Chapter 685： crooked mind

Knowing Duan Yuqing's identity, both Mu Yangling and Fan Zijin had a huge rock in their hearts. Although Dali was a junior and had always been small in strength, they did not dare to ignore it. go.

The documents were sent out, and Fan Zijin only had his leisure time to think about it.

If Duan Yuqing's complaint is true, then Dali's domestic situation must be in chaos at this time. The usual small friction will certainly not be less.

The most important thing is that Haoran has always had plans for Dali, otherwise he wouldn't go to Dali in person this time. If he meets the powerful Gao Clan, war will happen sooner or later.

Now Fan Zijin has a picture of war in front of him. He is not afraid of war, but he is a little worried about logistics. He is not able to provide the army with combat readiness, so it is best to solve it peacefully.

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

Princess Dali is a double-edged sword. If you don't use it well, it will only give Gao an excuse to start a war, so that the war between the two countries will be advanced. But if you use it well, they may be able to take Dali without a single soldier. Incorporated into Daqi and reproduced the splendor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

These are just fleeting thoughts, and the matter is confidential. He is not easy to discuss with his staff, so Fan Zijin asked Mu Yangling to discuss, "I want to ask the emperor to marry Princess Dali, so as to put her identity on the table. On the bright side, the excuse of Gao's questioning is broken, and their perverse actions are known to the world."

said very righteously, but Mu Yangling only heard the first and most crucial point. She widened her eyes and asked, "What about the queen and Xiaobao?"

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

Fan Zijin's purpose was nakedly exposed in front of Mu Yangling.

"..." Mu Yangling was speechless for a while, and it took a long time before he said quietly: "Looking at the influence of Duan's family in Dali, if Duan Yuqing is willing and can command Duan's influence in Dali, then it should not be a problem to recover Dali. "

Dali has always been a vassal of the Central Plains, so the sense of belonging to the Central Plains is not as hostile to the Central Plains as the Jurchen and others. In addition, the Emperor Sejong of the previous Dazhou had merged Dali into the Dazhou and changed it to Dali County. , Dali was only a state and county in the Tang Dynasty, and it was not until the later Tang Dynasty that it was separated by the Duan clan and became the independent kingdom of Dali.

It has only been more than 20 years since Dali went out from Dazhou. Now, there must be many people in Dali who remember the unified Dazhou. If they want to re-integrate Dali into the Central Plains, it is very maneuverable.

Mu Yangling's thoughts turned around, and he also had a crooked mind, 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 Chongsheng Temple, and Chongsheng Temple is the country of Dali. The state religion, there are countless believers, the Gao family hunts down the Dali princess and spreads it out, and those politicians who weigh their interests can not be mentioned, I am afraid that no one among ordinary people will stand on the Gao family's side."

"That's right," Fan Zijin said, punching his fist: "Although the Duan clan is weak, weakness has the advantage of being weak. Since the Duan clan left Da Zhoufen, their taxes have always been relatively light, and they are very popular among the people. Although the Gao clan is powerful. , but the reputation will be much worse, if we add a fire to it..."

Fan Zijin said with a smile: "Their princess married the emperor, and we will be on the border again. Even if the powerful people in Dali were on Gao's side, they have to reconsider at this time. I will give the emperor a discount and contact us again. Haoran, let him come back quickly."

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

Seeing that she was worried about Duan Yuqing, Fan Zijin said unhappily: "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 become us. The bargaining chips of trading with Gao, or being sent back to Dali as a puppet to compete with Gao, no matter which kind, with her current injuries, she will have a short life, but entering the harem of her eldest cousin is different. , the queen is virtuous, she will treat her well just because she is the princess of Dali, the living environment is good, at least she will not die prematurely, maybe she will be lucky enough to give birth to the grandson of the Duan family who has royal blood, anyway, they will be Duan Shi's direct bloodline has been passed down."

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

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

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

Mu Yangling nodded slightly and said solemnly: "Contact Haoran first and ask him about his situation. I will persuade Duan Yuqing."

At this time, Qi Haoran, who was missed by the two, had just followed the motorcade from Bisha Miao Village across Qiannan and entered Dali. The passerby who came to pick up the motorcade glanced at the motorcade and asked Sang Linji doubtfully, "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, most of the time Sang Linji exists as a deputy, and this is the first time he has come forward as the person in charge.

Sang Linji explained with a calm expression: "My second brother is busy with business, so I will be responsible for future transactions with Dali."

Ming passerby rolled his eyes and asked, "I wonder how is Chief Sanglin's body recently?"

Sang Linji's eyes darkened slightly and said, "My father is still healthy, thank you for your concern."

But the passers-by still noticed the change in Sanglinji's eyes, smiled slightly, turned around and asked people to inquire about the physical condition of Chief Sanglin with the people in Miao Village.

Chief Sanglin's health is indeed not very good. Since he met Qi Haoran, his energy seems to have been drained all of a sudden, and his health has declined rapidly. He is very dissatisfied with Sang Linzhong's arrogance and self-assertion. , recently locked the person in the main building where he worked, and easily prevented him from going out.

These news are naturally closed, so the Miao people in 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 Miao doctors recently.

The Minglu people got the news and finally came to the conclusion that Chief Sanglin's health is not good. The position of chief may have to be passed on to the second prince, Sang Linzhong. Therefore, Sang Linzhong will move into the main building, and the transaction will be handed over to Sang Linzhong. Sandrinj is in charge.

Although Mingluren is only a person who leads the way, he is not lacking in observation and insight. After he came to this conclusion, he did not slow down Sang Linji. After all, Sang Linzhong wants to become the chief, and he can no longer be personally responsible for this in the future. , Since Sang Linji came in person this time, I am afraid that this aspect will be handed over to Sang Linji in the future.

Thinking of this, Minglu people are a little more polite to Sang Linji.

And Qi Haoran was always in the convoy, quietly memorizing the route.
