Previously, Chu Mo's clothes were ragged and he was emitting a murderous aura. In addition, it was getting late, so Pang Zhongyuan did not see his appearance clearly.
After seeing Chu Mo's appearance, Pang Zhongyuan suddenly felt that if this youth nodded, then he and Na Yi would truly be a perfect match!
However, this kind of matter needed to be discussed at length. Even if he was anxious, he couldn't bring it up directly at this time. It would be a huge loss if they scared this young man away.
Pang Zhongyuan thought to himself as he revealed a warm smile and said: "Young Noble Lin, if it wasn't for you today, I'm afraid we would all be in trouble. Our princess wants to repay you, but she feels that money is a humiliation to someone of your status. Young Master Lin … what do you need us to do? As long as we can do it, we won't refuse! "
Chu Mo shook his head with a smile. "The main reason I went down the mountain this time was to train myself. The reason why I helped you today is that I can't stand those people bullying the weak and selling out their masters for glory! I can't stand such despicable people the most! "
"Haha, Young Master Lin is really chivalrous!" Raising his thumbs up, Pang Zhongyuan sighed, "It's a pity that things are different now. Otherwise, I would definitely repay you."
Chu Mo waved his hand and looked at Pang Zhongyuan. "It doesn't matter. However, Mr. Pang, what exactly happened on the grassland? Can you tell me more about it? "
The two of them probed each other with the same goal, so they naturally got along well.
Pang Zhongyuan was overjoyed when he heard Chu Mo's words. He felt that there was a great chance that he could make this young man stay!
"It's a long story!" Pang Zhongyuan sighed and told Chu Mo about the changes that had taken place in the prairie in the past two years.
"When I was in trouble, it was the King and Queen, the Princess's parents, who took me in and gave me a place to stay."
"Although this isn't my hometown, after all these years, it's no different from my hometown."
"My greatest wish in life is that this prairie will truly belong to the people here. I hope that everyone can live and work in peace and contentment."
"It's just that the Great Qi Dynasty has been eyeing this grassland covetously for hundreds of years. It has never given up on this grassland."
"For the past few decades, they've been plotting. Sigh …"
"The late King was deceived. He thought that Great Qi had changed. Until his death … he was still dreaming of peace."
Pang Zhongyuan's face was filled with resentment, "I always knew that the Great Qi Dynasty would have some tricks up their sleeves, so I was always on guard and constantly reminded the previous king. But I didn't expect that the people they bribed were the two princes! "
"Those two bastards who don't deserve to be human! About half a year ago, at a banquet, he secretly drugged the wine of the late king and queen. "
"That medicine is colorless, odorless, and formless. Furthermore, its effects are slow. Once you're poisoned, you won't be able to detect it."
"Because they didn't dare to poison the late king and queen to death. If they did, the royal court's imperial army would definitely tear them to pieces!"
"Not even if they are princes! The Imperial Guards of the Royal Court only take orders from the King. "
As Pang Zhongyuan spoke tirelessly, an internal conspiracy of the Royal Court slowly surfaced.
The Great Qi Dynasty's tactics were brilliant. They promised the two princes that once they succeeded, they would make them kings and split the entire grassland into two as the princes' fiefdoms.
They only needed to nominally belong to the Great Qi Dynasty!
At the same time, they promised the two princes a lot of benefits, such as Great Qi's specialty jewelry and beautiful women. Brother Jin and Brother Silver, these two stupid things, were completely moved.
They poisoned their parents bit by bit through slow-acting poisons.
Finally, a few days ago, it completely broke out!
"First, the Queen fell into a coma. The imperial doctor found out that this slow poison had been accumulating in the Queen's body for at least half a year. Then, there was even more misfortune. The King … also fell into a coma."
"Brother Jin, who was already prepared, used his status as the eldest son and the rules of the grassland. When the King wasn't around, he took charge."
"He forcefully issued several orders and replaced the imperial guards with his own people. He completely controlled the Royal Court. "
"Brother Silver … that bastard brought the special envoy of the Great Qi Dynasty and personally beheaded his own parents … to show his complete loyalty to the Great Qi Dynasty."
"To the public, he announced that the King and Queen had suddenly died of illness!"
"Then, he slandered the Princess and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to seize power."
At this point, Pang Zhongyuan could not help but shed tears. "The poor King and Queen, they were kind and generous, but they were killed by their two bastard sons."
"The methods that the Great Qi Dynasty had set up in the grassland were completely broken out in an instant."
"In the entire grassland, one-third of the tribal leaders were bribed by the Great Qi Dynasty. They were promised huge benefits. When this happened, they betrayed the Royal Court!"
"Those shameless people!"
Pang Zhongyuan gritted his teeth, his face full of hatred.
"Inside the Royal Court, other than Brother Jin and Brother Silver, there were many people that even I didn't expect. They were all from the Great Qi Dynasty."
"Princess, we were able to escape thanks to the royal guards that were replaced. They risked their lives to protect us as we fought our way out. Then, they stayed behind to cover our retreat."
"Now … I'm afraid … they're all dead."
Pang Zhongyuan's tone was full of sorrow.
Chu Mo sighed and said, "Of the two princes, at least one will inherit the throne in the future. Is his brain … filled with sh * t? How could he do such a disgraceful thing? "
"The late King doted on the little prince the most. The two eldest princes also felt threatened. But the little prince was actually young. No matter how much the late King doted on him, it was unlikely that he would pass the throne to the little prince. " Pang Zhongyuan sighed, "Those two fools blinded by power, did they really think that the Great Qi Dynasty would be so kind? Once the Royal Court is completely conquered, they will be the first to be attacked! "
Chu Mo nodded. He had grown up with his grandfather in the army and was influenced by what he saw. He had also read many books on the art of war. He was no stranger to these schemes and methods that affected the fate of the country.
Hearing this, he said, "They are indeed fools, and worse than beasts. They even harmed their own parents!"
As he said this, Chu Mo looked at Pang Zhongyuan, "So now that you have escaped, who are you going to join?"
Pang Zhongyuan nodded, "Although the Great Qi Dynasty is the leader of this grassland, in reality, it is also made up of many tribes. This time, the Great Qi Dynasty has finally revealed its trump card. One-third of the grassland tribes have declared their allegiance to the Great Qi Dynasty, but there are still two-thirds who have not betrayed! "
"Among them, the strongest tribe is Elder Hao Yue's tribe."
"All along, Elder Hao Yue's tribe has been a power on this grassland, second only to the Royal Court. Moreover, they have been close to the Royal Court for generations, and have always maintained a marriage alliance. They can be considered one of us. "
Chu Mo could feel that Pang Zhongyuan's words were somewhat insincere. He raised his head and asked, "Are they really that close?"
Pang Zhongyuan could not help but smile bitterly, thinking that although this youth was young, he was not so easily fooled.
But the more this was so, the more Pang Zhongyuan felt that as long as he could keep this youth, there would definitely be hope of restoring the Royal Court!
Perhaps others would scoff at his thoughts, but he himself believed in his own vision.
"If they were really that close, wouldn't they have already sent someone over?" Chu Mo said again.
Pang Zhongyuan did not hide it. He sighed and said to Chu Mo, "For Elder Hao Yue, the most important thing is to preserve his own strength. He is the Princess's uncle, but he … is also the uncle of Brother Jin and Brother Yin! "
"Then why are you still going to him? What's the point? "Chu Mo frowned slightly.
He could already feel that the situation of this group of people in front of him was no longer just a problem, but a group of people who were trapped in a hopeless situation!
Chu Mo looked at Pang Zhongyuan and slowly said, "There may be many people in the grassland who are loyal to the Royal Court and the Princess. If they can unite their strength, they will indeed be very powerful. They will be able to take advantage of the Great Qi Dynasty's cavalry to destroy Brother Jin and Brother Yin before they set foot on this grassland. "
"But the problem is, without the Great King's Royal Court … who can make these people willingly unite?"
"Princess Na Yi?"
"She is the brightest pearl of the grassland. She is the goddess in the hearts of the people of the grassland!"
"But she is not the Queen!"
"Not to mention that Brother Jin and Brother Yin obviously have the upper hand. They have announced that their parents have died of illness, and the Princess wants to rebel. How many people would dare to stand up and support Princess Na Yi at this time?"
"Under such circumstances, the best outcome for you to seek refuge with Elder Hao Yue is that Elder Hao Yue will take you in and provide you with temporary protection out of consideration for kinship."
"But in my opinion, the biggest possibility is that Elder Hao Yue will directly capture you all and imprison you or put you under house arrest as a bargaining chip!"
Chu Mo sneered, "Then, he will find the best time to make a choice."
"But no matter what choice you make, I'm afraid there will be no benefit for you."
Pang Zhongyuan's face was full of shock. He looked at Chu Mo in surprise. He had thought that he had already thought highly of this young boy, but he did not expect that he had underestimated him!
Not only was this young boy terrifyingly strong, but … his IQ was also monstrous!
Then, he smiled bitterly, "How could I not have thought of what Sir Lin said? But now … this is the only way! "
"Going to Elder Hao Yue and asking him to send troops is better than going to the other tribes!"
"Those tribes will eat people without spitting out their bones."
"Although Elder Hao Yue is very cunning, he has a problem …" Pang Zhongyuan whispered, "He is very soft. With the Princess's aunt on his side, it will have a certain effect."
"Moreover, he has always been very fond of Princess Na Yi."
"What we thought before was …" Pang Zhongyuan hesitated for a moment, but still said directly, "Previously, we planned to … have the princess marry one of Elder Haoyue's sons, and then make a heavy promise in exchange for his support to send troops to recover the royal court."
At this time, Pang Zhongyuan had no choice but to reveal his plan. Because this young boy had only listened to his words and had made such an accurate deduction and analysis of the current situation. Such a person was not someone he could fool!
"Marriage?" Chu Mo snorted, "The most ridiculous thing in this world is this kind of marriage. It is nothing more than a thin piece of paper that will break with a single poke. Once we shed all pretense of cordiality, marriage? It's nothing! "
At this time, not too far away, a woman's voice sounded out, "Then Sir, what should I do? Sir, please teach me! "
In the twilight, Na Yi's enchanting figure slowly walked out from the grass.
In fact, Chu Mo already knew that she was eavesdropping. Most of the words he had said just now were for her to hear.
So seeing her come out, he was not surprised. He lightly said, "Simple. Raise the banner of the Royal Court and crusade against the traitors who killed their parents, Brother Gold and Brother Silver.
