At the same time that Xuzhu went to Nanjing to meet Xiao Feng, Murong Fu also met the new emperor Duan Yu of Dali in his prime minister's mansion. From Murong Fu's point of view, after Duan Yu learned the news of Duan Zhengchun's blood book, the best way to deal with it should be to immediately give Duan Zhengchun a funeral in Dali. But the fact is: only two months later, Duan Yu came all the way to the Great Song Dynasty. In this regard, Murong Fu also had to admit that Duan Yu was really a valuable filial son.

It's a pity that his filial son Duan Yu no longer has a good impression of Murong Fu. After hastily meeting Murong Fu, Duan Yu couldn't help but ask sharply: "My father's disappearance, was it done by Lord Murong from the beginning?" Although Duan Yu's personality is a little naïve, he is really not a stupid person. As soon as he received the summons from the envoy saying that Duan Zhengchun had written a blood letter to the Great Song Dynasty to request annexation, Duan Yu immediately understood that Murong Fu had called him looking for his father all these years, but in fact, he had been shouting to catch the thief.

Murong Fu's face turned cold when he heard this, and even the best Biluochun, who was about to hand it over, stopped in mid-air. After a while, he slowly withdrew his arm, put the cup of tea back in front of him, and asked casually: "I don't know if this official is seeing Duan Gongzi or Duan Huangye today?" ”

As soon as Murong Fu said this, Duan Yudeng was stunned. He faintly felt that there was something meaningful in Murong Fu's words, but after carefully tasting it, it was like looking at flowers in a fog and couldn't understand it.

But it was Murong Fu who couldn't help laughing at himself when he saw Duan Yu's ignorant appearance. He knew very well that from a political point of view, his real opponent should be Gao Shengtai, a powerful minister of Dali, rather than Duan Yu. After the last meeting, Murong Fu had clearly realized that dealing with someone as affectionate as Duan Yu would only choke himself in the end. So, you might as well open the skylight and say something. Thinking of this, Murong Fu immediately handed over the cup of Biluochun as if nothing had happened. "Duan Gongzi has now ascended to the Great Treasure, even if he is skilled in martial arts, he should not travel without escort micro-clothes."

Duan Yu didn't understand why Murong Fu suddenly extended an olive branch again, but it was obvious that the gentle Murong Fu in front of him was far more reassuring and familiar to him than the cold Murong Fu just now. I saw that he was silent for a while, and finally gradually softened his complexion. "My father and son admit that they have no grievances with Lord Murong!"

Murong Fu smiled lightly and said clearly: "The interests of the country have nothing to do with private feelings. Duan Gongzi, today should be a private meeting, we might as well talk about it. Duan Gongzi has now been on the throne for half a year, and he is very handy with Dali's internal affairs? ”

Speaking of this, Duan Yu was suddenly gloomy. In the first twenty years of his life, he was the prince of Zhennan, the future emperor of Dali, and the king of a country. But it wasn't until he ascended the throne that he suddenly realized that the government and military strength of Dali were all in the hands of the Gao family, and he, the emperor, was just a puppet. And the emperors of the Duan royal family finally became monks and went into hiding, and it is difficult to say whether this is due to the admiration of Buddhism or the compulsion of powerful ministers. Duan Yu was young and energetic, and he was excited, so he sent an envoy to the Great Song Dynasty to ask for canonization, but in fact, he intended to hug his thighs and take advantage of the situation. The wishful thinking is good, but who would have thought that the Great Song Dynasty would suddenly make such a fuss?

"There are no secret words in front of the bright. Today's Dali country surname Gao is not surnamed Duan, and it is better to belong to the Great Song Dynasty than to cheapen Gao. At least belong to the Great Song Dynasty, and the official family can treat your Duan clan relatives with courtesy; But if the Gao family is allowed to succeed, I am afraid that the incense of the Duan family temple will be cut off. Murong Fu said again.

However, Duan Yu didn't want to be the puppet of the Gao family, how could he be willing to come to the Great Song Dynasty to be a prince? I saw him gritting his teeth and saying: "The people of Dali still have their hearts towards the Duan family!" ”

"So, Duan Gongzi is planning to conspire the people to fight with the Gao clan, causing the lives to be ruined?" Murong Fu immediately asked.

Duan Yu choked up, his moral level obviously did not allow him to make the choice of starting a war for power.

"As a friend, Duan Gongzi, I can only say that in the current situation, you only have two choices." Murong Fu casually refilled Duan Yu with a cup of tea and said slowly. "First, I insist that the real King of Zhennan is dead, and the King of Zhennan in the Outer Domain is a traitor who stole the relics of King Zhennan. Second, obediently return to the Great Song Dynasty, and the official can go to the official family to crown you as a prince and retire with the country. ”

This first method was obviously also the idea given to him by Duan Yu's courtiers, only to see Duan Yu pinching the cup and being silent for a while, and asked in a low voice, "What will happen to my father?" ”

Duan Yu's sentence was a sincere question, but Murong Fu immediately understood the meaning of his words, and replied without hesitation: "This traitor stole the relics of the King of Zhennan, spread rumors, and deceived the king, and destroyed the diplomatic relations between the Great Song Dynasty and Dali, the crime is extremely heinous, and he should be executed by Ling Chi!" ”

"No way!" Duan Yu was shocked, and immediately roared.

Murong Fu was unmoved, and only replied leisurely: "The crime of bullying the king should be the nine clans, and killing him alone is already the benevolence of the official family." ”

"What if I want to confess my father and refuse to join him?" Duan Yu was authentic word by word.

"That must be because the Gao clan is powerful, and Emperor Duan is threatened. Dali has always been very respectful, and the official family will definitely send troops to rescue him, so Emperor Duan does not have to worry. Murong Fu said comfortingly.

Murong Fu was so shameless, Duan Yu's face immediately turned blue and white, and after a long time, Fang squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "Although the country is big, if you are warlike, you will die!" ”

"The affairs of the battlefield have their own soldiers to worry about, and they are not within the scope of their duties." Murong Fu casually stretched his sleeves and stood up intending to end the meeting. "Duan Gongzi, as long as you go to the Ministry of Rites to identify yourself, you can visit Ling Zun at any time. This official knows that your martial arts are very good, but I advise you not to try to take away the king of Zhennan by force, so as not to regret it. ”

Murong Fu got up to chase away the guest, and Duan Yu no longer wasted his tongue, and immediately turned his head and left.

Before anyone had gone far, Murong Fu suddenly called out behind him: "Duan Gongzi!" Duan Yu turned around in annoyance, but saw Murong Fu said with a gentle face, "Before Yu Yan went to Shaanxi, she mentioned you to me. I can tell that she cares about you as a close friend. In the coming day, if Duan Gongzi has time, he might as well go to Shaanxi. When friends meet, it will inevitably make you happy. ”

When Murong Fu mentioned Wang Yuyan, Duan Yu immediately showed melancholy and nostalgia, and stood in place for a long time without speaking.

Murong Fu knew that Duan Yu lacked political wisdom, and he mentioned Wang Yuyan for no reason just to test his success. Now seeing Duan Yu's appearance of being moved and fascinated by love, he couldn't help but sneer, and he despised this Duan Emperor who was so affectionate and unaware of the importance of his heart even more.

Two days later, Duan Yu really met Duan Zhengchun in the outer domain. The father and son have not seen each other for many years, and when they meet at this time, they feel like they are in a different world, and they can't help but cry.

After all, Duan Zhengchun was more calm and resolute, and soon collected his tears and said with concern: "Yu'er, you are already the monarch of Dali, how can you come to the Great Song Dynasty lightly?" The son of a daughter does not sit in the hall, in case someone detains ......" Obviously, the harm Murong Fu has caused to him over the years still makes him like a frightened bird.

But before Duan Zhengchun finished speaking, Duan Yu shook his head with tears: "Daddy has been trapped in Song Land for many years, how can the child not come?" Daddy, what the hell is going on? ”

Duan Yu asked about the details of Duan Zhengchun's disappearance that year, but Duan Zhengchun couldn't help but blush. It turned out that Zhuge Zheng and I saw Duan Zhengchun's fishy nature, so he set up a deception of immortal jumping to lure him into the bait. Duan Zhengchun is very smart, this scam couldn't deceive him in the first place. But he prefers to be conceited of his martial arts and deliberately enters the army, planning to expose it after seeing enough of the good show. Unexpectedly, Zhuge Zheng and I ambushed a lot of good hands in order to catch him, and then there was no more. What's even more hateful is that Zhuge Zheng and I acted vigorously and resolutely, and a few days later, the four guards of the "Fisherman, Wood, Farming, and Reading" around him were arrested together with Ruan Xingzhu, and from then on, the heavens should not be called the earth. Duan Zhengchun naturally couldn't tell his son about this kind of humiliating thing, so he had to say vaguely: "After all, he acted carelessly for his father and fell in love with other people's ways." As he spoke, he was busy changing the subject. I've been missing for many years, what happened to your uncle and your mother? There are ......" Duan Zhengchun still wanted to mention Qin Hongmian and Gan Baobao again, but the words came to his mouth and swallowed back.

But Duan Yu was considerate, and immediately replied: "Uncle has gone to Tianlong Temple to become a monk, and my mother and Aunt Qin, Aunt Gan, as well as Sister Wan and Ling'er, are all good, but everyone is very concerned about Daddy." But it was Daddy who looked at ......" Duan Yu originally thought that Duan Zhengchun had been trapped for many years for no reason, and he must have been tortured and inhuman. How do you know that seeing each other today, Duan Zhengchun has not seen much old age except for the depression between his eyebrows. The remaining half of the sentence "cleared" can no longer be spoken, only said. "This time, not only the child came, but also Mom, Aunt Qin, Aunt Gan, Sister Wan, and Ling'er also came! Daddy, the baby will try to get you out! ”

In fact, Duan Zhengchun has been trapped for many years, and Murong Fu and Zhuge Zhengi have always treated him with courtesy, but he has no personal freedom. In the past few years, Duan Zhengchun has escaped from prison several times, but in the end, he still met Duan Yu in the Great Song Dynasty. Hearing Duan Yu say that he wanted to save him, Duan Zhengchun could only smile bitterly. "Yu'er, you don't know how powerful the Great Song Sui is to shoot the gun...... Don't worry about your father, take your mother, red cotton, baby, and your two sisters back to Dali! ”

Duan Yu shook his head vigorously. "How can I leave my father behind, is this the work of the Son of Man?"

"You are already the monarch of Dali, and you should put state affairs first!" Duan Zhengchun hurriedly said, "That day, Murong Fu threatened Xingzhu's life and forced me to write that blood book...... Afterwards, the more I thought about it, the more wrong it became. Yu'er, you can't recognize me! If you recognize me, the Song State can justifiably send troops to occupy Dali. The emperor of the Song Kingdom is narrow-minded, even if you take the initiative to join him, don't forget the fate of the lord of the Southern Tang Dynasty! ”

After Li Yu, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty, surrendered to the Song Dynasty, he was named "Disobedient Marquis" by Zhao Tai/Zu and suffered humiliation. After the Southern Tang Dynasty was completely annexed, Li Yu lost the value of his deposit, and his life was ended by the drug. A lesson from the past, we must guard against it!

How could Duan Yu agree to Duan Zhengchun, and said in tears: "If I don't recognize my father, my father is a madman who deceives the king, and the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty will definitely kill my father!" ”

"If you recognize me, the Duan family's throne will not be guaranteed!" Duan Zhengchun said sharply.

Speaking of this, Duan Yu suddenly laughed at himself. "Daddy, Dali only knows high-definition flats in China, and I don't know Emperor Duan. If I don't meet the intentions of the Great Song Emperor this time, the Great Song Emperor will definitely hate the Duan family, and maybe he will support the Gao family to usurp the throne. ”

Duan Yu's words were like a basin of cold water, pouring Duan Zhengchun's heart and soul cold. I saw him murmur twice in a disdainful voice: "This ...... This ......" suddenly sat down weakly in the chair, and held back a sentence in contrition for a long time. "I knew it was so...... If I had known this, I would have died! ”

On this day, Duan Yu didn't know how he got back to the inn. Since receiving Duan Zhengchun's news, Gao Shengtai tried his best to oppose Duan Yu going to the Great Song Dynasty, lest even Duan Yu fall into it. At that time, the Great Song Dynasty issued an edict in the name of Duan Yu to make the people of Dali attached, and Gao's plans over the years became empty.

It's a pity that Duan Yu cares about his father, Dao Baifeng cares about her husband, Qin Hongmian and Gan Baobao care about her lover, and Mu Wanqing and Zhong Ling care about Duan Yu, so they ran away together without Gao Shengtai. Duan Yu sneaked to Da Song and never showed his identity, so he naturally could only stay at the guest house. Although he met with the officials of the Ministry of Rites today, the officials of the Ministry of Rites also said that they could sort out a suitable residence for Emperor Duan at any time. But Duan Yu was already on guard against the Great Song Dynasty after all, and he never responded to their enthusiasm.

After all, the Duan family is a royal family, even if it is a guest house, the entire inn must be all-inclusive. Seeing Duan Yu coming back, several women rushed up at the same time, asking Duan Zhengchun about his current situation.

Duan Yuzheng was upset about state affairs, and he was even more disturbed when he saw this group of female porridge, so he reluctantly replied a few words and sat in the chair with a depressed face and did not speak.

But it was Dao Baifeng's strong temperament, and he also heard that Duan Zhengchun had been trapped with Ruan Xingzhu all these years, Qin Hongmian and Gan Baobao just scolded, but Dao Baifeng immediately wanted to go back to Dali and no longer care about this negative man. There is a lesson from Duan Zhengchun's past, how can Duan Yu rest assured that Dao Baifeng will leave alone, and he hurriedly stepped forward to persuade: "Mom, it's important to find a way to rescue Daddy first, and the matter of Daddy and Aunt Ruan should be put aside first!" ”

Duan Yu's words are very pragmatic, but he can't get into the ears of Bai Feng, the sword who values the most dignity and love in his life. Thinking that he had been hanging for that negative person day and night all these years, but he was having fun with Ruan Xingzhu in Song Tu, Dao Baifeng was even more angry. Now that he heard that his only son's words also meant to defend Duan Zhengchun, the resentment that had accumulated in Dao Baifeng's heart for decades immediately erupted, and he slapped him without thinking about it. "Even you help your daddy!"

Duan Yu has been favored since he was a child, when did he receive such treatment? Dao Baifeng's slap immediately knocked him to the ground and stood on the spot. Family and country, family affection, love, the weight of this intertwined and entangled has already overwhelmed Duan Yu, and the slap of Dao Baifeng is like the last straw that crushes the camel, only to see Duan Yu stunned for a while and suddenly cried loudly. "Mom, the Duan family's Guozong Temple is about to be lost, what does it matter who Daddy is with!"

As soon as Duan Yu cried, everyone panicked, and even Dao Baifeng no longer made a fuss about going back to Dali. Several women surrounded Duan Yu in the center, comforting and questioning, and after making trouble for most of the hour, they intermittently sorted out the entire development context of Duan Zhengchun's disappearance from Duan Yu's mouth.

Qin Hongmian and the other four women are all from the rivers and lakes, and they are straightforward and lack of decision-making. And the only Dao Baifeng who is long in the center of politics is a character who puts love first and ignores mundane affairs. Now I heard that some people have been able to endure and plan for many years, and patiently waited until Duan Yu ascended the throne to sacrifice Duan Zhengchun to plot Dali Kingdom, everyone was stunned and palpitated. I saw that they were silent for a long time with horror on their faces, and finally Mu Wanqing, who was pungent and straightforward, broke the silence and scolded hatefully: "This Murong Fu is so vicious!" He should have been killed! ”

Duan Yu cried again, but his mood was much calmer. Hearing Mu Wanqing say that he wanted to kill someone, he just sighed bitterly. "This Lord Murong is in the left prime minister, and he has a high position in the Great Song Dynasty, how can he kill him?" He vented, and the pressure in his heart suddenly decreased, but he regretted Fang Cai's gaffe, and hurriedly wiped his face. "It's getting late, so let's rest early! There are so many things to rescue my father that I can't rush to. So saying, he hurried into his house.
