Since the founding of the Dali Kingdom, in order to get closer to the Gao family, the Duan family usually adopts the method of marriage, such as the Duan family marries the Gao woman as the queen or the Duan princess is married to the successor of the Gao family.

In this way, although the Gao family has been gathered, it has also invisibly made the Gao family's strength stronger and the foundation more stable.

Gao Fang's son Gao Zhiping is twenty years old, which is the age when a man should get married.

And Duan Sicong has a daughter, who is at the age of twenty-eight, and it is already time for the female university to get married.

Originally, in accordance with the traditional rules, Duan Sicong married his daughter, and the Duan family and the Gao family would not form a situation of incompatibility, at least the two families relied on each other and constrained each other, and the political pattern could be extended for two or three generations.

But Duan Sicong insisted on refusing this matter, which caused Gao Fang to be deeply angry, and made the Gao family very uneasy.

Duan Sicong's move is equivalent to repentance of marriage, and the practice of marriage between the two families has continued to this day, and it has become a tacit rule, so that Gao Fang can only express his uneasiness in the court with a stalemate.

After a stalemate for half a year, Duan Sicong still showed no signs of relenting, but instead sent an envoy to Jinling of the Ming Kingdom.

In this way, Gao Fang couldn't sit still, in Dali Kingdom, although his own strength was said to be able to resist the Duan clan, this did not mean that his own side could overwhelm the Duan clan.

After thinking about it a few times, Gao Fang had the strange thing that the second envoy went to Jinling at the same time.

In fact, Duan Sicong was also very helpless, on the one hand, he was entrusted by his father, Duan Siliang, Emperor Wenwu of Dali, on his deathbed, and on the other hand, his daughter resolutely disagreed with this family business.

Duan Siliang, Emperor Wenwu of Dali, followed his brother as his deputy since his brother Duan Siping started the incident; 937 years. Duan Siping rebelled against the Dayi Ningguo and Sugong Emperor Yang Ganzhen, and Duan Siliang was appointed as the deputy general of the rebel army to assist Duan Siping in the destruction of the Dayi Ningguo. He made great contributions to the establishment of Dali.

After Duan Siping established the Dali Kingdom, Duan Siliang was highly valued by the imperial brother and gradually became a powerful figure in the imperial family.

In 944, Duan Siping, the Holy Spirit of Dali, died, and his son Duan Siying continued to be the Emperor of Dali Wenjing, and during the reign of Duan Siying, Emperor of Dali Wenjing, the old system was mutated. The elevation of the status of the Dong family in the former dynasty undermined the pattern of the Duan family and the Gao family jointly taking power.

As a result, Duan Siliang, the real power figure of the Duan royal family, united with Xiangguo Gao Fang, the representative of the Gao family, in 946. Launched the change of seizing the palace, forced the Dali Wenjing Emperor Duan Siying to become a monk, and Duan Siliang continued to be the emperor, which was the Emperor of Dali Shengci Wenwu.

After Duan Siliang snatched the throne from his nephew Duan Siying. There is a tangle in my heart.

He himself was able to unite with the Gao clan to snatch the throne from his nephew. In the future, the Gao clan will naturally be able to unite with others to snatch his own throne.

So, on the one hand, he married the Gao family and appeased the Gao family, but on the other hand, he secretly became wary of the Gao family.

However, at that time, Duan Siliang's position was not yet stable, and he could only rely on the Gao family to rule the Dali Kingdom together, so he lost the best opportunity to curb the expansion of the Gao family.

When Duan Siliang was dying, he repeatedly confessed to his son Duan Sicong. It is necessary to guard against the Gao clan and guard against the rebellion of the ministers. And when the time is right. In one fell swoop, he got rid of Gao, a freak who was above the imperial power.

This is the main reason why Duan Sicong did not allow the princess to marry Gao Zhiping.

And the princess's insistence on opposing it was also another auxiliary reason for Duan Sicong's refusal.

Originally, the princess did not have the strength to express her wishes in marriage, but this princess had a different weight in Duan Sicong's heart.

This starts from Duan Siping, who was the envoy of the Tonghai Festival, to raise troops to seize the Nanzhao regime.

At that time, the cunning Yang Ganzhen had already learned the news and sent heavy troops to defend it.

Duan Siping saw that the situation was unfavorable, so he ordered to camp on the spot.

That night, Duan Siping had a dream in which he dreamed of three things: one was that he was caught and beheaded, the second was that his beloved jade bottle was missing a mouth, and the third was that his treasure mirror was shattered.

The next morning, he looked at the well-defended pass in front of him, and felt more and more inappropriate, so he invited Gao Junshi to explain.

After hearing this, Gao Jialuo smiled and said, "Good dream, good dream, this dream couldn't be better!" ”

Duan Siping asked puzzledly, "Why do you say it's a good dream?" ”

Gao Jialuo said: "The husband is the husband, and the husband is the word 'heaven', which is the son of heaven; the jade bottle lacks a mouth, which is the lack of a point next to the jade word, that is, the word 'king', which is the omen of the king; there is a shadow in the mirror, such as a person has an enemy, and the mirror is broken without a shadow, which is an omen of invincibility." These three things are good signs, and there is no need to worry about them. ”

After hearing this, Duan Siping turned his worries into joy, and led his troops to battle that afternoon.

But when he saw the pass full of knives and guns, he was a little overwhelmed.

At this time, a beautiful woman suddenly emerged from the river in front of her and said to Duan Siping: "The soldiers cross the water from the end of the river, and the horses enter from the upper and lower Shaping, and you will definitely succeed." After winning the country, the name of the country was changed to Dali. ”

After saying that, the beauty is gone.

After Duan Siping heard this, he felt that his words were reasonable, so he followed the instructions of the beautiful woman and marched.

Sure enough, Duan's army was like a bamboo, and he broke through the upper and lower levels and the imperial capital in one go.

Yang Ganzhen led a few remnants of the defeated army, and it took a lot of effort to kill out of the imperial city and flee east overnight.

Since then, Duan Siping has won the world and changed the name of the country to Dali.

After Duan Siping became the king, he did not forget the help of the beautiful woman on the river.

He sent an official with his entourage to look for it, but he couldn't find it for several days.

Duan Siping went to look for it in person, but he still couldn't find it after searching all over Dali Dam.

In the end, he found a white stone statue of Guanyin on the river bank where the beautiful woman was standing, and suddenly realized: "It turns out that the heavens help each other, give the magic spear dragon horse, and the guidance of the water beauty, all of which are done by the old mother of Guanyin!" ”

He hurriedly led the civil and military officials to welcome the white stone Guanyin statue into the imperial capital, built a golden statue temple, and worshiped it from generation to generation.

Since then, all the descendants of the Duan clan have worshiped Guanyin as our mother, and they dare not have a trace of neglect.

And something strange happened when Duan Sicong's daughter was born.

At that time, Duan Sicong's queen was a woman of the Gao family, and because of the entanglement of the Gao family in his heart, Duan Sicong rarely went to the queen of the Gao family.

After that, Duan Sicong married the daughter of Sun Pingle, a confidant general under his command, as the imperial concubine.

A year later, Sun became pregnant and was about to give birth.

One day, when Duan Sicong was in the court, he got a report that a Taoist came to offer peaches, Duan Sicong was summoned, but the Taoist had disappeared without a trace, but left the peaches at the palace guard, and the Taoist left a message: "Go back quickly, after seeing the imperial concubine, let her cut the peaches." ”

Duan Sicong did not doubt him, and when he returned to the Hou Palace with the peach, the Sun family was about to give birth.

So Duan Sicong took out the peaches and asked the waiting Sun to cut them open.

The peach flesh is fragrant, and the peach pit is like a villain. (To be continued......)
