"I want to return to Wolf City in person to escort the body of the Earl..." Tang Mo waved his hand, indicating to the officer who read the letter to throw away the letter: "If they really go south, it means they are giving us
An excuse for war."
"Really, this war will not end easily. I will personally lead the troops into Susas, capture their royal city, and strangle their king to death on the throne!" Tang Mo stood up and said sternly
: "Send a messenger to refine my meaning and bring the message to them."
"Yes!" A group of Beiling officers immediately stood up and saluted Tang Mo as if they were saluting the Earl.
Unknowingly, Tang Mo had become the backbone in their hearts, the uncompromising leader among them.
"Send invitations to the nobles in the territory and surrounding areas. In addition, send someone to deliver a message to the royal city and ask them to arrange for a suitable person to come and attend the funeral of Lord Fisherot."
"We have already done this, but have not received a response yet."
"Then hurry up and send another invitation in my name." Tang Mo said directly without thinking: "Give this letter to the Prime Minister and the other to Minister of Construction Baos, that's it."
"Yes, sir." A man who looked like a butler bent slightly, took a handwritten letter from Tang Mo, and then turned and left.
In mid-April of the 114th year of the Wright Kingdom, the body of Earl Fisherot, who had been dead for half a month, left the Ice Crystal City and was escorted by Tang Mo all the way back to Wolf City.
At almost the same moment, in the royal city of the Wright Kingdom, the prime minister of the kingdom was holding the letter sent by Tang Mo and thinking in his mind who should be sent to attend Fisherot's funeral.
There are actually many candidates, such as the good old guy Boss. But this time they can't let Boss go to Northridge to represent them, because Boss has another invitation letter.
Tang Mo hoped that Earl Fisherot's funeral would be organized in a dignified manner, so he directly wrote an invitation letter to Boss.
In this way, as the Minister of Construction and also Tang Mo's "good friend", Baos had no reason to refuse Tang Mo's invitation.
Therefore, the prime minister had to think of someone who could attend Fisherot's funeral without being abrupt or embarrassing.
There are many candidates, such as several generals of the kingdom, who actually have some small friendship with Fischereau.
Unfortunately, these generals have also been invited, so they cannot go to Beiling on behalf of the king to appease the somewhat irritable Tang Mo.
The candidate who was finally chosen turned out to be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Kingdom of Leyte, the eldest son of His Majesty the King.
As a result, a huge delegation set off from the Royal City and headed to Wolf City to commemorate Earl Fisherot.
This delegation includes 13 generals and senior military officers of the Kingdom, the Minister of Construction and the Minister of Education, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who represents the royal family.
At the same time, many officials from Bunas also went to Beiling, including a lot of representatives from the business community. Although these people were not nobles, they had another advantage, that is, they were rich.
Among them are the newly promoted cement kings, salt overlords, cloth giants, and coal mine shareholders from Bunas. They are here simply to give face to Tang Mo and to send money to Beiling.
The business community in Bunas alone donated 2,000 gold coins for the Earl's funeral, which is definitely not a small amount compared to the amount of money needed to pay for the funeral.
Tang Mo made them money, and in the foreseeable future, they will make more money! Because the orders Tang Mo gave them alone were enough for them to flourish.
Similarly, Tang Mo also contributed 3,000 gold coins for the Earl's funeral, which raised the Earl's funeral to a somewhat presumptuous level.
Even if King Wright had been a little poorer when he died, his funeral might not have been as grand as Fishereau's.
Tang Mo, who accompanied the Earl's coffin all the way back to Wolf City, immediately came to Alice's door. When he saw Alice's old housekeeper guarding there, he lowered his voice and asked, "How is it?"
"Miss is fine. She has been able to eat some food recently." The old housekeeper seemed to be very satisfied with Tang Mo's immediate concern for Alice. The smile on his face became more sincere and he replied: "However, she is still very weak.
.The Earl's matter is still heavy for her."
"I understand. You have done a good job. Thank you for everything you have done for the Luo Ning family!" Tang Mo nodded slightly, then walked to the door, glanced at the butler, and seemed to be asking if he could knock on the door.
.
The old housekeeper made a sign of please, and Tang Mo knocked on Alice's door. There was no sound from inside, so Tang Mo waited for a while and then gently knocked on the door twice.
Finally, the door was opened from the inside. Alice, who was wearing a black dress, lowered her head with a haggard expression, and made way for Tang Mo.
Tang Mo walked into the room and helped Alice close the door. The room suddenly became quiet, and neither of them spoke immediately.
Alice walked back to her bed and sat down dignifiedly, lowering her head and not looking at Tang Mo. Tang Mo stood there a little embarrassed, scratching his head and not knowing what to say.
Finally, Tang Mo decided that he should say something first, so he coughed and said: "On the northern border, Susas's troops have withdrawn. I think they will not have the guts to go south in a short time.
.”
"This is the best." Alice was not sad, her voice was light and a little ethereal, floating in the quiet room.
"Your father... Lord Earl, I have sent him back." Tang Mo continued: "I will arrange the funeral... I will also handle the follow-up matters properly, don't worry."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "I feel relieved to leave it to you." Alice still did not raise her head, her voice was pitiful, and Tang Mo couldn't help but want to reach out his hand, but he couldn't help it.
Halfway through the lift, he stopped again.
"This is the earl's relic." Tang Mo put down his arm, took out a ring from his pocket, pinched it on his fingertips, and handed it to Alice.
A man gave a woman a ring, which made Alice a little nervous. She didn't dare to look up, and she didn't pick up the ring on Tang Mo's fingertips.
There is a wolf emblem on this ring, which is Fischereau's token. Under normal circumstances, this seal will be stamped on the seal of the envelope to ensure the confidentiality of the letter.
In a sense, the person who owns this ring can command the army of Beiling and even sit on the throne of the Lord of Beiling.
Especially with Tang Mo's prestige in Beiling, he would directly replace Tao Zong with this ring, and almost no one in Beiling would question or object.
If there were still some people who were unwilling to surrender to Tang Mo before, after Tang Mo stabilized the situation in Beiling, the vast majority of people recognized the fact that Tang Mo was a qualified leader of Beiling.
Hundreds of students from Datang Military Academy were dispersed and returned to their respective armies, and they immediately took control of these armies.
Tang Mo, who controls the army, also in fact controls Beiling's economy. After fully realizing this, those who originally had their own ideas or were loyal to the Luo Ning family have almost accepted Tang Mo's taking over Beiling.
Ridge facts.
However, under such circumstances, Tang Mo actually handed the ring to Alice at this moment, as if he was handing over a proposal ring.
Tang Mo had no intention of occupying the Earl's property here, because he really didn't feel that the Beiling in front of him was worth abandoning his own beliefs and basic bottom line as a human being.
"Take it! This is what belongs to you." Tang Mo reminded Alice carefully after seeing that Alice had not moved for a long time.
"Ah!" Alice suddenly rushed towards Tang Mo, wrapped her arms around Tang Mo's waist, buried her head in Tang Mo's abdomen, and cried hoarsely.
With his head buried in clothes, Tang Mo could only hear Alice's low sobs. The girl hugged him and kept sobbing, and for a while the only sound left in the room was the sniffling sound.
Tang Mo raised his other hand slowly, and then paused when he was about to put it down. After a few seconds of pause, Tang Mo gently pressed his palm on Alice's head.
That beautiful hair is much smoother than it looks.
"It's okay! I'm here...it's okay..." Tang Mo comforted him with pity, but for a moment he didn't know how to persuade him.
The room just returned to silence again, except for Alice's cries, which were isolated by the cloth, heartbreaking and unscrupulous.
"I miss him so much!" Alice seemed to be releasing the pain that had been suppressed in her heart, wiping the hot tears on her face with Tang Mo's clothes while shouting at the top of her lungs.
At this moment, it seemed that she was no longer the strong woman in business, no longer the heir to the Luoning family, but just a simple little girl, an ordinary little girl who had lost her parents.
"I know. We all miss him." Tang Mo stroked Alice's hair and comforted softly: "But people can't live in grief. We all have to move forward, keep moving forward.
…”
"Why did God do this to me?" Alice raised her head, tears flowing freely on her face, making her look like an aggrieved tabby cat.
Tang Mo lowered his head lovingly and wiped away the tears on her face: "When you become stronger, we will go to God together to seek justice for us."
"Okay!" Alice sobbed, biting her lip and staring at Tang Mo.
Tang Mo looked at this beautiful and aggrieved face and was a little crazy for a moment.
The next second, to Tang Mo's surprise, Alice stood on tiptoes and suddenly came in front of Tang Mo, hugged Tang Mo's neck, and kissed Tang Mo's lips.
