Duan Siming shook the holy decree in his hand, then shook his head and said, "This king did invite the holy decree, but you'd better not go with me." Let's not talk about the king's envoy, there is no reason to bring a female dependent, just say that you have met with Li Huan, you will be killed, and even this king will be implicated. ”

Murong Yunyao originally decided not to stay, Duan Siming's last sentence seemed to move her, she thought for a while, and said helplessly: "Okay, what you said has some truth, that girl is waiting for your good news in the village, I hope you don't let me down!" ”

Duan Siming smiled and nodded, "You can rest assured that this king will do things, without further ado." I'll get up now! As he spoke, he waved his hand at the guards beside him, who immediately lifted the iron cage with several wooden sticks. The mad dog in the cage was alarmed, and immediately threw away the huge bone in his mouth, barking at the guards who carried the cage, and rushed towards them.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! "The fierce body of the mad dog hit the iron railing countless times, but it could not break free. But it didn't seem to be reconciled, and it continued to struggle and bark, as if it wanted to bite to death all those who dared to offend it. The guards hurriedly put the cage on the ground again, for fear of being bitten by this thing and taking their own lives in vain.

After all, the mad dog has limited physical strength, and after hitting it for a long time, it slowly lost its strength, but its two front paws still clung to the ground, leaned forward slightly, and stared at everyone viciously with those blood-red eyes. When the guards saw that the mad dog had finally stopped, they hurriedly lifted the cage and ran towards the outside of the village.

Duan Siming looked at the mad dog and said secretly in his heart, "Li Huan, Li Huan." This wild dog is so crazy, looking at it today, except for my master and a few masters of the older generation, who can easily subdue it, as long as it bites you, you just wait to report to Hades! ”

Three days later, Qu Yue Yu Study.

Ding Bu led the early dynasty and was alone in the imperial study to review the recital, when the chief manager walked in, "The official family, Duan Sicong, the emperor of Dali, sent his cousin Duan Siming as a special envoy to consolidate the covenant with gold, silver and jewelry. As he spoke, he handed the gift list to Ding Buling with both hands.

Ding Buling took the gift list, read it hastily, and saw that although the number of jewels sent was acceptable, they were all sparse and ordinary, so he was a little absent-minded. But when his eyes saw the last thing, his brows involuntarily furrowed slightly, and the corners of his mouth showed a curious smile.

"Interesting! This Dali country actually sent me a strange beast, I don't know what it looks like. Ding Buling smiled and said: "You preach the will for me, and tomorrow you will hold a banquet in the Fushou Palace to entertain Duan Siming, the envoy of Dali, and let all the civil and military officials support the scene." ”

The chief manager nodded, "Yes, the miscellaneous family will send someone to accept the gift." ”

Ding Bu Ling waved his hand, "Go, in addition, you personally go and inform the Ten Dao General Li Huan and Dingguo Gong Ruan Lu, so that they must go tomorrow." The Grand Master nodded again and exited the Imperial Study.

A moment later, the general secretary hurried to Li Huan's general's mansion at the behest of the Ding commander. The guards in front of the general's mansion saw that someone was coming from the palace, how dare they be the slightest slack, and hurriedly led the chief manager to the main hall to meet Li Huan.

Li Huan was sitting in the main hall at this time, holding a miscellaneous book in his hand, and a cup of tea was placed on the table next to him, and the heat in the cup was rising. He seemed to have expected that someone would come to the palace, and he was not surprised to see the chief steward personally come to deliver the decree.

The chief manager gave a deep salute and said: "General Li, the official family will hold a banquet in the Fushou Hall tomorrow to entertain Duan Siming, the envoy of Dali. No one in the world knows the prestige of General Li, so the official family specially sent a miscellaneous family to inform you that you will participate tomorrow no matter what. ”

"There is the general manager of the Labor University, and the Japanese general will arrive tomorrow." Li Huan returned the salute, and then asked, "In addition to letting General Ben come, who else did the official family invite to the banquet?" ”

The general manager: "The official family wants to be strong in front of the prince of Dali, so all the civil and military officials are invited to participate, but only you and Ruan Guogong are hand-picked by the officials." ”

Li Huan's eyes rolled, and there was a burst of secret joy in his heart, "If Ruan Lu also goes to the banquet tomorrow, it will really help me!" As soon as tomorrow passes, this Qu Yue's throne will be mine! He thought about it and said, "The chief manager of labor is here in person, and General Ben will definitely go early tomorrow, and you can go back to the palace to resume your life." ”

The chief steward replied: "Good! Then he walked out of the room and went straight back to the palace, surrounded by several small eunuchs.

Li Huan saw that the chief manager had gone away, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a cruel smile, "Ding Commander, tomorrow you will be a dead man, this general can finally change from a general of the Ten Dao who is above ten thousand people under one person to the king of the entire Qu Yue, and he no longer has to listen to anyone's orders!" ”

The next day, Fushou Hall.

Fushou Hall is specially used by Emperor Qu Yue to ask for merit for hundreds of officials, or to meet important envoys of other countries and build, the layout of the palace is naturally more luxurious than any hall in the palace. The whole hall is very tall and spacious, the nine pillars in the hall are as thick as two people hugging together, all are brushed with good gold paint, the pillar body is carved with a vivid golden dragon from bottom to top, quite a sense of nobility and majesty, grace and luxury.

Ding Bu Ling was dressed in a dragon robe and sat on the main seat in the middle of the main hall, while the civil and military officials led by Li Huan and Ruan Lu sat in two compartments, leaving only the first table and chair on their right hand empty. Li Huan sat down behind the first table on his left hand, his eyes scanning the hall full of colleagues, and he had a wishful thinking in his heart.

When he looked at everyone in the hall, his eyes finally fell on the middle-aged man behind the second table opposite him. I saw that this person's face looked like a jade, his figure was well-proportioned, he had a pair of long gray hair under his forehead, although his height was slightly shorter than Li Huan, but the majesty and righteousness exuded by his whole body made no one dare to underestimate half a point.

Li Huan looked at this person with great respect on the surface, but he was secretly smiling in his heart, "Ruan Lu, you are really here." Now that you're here, let's become a knife in my hand for the time being! ”

Ruan Kuang saw Li Huan looking at him, he didn't think much about it, he arched his hand towards Li Huan with a smile, and Li Huan also hugged him when he saw this, in the eyes of outsiders, the two had a sense of harmony at this time, at least in the eyes of Ding Buling.

Everyone greeted each other for a while, and a little eunuch walked quickly to the main hall and shouted in his thin voice: "Duan Siming, the prince of Dali, has arrived!" ”

Ding Buling and the hundred officials in the palace were shocked when they heard this, and they all looked out of the hall curiously, wanting to see the demeanor of this Dali prince. After a while, Duan Siming walked into the main hall with a smile and gestured to the hundreds of officials in the hall. His movements are very standardized, and he has the majesty that a royal family should have, but the bright and smug smile on his face exposes his smug nature.
