Yang Ding's wife, children, and children are all in Chang'an.
He is now in his forties, but he has few heirs.
He only has one child at his knees.
This is his only bloodline.
If something happens to them, he doesn't know what the point of being alive is. .
But if Yang Ding betrayed the Protector because of this moment, he would not be able to pass his test.
You must know that Protector Liu Cheng was good to him, and Guan Dongzhuo was much better to him.
Among the Xiliang generals, he can be said to be the best.
He is one of the most highly regarded people, even veteran Duan Xuan is not as good as him.
Yang Ding stretched out his hand and grasped the handle of the knife, stared at Wang Li and said bitterly: "Wang Li, don't force me.
If anything happens to my wife and children, I will kill your entire family."
Wang Li smiled calmly: "Brother Yang, there is no need to be angry.
When I have reached this stage, I will not care about anything else.
Life and death are just trivial matters.
Showing our righteousness is what we should do."
Yang Ding knew that Wang Li was determined to use his wife and children to force him to kill Liu Cheng, so he stood up and shouted: "Come here!"
Yang Kuan, the general of the family, strode in with his sword in hand and clasped his fists: "General" Yang Ding stared at Wang Li and shouted: "Pass my general's order to immediately seal the city gates.
Only entry is allowed and no exit is allowed.
The number of sentries and patrols doubled above and below the city wall.
The patrols doubled the number of patrols and shortened each patrol.
During this time, if someone neglects his or her duties, he will be severely punished.
If someone wants to leave the city, he must have a warrant written by the general before he can let him go.
Anyone who intrudes without a warrant will be shot to death."
"Take the order."
Yang Kuan clasped his fists and agreed, turning around and leaving.
Wang Li's expression changed.
He stood up involuntarily and said, "Brother Yang, I advise you not to take risks.
You won't be able to save your wife and children."
"Wang Li, you don't know me, Yang Ding, yet.
Although I, Yang, am not a good person, I am by no means an ungrateful person.
The Protector of the Country has shown me the kindness of knowing me.
How can I harm him?
Even if Grand Master Dong was so unpopular that he became violent.
His corpse is on the street, but he is still a kind person to us Xiliang generals."
A few soldiers walked in with their swords drawn and clasped their fists: "General" "Brother Wang, please go to the guest room to rest.
You are not allowed to leave the room without my general's instructions."
Yang Ding said and walked away.
Several soldiers gathered around Wang Li, "Sir, please" Wang Li shouted to Yang Ding's back: "Yang Ding, you will regret doing this."
Yang Ding turned a deaf ear.
He immediately rode to the south gate to inspect the sentries and patrols in person.
If he found anyone who was lax, he immediately punished them severely.
Some people were beaten to pieces.
After being frightened, the sentries and patrols no longer dared to slack off.
All those who wanted to leave the city without a warrant were stopped.
Two hours later, Yang Ding led people back to the city lord's palace and came to the room where Wang Li was imprisoned.

He grabbed Wang Li's clothes and pushed him against the wall.
He said coldly: "Tell me, where is your contact point in the city?"
Who is the person who contacted you?
Where are my wife and children being imprisoned by you?"
Wang Li's face was calm.
He knew that Yang Ding did not dare to kill him until he found the whereabouts of his wife and children.
He said, "General Yang, do you think I will tell you?
If you think that it is enough to seal the city gate and prevent my people from spreading the news."
If I give you time to rescue my wife and nephew, you are totally wrong.
I have told you a long time ago not to act rashly, but you don’t listen.
If you don’t do anything rashly before midnight tonight, If you don't let me out, your wife and children will be dead.
Don't be afraid to tell you the truth.
I told you before I came here that if I don't go back in two hours, my people will spread the news.
Now the time has passed.
The order to kill your wife and children has been issued.
You must release me before midnight tonight.
I can immediately summon them to stop their actions.
After midnight tonight, it will be too late."
Yang Ding stared at Wang Li coldly and sneered: "Do you think I will believe you?
I have ordered the whole city to be sealed like an iron barrel.
Not even a mosquito can fly out.
I can't think of anything you can do."
What kind of ability can spread the news?"
"It's too much to say that even a mosquito can't fly out.
I don't know if mosquitoes can fly out, but I know that pigeons can definitely fly out."
Yang Ding's expression changed: "Pigeon" "Hahaha, it seems that General Yang is not stupid, he reacts very quickly."
Yang Ding's face instantly turned pale, and he staggered back a few steps.
The two soldiers behind him quickly supported him.
If manpower was used to transmit the order, Yang Ding would be sure to send a horse to catch up and intercept the order.
But with the carrier pigeon, he had no choice but to use the carrier pigeon to issue the order and retract the previous order.
"How could I be so stupid?
Why didn't I think they would use carrier pigeons to deliver messages?"
Yang Ding held his head with painful regret.
General Yang Kuan cupped his fists and shouted: "General, there is no need to do this.
We still have time.
Please order the general to send out troops and horses to search for him.
I will personally lead the team.
I don't believe that we can't find his contact person.
His contact person must still be there."
For another carrier pigeon, as long as we capture his contact and the carrier pigeon, we can issue an order to stop them."
Yang Ding was shocked, and he immediately straightened up and immediately ordered: "Okay, pass on my order, dispatch a battalion, and you will personally lead the team to conduct an inspection of each residential area, and never let go of anything suspicious."
"Take the order."
Yang Kuan clasped his fists and agreed, then turned around and left quickly.
Now it's all about luck.
If you're lucky, you can find the contact point before midnight and have a great chance of stopping the other party's actions.

If you can't find the contact point before dawn, Yang Ding didn't dare to think about it any more.
Wang Li looked at Yang Ding coldly and said: "Brother Yang, you don't have much time left.
Moreover, if my people kill the carrier pigeon during the search, what do you think will happen if we don't let him go before this time?"
If you kill me, just wait to collect the bodies of your wife and children, because I need time to prepare.
Starting from Haishi, the preparations can be completed before I can issue the order at Zishi, so you only have one hour."
This city was built not long ago and has a small population, less than 5,000 people, and a considerable number of them are the families of generals, officers and soldiers.
A sudden large-scale search turned the whole city upside down.
General Yang Kuan led his troops to search door to door, blocking all streets and alleys.
During the search, no one was allowed to go out.
Half an hour passed, and the search yielded no results.
Yang Ding, who was waiting for news in the lobby of the city lord's palace, was so anxious that cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He kept walking around in the hall, which was completely chaotic.
Another quarter of an hour passed.
Yang Kuan walked in with a sad face and bowed with his fists clasped in his hands: "I am incompetent.
I searched every house.
I dug almost three feet of the ground, but I still couldn't find Wang Li." contact traces” There was no color on Yang Ding's face.
He took a few steps back and fell down on a low table.
His whole body lost all energy.
"I'm sorry for you, son, I'm sorry for you as a father," Yang Ding muttered to himself.
The atmosphere in the hall was tense, and the soldiers did not dare to breathe loudly.
After a long time, Yang Ding asked: "Yang Kuan, what do you think this general should do?"
Yang Kuan pondered for a moment, clasped his fists and said carefully: "General, there is no other way now.
If we don't agree to the man named Wang, my sister-in-law and nephew will die.
How about we agree to him?"
Yang Ding slowly raised his head and looked at Yang Kuan.
Yang Kuan felt guilty.
After all, these words coming out of his mouth were suspected of urging Yang Ding to rebel.
"Do you really think they will let my wife and children go if I promise him?"
Yang Kuan was confused: "What does the general mean by this?
Why can't the general understand that they want to use the general?
How can they harm my sister-in-law and nephew?"
Yang Ding stood up slowly, took a deep breath and said: "I finally figured it out just now.
Even if I promise him, they will never allow our family to survive after the matter is completed.
You don't even think about it.
The imperial troops and horses are all under the control of the protector of the country."
In the hands of the Duke, most of the officials in the court were promoted by the Lord Protector, and many of them are close associates of the Lord Protector.
Even if we kill the Lord Protector, how can Wang Li, a bunch of losers, control the government and the army?
It’s not about winning over everyone If the Lord Protector, the chief general of the army and the one who wants to win over the ministers of the court, dies in my hands, how can his cronies and generals give up?
Not only do they want to kill me, they will also force the emperor, Wang Li and his gang to kill me. , the emperor and Wang Li’s gang In order to appease the anger of the generals and court ministers, they can only kill my whole family.
Where is there a place for our family in this world?
Not only will we die without a burial place, but we will also be infamous as a rebellious minister and traitor after death.
Why should I come here?
" Yang Kuan looked at Yang Ding blankly, and suddenly felt a little dry.
He cupped his fists and asked, "What do you think, general?"
Yang Ding thought everything through, and his face calmed down.

He walked to the desk and quickly wrote a letter.
He put it in an envelope and handed it to Yang Kuan, saying: "Yang Kuan, my wife, children, and children will not survive.
I There is no point in living.
Instead of committing a betrayal and being reputed for being unfaithful after death, I would rather take the initiative to stay with my wife and children.
It would be good for our family to reunite down below.
Please keep this last letter for me.
If you have the chance to see the Protector, give it to him and say that I, Yang Ding, did not betray, but that my wife and children were kidnapped, and I can't save him, so I have no choice but to commit suicide to thank my father-in-law for knowing me.
Now, go kill Wang Li and chop off his head."
Yang Kuan stretched out his trembling hand to catch the letter and stuffed it into his arms.
Just as he was about to speak, Yang Ding pulled out a sword and wiped it on his neck.
He was shocked and immediately drew out the sword to block it.
He cupped his fists and knelt down, shouting.
He said: "General, you don't have to be like this.
We still have a chance and we still have a chance to make a comeback.
General, you must not commit suicide."
Yang Ding looked decadent and said with a wry smile: "This is the end of the matter.
Don't comfort me if there is another chance."
"The general can pretend to agree to Wang Li first and delay the time.
Even if they want to kill the Lord Protector, they can't take action within a day or two.
This requires a careful plan.
To be honest, something will happen in the end.
A cousin works as an errand in the Bronze Mirror Division, and is still a big official.
At the end of the day, he can send 800 li plus Send a letter urgently to ask them to help find out the whereabouts of my sister-in-law and nephew and try to rescue them.
Moreover, this is within their scope of authority.
I believe the general knows the capabilities of the Bronze Mirror Division.
As long as this matter is solved, Bronze Mirror will Si will go out in force, and they will definitely find my sister-in-law and nephew soon
