live with conscience

"By the way, I haven't asked Mr. what is your name and where do you live?"

Instructing Yan Jiang, a fisherman who is said to be Chu Wanli, who fell into the water, pulled him back to the shore with a fishing rod and a silk thread.

In the spirit of humanitarianism, the innocent cannon fodder was given special medicine for internal injuries.

Lin Lan continued to ask: "Your mistress...which family is the most powerful? How many legitimate sons and daughters are there? Are they adults?"

When a series of questions were asked, the simple pen, ink and paper had already been laid on the stone surface that Yan had found nearby and smoothed by him.

"Words are unsubstantiated, words are evidence."

Duan Zhengchun found it ironic that the eldest daughter he met for the first time, who was very assertive, would speak like this.

"As a father, why can't you trust me like this?"

These words are the usual tone and demeanor he used to coax ignorant women and children as a playboy for many years.

For women who put down their guard, no matter how old or young, they have been trying everything.

Seeing that the eyes of the second daughter, A'Zhu, had loosened a bit, and the eyes of the third daughter, A'Zi, were also mischievous, he knew that it would be useful to soften his tone.

Strike while the iron is hot: "My father is Duan Zhengchun, the king of Dali Zhennan, and I came to the Central Plains this time to find your...brother, Duan Yu."

In terms of age, Lin Lan and Yan are older than Duan Yu, while Azhu Azi is younger...

For women, concealment is the most unwise behavior.

Duan Zhengchun's personal experience is that when it comes to girls, no matter who they are, the first thing to do is not to lie, even if you want to lie, you have to be [-]% true and [-]% false.

With less authenticity, it is easy to overturn and rebound. After all, women are sensitive and thoughtful about the people they value, no matter how innocent they are.

If there are too many, it will become unromantic and uninteresting.

For children, parents are subconsciously looking for shelter in their nature. Although A'Zhu and A'Zi's dependence on their parents has been discounted under Lin Lan's tricks, the nature of blood relationship is still there.

Seeing such a "paternal" side of their biological father, even if the object is not them, but the "brother" they have never met, they will subconsciously be interested.

Duan Zhengchun was very proud, and found that on the other side, Lin Lan was digging a pit to pile up the stove and put the pot (Yan bluntly "borrowed" it from the wooden bamboo house on the side), preparing to make a big mess for Yan who was scared by jumping into the lake to fish. meal.

Obviously, he has been paying attention to his behavior, but he doesn't stop him. He secretly thinks: Don't look at this daughter's appearance of drawing a line with her, but she is actually looking forward to her father's love.

When talking about Duan Yu for a while, he was very excited: "Your elder brother is the one who hates martial arts the most, and he prefers Confucianism and Buddhism..."

With the topic and attention, the chat can continue. Duan Zhengchun's purpose is not pure, his eloquence is not bad, and he is also a father by blood. Soon the topic will come: "Dali is a very beautiful place, where the four seasons Ruchun..."

——Customs and customs.

"Your uncle and aunt are both..."

—— Relatives and friends.

"Every time it comes to Wanfo Festival, we will eat..."

——Gourmet scenery.

In short, with one mouth open, the tongue was like a lotus flower, and Ah Zhu and Ah Zi were full of curiosity and longing.

Ruan Xingzhu smiled tearfully watching the father and daughter's exchange.

When Lin Lan cooked a pot of wild vegetable and fresh fish soup with local ingredients, and the grilled fish smelled fragrant, the reserved Ah Zhu was fine, and the lively Ah Zi had already forgotten the previous unhappiness, and kept asking Duan Zhengchun asked all kinds of things about Dali and the Dali Palace.

Xiao Feng's expression was serious.

"Hero Xiao, what are you thinking?"

Lin Lan first gave Yan Sheng a large bowl, and then used bowls to distribute the fish soup to others.

In order to avoid Lin Lan's embarrassment, Ah Zhu thoughtfully took over and assumed the responsibility of distributing the soup.

Hearing Lin Lan's question, Ah Zhu seemed to realize something, and immediately turned pale.

Xiao Feng also noticed it, and finally said: "Nothing."

Lin Lan doesn't force it, there are things that can't be said to others.

What she cares more about is: "Could you trouble Prince Duan to write down our promise before the meal? Promise that you will not ask us to do anything other than support and death in the name of our biological father. Sign Put your name on it, and it would be more appropriate if you have an official seal."

Duan Zhengchun: ...

Thought it could be fooled.

Lin Lan: You have a good idea.

"Still, do you need me to write for you?"

The threat was obvious.

Lin Lan actually thought about it quite a bit, but what she wrote as a ghostwriter would definitely make him vomit blood, and he wouldn't be able to get off the stage by then, and things would be troublesome again.

The fisherman remembers whether to eat or not to fight, and seeing his lord being "bullied" to such an extent, he said "righteously": "Miss, my lord wants to write a letter of commitment, so maybe you don't have to write it, so it's not very unfair?"

Lin Lan looked at the fisherman in surprise, and smiled so much that Chu Wanli, the fisherman, felt like he was on his back.

"Of course we also want to write, but it's not for Prince Duan..." Mo Mou immediately returned to her side to curry favor with A Zi, Lin Lan said gloatingly: "A Zi wants to go to Dali to see Look right, it just so happens that we also need to go to Dali."

Ah Zi smiled so brightly that she almost hid in Lin Lan's arms and rolled, the cute Lin Lan's heart softened.

Compared to the side, I can't bear it anymore, the rough Yan who started on the grilled fish, the cute little sister is the caring little padded jacket!

It was Duan Zhengchun, Ruan Xingzhu and Chu Wanli who were really not in a good mood at this moment.

They are not stupid, they are all smart people, of course they know why Lin Lan wants to go to Dali.

They all felt that Lin Lan's smile was full of malice at this time: "Our letter of commitment, written to Prince Duan, has no effect, and it does not have any sincerity. Our letter of promise, if we want to give it, is also for Duan Duan in Dali today." The princess Duan, who is being married by the prince Mingmei, must be the empress of Dali and the eminent monk of Tianlong Temple as witnesses."

really.

Duan Zhengchun felt very guilty and embarrassed by Lin Lan's words. He reconfirmed that his eldest daughter was definitely not a delicate girl who could easily manipulate an ignorant existence.

Lin Lan took the fish soup that Azhu handed over, and said to the two girls in a serious manner: "I don't know if your education has anything to do with it, but as a sister, I should tell you about it. After all , Our biological father, Prince Duan, is already recognized as the younger brother of the Dali Emperor, and will be the sure-fire Emperor of Dali in the future."

"Everything Prince Duan said about Dali Kingdom is correct, but he didn't go into it."

Duan Zhengchun: ...

I feel like I'm about to be slapped in the face again.

"I haven't been out of the mountains for a long time, and I only have a rough understanding of the current situation between countries in the mountains." He took out a piece of paper, randomly used dry grass on the ground to smear ink, and came up with a pair of country and country with his bare hands. Large map of the territory of the country.

Everyone: ...

sketchy? !

What do you misunderstand about the word rough? !

"According to the court's residence report, local stories, and what Prince Duan said just now, I roughly estimate that Dali is now governed by Confucianism and Buddhist people... It's just that Dali is different from Song Dynasty, which is dominated by Han people. But Dali is composed of many ethnic groups, the largest number, and it is said that it is the Baiyi ethnic group."

Following Lin Lan's meaningful eyes, everyone noticed that Duan Zhengchun was sweating profusely, and his smile was uglier than his crying.

Lin Lan remembered that this scumbag father was uneasy and kind enough to seduce her... No, um, it was the recovered sisters, who spoke mercilessly: "If I remember correctly, Duan Wangye's concubine is just showing off... The direct daughter of the chieftain of the Yi tribe, and... the customs of the Yi tribe have always been monogamous, and now Princess Duan has become a Taoist priest!"

Ah Zi wanted to show off the most, so she immediately reacted: "Sister, you mean, Prince Duan didn't dare to take us back to Dali to raise him because he was afraid of his wife?"

Lin Lan touched her head encouragingly: "Yes, and no."

A'Zhu obviously thought more deeply, but being gentle and kind, she couldn't do anything to satirize her biological father, so she just lowered her head and pretended not to know.

AhZi didn't have such scruples, and immediately let go of her thoughts: "Is it true to be afraid of your wife? Is it true to be afraid of your wife's natal family?"

Lin Lan was merciless: "No, I'm afraid that the country will be in turmoil, the imperial power will fall, and the power and wealth will no longer be the most true!"

Duan Zhengchun: ...

My face hurts!

Chu Wanli lowered his head and drank the soup. Even if the soup was finished, he still had to continue to drink. He should continue to pretend to be seriously injured and unconscious. He heard the whole process that his lord was betrayed by the eldest lady. The consequences would be worrisome!

Seeing Azi still didn't quite understand, Lin Lan continued to break apart and said to her: "The Baiyi tribe occupies the largest number of people in Dali, as long as the Baiyi tribe surrenders to the Duan family, Dali will be more than half stable, especially now that Princess Duan Already have the eldest son, oh... the only eldest son, the future legitimate heir of Prince Duan, that is, the heir of Dali, which involves too many complicated things, no matter how much Prince Duan and Princess Duan hate each other , this marriage is inseparable. Madam Ruan didn't go to Dali with her, and Prince Duan didn't take us to Dali, that's why."

Ah Zi completely understood: "So, sister, you said that our commitment letter should be written to Princess Duan and Emperor Dali, is that what you mean?"

Lin Lan rubbed Azi's face in praise: "We can't choose our biological father and biological mother, and I'm afraid Princess Duan can't choose her husband either. To a certain extent, we are sympathetic to each other. No matter what, we should go and explain it to her. Although, our presence may make Princess Duan very angry, so angry that she wants to kill us, but one should not avoid medical treatment for Wei disease because of fear of trouble, abscesses always need to be broken and treated with medicine Hurry up, if you hold it, it will only rot and stink in the end, and you can only cut your flesh to survive."

Ah Zi was very upset: "Why can't we kill the princess and her son, and let little brother Yan take the lead?"

Lin Lan tapped her on the forehead: "You are confused, didn't you listen to me? Duan Wangye can become the emperor's younger brother, not because he is so powerful and capable, but because he is lucky enough to marry the Baiyi clan." Fortunately, the princess of the Baiyi tribe gave him a son. Once he loses the support of the Baiyi tribe, it is still unknown whether he can succeed in ascending to the throne with the support of Emperor Dali alone. !"

Ah Zi quickly understood: "I understand, it turned out that Prince Duan was afraid of this, but that Princess Duan was too stupid, since that was the case, why didn't she just abolish Prince Duan and let her son take over directly! "

Duan Zhengchun: ...

Fatal blow!

He should have become furious and reprimanded Ah Zi for her treason, but he was discouraged by Lin Lan's threatening eyes.

Lin Lan sighed, and there was a long way to go to educate her sister: "I don't know about this, but even if I were Princess Duan, I wouldn't do this."

Duan Zhengchun was moved for a moment, and then he was thrown into hell in an instant.

"It's hard to be an emperor, especially an emperor who needs to balance multiple ethnic groups internally and maintain his country's status among multiple countries externally. By the way, most of the pressure from abroad will be relieved, and the scapegoat will be the best time to kill him and let Prince Duan take over."

Ah Zi sighed: "It's so complicated, I don't understand..."

Lin Lan didn't force it: "So, none of you are good at playing politics. You just have to remember, trust anyone, and don't trust the royal family. Their reputation has always been based on interests, power and wealth. It's not that they don't betray, they just let them The interests they have betrayed are not enough to make them feel excited."

To Duan Zhengchun: "Prince Duan, do you want to write or not to write this letter of commitment? You only have one chance. If you write it now, you can still explain it to the princess. If you don't write it, I don't mind telling Princess Duan after you arrive in Dali." I would like to suggest that you abdicate in advance, and Prince Duan will write for you."

Duan Zhengchun: ...
