"Oh, it's Mr. Mo. Please forgive me for not coming out to greet you."
After knowing Mo Qingyun's identity, Pan Yong cupped his hands in greeting.
From the looks of it, he had long heard of some of Mo Qingyun's deeds.
"You're too kind."
Mo Qingyun hurriedly waved his hand at Pan Yong's actions.
After exchanging pleasantries with Mo Qingyun and the others, Pan Yong ordered a table of dishes to be served. Everyone sat in the courtyard and chatted as they ate.
"Pan Yong, we've come to find you this time because we have something to discuss with you."
After catching up with Pan Yong for a while, Shi Wende did not beat around the bush and began to explain his intentions. "I've already promised Princess Zishu that I'll help her restore the previous dynasty. We're here to look for you to help us."
"Restore the dynasty?"
Pan Yong's face was filled with shock when he heard Shi Wende's words.
After calming himself down, Pan Yong's expression turned solemn. He said in a deep voice, "Master, restoring the dynasty is not a joke. You should know better than me how powerful Wang Xiao and the others are. They're definitely not people we can fight against."
Shi Wende was shocked when he saw Pan Yong's attitude. He was surprised by Pan Yong's reaction.
In his memory, Pan Yong had always been looking for Wang Zishu and wanted to help her restore the previous dynasty.
Now, when it was time for him to make a move, he was actually hesitating.
To Shi Wende, this situation was too strange.
Although he was somewhat puzzled, Shi Wende did not think too much about it. He opened his mouth to persuade Pan Yong, "Although our current strength is somewhat lacking compared to Wang Xiao and the others, we can deal with them while quickly accumulating strength."
"I believe that the remaining loyal people of the previous dynasty will definitely come to our aid when they know that Princess Zishu is still alive. With the help of the Heavenly Bull Divine Sect, we might be able to fight against Wang Xiao and the others."
"This …"
Pan Yong fell silent when he heard Shi Wende's words. He was hesitant.
Seeing Pan Yong's reaction, Shi Wende and the others did not rush him. They quietly allowed Pan Yong to consider.
Pan Yong was silent for a moment. Then, he looked at Wang Zishu and said, "Your highness, this matter is of great importance. Please allow me to consider it carefully."
"Alright!"
Wang Zishu kindly agreed to Pan Yong's request.
Seeing Pan Yong's behavior, Shi Wende, who was sitting next to him, frowned again.
Although he couldn't pinpoint what was wrong with Pan Yong, his behavior today was somewhat abnormal.
"Prime Minister, we'll give you one day. I believe it's enough time for you to seriously consider it."
Looking at the hesitant Pan Yong, Mo Qingyun's expression turned serious and he gave him a time limit.
Mo Qingyun couldn't possibly wait here endlessly for Pan Yong to slowly consider.
"Alright!"
Pan Yong nodded at Mo Qingyun's request.
Following this, everyone chatted with each other and did not talk about reviving the Kingdom.
After all, Pan Yong did not agree to assist Wang Zishu, so it was not good to say too many details.
After so many years, Mo Qingyun and the others couldn't guarantee that Pan Yong wouldn't have any other thoughts.
A few hours later.
After everyone toasted each other, Mo Qingyun stood up and said goodbye to Pan Yong. "Prime Minister, we'll come back tomorrow. I hope you can help us."
"Mr. Mo, I have plenty of guest rooms here. Why do you have to stay elsewhere?"
Seeing that Mo Qingyun wanted to find another place to stay, Pan Yong hurriedly urged him to stay and immediately asked someone to prepare a guest room.
"No need to trouble yourself. It's fine if we find another place to stay."
However, before Pan Yong could finish speaking, Mo Qingyun declined with a faint smile, "It won't be long before we're going to deal with Wang Xiao and the others. If we stay here, even if you don't join us, I'm afraid you'll be implicated."
Shi Wende nodded in agreement with Mo Qingyun's point of view. That was indeed the case.
"Thank you for your trouble, Mr. Mo. I won't keep you."
Seeing that Mo Qingyun had made up his mind, Pan Yong stopped persuading him. "I'll think about it tonight. I'll give you an answer tomorrow."
"Okay!"
Mo Qingyun nodded indifferently at Pan Yong's words. He said to Wang Zishu and the others, "Let's go first. We'll come back tomorrow."
Then, Mo Qingyun and the others left to find another restaurant to stay in.
"It's hard to be loyal and filial!"
Looking at the backs of Mo Qingyun and the others, Pan Yong's expression was pained. He couldn't help but sigh.
Mo Qingyun and the others didn't know about Pan Yong's behavior. Otherwise, they would have noticed something.
"Master, what do you think Prime Minister Pan will choose tomorrow?"
After coming out of the Mediocre Restaurant, Mo Qingyun asked directly. He wanted to know Shi Wende's thoughts.
Hearing Mo Qingyun's question, Shi Wende's old face tensed up. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "I originally thought that Pan Yong would take the initiative to ask Princess Zishu to restore her country when he saw her arrival. I didn't expect him to show hesitation when we invited him. This is really unexpected. It makes me feel a little strange."
After hearing Shi Wende's thoughts, Mo Qingyun's expression gradually turned cold. He was a little unhappy with Pan Yong.
Pan Yong's hesitation was different from Shi Wende's.
Previously, Shi Wende was disheartened. In addition, he was worried about Wang Zishu's safety. That was why he hesitated whether to help restore the country.
However, Pan Yong was full of thoughts. He was unwilling to help Wang Zishu. There must be some secret.
"Did he lose to the nobles?"
Mo Qingyun muttered to himself. His expression turned even colder.
Feeling Mo Qingyun's coldness, Shi Wende's old face trembled. He could not help but feel worried for Pan Yong.
The young man in front of him was not someone who was easy to talk to.
If Pan Yong really had any ulterior motives, Mo Qingyun would definitely not hesitate to make a move and strangle this threat.
"Let's see what he decides tomorrow!"
Mo Qingyun withdrew his coldness. He greeted everyone and walked into a restaurant.
For Mo Qingyun, it was meaningless to think about it now. Everything would wait until tomorrow.
…
At night, in the City Lord's Mansion.
A man in black came to the City Lord's Mansion. He whispered to the City Lord's bedroom, "Princess Zishu is not dead. They are now living in the Yunxiang Restaurant."
"Princess Zishu? The princess of the previous dynasty?"
Hearing the voice outside the house, the City Lord of Xiangyun City, Zhou Zhengyu, had a look of surprise on his face.
This news really shocked him. It was something he had never thought of.
"If I capture this princess of the previous dynasty, I will definitely get His Majesty's reward."
Zhou Zhengyu sneered. He walked out of the bedroom with a strong sense of expectation.
Coming out of the bedroom, he immediately gathered his men and surrounded the Yunxiang Restaurant.
Zhou Zhengyu arrived here. He did not immediately launch an attack. Instead, he set up an array formation outside the restaurant.
