Chapter 33: Elder Haoyue
At the same time, there were two middle-aged people with ordinary appearances, following behind these four people, dressed very ordinary, looking like ordinary guards.
But Chu Mo's heart moved slightly, remembering what Na Yi had said before that beside Elder Haoyue, there were two guards of the Yuanguan realm, and they were inseparable. Presumably...... It's these two people.
Looking at the dress of Elder Haoyue, father and son, Chu Mo had a feeling of an eye-opener.
On this grassland, all he met before were some vulgar men, even Nayi, although her life is extremely beautiful, she is dressed in a completely grassland style, and there are many ornaments on her head and body.
Walk, jingle.
The grassland people in Chu Mo's imagination should also be like this.
But after seeing Elder Haoyue and his three sons, Chu Mo suddenly felt a little confused, as if it made him feel like he was back in Great Xia.
Chu Mo glanced at Pang Zhongyuan, and sure enough, after Elder Haoyue appeared, Pang Zhongyuan's face flashed with that unnaturalness in an instant. But then, he returned to normal, stood up with a smile, and looked at Elder Haoyue with a bit of respect in his eyes.
Nayi and Brother Lie also all stood up and greeted Elder Haoyue with a smile.
Princess Baolian was the last to get up, and her tone was very flat, not at all like facing her husband, she looked at Elder Haoyue who came over, and said lightly, "Why are you here?"
Elder Haoyue smiled slightly, and then nodded to Pang Zhongyuan on the side: "Mr. Pang, we meet again!"
Pang Zhongyuan saluted Elder Haoyue: "I've seen Elder Haoyue below!"
"Haha, don't be so polite, everyone is an old friend!" Elder Haoyue laughed heartily, and only then did he look at Princess Baolian with a doting face: "Our niece and nephew are here, can I come and take a look?"
As he spoke, he turned back to the three young people behind him and said, "Haven't you come to see the princess and the third prince?"
Although the rules in the grassland royal court are not as many as those of Great Qi and Great Xia, they are the same for the elders and the young.
The three young people didn't see any reluctance on their faces, and they all stepped forward to greet Nayi and Brother Lie with smiles on their faces. Nayi and Brother Lie also returned the salute with a smile, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Chu Mo's heart towards Elder Haoyue's danger Cheng dù increased a few points. Just looking at this scene, I can't imagine the cold attitude that Bado had towards them before.
"Could it be that Nabado was fed and supported by himself, so he treated Nayi with that attitude?"
Apparently impossible!
Then, it can only be said that Elder Haoyue ...... The city is too deep, too good at disguising itself.
His three sons are no worse at all!
But Nayi and Brother Lie over here...... It's not too much.
This made Chu Mo feel a little emotional, a child born in this kind of family is really born to act, and he can disguise his true feelings in the blink of an eye.
The arrival of Elder Haoyue made the atmosphere in the banquet hall a little duller. However, Elder Haoyue himself didn't realize it, so he asked someone to change the table again, and drank wine with Pang Zhongyuan with a smile.
During the period, he also raised a glass to the knights who protected Nayi all the way.
"Thank you for escorting the princess and prince along the way, you have worked hard!" Elder Haoyue stood up and held a large bowl: "This bowl of wine, I'll do it first!"
All the knights were temperamental, and when they saw Elder Haoyue like this, they also stood up one after another and dried the wine in the bowl.
"You are all good men on the grassland, and you are all hot-blooded men! Don't let go just because I'm here, just treat this as if this is your home!" Elder Haoyue gestured to everyone for the empty bowl, and then sat down with a smile.
The atmosphere in the hall gradually regained its previous enthusiasm.
In Chu Mo's heart, there was a chill, and he peeked at the expressions of Nayi, Pang Zhongyuan, and Princess Baolian.
Sure enough, those people were also very smart, and in the depths of their eyes, they were all a little cold and angry.
"This Elder Haoyue, although he is the landlord here, there is nothing wrong with entertaining everyone. However, the words that came out of his mouth, and his attitude, clearly conveyed a signal to everyone...... "Chu Mo secretly said in his heart: He is ...... I want to be the king of this grassland!
"Moreover, from the time he came in, until now, he has not mentioned a word about the king and queen......"
"It is said that the queen of the Great King has always been very good to Elder Haoyue. This man...... It's so cool. ”
Before, I really underestimated him!
Thinking of some of the things recorded on the secret letter on the envoy of Great Qi before, Chu Mo suddenly gasped in his heart: On that secret letter, there were three or four people, all of whom belonged to the Haoyue Elder Clan......
Chu Mo thought that he shouldn't know about it. But judging from his appearance today, such a shrewd person should not be unaware of such a thing.
"Do you mean...... Elder Haoyue is the Great Qi on the grassland...... The most secret and powerful chess piece laid down?"
Although it was just a guess, Chu Mo was still taken aback by this possibility. Grandpa once said that the games and contests between high-level leaders are full of wisdom and conspiracy, and ordinary people even die...... I can't figure out what's going on.
Only the moment the hole cards are opened, can you know the truth of all the qiē. There are even times when the hole cards are opened, but you still can't see the truth!
"It seems that when I go back, I will have to re-study the secret letter. Chu Mo said secretly in his heart.
The banquet didn't end until late, and Elder Haoyue and his party did not stay here, but directly led the team away.
Chu Mo returned to the room under the guidance of a special person, and soon after, Pang Zhongyuan came to the door.
Mr. Pang, who had been drinking a lot of alcohol tonight, looked a little drunk, and his tongue was a little big, and when he saw Chu Mo, he first apologized: "I'm sorry, I wronged Lin Gongzi tonight, so ...... Lin Gongzi is the one who should sit at the first table!"
Chu Mo waved his hand: "Didn't we say it before, my identity can't be exposed." Otherwise, the next plan will not be able to be carried out. ”
Pang Zhongyuan waved his hand and said with some bitterness: "The matter ...... I'm afraid something has changed!"
"What?" Chu Mo looked at Pang Zhongyuan and frowned slightly.
Pang Zhongyuan took a sip of water, and then said in a deep voice, "Elder Haoyue...... Big problem!"
"Huh?" Chu Mo glanced at Pang Zhongyuan, he already had this guess tonight, but he didn't know what Pang Zhongyuan deduced it from.
"When I was drinking just now, I deliberately tested Elder Haoyue's three sons. Those three guys...... The eldest is a smiling tiger with a deep scheming! The second child is gloomy all day long, and he has very few words. Only the third child, pretentious and a little frivolous, is the most scheming. ”
Therefore, among the three boys, only the third is the easiest to deal with. ”
Pang Zhongyuan drank too much wine, and his speech was somewhat long-winded. Chu Mo didn't urge him, and listened patiently.
"I can perceive from the words of the third child that today's Bado, blocking there is not the instruction of Elder Haoyue, it should be from his eldest son, Haoyue Gemu!"
This incident made Elder Haoyue angry and scolded Haoyue Gemu fiercely. ”
Pang Zhongyuan's drunken face showed a sneer: "Although that kid from Haoyue Geshui only showed half a sentence, how could he escape my eyes?"
"This matter was not instructed by Elder Haoyue, and then, he was furious because Haoyue Gemu did that, which ...... There must be a problem!"
"Because he's not Pauline! he doesn't like Nayi and Brother Lie that much!"
"He was angry because he was afraid that Haoyue Gemu's actions would arouse our vigilance!"
That's why he showed up with his three sons at the dinner, and all of them looked happy to see their relatives, and didn't say a word about what happened in the royal court...... This is clearly paralyzing us!"
"It's just that his sons are still a little tender, how can their pretending happiness escape my eyes?"
Pang Zhongyuan sneered: "First scolded Haoyue Gemu, and then came over to participate in the banquet in person, this is not Elder Haoyue's original character at all! I know him, there is only one reason why he can do this! That is, this guy's ambition has swelled to the extreme, and he wants to be the king of this grassland!"
"You mean...... He took refuge in Daqi?" Chu Mo asked.
"Take refuge in Daqi?" Pang Zhongyuan shook his head: "This possibility, maybe a little, but it is very small." Even if he has a connection with Daqi, it is just a mutual use, this person is very proud in his bones, and it is unlikely that he will take refuge in Daqi. ”
Chu Mo thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "Then...... Do you think that among Elder Haoyue's subordinates, will there be chess pieces under Da Qi Bu?"
Pang Zhongyuan frowned slightly, rubbed his head with his hand, and said, "This is a possibility...... There are still. ”
"So...... Our previous plan?" Chu Mo looked at Pang Zhongyuan: "Is it temporarily postponed?"
"The shape here, you can also see, is much more complicated than we thought, and we need to see it clearly...... So, that plan should indeed be postponed for the time being. This is going to wronged Lin Gongzi and stay here for a while longer. Pang Zhongyuan said a little apologetically.
"It's okay, I don't have anything to do anyway. Chu Mo said softly: "It is appropriate to be cautious!"
At the same time, Princess Pauline, with Nayi, in her room, was also talking about it.
"Auntie, why do I think something is wrong with my uncle?" Na leaned on the head of the bed, also a little drunk, although she didn't drink much, but she couldn't stand it for a long time. The three brothers, although they didn't drink her much, they didn't drink with her less.
"Of course something is wrong with him!" Princess Baolian sneered: "After your father died, he had a different heart, and first asked me, saying that Brother Jin and Brother Yin did such a thing that lost their conscience, should they be killed?"
"What do you say, auntie?" asked Nayi.
"Of course I said I should be killed!" Princess Pauline said, sighing: "Those two children, I watched them grow up, they were good when they were young, but I didn't expect that when they grew up, they would do such a unconscionable thing." ”
"Your uncle asked me again, saying that if you kill Brother Jin and Brother Yin, after avenging the king, what will happen to the grassland royal court?"
Princess Baolian sneered: "I understood what he meant as soon as I heard it, sue him, the Prairie Royal Court, will always be the king's lineage, Brother Jin and Brother Yin are dead, isn't there still Brother Lie?"
He also said that Brother Lie was too young to convince the public. I sue him, Brother Lie is young, and Nayi! We haven't had a queen on this grassland!"
Nayi shook her head: "I'm sure I can't......"
"Why can't you?" Princess Pauline took Nayi's hand and said, "Your personality is most similar to me, you are all in a hurry, dare to think and dare to do, and you are smarter than me, why not?"
"Now in this situation, it's too early to talk about this...... Nayi said with some loss: "If my uncle really has that thought, who can stop him in the entire grassland?"
Princess Pauline sighed and hesitated for a moment before she whispered, "Do you know that the death of your parents is actually ...... It has a direct relationship with him!"
