements, I would probably still be imprisoned in a death row cell.”

Even so, Duan Yu still felt extremely guilty.

Dong Zhuo was imprisoned in order to protect himself from being implicated.

That's enough.

"who is it!"

After Duan Yu finished applying the medicine to Dong Zhuo, he looked at Dong Zhuo and asked, "Who tortured my father like this?"

"Why....."

Dong Zhuo sighed and shook his head, saying, "My son's filial piety is enough; there's no need to pursue this matter so further."

"Now my son is a general in the court and the governor of Liangzhou. He must not do something as impulsive as before and ruin his future."

"A few minor injuries, nothing to worry about."

Duan Yu shook his head, his eyes blazing with fury, and said, "Father, giving in will only lead to them becoming more aggressive. The fact that they dared to humiliate you like this today shows that they have never taken us seriously."

“Even if Father doesn’t say anything, I can still find out who this person is!”

Duan Yu's gaze was intense.

This revenge must be taken.

He wanted to use this method to tell the world, to tell everyone in the world, that no one can touch Duan Yu's people!

Anyone who dares to make a move, or even just has the thought of doing so, will pay the price!

“It’s Wei Ban from the Wei clan of Hedong,” Dong Zhuo said with a sigh.

Ok?

Duan Yu was taken aback.

He thought it would be the Yuan family or the Yang family.

The Wei clan of Hedong?

He had never heard of the name Wei Ban, but he had heard of the Wei family of Hedong.

The Wei clan of Hedong originated from the lineage of Wei Qing, and the most famous among them should be Wei Zhongdao, the husband of Cai Yan (Cai Wenji), who is often talked about.

In addition, there are Wei clan members recorded in historical books, such as Wei Ji, Wei Guan, and Wei Gu.

The Wei family had lived in Anyi for generations, which was the seat of Hedong Commandery.

His father-in-law, Dong Zhuo, was the governor of Hedong Commandery, so he naturally had to deal with the powerful clans in Hedong.

The Sili Commandery was filled with powerful and influential families.

Among them, the Wei clan of Hedong and the Fan clan of Hedong are said to be prominent families in Hedong.

In addition, there were Confucian scholars such as the Liu, Wang, and Yin families who had a family tradition of compiling the Book of Documents, the Analects, and the Gongyang Commentary, as well as the Heng family of Pinglu County, the Xiangli family of Pingyang, and the Jia family of Pingyang, who were hereditary officials with a salary of two thousand shi (a unit of grain).

The powerful and influential were numerous, numbering in the thousands.

The Wei and Fan clans of Hedong were almost the leading clans in Hedong.

Furthermore, the Wei family resided in Anyi, the capital of Hedong Commandery, which was the seat of their father-in-law, Dong Zhuo, so their interactions must have been numerous.

“Last year, when I first took office as the governor of Hedong, I established my authority in Anyi and ordered the execution of a member of the Wei clan of Hedong who had committed adultery. This led to a gathering of people.”

"And that guard is now serving as a lieutenant under the Commander of the Imperial Guard."

At this point in Dong Zhuo's speech, Duan Yu understood completely.

The Commander of the Imperial Guards was in charge of maintaining order in the capital, while the Vice Commandant of the Capital was an official under the Commander of the Imperial Guards.

No wonder those guards outside were city defense troops.

That makes sense.

When his father-in-law served as the governor of Hedong Commandery, he had a falling out with the Wei family of Hedong.

Given the strong foundation of the Wei clan in Hedong, they looked down on Dong Zhuo.

After all, the Wei clan of Hedong came from the lineage of Wei Qing, while Dong Zhuo's background was quite different.

He was just a powerful local strongman in Liangzhou.

The Wei clan of Hedong never expected that Dong Zhuo would establish his authority over them.

These aristocratic families, whose lineage had lasted for hundreds of years, wielded more power in the region than the emperor, and a promiscuous woman was of no consequence to them.

Let alone promiscuous women, even murder and arson are not considered major issues.

This time, his father-in-law was brought to Luoyang in a prison cart and sentenced to a reduced death sentence, ending up in a death row cell.

This is the perfect time to kick someone when they're down.

He said that Liu Hong was not stupid; although he had imprisoned his father-in-law, he would never order him to be tortured.

It's true that emperors use both kindness and severity to govern their subjects, but to use torture on Dong Zhuo would be truly foolish.

After all, he was still leading troops in battle.

It's not hard to see this from Liu Hong's order to release his father-in-law from death row.

As for his father-in-law being trapped in this mansion, that has nothing to do with Liu Hong.

Liu Hong, being inside the palace walls, could neither see nor hear any of this.

It was nothing more than that Wei Ban doing his own thing.

The Commander of the Imperial Guards was in charge of maintaining order in the capital, and the Vice Commandant, who was also an official under the Commander of the Imperial Guards, had the right to mobilize the city's garrison troops.

It's perfectly reasonable to keep his father-in-law trapped here to maintain order.

Duan Yu didn't need to guess to know what Wei Ban was thinking.

Even if he came to Luoyang and saw Dong Zhuo like this, even if he complained to the emperor, Wei Ban would say that this was within the normal range.

Anyway, Dong Zhuo didn't die.

but......

A fierce glint flashed in Duan Yu's eyes.

Then he slowly stood up.

To establish authority.

He certainly can.

"Stone, Tiger Slave, you two stay here and take good care of my father. Also, clean up the mansion."

"It seems I'll have to stay in Luoyang for a couple more days."

Hearing Duan Yusen's cold tone, Dong Zhuo immediately stood up anxiously and said, "Ziyi, you mustn't be reckless."

Duan Yu looked at Dong Zhuo and shook his head, saying, "Father, don't worry. They're just a few clowns. If we don't teach them a lesson, do they really think we're someone they can manipulate at will?"
