Zhuang Ze walked out of the Dali Palace, and several deputy envoys hurriedly greeted him.

"My lord, are we really going to leave for China today?"

"Now that I'm in the wind and rain, isn't it inappropriate to return to China at this time?"

"How's your lord doing today? Is the Emperor of Dali already agreeing to our return to China?"

"Colleagues, let's all disperse. Just now, the emperor of Dali asked us to wait for three days, and after three days, give us an answer." Looking at the several deputy envoys in front of him, Zhuang Ze showed a sad look.

Seeing that Zhuang Ze was worried, several deputy envoys glanced at each other, and since they already knew the answer, they didn't bother.

"Three days? It seems that there may be a turning point in this matter."

"It seems that the adults are a little tired during this time, and the officials and others will not bother."

"Farewell ......".

These people said goodbye one after another, Zhuang Ze showed a wry smile and walked slowly to the front, and the coachman and housekeeper hurriedly followed.

The breeze is blowing, and the noise is endless. Looking at the prosperity of the royal capital of Dali in front of him, thinking of the crisis encountered by the imperial court, it makes people even more sad. It has been more than a month since I came to Dali, and I thought that this matter was very simple. With the relationship between this dynasty and Dali, convincing them to send troops is just a matter of words.

When I arrived, I realized that some things are not so simple.

In the Dali Dynasty, the major tribal forces, led by Taishi, strongly supported the Northern Expedition. If it weren't for the opposition of the other faction, I'm afraid the situation would have been even more unbearable.

Thinking of this, the sorrow became a little thicker. Today, retreating is a last resort. The situation is like this, and there is nothing to be done about it.

"The master is still worried about persuading Dali to send troops." Seeing Zhuang Ze's sad look, the housekeeper couldn't help but ask.

Zhuang Ze nodded, looked at the bustling crowd in front of him, and sighed: "More than a month ago, I got a document from the imperial court, asking me to go to the royal capital of Dali immediately to solve the crisis in the south. I thought it was simple, but I didn't expect it to be so complicated."

"Can the lord tell the villain in detail. It's also good to be able to relieve boredom." The housekeeper thought about it, and only this method could help him relieve a little sorrow.

Zhuang Ze heard the housekeeper's inquiry and smiled reluctantly: "Do you still remember the accident that occurred when the first emperor of Dali died."

"The villain has heard a little, I heard that that night, a man appeared, who was from my Da Zhou. and Dali Duan's family, the intersection is very thick. Overnight, she seized military power and forged the prestige of the eldest princess of Dali." The housekeeper fell into a memory, and the incident that happened in Dali back then really shocked all countries in the world.

Zhuang Ze heard the butler's reply, shook his head, and sighed again: "You only know one thing, but you don't know the other." Today, Dali made such a choice. In the end, it was buried at the beginning."

"The villain is stupid, he only knows some, and the words that are circulating in the market are also explained in detail by the master." When the housekeeper heard what Zhuang Ze said, he knew that he was interested, so he hurriedly made a look of deafness.

Zhuang Ze thought about it and turned his head to look at the housekeeper next to him. Seeing that he had a slightly listening gesture, he smiled slightly. Turning his head again, he looked ahead: "The man's surname is Zhou Mingbo, and he is the old owner of the Spring and Autumn Villa, an orphan who was adopted. During the period of five dynasties and ten kingdoms, the people were poor, and the people were poor. The forces of the rivers and lakes take the opportunity to become bigger. Among them, the Spring and Autumn Villa is the most, and there are disciples in the village, tens of thousands of people. In this dynasty, Emperor Ren ruled the world. The forces of the rivers and lakes dissipated, and there were only 8,000 elite disciples left in the Spring and Autumn Villa. Do you know why, for decades, the government and the opposition have been dealing with them. It seems to be completely gone, not a little news".

"As far as the villain knows, after Emperor Ren ruled the world, the so-called forces in the rivers and lakes were just some thieves who deceived and stole their reputations. Don't say that there are thousands of disciples, even hundreds, it seems to be very small. If what the master said is the truth, the so-called Spring and Autumn Villa has 8,000 elites. The court categorically will not, will not receive information, and will not turn a blind eye." When the housekeeper heard Zhuang Ze's words, he felt that he was listening to the book of heaven. Jianghu forces? It's like a legend from a long, long time ago.

Hearing the butler's tone of complete disbelief, Zhuang Ze did not refute, but just explained to himself: "Because they all followed Zhou Bo and came here." Otherwise, with his own strength, how could he seize military power. Overnight, let the royal capital bleed like a river".

"Spring and Autumn Villa? Could it be Dali, the most elite army...... Chunqiu Wei. It's not a rumor in the market, it's the eldest princess, who is kind-hearted, and saved some refugees in my big week. Is it a spontaneous army formed by refugees in return for their kindness? Its army is light on life and death, and it is important for kindness and righteousness. Sacrifice death and forget life, combat effectiveness is strong, and the life of the eldest princess of Dali is obeyed. If it weren't for the fact that there were only 3,000 people, I am afraid that Jiaozhi and Tubo would have had trouble sleeping and eating." The housekeeper felt that the words Spring and Autumn were very familiar, and listened to Zhuang Ze on the words Zhou Bo, accentuating the tone. A flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind, and he looked at Zhuang Ze in disbelief. It seems that the rumors in the market are really true and false, and they are not shallow.

Zhuang Ze saw the housekeeper's disbelieving gaze and nodded: "These two sisters and brothers of the Duan family regard Chunqiu Wei as their confidants. Leave three thousand, well-guarded. There were five thousand men left, all scattered among the armies. I heard that the Dali Military Department Shangshu, Shangguan Yixiu and Fu Yi, the commander of the forbidden army, were also born in the Spring and Autumn Guard. After so many years, its power has become successful. And Taishi is Dali, the representative of various tribes. The game between the two major forces has completely erupted at this critical moment."

When the butler heard this, he fell into deep thought.

Zhuang Ze looked worried, looked at the housekeeper who was deep in thought, and continued: "So we have been here for more than a month, and there has been no progress at all, and it is also for this reason. This matter is extremely important to my big week. But for Dali, it is a game between forces. The defeated are destroyed, but the strong survive. It's going to be hard to get results for a while."

"This ...... How is this good, the old court doesn't have time, wait for them to decide the winner. Is there really no way to solve this matter? “。 When the housekeeper heard this, he finally understood why Zhuang Ze was worried, and he was also in trouble for a while.

Zhuang Ze looked at the housekeeper, and he was also troubled for a while: "This is also the reason why I proposed to return to the DPRK, if I can't convince me, I can only return to China." persuade the eldest princess of Dali to return, as long as she agrees at this time, those tribes will not be able to make waves. Although Emperor Dali has been in power for five years. But in the end, it is still not enough prestige, and there is no real merit."

"It seems that the master's proposal to return to China is not just a joke. If that's the case, it's a good recipe." The housekeeper didn't know the cause and effect, and praised Zhuang Ze for a while.

At this moment, an official came running quickly: "My lord, my lord, my lord...... The Imperial Court Rites Department is still in the book, Li Miao and Master Li are in a hurry".

Zhuang Ze didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly greeted him. Open the envelope and watch carefully: Duan Zhaorong, the eldest princess of Dali, with Zhou Bo and Liu Sheng, is about to rush to the royal capital of Dali, and you will go to meet you as soon as possible.

A trace of joy spread in the hearts of several people, and after more than a month of torment, the clouds finally cleared.
