The Heavens: Reborn Xu Zhu, Recognizing His Father at the Beginning

Chapter 168 Negotiation
Hearing this, Dao Baifeng looked miserable, and there was a lingering sadness on his face.

Duan Yu saw that his mother's expression was not right, so he hurried to her side.

"Mother! Mother! What's wrong with you, Mother?"

Seeing this scene, a group of Dali retainers hurried to Dao Baifeng's side regardless of the confusion in their minds.

"Princess! Concubine! Where is the prince? Wasn't he still by my side before?"

"Why did the princess appear by my side? Could it be that I was plotted by a traitor and came here unknowingly?"

At this moment, Dao Baifeng slowly held her son's hand, and said firmly to Duan Yu.

"Boy, go quickly, go to your uncle quickly, and send this letter from your father. Don't open it without authorization."

Dao Baifeng saw that his child had forgotten about the girl Wang, so he didn't dare to mention it, but asked him to send the letter to Emperor Baoding as soon as possible.

Seeing his mother's serious expression, Duan Yu also understood the urgency of the matter, and hurried to the nearby town with a group of Dali's retainers with the saber white phoenix.

This is the territory of Dali, which is the hometown of Duan Yu and his party.

After rushing to the nearby post station to requisition more than ten fast horses, the group hurried towards the Dali Palace.

Traveling day and night, whenever the crowd encountered soldiers along the way, Zhu Danchen would take the lead in revealing his identity and changing mounts to avoid exhaustion of the horses.

In this way, at dusk a few days later, a group of people entered the south gate of Dali City with a tired look.

Dali City is densely populated, the streets and alleys are paved with bluestone floor tiles everywhere, and the market and wine shops are quite prosperous.

"Back to Dali, I feel a lot more at ease. The subordinates will go to the palace as soon as possible to find the imperial doctor to heal the concubine's injuries. My son, please bring the letter to the palace to meet the saint."

Duan Yu couldn't help but nodded slowly when he heard the persuasion from Zhu Danchen and others.It must have something to do with his father that his mother valued the letters in his hands so much.

Thinking of this, Duan Yu briefly exchanged a few words, and the group split into two groups.

Duan Yu, Dali Sangong and others entered the palace to meet Emperor Baoding, while the four guards of the palace took Princess Zhennan to look for the imperial doctor.

In the Imperial Study Room of the Dali Palace, Duan Zhengming had just finished handling government affairs and was reading Buddhist scriptures to cultivate his body and mind when the eunuch outside knocked on the door.

"Your Majesty, the Prince of Zhennan has an urgent matter to see you."

"Oh? Yu'er is back, let him in quickly."

The eunuch retreated quietly, Duan Yu hurried into the imperial study room, and bowed to Duan Zhengming.

"Uncle, please save father."

"Your Majesty forgives the crime, the ministers and others are weak in protection, and let His Royal Highness King Zhennan fall into the hands of others."

Upon hearing this, Duan Zhengming was startled, and looked at his nephew and San Gong of Dali Kingdom.

"What's going on here? Whose hands did my brother fall into?"

The three men of Dali looked at each other with a confused look on their faces, and even Duan Yu himself was confused for a while.

"Uncle, my nephew didn't know either. My nephew only remembered that my father was caught by someone, and then I was confused for a while. When I woke up again, I had already arrived in Dali territory."

Dali Sangong also nodded, the situation of the three of them is the same as that of Duan Yu.

Hearing this, Duan Zhengming frowned. The Sangong of Dali made great achievements for him in the past, and Duan Yu was even his nephew, honest since childhood.

The few of them are determined not to deceive themselves. Could it be that they have been under some kind of magic spell?
"Don't worry, do you have any clues?"

At this time, Duan Yu took out the letter from his pocket and presented it to Duan Zhengming.

"Mother concubine said to give this letter to uncle, there may be news of this matter on it. My nephew does not dare to violate mother's order to open it, and I hope uncle will allow it."

Duan Zhengming waved his hand, and Duan Yu immediately opened the letter, but when he saw the notes in the letter, he froze there.

"This... this is impossible! How could this be?"

Seeing that Duan Yu's expression was not right, Duan Zhengming quickly took the letter over and read it word by word.

After a long time, Duan Zhengming sighed quietly, with a hint of helplessness in his expression.

"Injustice, injustice! If this is true, then we can only prepare generous gifts to make amends for others."

After each of the three princes of Dali circulated the letter and confirmed that it was the handwriting of King Zhennan of Dali, they all fell silent.

They can only pretend not to see such things that damage the royal dignity, and they will rot in their stomachs for the rest of their lives.

Duan Zhengchun was first rescued from Duan Yanqing, then met his old lover, and more importantly, Duan Zhengming had another niece.

It's nothing if it's just having an extra niece, but that man's junior is still the son-in-law of the Xixia Kingdom, and he wants to come forward to seek justice for his senior sister.

As a result, Duan Zhengchun was detained, Princess Zhennan was so angry that she fell ill, and Dali was still the one who was wronged, so she was embarrassed to use a knife or a gun.

Fan Hua was silent for a moment, then bowed his head to Duan Zhengming.

"Your Majesty, although this letter does not say where King Zhennan was imprisoned, the quality of the paper is obviously from the Jiangnan generation."

"If you search secretly, you may be able to find the location of King Zhennan."

Duan Yu looked at the contents of the letter over and over again, only to feel that bad memories appeared in his mind, which made him subconsciously want to forget them.

"This matter is not urgent. If the other party is unwilling to release him, there is no guarantee that there will be any disputes. Since this person is Xi Xia's son-in-law, it is not a good idea to use weapons."

"Since the letter says that I will meet you outside Yanmen Pass on the second day of April, then take this opportunity to make amends."

"Hey, in the past, I advised him not to be too promiscuous, but now that something is wrong with him, I hope he can restrain his temper in the future."

Seeing Duan Zhengming's worried face, Ba Tianshi suddenly began to persuade him.

"According to my opinion, this matter is not all a disaster. Since the other party is the younger brother of Xi Xia's son-in-law, he will not be too harsh on the prince, and his life is not in danger."

"However, whether the other party can send Zhennan King back depends on our sincerity."

After a long silence, Duan Zhengming had a headache.

The people of Dali include not only Han people, but also Baiyi people, Duan Zhengchun only married Dao Baifeng as his concubine, there is a reason for this.

Now to accept the other party as a side concubine and make the other party's daughter the princess, this matter cannot be bypassed by Dao Baifeng.

At this moment, Zhu Danchen begged to see him outside the door.As soon as he entered the gate, Zhu Danchen bowed his head and saluted.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Princess Zhennan is in good health, and has taken a rest after taking the medicine to soothe the nerves."

Duan Zhengming nodded slightly, his eyes fell on the absent-minded Duan Yu.

Seeing him traveling day and night, and his clothes were a little dusty, he couldn't help but sigh slightly.

"Yu'er, go back and have a rest, leave this matter to uncle, don't worry about it."

"The same goes for the virtuous brothers. They must be extremely tired after running around day and night. Let's go back and rest first."

After everyone left, Duan Zhengming took off his imperial crown, revealing a bald head.

"I planned to pass it on to Brother Yu, but who would have expected this kind of thing to happen again, it's a troubled time."
