Everyone present was shocked when they heard the last sentence.
Brothers Duan Zhengchun and Duan Zhengming also had uncertain expressions.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Zhao Mu continued: "But I think this is just a rumor. After all, the officers of the Song Dynasty government who hunted down 'Evil Guanmannying' are already dead, and the Song Dynasty government also roughly estimated the wounds on their bodies. Judgment. There is no substantive evidence for this matter. Moreover, Yiyangzhi is a martial arts secretly passed down by the Duan family in Dali. The man was disabled, so he was not a member of the Duan family, but the martial arts he used was similar to Yiyangzhi. That’s all.”
At this time, Duan Zhengming asked: "Young Master Zhao knows so much about the Song Dynasty government. I wonder if Mr. Zhao has contacts with the Song Dynasty government?"
Zhao Mu looked at Duan Zhengming, then respectfully clasped his fists and saluted, and said: "I dare not deceive Emperor Baoding. I have some connections with the officials of the Song Dynasty. However, I ask Emperor Baoding's forgiveness. I cannot talk about this in detail for the time being. But your Majesty, you can rest assured. Song Dynasty and Dali are good neighbors to each other, and I, Zhao Mu, have received kindness from Princess Zhennan. I came to Dali alone just to find someone on the orders of my master, and I have no evil intentions. I will do my best to rescue the prince."
Zhao Mu now points out his identity, which is just to add a layer of insurance to himself.
Zhao Mu only talked about official families, but the emperors of the Song Dynasty were also called "official families". Whether the official families he mentioned were from official backgrounds or royal backgrounds has always been elusive. Since arriving here, everyone in Dali has been very hostile to me, so it is better to throw away my identity now.
When Dao Baifeng heard Zhao Mu reveal his identity, he couldn't help but feel a ripple in his heart. She originally thought that Zhao Mu was just a young master from a martial arts family, but she didn't expect that he actually had connections with Zhao Song's government. Previously, Dao Baifeng felt that Zhao Mu had defiled her, and she was at a great loss. But if Zhao Mu is really a member of the Song Dynasty clan, she feels that the other party has not insulted her.
Dao Baifeng looked at her husband Duan Zhengchun beside her. Just allow him to have three wives and four concubines outside, but not allow her to raise a considerate pretty boy?
The Third Duke of Dali also restrained his hostility when he heard Zhao Mu reveal his identity.
Although he is reluctant to admit it, if the young man in front of him is really a member of the Zhao Song clan, it is understandable that he should retain some dignity of the Song Dynasty clan in front of the emperor of Dali.
Ba Tianshi's words softened at this time, and he asked: "Just now Mr. Zhao said that we need to outsmart him. How to outsmart him?"
Zhao Mu looked at the Three Dukes of Dali, and then said: "The plank road was built openly and secretly to Chencang. There are many masters in the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations now. Since Duan wants to fight in the world, he cannot mobilize troops and horses to quell the chaos. We are not the same as the situation in the valley. I understand very well that it is better to outwit them than to confront them head-on. What the other party respects is only the lives of the Crown Prince and the Princess."
"I am not talented, but I can guarantee that as long as I am sent to the Crown Prince, no one can harm him at all. But before, His Majesty said that the Crown Prince was trapped in an iron prison, and the green-robed monster The guest will personally take care of it. Moreover, since I injured Yun Zhonghe before, the four villains will definitely be alert. If I show up and go, it may be counterproductive."
At this time, Zhao Mu took out a topographic map he simply drew from his arms.
Zhao Mu said: "Our top priority right now is to rescue the Crown Prince, and then join forces with all of us to fight against the four villains. Therefore, rescue is the top priority, and attack is the bottom priority. This is what I think. Let's first send a group of people to attract the four villains. No matter what you do, all you need to do to attract the attention of the evil villain is to attract them all. The other group of people used earthwork to dig a tunnel, and then we rescued the prince and the princess from this tunnel. As long as the prince and the princess are saved, then I will rush out of the prison door, cooperate with the people outside, and strive to eliminate the four evil people."
Hearing the word 'annihilate', Duan Zhengming said at this moment: "Oh! What we did on this trip is mainly to save Yu'er and save the face of my Duan family. As for the other things, Mr. Zhao doesn't need to worry too much. After all, Those four villains have great martial arts skills, and I have fought against that Qing Pao Ke, that man has extremely high martial arts skills, Mr. Zhao does not need to take risks for the sake of my Duan family."
Duan Zhengming is a benevolent king, and although Duan Yanqing is evil, he is still a direct descendant of the Duan family. He wanted to bring Duan Yanqing back and then bring him to Tianlong Temple for the elders of the Duan family to deal with, instead of dying in the hands of outsiders.
Zhao Mu knew the inside story and understood what Duan Zhengming meant. He said, "Yes, if the prince cannot be rescued, then it is all empty talk."
At this time, Hua Hegen said excitedly: "It's true that heroes have the same idea. Brother Fan also thought of this method before. He wanted us to sneak into the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations, dig a tunnel, and lead to the stone chamber where the prince was imprisoned, and then God We rescued him without knowing it. And with Mr. Zhao escorting him, even if he is discovered, we will have enough time to take the prince away. "
Seeing Hua Hegen's excited look, both Batianshi and Fan Hua knew that their eldest brother, who was born as a "golden captain", was extremely anxious again.
After everyone discussed it, the plan was finalized.
Gao Shengtai led Dali's Shence Army and the Royal Forest Army surrounded the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations. Duan Zhengchun and his wife went outside the valley to hold back Zhong Wanchou, Qin Hongmian and others.
Dali Sangong and Zhao Mu dug tunnels to the stone house to rescue Duan Yu. As for the Huang-browed Monk, he followed the original storyline and went to Duan Yanqing to play chess and then held him back.
Without further ado, after the agreement was reached, everyone started taking action.
After Zhao Mu and Dali Sangong arrived outside the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations, they immediately dug a tunnel leading to the stone house under the command of Hua Hegen.
Fan Hua, who had always been scheming, looked at the busy Zhao Mu and suddenly asked: "Master Zhao, as a descendant of a phoenix, it is really wronging you to let you do such a thing with rough people like us."
Zhao Mu replied smoothly: "It's nothing..." But then Zhao Mu realized that Fan Hua was testing his bottom. Then he quickly closed his mouth.
Seeing Zhao Mu's embarrassment, the three people covered in mud burst out laughing.
At this time, Hua Hegen, who was checking the direction with a compass, said: "Master Zhao, the four of us are brothers in the same pit now. I am not afraid of the jokes of my younger brothers. Although Lao Hua is now the Situ of Dali Kingdom, ranking among the three princes. But Before, I was just a 'country master' who stole graves and dug up graves. The rules of our industry are that as long as you fall into a trap, you will be brothers of life and death. Lao Hua has revealed his old background to you, little brother. You, too, To reciprocate the favor, tell me what exactly you are doing in our Dali country?"
Ba Tianshi also stopped what he was doing at this time and said: "Little brother, you don't have to be suspicious. We all believe that little brother you are a good man, but little brother is aloof. Judging from your reaction just now, you are an emperor." . Those of us who live on the emperor's salary are loyal to the emperor. We can't help but ask a few more questions, and please don't take offense, little brother."
When Zhao Mu saw the three people being so sincere, even though it was a little early, the other party showed their favor, so he should repay Li Cai's favor.
Besides, there was no harm in coming to Dali. He was just cuckolding Duan Zhengchun, a scumbag, and kidnapping his daughters.
But apart from Duan Zhengchun's problematic lifestyle, the Duan family are all decent people. Moreover, Emperor Baoding was a wise and wise man who made the people live and work in peace and contentment. His ancestor Zhao Kuangyin, the founding king of the Song Dynasty, gave up the conquest of Dali Kingdom with the "Song Dynasty wielding a jade ax". Naturally, he has no ambitions for Dali.
Moreover, there are powerful ministers in Dali today and barbarians outside. Moreover, in this era, it has not yet been developed and is still a remote and remote place. It is a loss-making business to acquire such a place.
Compared to Dali Kingdom, Zhao Mu still focused on the Sixteen States of Yanyun.
