Knowing Duan Yuqing's identity, both Mu Yangling and Fan Zijin felt a heavy weight in their hearts. Although Dali is small and their strength has always been small, they did not dare to ignore it. They quickly wrote six hundred miles of urgent documents to send to the capital. go.

After the documents were sent out, Fan Zijin had the leisure to stir up crooked thoughts.

If Duan Yuqing's complaint is true, Dali must be in chaos at this time. The Gao clan is powerful, and it is only a matter of time before the domestic chaos is quelled. Before that, they had plotted against Qiannan. Once the Gao clan gained power, the two countries could not afford a war. The usual small friction will certainly not be less.

The most important thing is that Haoran has always had plans for Dali, otherwise he would not go to Dali himself this time, if he collides with the powerful Gao family, sooner or later a war will happen.

Now Fan Zijin saw a scene of war in front of him. He was not afraid of war, but he was a little worried about logistics. He was not capable of providing combat preparations for the army, so it would be best to resolve it peacefully.

Originally, Fan Zijin wanted to use his status as a big cousin to expand his business to prepare for future wars, but now the arrival of Princess Dali has opened up a way for him.

Princess Dali is a double-edged sword. If it is not used well, it will only give Gao an excuse to start a war and advance the war between the two countries. But if it is used well, they may be able to take Dali without a single soldier. Incorporated into Daqi to reproduce the glory of Emperor Shizong of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

These are just fleeting thoughts, and the matter is confidential. It is not easy for him to discuss it with his staff, so Fan Zijin consulted with Mu Yangling, "I would like to ask the emperor to marry Princess Dali at a discount, so that her identity can be put on the table. On the bright side, Gao's excuse for questioning has been broken, and their perverse actions have been known to the world."

The words were very righteous, but Mu Yangling only heard the first and most critical point. She widened her eyes and asked, "What about the queen and Xiaobao?"

Fan Zijin rolled his eyes and said, "The emperor's harem, the three palaces, the six courts and the seventy-two concubines, he has only conferred one queen. Dali is just a small country, and one concubine is enough. The key is, do you think the two sides are married?" , how likely are we to take Dali peacefully?"

Fan Zijin's purpose was nakedly exposed to Mu Yangling.

"..." Mu Yangling was speechless for a while, before saying quietly after a long time: "Looking at the influence of the Duan Clan in Dali, if Duan Yuqing is willing and able to command the Duan Clan's influence in Dali, then it shouldn't be a problem to regain Dali .”

Dali has always been a vassal state of the Central Plains, so it has a sense of belonging to the Central Plains, and it will not be more hostile to the Central Plains like Jurchen and others. In addition, Emperor Sejong of the Da Zhou had merged Dali into the Da Zhou and changed it to Dali County. In fact, Dali was only a state and county in the Tang Dynasty, and it was not until the later Tang Dynasty that the Duan family separated it and became an independent country of Dali.

It has only been more than 20 years since Dali was separated from Dazhou. Now there must be many people in Dali who remember the unified Dazhou. It is very feasible to merge Dali into the Central Plains again.

Mu Yangling's thoughts changed, and he also had a crooked thought, saying: "If you can't do it, you will ruin the reputation of the Gao family. The Duan family is not only the royal family of Dali, but also the pillar of the Chongsheng Temple, and the Chongsheng Temple belongs to the Dali Kingdom. The state religion has countless believers, Gao Shi hunted down and killed Princess Dali and spread the word, those politicians who weighed interests can ignore it, and I am afraid that no one among ordinary people will stand on Gao Shi’s side.”

"That's right," Fan Zijin said with a boxing fist, "Although the Duan family is weak, there are advantages to being weak. Since the Duan family was separated from Dazhou, their taxes have always been relatively light, and they are very popular among the people. Although the Gao family is powerful , but the reputation is much worse, if we add another fire to this..."

Fan Zijin smiled and said: "Their princess married the emperor, and we will go to the frontier again. Even if the dignitaries in Dali were originally on the side of the Gao family, they have to reconsider at this time. Haoran, let him come back quickly."

Mu Yangling frowned slightly, "We haven't asked Duan Yuqing what he means..."

Seeing that she was worried about Duan Yuqing, Fan Zijin was unhappy and said, "A Ling, don't forget which country you are from, and this is the best ending for Princess Dali, otherwise, she will be in our hands, or she will be reduced to us." The bargaining chip with the Gao family, or being sent back to Dali as a puppet to fight with the Gao family, no matter which one is, with her current injuries, she will die soon, but entering the harem of the big cousin is different , the queen is virtuous, and she will treat her well only because she is the princess of Dali. The living environment is good, at least she will not die early, and maybe she is lucky enough to give birth to a grandson of the Duan family who has royal blood. The direct lineage of the clan has been passed down."

Mu Yangling was silent, and Fan Zijin warned her: "Don't send people away with mercy, and ruin a good deck of cards."

Mu Yangling glared at him angrily, "Am I the kind of person who doesn't care about my family and country? But don't think about passing on Duan's bloodline. She was seriously injured, her uterus was injured, and she will never have children again. .”

Fan Zijin was surprised, "It's so serious?"

Mu Yangling nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Contact Haoran first, and ask him about the situation on his side. I will persuade Duan Yuqing."

At this time, Qi Haoran, who was missed by the two of them, had just followed the motorcade from Bisha Miao Village to Dali through southern Guizhou. The Ming passerby who came to pick up the motorcade glanced at the motorcade and asked Sang Linji suspiciously, "Third Prince? What happened this time?" Are you coming?"

Sang Linzhong has always been in charge of the transactions between them. Although he also knows Sang Linji, Sang Linji exists as a deputy most of the time. This is the first time he has come forward as the person in charge.

Sang Linji explained with an unchanged expression: "My second brother is busy with affairs, so I will be responsible for all future transactions with Dali."

Ming Luren rolled his eyes and asked, "I wonder how Chief Sanglin is doing recently?"

Sang Linji's eyes darkened, and he said, "My father is still in good health, thank you for your concern."

But Ming Luren still noticed the change in Sang Linji's eyes, smiled slightly, turned around and asked people to ask the people in Miao Village about Chief Sang Linji's physical condition.

Chief Sang Lin's health is indeed not in good condition. Since meeting Qi Haoran, his energy and spirit seem to have been drained at once, and his health has declined rapidly. He is very dissatisfied with Sang Lin Zhong's arrogance and self-assertion Recently, he was locked in the main building where he worked, and he was not allowed to go out easily.

These news are naturally closed, so the Miao people in the Miao village only know that the second prince lives in the main building recently, and the chief's health is getting worse and worse, and he often sees the Miao doctor recently.

The people of Minglu got the news and finally came to the conclusion that chief Sang Lin might not be in good health, and the position of chief may be passed on to the second prince, Sang Linzhong. That's why Sang Linzhong moved into the main building, and the transaction was handed over to the second prince. Sang Linji is in charge.

Although Ming Luren is only a guide and guide, he is not lacking in observation and knowledge. After he came to this conclusion, he did not neglect Sang Linji. After all, Sang Linzhong will not be able to take charge of this in the future if he wants to become a chief Well, since Sang Linji came in person this time, I'm afraid that this aspect will be handed over to Sang Linji in the future. It's better for the county magistrate to take care of it now.

Thinking about it this way, people from Minglu became more polite to Sang Linji.

And Qi Haoran has been mixed in the convoy, writing down the route calmly.
