After coming out of Li Qingluo's place, Li Xianyu walked among the camellias, silently thinking about tomorrow's wedding banquet.
After A'Zhu's incident, his focus was no longer the complicated and hazy love affair with Wang Yuyan.
"Murong Bo probably doesn't have much hope for A'Zhu either." Li Xianyu secretly thought, guessing that Murong Bo would definitely make another move at the wedding banquet.
"I never like being passive."
A coldness flashed in Li Xianyu's eyes, and he walked back to Xianyu Pavilion.
Just in case, it is better to coax the old woman Tianshan Tonglao.
…
In the evening, Gusu City.
Outside Zhao's Restaurant.
"We'll stay here first and then go to Mantuo Villa tomorrow morning." Duan Zhengchun walked into the restaurant, followed by Zhu Danchen and Fu Sigui from the Western Family.
As for the other two generals of the Western Family, they were in tandem, guarding Duan Zhengchun in the dark.
Walking into the lobby, Duan Zhengchun glanced casually and his eyelids suddenly twitched.
At the dining table in the west corner of the lobby, two women in black were sitting.
One has an extremely mature and voluptuous figure, while the other is slim and has attractive curves.
Just by looking at the profiles of the two women, Duan Zhengchun determined their identities.
Qin Hongmian...his mistress.
Mu Wanqing...his illegitimate daughter.
"Eh..." Duan Zhengchun sighed secretly, glanced in the direction of the counter, hesitated for a moment, turned and walked to a nearby dining table, sat down with his back to the two women, and at the same time said to Zhu Danchen and Fu Sigui, "You guys leave first" Eyes.
If you go to the counter to rent a room at this time, you will most likely be discovered by Qin Hongmian and Mu Wanqing.
Once he met Qin Hongmian, Duan Zhengchun was worried that he might not be able to control himself.
If you fall in love, there will be no sexual happiness for the rest of your life.
"Sir, what would you like to eat?" the restaurant waiter came to the table where Duan Zhengchun was sitting and asked with a smile.
Duan Zhengchun deliberately tightened his abdomen, his entire waist was like a line, his right hand pinched his throat seemingly casually, and said: "A pot of wine, plus three signature dishes."
"Okay, please wait a moment." The restaurant waiter returned to the kitchen with a smile.
Mu Wanqing glanced casually and then focused on the food.
As for Qin Hongmian, her back was facing Duan Zhengchun, and she could barely hear Duan Zhengchun's 'accent change'.
Near the window on the east side.
An old man with fair face and fair hair was drinking wine gently, and glanced at Duan Zhengchun as if unintentionally.
Duan Zhengchun sat in front of the table and listened quietly to the sounds behind him. He didn't hear any strange movements from Qin Hongmian and Mu Wanqing, and he felt a little relieved.
Not a moment.
The waiter of the restaurant first brought a bottle of wine to Duan Zhengchun, and then brought three signature dishes.
"Sir, please take your time." The waiter said with a smile and was about to turn around and leave. At this moment, a hoarse and unpleasant voice came from outside the restaurant:
"Add another wine glass and a pair of chopsticks."
Hearing the sound, the restaurant waiter raised his head and looked outside the restaurant door.
Duan Zhengchun suddenly froze.
Mu Wanqing's expression changed greatly, and she reached out to hold the sword placed on the dining table.
Qin Hongmian looked back. Her first sight was on the figure in front of the restaurant door, and her expression suddenly changed. Then her eyes moved uncontrollably to Duan Zhengchun, and her expression changed again and again.
"he is……"
The childlike-faced and crane-haired old man sitting by the window on the east side narrowed his eyes thoughtfully.
The person who came was none other than Duan Yanqing, the famous evil leader of the Western University.
After having a secret talk with Li Xianyu, he went to Xixia Kingdom as promised, found out some things that Li Yanzong and Murong Fu had done, and then hurried back to Gusu City.
Originally, he wanted to go to Mantuo Villa first to find Li Xianyu; but then he changed his mind and thought that if Duan Zhengchun went to Mantuo Villa, he would definitely pass through Gusu City.
Therefore, during the two days after returning from Xixia, he stayed in Gusu City, waiting for Duan Zhengchun's arrival.
Duan Yanqing walked slowly into the restaurant lobby with crutches, and sat down opposite Duan Zhengchun.
There are wine glasses and chopsticks on the dinner table.
The waiter in the restaurant felt vaguely that this ugly middle-aged man with disabled legs was not easy to deal with, so he quietly retreated to the kitchen.
In the past few days, he has entertained many people from the world, and he is considered very discerning.
Duan Yanqing poured himself a glass of wine, picked up the glass and took a sip.
Then, he started to stare at Duan Zhengchun.
A face with Chinese character, quite majestic.
Duan Zhengchun's brows gradually furrowed. After a while, he saw Duan Yanqing staring at him. He couldn't help but feel a little frightened in his heart. He couldn't help but shout: "What are you looking at?"
A rare smile appeared on Duan Yanqing's face.
He smiled heartily.
But in the eyes of Duan Zhengchun, Mu Wanqing, Qin Hongmian, and even the young-faced and heavy-haired old man, they all seemed extremely charming.
"I'm curious. You're average-looking, so why are there so many women jealous of you?" Duan Yanqing made a hoarse voice from his abdomen, with a smile still on his face, with a hint of ridicule.
Duan Zhengchun was a little confused. If he hadn't clearly felt the strong sense of oppression coming from the opposite side, he would have suspected that the evil man in front of him might be his own Xingzhu disguise.
Qin Hongmian, who was sitting deep in the lobby, had a slight blush on her cheeks. She couldn't help but think that her Duan Lang was indeed not very handsome.
"None of your business?" Duan Zhengchun said coldly. He knew in his heart that when he met Duan Yanqing here, his fate was at an end, and he would not be polite to Duan Yanqing.
This was a very unpleasant sentence to hear, but to Duan Yanqing's ears, it sounded like some kind of 'anger from shame'.
Not only was he not angry, he actually had more of a smile on his face.
"Fortunately, you are average-looking." Duan Yanqing sighed with emotion. If Duan Zhengchun was as handsome as he was when he was young, then he really couldn't believe it... Duan Yu was his biological son.
But now, the more he looked at Duan Zhengchun's face, the more convinced he became that Duan Yu was his son.
Duan Zhengchun frowned deeply and sneered: "Your Excellency, your appearance is not even average."
Duan Yanqing smiled again and ventriloquised: "When I was young, I was much more handsome than you."
Duan Zhengchun: "..."
"Ugly people tend to cause mischief." Mu Wanqing couldn't help but mutter.
Duan Yanqing glanced at it lightly, and suddenly his heart moved.
"Since Duan Yu is my son, he can naturally marry Mu Wanqing..."
Thinking of this, Duan Yanqing shook his head again and said to himself, "Mu Wanqing is pretty good-looking, but her wild nature is difficult to tame. In the future, when Yu'er becomes emperor, he can reluctantly accept her as his concubine. The queen must marry a noble girl." OK."
Whoosh!
Suddenly, Qin Hongmian waved his sleeves fiercely, and three poisonous arrows shot out from the sleeves, attacking Duan Yanqing first.
"Run quickly."
Qin Hongmian shouted loudly.
Clang!
Duan Yanqing moved his hands together, and the iron crutch in his left hand easily shot down three poisonous arrows, making a 'clang' sound.
He raised the iron crutch with his right hand and put the tip of the crutch against Duan Zhengchun's throat.
Duan Zhengchun's face turned pale and he froze, not daring to move.
Qin Hongmian and Mu Wanqing's expressions changed. They stood up at the same time and looked at Duan Zhengchun nervously.
"Interesting~."
The childlike-faced and gray-haired old man sitting by the window on the east side took a sip of wine.
"Don't force me to kill you right away." Duan Yanqing took back the crutch and poured himself a glass of new wine.
Duan Zhengchun secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said in a deep voice: "The grudge between you and me is an internal matter of the Duan family. Don't implicate innocent people."
"Duan family?"
The childlike face and heavy-haired old man's heart moved, and he vaguely guessed Duan Zhengchun's identity.
"As long as you answer my question truthfully, I will let them go." Duan Yanqing stared at Duan Zhengchun and said slowly.
"What's the problem?" Duan Zhengchun was secretly alert.
Duan Yanqing asked: "How many sons do you have in total?"
"What?" Duan Zhengchun was stunned, thinking that he heard wrongly.
Duan Yanqing repeated: "How many sons do you have in total?"
this point is very important.
He must ensure that his son Duan Yu is the only heir to the throne of Dali.
"How many sons do I have? Don't you know?" Duan Zhengchun sneered, feeling that the villain in front of him was deliberately teasing him.
Duan Yanqing was silent and said: "You are a romantic person by nature. Even Wang Yuyan, the eldest daughter of Manduo Villa, is your illegitimate daughter. How can I be sure if you have other illegitimate children outside?"
Duan Zhengchun, Mu Wanqing, and Qin Hongmian all looked calm. They all knew who Wang Yuyan's biological father was.
The face of the old man with childish face and heavy hair froze.
"Are you worried about this?" Duan Zhengchun smiled and said leisurely, "It's really hard to answer this question. As you said, Duan is a romantic person. Maybe some beautiful woman actually gave birth to a son for me."
Duan Yanqing's face darkened.
"Even if you kill me and Yu'er, the throne of Dali will never be your turn." Duan Zhengchun looked at Duan Yanqing and said with a half-smile, "After all, I might actually have an illegitimate child."
"Asshole." Qin Hongmian couldn't help but cursed, with a cold look on his face.
Duan Zhengchun paused, smiled, and ignored Qin Hongmian.
He knew very well that at this time, the colder he treated Qin Hongmian and Mu Wanqing, the greater the chance that the mother and daughter would survive.
"Originally I wanted to spare your life, but now it seems that I can't." Duan Yanqing's voice was ferocious, and he was murderous.
As long as Duan Zhengchun is killed, even if an illegitimate child does appear in the future, he will definitely be labeled as "unknown origin" and will not be qualified to compete with his own son for the throne!
Duan Zhengchun's expression changed, and he deeply felt the cold murderous intent revealed on Duan Yanqing's body.
"Haha~."
Suddenly, a gentle chuckle sounded from the east window.
Duan Yanqing frowned and glanced coldly at the young-faced and crane-haired old man.
Duan Zhengchun, Qin Hongmian, and Mu Wanqing all looked at the east window.
"Your Excellency, do you want to meddle in other people's business?" Duan Yanqing said coldly.
The childlike-faced and crane-haired old man smiled and said: "I am already quite old, so naturally I won't mind my own business. However, when it comes to family matters, I can't ignore them."
"Family affairs?" Everyone was stunned.
"Your Excellency... your surname is Duan?" Duan Yanqing asked with narrowed eyes.
Duan Zhengchun's heart moved, and he thought, could this old man be a senior expert of the Duan family in Dali?
The childlike-faced and gray-haired old man shook his head.
"Not Duan?" The hope Duan Zhengchun had just raised fell back.
"Then what did you mean when you just said... family matters?" Duan Yanqing asked with a frown.
The childlike-looking old man with heavy hair picked up the goose-feather fan on the dining table, pointed at Duan Zhengchun, and suddenly smiled and said: "Family affairs refers to..."
"The old man is his father."
