Chapter 379: The Son's Conspiracy
Early the next morning, Medina came to Xiao Chen, and it could be seen that she must not have slept well last night, her father was sick and her mother was killed, this blow was too heavy for a teenage girl. (. Purple Pavilion)
Grandfather Su Kemu saw the pain in his eyes and heart, and he couldn't wait to take someone to set off immediately, to cut off the head of the traitor Gu Lilen, and avenge his granddaughter.
Xiao Chen invited her into his room, and the beautiful princess's big eyes, which were originally full of smartness, were now covered with bloodshots, like a rabbit.
After inviting her to sit down, the little marquis persuaded: "Nana, you have to cheer up a little, I believe that your parents in heaven do not want to see their daughter sad." ”
The princess smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Chen, you may not understand, I have grown up under the protection of my parents for so many years, and I have very few opportunities to get out of the felt tent. Of course I don't blame them for restricting my freedom, because I know they're doing it for my good, and they're suddenly gone, and I'm not used to it. ”
"Hehe, I believe in you, you are a very powerful girl, you will definitely be able to adapt to the new life. The little marquis continued to cheer him on.
"Well, I'll try. Medina suddenly lowered her voice: "Why did you tell my uncle that your name is Chen Xiao instead of Xiao Chen?"
She had been thinking about this question for a long time, and she didn't have a chance to ask it in front of her grandfather, uncle and other guests yesterday.
Xiao Hou Ye smiled: "Didn't I tell you, I am a wanted criminal in the whole country in the Great Chu Dynasty, maybe when the wanted notice will be posted at the gate of the border city, I have to be careful." ”
The princess suddenly realized: "So that's the case. ”
He nodded: "Although the border city is not under the jurisdiction of Great Chu, it can't stop someone from going to the nearest guard post to report for a huge bounty." ”
Medina raised her eyebrows: "Then why did you tell me your real name?"
"Because you won't betray me!" said the little marquis seriously.
"I can't tell!" said the princess's eyes.
Xiao Hou Ye's eyes widened: "What, do you really want to betray your savior? Am I not your god, you repay me like this?"
Seeing that he was deceived, the princess giggled: "I lied to you, no one will betray you, Brother Chen, and I won't give others a chance to betray you." ”
"That's right, beautiful girls should smile more, smile more beautifully. The little marquis clapped his hands and said, he said that on purpose just now, in order to make the beauty laugh.
The coquettish smile on Martina's face gradually smiled, and she whispered, "Brother Chen, you are indeed my god, and with you, you can forget all the troubles." ”
"Ah, what did you say?"
"It's nothing, I'm going to see my grandfather, I'll come and talk to you later." The princess turned and walked away, as if fleeing.
When she walked away, the little marquis shrugged his shoulders and said to himself: "Could it be that this is the legendary personality charm, which easily impressed the pearl of the grassland." Hey, there's no way, who made us handsome and loved!"
After saying that, he shook his hair very stinkily, and his face was full of such a confident expression.
At noon, Su Kemu once again treated him as a guest, this time for a family banquet, with only four tables set in the hall.
Kerim was the last person to come in, with a dusty face, and after sitting down, he first poured a large bowl of mare's milk wine, drank it dry in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and said, "Father, the first batch of people sent to the Baishan tribe has returned. ”
"Yes, how's the situation?" asked Su Kemu with some eagerness.
"The situation is not good, according to the news they brought back, many people support Gullen. He replied.
The old man raised his eyebrows: "How is it possible, your brother-in-law has been the patriarch for more than 20 years, he is kind and respected, and Gu Lilen has always been a person with a bad reputation, how can he be supported by the clansmen so quickly." ”
Kerimgan said with a smile: "It's hard to say this, my brother-in-law is very kind, but he lacks a domineering spirit to expand his territory, so that the Baishan clan has not made any major development for more than 20 years." And Gu Lilen is in the prime of life, and the militant faction will support him first, and if he gives some small favors to his people, I believe that there will be more people who support him. ”
"Impossible!" Su Kemu insisted that his son-in-law was better than Gu Lilen, and the Baishan people had a simple personality, so it was impossible for the old clan to turn to support the new patriarch as soon as he died.
"Actually, I'm also a little suspicious, this is just the news brought by the first batch of people, and there will be more information in the future. Kerim picked up a knife and cut off a piece of roast mutton, and said as he ate: "Because of the time constraints, it is very likely that the first group of people only learned about the situation on the surface. ”
Su Kemu's face became a little better, and he turned his head and asked his granddaughter, "Nana, what do your clansmen say about Gu Lilen?"
Medina shook her head, her parents never let her worry about these things, and she rarely had contact with outsiders since she was a child, so she didn't know the specific situation of the Baishan clan at all.
"Okay, Crimea, you continue to search for information, and you must find out the most true situation. He could only pin his hopes on his son.
Krimu promised: "Don't worry, I won't let you down." ”
Xiao Chen didn't speak, but stared at Krim with his peripheral vision, and saw that his eyes wandered several times, which is a common action when people lie.
Obviously, this uncle, who is loyal on the surface and insidious at heart, is not telling the truth.
He and Medina glanced at each other, and felt the need to go to the White Mountain Clan to find out the truth.
After the meal, Xiao Chen and Medina left first, and Krimu said to his father: "I think Nana and Chen Gongzi are very compatible, what do you think, father?"
"I also think that they are a match made in heaven, but Chen Gongzi is from Da Chu, and he will return to Da Chu sooner or later. Su Kemu said with a look of embarrassment: "And Nana is a person who is born to be the patriarch and seek the well-being of the clan, can they do it when the time comes?"
Kerrim immediately said: "I think the matter is man-made, maybe Chen Gongzi is willing to stay in the grassland for Nana! Or maybe after Nana regains the position of patriarch, she will quickly elect a new successor, and then follow Chen Gongzi back to Dachu, this is all possible." ”
Hearing these words, Su Kemu frowned unconsciously, of course he didn't want his beloved granddaughter to leave the grassland.
The son continued: "Father, don't you realize that the burden is a bit too heavy to hand over a tribe of tens of thousands of people to Nana to deal with? In addition, I think the most important thing at the moment is that Nana came out of the shadow of her father's death and her mother's murder, she is an introverted girl, although you and I are her closest relatives, can't you see that father, she prefers to be with Chen Gongzi." ”
"You mean, whether they can become a couple in the future or not, for Nana to be happy, try to keep them together as much as possible at this moment, right?"
Krimu clapped his palms and said, "That's it, I think you should ask Chen Gongzi as an elder to let him accompany Nana to the streets and go out to play." ”
The old man raised his hand and patted his head: "You're right, Nana's happiness is the most important thing." ”
