Wang Dafa felt extrely wronged and unlucky.
Zhao Er's betrayal was completely beyond his expectations. He had never foreseen it, not even slightly... he hadn't expected it at all!
He wasn't aware of Chu Mo's return from Great Qi due to secrecy, but shortly afterwards, the news of the big victory at Skybreaker Mountain made Wang Dafa very excited.
He thought his na wouldn't appear on the emperor's desk but would surely be imprinted in Chu Mo's heart!
Because the victory at Skybreaker Mountain was certainly from the intelligence Chu Mo brought back from Great Qi, and this intelligence... was provided by his own people!
So when Chu Mo returned from Skybreaker Mountain and didn't see him first thing, Wang Dafa had doubts in his heart. He wondered if he had chosen the wrong person to follow?
Did the lord intend to ignore and erase his rits and contributions?
However, Wang Dafa wasn't a fool. He had a vague feeling that things might not be that simple.
This wasn't apparent to him from Chu Mo, but the feedback from Chu Yan... was all too clear!
Every ti Chu Yan t him before, she would respectfully call him Mr. Wang, which pleased Wang Dafa, a man who had always shown off his nouveau riche face.
But since Chu Mo returned and then left from Skybreaker Mountain, Chu Yan's attitude towards him seed to have not changed on the surface.
But she wasn't discussing or asking him about certain things anymore.
Wang Dafa, suppressing his anger, sent people far away to investigate, using overt and covert ans to complent each other.
The results of the investigation made him break out in a cold sweat and filled him with rage!
The man who was sent to find Zhao Er was killed outright!
Killed without any reason, just after he entered the Imperial Capital of Great Qi. And prior to this, that man had only been in contact with Zhao Er!
Wang Dafa never dread that soone he trusted so much would deal him such a devastating blow.
He finally understood why Chu Mo's attitude towards him had changed dramatically all of a sudden. If he had been in Chu Mo's shoes, he would have turned against him long ago!
The fact Chu Mo had patiently endured and ignored him, was a large concession to his dignity.
When Wang Dafa understood the causes and effects, he didn't even feel wronged or aggrieved anymore.
The person he most trusted almost killed his own lord...how could he feel wronged? How could he claim injustice?
So, Wang Dafa was always looking forward to Chu Mo's return. No matter what, he must apologize in person for this matter!
Not an explanation, but an apology!
Unless Wang Dafa didn't want to continue following Chu Mo. As long as he did, he must apologize. It was imperative!
Fortunately, Chu Mo didn't take too long to return. He led the mining corps and coordinated perfectly with General Fan Wudi in a brilliant battle, wiping out the elite Tiger Head Army of Great Qi.
This eventually led to uneasiness and fear among the emperor and so people in the court.
Being so young with such remarkable military achievents wasn't good!
And then, Chu Mo returned!
Wang Dafa was actually present at the confernt ceremony, but he completely concealed himself. He didn't want to et Chu Mo there.
At the sa ti, Wang Dafa, the astute businessman, was sensitive to the subtle relationship between Chu Mo and the royal family.
The bestowal of a kingship, the granting of a gold token exempting him from death, hereditary succession, and the passing of the gold token to his descendants. It seed like very high favor!
But what Wang Dafa was attentive to was the emperor's ntioning that Chu Mo would soon go to his land to receive his title.
But... where was this land?
In Great Qi territory!
Chu Mo would own as much of Great Qi's territory as he could capture!
Did Chu Mo have an army in his hands? Of course not! So with what was he going to fight?
Wang Dafa had thought everything through after his eyes moved around twice. He also understood where the delicate relationship between Chu Mo and the royal family originated from.
He felt that his opportunity to prove himself...had finally arrived!
Chu Mo had no soldiers under his command, but he did!
How could it be, that as an elder of the Azure Dragon Hall for so many years, Wang Dafa held no power? It was rely that his power had never been in the lilight!
"I must seize this opportunity to regain the young master's trust in !" Wang Dafa closed his eyes slightly, stood in front of the gate of the Fan Residence, took a deep breath, and knocked on the gate of this residence.
At this mont, Chu Mo, who had just returned from a dinner party, was chatting with One-Ard Uncle and his grandfather.
Soone reported that Wang Dafa had co to seek an audience.
Without thinking, Chu Mo waved his hand and said, "Do not see him."
The people at the Fan Residence, naturally loyal to General Fan Wudi, followed the commands of young Master Chu Mo without question. They didn't care to worry about who Wang Dafa was.
Upon receiving the feedback, Wang Dafa, standing at the gate, felt his face burning hot, and he seed a little stunned.
He didn't understand. Didn't the young master understand his current situation? Why was he so confidently refusing to see him? Was he not willing to accept his apology? Or...was he oblivious to all this? Was he truly considering himself as the King of Chu?
No... no, it wouldn't be like that!
Wang Dafa vigorously shook his head. The Chu Mo he knew was certainly not a fool. Although young enough to be lightly regarded by anyone unfamiliar with him, anyone who knew what this young man had done dared not underestimate him!
Even the Emperor of Great Xia was extrely wary of Chu Mo. As for him, Wang Dafa... could he surpass the Emperor of Great Xia?
With this thought, Wang Dafa's body trembled slightly.
He figured out why!
Firstly, Chu Mo surely had a hidden card!
Although it was unclear what that card was, it surely existed.
Secondly, his own attitude...had not completely rectified!
Yes, asking for a eting at this ti could imply: Look, how about it? Even though I have done wrong, isn't it true that...you need personnel now? My coming is equal to aiding you, solving your imminent crisis! Hence, could we consider the mistake I made as a thing of the past?
With Chu Mo's pride, how could he possibly et him?
Wang Dafa wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, nodded to the guards at the gate of the Fan Residence, and kindly said, "Okay, since the young master is busy, I won't disturb him now. I will co to visit tomorrow!"
Having said this, he turned and left.
Having received the news, Chu Mo just smiled faintly.
One-Ard Uncle looked at Chu Mo: "Wang Dafa, he is a talented individual."
"Hehe, he is indeed talented, but... last ti I almost got killed by him." Chu Mo recounted the incident in Great Qi with a smile.
The old man and One-Ard Uncle were both shocked, looking at Chu Mo with sympathy in their eyes.
Obviously, if Chu Mo hadn't spoken up, they might never have known about these things.
How many people knew what the young crowned king had gone through behind his splendid achievents?
"I am really sorry for you." The old man said with so emotion.
"It's okay, I turned the crisis into safety." Chu Mo said: "But for Wang Dafa, I surely need to teach him a lesson. He ca to visit at this ti of the day, clearly realizing my current situation. He thought that by coming to to apologize at this ti, considering my personal needs, I will forgive him directly and not care about what happened in Great Qi."
Chu Mo shook his head and sneered: "He has misused this strategy... If I don't teach him a lesson, he might really think that I, without him, Wang Dafa, have to be a crown prince with no backing."
The old man couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. Looking at his grandson who he had raised since childhood, suddenly discussing the art of dealing and throwing weight among people, the old man felt very emotional.
Even though he always felt that his grandson was the best...
But when you think about it, he's only fourteen!
This was more than just excellent, he was a bit too monstrous! (To be continued. If you like this book, please co to Qidian (qidian) to vote for recomndations, monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users please browse m.qidian)
