Duan Yu smiled lightly and said, "Since Miss A'Zhu is unwilling to keep her promise, then please do as you please!"
With that said, he waved the palace guards to disperse, as if he was letting a few people go.
A'Zhu said in surprise, "His Royal Highness Duan, are you going to let us go?"
Duan Yu said, "Of course we dare not offend King Yan's reputation. Even if Miss A'Zhu wants to leave, will Duan still force her to stay?"
A'Zhu said, "Then A'Zhu will thank Your Highness in advance!"
Not knowing what the other party was up to, she just wanted to leave here as soon as possible. As long as they left Dali Country, they would be safe.
When A'Zhu and his party were about to leave, Duan Yu suddenly shouted "Wait!" ?.?????.???
"What? Your Highness Duan regrets it?"
A'Zhu had known that things were not that simple.
Duan Yu pointed at Gan Baobao and his wife and said, "These two are serious criminals demanded by King Yan. We dare not detain them, and you are the envoys of King Yan. Our Zhennan Palace should treat you warmly, but A'Zhu The girl doesn’t want to stay any longer, so Duan can only come and go as he pleases.”
"It's just that this is Duan's biological mother and the princess of the palace. Please let Miss A'zhu keep her and don't make things difficult for me."
A'Zhu instantly understood that the reason why Duan Yu was acting like this was to keep Dao Baifeng behind and block the escape route for himself and others.
The other party has already been polite enough. If he wants to take Dao Baifeng away by force at this time, I'm afraid it will be true.
Duan Yu, you are such a good person, I didn't expect you to learn how to do tricks... A'Zhu looked at the other party, his eyes changed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"This happened because of me. Dao Baifeng would like to thank you all for your kindness today. I will definitely repay you someday!"
Seeing that they were in trouble, Dao Baifeng did not want to drag them down and walked out of the crowd on her own.
Just when she was about to walk towards Duan Yu, A'Zhu suddenly shouted, "Wait a minute!"
Then he quickly ran over and pulled Dao Baifeng back. The smile on his face returned to before and he said, "Actually, I was just testing His Highness Duan just now. I didn't expect His Highness Duan to be so far-sighted and considerate in handling things, and he was so tolerant. I have offended His Highness many times today, but Your Highness is still willing to let us go. A'Zhu is here to apologize to His Highness!"
As he spoke, he gave the other party a generous gift.
Duan Yu pretended to be polite and returned the favor, "Miss A'Zhu, you are serious!"
After A'Zhu saluted, he said, "I, the Murong family, have always followed the rules. Since I have lost, I have to admit it. According to the previous agreement, we will stay. A'Zhu will send another letter, asking my cousin to come to Dali to redeem the money." Man, what do you think, Your Highness?"
Duan Yu smiled and said, "That's very good. You can feel free to stay in the palace. We will never dare to neglect King Yan's envoy."
A'Zhu said, "A'Zhu trusts His Highness Duan's character. Please send someone to lead the way!"
"Easy to say!"
Duan Yu immediately asked the palace steward to take A'Zhu and others to the North Courtyard to stay temporarily, and ordered people to entertain them.
A'Zhu and Kang Min guarded Dao Baifeng on the left and right, while Zhong Ling and Gan Baobao supported Zhong Wanchou and left together.
When Duan Zhengchun saw this scene, he wanted to chase Dao Baifeng, but was stopped by Duan Yu.
"It's not appropriate to fall out with them for the time being. As long as you keep your mother in the palace, are you afraid that you won't have a chance?"
When Duan Zhengchun heard this, he had no choice but to suppress the anger in his heart and chose to endure it for the time being.
…
"If you have any instructions, just summon us at any time!"
The palace steward left a few maids behind and then retreated.
In the room, Gan Baobao helped Zhong Wanchou to the bed. A'Zhu diagnosed and treated him again. He asked the palace's servants to fetch some herbs and decoct them. He also used some golden sore medicine to stop the bleeding. After working for more than an hour, he finally Saved the other person's life.
"Ling'er, you and your wife should stay here with Master Zhong Gu!"
Zhong Ling said gratefully, "Sister A'Zhu, thank you!"
A'Zhu smiled faintly and then went to another room with Kang Min and Dao Baifeng.
In the closed room, A'Zhu and Kang Min sat aside, while Dao Baifeng sat opposite them without daring to raise his head.
After Kang Min poured A'Zhu a cup of tea, he looked at Dao Baifeng with a smile and said, "The people present are all my sisters, Fu Lang's closest relatives. Madam, there is no need to hide them from us!"
Dao Baifeng glanced at the two girls, thinking that one of them was pretty, lively, and the other charming, a peerless beauty. Murong Fu was really blessed.
But Kang Min asked her to explain, but she didn't know how to say it. After all, her relationship with Murong Fu was too complicated, and even she herself didn't know where to start.
Moreover, the relationship between the two is secondary to their identities.
It's not that Dao Baifeng doesn't trust A'Zhu and the others, it's just that if outsiders find out about her relationship with Murong Fu, she will be fine. At most, she will be accused by thousands of people and reviled by thousands of people. She just needs to find a quiet place to hide from the world. .
But Murong Fu couldn't do it. He was the majestic King of Yan in the Song Dynasty, and he would be the monarch who would revive the Yan Dynasty in the future. There was no room for stains or flaws in his identity. He couldn't harm the other party just because of a momentary thought.
Thinking of this, Dao Baifeng decided not to reveal her relationship with him to anyone, preferring to bear the loneliness alone.
"Thank you both for your help today. Although I have had a few encounters with King Yan, that's all. Pindao is a monk, and I have long since lost all worries about the past in this mortal world!"
Dao Baifeng knows very well that competing for favor in the harem can make people's hearts very evil. Even though the two people in front of her are so kind to her, who can guess their true inner thoughts when they know their faces but not their hearts?
Dao Baifeng knew a lot about Murong Fu, but he had never been in contact with any of the women around him, and had no idea how Murong Fu's confidante got along with each other. Was it friendly? Or are they trying every possible means to compete for favor and then scheming against each other?
She didn't know anything about this. Even though she was familiar with Zhong Ling, she hadn't seen her in almost four or five years. Who knew if Zhong Ling was still the innocent little girl she used to be?
After seeing Duan Zhengchun's shamelessness and being plotted by her own flesh and blood, Dao Baifeng felt very conflicted. She knew clearly that A'Zhu and the others chose to stay to help her, but she just couldn't trust anyone easily anymore.
Unless Murong Fu appeared in front of her now, she would feel alienated from anyone she saw.
Seeing that Dao Baifeng's attitude suddenly became cold, A'Zhu and Kang Min were both stunned for a moment, a little confused.
They tried to ask some questions about Murong Fu, but Dao Baifeng was wary and perfunctory at the same time.
A'Zhu and the others asked for a long time, but gave up after finding no useful information.
"A'Zhu, do you really want to write a letter asking Miss Wang to come and redeem us?"
Seeing A'Zhu writing a letter, Kang Min asked worriedly.
A'Zhu said, "The letter is meant to be written, and it is indeed written to Miss Cousin, but I can't guarantee whether the person coming is Miss Cousin!"
She smiled and quickly wrote a letter. She called the divine eagle and gave some instructions. Then she saw the huge creature fluttering its wings and quickly disappearing from the horizon.
