Chapter 1021 Duan Xingzhi dies

The army slowly stopped.

Zhang Jue led Zhang Hongwei, Liu Zhuwen and others to slowly walk out of the military formation.

"Welcome the Marshal's Triumph!"

He and dozens of officials in Wuzhou hurriedly bowed to Zhang Jue and others.

The Song Dynasty court was no longer in the previous situation of strong civil and weak military affairs. These civil officials dared not neglect Zhang Jue and others at all.

Zhang Jue smiled faintly on his face, "You are kind to you. It is our duty to fight bloody battles for the country and the people, and we should not welcome everyone like this."

"Get it, get it."

He Wuzhou Magistrate raised his head and said repeatedly: "The Marshal has shown the prestige of our Song Dynasty in this battle, and he should be a role model for me."

As he said that, he secretly praised him, "If you are a martial artist, it would be great. Follow the marshal to kill Dali, that would be a pleasure."

However, Zhang Jue sighed softly and shook his head, stopping talking.

Some words are meaningless to say.

In the autumn of the national crisis, these martial arts were indeed hard-working and made enviable. But how many soldiers gave their lives to get it back?

If you have to worry about it, although civil servants have been busy in recent years, they are still much better than military generals.

It's so satisfying.

But who is really happy in his heart?

Seeing that Zhang Jue stopped talking to Wuzhou, the magistrate of Wuzhou, he secretly winked at an official next to him.

The official shouted to the people on both sides of the official road: "What are you doing when you are standing there? Reward us the warriors who have returned from triumphantly!"

Finally, the people walked towards the army.

However, no one of the soldiers in the army took over the food they had, but just stood still.

Some soldiers couldn't help but burst into tears when they saw that the food was brought by their parents, but they didn't reach out to pick them up.

There is discipline in the army.

This made the parents cry too.

If so, who would be willing to send his children to the army to join the army?

Many people have a good family to have many children these days, but which one is not their own flesh and blood?

The most painful thing in the world is the white hair.

But how many people can go back after the wars since ancient times?

This time I am glad to see the child return triumphantly. Who can say exactly how many more will you meet in this life?

The families of the Imperial Army of the Song Dynasty were all treated with preferential treatment, and many families were also honoring their ancestors because of this. But most people felt guilty about the children who joined the army.

This preferential treatment and this glory are all brought back by the children with all their lives!

But who can blame the emperor?

If the Song Dynasty does not fight, it will only be destroyed by the Yuan Dynasty or Dali and other countries. At that time, it will be difficult to have a complete egg after the collapse of the nest. Who can live as well as it is now?

"You've accepted it all, don't let down the good intentions of the villagers."

Zhang Jue was silent for a while and finally sighed lightly.

In the army, soldiers and parents hugged their heads and cried bitterly.

The soldiers took the food from the villagers with red eyes and swallowed it voraciously.

But it's not because of hunger.

This mouthful of food is all the concern of the villagers. It is also possible that it will be a farewell meal.

A battle between Yongzhou and Dali was enough for the soldiers to recognize that the Song Dynasty was far from stable.

The peace talks between the Song and Yuan dynasties did not mean that the Song Dynasty could truly rest for five years. If the world was not unified, there would be no real peace. These imperial guards would always bear the mission.

Dali Capital.

A handsome young man came into the city with an energetic old man.

Duan Qilin and an old man in gray robe.

This old man in gray robe is not the Lord of the Pojun Palace, but judging from the momentum, it seems to be much worse than the Lord of the Pojun Palace. Obviously, he is also a leader in the Pojun Academy.

The two walked through the street that still seemed a little sad, and walked all the way to the palace without any conversation.

When he arrived outside the palace gate, he was stopped by the guards.

Duan Qilin took off a piece of silver from his waist.

The guards' expressions changed slightly and they all fell to the ground, "Kow to the Prince!"

Duan Xingzhi of Dali Country is so arrogance. At present, the king is said to be in danger of his life, and His Royal Highness of the Crown Prince has indeed come back.

These guards did not know Duan Qilin, the mysterious prince, but they could recognize the square seal in his hand.

This is the imperial seal.

There have been rumors that the king had handed over the jade seal to His Royal Highness early, as if he was just taking charge of the Dali Kingdom on behalf of the prince. I didn't expect that this was the case.

These guards may not know much about the affairs of the Dali court, but at this moment, they suddenly understood why there was no undercurrent in the court these days.

Those royal relatives who were likely to ascend the throne were all very honest and had no intention of coveting the throne. I am afraid... they had known the emperor's wishes for a long time?

They are naturally different.

Duan Xingzhi was dying. It was actually not that important who he wanted to ascend the throne. The royal family members of Dali did not dare to covet the throne, but were actually afraid of Duan Qilin.

Although Duan Qilin is not in Dali for many years, how many of the senior officials in Dali don’t know the energy and means of this crown prince?

Qin Han, who had once vigorously promoted the establishment of the Dali Imperial Army, wasn’t that mysterious young man the subordinate of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?

After the establishment of the Imperial Army, the king Duan Xingzhi obeyed Qin Han's intentions for the appointment of the generals in the army.

Oh.

The imperial guards in Dali are better than the imperial guards of His Royal Highness.

The emperor had already handed over the military power of the country to the crown prince, and he was just a name for himself before he ascended the throne. If the crown prince was willing, he would have abdicated to the emperor.

Who dares to covet the throne easily?

That's asking for death.

Duan Qilin looked at him without squintingly, took the jade seal back, and walked straight into the palace with the old man in the gray robe.

The commander of the Imperial Guard thought about it and would still lead people behind him. This would prevent someone from rushing to the crown prince.

Moreover, the prince's ascends the throne is a foregone conclusion, so he doesn't want to miss the opportunity to show his face in front of the prince's palace.

Duan Qilin did not make any statement about this.

All the way to the depths of the palace.

More and more people know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince returns to the palace and all the guards along the way kneel down.

Finally, when Duan Qilin arrived at Duan Xingzhi's bedroom, the news of his return to the palace was naturally towards the outside of the palace.

The civil and military ministers outside the palace were instantly relieved.

The time for the handover of the throne is coming, and it will not have no effect on them.

Xiangtai Palace.

Walking to the door of Duan Xingzhi's bedroom, Duan Qilin looked up at the door plaque, and suddenly sighed, "It's still a little early after all..."

I don't know what he is regretting.

Then, he walked towards the hall. The old man in gray robe was also following him.

In the bedroom, Duan Xingzhi, who was terminally ill, was lying on the bed, his face pale.

There are several noble women wearing golden hairpins and Baoyu on the side. Although they are not young, they can be seen as stunning when they are young.
