"What?" Chu Mo was taken aback and looked at Xu Fufu in disbelief.
"Grandfather said … following you won't be wrong," Xu Fufu said seriously as he looked at Chu Mo.
"But …" Chu Mo frowned slightly. He knew Xu Fufu too well and knew that Xu Fufu wouldn't lie, but this joke … was a little too much.
The grandson of the Cabinet Chief was following a feudal lord … what was going on?
Could it be that Old Master Xu Zhongliang was not afraid of criticism at all?
Xu Fufu said softly, "Actually, you should know that the real top aristocratic families won't put all their eggs … into one basket."
"I understand this, but my side … is so sensitive. Isn't Grandfather Xu afraid?" Chu Mo looked at Xu Fufu.
"There's nothing to be afraid of." Xu Fufu said, "The Emperor's actions … have somewhat lost the hearts of the people. Of course, the real people don't know this. The Emperor may think that he has a way to pull you down from the position of national hero and make you a national sinner in the blink of an eye. However, justice is in the hearts of the people. The people don't know about it, but it doesn't mean that the officials in the court don't know about it. "
"So what? Who dares to resist?" Chu Mo said with a smile.
"Am I not resisting?" Xu Fufu said with a relaxed smile, "Actually, Grandfather is also resisting! You see, General Fang … will probably look for you. "
"General Fang is looking for me? Why is he looking for me? " Chu Mo looked at Xu Fufu in confusion. Chu Mo would believe anyone in Da Xia who would be disloyal to the Emperor, but Fang Mingtong … Chu Mo didn't believe it!
Because Fang Mingtong was a good brother who grew up with the Emperor!
That kind of relationship was like the relationship between Chu Mo and Xu Fufu. It was impossible for them to stab each other in the back!
The matter between Chu Mo and the Imperial Family, regardless of who was right or wrong, as long as Fang Mingtong was biased towards Chu Mo, it was the same as stabbing the Emperor with a knife!
"General Fang will try his best to comfort you because he has always been optimistic about your role and development in the army. I heard from my grandfather that because of you, he had a big fight with the emperor. But in the end, he still compromised. "Xu Fufu said," But I believe that he will definitely talk to you. "
"There's nothing to talk about." Chu Mo said indifferently, "I won't talk to him."
In Chu Mo's eyes, Fang Mingtong was also a person worthy of respect. Although his relationship with Da Xia's royal family wasn't completely broken, a crack had already appeared. The better he developed in the future, the deeper this crack would be. As for when it would be completely broken, it would depend on Da Xia's attitude.
Therefore, it would be futile to talk to Fang Mingtong. It was meaningless.
Then, the grand conferment ceremony began.
The first to go on stage to receive the award was Old Master Fan Wudi!
This old general who had been in the army all his life was directly conferred the title of General of Three Moons.
The entire scene was filled with thunderous cheers!
Everyone was cheering for the old general.
With this conferment, Fan Wudi also had a considerable status in the Da Xia army.
According to the military merits, this was what the old general deserved.
However, if it wasn't for Chu Mo, the old general would probably only be able to get the title of General of Three Moons at most, and that would be after the war was completely over.
When Chu Mo heard that his grandfather was conferred the title of General of Three Moons, he was relieved because he was afraid that … the Emperor would directly confer the title of General of the Silver Dragon to his grandfather!
If that was really the case, things would really be difficult to handle!
There were not many General of the Silver Dragon in the entire Da Xia. If it was really given to the old master, it was almost impossible for the old master to follow Chu Mo to the fief.
Unless he rebelled!
But if that happened, the old master's illustrious reputation would be completely destroyed.
Presumably, the Emperor had racked his brains and put in a lot of effort to appease Fan Wudi and Chu Mo, the grandfather and grandson.
The old master had the title of General of Three Moons. But the real power … was not mentioned at all!
There was not even any arrangement!
In fact, this was already equivalent to telling the old master that in the future, he would be the real big boss of the Da Xia army! However, it was better for him to retire at home!
To enjoy his old age in peace!
This was the attitude of the Emperor of Da Xia towards Fan Wudi.
This conferment was personally conferred to the old master by the Grand Marshal … the Golden Dragon General Military Mingtong. The imperial edict was also written by the Emperor himself, which could be considered as giving the old master enough face.
Therefore, after the old master stepped down from the stage, he was also full of smiles and looked extremely happy.
But in fact, only Chu Mo knew that the reason why his grandfather was happy was because of love!
Then, the conferment of Chu Mo's title began.
The conferment of a king … This kind of thing had to be done by the Emperor himself.
Under the envious and jealous gazes of countless people, Chu Mo used both hands to receive the official seal, the nobility's sword, and other things that symbolized his status from the Emperor's hands.
The Emperor stood on the stage and said a lot of high-sounding words. Finally, he pointed out that in the prairie previously, Chu Mo had dealt a blow to the Daqi Kingdom, the help he had given to the King's Court, and his contribution to Da Xia!
Therefore, he also deserved a hero's medal!
Everyone present who did not know the inside story was extremely shocked while they were envious of Chu Mo.
He was just a teenager, but he had received so many honors.
And this honor was something that countless people could not obtain even once in their entire lives!
For example, even the Golden Dragon General and Grand Marshal Fang Mingtong were not qualified to receive a hero's medal.
But after hearing about Chu Mo's achievements, everyone was only left with envy.
There was no jealousy!
Because these … were all deserved by this young man!
Only a few people looked at Chu Mo, who was surrounded by flowers and applause, and looked at the smiling Emperor, and they all secretly shook their heads.
His achievements were high enough to shock the Emperor!
Even a wise Emperor like the current Emperor was also afraid of this … This was really something that made people feel helpless.
The grand conferring ceremony came to a successful end.
From the beginning to the end, whether it was the royal family or Chu Mo's side, they all had a good attitude, and there was nothing unusual.
But anyone with a discerning eye could tell that after today, it was hard to say what would happen to Fan Wudi, the old general who had devoted most of his life to the Great Xia army. But the relationship between the newly crowned king of Chu and the royal family of the Great Xia would definitely drift apart.
There were some things that needed to be planned as soon as possible!
For example, to draw a line or something.
Of course, there were also people who were anxious to further their relationship with Chu Mo, or … to explain something.
For example, Wang Dafa.
From the time he received the intelligence from Da Qi to the end of the battle at Tian Broken Mountain Range, and now that he had returned with glory, Chu Mo had no intention of meeting Wang Dafa.
The reason was very simple. In the capital of Da Qi, that big fatty Zhao Er, who weighed more than 150 kilograms, could be said to have stabbed Chu Mo in the back!
That stab was really ruthless!
If not for a freak combination of factors, he would have dodged the stab. Not to mention intelligence, he would probably have lost his life there!
And this Zhao Er was someone that Wang Dafa had confidently promised to Chu Mo that nothing would go wrong!
He was Wang Dafa's confidant!
Because of his trust in Wang Dafa, Chu Mo did not suspect Zhao Er at all. As a result, that day, when Chu Mo saw the experts around the inn he was staying in, he was so shocked that he broke out in a cold sweat.
The trust in his heart towards Wang Dafa was instantly gone.
