The more Xu Zhongliang talked, the more excited he became: "Before we were still guessing who would inadvertently do us a big favor in Daxia. His Majesty also said that if you want to know who that person is, you must give him an award." A hero medal! No joke! Hahaha, Chu Mo, Chu Mo... you can do it! Great Xia Hero Medal, from the founding of the country to today, nearly a thousand years of history, a total of less than a hundred have been issued!"
Xu Zhongliang looked at Chu Mo, as if he was looking at a rare treasure: "More than eighty of them were sent out when the country was founded. In modern times, it has been more than two hundred years, and no one has obtained them." Even that old fellow Fang Mingtong has coveted something for many years but hasn't gotten it. You, a thirteen-year-old doll, actually got it. When the time comes, I must see the expression on that old fellow Fang Mingtong's face."
Chu Mo looked at Xu Zhongliang with a wry smile and said, "Grandpa Xu, can you clarify first, how did you know about this? Ordinarily... this incident just happened on the grassland, so it shouldn't be spread so quickly. Come out? And... the name Lin Bai, on the grassland... not many people know it?"
Chu Mo didn't say anything else. People who know him obviously won't publicize his name at will. On the one hand, it is to protect him. On the other hand, the person on the grassland who needs publicity and image building the most is Nay!
"Little guy, don't you underestimate the intelligence capabilities of our Great Xia Kingdom?" Xu Zhongliang smiled like an old fox, squinted his eyes, and looked at Chu Mo with a proud face. Has something shocked you at last?
Chu Mo couldn't help but wryly smiled. He really didn't expect that Daxia's intelligence ability was already so powerful. Looking at it like this, it is very likely that they have already penetrated into the interior of the royal court. Otherwise, it is almost impossible to get news about 'Lin Bai'.
Fortunately, they didn't know that they were Lin Bai right away.
Because even Da Xia knew about Lin Bai, wouldn't Da Qi know about it
Thinking of the dry old man who caused Qi Xiaoyu's avatar to collapse... Chu Mo's heart shuddered. Obviously, Da Qi must have known what 'Lin Bai' did on the grassland long ago.
"Grandpa Xu, can we discuss something?" Chu Mo looked at the happy Xu Zhongliang and asked carefully.
"Huh? Tell me." Xu Zhongliang looked at Chu Mo.
"Um... can you not tell other people about this?" Chu Mo scratched his head: "Once it gets out... I'm afraid too much trouble will come to me."
Xu Zhongliang pondered for a moment, then nodded approvingly: "You child, you have really grown up! However, for this matter, you must be rewarded, otherwise, wouldn't it mean that your majesty would break his promise? I think That's all, let only a few people know for the time being, such as the emperor, such as Marshal Fang Mingtong, they... will never betray you. Only in this way, it will be difficult for others to know your contribution to Great Xia. "
Chu Mo said: "When I decided to do this, I never thought of letting others know."
"This is a good job!" Xu Zhongliang praised: "A young man can have such a heart, such a courage, such an ability... Why don't you worry about the future?"
Chu Mo smiled shyly. Although he had known the old man for many years and Xu Zhongliang treated him like his own grandson, it was more of the care and love that the elders had for the younger generation.
It was the first time that he was praised so much like today.
"The information we got was not particularly detailed. It only said that a young man named Lin Bai destroyed Daqi's twenty-year arrangement on the grassland in less than a month. Daqi was buried in the All the dark threads on the grassland... were pulled out. Helped the fugitive princess Nayi, smashed the Haoyue tribe, and stabilized the regime. It is said that even the death of the second prince of the royal court, Brother Yin, may have something to do with Lin Bai..." Xu Zhongliang watched Chu Mo said: "Tell me in detail... the specific process. Turn around, I will enter the palace in the afternoon to meet the emperor."
"Da Xia's intelligence capabilities are so powerful, so what happened to me yesterday?" Chu Mo's mouth twitched slightly, and he looked at Xu Zhongliang: "There should be nothing wrong, right?"
Xu Zhongliang glanced at Chu Mo strangely: "The sufferer will not be held accountable anymore, who will hold accountable for you? It's Zhang Chong's place... it may be a little troublesome, that person has no big heart."
The chief assistant of the cabinet of the court, in front of Chu Mo, directly said that a big official in the frontier had no heart, and he really regarded Chu Mo as his own.
This person... is not just as simple as the elders caring for the younger!
The same thing, Xu Zhongliang would never say it in front of Xu Fufu.
"That's not a big problem." Chu Mo smiled and said, "His son was fooled by Xia Jie, holding a fake letter with a fake seal on it, and a group of fake palace guards, They came to trouble me. In the end, they were almost shot and killed by the people of the Prince's Mansion. They wanted to plant it on me, but they were saved by me... So, Qingzhou Mu's family owes me a huge favor! I won't look for it. It’s good for them to settle accounts, but they still dare to come to me?”
Xu Zhongliang stared at Chu Mo dumbfounded. As the chief assistant, his brain was not given for nothing, and he analyzed the reason of the whole thing almost in the blink of an eye. Now with a wry smile, he sighed softly: "It's so old to have talented people come out from generation to generation! Your brain is really... so smart!"
As he said that, Xu Zhongliang laughed himself: "That's right, the key lies in the last arrow. If you didn't have that arrow, then Zhang Chong would really hate you if you tortured Mr. Zhang's son to death. But with that arrow Jian, those things you did are nothing. Hey, I really envy Old General Fan... for having such a good grandson like you."
As he said that, Xu Zhongliang raised his head and looked at Chu Mo kindly: "It's really a blessing to be a brother with you, Fufu!"
Chu Mo smiled: "It's also my luck."
"To be a brother is to be a brother for life!" Xu Zhongliang said, and then said: "Tell me about the things on the grassland."
Chu Mo told Xu Zhongliang about some of his experiences on the grassland, except those about Xianfu and Qi Xiaoyu.
"Brother Yin was really killed by you. You killed it well! That kind of beast should be killed!" After hearing this, Xu Zhongliang sighed, and said with emotion: "A strong youth makes a country strong. If my youth in Daxia is like you So... that would be great!"
"I'm excellent too, Grandpa!" Xu Erfu opened the door and came in, just in time to hear the last sentence, and said with his eyes wide open, with a narcissistic expression.
"If you put the thoughts you put on girls into serious business, you can barely be considered excellent." Xu Zhongliang gave Xu Fufu a hard look.
Xu Fufu shrank his neck, looked at Chu Mo sadly, and said in his heart: Chu Xiaohei, what did you do on the grassland to make my grandfather so happy? I was scolded again!
Everyone enjoyed the lunch, including Xu Erfu who had been scolded.
Because at the dinner table, Chu Mo carefully told Xu Zhongliang that the Taotie Tower was the property created by Xu Erfu and him. Because Chu Mo knew very well that this matter should not be hidden for long.
As a result, Xu Zhongliang had a profound expression on his face, and said lightly: I have known about this for a long time! You guys are doing great!
Xu Erfu almost burst into tears, and finally there is one thing that can be recognized by his grandfather.
However, the old man still warned the two of them to keep a low profile, even if everyone knew that Taotielou was their property, they couldn't make a big deal out of it.
This point, Chu Mo and Xu Fufu naturally knew it well, they were not that stupid, and they took the initiative to give others the clue.
After the meal, Xu Zhongliang hurried to the palace. He wanted to tell the emperor that Chu Mo was Lin Bai. This was a great thing.
Regarding the possible upcoming war, Chu Mo and Xu Zhongliang didn't discuss any more. Because there is no need to talk about it, Da Qi's century-old plan has been destroyed, and if he wants to deal with the grassland, he has to think long-term.
But after so many years of recharging their energy, there will be a battle between Da Qi and Da Xia sooner or later.
Now, just taking advantage of the anger of the defeat on the grassland, the Daqi military has already begun to prepare for the upcoming war.
If Chu Mo didn't understand this, Xu Zhongliang wouldn't tell him at all; now that Chu Mo understood, Xu Zhongliang didn't need to say much.
Master Shoufu left, and Xu Fufu didn't have a chance to ask Chu Mo what he was doing in the grassland, because there was news that Qingzhou Mu had sent someone to ask for him!
"Do they still have the face to ask for someone?" Xu Fufu looked at Chu Mo and said angrily, "How thick-skinned!"
Chu Mo smiled and said, "Qingzhou Mu has probably not figured out what happened yet."
"Uncle Xu will let him understand!" Xu Fufu glanced at Chu Mo: "Leave this matter to me! I promise that Qingzhou Mu will be grateful to our brothers. If there is a crack between the eggs, it will be an extra harvest!"
Chu Mo glanced at Xu Fufu, and said with a smile, "What? Are you stimulated?" In the past, Xu Fufu rarely came forward to deal with such matters in person.
In exchange for Xu Fufu's temper in the past, unless Qingzhou Mu came personally, let him come forward in person? That is impossible!
The dignified young master of the Xu family... can't do anything. Even if the opponent is Zhou Mu's son, in Xu Fufu's eyes, it's nothing more than that.
Xu Fufu was silent for a while, looked at Chu Mo and said seriously: "I don't want to be thrown too far away by my brother." What happened today finally made Xu Fufu realize that this brother who grew up with him, The changes in his body were far greater than he imagined... much greater!
For so many years, it was the first time for him to see his grandfather keep Chu Mo for dinner in person; the first time he unabashedly praised Chu Mo; it was also the first time, at the wine table, he took the initiative to toast a junior!
Let a cabinet minister who is in power take the initiative to toast... What is the concept? Just a junior you like can make him like this
That's a joke!
Chu Mo looked at Xu Fufu's serious face, and couldn't help laughing and teasing: "Don't be discouraged, your ability to pick up girls keeps throwing me ten blocks away!"
"Get out!" Xu Fufu rolled his eyes, and directly asked his servants to prepare chariots and horses, and went to meet the envoy sent by Qingzhou Mu in person: "I want to take people away from my uncle Xu's hand... get ready Let's bleed!"
Chu Mo also left the Xu Mansion, walked towards the direction of the Prince's Mansion, and walked over.
