Chapter 1686: Dragon Ascends the Three Districts, That'

ut I don't understand.""Could it be that you're still hiding something from me" Liu Qin stopped the car in front of a Chinese restaurant and turned her head, staring intently at Ye Fan. Her clear eyes...If Hainan is the pearl of the sea in China, then Dali should be the pearl of land.

Dali has a long history, not only because of the beautiful natural scenery of this city, but also because of its rich cultural heritage.

During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, Duan Siping, the military governor of Tonghai, led troops to Dali and established the Dali Kingdom.

From this point onwards, the surname " Duan" seemed to become a common surname in Dali.

Although there are countless people surnamed Duan throughout China, and countless others who don't share the surname in Dali alone, from some point onwards, whenever people mention famous figures from Dali, they instinctively think of those with the surname Duan.

Thus, the Dali Duan clan, like an indestructible cultural landscape, has been passed down through generations.

Fortunately, the descendants of the Dali Duan clan did not bury their surname.

During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Duan Jiaquan Li joined the army and defended Chinese territory with the blood of his entire family, thus establishing the Dali Duan clan's status in South China.

It's a pity.

Hearts are always lacking in some way.

The Duan family seemed unwilling to always be called the "Dali Duan clan," so they planned a series of power transfers north more than a decade ago.

Even before the revolution was successful, Duan Xiangning, a vanguard officer who had brought Duan's power north, was abandoned.

That utter surrender.

Giving up that which must be killed even if it is not dead.

Every time Lao Duan reminisced about the decision to send Duan Fu to the peninsula to secretly settle things with his sisters, Duan Xiangning and Duan Lingxing, he felt a profound melancholy of heroism fading and uncertainty.

It has already been decided to let these two granddaughters die in a foreign land, but after Duan Lingxing was brought back, Old Master Duan didn't utter a single word.

Signals have been sent to the Shen family in Jinghua that there will be no power play towards Beidu, yet Duan Xiang and Yue Jia Yue Qing are being betrothed. Old Master Duan offered no explanation.

Mr. Duan is a respected elder who is a heroic figure who has made enormous contributions to the country.

But heroes have families too.

Even heroes should think about the lives of their descendants.

So, after two consecutive broken promises, Lao Duan gradually delegated the power to manage the family by citing health issues.

After several generations, it was passed down to Emperor Cheng.

Duan Shouchang can do whatever he wants, even if he rips a hole in the sky. Old Duan would still try his best to cover for him, no matter how embarrassing it is.

But, Duan Shuhuang had a long reach. Old Master Duan wouldn't directly give any orders anymore.

I'm glad that Duan Chuhang isn't as useless as Lin Kangbai.

He wouldn't make any major blunders or irreversible mistakes. He would only help Dalian Duan Clan integrate more rapidly into the core circle of the Huaxia clan forces.

The Dali Duan clan's power won't stop at the northward migration.

The marriage alliance between Yue Qingke and Duan Xiang was a signal.

Based on Duan Shuzhuang's shrewdness, he wouldn't fail to see that the union between Yue Qingke and Duan Xiang was for a purpose.

Yue Qingke's former wife, Long Chengcheng, was taken away by Li Nanshan, this is the hatred of being robbed of his wife.

Duan Xiang, a fine young woman, was kicked into someone who could only spend the rest of her life on a high-backed chair by Li Nanfang. This is a deep grudge to the death.

Two people who hated Li Nanfang to the extreme, getting together, would only lead Li Nanfang to his death.

Duan Shu Huang looked down on such a union.

But he wouldn't stop, especially not Yue Qingke, someone who could potentially become the head of the Yue family in Jinghua.

Why is Yue Qingke possibly going to become the head of the Yue family

Isn't this simple

The current head of the Yue family, Yue Zitong, is just a woman after all.

Everyone saw clearly before, Yue Zisheng used the convenience that Li Nanshan brought her to become the head of the family for two years. She stabilized the Yue family after Yue Lao's death, and then she was inevitably pulled down by other members of the Yue family.

Even if Yue Zidong wanted to stay in the position of the head of the household, even with Li Nanshan's full support, so what

After all, Yue Zitong is still a woman.

Her descendants will undoubtedly be surnamed Li.

The Yue family is the Yue family because the head of the Yue family's surname is Yue.

If the Yue family were to become the Li family, not only would people within the family resist, but outsiders would also be ashamed of it.

One day, Yue Zitong will eventually give up the position of head of the family.

Therefore, the direct descendants of Yue Lao are only Yue Qingke.

Even if Yue Qingke was as useless as Lin Kangbai, he would still become the head of the Yue family.

Moreover, Yue Qingke's aura since parting ways with Long Chengcheng is absolutely more suitable to be the head of a family than countless talented peers.

Even if Duan Shuchang despised Yue Qingke's past behavior and now considered it foolish to be against Li Nanfang, he still had to maintain a superficially friendly relationship with Yue Qingke.

The decision to not make dumplings was made jointly by Duan Shouchang and Yue Qingke without discussing it beforehand.

Yue Qingke did this to lull Yue Zitong.

Look, I only married Duan Xiang because I like him. I don't want to play with people like Emperor Duan Shu, nor do I covet the position of the head of the Yue family by eyeing the strength of the Duan family.

Segment Emperor thus used this to numb the other families north of the Grand River.

Look, I really can't stand this Yue Qingke's brother-in-law. He came looking for me himself, when I never wanted to go through him in the first place. Then he used his connection with the Yue family to help the Dali Duan clan gain power in the north.

Both people are intelligent, and others aren't stupid either.

Everyone knows the two people's feud is fake, yet they are paralyzed by their actions.

After all, everyone likes to do less rather than more.

You take care of us on the face, and we take care of you on the face.

We will wait until the day Yue Qingke ascends to the position of head of the Yue family. Then, you will show your fangs, and we will meet you with our own ferocity.

As for when that day will come

Speak again.

Therefore, the emperor Duan Shuzhuang, who did not manage to reconcile with his wife, set off for Jinghua Yue's residence. He went there to help Yue Zisheng find Yue Zitong. After Yue's patriarch returned himself, he abandoned Yue Qingke and Duan Xiang, and returned to Dali alone.

A daughter who is married off is like water that has been spilled; it cannot be retrieved.

Duan Xiang should have stayed at Yue's family.

Yue Qingke and Duan Xiang somehow tripped up Yue Zitong at the Yue family. Duan Shuchang didn't know, nor did he want to know.

In short, whatever grievances Yue Zitong had suffered had nothing to do with him.

Duan Shushang's approach in this manner is undoubtedly very correct.

It's unlikely that Helan Fusu could ever achieve the same level of deception as Emperor Duan, who managed to make his superficial courtesy appear genuine.

When Helan Fussu faces the Yue family, he will be influenced by his feelings for Yue Ziting and lean towards her.

Duan Shoucheng would only stand on the interests of the Duan family. On both sides of Yue Zichong and Yue Qingke, he favored neither, yet courted both.

Because he knew very well that the power struggle within the Yue family was a completely unpredictable outcome.

On one hand, he was infatuated with Yue Qingke. On the other hand, he had to appease Yue Zidong.

To be precise, it was Li Nanfang behind An Qiao Yue Zi Tong.

So, even after Duan Shuhuang returned to the Duan family and was busy with countless affairs every day, he would still make time to spend an hour talking with his cousin, Duan Lingxing.

"Yue Ziyong is back"

After disappearing for three days, when Duan Shuhang reappeared before Duan Lingxing, it was as if her younger sister had undergone a complete transformation. The first thing she said was this question.

As soon as the words left his mouth, Duan Lingxing smiled again and shook his head. "Yes, she definitely came back. Otherwise, you wouldn't be back so quickly."

Even though Duan Xingming was speaking to Duan Shuhou, he acted as if he were talking to himself.

The disappearance of the head of the Yue family was a big deal, Duan Lingxing had no reason not to know.

Unlike others who worried about the whereabouts of the head of Yue,

Duan had never met Yue Ziting, nor would she care whether the woman was alive or dead. She only cared about her beloved brother-in-law's reaction to the matter.

“If my brother-in-law knew Yue Zitong was missing, he would definitely do everything in his power like he did when he rushed to the peninsula back then, for the woman he loves. But why did my brother-in-law leave me here all alone Doesn't he ever want to admit that I am his woman Right, what right do I have to be my brother-in-law's woman”

Duan Xing seemed possessed as he muttered to himself, unconcerned that Duan Shuchang, who was quietly listening beside him.

Think about it the other way around.

Within the entire Duan family, only Duan Shuchang and his cousin Duan Ning were able to allow Duan Lingxing to let go of all inhibitions.

Even her own parents and elder sister, she didn't want to look at them more, or speak to them.

Duan Shuhuang felt a little ashamed.

He came here to accompany Duan Xing, not out of sibling affection, but with the intention of winning over Li Nanfang's heart.

And the few survivors of death, such as Duan Xing, treated him as their only remaining relative.

Can Duan Shuhuang not feel ashamed of such a gap

"Even Li Nanshan has gone missing."

Duan Shushuang hesitated for a moment, but still said this sentence.

Finally, Duan Lingxing turned his head and looked at him squarely.

But that was just a fleeting glance, Duan Xing turned his head away: "Brother-in-law won't disappear. Brother-in-law is just going to take care of important business, no one knows where he's going."

Duan Zixing had reached an extreme level of admiration for Li Nanfang.

Even if someone chopped off Li Nanfang's head, she would believe that her brother-in-law could put it back on himself and then laughingly pull her into his arms and sing "My Sister Misses Her Brother (Tears Flow)".

Seeing Duan Lingxing's state, Duan Shuhuang felt a bit annoyed. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath before saying in a low voice, "Lingxing, I signed you up for the military training camp at the Hainan Military Region. You'll go there tomorrow."

As soon as these words were spoken, Duan Lingxing finally turned his entire body around, locking eyes with Duan Shuhou. Tears began to well up in his eyes.

As one of the four phoenixes of the Duan family, Duan Lingxing was once a promising figure expected to become a pillar of the family.

Duang Shuhuang is now the actual head of the household. She understands this very well.

The head of the family letting her leave to join the military, isn't that clearly a way to expel her from within the family

This is different from the reasons why Duan Xiangning and Duan Xiang left the Duan family. They both left after getting married, and they both married north of the Yangtze River, always keeping in touch with the Duan family.

Though people may leave, their hearts remain connected.

But she did.

She had no husband's family, and the place Duan Shuhuang arranged for her was still Hainan, even farther south than Dali.

This can only prove that this trip, she and the Duan family completely cut off contact.

"Brother, you can't even tolerate me anymore"

Duan, with tears welling in his eyes, choked out a question.

Duan Shouchang didn't say a word, and just turned and left.

That day, when the military vehicles heading to Hainan came to pick up Duan Ling, only Duan Ning remained at home to see him off.

Duan's spirit could be said to have completely collapsed.

If it weren't for her constant thoughts of her brother-in-law, she might have gone to a secluded place and hanged herself.

It was this despair that made Duan Lingxing lose awareness of where he was or what he should be doing.

Not until just now.

A roar like a dragon's, made Duan Lingxing, who had become nothing more than minced meat, turn his head.

She had heard this voice before.

Just as someone broke open the belly of a giant python and leaped out in room number seven of Longshan Villa in Hancheng.

This sound could only have been made by one person.

That's "Brother-in-law"!

That's why Duan Xing could walk out of the line without hesitation, staggering towards the source of the sound.

As a result, she stumbled and fell.

And just as she fell, the long howl abruptly stopped.
