Chapter 875: There is no way back

Scholar Wu waited in the capital for a long time, but waited until the emperor was seriously ill and could not summon the reason. Lord Wu began to be anxious, if the emperor didn't let him go, he would still have to stay in the capital. But I think of my wife and grandchildren back home.

Scholar Wu didn't want to stay for a day, but he waited left and right, but he didn't hear the news from the palace, and Scholar Wu was also an old man who had been mixed in the court for many years.

If the emperor really finds out that he has something urgent, even if he falls ill, he will definitely send someone to explain his purpose to him.

But after waiting for so long, I didn't see anyone, let alone the news that the emperor summoned me. Lord Wu couldn't sit still, so he had no choice but to ask for news.

This also made Lord Wu regret it, he knew that the Empress Dowager would push herself out to make peace, and Lord Wu would not listen to any bullshit news even if he was killed.

Lord Wu knelt in the Heart Nourishing Palace, never thinking that there was actually a woman sitting on the dragon chair, and this woman was actually the Empress Dowager. That's a big rebellion! How could the Empress Dowager sit on the dragon chair?

Lord Wu was already shocked in his heart, and at the same time, he was inexplicably aware of something, the emperor has been recuperating from illness, so it is naturally the empress dowager who presides over the government.

And the Empress Dowager took advantage of the situation to sit on the throne, naturally unwilling to get out of the way, no one in this world can refuse the dragon chair, no one can find the temptation of imperial power.

Lord Wu's heart went up and down, it seems that this day is really going to change. And it was really not the right time for him to appear, he knew that he should have used his physical discomfort as an excuse to directly resist the possibility of angering the emperor, but he did not go directly to the capital.

Lord Wu secretly understood that this time the Empress Dowager must have something important to say to herself. I'm afraid that I will be more than lucky.

The Empress Dowager put on makeup today, but unfortunately Fengyue is not forgiving, no matter how delicate the Empress Dowager is. can't hide the traces of those years, those wrinkles, the ambition and ** in those cloudy eyes.

"Lord Wu must have understood the purpose of the mourning family, the mourning family likes to talk to people who understand, and Lord Wu must not like the mourning family to be in power.

However, the reason why the mourning family did this is actually the same as Lord Wu's original heart, which is the ancestor's country. For the foundation of the Nangong royal family.

Lord Wu has gone through several dynasties, and there must be no need to mourn his family, and he also knows that the first emperor and the Shun emperor are not suitable to be emperors.

And now the emperor is kind to Lord Wu. Lord Wu is naturally loyal, but does Lord Wu think that the emperor is really a good emperor? ”

Lord Wu was silent, just puzzled, and the Empress Dowager continued: "There are only two people in this palace, you and me. There will be no second person. Therefore, the mourning family might as well tell the truth to Lord Wu.

It also makes Master Wu understand why the mourning family wants to govern the government, and why the mourning family dares to look like the world, but the reason why it is violated. ”

Lord Wu naturally wanted to hear it, but he also knew that the more secrets he knew, the sooner he would die, so Lord Wu instinctively wanted to refuse.

But the Empress Dowager has begun to slowly tell the story of the year, that is, how Nangong Ming forced the Liu family to enter the palace and how to seize power.

The reason why the Empress Dowager said so much. Naturally, he hoped to make Lord Wu understand that only he was the most suitable to be the emperor. No one else deserves it.

A person like Lord Wu only admits death, and as long as he can convince him, he will be loyal to you, so the Empress Dowager is willing to work Lord Wu.

Sure enough, Lord Wu was surprised and heartbroken, and now he finally understood why the Mo family had to rebel, what the emperor did was indeed unfair and unauthentic.

And Lord Wu is such a smart person, she naturally knows that the Empress Dowager said so much to herself, which is nothing more than to express a point, so that she can lead the country and be the female emperor of the world.

Lord Wu reads the books of sages, no matter what the reason, Lord Wu is resolutely opposed to women interfering in politics, let alone being an empress. But Lord Wu only wants to save his life now, and the grandchildren are still waiting for him to come home?

There is only one end for being a loyal minister at this time, and Lord Wu doesn't want to die, so Lord Wu endures it.

"The Empress Dowager understands what the minister means, for the sake of the ancestral inheritance, and asks the Empress Dowager to make it clear, what do you want the minister to do?"

The Empress Dowager didn't expect Lord Wu to have such a reaction, but it is reasonable, the royal affairs, whether the emperor is unkind or not, are not something that a courtier can criticize. It seems that the emperor reused this person at the beginning, and Wu did have something extraordinary!

The Empress Dowager paused for a while before closing her eyes in pain, "The emperor's health is getting worse and worse, the mourning family is old, and the mourning family feels that it is not appropriate to have a war at this time." The mourning family is also the main peace, and I don't want to fight.

After thinking about it, the mourning family finally felt that Lord Wu was more suitable to be a messenger, and went to the border city to negotiate peace with Mo Li. I don't know what Lord Wu thinks? ”

Lord Wu had long heard that there were two factions in the DPRK and China, the conservative faction was the main peacemaker, and the radical faction was the main battle. Both of these views are correct, but in Wu's view,

Whether it is the main peace or the main battle, Yi Moli's temperament, plus there is a wife-snatching feud, I am afraid that there is not much hope for peace talks.

Even if he goes, he may not be able to convince Mo Li, let alone win any turning point for the war. When the emperor liquidated the Mo family, when he liquidated the families of those military generals in the capital,

I never thought that things would be like this, and I didn't expect that Mo Li would take the Huns without spending a single soldier, and directly change the Huns to the moon,

Now that there are the fierce cavalry of the Huns, coupled with the soldiers of the Mo family like gods, it is not difficult to reach Shanhaiguan.

Lord Wu was embarrassed and gave up his hand, with a sincere face: "It's rare that the Empress Dowager has entrusted me with a heavy responsibility, but unfortunately the old minister doesn't think that he has the ability to turn things around, and he doesn't think that Mo Li will stop asking for peace in order to reward the old minister."

The Mo family will take revenge if they have revenge, and the Queen Mother must also know it. I heard that the Hun King died under a glass of poisoned wine, and the Xiongnu princess who was close to her was also dead without a place to be buried. The old minister dared not take on this important task, for fear of losing the trust of the empress dowager. ”

The Empress Dowager narrowed her eyes, and her face showed a slight hint of dissatisfaction, but she immediately changed to a sad face. "Lord Wu is loyal and patriotic, and the Wu family has been a Qing official for generations, and he is also the main force of the Qingliu faction.

Now that the country is in trouble, the Wu family has been favored by the emperor for generations, and it is reasonable to repay the royal family, and they should do their best for the royal family. Lord Wu refuses to contribute to the country, does it tarnish the name of the Wu family? ”

The Empress Dowager's words were not light or heavy, but they forced Lord Wu to retreat, yes, if Lord Wu did not agree, the Empress Dowager had a way to make Lord Wu nod,

It's okay to press it with the eyes of the world, and it's okay to use the emperor's order to do nothing. It's just that the Queen Mother doesn't want to tear her face, so she politely reverts to herself and says so many royal secrets.

The weather was not hot, but even though he had entered the hall until now, the cold sweat on Lord Wu's forehead had not stopped.

"What the Empress Dowager said is that the Wu family is deeply favored by the emperor, and they should serve the emperor in both affection and reason. It's just that now the old minister really doesn't dare to guarantee that Mo Li will sell the old minister's face, the old minister is willing to give it a try, but if it can be done, please don't blame the old minister for the queen mother.
