Heaven Slaying Blade

Chapter 397: Chu Mo's Little Uncle


The royal city of Chu Kingdom, from the day it was built, had never been as lively as it is now. The streets and alleys are decked with lights and decorations, it's even more lively than the New Year's celebration!

Especially within the city, it's bustling with excitement. A look of heartfelt delight can be seen on every person's face.

Most especially Nayi, who nearly drove the royal court maidservants from the Prairie that came with her to despair.

The majestic figure of their queen... Where has the dignity of a queen gone now?

She is completely like a little girl who has fallen in love, from making a public confession on the main street to now, her bright eyes have hardly left Chu Mo.

Wherever Chu Mo goes, she follows, perfectly playing the role of a dependent, lovestruck woman.

What's speechless is that when she previously met Fan Wudi, Nayi had been very polite, but she greeted him as an equal, since she was the ruler of a country.

But this time when she met Fan Wudi, she knelt on the ground with Chu Mo and bowed to him!

Oh heavens... is she going to let us live?

If these things were to be brought back to the Prairie royal court, wouldn't the adults peel our skins off when we go back?

The ceremonies and maidservants of the Prairie royal court were nearly in tears.

It was Chu Yan, understanding others' feelings, who arranged them all in a side hall.

It could only be this way, out of sight, out of mind.

Otherwise, they would die from either anger or fright.

A heroic Prairie queen, suddenly transformed into a clingy little imp, leaving Chu Mo at a loss for words.

At the same time, he also understood in his heart that Nayi was truly afraid of him leaving her again so much she didn't even care about the throne anymore!

On the main street, after Nayi finished her speech, she publicly proclaimed the transfer of her position to her younger brother, Lie Ge, and appointed Teng Fengge as the captain of the royal court knights, assigning him the full responsibility of Lie Ge's safety.

For a royal court knight, this was already the greatest approval!

Also, it represented the highest honor a royal court knight could achieve.

But Teng Fengge seemed not to be happy at all. He looked dispirited. Everyone knew why, so no one went to comfort him.

The citizens of Chu Kingdom saw him with great hostility.

Daring to raise a knife against our king, not killing you means our king is compassionate! Not bothering with you only because of your queen! Otherwise, do you think you count for something? Understanding Heart Realm, how about that? Don't we have any experts in Chu Kingdom?

Even a deputy master from Piaomiao Palace could easily kill you!

This wasn't an exaggeration.

When Chu Mo saw Tantai, Weichi and the nameless old eunuch in that moment, he was both speechless and moved.

But he didn't say any emotional words, because all of this was no longer needed to be expressed through words.

When the time comes, his actions would be enough to reply to their support.

That night, a grand banquet was held in Chu Palace, the King of Chu, returned to his own territory for the first time, raised his glass to celebrate with everyone.

"Honestly, I never expected that in two years' time, you folks could accomplish such feats." Chu Mo held his wine glass, looked at everyone with some emotion, and laughed, saying: "Has that guy Xu Fufu really become addicted to fighting? Is he still fighting?"

Liu Mei'er smiled gently, looking at Chu Mo and said softly, "Your Majesty Chu... "

Chu Mo slightly frowned and waved his hand, "Sister Meier, there's no need for this."

"How can that be? The country has its laws, and the family has its rules. I can't break them." Liu Mei'er said in a soft voice. "Fufu said he wanted to secure a large territory for our children. To ensure there is enough to distribute..."

Such words, if spoken by anyone else, would have been an outrageous defiance. But when spoken by either Xu Fufu or Liu Mei'er, it seemed completely ordinary.

Because everyone knows that the brotherhood between General Xu and the King of Chu has been true and deep since they were young.

"That guy ..." Chu Mo shook his head slightly, then looked at Liu Mei'er, "Where's my great-nephew? Why didn't you bring him for me to see? As his uncle, I should give him a meeting gift!"

Liu Mei'er blushed slightly and softly said, "He's with the wet nurse, most likely sleeping, Your Majesty. The meeting gift can be given later..."

Everyone laughed.

At this moment, Chu Mo shifted his gaze to the head of the table where the women were seated. A graceful and noble woman was sitting there, holding a little boy who was a bit over a year old.

The little fellow wasn't shy at all. He was robust and had a certain resemblance to Fan Wudi, but resembled his mother Dragon Qiushui even more.

Chu Mo's face instantly lit up with a smile, "Grandma... Can I hold my little uncle?"

Dragon Qiushui blushed all over her face, but gradually she accepted the reality and gently handed her child to Chu Mo.

Chu Mo put down his glass, picked up the little boy, and laughed, "Little Uncle, I'm your big nephew!"

"...." Everyone in the room burst into laughter.

Fan Wudi's face flushed slightly as he joked, "That's enough! Are you going to tease grandpa too?"

"Hehe, I mean every word I say!" Chu Mo laughed, "Great, grandpa keeps working hard in adding more little uncles and aunties to our family!"

Well then... in the end, he still teased grandpa.

But Fan Wudi wasn't the least bit upset. Despite having his own son, no one could replace Chu Mo in his heart!

After being teased by his grandson, Fan Wudi had to seize an opportunity to get back at him. He chuckled whilst looking at Chu Mo and Nayi, "Xiaomo, what about your marriage to Queen Nayi..."

Nayi blushed and shyly said, "Grandpa, just call me Nayi. Please don't call me Queen, it's too much..."

"Haha, okay, that's settled then, I'll call you Nayi!" Fan Wudi was not overly concerned with etiquette. His grandson's girlfriend, regardless of her background, was a junior to him!

Nayi nodded happily, and then cautiously glanced at Chu Mo, whispering, "Grandpa, our wedding...is not urgent, after all, we're still young..."

Fan Wudi snorted and looked at Chu Mo, sighed softly and said, "Xiaomo, no matter what you think, Nayi is a good girl, and I hope you don't let her down."

A touch of helplessness appeared on Chu Mo's face, but when he caught sight of Nayi's sweet expression out of the corner of his eye, he sighed inwardly: After what happened with Liu Yun, I already feel I have wronged Xiaoyu. But that was simply an unfortunate misunderstanding. Moreover, Liu Yun has already gone to the stratum space and she's also the princess of Lingdan Hall. It's almost impossible for anything to happen between us. It was just a beautiful dream. But as for Nayi here...

Facing a woman who loved him deeply, saying he wasn't moved at all would be absurd. However, accepting her as is... Chu Mo didn't know how to deal with the situation with Xiaoyu.

Especially when he thought about the difficulties Xiaoyu might be facing now. Chu Mo felt a stabbing pain and unease in his heart, like it was being held captive.

Chu Mo glanced at Nayi, who immediately met his gaze with a tender one. At the same time, Chu Mo could feel the anxiety and expectation deep in Nayi's eyes.

As if she was waiting for the judgment of fate.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were on Chu Mo. (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, please come to Qidian.com and vote, becoming a monthly subscriber. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users please use m.qidian.com to read.)
