After the first fool

Chapter 253 Choosing a Peace Negotiation
Bai Mo pondered for a while, and kept pacing back and forth in the imperial study room. After a long time, he stopped and turned around, "According to the two of you, what should I do?"

"Your Majesty, you can write a letter to inform Lord Lanyu that you want Lantianci to be safe and sound, unless they cede the land and pay compensation." Bai Qingluo's calculations are clanging, and now Lantianci is in his hands. Because of his busy marriage recently, he has never had any Take care of these trivial matters at leisure, Lan Tianci's whereabouts are still a secret, Lan Yu's sudden deployment of troops, I'm afraid Xuanyuan Wushang's provocation is indispensable!
"We can negotiate peace with Lan Yu. The two sides sit down and discuss the exchange of protons." Mo Qing also agrees with Bai Qingluo. After all, they have the prince of Lan Yu Kingdom in their hands, so they are not afraid that Lan Yu will not submit.

"Peace talks?" Bai Mo frowned slightly, "What about Xuanyuan?"

Xuanyuan Wushang had always been thoughtful, but now that he voluntarily compensated the five cities, he might be suffocating. Once they negotiate peace with Lan Yu, what about Xuanyuan?
"Start the three-party peace talks. If the emperor is unwilling to start a war, we can make a peace treaty with the two countries. For decades, the three countries cannot provoke war at will and divide the world." Mo Qing suggested, now, Dongyao Guotai Minan, just now Terminating a battle is really not easy to continue to waste people and money. It would be best if the three countries can coexist peacefully. If not, it will not be too late to fight again when Dongyao takes a breath.

"Okay, I'll write a letter and send it to Lan Yu." Bai Mo immediately picked up his pen and wrote a letter of peace talks eloquently, telling the monarch of Lan Yu Kingdom that for the sake of the common people in the world, Dong Yao would like to start a three-party peace talk in the imperial city. Yu and Xuanyuan can come to Beijing some day to discuss all related matters. When the peace talks are over, Dongyao will send Lan Tianci back to his homeland unscathed.

Throwing away the writing brush, he immediately sent someone to send it to Lan Yu immediately. Just in case, Zhou Jie, the former second-rank military general, led an army of [-] troops and rushed to the border immediately to prevent Lan Yu from taking the opportunity to cause trouble at the border.

After several imperial decrees were issued, Bai Mo sat wearily on the dragon chair. The emperor was really beyond what ordinary people could do.

"Your Majesty, please take care of the dragon's body." Seeing his tired expression, Mo Qing couldn't help saying.

"I know it well." Bai Mo twitched the corners of his mouth, then looked at Bai Qingluo, "Uncle Emperor, if the three-party peace talks start, I'm afraid your wedding will have to be delayed."

Bai Qingluo's eyes trembled slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "There are priorities, this king understands."

It's just that at this time, Lan Yu Guoxiu asked to release Lan Tianci. Is this a coincidence?
Bai Qingluo didn't believe it!He always felt that it was the thief Xuanyuan Wushang who deliberately wanted to spoil his wedding, and thus leaked Lan Tianci's whereabouts.

That man has been eyeing his woman all the time.

Bai Qingluo's eyes turned cold, and Mo Qing moved a few steps quietly, keeping away from him, lest he be affected by his anger.

After dealing with the affairs of the two countries, Bai Qingluo left the imperial study room, his legs were windy, Mo Qing saw his indifferent back and suddenly called out loudly: "King Qing, please stay."

"What's the matter?" Bai Qingluo's face was stern, and he cast a sidelong glance at Mo Qing who was chasing up.

"Your marriage with Ran'er..."

"Why, the Prime Minister still wants to stop it?" Bai Qingluo snorted and said displeasedly.

Mo Qing smiled bitterly and said: "For this marriage, the lord did not hesitate to use nine soldiers to suppress the people of the imperial city, and the methods were vigorous and decisive. The old minister has nothing to say."

He never expected that Bai Qingluo would use such a method to stop the spread of rumors, sacrifice his reputation, and minimize the disturbance. Such boldness and cruel methods are worthy of being famous since childhood. God of war in the world?
Bai Qingluo nodded slightly, thinking that if the prime minister called him to stop, it couldn't be just to praise his skills, right?

Mo Qing sighed slightly, "My lord, please forgive my daughter for being unreasonable at the banquet that day, she is crazy now, no different from a fool, please stop blaming her."

It's not that Mo Qing is afraid of Bai Qingluo, but that in today's world, he has too much power. At the banquet that day, the news of Mo Qiuyu's disturbance has already spread throughout the government and the public. Now she is stupid all day long, how will she marry in the future? ah?Ordinary people, Mo Qing looked down on, and did not want his daughter to suffer with the common people, but who would dare to acquire a woman who offended Bai Qingluo?Could it be that he ran away far away, wishing to sever all ties with Mo Qiuyu.

In order to love his daughter, Mo Qing took the initiative to ask Bai Qingluo for reconciliation. As long as he doesn't pursue the matter anymore, after a while, he can find a decent official family and marry Mo Qiuyu. Guangzong Yaozu, at least, must ensure that she has no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life.

When Bai Qingluo heard this, his eyes suddenly turned cold, "Okay, this king will not pursue this matter any further."

He let go so easily?
Mo Qing raised his head in astonishment, prepared a stomach full of reasons and excuses, all of which were useless.

"This king is not for you," Bai Qingluo twitched the corners of his mouth, and a trace of tenderness flashed in his eyes, "This king is only for Mo Xiaoran, Mr. Prime Minister, don't forget that Mo Qiuyu is your daughter, The same goes for Mo Xiaoran, you can beg me to let go today for a Mo Qiuyu, when your other daughter was insulted by pointing at her nose, did you ever think about defending her?"

Mo Qing's heart trembled, and his expression changed a few times. He never thought that Bai Qingluo would fight for Mo Xiaoran.

It is true that he was unfair to Ran'er that day, but that was because of the situation at that time, with Bai Qingluo around, how could something happen to Ran'er?But Qiu Yu is different, she has always been proud and arrogant, if he did not show up that day, Qiu Yu's life might have to stay there.

Seeing the sudden change in his face, Bai Qingluo didn't say anything more. He lifted his robe, turned around and left. There were still a lot of trivial matters waiting for him to deal with in his house. He was not in such a good mood to solve the prime minister's knots.

Prime Minister's House.

Mo Xiaoran stood behind the desk, copying the copybook boringly. The door was wide open, and occasionally a breeze blew in from outside, making the door rattle.

"Miss," Qingfeng's figure suddenly flew into the room from outside.

Mo Xiaoran immediately threw away the brush and looked up at him.

"Master asked the servant to send a message." Qingfeng was extremely troubled, thinking that he, a dignified hermit guard, has now been reduced to the point of delivering a message for others. Who would believe it?
"Tell me." Mo Xiaoran's eyes lit up, she strode around the desk, and walked in front of him with burning eyes.

Qingfeng cleared his throat, and relayed Bai Qingluo's message to her.

"What does he mean is that the wedding date will be postponed until the end of the three-party peace talks?" Mo Xiaoran frowned slightly. Is it really just a coincidence that Lan Yuguo suddenly repaired the book to Bai Mo at this time?
"Yes, the master told the lady to wait quietly, stay in the boudoir, and wait for the master to come and marry the lady."

"Do I look like I want to marry him?" Mo Xiaoran couldn't help asking back, what does it mean to wait quietly?Could it be that she forced Bai Qingluo to marry him?The cheeks suddenly swelled into two balls, and Mo Xiaoran said angrily: "Go back and tell your master, this girl didn't scream and shout to marry him, he is busy slowly, when will he finish his work, and when will we talk about it again?" It's not too late for marriage."

Qingfeng had a hunch that if she told the master the exact words, she might be stripped of her skin.

"Also, tell him to be careful about everything," the anger turned into anger, but Mo Xiaoran still couldn't help worrying about Bai Qingluo. This time, it was indeed a bit weird. Lan Tianci's whereabouts were suddenly leaked, and Lan Yu acted so quickly to set up troops. No matter how you look at the frontier, it was premeditated, as if deliberately provoking Lan Yu and Dong Yao to fight. Who else could do such a thing, except Xuanyuan Wushang?
"Yes, the slave must tell the master every word." Qingfeng bowed and retreated. Dongyao's law clearly stipulates that the husband and wife are not allowed to meet before they get married. They ran back and forth between the two places to help them convey each other's words, but fortunately, the two of them didn't deliberately embarrass him, they were talking about serious things, if they added a few nasty words of love, Qingfeng would probably go on strike, right?

Blue Feather Country.

The fiftieth-year-old Lord of Lanyu Kingdom received Bai Mo's handwritten letter two days later. After thinking about it, he took out Xuanyuan Wushang's letter and looked at it. One was asking him to form an alliance to deal with Dongyao. After defeating Dongyao, Xuanyuan and Lanyu divided the world and stood upright.The other one is to start a tripartite peace talks and agree on a peace treaty, one for war and one for peace.

The monarch of Lanyu Kingdom couldn't make up his mind, so that night, he sent all the civil and military officials to gather in the imperial study to hear their opinions.

Now, the position of Lanyu Kingdom is almost controlling the situation of the Three Kingdoms. If it helps Xuanyuan attack Dongyao, the Three Kingdoms will inevitably have a war for several years. If he agrees to peace talks, Xuanyuan Wushang will be alone and helpless, and he can only bow his head and compromise.

The biggest reason why Bai Mo dared to write this letter of peace talks is that Lan Tianci is in their hands at this moment. The royal family of Lan Yu Kingdom has always had many heirs, but there are more women than men. In Lan Tianci's generation, although there are three princes, they are outstanding But he is the only one. It can be said that everyone in the Lanyu Kingdom has already regarded him as the future monarch!

After discussing for a whole night, on the second day, the monarch of Lanyu Kingdom personally ordered the first-rank civil servant to assist the prince to lead [-] elite soldiers to Dongyao to participate in the peace talks among the three countries.

After Xuanyuan Wushang received the news, he was so angry that he lost his temper in the bedroom. He never expected that Lanyu Kingdom would give up such a good opportunity for a gift from the blue sky. Seriously injured, how could Xuanyuan Wushang settle for second best and want to join hands with Lan Yuguo?
"Damn Lan Yu! Coward! Cowardly! You bastard!" Xuanyuan Wushang cursed, a trace of bloodthirsty coldness appeared in his eyes, "Come here, bring me the map."

When a topographical map of the Three Kingdoms was handed over to him, Xuanyuan Wushang pointed at a certain spot on the map, laughing so that demons danced wildly.

"You want peace talks, right? I'll have to see, if Lan Yu's people died tragically in Dongyao's country, what kind of peace talks are you going to have?" The sinister words lingered in the entire bedroom.

Xuanyuan Wushang immediately ordered [-] soldiers, disguised as forest bandits, to ambush the peace talks team from Lanyu Kingdom in a dense forest a hundred miles west of Dongyao Kingdom.

As long as the plan is successful, Lan Yu and Dong Yao's Liang Zi will never be unraveled!
At the same time, the General's House.

When Bai Qingluo came back from the palace, he recalled Sui Lang and Zhu Yue, who were preparing for the wedding ceremony, and ordered them to bring a thousand skilled hidden guards to sneak into Lan Yu immediately and inquire about the news. If Lan Yu is willing to negotiate peace, then They sent each other's peace talks team to Beijing along the way, to prevent Xuanyuan from causing trouble. If Lan Yu was not prepared for this, he would find an opportunity to kill the current monarch of Lan Yu Kingdom first. Taking advantage of the chaos in Lan Yu Kingdom, they have no leader, and they are bound to push their ideas to Lan Yu. On Tianci's body, by then, the value of the weight in his hands will inevitably rise.

The three countries are all acting in secret. The peace talks team from Lanyu Kingdom, led by their assistant princes with [-] elite soldiers, rushed to Dongyao, and the [-] soldiers sent by Xuanyuan Wushang were also heading towards Dongyao's western border. Straight forward, Sui Lang and Zhu Yue led a thousand hermit guards each, and marched towards Lanyu Kingdom from two routes, day and night.
