At the gate of Lan Yin Palace, those ministers couldn't even get through the door of Lan Yin Palace, let alone see Mo Xiao.

These imperial guards were also determined. No matter how the ministers made a fuss, they would not give way even a step, and even refused to go in and pass on the message.

The ministers were at their wits' end, so they had to resort to their ultimate weapon. They knelt down at the entrance of Lan Yin Palace and shouted in unison: "Your Majesty, we have something to report!"

Their voices were loud and clear, and could be heard from far away.

The Royal Guards' faces turned dark.

His Majesty had ordered that the queen should take care of her pregnancy and no one was allowed to disturb her. But the people in front of him were not ordinary people, so they didn't force their way in. They just knelt there and howled. Even if they wanted to take action, they didn't have enough reasons.

I only hope that Your Majesty will not blame them when the time comes, and not implicate them.

Inside Lan Yin Palace.

Mo Xiao was having supper with Lin Jiuqing when he suddenly heard the minister's voice coming from outside. His face suddenly darkened.

Lin Jiuqing's hand holding the spoon also paused, and then he continued to drink the soup in his hand as if nothing had happened.

Mo Xiao's face was gloomy, and he said in a cold voice: "I have given them enough face, but I never thought that they would press on step by step and chase us here."

Lin Jiuqing wiped his mouth and said slowly: "They are not forcing you, they are forcing me."

Mo Xiao paused and looked at Lin Jiuqing in silence.

"In order to prove that I am not a demon concubine who brings disaster to the country and the people, and to show my virtue, I will definitely persuade Your Majesty to go out and meet them at this time."

Lin Jiuqing smiled and said, "This is what I should do."

Mo Xiao's face turned even darker.

He hated others scheming against him, and if the person scheming was Lin Jiuqing, he would be even more intolerable.

Mo Xiao stood up and said coldly, "Let them continue to quarrel here, and you won't have to rest."

Lin Jiuqing grabbed Mo Xiao who was about to leave and said softly, "This matter should have nothing to do with Lord Lin, Minister Lin. Don't implicate him on impulse. Lord Lin made a lot of efforts for you to lead the army in person this time."

No matter what, we must not let those who are doing things feel discouraged.

Mo Xiao hummed: "I understand."

After Mo Xiao left, Lin Jiuqing drank his tea by himself.

Yingyue came in from outside and said softly, "My Lady, you should rest."

Lin Jiuqing shook his head: "It's okay, no rush."

Yingyue wanted to persuade him again, but was stopped by Lin Jiuqing: "I slept enough during the day, and I'm really not sleepy now. What's more, it's so lively today, let me join in the fun."

Seeing that she was in good spirits, Yingyue couldn't persuade her and had to agree.

Seeing that she was bored drinking tea alone, he started chatting with her: "Madam, do you still remember Qiuyue?"

Lin Jiuqing's eyes moved: "Of course."

Yingyue came over and whispered, "Qiuyue wanted to see the queen and has come here many times."

Lin Jiuqing raised his eyebrows: "Why, do you think the reward is not generous enough?"

Lin Jiuqing sent Qiuyue to the battlefield and asked Qiuyue to take care of Mo Xiao, and she did a good job. After she came back, Lin Jiuqing gave her a very generous reward.

She didn't understand why Qiuyue had any reason to see her.

Yingyue muttered in a low voice: "She has always wanted to return to serve His Majesty, but His Majesty threw her to the Queen Mother. She may be unwilling to accept this and wants the Queen to help speak a few good words for her."

Lin Jiuqing was a little puzzled. Why did she put a woman who had feelings for Mo Xiao next to Mo Xiao?
