"Let's go. Let's go see your uncle and beg him to send troops to capture Brother Jin and Brother Silver!"
"If your uncle doesn't send troops, then I will take you far away!" Princess Bao Lian said with a determined expression.
Chu Mo didn't know much about this former Grand Princess. Now that he saw her, he was somewhat surprised.
This was because Princess Bao Lian looked to be in her late twenties; she wasn't even 30 years old.
She had fair skin and a beautiful face. She looked 70-80% similar to Na Yi, but her body was filled with the liveliness of an adult woman.
"She isn't that young … Didn't they say that Na Yi was going to marry Elder Hao Yue's sons? Did she have a child when she was only a teenager? "Chu Mo thought.
Pang Zhongyuan moved closer to Chu Mo and whispered, "Before Elder Hao Yue married Princess Bao Lian, he had a wife who gave birth to three sons.
"Later, his wife died of illness, and he asked the king for her hand in marriage. Princess Bao Lian married him, but she didn't have any children."
Chu Mo noticed that Pang Zhongyuan's words were a bit unnatural. Between his eyebrows … there seemed to be a touch of sadness.
"So that's how it is."
At this time, Princess Bao Lian personally helped Na Yi and Brother Lie onto their horses. Then, she glanced over at Chu Mo and Pang Zhongyuan. As she saw Pang Zhongyuan, her eyes seemed a bit evasive and somewhat unnatural. She said, "Mister Pang, you've worked hard on this journey!"
"Princess, this is what we should do!" Pang Zhongyuan bowed and said softly.
Princess Bao Lian nodded and said, "Let's go!"
"Let's go to my place first!"
Chu Mo looked at Pang Zhongyuan with a strange expression. Pang Zhongyuan immediately explained, "The princess has her own residence here. She doesn't live with Elder Hao Yue."
Chu Mo nodded and thought to himself, 'There's a story behind this!'
Then, a large group of people passed through Ba Duo's group of knights and headed deep into the prairie.
From beginning to end, Princess Bao Lian did not say a word to Ba Duo, the captain of the Bright Moon Tribe's knights. She did not even look at him.
Bartho's face was also very ugly. Seeing the group of people leaving, he roared at the knight whose face was red and swollen, "Why did you bring her here?"
The knight said with a wronged expression, "She never went to the elder's place. How could I have thought that she would appear there today? I don't know who leaked the news …"
"Damn it!" Bartho gritted his teeth and said, "Then did you see the Elder?"
The knight who delivered the letter shook his head. "From the beginning to the end, the elder did not show up, and neither did the three young masters …"
Barduo said angrily, "Damn it, this woman hasn't given us a good look ever since she married us. Damn it, what's the point of being a princess!"
"My Lord … please be careful with your words!" The messenger knight said softly.
Barduo said, "What's the matter? We are all on the same side. Don't the three young masters feel the same way? "
"Forget it, my Lord. Let's go back and report. I'm sure the three young masters already know what happened here." The messenger knight touched his face and said bitterly.
He had thought that it would be a good job and that he would be able to show his face in front of the three young masters. Who would have thought that he would run into a crazy woman like Princess Bao Lian and be slapped in the face?
Barduo looked at the messenger knight and said in a deep voice, "I will tell the eldest young master about the grievances you have suffered. Let them be arrogant for a few more days. When the time comes for the elder to think things through, humph …"
A cold smile appeared on Barduo's face as he said, "Let's go!"
The group of people quickly left in another direction.
Princess Bao Lian sped along with her niece and nephew. After running for dozens of miles, a magnificent palace appeared in front of them. It occupied an area of more than a thousand acres.
It was richly ornamented and magnificent.
Outside the palace, there was a wall that was more than six feet tall. Outside the wall was a moat that was more than ten feet wide.
This was simply an exquisite little city!
Chu Mo was in a daze because the style of these buildings was completely different from the buildings in the grassland. They were almost identical to the buildings in Da Xia.
The buildings in the grassland did not have much of a style. They were just yurts and tents. Even the yurts in the imperial court were just bigger and more luxurious.
Pang Zhongyuan explained to Chu Mo, "Princess Bao Lian has been longing for the culture of Da Xia since she was young. She likes reading the scriptures of Da Xia and Da Xia's poetry. She also likes the architecture of Da Xia."
Pang Zhongyuan sighed and said, "I didn't expect Elder Hao Yue to treat her so well. He actually built a Da Xia palace for her here."
Chu Mo nodded and said, "Yes. It is not easy to build such a palace in this place. The materials are a huge problem."
Pang Zhongyuan smiled bitterly and said in a low voice, "Elder Hao Yue's wealth is the strongest in the grassland. Even during the golden age of the imperial court, the wealth accumulated by the imperial court was not even one-third of Elder Hao Yue's wealth."
"That's amazing!" Chu Mo exclaimed. He looked at Pang Zhongyuan and said, "Mister Lin, between you and Princess Bao Lian …"
Before Chu Mo could finish, Pang Zhongyuan's expression changed and he interrupted him, "Young Master Lin, please don't mention this again!" After saying that, he realized that his tone was a little inappropriate. He smiled bitterly and explained, "This is Elder Hao Yue's territory. It is not convenient to talk about this. If you want to know, you will have the chance in the future. "
Chu Mo smiled and shook his head. "It's fine. I am just a little curious."
He knew that before Princess Bao Lian married Elder Hao Yue, she had a very close relationship with Pang Zhongyuan. From the way the two of them treated each other, it could be seen a little bit.
After that, the group went through the city gate and entered the inner city through the suspension bridge.
A large number of servants came out to greet them. Then, they arranged for the knights to wash up and rest.
Chu Mo's treatment was also very good. He had a courtyard to himself.
As for Pang Zhongyuan, he was taken away by someone after entering the city.
This further confirmed Chu Mo's speculation in the depths of his heart: This knowledgeable, refined, and elegant middle-aged man from Great Xia must have had an unspeakable story with the former Princess Wang Wenfang.
Chu Mo was not curious about this. He had a big plan. He wanted to change the power structure of the entire grassland!
Therefore, he could not let go of any details.
Old Master Lin had once said, "A thousand-mile river dam will collapse because of an ant's nest!"
If he was careless, problems would arise sooner or later!
Chu Mo had been bold and careful since he was young. He would pay attention to everything he saw. In this way, he could make fewer mistakes when making decisions.
After driving away the maids who wanted to help him bathe, Chu Mo soaked himself in the bathtub. He felt very comfortable. He couldn't even remember when was the last time he had a hot bath.
After soaking for half an hour, Chu Mo came out and changed into the clothes that had been sent earlier. This time, the clothes fit him very well. But they were not gorgeous; they were the same as the knights' clothes.
This was what Chu Mo had specifically told Na Yi before.
After changing into the new clothes, he felt much better.
Then, Chu Mo quietly cultivated in his room. No matter what, his daily cultivation was unshakable. No matter how outstanding a genius was, they still needed to diligently cultivate. Otherwise, no matter how good their talent was, it would all be wasted.
This was a truth that Chu Mo had understood since he was a child.
After cultivating for a long time, the sky darkened. At this time, a maid came to invite Chu Mo to a banquet.
This welcoming banquet was definitely a must.
Following the maid to a banquet hall, Chu Mo once again saw Na Yi and Brother Lie. The two of them were accompanying Princess Bao Lian and had also changed their clothes.
At this time, Na Yi had changed into a long bright yellow dress. She looked even more beautiful. As she saw Chu Mo, her eyes revealed a gentle smile.
Princess Bao Lian followed her niece's gaze and saw Chu Mo. She nodded slightly, but didn't greet him.
He guessed that Na Yi had also said something to her aunt.
Chu Mo let out a sigh of relief. This Princess Bao Lian seemed to be on the side of her niece and nephew.
Before, Na Yi had said that her aunt was the most trustworthy.
"If that's the case, then the plan … will succeed a bit more easily." Chu Mo thought.
He looked around but didn't see Pang Zhongyuan's figure. Just as he was feeling strange, Pang Zhongyuan came in from outside. He was wearing a white scholarly robe, and his hair was neatly combed. He looked like he was in high spirits.
Seeing Chu Mo, Pang Zhongyuan faintly smiled and then calmly walked towards Princess Bao Lian's table.
Chu Mo's eyes widened. He was puzzled. Before, Pang Zhongyuan had been so careful to avoid arousing suspicion, but now … it was as if he had become a completely different person.
Princess Bao Lian was also smiling. She stood up and bowed to Pang Zhongyuan, "Mister Pang has arrived!"
Chu Mo couldn't help but roll his eyes. The world of adults was so complicated!
Soon after, the banquet began. Exquisite dishes were brought out one after another. The people sitting at the same table as Chu Mo were all knights of Princess Na Yi. They were very respectful to Chu Mo, and all the dishes had to be tasted by Chu Mo first. Chu Mo had been in the army since he was a child, so he naturally knew how to deal with these people.
In next to no time, the atmosphere at the table became lively. Everyone exchanged toasts and chatted loudly, and they temporarily forgot the pain and unhappiness from before.
The dead were gone, but the living … they still had to live.
Chu Mo only tasted a little, so no one forced him.
Just as the banquet was about to come to an end, someone suddenly announced from outside, "Elder Hao Yue has arrived! The Eldest Young Master has arrived! The Second Young Master has arrived! The Third Young Master has arrived! "
The noisy banquet hall suddenly quieted down. Chu Mo followed everyone's gaze and looked towards the entrance.
He saw an old man in his fifties. He wore a gorgeous robe and a golden crown on his head. He had a dignified appearance as he walked in.
Behind him were three young men. The one in the front was about 23 or 24 years old. He was very handsome, and he wore white clothes. He had a gentle smile on his face.
The one in the middle looked very similar to the young man in front, but he had a cold and serious expression. He wore black clothes and was serious in speech and manner. Even the way he walked was very rigid. Every step he took seemed to be measured with a ruler.
The last young man looked to be about 17 or 18 years old. He was very handsome and wore a green robe. He held a folding fan in his hand and looked very handsome. His appearance was similar to that of the young masters in Yan Huang City.
