In the main hall.
Duan Changge's face was expressionless, and the guards came to report that the prodigal son in front of him had promised to help recover the Tiger and Wolf Army. I asked him if he believed it, but he actually didn't believe it at all.
He is just a prodigal son, how can he regain the tiger and wolf army?
If the Tiger and Wolf Army had been able to recover so easily, then he would have recovered it long ago, why would he have waited until today?
However, it was about the Tiger and Wolf Army. No matter what, he was willing to listen and wouldn't waste much time. If the other party was just talking nonsense, then...
"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince of Dali."
Lin Bai cupped his hands in a symbolic gesture, which couldn't be said to be more respectful.
The corners of Duan Changge's eyes twitched, but when he thought about the prodigal son in front of him, he didn't bother to take offense. He believed that he was not an ordinary prince, and there was no point in using his status to dominate others, let alone the Tiger and Wolf Army.
"Young Master Li, you're welcome. Are you still used to coming to Dali?"
He greeted politely.
Lin Bai said: "His Royal Highness is indeed generous to others, unlike some servants who only rely on others' power."
Jiang Yanxing's eyes were beating wildly, but how could he dare to have an attack at this time?
Duan Changge smiled but said: "They are also concerned about the safety of this palace. If there is anything wrong, please let me know."
"I heard from my servant that Master Li's special request to see me is related to the Tiger and Wolf Army?"
He obviously didn't want to get too entangled with Lin Bai and kept straight to the point.
It's too disgraceful to meet such a prodigal son.
Lin Bai glanced around pretending to be mysterious, as if he was afraid that outsiders would hear him.
Duan Changge smiled, then waved his hand, and the surrounding servants immediately retreated, leaving only a few people, "Young Master Li can now say, these are the people around me."
Lin Bai pretended to be embarrassed and smiled, and said: "His Highness the Crown Prince is laughing at, but actually I am here to make a deal with His Highness the Crown Prince."
"At the same time, this young master also comes here in accordance with the order of His Majesty."
"oh?"
Duan Changge said oh, but there was no trace of surprise on his face. He asked, "I wonder what deal Mr. Li wants to make with me. What does King Wanxiang want to tell me?"
Lin Bai smiled and said: "My intention towards Your Majesty is very clear. Nothing can happen to the princess, and the majesty of Wanxiang Kingdom cannot be damaged."
Duan Changge said: "That's all?"
Needless to say, he knew this, and it was also a tacit understanding between him and Ling Shanyue. Ling Xiyu was the Princess of Wanxiang after all, and the face of Wanxiang Kingdom must be given to her.
This is tantamount to saying that he wants to show off in front of Princess Zhenbei, at least to show that King Wanxiang has tried his best.
Duan Changge looked as expected.
He probably guessed the reason why the other party was so arrogant before.
After all, Princess Zhenbei is the sister of King Wanxiang. King Wanxiang has nothing to say that is unjustifiable, so letting a prodigal son come to stir things up can be regarded as taking care of Princess Zhenbei's emotions.
"What about the deal? What deal does Mr. Li want to make with me? Is it related to the Tiger and Wolf Army?"
Duan Changge was obviously most concerned about the Tiger and Wolf Army, so he asked directly.
In fact, he was getting a little impatient.
But the great talent was very calm, "His Royal Highness is indeed wise. This is what I want to say. In fact, I have another identity."
Duan Changge was stunned for a moment, "Another identity?"
"good!"
Lin Bai said, "To be fair to His Highness the Crown Prince, in fact, my young master and Princess Rongrong have been engaged in marriage since childhood. It was my grandfather, the Duke of Qing Dynasty, who decided to marry each other."
"The reason why I am here with my aunt is precisely for this reason."
A flash of surprise flashed in Duan Changge's eyes. Thinking about it carefully, the possibility is indeed very high. The relationship between the two families has always been very good. The same is true for King Zhenbei and General Zhenyuan of Wanxiang Kingdom. They have been advancing and retreating together in the face of leaving the DPRK for so many years.
Of course, he didn't care at all whether it was true or false. What he cared about was the Tiger and Wolf Army, and he immediately asked: "What does this have to do with the transaction?"
Lin Bai said: "Of course it's relevant. I think His Highness the Crown Prince doesn't care about Princess Rongrong's life or death, right? She's just a woman and can't do anything. What's important is Duan Zhenglong and Duan Weifeng."
"As long as the two of them are gone, the Tiger and Wolf Army will naturally belong to His Highness the Crown Prince."
Duan Changge's eyes flashed slightly, "Keep talking!"
Lin Bai continued: "Today, on behalf of His Majesty the State of Wanxiang, I came to the Crown Prince to ask for someone. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was kind and handed Duan Rongrong to me. This not only took into account my face to His Majesty, but also showed the Crown Prince's broad-mindedness. He also allowed me to stay with my aunt." The right to speak is more important in front of you.”
"Before coming, I tested my aunt's bottom line. I can hand over the Tiger and Wolf Army, but I have to keep Duan Weifeng and Duan Rongrong."
"After Duan Rongrong is fine, His Highness the Crown Prince can release the news. As long as Duan Weifeng hands over the Tiger Wolf Army and cooperates with the investigation, there will be no further pursuit. I will try my best to persuade him. If Duan Weifeng does so, then His Highness the Crown Prince will naturally handle it."
Duan Changge said: "What if he doesn't do it?"
Lin Bai said: "He will do it because he has no choice, and it is better not to do it. Leave it to me. He believes in me. It is easy to deal with."
Duan Changge was startled for a moment, "You?"
"certainly!"
Lin Bai said, "Why does Your Highness the Prince think I want to save Princess Rongrong? With Duan Weifeng gone, the property of Zhenbei Palace will naturally belong to me, the Prince of Zhenbei Palace."
"My aunt still has many properties in Vientiane Kingdom. As for the ones in Dali..."
There was a trace of greed in the great talent's eyes and a silly smile on his face.
Duan Changge's eyes flickered. Are you even coveting the property of Zhenbei Palace in Dali? Sure enough, greedy enough.
He immediately smiled and said: "If you really succeed, why not leave it to you."
Lin Bai looked overjoyed, "His Royal Highness is indeed generous. I will definitely not let His Highness down."
Duan Changge's eyes were deep and he asked, "Why do you do this? Is this your intention or the intention of the Qing government?"
Lin Bai said: "Your Highness, do you think there is any difference? Duan Zhenglong cannot be saved, and the same goes for Duan Weifeng. My intention to Your Majesty is to take Princess Rongrong back."
"Since it is destined to be impossible to keep, and this young master is engaged to Princess Rongrong, is it not too much to strive for more benefits for yourself?"
"The Duke of the Qing Dynasty also wants to maintain a good relationship with His Highness the Crown Prince. My father, General Zhenyuan, is also looking forward to harvesting the southwest together with Dali."
Duan Changge had a smile in his eyes, "I am also looking forward to it, and I am even more looking forward to your performance. I like greedy people, but you have to know what should be taken and what should not be taken. The Tiger and Wolf Army..."
He paused as he spoke.
Lin Bai didn't understand and said quickly: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is too worried. Even if His Highness the Crown Prince gives it to me, the Tiger and Wolf Army would not dare to take it away, and they will not be able to take it away."
Duan Changge said: "They say Mr. Li is a prodigal. It seems the rumors are wrong."
Lin Bai smiled and said, "His Royal Highness, you are joking. Li is just a prodigal. Unfortunately, the Qing government is too poor, so he can only find his own solution. He is not as respected as His Highness, who has a high status and is rich all over the world."
"Now I am going to marry the most noble princess from the Li Dynasty, congratulations!"
"I heard that this princess is extraordinary and that she is a goddess. Lin Qingfeng even wrote a poem to praise her."
oh?
Duan Changge was stunned for a moment, "What poem?"
…
