After the first fool

Chapter 153

Heaven Prison.

Bai Mo sat cross-legged in the prison, dressed in white obscene clothes, he sat firmly like a mountain, with torches hanging on the walls, the surrounding cold walls were covered with cobwebs, and there was a pile of straw under his body. There is a faint light coming in obliquely from the outside.

"jingle"

The sound of the keys colliding from far to near, it should be the old guard of the cell boss. Although Bai Mo is a prisoner, he is the prince of the dynasty after all, and he has the power all over the world. Who dares to neglect him?So even though he is in a cage, his food and clothing expenses are by no means what ordinary prisoners can enjoy.

"My lord." Standing outside the cage, the prison chief called out courteously to Bai Mo, who was taking a nap with his eyes closed, took out a letter from his arms, and threw it in through the gap in the wooden bars of the cage: "My lord, this is the palace. sent from inside."

Palace?

Bai Mo's ears moved slightly, slowly opened his eyes, got up, and picked up the letter. If there was anyone who could send him a letter at this time, and it happened to be someone from the palace, the only one he could think of was one.

He opened the letter eagerly, and as expected, he saw a series of handwriting that resembled ghost-drawing symbols. Bai Mo carefully appreciated it. The writing was powerful, but the places that should be used were too small, and the places that should not be used were used too much. Shaking her head, it seems that the emperor's sister-in-law is not both talented and virtuous, at least this word, she wrote it really a bit unsightly.

What the letter said basically meant to tell Bai Mo not to anger the Prime Minister, and if he was released from prison or had any accidents in the future, he should not implicate Prime Minister Dao's family and life.

The corner of Bai Mo's mouth curled up into a smile, a little helpless: "Even if I promise you, I can't help myself."

Close your eyes, carefully put the letter in your arms, and put it close to your body, as if it was a rare treasure.

Bai Mo admired Mo Xiaoran for being able to think of all kinds of consequences just because of the court, if she was a man, she might be a pillar of the country, right?

If he had a choice, he would also like to agree to her. The prime minister is indeed just a shield for being pushed out, it can be said that he is an abandoned son in the hands of the emperor's brother!

He knew the soldiers under his command too well, and they were all loyal and courageous warriors. Before he went to prison, he had already signaled them not to act rashly, but he didn't know how many of them could do it.

If, as the emperor's wife said, it turns into a riot in the end, will the two countries take advantage of the chaos to sneak attack?
Will the emperor abandon the prime minister to calm down this fight?If the latter, how will she deal with herself by then?Without the prime minister as her support, she would be unable to move an inch in the palace, and she might even be implicated.

Bai Mo thought a lot, and had to admit that the emperor was too impatient this time. Maybe it was his actions in Dali Temple that caused him a crisis. road.

Everything he holds in his hands, as long as the emperor speaks, he will calmly hand it over to him after ensuring that nothing will be lost in the Bai family.

Misty Rain Building.

"Master, the border is in turmoil now, do you need to take action to suppress it?" Sui Lang watched as he kept sitting quietly since he knew that the soldiers on the border wanted to seek justice for Bai Mo and shot four arrows towards the imperial city. It seems to be thinking, it seems to be contemplating.

Bai Qingluo put away the trance in her eyes, and said in a deep voice, "No need."

"But if the soldiers rush into the imperial city..." Sui Lang hesitated. The 80 elite soldiers in the hands of the regent can be said to be brave and experienced. Weak resistance can't stop the cavalry of the army at all. If the soldiers come to the city, Bai Zixu's throne will have to be replaced.

But if Bai Zixu is brave enough to release Bai Mo directly to quell the fighting, then he will also lose a fierce general. In order to quell the anger of the 80 army, the prime minister must die!At that time, Bai Zixu will definitely lose a right-hand man, and he will be even more unable to compete with Bai Mo.

"He chose a dead end for himself," Bai Qingluo said with a smile, raising his eyebrows slightly.

"Master, do you really want to let the court continue to be chaotic? Xuanyuan Wushang has already returned to the country, and the servant always feels that he will not let go of such a good opportunity." Sui Lang reminded that Xuanyuan Wusang has always been meticulous, this time However, if Dongyao had civil strife, he would definitely send troops to take the opportunity to annex the cities on the border of Dongyao and expand Xuanyuan's territory, and Lan Yu would probably not stand by and watch.

"Xuanyuan Wushang will never act." Bai Qingluo said firmly, with a slight smile, his eyes were dark and dull.

"But..." How could he give up such an excellent opportunity?Sui Lang doesn't understand.

Bai Qingluo didn't answer, but just raised the teacup on the table, shook it a few times, looked at the bottomless black eyes reflected on the tea surface, and slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

Xuanyuan Wushang will not take any action. If he dares to act recklessly, Bai Mo will definitely contact Bai Zixu. They haven't completely broken up yet, and they are still monarchs and ministers and brothers in name. Maybe they can fight to the death for the power in their hands, but is it true? The foreign enemy is now, and they will definitely join hands to fight against the enemy.

Xuanyuan Wushang would not be so stupid as to act at this point in time, he would continue to wait.

Bai Qingluo's eyes flickered slightly, and she drank the tea cup in her hand. A trace of worry flashed in her eyes. If Bai Zixu gave up the prime minister and pushed him out to resolve the conflict, how would she deal with herself?

Thinking of the difficult situation she would face, Bai Qingluo couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Cining Palace.

The Empress Dowager leaned on the soft couch dejectedly, her expression was no longer the spirit of the past, as if there was a wave of unlovable ashes, "Mother Gui, do you think the Ai family did something wrong?"

If she hadn't proposed to act first, Huang'er might not have attacked Bai Mo so quickly;

If she hadn't told Huang'er about the Dali Temple, he wouldn't be so reckless;

in case……

But there are no ifs in this world. Seeing the empress dowager's expression of regret, Nanny Gui comforted her, "Your Majesty, in fact, things are not as bad as we imagined. I believe in the emperor. He is still so young and has great ambitions. He will surely be able to survive." Get through this calamity, definitely."

I don't know if she was infected by Nanny Gui's self-confidence, the queen mother also nodded slowly, leaning back on the chair wearily, Nanny Gui stepped forward with a wink, and kneaded her shoulders for her.

"Concubine Xue is here—" the eunuch's shrill voice came in from outside the hall, the queen mother forced a loving smile, and sat dignifiedly on her head, while Liao Xue walked in slowly, walking towards the The queen mother bowed profusely: "The concubine pays respects to the queen mother."

The Empress Dowager raised her head slightly, her eyes flickered a few times: "Get up."

"Thank you, Empress Dowager." Liao Xue stood up, lowered her head, thinking about how to blow the air to the Empress Dowager.There was a trace of coldness in her eyes, but when she raised her head, she smiled coquettishly, her smile was like a gorgeous flower bud slowly blooming, it was extraordinarily charming, "Queen Mother, I have something to say to Queen Mother alone."

The Empress Dowager raised her eyebrows slightly, and after thinking for a while, she waved away the servants in the Palace of Compassion, including her right-hand man, Nanny Gui, who sat dignifiedly on the soft couch, with a gentle smile on her lips, "You What do you want to talk to Aijia about?"

"Queen Mother," Liao Xue's expression was a little dignified, and Zhang Qi, who was upright, fell to the ground with a thump at her, so fast that there was no time or opportunity for him to react.

There was a trace of surprise across the back of the mother, and she said in her mouth: "What are you doing? Get up quickly, and talk when you have something to say."

"No," Liao Xue bit her lips lightly, with white tooth marks on her lips, she took a deep breath, and with a determined look, she said without hesitation: "The concubine has heard what my father said. The Japanese court is in turmoil, and the court system is unstable."

The empress dowager's face turned cold, and there was an icy aura all over her body, which made people's scalp tingle, but it was only for a moment. She quickly calmed down and smiled: "The harem cannot talk about government affairs indiscriminately."

"Queen Mother, this concubine knows that the next words are really treasonous, but," she clenched her fingers tightly and held the skirt on her knees, "this concubine can't help it." After finishing speaking, she solemnly kowtowed to the queen mother , his forehead collided heavily with the floor of the Palace of Compassion and Peace, and there was a loud bang, which was extremely painful to hear.

The Empress Dowager looked at her in bewilderment, and vaguely felt that this woman was willing to go all out?If not, how could he do such a great gift to himself?She sighed, "What do you want to talk about with Ai's family?"

Liao Xue slowly raised her waist, knelt on the ground and looked up at the queen mother, her eyes were filled with mist, her whole body exuded a delicate and charming smell, but she seemed to have made a great decision at this time , Yin revealed decisively, "Queen Dowager, my concubine asks the Queen Mother to persuade the emperor to release the regent."

"What?" The Empress Dowager's heart trembled suddenly, she accidentally knocked over the teacup in her hand, looked at Liao Xue who spoke in astonishment, released the regent?impossible!Impossible!Put white ink, it is not easy to let the tiger go back to the mountain.

Liao Xue didn't seem to notice the anger from the woman in front of her, and said as usual: "The border is unstable now, and the imperial city has been surrounded by four armies. In a few days, maybe they will come to kill you, Queen Mother Now, only the regent can calm down the soldiers and appease their anger, only by releasing the regent can Dong Yao and the emperor be rescued."

The queen mother sat on the soft couch in a daze, as if thinking about the truth of her words.

In fact, the queen mother knows better than anyone else that releasing the regent can indeed quell the fighting, but the queen mother is unwilling to let go of Bai Mo, who has been dismounted after so much difficulty!

Seeing the empress dowager's expression of hesitation, Liao Xue was overjoyed. Knowing this, there must be something to be done, and hurriedly said: "Queen dowager, think about it, if the city is broken, what's the use of guarding an empty seat? The emperor's young hero, but Now that you are still young, there will be no major incidents, as long as you give the emperor some more time, the world will surely be settled! Worship from all directions."

The Empress Dowager's eyes trembled slightly, and was moved by Liao Xue's words, "Do you think the Emperor is compared with the Regent..."

"Of course the emperor," Liao Xue gave the answer before the queen mother finished speaking, "The world belongs to the emperor, and the emperor is the emperor of the people of the world. He wants to lead the people of the world. Who can compare?"

She spoke sonorously and forcefully, so that the Queen Mother softened her expression and nodded her approval again and again.
