"Really? That's … that's great! Sir Lin, thank you, thank you! "As soon as Na Yi heard this, she didn't care about anything else. She was so excited that she almost cried out.
Bao Lian was also startled. She even forgot to tell Na Yi not to be too excited, lest she disturb the others. She looked at Chu Mo for a long time, and then asked in a trembling voice, "Sir Lin, is what you said … true?"
Chu Mo asked, "Does the Princess know the ingredients of the poison you were poisoned with?"
Princess Bao Lian nodded and said, "I only know a few of them. As for the rest, my trusted doctor … he can't distinguish them."
Chu Mo said, "Is it the tail of a white scorpion, the feet of a thirty year old centipede, the tentacles of a golden longhorn beetle …" Chu Mo rattled off a long list, leaving Bao Lian and Na Yi dumbfounded.
Princess Bao Lian looked at Chu Mo in shock and said, "If you didn't come here with Na Yi, and if you didn't look like someone from the prairie, I would have suspected that you were a member of the Hao Yue Family!"
"I'm afraid that even they wouldn't be able to explain the ingredients of this poison so clearly!"
"Although they have the recipe, they don't have the ability to refine this poison!"
"I have already investigated these poisons. They were all left behind by the ancestor of the Hao Yue Family."
Chu Mo looked at Princess Bao Lian and thought to himself, 'This woman is truly fierce. She was able to obtain such important information even under the watchful eyes of Elder Hao Yue.'
"Princess Bao Lian does not need to worry. I will now write down the recipe for the antidote for you. Then, you can send someone to quietly search for these herbs. Once they are found, hand them over to me!"
"Then, Bao Lian will thank Sir Lin!" Princess Bao Lian stood up and bowed deeply to Chu Mo.
Then, she stood there in a daze for a long time. She couldn't help but burst into tears. She choked with sobs and said, "My poor brother and sister-in-law … If only they had met Sir Lin earlier …"
Na Yi also thought of this and began to cry.
Chu Mo thought to himself, "If you had met me earlier, I'm afraid I wouldn't have had this ability back then!"
"Seven days from now, that bastard is holding a grand banquet to welcome Na Yi. The truth is that he wants to force Na Yi to marry his youngest son, Bright Moon Geshui."
"If you don't comply, I'll take out the warrant issued by Brother Jin and Brother Silver and arrest all of you …"
"Let's take this opportunity to make our move. As long as we can control that bastard, I'm confident that I can control the entire situation."
Knowing that she had a chance to survive, Princess Bao Lian was filled with a strong sense of vitality.
Chu Mo was in awe of Princess Bao Lian's ability to gather information.
"Princess, this … is Elder Hao Yue's territory after all. Are you really so confident that you can control the whole situation after controlling Elder Hao Yue?"
Princess Bao Lian said, "I have too much evidence against him, and he knows some of it. That is one of the reasons why he wants to kill me. Once this evidence is made public, he will immediately lose all standing and reputation! "
With that, Princess Bao Lian looked at Chu Mo and said, "I was once a princess of the royal court. If I want to use some resources, it's actually very simple.
But right now, I only have one wish … "
She looked at Na Yi beside her and said, "I only hope that my niece can become the Queen of the prairie!"
"Auntie …" Na Yi looked at Princess Bao Lian and hesitated.
Princess Bao Lian said softly, "Silly child, your aunt's reputation is ruined after I killed that bastard. It doesn't matter how many mistakes he has committed or whether we are husband and wife or not, I am still his wife in name!"
"Furthermore, Auntie has never had any interest in that throne!"
You are more suitable than anyone else to sit on that throne. "
"Believe in Auntie's vision!"
"That is why that bastard must die by my hand!"
As Princess Bao Lian said this, she looked at Chu Mo.
Chu Mo understood that although Princess Bao Lian's words seemed to be directed at Na Yi, they were actually meant for him to hear. She wanted to reassure him that although she had the ability to do so, she did not have the ambition to do so!
In fact, Chu Mo did not care which of the two of them became the new ruler of the royal court. Even if Brother Lie became the new king of the prairie, Chu Mo would not care.
As long as he did not fall into the hands of the Great Qi Kingdom or those close to the Great Qi Kingdom, then there would be no problem.
Of course, in comparison, Chu Mo was more willing to see Na Yi ascend to the throne.
Afterwards, Princess Bao Lian discussed the details of the banquet with Chu Mo, and then quietly left with Na Yi.
Looking at the bookshelf that had been restored to its original state, Chu Mo could not help but mutter, "Grandfather was right. In this world, no one can be underestimated, especially women!"
There were still seven days until Elder Hao Yue's banquet, but there was only one day until the night of the full moon!
In other words, tomorrow night would be the night of the full moon.
According to the location indicated on the map, Chu Mo judged that the place was about 100 miles away from Princess Bao Lian's palace. To him, this was not a very long distance.
Therefore, Chu Mo planned to use this night of the full moon to explore that place and see if he could gain anything.
At noon the next day, Chu Mo swaggered out on a horse. With a bow on his back, he galloped in the direction indicated on the map.
He said that he was going to hunt, and naturally, no one would stop him.
The horse that Chu Mo rode was personally chosen by Princess Bao Lian.
Like the horse that Princess Bao Lian rode, this horse was also jet black. There was not a single strand of hair on its body, and it looked very spirited. At first, it was a bit arrogant and disdainful of Chu Mo.
However, when Chu Mo revealed a bit of the aura of the Yuan Guan Realm, the Big Black Horse immediately became terrified. It even ingratiatingly moved its head toward Chu Mo to be petted …
Chu Mo actually did not want to ride out on a horse. To him, riding a horse was not as fast as walking for a hundred miles.
However, that would be too conspicuous. This was a critical period, and Chu Mo did not want to attract Elder Hao Yue's attention.
Just like that, Chu Mo rode the Big Black Horse and galloped across the grassland.
After being frightened by Chu Mo, the Big Black Horse became very obedient. It felt that its master wanted it to go faster, so it galloped wildly.
It had to be said that the top warhorses of the grassland could run at an astonishing speed at full speed.
The wind whistled past his ears, and his face was slightly stinging.
The Big Black Horse galloped for 70 to 80 miles in one go before it slowed down a little. There was not much sweat on its body, and its aura was very stable. It was indeed a fine steed.
By now, they had entered the area indicated on the map. Chu Mo jumped off and patted the Big Black Horse's head, saying, "Find a place to graze. I'll call you when I'm back!"
Perhaps it understood Chu Mo's words, but the Big Black Horse intimately rubbed its head against Chu Mo's hand and ran away happily.
Chu Mo was left alone, walking around casually. There was still some time before the moon rose, so Chu Mo wanted to familiarize himself with the terrain.
There was a large forest in front of him, filled with trees that were so thick that it would take several people to wrap their arms around them. They rose steeply from the ground, and their canopies covered a large area, blocking out the sun and the sky.
It was a scenic spot in the depths of the grassland.
As he thought about it, Chu Mo suddenly felt someone approaching. He turned around and saw a figure in blue rushing toward him.
Chu Mo was startled. He hadn't expected to run into Qi Xiaoyu here.
Qi Xiaoyu looked very disheveled at the moment. Her blue dress, which seemed as if it would never get dirty, was stained with large patches of blood. Her face was also very pale.
"Are you hurt?" Chu Mo asked anxiously. He didn't have time to ask how she had found him so accurately.
"Hehe … are you worried about me?" Qi Xiaoyu staggered toward Chu Mo, her body swaying and she almost tripped.
Chu Mo quickly reached out to support her and asked with a frown, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing … I just fought with a few annoying people." Qi Xiaoyu raised her eyebrows. "They're really annoying. They're still chasing me! Hurry, help me into the forest … "
"What's the use of that? I'll cover your retreat. Hurry up and run! " Chu Mo glanced at the forest. It wasn't small, but it was nothing to someone with a high cultivation.
He looked at Qi Xiaoyu. "You always come and go without a trace every time you come looking for me. Hurry up and run!"
"Don't … don't talk nonsense. If you don't get me to the forest, I'll really die and you'll never see me again!"
Qi Xiaoyu looked weakly at Chu Mo. "If I could come and go without a trace, would I need to come looking for you, idiot?"
"Hurry up, hurry up, I can feel it. Those annoying people are chasing after us!" Qi Xiaoyu looked at Chu Mo pitifully, her face pale. "Those bastards! Not only did they want to rob me of my money, but they also wanted to rape me … Do you really have the heart to watch a pretty girl like me be snatched away by them? Hurry up! "
Gritting his teeth, Chu Mo picked up Qi Xiaoyu by the waist and sprinted toward the forest.
Naturally, Chu Mo wasn't weak. Using his footwork to the fullest, he darted into the forest like a wisp of smoke.
"Alright, alright, this is the place. Put me under this tree and go back there. When they ask where I went, tell them I went into the forest!" Qi Xiaoyu pointed at a tree so thick that it would take five or six adults to wrap their arms around it.
"Just put you here? Are you sure? Also, what do you mean by selling you out? "Chu Mo frowned at Qi Xiaoyu in his arms.
"Aiya, what do you mean by selling me out..."
"How can an idiot like you understand my combat arts? Hurry up and put me down. I'll be fine! "
Qi Xiaoyu looked at Chu Mo. "If you tell them that, they won't make things difficult for you. If they can't find me, they'll just scram!"
"Fine, I'll put you down, but I won't say that!" Chu Mo angrily placed Qi Xiaoyu under the towering tree and turned to leave.
"I can't do something like selling out a friend!"
A trace of emotion flashed in Xi Xiaoyu's starry eyes as she muttered, "Idiot, I already said I'll be fine!"
As she spoke, Qi Xiaoyu's figure slowly melted into the towering tree.
Then, she disappeared completely!
