On this day, Dali seemed to be calm, but in secret, there was a surging clouds.

Those great relatives and relatives were all in their hearts, so they wanted to tear Duan Qilin into pieces.

But in the end, no one dared to touch Duan Qilin's brow.

In the capital and in the palace, the imperial guards are not decorations. Whoever dares to make a move, these guards will be able to run to their mansion immediately to start a massacre.

The news of Duan Xingzhi's death spread, which made the already bleak Dali capital, which was once sad, suddenly felt even more sad.

Although Duan Xingzhi has not been able to expand his territory in the past few years, he has not had any major mistakes. The people in the country are still living a stable life, and he is truly sad about his death.

Shortly after the death was spread, rumors spread among the people. The former emperor had his descendants, but now he has returned from other places and is ready to ascend the throne to the great treasure.

These rumors were naturally spread by Duan Qilin.

People in the court know his existence, but the people may not know it. Only in this way can he not appear abrupt as he ascends the throne at that time.

This is probably why he did not ascend the throne immediately.

If the people knew his existence, he could have summoned all the ministers to discuss the throne at the moment Duan Xingzhi passed away.

It can't be said to be a discussion, maybe no one dares to have any objections. Duan Qilin still has this confidence.

Not long after that, Duan Qilin appeared in front of all civil and military officials as the prince of Dali. He personally organized Duan Xingzhi's funeral.

Duan Xingzhi was posthumously named Emperor Pingzong Shensheng Xiaozhang.

When reading Duan Xingzhi's posthumous title, Duan Qilin also officially took over the imperial seal symbolizing imperial power from his father-in-chief.

In the square in front, all the civil and military officials in Dali knelt down.

With military power in hand, Duan Qilin ascended the throne and treasure has become a foregone conclusion. At this moment, they are afraid that just thinking about how to continue to maintain their status is enough to cause trouble. It is impossible to seize power.

Only a few days later.

The capital of Dali is covered with snow, just like the scene when Li Wangyuan of Western Xia was buried.

Duan Xingzhi was covered in white and led all civil and military officials to send Duan Xingzhi's coffin into the imperial tomb. No one cared about the several imperial concubines who were buried with him.

Everyone could see that Duan Qilin wanted to intimidate his relatives. If he attacked him at this time, he would be self-destruction.

At this time, the news of Duan Xingzhi's death naturally spread to the Song Dynasty, Western Xia, Yuan Dynasty and other countries.

Such news cannot be concealed at all, and Duan Qilin has no intention of concealing it.

In Changsha City.

At this time, it had not snowed in Changsha, but the coolness was very cunning.

The coldness in the south is different from the northern one, just like the silent immersion of southern dialect, and the same is true for this coldness. It can always be soaked directly into the bones.

However, Zhao Dongting's imperial study room was warm and charming.

When the palace was established, although the economy was in short supply, there were still several ground dragons on the basement of the palace. In this cold season, countless charcoals were piled up in the ground dragons. Although it could not make the palace feel warm everywhere, the imperial study room, the emperor's and the queen mother's bedroom, and those important yamen would never feel the coolness.

At this moment, Zhao Dongting sat cross-legged on the bed in the imperial study room. On the desk in front of him, piles of memorials and secret letters were placed as usual.

Although he gave the power to the Ministry of State, these memorials would still be sent here to him for his review. Whether to read it or not is his own business.

Zhao Dongting read some of these memorials, but some of them did not read some of them. However, those secret letters have never been missed.

He has roughly decided the development direction of the entire country. If Lu Xiufu and others are worried, he doesn't need to worry too much. His main focus is on fighting against foreign enemies.

In this way, these secret letters are more important to him than memorials.

He picked up a secret letter on the table and opened it. Zhao Dongting had just glanced over, and his expression was slightly stunned and he murmured to himself, "Is Duan Xingzhi dead?"

This made Le Chan, who was next to him, unable to help but look at the secret letter in his hand.

Duan Xingzhi was the king of Dali, and his death could not be considered a trivial matter for this war-torn world.

The king of a country is enough to influence the direction of a dynasty.

"Duan Qilin..."

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Dongting's face showed an inexplicable look.

The secret letter said that His Highness the Crown Prince of Dali entered the country from Shu, took over the imperial seal, and ascended the throne was a foregone conclusion.

Duan Qilin, Zhao Dongting had never seen or heard of it. But at this moment, he could undoubtedly guess his identity.

A smile suddenly came out from the corner of his mouth, and Zhao Dongting murmured to himself again, "Duan Qilin... You are finally willing to come to the open..."

Le Chan did not know too much about the country, so she couldn't help but wonder and asked softly: "Prince, when will there be a crown prince in Dali?"

Zhao Dongting replied softly: "I am not sure, but I heard that Duan Xingzhi's queen did have children, and she died later. Haha, now it seems that Duan Xingzhi must have secretly crossed Chen Cang and sent the child to Shuzhong. In this way, there is no question why Shuzhong and Dali are in the same family."

As he said that, he frowned slightly, "I just don't know whether Duan Qilin was the master of Shuzhong who was accomplished by his own ability, or his father Duan Xingzhi had already secretly conquered the people in Shuzhong, and just asked him to go there to experience it. However, even if it was the latter, Duan Qilin could suppress the entire Shuzhong and let Guigu Academy and Pojun Academy help him strongly, it should not be underestimated."

Zhao Dongting never dared to underestimate people of this era, but at this time, he still felt a little emotional.

Duan Qilin is not old. He has achieved such achievements at this age. Even if he goes to modern society, he will definitely be an outstanding genius.

If it weren't for his previous life that he had lived for decades, Zhao Dongting felt that he might not be enough for Duan Qilin and the others. At least from the point of view of scheming and scheming, this is true.

Qin Han is almost the same.

I think there are many such young men in Guigu Academy.

Are these guys growing up cannibalism?

Le Chan seemed a little worried, "If this is the case, wouldn't Dali be even more difficult to deal with when Duan Qilin ascends the throne?"

Zhao Dongting shook his head gently and smiled, "As long as our Song Dynasty imperial guards can continue to be strong, then no matter how powerful he is, it will be useless."

After saying this, his eyes couldn't help but look at Yunjing, who was standing at the door holding Zhanlu.

This woman's words did wake him up and make him particularly useful to this day.

The eight winds cannot blow, sit upright on the purple golden lotus.

Regardless of whether Dali or whether the Yuan Dynasty will become stronger, as long as the Song Dynasty continues to develop like this, Zhao Dongting will be confident that he will eventually win the whole world.
