Chapter 37 - The Toxicology of Duan Yanqing
Duan Zhengchun's anger explained the severity of the situation, and after Dao Baifeng heard the three words Mu Wanqing, the expression on his face became extremely ugly.
"The illegitimate daughter you secretly gave birth to back then?" Dao Baifeng asked with an ashen face. The sound of her teeth grinding could be clearly heard, which was enough to express her degree of anger.
Hearing Dao Baifeng's words, Duan Zhengchun's face also changed. It turned out that after reading the paper slip, he lost his reason and actually forgot that Dao Baifeng was still by his side.
"It's nothing, it's nothing. Let's continue discussing business with the Sect Master Ling." Duan Zhengchun immediately packed up his watch and pretended to be calm as he looked at Ling Xiao.
Seeing that, Dao Baifeng snorted angrily, turned, and left.
After confirming that Dao Baifeng was no longer here, Duan Zhengchun immediately got up and walked in front of Ling Xiao, begging him, "Sect Master Ling, this king knows of your unrivalled martial arts, can you help save Wan Qing for a while?"
"Why is Prince Duan so concerned about this person called Wan Qing? And Princess's expression just now seemed to be very ugly. " Ling Xiao asked, pretending not to know.
Hearing these words, how could Duan Zhengchun not know that Ling Xiao was doing this on purpose, but he had no other choice. Now that the Princess had returned to the palace, how could he dare to go out and save him?
With no other choice, Duan Zhengchun could only explain everything clearly. However, the moment he raised his head, he was stunned.
It turned out that Duan Yu had appeared in the hall at some point in time.
"Yu Er, you, why are you here?" Seeing that, Duan Zhengchun asked in a daze.
Duan Yu was also stunned, it was clear that he had explained everything Duan Zhengchun had said earlier regarding the illegitimate daughter. Including his sister Zhong Ling, it turned out that both Zhong Ling and Mu Wanqing were Duan Zhengchun's illegitimate daughters.
Hearing Duan Zhengchun's words, Duan Yu came back to reality and shook his head: "Nothing, I just came too, and want to apologize to father."
"What are you apologizing for? It's not like you have anything to do here, hurry up and leave! " Duan Zhengchun said helplessly as he held his forehead.
Hearing that, Duan Yu knew that it was not his place to stay, so he bowed and prepared to leave.
Hearing that, Ling Xiao stopped Duan Yu who was about to leave, then looked towards Duan Zhengchun and said indifferently: "Prince Duan, if you want me to go, Mu Wanqing, it won't be difficult, but I need a witness from the imperial family."
Hearing this, Duan Zhengchun couldn't help but frown. After looking at Duan Yu at the side, he asked: "What, you want to bring Yu Er over?"
After all, this is Dali's territory. As a gang leader, although I have a gang supporting me, I cannot do whatever I want. Ling Xiao said with a smile.
"You have to prove that this king can give you the order badge, why do you have to bring Yu Er along?" Duan Zhengchun was extremely confused, but he had no other way.
Ling Xiao would definitely not tell Duan Zhengchun that he wanted to take Duan Yu away. With the things that had happened with Duan Yu, he was afraid that it was not possible for him to escape.
Therefore, Ling Xiao shook his head and said: "Who knows if they will say whether the insignia in my hands is fake or if it's better to have Gongzi Duan accompany me. Saving people is not a joke after all."
Hearing this, Duan Zhengchun could only nod his head: "Alright, but please ensure Yu Er's safety."
"Don't worry Prince Duan." Ling Xiao cupped his hands and said.
Before leaving, Duan Zhengchun had someone prepare a lot of coils for Ling Xiao, and even gave him a royal token, saying: "Take this token, it's convenient for you to travel in Dali, if you encounter any troubles, this token will be able to bring you unexpected convenience."
"Thank you, Prince Duan." Ling Xiao was still a little surprised by Duan Zhengchun's generosity, but since it was given to him for free, he naturally wouldn't be polite.
After taking all these things, Ling Xiao set off with Duan Yu.
"Can your body handle it?" After exiting the palace, Ling Xiao asked Duan Yu.
Although Duan Yu was still exhausted, but his face had already regained some color, and from the looks of it, Dao Baifeng had fed him a lot of food after he returned to the palace.
Duan Yu nodded and replied, "Master, I'm much better now. If I don't go through some intense movements, I should be fine with it."
"Bastard, after going through so much, do you know why I brought you along this time?" Ling Xiao asked.
Duan Yu thought for a while, then said respectfully: "Master, for the sake of letting me come out to learn."
"Hmm, he's not that stupid after all. Your father's brain isn't well thought out. If you continue to stay in the palace, your future will be dark." Ling Xiao shook his head and said.
Hearing this, Duan Yu's face was filled with black lines, but he didn't dare say anything. After all, he was his own Master, and in his impression, his own father wasn't that good.
Because he was afraid that the appearance of the Yue Lao San and Yun Zhonghe would cause a huge commotion in the Dali Imperial City, Ling Xiao did not allow the two of them to enter the Imperial Palace.
After meeting up, Yun Zhonghe saw Duan Yu who was beside Ling Xiao, and asked puzzledly: "Why is he still following us?"
These words caused Duan Yu to shrink back in fear. Instead, he raised his eyebrows and asked: "What, you're not going to call me Master?"
Hearing that, Yun Zhonghe swallowed his saliva, and said with some lingering fear: "Yes, Master."
"Yup, Duan Yu came out to learn from us, you guys teach him more, although he is your Eldest Brother, his martial arts are very poor, just do it, if you guys can't handle this small matter, then ask him." Ling Xiao said indifferently.
Facing such a sudden mission, Yue Lao San and Yun Zhonghe looked at each other with helpless and bitter smiles on their faces.
"Master, where are we going this time?" Yue Lao San asked.
Ling Xiao thought for a while, then said: "Go and find your former boss."
Hearing this, both Yue Lao San and Yun Zhonghe were so frightened that they held onto their reins tightly, not daring to move an inch.
Seeing that, Ling Xiao could only say: "What are all of you doing?"
"Master, let's not go."
"Yeah, this isn't a good idea."
Yun Zhonghe and the Yue Lao San girl answered hesitantly.
Hearing that, Ling Xiao could not help but snort: "You really are afraid of death, why was it that when I first saw you, I didn't see you guys this scared? Do you think that I can't defeat it? "
"No, of course not." Yue Lao San and Yun Zhonghe quickly shook their hands.
"Don't worry, this time it's none of your business, as long as you watch over Duan Yu from the side, and give him pointers." After Ling Xiao finished, he rode on his horse and continued forward.
Seeing that, Yun Zhonghe and the Yue Lao San sighed at the same time and followed along helplessly.
Ling Xiao knew that the reason Mu Wanqing had been captured was definitely because of Duan Yanqing, the leader of the Four Great Evildoers.
