Duan Xing Zhi held a banquet at the mansion that Duan Fei Yun had stayed at before the feudal fiefdom was bestowed upon her. Some of the more active guests started to arrive one after another. It seemed like the time had almost come, but the Four Protectors and Duan Fei Yun hadn't arrived yet. Duan Xingzhi couldn't help but find it strange, so he went to look for Qu Hongyan.

Qu Hongyan was also at Duan Fei Yun's residence. She stayed here last night, and everything had been prepared in order to celebrate Duan Fei Yun's birth.

"Princess, according to the message that Protector Zhang sent this morning, if they had rushed over from Tengchong before sunrise, they should have arrived by now. Why haven't they seen Princess Qingyun and the four protectors yet?" When Duan Xingzhi saw Qu Hongyan, he directly spoke of the doubts in his heart.

Qu Hongyan stood up from her chair, she was not anxious at all, and said: "It's not like you don't know Yun'er's temper. Presumably, he had been delayed along the way. But just as you said, we should be close. "

Duan Xingzhi smiled bitterly and said, "I'm counting on what the wangfei has to say." "Even if the princess was a playful person, it would still take six hours for her to get to Dali. It's almost been four hours since then …"

"If Your Majesty is not at ease, why don't you send a few people to inquire along the way." Qu Hongyan said.

"That's exactly what I was thinking." Duan Xingzhi nodded.

"Your Majesty need not worry. With the four protectors here, Yun'er should be fine as well. "Your majesty, please sit down and have a cup of tea." As Qu Hongyan spoke, she got up and poured Duan Xingzhi a cup of tea.

The tea in the south of Yunnan was the famous "Pu tea". At this moment, Qu Hongyan was brewing this exact tea for Duan Xingzhi. However, the Royal Family's Pu tea was not like the Pu'er bought by ordinary people. These were all specially bought by local officials from tea merchants for Duan Xingzhi to drink.

Duan Xingzhi liked to drink tea. This was not a secret. Therefore, these officials all threw their bets at him. Needless to say, good local tea was not needed. They could even get a lot of famous tea from the Central Plains.

When Duan Xingzhi heard the word 'tea', his mood also improved slightly. He walked over and sat down, smiling leisurely. "I have quite a few good teas, but unfortunately, none of them are as skilled as Princess Hua-Yang in brewing tea. I still like to drink the tea made by the princess. "

Qu Hongyan smiled and said, "Your Majesty knows how to joke around too. Isn't the tea that I make the same type as the tea that the people around you make?

"No and no. The tea was the same, but how to make it was the most important thing that affected the taste of the tea. For example, the water temperature, the amount of tea … " Duan Xingzhi shook his head and smiled.

He extended his hand and picked up the tea that Qu Hongyan had brewed for him, before slowly bringing it to the tip of his nose. A faint fragrance wafted out from the teacup.

Duan Xingzhi liked drinking tea, so he had a deep understanding of the Way of Tea. He was also a person who was extremely good at tasting tea.

"Fresh and sweet, not pungent …" Princess Hua-Yang's cooking skills are getting better and better! " Duan Xingzhi lightly took a sip before praising.

However, at this moment, an outsider came to report that the Four Protectors had returned. When Duan Xingzhi heard this, he hurriedly put down the teacup in his hand and said, "Summon them in quickly."

Zhang Yiquan and the other three entered the room very quickly, but all of them had unnatural expressions on their faces. Duan Xing Zhi didn't notice Duan Fei Yun, so he asked curiously: "Guard Zhang, why aren't you seeing the princess?"

Zhang Yi Quan hesitated for a moment, he looked at Qu Hong Yan and said: "Reporting to the King, the Princess, the Princess was kidnapped by someone!"

"What?!" Duan Xingzhi was shocked, "How can this be?" Aren't the four of you here to protect the princess? Why was it still taken away by someone? "

Qu Hongyan who was at the side also frowned.

Zhang Yi Quan immediately knelt down on one knee, and the other three people also looked at each other as they kneeled in front of him.

"This matter is all your fault, your subordinate's guardian. Please punish me, your highness!" Zhang Yiquan didn't try to defend himself.

Just as Duan Xing Zhi was about to get angry, he raised his hand and put it down, "Will this duke punish you to save the princess? Tell me in detail, who took the princess away? "

Duan Xingzhi was not a brainless person. If Zhang Yizhu had any excuses for him, then he would definitely go into a rage and ruthlessly curse these four people.

Zhang Yi didn't try to defend himself. Adding on Duan Ling Tian's understanding of Duan Fei Yun's personality, there was definitely something that was difficult to explain.

"Protector Zhang, the martial arts of the four of you can be said to be one of the best." Who is the other party to actually be able to snatch the princess away from you four? " Qu Hongyan was also surprised.

"To the Crown Princess. The person who took the princess away is not an ordinary person, but the Imperial Advisor, Fu Kexin. " At this point, Zhang Yi Quan paused for a second and continued, "This person's martial arts is not inferior to our four men's, and he even injured our third brother. At that time, the princess was riding at the front on her own, and this subject was right behind her. However, she was still unable to rescue the princess in time.

"Tofu?" Duan Xingzhi was stunned, "I, Dali, and Fan Fan have never committed any offense. How could he, a mere Imperial Advisor, have the guts to make a move on Princess Dali? And this king has even personally conferred the title of princess! "

Duan Xingzhi's eyes were filled with rage as he spoke up to this point. If what Zhang Yizhu said was true, then this Fan Xian wouldn't even put him in his eyes. How could Duan Xingzhi tolerate this?

Zhang Yizhu knew that this matter was of great importance and said, "Go back to your majesty. From this voodoo man's words, I learned that he did not kidnap the princess for the purpose of the war between the two countries. "But …"

"But what?" Duan Xingzhi said.

Zhang Yi Quan looked towards Qu Hong Yan.

"Protector Zhang, if you have something to say, you can say it." Qu Hongyan said.

"This Volkswagen wanted his subject to inform his wife that he wanted her to bring the" Faceless Divine Art "secret scripture to find him at the Temple of Bitterness outside the city in three days' time. And you are only allowed to go by yourself, the princess. If there is anyone else, Volkswagen would not be able to guarantee the princess' safety! " Zhang Yiquan said fearfully.

"How dare you!" Duan Xingzhi slapped his hand on the table, "How can a little monk like him see my consort so easily?!" There is no need to wait for three days, I, this king, will order the four of you to bring people to seal off the Coldfrost Temple outside the city. If he does not hand over the princess, he will not be able to leave Dali! "

Duan Xingzhi was truly infuriated. Perhaps he was only slightly enraged that Duan Ling Tian had been kidnapped. But regarding Qu Hongyan, that was his bottom line. He couldn't bear it.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to be angry. Your consort already knows what is going on. I have also heard of that Fukui Ji. He is the Guardian King of the Great Zhaoge Temple of the Tufan Continent. His martial arts are profound and he has learned the two ultimate techniques of the Seventy Two Great Skills of the Young Master Lin. He wanted my Non-Phase Divine Art, but because his ancestors secretly learned the side techniques from my sect, they thought that my Non-Phase Divine Art had stolen from them. " Qu Hongyan slowly said, "This matter cannot be blamed on the Four Protectors. "Furthermore, the princess is mischievous by nature. I'll let her suffer a little, and let her understand that life is not all smooth sailing …"

When Duan Xingzhi heard this, he frowned and said, "But the princess is still in his hands …"

Hearing that, Qu Hong Yan smiled, and said: "Since this Fu Ke Hao had created something from nothing, I have not identified the reason, I have long since seen that he is not used to it." "Now that he's delivered himself onto my doorstep, I really want to see just how his kung fu is …"

"But an imperial concubine has an honorable identity. You can just hand over the matter of saving the princess to the four great protectors. Why would you need to take the risk yourself? " Duan Xingzhi hesitated.

With regards to Qu Hongyan's words, Duan Xingzhi had always kept his word. If Qu Hongyan felt that something was amiss, Duan Xingzhi wouldn't object.

Qu Hongyan faintly smiled and said: "Your Highness, don't forget, the other party only allowed me to go by name. If there is anyone else, it will only harm the princess. Your Majesty, you can rest assured that your concubine will have a way to deal with such a trifling weasel. "

Duan Xingzhi wanted to say something, but when he heard how determined Qu Hongyan was, he choked back the words that were about to leave his mouth.

"Then, does consort Wang need any other help?" This King really won't be able to rest easy. " In the end, Duan Xingzhi added.

Qu Hongyan shook her head, and said, "I'm afraid that the feast that the princess is having will not be held as scheduled. And the king told them that the princess was ill and could not come. The next day, when the princess recovered, he would make another one. "This will do."

"Princess Hua-Yang's thoughts were right after all. This King will immediately instruct someone to do it. " Duan Xingzhi nodded.

Zhang Yiquan heaved a sigh of relief. It would be the best if Qu Hongyan was willing to personally take action. After all, Duan Xingzhi did not fully understand how formidable Qu Hongyan's identity as one of the "seven men of unfettered freedom" that year was. Zhang Yi was half a martial artist, but he was very clear about it.
