ps: Thank you for the recommendation vote and the reminder ticket of the death づlin, thank you!

The fifteenth was a medium-sized manor, probably in a hurry at the emperor's behest, and the whole manor house was particularly desolate, with no servants or furniture, only dust scattered everywhere, and an overgrown garden.

However, considering the location of the house and the price of the house in the imperial capital, it still made Mullingail and others secretly smack their tongues, and in their eyes, this was undoubtedly an extremely valuable reward.

Eleven people were busy all afternoon, and finally the whole manor house was cleaned, and the lawn and garden were neatly manicured, which was a bit of an aristocratic family.

David Mo doesn't care about servant matters for the time being, he is not one of those nobles who has been spoiled since childhood, and he prefers to do everything himself. The first priority is to buy some simple furniture, after all, you still need to sleep tonight.

He has always been extremely frugal, and he rarely took out a thousand gold coins and handed them to Mullingail, wrote down all the things that needed to be bought on a piece of paper, and asked him to take someone to buy them as soon as possible.

After wandering around the manor twice, David Mo couldn't help but secretly speculate in his heart: how could such a precious place be desolate like this, and he didn't know who its previous owner was?

In the evening, a group of people came from outside the manor, and after one of them showed his waist card, the guards at the door hurriedly rushed in to report, and David Mo changed into an official dress and greeted him.

Xue Zhi recognized David Mo through his official uniform, took two steps forward and bowed, "Please also ask the Marquis to enter the palace with us." With that, he opened the door of the car he would bring and made a gesture of respect.

After confirming their waist cards, David Mo said "Yes Lao" to them. So he got into the carriage alone. When entering the palace, the saints are not allowed to lead their entourage. So although the guards were a little helpless, they had to stay at Manor 15 and wait for him.

Langning Street is very close to the location of the palace, and after half an hour, he will reach the outer gate of the palace, and he must get off the car and walk here.

Unlike last time, this time he was not led to any palace, and after fifteen minutes of stop-and-go, he finally stopped in front of an attic. There are a few big words written on it in golden light: Imperial Study.

There was no dazzling brilliance, the entire attic was simple and simple, and Xue Zhi, who led the way, stood outside the door and shouted: "The commander of the third division of the Royal Forbidden Army and the second-class marquis of the empire, David Mo, has arrived!"

After a while, someone inside finally responded, and Xue Zhi gently pushed open the door and said to him, "Lord Mo, please go in." ”

David Mo nodded, stepped into the attic, and had just entered the interior when the door slammed shut again. I saw that the gray-haired old man was sitting on the high platform correcting something, and a Xue scholar was waiting beside him respectfully.

Glanced at it a little closely. I felt that Xue Zhi was a little familiar, and when the Xue Xue turned his head to look at him, Mo Dawei finally remembered where he had seen it, when he was in the Star Academy, it was the letter of appointment he issued to Roberts!

didn't have time to think about it at the moment, he tidied up his official uniform a little, knelt down on one knee and said: "Weichen Mo David, knock on the saint! May the light and God shine and the emperor will have a long life!"

Yale XIII didn't look up at him, but the Xue Shi glanced at him and said lightly: "The emperor is reviewing the chapter, you can wait first." ”

David Mo's heart was shocked, and his back was slightly cold, this attitude was self-evident, the last time he came, the emperor at least gave him a stool. And this time he made a meritorious face, he was even allowed to kneel like this, and he didn't even bother to raise his head!

The atmosphere in the attic fell silent instantly, David Mo bowed his head and knelt on one knee, remembering what Bruwe said, and his heart was more and more sure, and sure enough, he guessed it again!

After half a ring, Yale XIII finally put down the pen, looked up and glanced at David Mo, who was kneeling under the stage, and said with a slight smile: "A few pieces of music have been delayed for a while, so you have been waiting for a long time, don't kneel, get up." ”

David Mo didn't dare to be careless, and after standing up, he said respectfully: "Your Majesty has every opportunity, and being able to wait for Your Majesty is also a blessing for Weichen!"

When Yale XIII heard his sycophancy, he chuckled softly twice, and said to Dongri on the side: "The credit is getting higher and higher, but people are becoming more and more restrained." ”

Then he turned his head to David Mo and said: "You have done a good job in southern Xinjiang, you have given the royal family a face, and the imperial court has finally given an explanation to the people! I asked you to come here today, mainly to hear your views on the war in southern Xinjiang." ”

I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in Yale XIII's gourd, David Mo became more and more restrained, bowed his head and said: "Military affairs, Weichen dare not discuss it." ”

Yale XIII coughed lightly, frowned slightly, and said: "You are a leading general of the second grade, why do you want to talk about it! Say whatever you want, forgive you for your innocence!"

Seeing that he really couldn't hide, David Mo had to think for a moment and said cautiously: "That Weichen has the audacity to speak...... The incident in southern Xinjiang is by no means accidental, and the Romans must have planned it in advance. Although it is temporarily calm, Weichen thinks that the war will continue, and even the scale will increase!"

When he said this, he raised his eyes slightly to look at Yale XIII's reaction, and saw that there was no displeasure on his face, before he continued: "And it is likely that there will be a new flashpoint in the war, and all borders with the Roman Empire may become a breakthrough!"

Hearing this, Yale XIII's eyes flickered slightly, and he said lightly: "Then according to your meaning, this war is inevitable?"

David Mo hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "It's not unavoidable, since ancient times, it has been nothing more than a land reparation......

Before Yale XIII could speak, Dongri took the lead in scolding: "Nonsense! The rebels and thieves dare to talk about cutting land and paying reparations!" Then he turned to Yale XIII and said, "I beg Your Majesty to behead this fang as an example!"

A cold light flashed in David Mo's eyes, and he scolded secretly in his heart: This old eunuch is really shameless, obviously the emperor asked me to say it, and he is even ready to ask me for the guilt!

Fortunately, Yale XIII didn't think so, he shook his head and said: "The people of Tranquility have been like this since ancient times, he just told the truth...... motioned to Dongri to step aside, and then he continued to David Mo: "This issue is too wide-ranging, let's put it aside for the time being." ”

He changed the subject and asked, "I heard that you met a necromantic cultivator on the way, and you yourself were seriously injured, how is your health now?"

Hearing him mention the Wuka incident, David Mo's eyes were a little gloomy, and he said in a low voice: "Weichen is no longer in a big problem now, but he has pity for the soldiers, and the former servants have died one after another......"

Yale XIII nodded and sighed: "The dynasty has not declined for thousands of years, and it is precisely because of these singing and crying soldiers that the royal family will definitely not fail them!"

This topic was a bit heavy, and he didn't continue to discuss it, and said casually: "Why don't you go to Qiubo City, now that it belongs to your territory, take a moment to take a look." ”

His voice fell, but he didn't expect David Mo to suddenly turn over and kneel, and said in a deep voice: "Regarding the matter of Fengyi, Weichen is trying to report to the saint!"

Yale XIII was a little curious: "What's the matter with the fiefdom?"

David Mo's eyes were sincere, and he said in a deep voice: "Since entering southern Xinjiang, relying on the glory of the saint, the ministers have achieved a meager inch. The saint does not regard his ministers as vulgar and despicable, and he is often promoted by grace, and the ministers have already been grateful! However, the matter of fiefdom is rare in ancient and modern times, and the merits of the ministers are really deserved! I have been tossing and turning for days and have not ......been able to sleep at night."

When he said this, his eyes began to redden, and he choked up: "Therefore, Weichen begs His Majesty to take back his life!" After saying that, he was almost lying on the ground, and his whole body kept sobbing.

Even though Yale XIII was already hard-hearted, after listening to his statement, he couldn't help but be slightly moved, got up from his chair, and walked down the steps to help him up.

His eyes flickered slightly, and he pretended to reprimand: "The whole world is not the king's land, I am willing to reward you, why are you so worried!

David Mo wiped his tears with his cuffs, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty's reward is certainly free, but Weichen is not worthy of such a heavy reward! If Your Majesty refuses to take back his life, the minister will not set foot in Qiubo City half a step in this life!"

There was a resoluteness in his eyes, as if if he would rather die with a bang on the ground than accept a fiefdom if Yale XIII did not agree.

When Yale XIII saw him like this, he scolded: "Why are you so ignorant of what to do, this is my painstaking ......."

Hearing his words, David Mo was in a trance, and he even began to suspect that maybe things weren't so bad, but now that the arrow was on the line, he had no choice but to go on!

Fortunately, Yale XIII didn't scold for too long, his tone gradually softened, and he said abruptly: "It's also that I didn't think it through, and everyone made money and ruined bones, and this reward is indeed difficult for you......"

He waved his hand and said lightly: "That's it! This time I will make an exception for you, and I won't hand over the hot potato of Qiubo City to you!"

Seeing David Mo's relieved look, he pretended to scold: "You don't cherish such a good place in Qiubo City! If you regret it in the future, I won't give it to you again!"

He had an angry look on his face, but the tone of his speech seemed to be a lesson to his children and nephews, and Dongge, who was waiting in the study, was secretly frightened: The emperor seemed to be a little annoyed because of the heavy reward two days ago, but he didn't expect this Mo David to be so clever......

David Mo hurriedly smiled, and didn't say anything, and after Yale XIII asked him to leave, a few Xue people came from outside the door and sent him out of the palace.

When his figure completely disappeared from view, the smile on Yale XIII's face dissipated, looked at the large stack of concertos on the table, and said coldly: "If everyone can be as sensible as him, this world will be peaceful!"

Speaking of this, he breathed a sigh of relief slightly, took out a piece of the recital and handed it to Dongri, and said in a cold voice: "Deputy Minister of Supervision Hasaqi, who has slandered important officials of the imperial court out of nothing! Immediately let the Criminal Department take people to ask them for their crimes!"

Donggeri's face was a little embarrassed, and he stepped forward and said in a low voice: "The emperor has forgotten that officials above the third rank must be interrogated by the Military Aircraft Department before they can be ...... by the Criminal Department."

Hearing his reminder, Yale XIII threw the recital on the table, his eyes flickered with a cold light, and muttered: "I haven't touched an official above the third rank for many years, and I have forgotten this ......" (to be continued......
