"Alright! I'll have to trouble you then! "Chu Mo said.
"You're too kind, Young Master." Zhao Er stuck out his huge belly and seemed to want to bow to Chu Mo. But no matter how he looked at it, it was just too round.
After that, Chu Mo did not stay there for too long. He declined Zhao Er's hospitality and found an inn to stay in.
Firstly, Chu Mo was not familiar with Zhao Er and did not want to disturb him too much. He also wanted to leave some leeway for himself. After all, people could not be completely trusted! He was Wang Dafa's confidant, but not Chu Mo's.
Besides, Chu Mo had another purpose in coming to Da Qi - medicinal herbs!
Almost all the top-grade medicinal herbs in Da Xia had been plundered by Xia Jing. Even many medicinal herbs in Da Qi were bought by Xia Jing at a high price.
Therefore, it was almost impossible to find those top-grade medicinal herbs in the market. Therefore, Chu Mo turned his attention to Da Qi.
Whether it was Da Qi or Da Xia, most of the aristocrats had some top-grade medicinal herbs. These medicinal herbs were used to save lives. At the same time, high-grade medicinal herbs also represented a kind of wealth.
For the aristocrats and ministers who were not short of money, they would not easily take out these things.
Chu Mo decided to explore the mansions of the aristocrats and ministers to see if they had the medicinal herbs that his Master needed.
At night, Chu Mo intended to leave the little Shiba Inu at the inn. After comforting it, the little Shiba Inu refused to leave him. Chu Mo had no choice but to put it in his pocket. Fortunately, the little guy was only a little bigger than a palm. Ordinary people would not find it if he put it in his pocket.
After leaving the inn, he found a remote place and once again disguised himself as a young man in his thirties. He used his movement technique and quietly moved towards the area where the aristocrats of Da Qi lived.
The first house that Chu Mo entered should be a prince's mansion in Da Qi. The whole mansion occupied a large area. If an ordinary person were to enter, they would probably get lost.
However, this was not a problem for Chu Mo. The architecture of Da Qi was similar to that of Da Xia. Generally speaking, there were only a few places to store treasures.
It was either the Patriarch's room, or it was near the Patriarch's room.
The defense of this mansion was not weak, and there were people patrolling everywhere. He even raised a few big wolfdogs, which looked very mighty.
Chu Mo retracted his aura, and like a specter, he passed through the patrolling guards. While thinking about how to avoid those big dogs, the little Shiba Inu on Chu Mo's body seemed to have sensed something and emitted a little breath.
As a result, those big dogs that seemed to be somewhat vigilant all obediently lay there, shivering. Chu Mo was slightly startled, then he smiled and patted the little Shiba Inu in his pocket.
He thought to himself, 'It's really lucky that I brought this little guy along.'
After that, Chu Mo quietly snuck into the inner chamber of the mansion.
At this time, the owner of this mansion should not be asleep yet, as the lights in the room were still on. Looking out of the window, he saw several figures moving inside.
Chu Mo completely hid in the darkness, listening to the movements in the room.
A man's voice sounded, "If we can win this battle, the fate of the whole Da Qi will go up another level. It's really worth celebrating. At that time, Your Highness's contribution will also be quite great! "
Chu Mo was slightly startled, thinking to himself, 'What a coincidence! I picked the biggest mansion to enter, and it turned out to be the mansion of a prince? '
At this time, another young voice sounded, "What's the use of that? Father is obviously partial to Third Uncle. In the end, it's still those who have entered the sect who have the advantage. "
A low voice sounded, "Don't talk nonsense, after all, that's your uncle!"
The young voice sounded a little unconvinced, "Father is kind-hearted, if it were me …"
"Enough!" The low voice sounded a little impatient, "Don't talk nonsense about this kind of royal affairs in the future!"
The previous man's voice sounded, "Second Brother, don't always talk about the child. What the child said is not without reason. "
"Fifth Brother, why do you say that too?" The low voice said, "Although Third Brother lost in the northern grasslands, it wasn't actually his fault. It's said that the youth called Lin Bai is extremely monstrous. If it were anyone else, I'm afraid they would also suffer a great loss at his hands. "
"I don't believe it, he's just a brat younger than me." The young voice sounded, full of dissatisfaction, "He just relied on his good luck and unintentionally destroyed our plan on the grasslands …"
"Unintentionally?" The low voice laughed coldly, "Jiang Zhongen, you're really childish. If you had half of Lin Bai's ability, I would have to burn incense to the ancestors!"
"Father, you just don't trust me, you don't give me a chance to train!" The young voice sounded, "If I were given a chance to train, I would definitely do better than him!"
"Heh … you want a chance? Alright then … I'll arrange for you to enter the army later. Start as a small soldier like your Third Uncle. Can you do it? "The low voice said.
"Definitely!" The young man said.
Chu Mo listened for a while and guessed their identities from their conversation.
The one who stayed in this residence should be the Da Qi Kingdom's Second Prince, which was also the one with the low voice.
The young man was his son, Jiang Zhongen.
The other man was the Da Qi Kingdom's Fifth Prince.
Chu Mo couldn't help but laugh bitterly. He had actually stumbled into the home of the Da Qi Kingdom's royal family.
Moreover, from their conversation, Chu Mo had obtained a lot of useful information. This included some military deployments and the like.
Chu Mo didn't know that at this moment, the inn he had chosen was already surrounded by a group of experts with powerful auras! In the shadows, there were even many soldiers armed with heavy crossbows lying in ambush!
Zhao Er, who was as fat as a ball, was hiding in the shadows with a few people, talking in low voices.
"Shopkeeper Zhao, are you sure … this person is the Chu Mo who stirred up a storm in Yan Huang City a while ago?" An elderly man looked at Zhao Er with a burning gaze.
Zhao Er nodded. "I can't be completely sure, but there's an 80 to 90% chance that it's that person. In the letter, Wang Dafa told me to fully cooperate with him in investigating the Da Qi Kingdom's military situation. Thinking back to before, Wang Dafa's actions in Yan Huang City seemed to be the closest to Chu Mo! Moreover, Chu Mo has another identity. He's the grandson of a general of Da Xia … and recently disappeared. All in all, this person is very likely to be him! "
"Sigh, who would have thought that even Wang Dafa would be embroiled in this. He's no longer a qualified merchant. "Wang Dafa sighed, and his eyes were filled with regret.
"You're not one either," the elderly man said plainly.
"Zhao Er was never a merchant." A faint light flashed in Zhao Er's eyes. He said softly, "I'm indebted to Wang Dafa, and I've always remembered that. But now that the Green Dragon Hall has been destroyed, everyone has scattered. I have to think for myself. The place where I stand is not Da Xia. "
