Chapter 51: Walking side by side to reveal a shocking secret
"Are the relatives of the two Engongs in Dali?" Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Yes. Nanjian said.
"In my impression, Dali seems to be a royal family!" said Heilong again, "Isn't it that the relatives of the two Engongs are also members of the royal family?"
"Not only is he a member of the royal family, but he is also the highest member of the royal family!" Ren Siyun suddenly took over the conversation and said proudly.
"Oh, then, it's the king!" asked the black dragon in surprise.
"Yes!" Ren Siyun said again.
"And what's his name?" asked the black dragon.
"There is only one king, do you need to ask?" Ren Siyun said with a smile.
"No!" Heilong flatly denied it, "The two benevolent dukes don't know, two years ago, there was an unprecedented coup d'Γ©tat in Dali, the generalissimo of soldiers and horses at that time, Long Keduo, he took advantage of the trust of the old king Duan Tianfeng, and took advantage of his unpreparedness to carry out a earth-shaking mutiny; one night later, the monarch and the minister transposed, and Long Keduo became the lord of the current Dali country, and the old king Duan Tianfeng is now in the grass, mountains and forests, and there is no daylight...... "Speaking of this, he has burst into tears and can't go on.
Seeing this, Nan Jian asked solemnly:
"Long Daxia, according to what you say, the national lord Duan Tianfeng is not in Dali now!"
"Yes, they are no longer in Dali!" said the black dragon leisurely.
Therefore, Nanjian immediately grabbed the reins and stopped his horse, having the great idea of not wanting to go any further, and when he saw this, the black dragon asked:
"What, Brother Nan doesn't plan to go to Dali again?"
"Yes. Nanjian said, "There is no point in going to Dali again, the old lord is nowhere to be found, and we will go in vain." β
Hearing him say this, Ren Siyun immediately frowned, looking worried! Seeing this, the black dragon suddenly asked them again:
"Then do you want to see the old country lord Duan Tianfeng?"
"Of course I do!" Ren said.
"Oh! That's it!" the black dragon suddenly looked solemn, and it took a long time for him to ask, "What is the relationship between those two ben dukes and the old country lord Duan Tianfeng, and what is the matter with him?"
"I'm his niece, and I have something important to do with him!" Ren Siyun said.
When the black dragon heard this, he looked at them cautiously again, and hesitated for a long time before he said slowly:
"How is it possible, the old lord only has three sons in his life, and he doesn't have half a daughter, how can he have a niece in the Central Plains!"
But Nan Jian was very sensitive, and immediately asked him:
"According to the dragon hero, you say this, it seems that you have an extraordinary relationship with the old country lord Duan Tianfeng!"
"Yes. The black dragon said, "Less than the two ben dukes, I am the plainclothes guard of the old country lord Duan Tianfeng, Long Shan, known as the black dragon!"
"Then you must know my grandfather's whereabouts now!" Hearing him say this, Ren Siyun exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes. "I am his plainclothes guard, of course I know where he is!" said the black dragon, "but ......" he did not continue.
But Nan Jian followed his words and said:
"However, you can't be sure of our identities yet, so you can't rashly take us to see the old country lord Duan Tianfeng!"
"This is the vigilance that every person who is a guardian should be," the black dragon said guiltily, "It's not that I don't trust the two benefactors, but my responsibility is too great!"
"We can understand your feelings, Dragon Hero. Nan Jian said, "Actually, Siyun is not the real granddaughter of the old country lord Duan Tianfeng, his mother is the ...... of Liu Suifeng, a famous swordsmith in Dali."
"Your Excellency is talking about Princess Liu Xiangxiang?" Hearing him speak, before he could finish speaking, Heilong replied first, "And Siyun is the daughter of Princess Liu Xiangxiang of Dali?"
"That's right, my mother is Princess Dali Liu Xiangxiang!" Ren Siyun said.
"Oh, I see. The black dragon said excitedly, "Okay, I'll take the two bengongs to meet someone!"
So, after some communication, the distance between them became farther and closer, and in the end, they became familiar as if they were relatives.
While walking, Nan Jian also had a lot to ask him, so he said this:
"There are a few questions below, I don't know if to ask?"
"Engong asks," said the black dragon, "since you are all sent by Princess Liu Xiangxiang, that is, your own people, there is nothing wrong with asking!"
"Then dare to ask," Nanjian said, "What are the Dragon Heroes and Sapoko doing just now, why are they so secretive!"
"The two benevolent princes don't know anything," said the black dragon, "since Long Keduo usurped the government, the lord of the country has been reduced to recklessness, but our great plan to restore the country has not stopped for a day; in the past two years, we have made up old relations with the Chinese border court through various personal exchanges, and promised to present a batch of 'A Furong' as a gift to Wen Chongxin, the guard of the Chinese border court! And Ji Molong is also the general of Zhenshuo of Dali, and he is also one of the cronies of the new lord Long Keduo. But this man is insatiable, and we want to use his greed to slowly corrupt his will and make him a powerful force to overthrow Roncodo. β
"In other words, if you want to deliver 'Ah Furong' safely to the mansion of Wen Chongxin, the guard of the Chinese border court, you must first pass through them!" Nan Jian said, "And just now, Long Daxia used a huge reward to attract them to participate in this matter and form a long-term friendly cooperative relationship! It also lays a solid foundation for your restoration in the future!"
"Yes. Nan Shaoxia is right!" said the black dragon.
"That being the case, wouldn't we have ruined your big deal just now!" Nan Jian said guiltily.
"How could it be!" said the black dragon, "it is very strange that General Guimoron did not come in person this time; perhaps, this is all a trap set by them in advance, just waiting for us to take the bait! Otherwise, how could they have brought so many elite soldiers and strong generals to come and trade with us." β
"That's the same!" Nan Jian asked, "What should I do about this matter now?"
"I have no choice but to go back to see the lord of the kingdom and make a decision!" said the black dragon, "I really didn't expect to lose two of our right-hand brothers this time!" he said, looking up to the sky and sighing.
"Dragon Hero doesn't have to be sad!" Nan Jian comforted him and said, "Fate is up to heaven and not by man, and no one can predict life or death!"
They walked slowly, talking all the way. Before I knew it, I came to a gloomy dense forest, where no bright moonlight could shine in, and the trees in the forest were very old, very tall, with luxuriant branches and foliage, almost all of which were the kind of big trees that five or six adults could hug hand in hand. Even the horse's hooves on such a boulevard seem to be stepping on cotton wool, loose and soft, because the feet are covered with fallen leaves that have accumulated over the years.
But they did not light torches, for it was the custom of the people who inhabited the place where they lived, and if anyone came into the mountain with torches, they would not hesitate to destroy them as an invading enemy.
But the black dragon's mount was very spiritual and familiar with the path, and as soon as he stepped into it, it would obediently send its master to his own home, when they suddenly heard a nightingale's cry from the depths of the woods.
The desolate cry was particularly terrifying in this dark deep forest, and it also made Ren Siyun involuntarily hug Nanjian tighter, and at the same time, the horse they were riding on no longer dared to step forward after hearing the call.
At this time, the black dragon immediately made a whistle, and after three consecutive rings with the nightingale's cry, there was a sudden light in front of them, and Nan Jian and Ren Siyun were startled. Hurriedly blocked the bright light in front of them with their hands, and when their eyes gradually adapted to the scene in front of them, they were surprised by what they saw!
