Chapter 270 Duan Yanqing, Dali’s No. Guide!

Those who often sell out their country know that selling out their country is an art of transaction, which has extremely high requirements on the identity and status of the traitor.

If you are just an ordinary citizen, you have no country to sell even if you want to, so you can only sell yourself.

Duan Yanqing's current status is high enough and his power is great enough, so he was promoted to a very promising traitor of Dali. He directly cooperated with Murong Fu, and opened the city gates and passes along the way in Dali, allowing Murong Fu's army to pass unimpeded.

Duan Yanqing even took the initiative to provide logistics for Murong Fu, which greatly alleviated Murong Fu's logistical pressure. He betrayed his country to such an extent that even Murong Fu had to give him a thumbs up.

Duan Yanqing, this is selling at a high level.

Murong Fu's acquisition of Yanqing is like the Jin people's acquisition of Qin Hui!

Of course, the Ming army was not as brutal as the Jin army. This was mainly because the Ming army soldiers were turned into good family men by Murong Fu. After the land was distributed, they became landlords. Moreover, their salaries were very high and they were relatively wealthy.

Murong Fu was strict in managing his army and the military discipline was very good.

They did not harm anyone along the way, but instead demonstrated their economic strength. Indeed, many Ming soldiers succeeded in seducing Bai girls.

The guides in Dali include not only Duan Yanqing, but also the Longcheng Chamber of Commerce.

The Longcheng Chamber of Commerce, which was formerly composed of the Shennong Gang and the Wuliang Sword, is really looking forward to Murong Fu's garrison in Dali.

So Murong Fu didn't fight at all, he just suppressed the bandits and came all the way to Dali City.

The annexation of Dali is just like an outing.

On this day, in Dali City, Duan Yanqing suddenly launched a coup!
He led his troops to surround the imperial palace, the Palace of Prince Zhennan, and the Palace of Marquis Shanchan, and successively arrested Dali Emperor Duan Zhengming, Dali Prince Zhennan Duan Zhengchun, and Dali Prime Minister Gao Shengtai.

When the coup took place, these three men surrendered without any intention of resisting.

Duan Yanqing knows the Six Meridians Divine Sword, and they can only count six. What can they use to fight Duan Yanqing?
What's more, behind Duan Yanqing is the even more terrifying Ming Dynasty Hongwu Emperor Murong Fu.

Emperor Hongwu Murong Fu was invincible in every attack and battle. He destroyed the Song Dynasty, swallowed up the Xia Dynasty, pacified Tubo, and recovered the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. He was truly a great ruler, far superior to Emperor Taizu of Song and Emperor Taizong of Song.

Even if Dali resisted to the death, it would end up in ashes.

What's more, in Dali, there are both powerful guides like Duan Yanqing and influential traitors like the Longcheng Chamber of Commerce. The Duan family of Dali can just lie down and wait for the attack.

Dali Duan: Come on, my dear son-in-law, come and ravage me as you please! When you are tired, destroy me!
Anyway, before Murong Fu came, the Duan family of Dali was just a puppet. After Murong Fu came, it was still a puppet. Murong Fu came here purely to do his job in vain.

In history, when the Mongols invaded Dali, the Duan family just lay down and let themselves be attacked, but the Gao family fought stubbornly to the end.

Seeing that the Duan family was so sensible, the Mongols appointed Duan as the governor of Dali. The Duan family then began to understand the taste of real power.

As a result, after the fall of the Yuan Dynasty, it was the Duan family's turn to fight back against the Ming Dynasty troops, but they were like a mantis trying to stop a chariot and were vulnerable.

This is mainly the difference between having real power and not having real power.

If you have real power, you must defend your interests. If you don’t have real power, then it really doesn’t matter.

Gao Shengtai really wanted to resist, but thinking of Murong Fu's divine power, looking at Duan Yanqing who came to arrest him personally, and estimating that his martial arts were slightly better than Ye Erniang's, Gao Shengtai tactfully surrendered.

So, in the Dali Palace, Duan Zhengming, Duan Zhengchun and Gao Shengtai, who were under house arrest, stared at each other in amazement.

"Brother Chun, aren't your clothes too bright?" Duan Zhengming hadn't seen Duan Zhengchun for a long time, but he saw Duan Zhengchun in a gorgeous brocade dress. The clothes were very bright and embroidered with peonies, which looked rich and elegant, and a bit effeminate.

Ever since Duan Zhengchun became a palace maid, he has been hiding in the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion and has not been seen by anyone. His mistresses have also left, leaving only Dao Baifeng who is bound to him.

However, it is said that during this period, the relationship between Prince Zhennan and Dao Baifeng has recovered a lot.

"It's OK. I've long since stopped caring about worldly affairs. I naturally want to enjoy my wealth at home." Duan Zhengchun's voice was also feminine and sharp. "I have let Fenghuang'er down too much in the past. Now, she and I are studying embroidery together, and we are in perfect harmony. This dress was sewn by Fenghuang'er herself, but the peony on it was embroidered by me. How about it, brother, is it beautiful?"

Duan Zhengming felt a chill and got goose bumps.

Gao Shengtai knew more. According to the report from his spies, after Duan Zhengchun was castrated and experienced the tragedy of being abandoned by his mistress, his mentality changed subtly and he gradually began to like things with a strong scent of cosmetics.

But somehow, Duan Zhengchun and Dao Baifeng, who had been husband and wife for many years, became sisters. They chose clothes together, bought jewelry and cosmetics, and went out together as a pair. They were in harmony like never before.

Duan Zhengchun even fell in love with singing opera, but he liked to play the opposite role. It is said that he sang "The Palace of Eternal Life" with Dao Baifeng, he played Yang Guifei and Dao Baifeng played Emperor Minghuang of Tang. Duan Zhengchun understood women very well, and it is said that his acting was so lifelike that Dao Baifeng was moved by it.

Although Duan Zhengchun had lost his manliness, he still had the One Finger Zen.

After being castrated, Duan Zhengchun's One Yang Finger actually improved greatly, his Qi energy could be stretched and retracted freely, it could be turned into something as soft as silk, or condensed into steel. It can only be said that even if a bit of power remains in this God of Picking Up Girls, he is still better than many men in the world.

Why does Gao Shengtai know so many details?

Of course, it was because Gao Shengtai was the one who controlled Dali and could monitor the entire country.

However, his "first-hand" skill was about to be turned into "second-hand" by the collusion between Murong Fu and Duan Yanqing.

From now on, he will be a second-hand prime minister and will be leaving the stage completely.

"Your Majesty, is Dali's century-old foundation coming to an end just like that?" Gao Shengtai said to Duan Zhengming, still feeling upset.

"The century-old foundation of the Song Dynasty, the foundation of several generations of the Western Xia Dynasty, and the foundation of Tubo, aren't they all gone?" Duan Zhengming said with a wry smile, "I originally wanted to abdicate after this year and become a monk in the Tianlong Temple, but I didn't expect that I would still be the king of a fallen country."

Duan Zhengchun said sharply, "Humph, my royal brother, when Murong Fu left Dali, he said he would bring back 100,000 soldiers. We thought he was joking, but we didn't expect that it was what he really meant. What we thought was a joke back then has now come true. This kid is ambitious and a playboy. He is lustful and crazy. My six daughters have all been ruined by him. It's like my Dali Duan family owed him something in my previous life. I lost my daughters and my kingdom."

Duan Zhengchun didn't like Murong Fu in the first place. After all, only between colleagues could there be naked hatred, and what a scumbag hates most is another scumbag.

What's more, Murong Fu was dating Duan Zhengchun's daughters. He was trying to fleece Duan Zhengchun and was almost skinning him naked.

"Stop talking. Now that things have come to this, just admit it." Duan Zhengming said, "He won't kill us all."

At this moment, Duan Yanqing brought Duan Yu and Gao Mei to the palace.

"Dad" Duan Yu looked at his strange father and felt strange. He could only suppress his discomfort and said, "Uncle, are you okay?"

After Duan Yu finished speaking, he remembered Gao Shengtai and asked again: "Uncle Gao, are you okay?"

Duan Zhengming said: "Yu'er, we are fine. Prince Yanqing did not make things difficult for us. It's just that you can't be the emperor anymore."

Duan Yu said: "I don't want to be an emperor anyway. It's fine to be a monk in Tianlong Temple."

In terms of life ideals, the two are surprisingly consistent. Like Xu Zhu, Duan Yu enjoys being a monk.

Gao Mei pinched Duan Yu and said angrily, "My dear, if you become a monk, what should I do? Should I become a nun with you?"

"Monks and nuns are not the same family!" Duan Yu coughed, "I mean, I'm going to be a monk when I get old."

"That's more like it." Gao Mei said.

Gao Shengtai looked at this scene and sighed. It was originally a good thing for his daughter to be with Duan Yu, which would be of great benefit to the Gao family.

Now the country is on the verge of destruction and everything is meaningless.

Duan Yanqing said, "Who said Yu'er can't be the emperor? The Divine Emperor has already promised me to make me the King of Nanyue. Anyway, the throne of our Dali is closed and the door is closed. When I become the King of Nanyue, I will pass the throne to Yu'er."

As he spoke, Duan Yanqing looked at Duan Yu with loving eyes and a doting expression.

Duan Zhengchun was dissatisfied with Duan Yanqing's role as a guide, and could not help but sarcastically said: "Yu'er is my son, not yours. You are alone, and you want to take someone else's child for yourself? If you have the ability, give birth to one yourself!"

Duan Yanqing couldn't hold back any longer after hearing this. He laughed out loud and said to Duan Zhengchun, "Thank you, thank you! Duan Zhengchun, ah Duan Zhengchun, I will call you my benefactor from now on!"

Duan Yanqing kept thanking him, saying in his heart: Thank you, my wife, for giving birth to my child, thank you for helping me raise the child! And you, the King of Zhennan, you are truly compassionate and merciful, saving people from suffering!

Thinking of this, Duan Yanqing laughed even louder.

"He's simply a lunatic!" Duan Zhengchun felt that Duan Yanqing was unreasonable.

Duan Yanqing laughed for a while and said, "Come with me to welcome the Great Ming Hongwu Emperor!"
