Villains of the Heavens: The Empress Dowager Is Pregnant

Chapter 74

In the story of Tianlong, although there is no such weapon as Yitian Sword and Dragon Slaying Saber, which can dominate the martial arts.

But there are also some peerless magical skills and Qidan spirits.

Chen Xuan has [Heaven's Hate] fate in his body, and he doesn't have time to hide in the deep mountains and old forests to cultivate his inner strength, but he happens to have one of the strange medicines in the rivers and lakes.

That is the combination of yin and yang.

Chen Xuan's heart moved, and he greeted Dao Baifeng.

"You and I haven't seen each other for many years. Although you are ruthless to me, I am interested in you. Since we meet now, you might as well have a drink with me."

"No need, I entered the Taoist sect many years ago, abstained from alcohol and meat, and practiced purely."

"No wonder, when I first met Madam, I thought you were like that Guanyin who descended to earth, you really are a fairy, with an excellent temperament."

"..."

Dao Baifeng listened to his praise and just ignored it.

Chen Xuan changed his mind, seeing that it was impossible to invite her to drink, he changed his mind.

"Since that's the case, let's have some refreshments. You don't have wine or meat in this Taoist temple, so you should have some rough tea and snacks."

When he asked such a question, Dao Baifeng naturally couldn't find any reason to refuse, so he had to say.

"If you are hungry, there are some ready-made snacks in my Taoist temple, you can eat them yourself."

"That won't work, you have to sit and eat with me."

Dao Baifeng felt helpless, so he had to go and get a few plates of snacks.

She said that she lived alone in this Taoist temple with a lonely shadow, but she was the daughter of the patriarch of the Baiyi tribe after all.

The Baiyi tribe occupies the south of Dali, and there are tens of thousands of soldiers. Dao Baifeng is also the daughter of the Nanman tribe.

How could she really drink porridge every day in this temple.

Chen Xuan glanced at the snacks she brought.

Although they are all refreshments such as sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, plum crisps, and poplar nectar, they are exquisite in style and obviously well-made.

It seems that this Dao Baifeng is also a little rich woman, she has been away from Duan Zhengchun for more than ten years, and she is living quite leisurely.

Chen Xuan was a drunkard who didn't care about drinking, so he naturally picked up a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and ate it in one gulp.

Seeing his vulgar behavior, Dao Baifeng frowned slightly, just about to say something.

Unexpectedly, Chen Xuan ate the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in one bite, and suddenly coughed "cough cough cough".

"Are you OK?"

"Water! Give me water!"

"You are a real person. With such a grand style, eating a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake seems to kill you."

Dao Baifeng smiled helplessly, got up and poured a cup of tea for Chen Xuan.

But after she got up, Chen Xuan's eyes suddenly froze, and a small paper bag was shaken out of his sleeve, and it slipped into his palm.

With a bit of luck, Chen Xuan shook the small paper bag open, and a cloud of medicinal powder fell on the sweet-scented osmanthus cake.

The sweet-scented osmanthus cake was originally white, and the medicinal powder was sprinkled on it, so if you don't look carefully, you really can't see it.

Dao Baifeng poured him a cup of tea, but when he turned around, he found that Chen Xuan stopped coughing, and said in doubt.

"How are you?"

"Let the lady laugh."

Chen Xuan smiled awkwardly, took a sip from the teacup, and deliberately found something to say.

"This sweet-scented osmanthus cake is not steamed, and some of the glutinous rice flour is still raw."

"How is this possible? These pastries are all made by time-honored brands in Dali City, how can there be such half-baked pastries."

Dao Baifeng was indeed attracted.

Chen Xuan took advantage of the opportunity to pick up the pastry sprinkled with medicinal powder.

"Try how this pastry tastes."

Dao Baifeng did not doubt that he was there, so he took a small bite, but unexpectedly felt that there was some powder on it.

She said she was suspicious, but Chen Xuan encouraged her from the side.

"You try again."

She took another two mouthfuls in doubt, then pursed her lips, feeling something was wrong.

Chen Xuan saw it in his eyes, sneered secretly in his heart, but said in his mouth.

"How about it, is it true that you are not familiar with it?"

"This... This is really a joke. I didn't expect that I, Dao Baifeng, would treat guests with such pastries. It's really rude."

"It's okay, Madam can entertain me in the same way as she did under the bodhi tree in the past, that means the etiquette is in place."

As soon as Chen Xuan said this, Dao Baifeng twisted his eyebrows, and he was very angry and annoyed.

But it's a joke, he suddenly mentioned this matter, and Dao Baifeng couldn't help but recall the situation back then, and he couldn't help feeling hot all of a sudden.

Before she could figure out what was wrong.

Just listen to what Chen Xuan said.

"Do you know who I am?"

"...Why should I know who you are?"

"I think the princess should know who I am."

Chen Xuan's words went around like a riddle.

Dao Baifeng turned cold.

"I do not know what you're talking about."

Chen Xuan smiled confidently.

"Is the princess really ignorant or pretending not to know?"

The reason why Chen Xuan insisted on asking was naturally because he believed that Dao Baifeng had recognized him.

Even outside Tianlong Temple, Dao Baifeng might have recognized him as Prince Yanqing.

At that time, Duan Siping, who was the envoy of Tonghai Jiedu at that time, defeated Yang Guozhen with the help of 37 Wuman tribes in eastern Yunnan, became king himself, and changed the name of the country to Dali.

Since then, the Duan and Yang clans have had a blood feud.

The Yang family, like the Gusu Murong family, began to aspire to restore the country.

In the generation of Duan Yanqing's father, Yang Yunxian, a descendant of the Yang family, rebelled.

Gao Zhisheng, the powerful minister of Dali Kingdom, sent troops to quell the chaos.

Later, Yang Yizhen, the son of Yang Yunxian, launched a rebellion again, killed Duan Lianyi, the No. 12 monarch of Dali, made himself king, and changed his name to De'an, named "Emperor Guang'an".

Duan Yanqing was the son of Duan Lianyi, the No.12 emperor, and the Prince Yanqing of Dali Kingdom at that time.

Duan Lianyi was killed by Yang Yizhen's rebels, and Duan Yanqing escaped from the palace in chaos.

At this time, Dali was controlled by Yang Yizhen. Seeing that Dali could not settle down, Duan Yanqing fled to Song Dynasty to practice martial arts in seclusion in order to restore the country and regain the throne in the future.

Unexpectedly, just four months after he escaped from Dali, the then prime minister Gao Zhilian ordered his son Gao Shengtai to lead the Wuman army in eastern Yunnan to kill Yang Yizhen.

Later, with the support of the Gao family, Duan Shouhui, the nephew brother of Duan Yanqing's father, was established as the emperor of Dali.

Later, this Duan Shouhui gave the throne to Duan Zhengchun's elder brother, Duan Zhengming.

That is, the current Emperor Baoding of Dali Kingdom.

And on the other side.

Duan Yanqing, who fled to the Song Dynasty for nearly two years, devoted himself to practicing the family martial arts of the Duan clan in Dali, and soon returned home.

At this time, Duan Yanqing's martial arts were so strong that he was close to being among the best in the world.

However, he was alone and weak.

When he was riding fast to Huguang Road, he was suddenly intercepted and killed by a strong enemy.

These were all trained killers who were later rumored to be the remnants of Yang Yizhen's rebel army.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, you will find that the appearance of these people is irrational.

After all, the rebels of the Yang family were wiped out two years ago, not to mention that the then emperor of Dali Kingdom had already been succeeded by Duan Zhengming.

Duan Yanqing has long been an insignificant former prince.

If the rebels really wanted to ambush, they should have ambushed Duan Zhengming or Duan Zhengchun.

How could he be intercepted and killed by the former rebels?
