The place where Master Wu chose to settle down was only one of the most ordinary inns in the border city, usually when officials go to a town, the place where they should live is a post house, but the border city now I don't know if there is a post house.

Lord Wu still decided to stay in the guest house, first, it was convenient, and secondly, it was not easy to make the Empress Dowager suspicious. When you get to other people's territory, you still play a score, that is, you have nothing to do when you are full.

Accompanying Lord Wu to the border city was Master Kong, who was a well-known old stubborn, who had let the emperor get out of the court, but now he has regained his strength with the power of the Empress Dowager. That's not the point, I heard that this old man Kong can't do anything else,

It is the most capable to please the Empress Dowager. The last thing the Queen Mother lacks is silver and good things, and it takes a lot of effort to please the Queen Mother.

But this old man Kong just opened his mouth and flattered face, and let the Empress Dowager reuse him.

This is not Lord Wu went to the border city to sue for peace this time, and the Empress Dowager was not at ease for a while, so she actually let Master Kong accompany her.

This Lord Kong knew that although it was dangerous this time, this was also the Empress Dowager's trust in herself, and after leaving, the Empress Dowager deliberately looked for Lord Kong and said, if Lord Kong stared at Lord Wu this time,

And if you work hard to promote this matter, you will definitely give Master Kong a promotion. Master Kong was proud when he heard this!

I didn't really want to go, but for the sake of that high-ranking official, I directly responded to this matter. Along the way, he stared at Lord Wu tightly, and Lord Wu only felt ridiculous.

This Master Kong doesn't know how to converge, just staring at himself, and he is not a stupid person. Don't you know that the Empress Dowager doesn't trust herself?

Lord Wu thought about the shape of the capital along the way, and only felt that there was one word 'hanging', and I was afraid that the capital would really fall into the hands of the Empress Dowager. I heard that the emperor is not as good as a day. The Qingliu faction in the DPRK and China is even more bleak.

Lord Wu deeply felt powerless against the imperial court, and knew that this time he was afraid that it would be more than lucky, so he specially wrote to his two sons, and he could endure it.

Don't be righteous, don't compete with the powerful for a while, and don't compare with traitors. Loyalty is nothing more than faithfulness. You have to endure it, and you can endure it for a while, so that you can preserve your strength. There will be a day when he will come out.

Master Kong was very dissatisfied when he saw that Lord Wu lived in such a humble inn, but Lord Wu pushed Master Kong back with a word. When I arrived at someone's territory, I thought I was under the protection of the Queen Mother, and I thought I was in the capital?

Master Kong thought about it, and his heart was empty. This time I came to the border city, but I was dead. This Mo Li wants to rebel, if he provokes him, he will kill himself directly, and I am afraid that no one will be able to avenge himself. Besides, my good life has only been a few days, and I really don't want to die.

Master Kong knew in his heart that the safety of the border city this time depended on Lord Wu, Lord Wu's wife and the late Mrs. Shizi were godsisters, and Lord Wu and Mo Li were brothers-in-law. Mo Liruo thought of this love,

It doesn't matter if it works out or not. will not take the life of Lord Wu. So at this time, it is important to save her life, as long as the Empress Dowager supervises Lord Wu by herself, and does not let Lord Wu collude with Mo Li, she does not let herself do anything against Lord Wu.

Master Kong stayed in his room honestly, and he didn't dare to go out at all, but ordered his subordinates to stare at Lord Wu.

Lord Wu personally repaired the book to Mo Li, and negotiated the agreed time and place, this is also the first time the two have met in many years, but unfortunately this is not what it used to be.

Lord Wu didn't bother to guard against Lord Kong at all, and there was no need for him to return to Beijing safely for such a traitor like Lord Kong, but now that he was surrounded by the eyes of the Empress Dowager, Lord Kong couldn't touch it.

Let's continue to be proud of Master Kong! It's not that you don't report it, it's just that the hour has not come.

Mo Li had long known that Lord Wu had entered the border city, and had found an ordinary inn to live in, and had figured out the background of Master Kong who came with him. So when I received Lord Wu's letter, I was not surprised at all.

Mo Li felt that this meeting was not a meeting of court officials, but just a meeting of relatives. The generals around Mo Li all thought that the Queen Mother's request for peace would never agree.

But at this time, the Mo family army is recuperating, so you might as well drag it out. This sum cannot be negotiated in a day or two, and some of them can be negotiated for a year.

Since we want to seek peace, we must show sincerity and patience, talk well, and talk slowly. Speaking of the Mo family army in the border city, they have enough spirit and have the strength to do it again.

Then take out the surrounding small cities in one go, and Mo Li means that it is best to let the surrounding cities take the initiative to open the city gates.

Of course, in the current situation, the possibility is not high, only its own strength, so that the surrounding cities have to be afraid.

This is the last word, so the generals agreed to the policy of hypothetical talks and delaying time. Before Mo Li makes a decision, he will definitely discuss it with the generals, and he is very arbitrary.

And the generals are also accustomed to saying their own thoughts, right and wrong. Everyone has only one purpose, that is, to avenge the blood hatred, that is, to overthrow the rule of the Empress Dowager.

Mo Li immediately replied to Lord Wu's letter, and agreed on the place and time of meeting, the place was naturally in the border city, not a place to talk about things, but in the private room of a teahouse.

The time is tomorrow afternoon, and this time is the most suitable time for acquaintances to drink tea and chat together. Master Wu smiled after reading the letter, it seems that Mo Shizi is planning to do Tai Chi.

Lord Wu directly sent the letter to Lord Kong, anyway, there was nothing wrong with the letter, so he let Lord Kong read it, and asked him to reply to the Empress Dowager in the palace.

Lord Wu disdains a villain like Lord Kong, but now that the traitors in the court are in charge, they can only avoid the traitors, they can only respect, and they can only guard against the traitors, and you must not really go against the traitors, otherwise you will die a miserable death.

Lord Wu doesn't think about himself, he also has to think about his wife and grandson in the capital, and the two granddaughters are the lifeblood of the old wife.

As long as the Empress Dowager uses a little means, she can make her relatives disappear, so Lord Wu can only secretly guard against Lord Kong, but she has to make a loyal appearance on her face.

After reading the letter, Master Kong immediately happily sent a letter to the capital, the border city intends to accept the request for peace, this time he really did not run in vain, he really wants to get a hero to come out.

Master Kong couldn't help but think of how beautiful and decent he would be when he returned to the capital, and how much his children and grandchildren would be treated.

The more Master Kong thought about it, the more proud he became, and even when he took it to dinner, he felt that the meal in this small inn seemed to be good, and it was strange to eat. Master Kong began to think again, after seeing Mo Li tomorrow, should he put on a show?

After thinking about it, Master Kong couldn't pay attention to it, and in the end, Master Kong decided to ask Lord Wu about this matter. Lord Wu is the chief official of this peace discussion, and he is just the person who accompanies him, so what attitude Lord Wu has, just follow him.

Lord Wu is right, it is better to understand in other people's territory. Besides, what kind of scenery the Mo family used to have in the capital, even if he was in front of the Mo family before, he couldn't afford Qiao. (To be continued......)
