The night banquets held by princes and generals were indeed different from those of ordinary people. It was also the first time for Chen Mo to experience that the place was not only large, but it turned out that one could eat at a table alone. There were candlesticks like tree forks, with so many candles lit on them.
Strange eyes.
Jiang You sat in the first place. To his right and below was Jiang Nu, to his left and below was Lu Chunqiu. Chen Mo was in the first place under Jiang Nu. Apart from these people, there were no other outsiders.
Chen Mo thought to himself, there are just a few people and a table, but now they are so far apart, doesn't it feel very...Chen Mo can't describe the feeling.
The food was served on very delicate plates, and was brought up one by one by the graceful maids, who gently placed it on the low table in front of them. There were not many dishes in each dish, but they were decorated in a very fancy way, at least Chen Mo was
You think so, is it because you are afraid that the guests will eat too much, so you make it so beautiful that people can’t bear to eat it?
Chen Mo didn't think that he was a person who cherished fragrance and cherished jade, so he moved his chopsticks, picked up a piece of food of unknown meat and put it into his mouth. Hmm~, indeed, it tasted great. This is the taste of rich people.
When Jiang Nu saw Chen Mo move his chopsticks first, he wanted to remind him that doing so while the host was trying to move his chopsticks was suspected of being a guest and not polite.
But her movement was stopped by Jiang You.
"How does the food taste?" Jiang You asked, holding the wine glass.
"Delicious." Chen Mo didn't have too many fancy descriptions. "Delicious" means delicious. If it tastes bad, he will say it directly. But after eating all the bad things, what else can be better than eating before?
Are they more delicious?
"Chen Mo, I want to toast you with a drink. Thank you for returning Jiang Nu to me intact." Jiang You raised his wine glass without eating.
Chen Mo also picked up the three-legged wine glass that his maid had filled with wine, clinked it with Jiang You in the void, and drank it all in one gulp.
As soon as the wine glass was put back on the table, the maid waiting on the side was about to pick up the wine jug and pour wine for Chen Mo. However, Chen Mo stopped her and took the jade bottle wine jug from her hand. Instead of pouring the wine into her own cup, she poured it into her own cup.
In your own bowl.
The maid on the side looked at the wine flowing like a jade dragon into the sea, and looked at the prince with some confusion. The prince just waved his hand, and the maid was relieved and quietly retreated not far behind Chen Mo.
"Your Majesty, I'm not used to using such a good quilt to drink. It's more comfortable to drink from a bowl." Chen Mo explained.
"It doesn't matter. There are no outsiders here. I might as well tell you directly that I don't like this small wine glass very much." After saying that, he filled the wine in a bowl.
"It was just a coincidence to save Princess An He. If it weren't for my appearance, Senior Lu would have been able to get Princess An He back. Xiaomin still has some selfish motives for doing this." Chen Mo said bluntly.
"Chen Mo, without your help, it might not be that easy to find outside, so you don't have to worry too much about yourself." Lu Chunqiu on the side answered.
"No matter what the reason is, I only care about the results." Jiang You didn't mind Chen Mo's confession. "You guys recognized An He with the jade pendant, which shows that it's fate. I'm curious, how did you recognize An He?"
Jade pendant."
"It was the mobilization in the school grounds. I was one of the prisoners in the school grounds at that time. I met you once, and it was also at that time that I accidentally saw that the jade pendant around your waist was very similar to the one on Princess An He."
"Call me Jiang Nu, I am no longer Princess Anhe." Jiang Nu didn't want to mention that title.
"Then I saw that her appearance was somewhat similar to that of the prince, so I guessed it. But at that time, in my mind, Princess An and Princess were already dead, so I cheated a little and saw her reaction to confirm it." Chen
Mo ignored Jiang Nu's displeased look.
"It seems that you are quite careful in observing things." Jiang You smiled. "An He is indeed dead. She is just my sister now. It's that simple."
"Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite." Chen Mo's meaning is very clear. I don't want to know about your family.
"The prince said at the beginning that after the war, the prisoners who went north that year would be rewarded based on their merits. I belong to the side of Tiger Hill Fort. I will not comment on that death-like action. I just want to live.
I don’t need to take any credit from Tiger Hill Fort for escaping from the battle, so this time I saved people..."
Chen Mo took advantage of Jiang You not drinking too much and quickly made his intention clear to avoid further delays.
"For this one thing alone, I can give you generous rewards, gold, silver, jewels, wine and beautiful women, you name it, or you can do like your two friends and ask for an official position, and I will give you glory, wealth, and honor.
I will also give it to you."
"I don't ask for much. Just remove my former prisoner status. Oh, and give me a horse and some expenses." Chen Mo said lightly.
"Is it that simple?"
Not only Jiang You was surprised, but everyone else present looked at this young man with some confusion. How could he see through fame and wealth at such an age? Some maids even thought that this guy was not pretending to be aloof, he was too straightforward.
Worth?
"It's that simple." Chen Mo nodded.
"You are so skilled, but I hope you can stay and help me." Jiang You said seriously.
"Don't refuse in a hurry. After listening to what I said, Jiang Nu lacks a bodyguard. I think you are quite suitable. As long as you can protect her for a while, I will wait..."
Jiang You didn't say any more, but Chen Mo understood the meaning and was not moved at all.
"Miss Jiang Nu has Senior Lu by her side, so Xiao Min is no longer needed. Besides, Xiao Min has other things to do, so he can't stay here for a long time."
Seeing Chen Mo's repeated rejection, Jiang Nu lowered his head and felt a little regretful.
Seeing Chen Mo's unmoved look, Jiang You also felt a little regretful. Now was the time to employ people. He was really reluctant to let go of a helper who seemed to be of good character.
"Chen Mo, there's no rush to leave. It won't be too late to wait until the injury is healed." Lu Chunqiu had no intention of keeping him, but let him stay for a while. "It's almost the New Year's Eve.
Leave Nian, and use this time to think about it. Didn’t you tell me that we want to learn from each other?”
Lu Chunqiu's suggestion is indeed somewhat popular. Being able to compete with a master of the four realms will be very helpful to his martial arts. But after thinking about it, there are still people waiting for news about him, and he doesn't want to be with Jiang You's status.
There are too many connections.
In the end, Chen Mo shook his head.
Seeing Chen Mo so determined, Jiang You couldn't make any move to force him to stay. Not to mention that he was a recalcitrant person. It would not be good to tell someone like this to someone who was kind to them. Besides, his sister would
Be the first to fall out with yourself.
Ever since, Jiang You stopped mentioning this and started talking about other things.
In short, Chen Mo didn't know how other people were doing with this dinner, but he didn't enjoy it very much.
...
The next day, when the genius had just dawned, Chen Mo left the palace with the reward mentioned by the palace. The only people to see her off were Lu Chunqiu and the maid named Zhu Yeqing. Originally, Chen Moyuan did not want anyone to see her off so early.
"Chen Mo, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, come here. You will always be welcome here." Lu Chunqiu did not mention the words of trying to stay. He knew that for a person who had already decided to leave, repeated attempts to persuade him to stay would be counterproductive, and he did not want to
Written and directed by Chen Mo and Their Relationship.
Chen Mo nodded, and then looked at the maid Xiaozhu.
"The injury on your hand can be treated perfunctorily the next day. Follow the method I taught you, but then you can use your left hand again." Chen Mo warned. After all, she was also one of his patients, so he would say more.
Two sentences.
"Yeah, okay, Xiaozhu understands." Xiaozhu nodded. "I still want to say thank you to Brother Chen Mo. Brother Chen Mo, please rest assured. Xiaozhu told others the prescription."
Xiaozhu also knows some taboos among doctors.
"Just tell me if you tell me. I didn't ask you to hide it. If your friends or other people of yours need it, they can also use it. But remember, only people who can use the formula can use this prescription.
, otherwise it will only harm others."
Speaking of this, Xiaozhu's face turned red. He just didn't ask Chen Mo about using it indiscriminately, so he made a joke.
"By the way, Brother Chen Mo, this is the Qingzhu wine made by Xiaozhu himself. I hope Brother Chen Mo will serve it." Xiaozhu handed over the wine bag prepared by his master, feeling a little uneasy in his heart, fearing that Chen Mo would not accept it.
Chen Mo never refused wine, so there was no reason why he wouldn't accept it, so he accepted it without any courtesy.
"Okay, it's time for me to leave. There's no need to see you off. I'll say goodbye to everyone." With that said, Chen Mo led the horse and left slowly.
"Take care." Lu Chunqiu clasped his hands behind his back and looked at Chen Mo's leaving figure with a smile.
"Brother Chen Mo, take care!" Xiaozhu waved his little hand.
In the highest attic of the palace, Jiang You and his sister stood there, watching Chen Mo go away.
"Anhe, do you like him?" Jiang You asked coldly.
Jiang Nu's cheeks were slightly red, but she quickly covered it up and said, "We are just friends, friends who share weal and woe together."
"An He, there used to be a little girl by his side, and they had a very good relationship." Jiang You learned more information about Chen Mo from someone.
"I know." Jiang Nu said in a low voice. She knew that the little girl named Yan Yu who was beside Chen Mo in the past sounded like Chen Momo's last words that day in her mind.
"If I die, can you return to the Chu Kingdom and help me bring a message to a little girl named Yan Yu in Xia Yang City, telling him not to wait foolishly, because I can't take her to continue eastward."
Chen Mo, goodbye.
Jiang Nu looked at the disappearing figure that was about to disappear in the distance and said goodbye.
Jiang You glanced at his reluctant sister, sighed, and left alone, leaving her a private space.
