543 Goodbye Dongfang Xue
took Nangong Jinse because after arriving in Yueguo, she was needed to deal with the affairs of Yueguo.
With Du Zijin, it was because the Heavenly Devouring Gu in her body could help her heal.
Although the strength of the two is not high, they are both useful, so they are not a burden.
When the army marches, Chen Mo can't break away from the army, he needs to be with the army.
And the speed of the march of the army is certainly not as fast as the march alone.
However, Chen Mo was not in a hurry, he had to wait for the army of the King of Zhenxi to reach the southwest before he could launch an attack.
In order to maintain the timeliness of the news, before sending the troops, Ye Yiren also specially asked the disciples of the Yin and Yang family in Mirage Island to dispatch two black Wu demons who could transform into human form, one was sent to the Zhenxi Army, and the other was at the disposal of Chen Mo.
In this way, the communication of information between the two armies will save a lot of time.
A month and a half later.
Chen Mo led the army to Maple Leaf County.
Xu Lie's news also came as promised.
At first, Chen Mo thought it was news about the strategy of the army.
But after reading Xu Lie's letter, Chen Mo couldn't help frowning.
The letter explained that Nangong Jin was in power and issued various policies.
Beauty pageant.
Increasing taxes.
Heavy prison.
Now the people of Yue have a strong sense of rejection of the Chu army in their hearts.
"Bang..."
In the tent, Chen Mo slapped the table in front of him heavily, and cracks suddenly appeared on the table.
If Chen Mo controlled the force, I am afraid that this table would have been torn apart.
"Husband, what's wrong?" The Yeyi women couldn't help but be shocked when they saw this, thinking that something big had happened. net
Li Wanqiu came to Chen Mo's side, took the letter from his hand, and looked at it, and soon, her face became a little unnatural, and said, "Jin Se, it's about your imperial brother."
Hearing this, Nangong Jinse hurriedly stepped forward and snatched the letter from Li Wanqiu's hand.
Maybe she couldn't believe it, or it was hard to accept, but after reading it several times, she said in a trembling voice, "Husband, this... That's not true, is it, is it wrong?"
"This is General Xu Lie's handwritten letter, he is not a person who has no purpose, he must have investigated it clearly, he will say this, and he has no reason to wronged your imperial brother." Chen Mo said.
"But... Brother Huang, how did he become like this, he is not like that."
Although Nangong Jin had already disappointed Nangong Jinse once last time in Yueguo, the image of Nangong Jin in Nangong Jinse's heart was too good.
She couldn't imagine how the once gentle and elegant royal brother could now become such a lustful, cruel, and murderous person.
In less than half a year, hundreds of innocent young girls died.
The ministers who advised were either killed or thrown into prison by Nangong Jin.
Public grievances are rife.
"People change, maybe he is no longer the royal brother in your heart." Chen Mo said.
"That's... What are you going to do with the royal brother?" Nangong Jinse asked.
"Now that the war is about to start, I won't deal with him in the short term, but if what your imperial brother does, as General Xu said in this letter, I will definitely not spare him." Chen Mo's fingers tapped lightly on the face-saving table: "In your heart, there is a candidate for a virtuous monarch."
Hearing this, Nangong Jinse was shocked: "Husband, are you going to abolish the imperial brother?"
"If this matter is true, maybe changing the Son of Heaven will be a good thing for your Nangong clan, and even for the entire Yue Kingdom. If he continues to govern like this, the Yue Kingdom will be destroyed in his hands sooner or later."
In order not to misunderstand Nangong Jinse, Chen Mo explained: "Of course, my purpose is not to annex the Yue Kingdom, nor to let the Yue Kingdom change the dynasty, the candidate for the new Son of Heaven can be selected from your Nangong clan, and the Yue Kingdom will also be surnamed Nangong at that time."
"But... But..."
It's still a little hard to accept.
"Well, think for yourself." Chen Mo sighed, then gave Du Zijin a look and asked her to persuade Nangong Jinse, and then he walked out of the tent.
The army rested in Maple Leaf County for two days, and then entered the country again.
Chen Mo noticed that Ye Yiren was following behind him, and said, "Yiren, is there any news from Lord Donghuang?"
Ye Yi shook his head.
"When we were separated, he told me that I would retreat in Yueguo for a period of time, and when you enter Yueguo, you should take a team of people and look for it." Chen Mo said.
...
Night falls.
After dinner, Chen Mo got rid of the Ye Yi people on the pretext of going out for a walk alone, and walked towards a remote courtyard according to his memory.
As soon as he arrived outside the courtyard, Chen Mo smelled the fragrance of flowers coming from inside.
Chen Mo didn't knock on the door, and flew up directly.
The yard is full of flowers and plants, and there is only a path in the middle that passes through.
The courtyard was dim and there was not a single light.
"I thought you weren't coming?" Dongfang Xue was squatting in the corner hoeing, looking at Chen Mo who flew in, stopped what she was doing, raised her hand and wiped the sweat on her forehead from the back of her hand.
Today, so many Chu troops are stationed in Maple County, such a big movement, naturally can't hide it from Dongfang Xue, as long as you inquire a little, you will know that the person leading the team is Chen Mo.
Chen Mo was slightly stunned.
Because Dongfang Xue at this time, dressed in coarse linen clothes and wearing a headscarf on her head, not only did she not apply powder, but she didn't even have a decent piece of jewelry on her body, just like a pretty village girl in a small mountain village.
There is not much left of the graceful and noble temperament she had when she was the queen and queen mother.
"How do you dress up like this?" Chen Mo raised his eyebrows.
There was a well in the courtyard, and Chen Mo took out a bucket of well water, mentioned it in front of Dongfang Xue, and asked her to wash her face.
When Dongfang Xue saw this scene, she raised her eyebrows and chuckled, "Want to toss me?"
Chen Mo: "......"
"I don't have the time, I'll have to go back later. It's a gift for you." Chen Mo took out a white jade bracelet from his arms and handed it to Dongfang Xue.
Dongfang Xue was slightly stunned: "I didn't expect you to prepare a gift for me."
She is not the kind of little white sweet, she puts her position clearly, and knows that in Chen Mo's eyes, she is a person who vents her desires......
And she only worships Chen Mo for the strong.
Therefore, she didn't think that she would receive a gift from Chen Mo.
She was not polite, she took it and put it on directly, then stood up and shook the hand wearing the bracelet at Chen Mo's hand, and said with a smile, "Is it good-looking?"
"The one I chose, can it not look good?" Chen Mo said.
Dongfang Xue glanced at Chen Mo, then squatted down, picked up a touch of water, washed his face, and then replied to Chen Mo's previous words: "I am a weak woman with no identity now, and I am in another country, if I dress a little more gorgeously, maybe I will be targeted by gangsters a long time ago."
Chen Mo was stunned: "Didn't I send someone to protect you at that time?"
