Murdering Heaven Edge

Chapter 43: Old and cunning

Views:

The sky is near dusk, and the distant sky is filled with pink rays, reflecting a small half of the sky.

On the square of the Haoyue tribe, a large pile of bonfires had already been lit, and the blazing fires reflected the sunset glow in the sky.

Grassland people are good at singing and dancing. At this time, there are already a large number of young men and women singing and dancing around the campfire. From afar, you can feel the rushing enthusiasm.

A happy atmosphere!

With the arrival of the team of Princess Baolian and Princess Nayi, the atmosphere here also reached a climax.

A large number of young men and women, singing and dancing, surrounded the group of Princess Baolian.

Both Princess Baolian and Princess Nayi had happy smiles on their faces, and they couldn't help twisting their bodies along with the musical instruments.

Pang Zhongyuan walked to Chu Mo's side, and said softly: "Come along and enliven the atmosphere, don't be seen as abnormal."

Chu Mo smiled wryly in his heart, how could he know such things as singing and dancing!

But at this time, it could only follow the crowd and twist a few times indiscriminately. After all, he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, so the rhythm and softness of his posture are fine. After twisting a few times, he looks decent.

After dancing for a long time, the crowd stopped. Everyone's face was flushed and smiling.

Even Princess Baolian and Nayi had excitement on their faces.

Chu Mo was secretly vigilant, Elder Haoyue is indeed very powerful!

If Princess Baolian hadn't gotten the news in advance, if he hadn't seen those secretly arranged people with his own eyes, I'm afraid he would have been infected by the atmosphere at the moment. Think of this as a grand prairie dinner.

Then, someone who presided over the banquet announced that the open-air banquet had begun.

People from the Haoyue tribe began to move the tables and chairs, and arranged them in an orderly manner. Then, someone came up with food and wine.

All of them are special delicacies on the grassland, roasted whole sheep, beef and mutton cooked in a large iron pot for a long time, full of aroma.

Even Chu Mo couldn't help twitching his index finger.

Everyone quickly found their seats and sat down. Elder Haoyue, the leader over there, held up a big bowl and said with a hearty smile: "Today's banquet is to welcome my niece, Princess Nayi, and my nephew, Brother Lie." Prince! Let’s drink to our hearts’ content, and we won’t return until we’re drunk!”

"Dry this bowl of wine!"

Following Elder Haoyue's voice, everyone present shouted in unison: "Do it!"

Chu Mo took a sip of the wine in the bowl, and a spicy feeling came over him. Although Princess Baolian said before that Elder Haoyue would not tamper with food and drinks, she should still be careful. I used jade to identify these wine and vegetables, and concluded that they were non-toxic.

As the banquet started here, some young and beautiful girls from the Haoyue tribe began to dance around the bonfire.

These girls are charming in appearance, provocative in dance, or youthful and lively, or charming and moving.

Watching these beautiful girls dance is really a kind of enjoyment, even if you don't drink, you will get drunk after watching it for a while. Chu Mo sneaked a peek, and even Pang Zhongyuan couldn't help smiling, and looked over there a few more times.

Soon, most people drank three bowls of wine. Although Chu Mo didn't drink in such a hurry, he still had a bowl.

Elder Haoyue stood up again at this time, and asked loudly: "Are these girls beautiful?"

"Beautiful!" The drunken crowd replied loudly, accompanied by some people's whistles and applause.

Elder Haoyue laughed loudly and said, "Do you like it or not?"

"I like it!" The roar of the crowd was like howling wolves.

Elder Haoyue said: "The men and girls on our grasslands are all so forthright! It's not like those Central Plains people who are secretive and coy, which is annoying!"

"Hahahaha!" Everyone burst into laughter, and the atmosphere of the banquet was extremely enthusiastic.

"Then...you young people today, do you have anything you want to confess to your sweetheart?" Elder Haoyue asked loudly again.

Chu Mo thought: Here we come!

Sure enough, as soon as Elder Haoyue finished speaking, a young voice sounded over there: "Yes!"

Elder Haoyue looked back and saw his third son, Haoyue Geshui, looking at him excitedly.

"You brat... why have I never seen you have a sweetheart, who do you want to confess to?" Elder Haoyue asked with a smile.

Princess Baolian and Princess Nayi over there already knew what was going to happen, but at this moment, the smiles on their faces became a little stiff.

Haoyue Geshui suddenly turned his head, looked at Nayi affectionately, and said loudly: "I... Haoyue Geshui, Haoerlang on the grassland! If you like...you must like this brightest pearl on the grassland! Therefore, other Although those girls are beautiful, in Haoyue Geshui's heart, I only like Nayi!"

"Aww!"

At the open-air banquet scene, those people from the Haoyue tribe suddenly let out a burst of applause like howling wolves.

"The third son is the most handsome!"

"The third son is the bravest!"

"Only our third son is worthy of being the most charming pearl on the grassland!"

Haoyue Gemu who was sitting beside Haoyue Geshui also had a smile on his face, but there was a bit of gloom in that smile.

most handsome? The bravest

Haoyue Gemu took a peek at the excited third brother, and the seemingly happy but calm father, and suddenly calmed down, and said to himself: Wait until the day I take over the throne, let's talk about it!

At this time, the warriors of the Haoyue tribe in the field had already started booing, and shouted in unison in Nayi's direction: "Princess agrees!"

"The princess agrees!"

"The princess agrees!"

The sound shook the sky and echoed all over the world.

Nayi sat there with a somewhat stiff smile on her face. Hearing these voices, she took a deep breath, and then gently... raised her hand.

The sound stopped abruptly!

Chu Mo saw that Elder Haoyue's face froze slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Let me say something." Nayi stood up slowly, stood there gracefully, looked around, when her gaze swept over Chu Mo, she paused slightly, but passed quickly.

"First of all, I would like to thank brother Geshui for his great love for Nayi."

"Sister Nayi, I'm infatuated with you..." Haoyue Geshui blushed and said loudly with the help of alcohol.

There was another burst of applause all around.

Nayi lightly raised her hand again, and pressed down: "Everyone, listen to me first."

Princess Wang Ting, Yu Wei is still there, even if Wang Ting suffers major changes, even if Na Yi is now slandered and wanted by Brother Jin and Brother Yin, her status in the hearts of the prairie people is still incomparable. Even in Elder Haoyue's tribe, it's the same!

The whole scene fell silent again.

Over there, Haoyue Geshui showed a bit of embarrassment on his face, but his eyes were still full of excitement. In his opinion, the brightest and most charming pearl on the prairie must belong to him, Haoyue Geshui... No one can take it away!

"Here, I want to clarify one thing first." Nayi said softly: "There has been a sudden change in the royal court, and you must have heard that today's happy and lively scene, Nayi shouldn't have said these things to make everyone Spoiler."

"However, since Brother Geshui confessed his love to me, I have a few words to say first."

The muscles on Elder Haoyue's face twitched a few times, his eyes flickered, but he didn't stop Nayi. Just looking at Princess Baolian who was sitting there peacefully, her eyes became icy cold.

Obviously, he didn't think the young Nayi could have such wisdom.

Princess Baolian was looking at her niece tenderly, as if she didn't feel Elder Haoyue's gaze at all, and didn't even look at him.

"First, Nayi is not a wanted criminal!"

With tears in her eyes, Princess Nayi said loudly: "Nayi's parents, your most beloved king and queen, were poisoned by those two disobedient beasts, Brother Jin and Brother Yin, and their heads were beheaded by Brother Yin himself. !"

"So, Brother Jin and Brother Yin are the real murderers who killed the King and Queen!"

"Secondly, Nayi wants to ask my uncle to send troops to help Nayi, to attack the two traitors, Brother Jin and Brother Yin!"

Nayi looked at Elder Haoyue, holding back her tears.

Haoyue Geshui drank a little bit high, coupled with excitement, he immediately said without thinking: "Sister Nayi, don't worry, as long as you become my wife, I will definitely send troops..."

Haoyue Gemu on the side kicked Haoyue Geshui's calf secretly from below, and kicked Haoyue Geshui who was already a little unsteady to the ground. Then he looked calm, looked at the somewhat surprised crowd, and smiled. Hehe said: "Third brother drank too much and couldn't even stand still, so he knew how to talk nonsense!"

"I... I didn't..." Haoyue Geshui, who got up from the ground, wanted to continue the topic just now, but suddenly saw his father's gloomy and cold face, trembling all over, and hurriedly said: "Hey... I, I drank too much... too much! I'm sorry for embarrassing me... Sister Nayi, you...you continue."

Princess Nayi didn't seem to notice this scene at all. She looked directly into Elder Haoyue's eyes and said, "Nayi's father and mother have just passed away. Talking about marriage, I hope my uncle can understand!"

"At the same time, Nayi once again begged my uncle to send troops to help the Grassland Royal Court, wipe out the rebellious Jinge and Yinge, restore the grassland to a clean place, and give everyone justice!"

"Nayi believes that my uncle understands righteousness, so he can definitely help Nayi! Help the Grassland Royal Court!"

Saying that, Na Yi bowed deeply to Elder Haoyue.

The whole scene was quiet, and even the dullest person could feel that the atmosphere in the air became tense.

All eyes were on Elder Haoyue.

Elder Haoyue suddenly smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to help Princess Nayi, and said: "You have such filial piety, it is commendable! It is really not easy!"

"So, uncle agreed to Nayi's request?" Nayi asked directly.

A cold light flashed in Elder Haoyue's eyes, and then he said with a smile: "This matter is too complicated, and it really shouldn't be something that children like you should participate in. But don't worry, your parents are dead, I... and your aunt, are Your only relative will definitely decide for you!"

Chu Mo's eyes narrowed slightly, and he thought to himself: What a powerful old guy, he started to suppress Nayi with family affection and seniority.

Sure enough, Elder Haoyue continued: "You are my junior, and my favorite child! I will definitely take care of your parents' affairs! Brother Jin and Brother Yin are rebellious, killing fathers and mothers, subverting the royal court, I will definitely take care of you!" Troops will be dispatched!"

Elder Haoyue's words were categorical.

From all directions, there was a sudden burst of applause.

Chu Mo's eyes were icy cold, and he sneered in his heart: Will he definitely send troops? It's for yourself!

"As for marriage, you still need to be filial to your parents now, so it's really not appropriate to initiate a marriage." Elder Haoyue sighed.

The eyes of Haoyue Geshui over there suddenly widened, and he was about to speak, but Haoyue Gemu who was beside him gave him a hard stare.

At this time, Elder Haoyue changed the subject: "However, Haoyue Geshui is infatuated with you. I don't think you will reject his infatuation, princess. There is no rush to get married, but this marriage... can be settled first." Well!"

After hearing this, Na Yi's face turned pale.
