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

Tie Shitou and Wang Hunu had long disliked Wang Ji.

People like Wang Ji, and officials like Wang Ji's father.

In the past, the Wang family was an untouchable force, even for figures like Tie Shitou and Wang Hunu.

They held the heavens in awe.

But when he heard what Hu Chuquan said...

Hearing about the dealings between the Wang family, the Xiongnu, and the Xianbei, the two men felt their anger rising.

"You..." Wang Jishou pointed his sword at Tie Shitou and Wang Hunu, who were walking towards them: "You...you are being insolent!"

"Stop! Take one more step and I'll..."

"Fuck your mother!"

Tie Shitou kicked Wang Ji in the waist and cursed, "What if you take one step forward?"

"You bastard, you traitor! I'll have your Master Liu take good care of you later, you bastard."

"Pooh!"

Wang Ji, lying on the ground, wanted to speak, but was so frightened by the large foot that Tie Shitou raised that he swallowed his words.

Duan Yu bypassed Wang Ji and headed straight for the study.

No sooner had Duan Yu entered the study than Wang Ji, bound like a dumpling, was thrown in by Tie Shitouyu and Wang Hunu.

Jia Xu stood behind Duan Yu, with more than a dozen guards standing in front of the study door.

The entire palace was completely surrounded by Duan Yu, inside and out.

Duan Yu, with his back to Wang Ji, scanned the study with his eyes.

"Search!" Duan Yu ordered. "Search the area around the study."

Before long, the study was turned upside down.

The hidden compartment in the study was also found.

A large number of secret letters were found from both sides of the hidden compartment.

When the secret letter was thrown in front of Wang Ji, Wang Ji was already ashen-faced.

Jia Xu organized the secret letters on his desk, classifying them one by one.

These were letters sent by Wang Rou or Wang Ji, as well as letters from the Xiongnu and Xianbei.

Furthermore, with Huchuquan's confession, the fact that Wang Rou, the Protector of the Xiongnu and the Prefect of Yanmen Commandery, was involved in treason and collusion with the enemy is essentially irrefutable.

Following this, Duan Yu ordered the Wang Mansion to be sealed off, prohibiting anyone from entering or leaving. He then dispatched Li Jue, Guo Si, Wang Fang, and Li Meng to leave from the west of Jinyang City and head to the various manors owned by the Wang family outside Jinyang City.

...........

After Duan Yu's series of actions...

This made the night in Jinyang City unusually noisy.

Prefect Liu Wei, Dong Zhuo, and the major clans of Jinyang City received the news immediately.

Upon receiving news that Duan Yu had led his troops into the city, Liu Wei went straight to the Prince's residence and immediately sent someone to inform Dong Zhuo.

.........

As night fell, Dong Zhuo had just lain down with his concubine, ready to rest, when a maid knocked on the door.

Upon learning that Li Ru had come with important business, Dong Zhuo disregarded the concubine who was acting coquettishly on the bed. He put on a black cloak, his belly protruding, and went to the council hall in the central courtyard.

Accompanied by two maids, Dong Zhuo entered the council hall and saw Li Ru pacing anxiously inside.

"When did Wenyou become so distressed?" Dong Zhuo immediately asked Li Ru.

Li Ru, who was in the hall, looked up, his expression extremely unpleasant.

"My lord, something terrible has happened...something terrible has occurred!"

"This is bad news."

"what?"

Dong Zhuo was immediately taken aback.

Li Ru had followed him for many years and had experienced many things, both big and small.

The fact that Li Ru was so alarmed meant that Dong Zhuo knew without a doubt that something of immense importance must have happened.

Therefore, Dong Zhuo quickened his pace.

"Wenyou, don't panic. Tell me in detail what happened."

Dong Zhuo was no stranger to great storms, and he knew that the more serious the situation, the more calm he needed to be.

But clearly, Li Ru couldn't calm down.

"My lord, it is...it is Ziyi."

Li Ru recounted to Dong Zhuo everything that had happened at the market that afternoon.

Dong Zhuo was somewhat surprised upon hearing this, but he did not react much.

In the past, he would have been somewhat wary of the Wang family of Jinyang.

But the situation is clearly different now than before.

Yuan Wei personally transferred him to Hedong Commandery and entrusted him with important responsibilities.

His current backer is the Yuan family of Runan.

He no longer feared the Wang family of Jinyang as much as before.

But what Li Ru said next completely shocked Dong Zhuo.

"My lord, if Ziyi really only arrested a few of Wang's guests, it's nothing serious."

"But after nightfall, Ziyi led five hundred Liangzhou soldiers from the western camp directly into the city and surrounded the Prince's Palace."

"Just now, when Liu Zijian delivered the message, Ziyi had already led his troops to break through the Prince's Mansion!" Li Ru's eyes widened.

"what!"

Dong Zhuo was so shocked that he immediately stood up from his seat.

"What did you say?"

"You said Ziyi led troops to surround the Prince's Mansion, and even broke through it?" Dong Zhuo asked incredulously.

Li Ru nodded quickly.

Dong Zhuo was stunned.

this.....

this.....

Is his son-in-law crazy?

Leading troops to trespass into a prefect's residence without a legitimate reason is a capital offense punishable by beheading.

Even if he has Yuan Wei as his current backer, no matter who he has now, he can't protect Duan Yu.

The Wang family of Jinyang were leading figures among the scholars of Taiyuan and even the entire Bingzhou region.

Duan Yu's actions offended not only the Wang family of Jinyang, but also the entire Taiyuan gentry and the entire Bingzhou gentry.

Wang's fellow villagers and cronies would not tolerate such a person's existence.

No!

"Someone, prepare the horses immediately! I need to go see what this kid is up to."

"Is he trying to cause a major upheaval?!" Dong Zhuo said anxiously.

"Wait, my lord!" Li Ru quickly reached out to stop Dong Zhuo, saying, "My lord, it is not appropriate for you to show yourself at this time."

"If our lord were to intervene at this time, and the matter were to become too serious, we fear that our lord would be implicated as well."

Dong Zhuo said anxiously, "If this brat gets into trouble, how can I not care?"

Li Ru shook his head and said, "My lord, you are mistaken. If my lord can stay out of it, then if Ziyi really suffers some mishap, my lord can find a solution from the outside."

"If our lord is implicated as well, who will rescue him and Ziyi?"

Dong Zhuo suddenly realized what Li Ru meant.

"My lord, please do not be anxious."

"How about this, I'll go first," Li Ru said. "I'll go find Ziyi and see what he's up to."

"Then it is not too late for the lord to make a decision."

Dong Zhuo took a deep breath to calm himself down and nodded.

"That's all we can do."

"Wenyou, go quickly and find out exactly what this brat is up to."

"if......"

"If it's really just because of personal grudges, then pass on my message: have this brat leave Jinyang tonight and take Yi'er back to Liangzhou with him."

Li Ru nodded: "Rest assured, my lord, I will go right away."

..........

Meanwhile, at the Prince's Mansion in the west of the city.

This palace was not Wang Rou's residence.

It was Wang Yun's residence.

"Young master, young master, good news! Good news!"

In the main hall of the front yard, Wang Gai was in a good mood, drinking wine.

Since Chen Ye was imprisoned, all the bandits of Longshan were wiped out, and even Prefect Liu Wei was defeated by Dong Zhuo and Duan Yu, Wang Gai has stayed at home and never went out.

Not only did they lose face in front of everyone, but they also...

The main thing is that Wang Gai is scared.

Upon hearing that Duan Yu had slaughtered more than 300 bandits from Longshan and placed their heads outside Jinyang City, Wang Gai knew this was a warning from Duan Yu.

Such a big incident was caused by a songstress.

Magistrate Chen Ye was imprisoned for this, so Wang Gai couldn't help but be afraid.

He thought of writing to his father in Luoyang.

But the thought that all these things had happened because of a singer and dancer made him realize that his father would surely scold him if he found out.

It might even require him to go to Luoyang.

If I really go to Luoyang, I will lose my freedom.

Therefore, after much deliberation, Wang Gai still felt that he could not tell his father about this matter.

The ridicule from his companions, and Duan Yu's promotion to county magistrate of Jinyang after the great victory, made Wang Gai feel ashamed.

So, he simply stayed indoors and didn't go out.

He refused to believe that Duan Yu would actually dare to break into their mansion.

As for why I'm in a good mood...

That's because in the morning, Wang Gai learned that Duan Yu had arrested Wang Ji's guests in the West Market.

A few days ago, Wang Ji mocked him behind his back, and this matter naturally reached his ears.

But nothing happened; he dared not go out, fearing he might actually run into Duan Yu on the road.

After all, Jinyang City is not very big.

I heard that Duan Yu arrested Wang Ji's guests and even made a public statement in the West Market that Wang Ji had no face in his presence. He also cut off the finger of Wang Ji's steward.

Wang Gai was very pleased to hear this.

Wang Ji was pleased that Duan Yu had also suffered a setback.

I'm so glad that Duan Yu has actually provoked Wang Ji.

Wang Ji's father, Wang Rou, was not his father, Wang Yunyuan, who lived in Luoyang.

Wang Ji's father lived in the nearby Yanmen County and served as its governor, holding the title of Protector of the Xiongnu.

Duan Yu has provoked Wang Ji, which will inevitably trigger Wang Ji's revenge.

Seeing Wang Ji suffer a setback, and seeing Duan Yu about to be forgotten and punished.

Just thinking about Wang Gai makes me happy.

Meanwhile, his past will be overshadowed by the conflict between Wang Ji and Duan Yu and gradually forgotten.

All three of these are good things.

How could Wang Gai not be happy?

As Wang Gai drank the wine poured by the maid, he found it exceptionally sweet.

Just as Wang Gai was enjoying his drink, the butler strode in from outside.

"Young master, this is wonderful news, wonderful news!" the steward said with a smile.

Wang Gai raised his head, raising an eyebrow: "What is it?"

The steward said excitedly, "Young master, just now, Duan Yu dispatched troops from the western camp into the city and surrounded Wang Ji's residence."

"According to the servants, Duan Yu led his troops to force his way into Wang Ji's residence and killed people!"

"What?"

Wang Gai immediately froze on the spot.

Did Duan Yu lead his troops to storm Wang Ji's residence?

He even killed someone?

this......

Has Duan Yu gone mad?

They trespassed into the prefect's residence, surrounded it with troops, and even dared to kill someone?

this.....

This guy is incredibly audacious!

While feeling a bit scared, Wang Gai also felt a strange excitement.

If Duan Yu really did lead troops to surround the Prince's Mansion and force his way into the Prefect's Residence to commit murder, and if this is confirmed, it would be a capital offense.

Not to mention Duan Yu, even Dong Zhuo will be implicated.

"Is this really true?" Wang Gai asked, somewhat incredulous.

The steward nodded repeatedly: "Reporting to the young master, it is absolutely true. The servants saw it. Duan Yu is still at Wang Ji's residence and has not left yet."

Wang Gai's eyes darted around.

He then smiled and said "good" three times in a row.

"When the sky is arrogant, rain is sure to follow; when people are arrogant, disaster is sure to follow."

"Duan Yu and Dong Zhuo are in deep trouble!"

"Great!"

"Quickly, send someone to investigate and report back," Wang Gai said excitedly.

After receiving the order, the butler turned to leave.

"Wait a minute," Wang Gai said, rubbing his hands together. "Spread this news immediately, so that the Guo and Cui families know about it."

Wang Gai chuckled.

He can already guess the sensation this matter will cause tomorrow without even thinking.

If Duan Yu dares to raid Wang Ji's mansion today, he'll dare to break down the Guo family's gate tomorrow, and he'll dare to set fire to the Cui family's ancestral home the day after.

Are you just going to stand by and watch?

It's time to let Duan Yu know what it means to be pushed around when you're down.

The butler nodded upon hearing this.

Wang Gai then waved his hand, still seemingly unsatisfied, and sat down again.

After taking his seat, Wang Gai immediately felt great: "Someone, call a few dancers. This young master is going to get very drunk tonight."

..........

Outside Jinyang City.

West camp.

Niu Fu sat alone in the tent, his thick stubble covering almost half of his face, and he looked quite haggard.

There were several empty wine jars in front of them.

Since the incident at Longshan, Niu Fu has not left the West Camp.

He was kept confined to the western camp by Dong Zhuo's orders.

Niu Fu couldn't understand it.

He couldn't understand why, despite his years of hard work, he hadn't won Dong Yi's favor, while Duan Yu had managed to steal her heart in just a few days.

Yesterday, Dong Yi and Duan Yu got married, and Niu Fu got drunk and cried loudly.

Niu Fu was unwilling to accept that the woman he loved had been taken away by someone else.

So, while drunk, he summoned a diviner and had the diviner perform a curse on Duan Yu.

"General, general!"

Just as Niu Fu was drinking heartily from the wine jar, a sound came from outside the door.

Immediately afterwards, a burly young man with the appearance of a non-Han Chinese rushed into the tent.

Niu Fu frowned and angrily shouted, "Who let you in? Get out!"

The young Hu man was taken aback, but he did not leave the tent. Instead, he lowered his head and said, "General, you just ordered me to investigate where Duan Yu led his troops. I found out and came to report back to you."

Niu Fu felt annoyed upon hearing the name Duan Yu.

"Speak," Niu Fu said nonchalantly, waving his hand.

The young Hu man immediately raised his head excitedly and said, "General, after Duan Yu led Li Jue and Guo Si of the Western Camp out of the camp, they entered Jinyang through the west gate."

"My subordinates sent men to follow them, and that's when they found out that they were actually heading to the residence of Wang Rou of Jinyang, and had even surrounded it."

"What?"

Niu Fu was so surprised that he almost dropped the wine jar in his hand.

"You're saying Duan Yu led his troops to surround the residence of Wang Rou, the governor of Yanmen County?" Niu Fu said in disbelief.

Hu Chier nodded repeatedly: "It's absolutely true, General. Duan Yu not only surrounded Wang Rou's residence, but also led his troops to attack it and killed people."

They led troops to surround Wang Rou's residence.

They even broke through and killed people!

this.....

Duan Yu has gone mad!

but.....

Good for you to be crazy, good for you to be crazy!

"Okay, okay, great!"

Niu Fu was instantly sober.

"Duan Yu is courting death, he's practically courting death."

Taking a deep breath, Niu Fu suddenly felt full of hope.

If Duan Yu were to die.

That......

Does that mean Dong Yi is still his?

"Go, go quickly, bring the diviner to me!"

"I'm going to do a proper divination!" Niu Fu said excitedly.
