Chapter 383: Death under Shura's sword, even as a ghost, he is still romantic
With Duan Yu around, Azhu and A Zi's plan failed. Wang Yuyan had a good impression of this brother and felt deep sympathy for him, and finally decided not to let him be caught in the middle, although she also wanted to watch the show at first (neither Lingyue nor Wang Yuyan were unreasonable people, it was only because Lingmeng was too lively that this was possible).
Before, when Duan Yu and Ba Tianshi returned from Gusu City, they reported Mu Wanqing's existence and deeds to Emperor Baoding and Prince Zhennan truthfully. However, Duan Zhengchun was so lenient that he couldn't think of who did it for a moment, which made Emperor Baoding almost go crazy and beat up his own brother.
Later, when he heard Duan Yu say that she and Zhong Ling were sisters, and that Mu Wanqing called Gan Baobao "master uncle", he immediately reacted and called out Qin Hongmian's name. When he mentioned her name, it was Shura Dao, which left everyone in the Dali Duan family speechless.
The pair of sister lovers you found are not good people. One is Shura Dao and the other is Qiao Yaksha. I wonder if they will fight each other because of you?
Let’s not talk about how Duan Zhengchun dealt with Emperor Baoding. Let’s just say that Murong Fu, Wang Yuyan and their group, accompanied by Zhong Wanchou, escorted the gorgeously dressed Qin Hongmian all the way to Dali City, and informed the Dali royal family in advance through the trading company.
As elders, Emperor Baoding and Prince Zhennan naturally could not go out to greet them in person, but Duan Yu did not care about that and went out to greet them for thirty miles. These thirty miles indirectly resolved Duan Zhengchun's little jealous crisis.
You should know that when Emperor Baoding learned that Wang Yuyan had been traveling around under the pretext of traveling a year after her marriage, but had actually returned to Dali, he was actually very happy. He did not hesitate to lose face and personally went to Dao Baifeng to explain the pros and cons.
Although Dao Baifeng was quite unhappy about personally welcoming Duan Zhengchun's illegitimate daughter, she did not dare to show any displeasure to him when she thought of the reputation and strength of the Gusu Murong family, what Murong Fu did in Yazhou Prefecture and the many benefits he brought to the Dali Kingdom, many of which benefited the Baiyi people.
What's more, if I don't show up, won't that little girl be able to act like a young lady in front of the Prince of Zhennan with justification?
She was unhappy with Wang Yuyan's existence, but she couldn't deny her existence, and she didn't want to indulge her existence, so she agreed to return to the Zhennan Palace temporarily. In fact, she was going to give this girl a good beating and let her know who was the mistress of the Zhennan Palace. Even if she, Dao Baifeng, was not in the palace, she still had the final say in the Zhennan Palace.
Haven't you seen that during the many years that Dao Baifeng was in Chongxu Temple, Duan Zhengchun was flirting with many women, but he never brought a woman back to the palace. It was not that he didn't want to, but that he didn't dare and couldn't do so.
It's true that Duan Zhengchun can't control his lower body, but his brain is not really broken. When faced with things that may affect the stability of the Dali Kingdom, he will still choose state affairs first. As long as it does not touch the bottom line, he will indulge himself appropriately.
How to describe him? It can be said that Duan Zhengchun kept jumping on the bottom line of seeking death. The only reason he didn't die was that he was lucky.
However, Duan Yu came out to greet them thirty miles away, representing the younger generation of heirs of the Dali Duan family. After greeting Murong Fu, he also greeted Wang Yuyan and called her "sister" in a public manner, which was considered as a statement of his position.
When everyone heard this name, they had different thoughts in their minds. Wang Yuyan didn't care, but Ah Zhu and Ah Zi were thinking about the pros and cons and what to do next. However, they learned about their life experiences shortly after their marriage, but were quite disappointed with their mother Ruan Xingzhu, and knew that she could not win the fight.
If the mother is not able to do so, the daughters will naturally be implicated as well. Fortunately, they still have a husband who is an upright man. However, as concubines, their status is also very embarrassing. If it is made public, it will probably be a big trouble. There are both pros and cons, and overall the disadvantages outweigh the pros.
Therefore, Azhu and Azi discussed and decided not to reveal their identities, and were even unwilling to reveal them secretly. It was enough for their husband Murong Fu to have a wife, the illegitimate daughter of Prince Zhennan. Having two more concubines would be superfluous and would be unpleasant.
Zhong Wanchou was lukewarm towards Duan Yu, but Duan Yu knew his father had wronged him, so he warmly invited him in and praised the great achievements of the Dali doctor. This made Zhong Wanchou's ugly face almost burst into laughter, and he was just about to swear brotherhood with him. "You are a good boy, much better than your lustful and playboy father. If you ascend to the throne and take power, just come to me if you need anything. I, the Horse King God, recognize you as my little brother."
Murong Fu frowned when he heard this. Since you acknowledge him as your brother, can you also acknowledge Duan Zhengchun as your godfather?
Duan Yu found an opportunity to leave Zhong Wanchou and went to Murong Fu, explaining the next arrangements in detail. Although Murong Fu was no longer the prefect of Yazhou, he still held an honorary position and a title in the Song Dynasty court, and could be considered a nobleman. Since he came to visit them in such a swagger, the Dali Kingdom naturally had to treat him with courtesy.
At least it shows that kung fu needs to be done right, right?
"Mr. Duan, my cousin has gained something on the road and has prepared a generous gift for the Prince of Zhennan, but..." Wang Yuyan finally felt a little reluctant and couldn't bear to see Duan Yu caught in the middle, so she gave a slight reminder.
Duan Yu smiled and said, "Mr. Murong, you are too polite. If it is a gift that will benefit the Dali Kingdom, it should be given to my uncle. Sister Yuyan has already been secretly included in the Dali Kingdom's family tree, but it is not appropriate to make her name public now. I believe Mr. Murong does not want the Song Dynasty court to know that his legal wife is the princess of the Dali Kingdom."
Seeing Murong Fu's strange expression, Wang Yuyan smiled and covered her mouth, thinking that it was a step up for a Viscount of the Song Dynasty to marry a princess of the Dali Kingdom, but if the Emperor of the Yan Kingdom married a princess of the Dali Kingdom, that would be different. On the contrary, her own status would be slightly lower.
"This gift is a private gift, not from the King of Zhennan of Dali, so no one else is suitable to accept it." Murong Fu's words made Duan Yu slightly stunned. He glanced at the strange expressions of the others, and his heart was secretly startled. He hurriedly asked in detail.
"Master Duan, have you ever heard the words of your father, the King of Zhennan, 'If one dies under the Shura Blade, even as a ghost he will be a romantic man?'" Murong Fu reminded him of this, and Duan Yu's expression suddenly became extremely miserable. He leaned in close to Murong Fu and whispered, "Did you capture Qin Hongmian, the Shura Blade? Is she really the mother of that masked woman in black, Mu Wanqing? Is that Miss Mu really my father's illegitimate daughter, another sister of mine?"
Hearing Duan Yu mention another sister, Wang Yuyan, A'zhu and A'zi couldn't help laughing out loud, thinking to themselves that you have quite a few sisters, but there are two who are not suitable for you to know. Currently, only Wang Yuyan and Mu Wanqing can be made public, and even little Zhong Ling can only be semi-public. They already know what they should know, and it is better not to let them know what they shouldn't know.
Seeing Murong Fu quietly pointing to a carriage behind him, Duan Yu said with a sad face, "Why do I have such a miserable life? Master Murong, you are still a noble but not famous prince of Dali State. How can you really let your father-in-law down like this?"
Murong Fu answered very seriously: "If I can make my cousin happy, even if it makes the Prince of Zhennan feel a little uncomfortable, I think it is worth it."
Duan Yu: After hearing these words, should I be happy that you dote on my sister, or should I mourn for my father? Alas, as the eldest son in the family, it is really difficult for me.
Zhong Wanchou: What’s the matter? Are you going to go back on your word and not let me, Zhong, watch Duan Zhengchun being torn apart by a woman?
Ah Zhu, Ah Zi: If you could bring your cunning and sinister wife along, it would be a really good show. Without her to instigate things, this drama would be much less exciting.
Zhong Wanchou: If you don’t mention my wife, we can still be friends.
Everyone: Aren’t you the one who likes to show off your wife the most in Gusu College?
Zhong Wanchou: My wife, is it wrong for me to show off? But you guys can't keep saying it. Duan Zhengchun alone is already giving me a headache. It took the Murong brothers a lot of effort to help me destroy his evil intentions. If another Wang Zhengchun shows up, Murong Zhengchun will be killed.
Murong Fu: I suspect you are implying something about me, but I have no evidence.
Wang Erlang: I suspect you are doubting my loyalty to my wife, but I have no evidence.
Little Zhong Ling: Daddy, you call Brother Murong "little brother", so doesn't that mean I have to treat you as my equal?
Zhong Wanchou: It doesn’t matter, let’s talk about our own things. I call him little brother, but it doesn’t affect him calling me father-in-law. Don’t worry, my dear daughter. I am a very open-minded father. As long as you don’t offend my wife, everything is fine.
Zhong Ling: Daddy, am I your biological child? Is the saying that parents are truly in love, and their children are gifts true?
Everyone (except Zhong Wanchou): Little Zhong Ling, we can responsibly keep this a secret from you. You are definitely not your father's biological child.
