Creation Color Master

Chapter 389 In one thought

Chu Mo noticed from the beginning that Li Wei had been testing him, and he also knew that he had doubts about his identity.

It can be said that since he entered the city, while Li Wei was fawning on him at the city gate, he was also secretly observing him, especially the clothes he was wearing, where his eyes lingered the longest.

The clothes she wore were made by the actors in the theater. The materials they chose were not the most expensive, but they were the most sturdy and durable. The embroidery and decorations on them were also embroidered by them.

It was this point that made Li Wei have thoughts that he shouldn't have, and also planted a seed of doubt in his heart.

Also, on the way to Heaven and Earth, Li Wei allowed Chu Mo to pick any spiritual object on both sides of the street. When he made the bold promise to pay for it, he was also testing Chu Mo.

Chu Mo was thinking in his mind, and during this time Li Wei was observing Chu Mo's expression.

He was sure that Chu Mo was tempted by no less than ten spiritual objects along the way, but in the end he only bought two after comparing prices. These two spiritual objects were the most reasonably priced among the dozen or so spiritual objects, which showed that Chu Mo had been calculating carefully.

In his eyes, this was not how a young master of an aristocratic family or someone from a top aristocratic family should behave. Shouldn't children like them regard money as dirt?

Also, he could keep emphasizing that he would pay the bill, but Chu Mo remained unmoved. He felt that this was a habit formed by Chu Mo's financial constraints.

If he had doubts before, then this phenomenon confirmed his suspicions.

What's more, Chu Mo looked like he had never seen the world in Heaven and Earth, which made him even more convinced.

He had always believed that the young man who followed King Xianyang and called him uncle was at least a royal relative, and Chu Mo's various behaviors did not seem like those of a royal relative.

Thinking about what happened before, this showdown happened.

He now wanted Chu Mo to explain clearly what his identity was.

When Chu Mo saw Li Wei revealing his cards, he chuckled inwardly. Could it be that the governor couldn't hold back so soon?

Chu Mo smiled and said, "You have been observing me all this time, and you have finally developed doubts about me. Well, I will show you my true identity. You will be the first person to know my identity in detail. You will have to bear the consequences if I tell you."

Looking at Chu Mo's calm eyes, Li Wei gritted his teeth and nodded, "You say, I will bear all the consequences."

Chu Mo smiled, his smile full of sarcasm, and said: "As a mere governor, who gave you the courage to say such a thing? But since you want to know, I will tell you today."

"I'm asking you one last time. Do you really want to listen?"

Then Chu Mo sneered, staring at Li Wei who was sitting opposite him.

Seeing that Chu Mo was hesitant to reveal his identity, Li Wei kept exerting psychological pressure on himself, hoping to win without fighting. Li Wei sneered and said, "My Lord, please speak quickly."

Chu Mo slowly stood up and said, "Okay, then I'll tell you. My real identity is the owner of the Hongchen Theater in Yong'an Town, Liufeng County, Haozhou. I'm quite famous in the entire Liufeng County."

Hearing Chu Mo reveal his identity, Li Wei showed joy and thought to himself that he had guessed right. He was so excited that he even sat up from the bench instantly.

Chu Mo smiled softly, walked to Li Wei, slowly pressed him down on the bench, and said, "Why are you so excited, Li Taishou? Are you impatient to catch me?"

"Before you arrest me, you'd better wait for me to finish what I'm saying."

After saying that, he took out two tokens from his arms and gently threw them to Li Wei.

Li Wei grabbed the two tokens in his hands with great disdain, but the heavy and cold feeling in his hands made his heart sink.

But he still managed to say, "Sir, didn't I tell you? I have never seen these two tokens before. Could you explain to me what they are?"

Chu Mo patted Li Wei on the shoulder and said, "Okay, please look at the token with the word 'Dark' written on your left. The official title it represents in the Dark Guard is called Dark Guard Censor. His status is second only to the Dark Guard Lord, Shadow Boss. His role is, of course, to command the Dark Guards of the entire state and be responsible for intelligence gathering and other tasks."

When Li Wei heard this, the proud expression on his face disappeared, his complexion suddenly turned very ugly, and his originally straight back slowly bent down.

Chu Mo ignored Li Wei, who seemed to have lost his spirit, and continued talking to himself.

"Then I'm looking at the 'shadow' token in your other hand. The official title it represents in the Shadow Guard is called Shadow Guard Commander, which represents the power to inspect and supervise all officials. Even if a provincial governor commits an illegal act, this order can be used to arrest him and bring him to the imperial capital for punishment by the emperor."

"How is it? Did you understand what Governor Li said?"

"bang"

The two tokens fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

Looking at Li Wei again, his face was pale and his whole body was limp. He slipped off the chair and didn't even have the strength to stand.

"Chu Mo looked at the frightened Li Wei and said, "If Governor Li doesn't believe it, he can use his family's ability to find out if what I said is true."

Chu Mo's words were like a heavy hammer, making Li Wei unable to recover for a long time.

It was not until Chu Mo walked over, picked up the two tokens and put them in his arms that Li Wei regained consciousness from the stimulation of the static and dynamic.

He knelt down and crawled in front of Chu Mo, knocking his head hard on the floor, and said, "Sir, I was blinded by lard for a while, so I dared to doubt you. I beg you to forgive me this time."

"Sir, I have already arranged the encirclement and suppression of the Xie family as you asked me to do. We will act tonight and ensure that no one will be left alive."

"Sir, I am willing to atone for my sins. Please give me a chance. Please give me another chance."

Chu Mo said with a smile: "What are you doing, Li Taishou? I remember that I reminded you more than once just now. It was you who swore to doubt me all the time."

"Also, regarding the matter of destroying the Xie family, you have no right to negotiate with me. If it weren't for the trouble, I wouldn't have come to you. If it weren't for the trouble, I would have wanted to deal with your Li family as well."

"However, my Li family is also considered a big family in Yunzhou, and we have the support of our ancestors who have made great military achievements. It is naturally not appropriate for me to take action against you. So, when your uncle returns from the imperial capital, you will naturally hand over the power to him."

"As for how my uncle deals with your Li family, I will not interfere anymore."

Li Wei thought of the prince who was usually amiable, but he knew that although Prince Xianyang had a good reputation, he was also very picky. If Prince Xianyang knew about this, not only he but also the Li family would be doomed.

But Li Wei still refused to give up. He kowtowed and said, "Sir, please have mercy. My Li family is willing to give back all the money we have embezzled over the years. I only ask that you can give my Li family a way out."

"By the way, I have not only prepared a welcoming banquet for you, but I have also brought you gifts. Let them bring them up now."

As he spoke, he clapped his hands.

Chu Mo just watched Li Wei's performance quietly to see what tricks he was going to play.

Following the sound of clapping, six figures soon walked into the room in an orderly manner, each holding a tray in their hands.
