Chapter 21 A Visit to the Zhennan Palace
It has been several days since I returned to the capital of Dali, and Bai Yi and Ah Zi have spent almost all of them in the inn these days.
The huge internal force before still hurt Bai Yi and Ah Zi's meridians, as long as they exercised, the meridians would still ache faintly, and it would take time to use the internal force to slowly cultivate the injured meridians.
After a few days of recuperation, coupled with the assistance of some precious healing herbs purchased from the pharmacy after not being short of money, Bai Yi and Ah Zi have already recuperated.
Although Bai Yi has almost stayed at home these days, places such as inns and taverns are well-informed, so he has heard about what happened in the capital of Dali.
First of all, the four guards of the Zhennan Wangfu went out of the city in order to find Duan Yu, the son of the king of Zhennan who disappeared in the spring, and then found Duan Yu in a few days, and Duan Yu returned to the city with Duan Yu, as well as the Zhennan princess Dao Baifeng, who had been practicing in the Jade Void Temple.
It was a big event for the princess of Zhennan to return home, and the people of Dali in the city went to the city gate to welcome her, of course, I don't know if she was really welcome or was forcibly mobilized by the government.
In addition, there was a beautiful woman dressed in black who followed Duan Yu and seemed to have a close relationship with Duan Yu.
That night, Yue Lao, one of the four evildoers, broke into Zhennan Wangfu at night, and then the second and fourth of the four evildoers and the master of Wanjiao Valley also appeared in Zhennan Wangfu and arrested Duan Yu, which really made a lot of noise.
The next day, in order to rescue Duan Yu, Duan Zhengchun, the king of Zhennan, and his four guards, even Duan Zhengming, the emperor of Dali, led troops out of the city and went to the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations.
However, it seems that the trip to save people is not smooth, I heard that the head of the four evil people also appeared in the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations, and even the Dali Emperor Duan Zhengming was not against him, so Duan Zhengming went back to the capital halfway, and then went to the Lianhua Temple outside the city, and invited the Huangmei monk in the temple.
Although there were twists and turns after that, Duan Yu was still rescued, and now he is recuperating in the Zhennan Palace, and the Zhennan Mansion also announced that he had found the lost county lord, that is, the woman in black who had been with Duan Yu before, but he had not returned to the house with him at present.
After sorting out some information so far, Bai Yi has a general understanding of the current plot progress, but what is more strange is that in the original book, Duan Yuhui was taken to Tianlong Temple by Duan Zhengchun and Duan Zhengming for treatment due to the internal force in his body after the incident in the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations, but now he is recuperating at home.
Bai Yi thought about it, maybe this was also the butterfly effect brought by himself, because he took the Northern Spiritual Skill, Duan Yu did not learn the Northern Spiritual Skill, and naturally there would be no problem of internal force running away due to absorbing too much internal force.
But in this way, Duan Yu didn't go to Tianlong Temple, and this six-vein divine sword map would also be destroyed in the near future, wouldn't there be no one in this world who would know the six-vein divine sword?
"It seems that it's time to take Ah Zi to Zhennan Wangfu to have a look. After thinking about it for a while, Bai Yi made up his mind.
However, it is still necessary to ask Ah Zi's opinion on this matter.
Thinking of this, Bai Yi left his room, came to the outside of Ah Zi's room, and knocked on the door.
Hearing a knock on the door, there was a sound of footsteps in the house, and then the door was opened, revealing Ah Zi's little head, and when he found that Bai Yi was standing outside the door, he immediately showed a big smile.
"Big Brother Bai, what's the matter?"
Bai Yi nodded, and said with a straight face: "Well, I plan to take you to meet someone today." However, it is up to you to decide whether you want to meet this person or not. ”
"Who?" Ah Zi was a little puzzled, as far as she knew, she and Bai Yi didn't know anyone in Dali.
"Your father!"
......
In the end, Ah Zi still agreed to meet Duan Zhengchun with Bai Yi, although she still had a little nostalgia for this father who suddenly appeared in her heart, but Bai Yi said the origin of the word "Duan" on her shoulder and the golden lock on her chest, but she had to believe that Duan Zhengchun was her father, and since he was her father, she should still go to see him.
However, why did Big Brother Bai know that I had a "paragraph" on my shoulder, and that I had a golden lock on my chest, and even knew the words on the golden lock......?
I don't know what I thought, Ah Zi, who was walking with Bai Yi on the road to Zhennan Wangfu, quietly glanced at Bai Yi, his face turned red instantly, and at the same time secretly took a sip:
"Ascending the Disciple ......"
"What did you say?" Bai Yi seemed to hear Ah Zi whispering something, but he didn't hear it clearly.
"Ah, I didn't speak......" Ah Zi exerted her ability to be perfected, and said nonsense with her eyes open, but her face was even redder, like a ripe red apple, which made people want to bite into it.
Didn't you say what you blushed about? Bai Yi was a little speechless, but Ah Zi didn't want to say, and Bai Yi couldn't ask any more, shook his head, and continued walking. If he knew that Ah Zi seemed to have misunderstood something, he would probably want to knock Ah Zi on the head a few times.
It was not far from Bai Yi's inn to Zhennan Wangfu, and in less than half an hour, Bai Yi and Ah Zi had already arrived in front of the mansion of Zhennan Wangfu.
Looking at the magnificent gate of Zhennan Palace, Bai Yi couldn't help but sigh that Duan Zhengchun deserved to be the prince, this palace was indeed magnificent, no wonder he could pick up so many girls, he was a prince, he was handsome, and his martial arts were not bad, which was very attractive to those women.
There are two guards guarding the door standing in front of the palace, and seeing that their temples are bulging, they should practice a certain amount of external skills. Bai Yi stepped forward, and they immediately stopped him.
"The palace is important, no trespassing!"
Bai Yi was not annoyed, handed over Ah Zi's golden lock, and then said:
"I and the girl behind me want to ask to see the king of Zhennan, please let me know, please give this golden lock to the king of Zhennan, and he will meet us when he sees it. ”
The doorman took the golden lock, glanced at Bai Yi, and saw that Bai Yi had an extraordinary demeanor and a calm expression, not like a swagger and deceitful person in the palace, and although the Dali Duan family is a royal family, they often regard themselves as people in the rivers and lakes, and usually receive some people in the rivers and lakes, and they can't make up their minds about Bai Yi's request to see the doorman, so the doorman who took the golden lock entered the door with the golden lock to report, and the remaining doorman still stopped Bai Yi and the two from the door.
After a while, a middle-aged man dressed as a Confucian scholar with a judge's pen in his hand came out, and the doorman who had entered to pass the word followed respectfully.
Seeing the judge's pen of the visitor, Bai Yi had already guessed the identity of the person who came, it was Zhu Danchen among Duan Zhengchun's four guards, this person was the head of the four guards, his martial arts were not necessarily the highest among the largest guards, but his brain was the best of the four, and he usually worked part-time as Duan Zhengchun's brain, which can be called resourceful.
When Zhu Danchen came out, he saw Bai Yi and Ah Zi at a glance, and immediately greeted him, arched his hand in front of the two, and said:
"The two of you are the ones who handed over the golden lock, in Xia Zhu Danchen, they are the personal guards of the prince, the prince is invited!"
Zhu Danchen spoke very politely, not at all arrogant as the head of the four guards of Zhennan Palace, but with an elegant atmosphere, treating people just right, which made people feel good.
Bai Yi and Ah Zi nodded, and then entered the Zhennan Mansion under Zhu Danchen's agent.
Zhu Danchen walked quite fast along the way, maybe Duan Zhengchun said something like "please" when he saw Jin Suo.
Zhennan Wangfu covers an area of not small, there are a lot of servants, and there are also many precious flowers and plants planted in the garden passing by, among which the tea tree is the most, and I don't know if it is because Duan Yu was obsessed with appreciating tea, or because Duan Zhengchun remembered a lover who was obsessed with tea trees.
Zhu Danchen led the two of them not to the banquet hall of the palace, but to the outside of Duan Zhengchun's study.
Compared with the banquet hall with many ears and eyes, the study room is more suitable for talking about some private things, Bai Yi estimated that Duan Zhengchun met the two of them in the study, and he didn't want his princess to know that he might have another daughter, after all, Duan Zhengchun was a strict wife, although he was merciful outside, but Bai Feng was not allowed to take the knife at home, but he didn't dare to bring it home.
Zhu Danchen stepped forward and knocked on the door and said, "Lord Wang, they are here." ”
"Please!" came a somewhat anxious voice from the room, but there seemed to be a little joy in the voice.
Then Zhu Danchen took the initiative to open the door of the study, and then made a gesture of invitation to Bai Yi and Ah Zi.
Bai Yi nodded and walked towards the study, while Ah Zi hesitated for a moment and followed behind Bai Yi, but the expression on his face was a little complicated, as if he was expecting, nervous, and a little complaining.
She has no parents since she was a child, she grew up under Ding Chunqiu's door since she was a child, and she intrigued with her brothers every day, and lived very carefully, sometimes she would think about who her parents were, and why she would ruthlessly abandon herself, and now she finally wants to see her father, and her heart is full of emotions for a while.
After the two walked into the study, Zhu Danchen then closed the door and did not follow into the study, but looked at the wind outside.
Entering the study, Bai Yi first saw a middle-aged man standing on the left and right sides of the study. This person is dressed in a white gold-rimmed robe, with a gold silk crown on his head, handsome but dignified, elegant but majestic, it is Duan Zhengchun, the king of Dali Zhennan!
When Duan Zhengchun saw Bai Yi and Ah Zi coming in, he directly ignored Bai Yi who was standing in front, and directly looked at Ah Zi in the back, a little surprised, but a little hesitant.
"Are you Ah Zi?"
"You...... Is it my father?"
