Chapter Eighty-Six: The Caged Carriage
Then, from Chu Mo's hand, the Demon Lord asked for a list of those top-level yuan pills needed to refine the antidote.
"Master...... Can you find these herbs?"
"It's okay if you don't know, if you know, you can't still look for it alone. In the process of hunting the primordial beast, if I saw it, I dug it up. ”
The Demon Lord left Chu Mo with the blood of ten buckets of Yuan Beasts, enough for Chu Mo to use for three months, and then drifted away.
Chu Mo packed the blood of these Yuan Beasts into the jade space, and then began to prepare some matters for the New Year's dinner. Including some of the costumes worn at the dinner party and other things, Chu Mo needs to do it himself.
There is no way, in the entire Fan Mansion, except for a few veterans' wives who help and clean the kitchen, there is not a single maid!
This is a very strange thing in the entire aristocratic family of Great Xia.
The entire General's Mansion can be called the master, except for the old man, who is Chu Mo. The old man is not at home all the year round, Chu Mo has been able to take care of himself since he was a child, and he never thought that he needed someone to wait.
But now, Chu Mo really felt that there were no young maids in the house, so it really couldn't work.
"It seems that if you have time, you should go and recruit a few maids to come back. Chu Mo muttered, walked out of the gate, and walked towards the gluttonous building.
Because before the year, there were still some things to communicate with Miao Yiniang.
When I arrived at the gluttonous building, I didn't see Miao Yiniang, but I saw my one-armed uncle first.
"Young Master, why are you here? I heard that you were in the Prince's Mansion a few days ago?
Are you okay?" the one-armed middle-aged man looked at Chu Mo with concern on his face.
"Of course it's fine. Chu Mo smiled and reassured the one-armed uncle: "That thing, how is it going?"
The one-armed middle-aged man said: "There are now one hundred and fifty people! They are already in place, I have personally tested them, and those basic skills, everyone has not thrown them away! After a year, there should be more than 500 more people to join. These are all the elites in the army back then, and they don't have any concerns, and they are extremely loyal to the old generals. However, I didn't use the banner of an old general, I used the name of a young master. ”
"What do they say?" asked Chu Mo.
"The young master wants to do something, so naturally they didn't say it, and they will fully cooperate. The one-armed middle-aged man said.
"That's good. There was a hint of excitement in Chu Mo's eyes: "After the year...... I might have to go to the army!"
"Joining the army?" said the one-armed middle-aged man with a smile: "How good the army is!"
Chu Mo saw a trace of envy and loneliness in the eyes of his one-armed uncle. This iron-like man obviously still misses his life in the army back then.
"Uncle One-Armed, don't worry, maybe, one day you will have a chance to return to the army!" Chu Mo comforted.
"Forget it, even if I go back like this, it won't be much fun. It's for the young master to do this now, I'm very motivated!" The one-armed middle-aged man looked at Chu Mo seriously: "Thank you very much, young master, for giving me this opportunity!"
Chu Mo smiled and waved his hand: "Uncle, don't say that, you are my elder and watched me grow up." ”
"Yes, it's so big in a flash, and it's about to start making achievements!" The one-armed middle-aged man sighed a little.
At this time, Miao Yiniang walked in from the outside, looked at Chu Mo, and showed a little joy in her eyes: "The matter over there in the Prince's Mansion is over?"
Chu Mo nodded: "It's over halfway, it's basically fine." ”
"That's good, I've been a little worried. Miao Yiniang said, and asked someone to send a few sets of clothes: "You should still go to this New Year's dinner, right? The New Year's dinner is not more than usual, but don't dress too casually and make people laugh. ”
Chu Mo smiled: "I was about to ask my sister for help, but my sister was thoughtful." ”
Miao Yiniang smiled: "You...... Wait a while, my sister will send a few maids over, but there are not a few maids waiting in the house, so it will definitely not work. ”
"Then you're welcome. Chu Mo said with a smile.
"What are you polite to your sister?" Miao Yiniang glanced at Chu Mo.
The one-armed middle-aged man sat there, looking at the two of them with some suspicion, although he knew that the young master was very familiar with this Miao Yiniang, but he didn't expect that the two would be so close. Seeing that the young master was good, he was also very happy in his heart, and said: "By the way, the tendons, bones, and skins of those Yuan beasts, the auction house, it is not recommended to sell them at one time, because in this case, the price will be lowered, and they are ready to build enough momentum in the first auction after the year, and then ship them little by little, so that they can auction the best price." What does the young master think?"
"Of course that's the best, anyway, as long as we don't cheat. Chu Mo said.
"They don't dare, even if they have the shadow of the sect behind them, they still have to do business in Yanhuang City after all. Miao Yiniang interjected on the side.
The one-armed middle-aged man nodded: "That's right, they all treat me like an ancestor now, and they don't dare to offend." ”
Chu Mo was here, and chatted with the two of them for a while about forming a force, and then said goodbye and left.
Finally on the day of the New Year, the entire Fan Mansion was lit up with lights, and the atmosphere was very festive.
Miao Yiniang sent ten maids, which made the originally cold and blunt general's mansion a little softer. These maids are all daughters of good families, diligent and discerning, and know how to advance and retreat.
After coming to Fanfu, I also liked this place without too many strict rules for the first time, and quickly integrated in. I get along well with those people in the house.
In the evening, a very low-key, unmarked carriage stopped at the gate of Fanfu.
The person who came out of it, after showing his waist card, startled the guards of the Fan Mansion and immediately came in to report.
"People in the palace?" Chu Mo was slightly stunned, and then thought of what Xu Zhongliang had said to himself, before the New Year's dinner, there was also a ceremony for awarding honors!
"It's supposed to be here to pick me up. Chu Mo changed into the dress of the party, and his temperament was even more upright.
Then, Chu Mo went out, and after seeing the man's waist card, he didn't ask too much, and got into the carriage directly. After entering, I found that the carriage, which looked low-key on the outside, was unique inside.
In the middle is a small coffee table with fruits and snacks on it, and around the coffee table is a circle of soft couches. The width is moderate, even if a person lies on it, there is no problem. Every detail in the car is unique and very finely set.
The carriage drove on the road, very smoothly, and did not feel the slightest bump.
Chu Mo leaned on the soft couch, closed his eyes slightly, and thought in his heart about what he was going to say and do when he saw the emperor and Marshal Fang at the award ceremony. Chu Mo had already learned some knowledge of etiquette since he was a child, but it was the first time he had directly dealt with a big man like the emperor and Fang Mingtong.
"I guess it's about the same as Grandpa Xu......" Chu Mo thought to himself.
At this time, Chu Mo felt that the carriage seemed to have turned a corner, and this bend ...... In Chu Mo's memory, he didn't go in the direction of the imperial city!
Every year, the New Year's dinner is held in the banquet hall of the Imperial City. That hall can accommodate more than 2,000 people to dine at the same time, and it is the largest banquet hall in the entire Yanhuang City.
"Did you change places?" the carriage had no windows, so it was impossible to see directly outside with your eyes.
Chu Mo frowned, and then, with a thought, he glanced at the coachman who was driving outside with jade.
"Yellow level three layers, physique level two, no disease. The information given by Yu was simple, but it made Chu Mo feel a little strange. Because even if it is royal, it is unlikely that a Yuanguan martial artist will be used as a coachman!
"This eldest brother, what is your position in the palace?" Chu Mo thought for a moment and asked in the car.
"Young Master Chu, the little one is in the palace, and he is a little guard. The coachman outside replied with a bit of respect in his tone.
Chu Mo asked again, "Then you came to pick me up...... I remember, under normal circumstances, I wouldn't have had that qualification. ”
"Young Master Chu is too modest, you are attending the palace dinner on behalf of your grandfather, the old general is working the front line, and it is also appropriate for the palace to send a carriage to pick you up!" The coachman's tone became more and more respectful: "We all respect the old general!"
Chu Mo sighed and didn't say anything more, but a strong vigilance had already risen in his heart!
Originally, he thought that this carriage was sent by the emperor to pick him up. Although the award ceremony was internal, it was personally presided over and witnessed by the emperor, Fang Mingtong and Xu Zhongliang, which should be the highest. Therefore, it makes sense to send a car to pick him up.
But now Chu Mo found out...... Looks like something went wrong!
First of all, the coachman outside, nine times out of ten, is not a palace guard! A third-tier Yuanguan warrior is just an ordinary guard? This is a problem in itself! Second, this person does not know that he is going to participate in the award, which is not surprising, but he actually did not say that he was sent by the emperor, the first assistant, or the marshal Fang...... That's the problem.
The most important thing is that as the carriage turned several times, Chu Mo could already conclude that this road was not the road leading to the palace!
Chu Mo didn't know that not long after he left, another carriage arrived at Fan's Mansion, but it was empty.
"Young Master Chu, it's a little too late, I'm going to speed up, you sit tight!" Seeing that Chu Mo was silent, the coachman suddenly said outside.
In Chu Mo's heart, a strong warning suddenly rose, and he barely hesitated and slammed his fist into the carriage on the side!
Boom!
Bang!
A bang!
The whole carriage shuddered violently.
This punch, Chu Mo did not have the slightest strength, under the power of the dragon elephant, he used Chu Mo's supreme technique, not to mention a carriage, even if it was a house, it could be smashed.
But...... The carriage of the carriage was not seriously damaged, and the fur attached to the carriage was shattered, revealing black steel!
The carriage of this carriage is made of stainless steel!
Bang bang!
Chu Mo threw out two more punches, blasting into the other two places.
The tremendous force made the two horses pulling the cart completely unbearable, let out a neigh, and fell to the ground. At the same time, the carriage rumbled and flipped directly onto the road, causing a burst of exclamations from passers-by.
Chu Mo had also discovered at this time that the entire carriage was actually made of a whole piece of stainless steel...... It's like a steel cage!
