After some time, Lin Jiuqing met Mo Chengan in Lanyin Palace.

It was not strange to see Mo Chengan, as he often came with the Crown Prince to pay respects, and often brought small gifts to Mo Chengqing. But it was a little strange that Mo Chengan did not look at Mo Chengqing after entering the Lanyin Palace, but stood beside her.

Lin Jiuqing put down the books in his hand, looked up at Mo Chengan who had been standing in front of him for a while, and asked, "Do you want to say something?"

Mo Cheng'an pursed his lips, and finally, as if he had given up, he knelt down with a plop, and looked at Lin Jiuqing with red eyes: "My queen, can my mother really not stay in the palace?"

Lin Jiuqing understood that this was Lin Qingqing's showdown with Mo Cheng'an, but he didn't know how to do it, leaving the child standing in front of him like this.

Lin Jiuqing sat up a little straighter: "What did your mother tell you?"

Mo Cheng'an lowered his eyes and said softly, "My mother said she was tired and didn't want to waste time on things that would lead to no results. She said she wanted to live for herself once, and live well for the people who loved her once."

Mo Cheng'an raised his eyes to look at Lin Jiuqing again and asked again: "My queen, can't my mother stay?"

Lin Jiuqing stared at Mo Chengan for a while, then said, "You ask me this because you think I can't tolerate your mother, and I want to drive her out of the palace, right?"

Mo Cheng'an pursed his lips and said nothing, which was considered as his agreement.

Lin Jiuqing was silent for a long time, and finally said: "It was me who couldn't let her get what she wanted. I would never give her what she wanted. But I didn't drive her out of the palace. It was her choice to go or stay."

Mo Chengan: "But..."

"Perhaps, you should calm down and talk to your mother calmly again." Lin Jiuqing interrupted Mo Cheng'an and said in a deep voice, "Whether you believe it or not, I did not drive her out of the palace. If she chooses to stay in the palace, I will not touch her unless she harms me."

Mo Chengan opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, Lin Jiuqing raised his hand and said, "Okay, no need to say more, get out."

Mo Chengan couldn't say what he wanted to say, so he stood up and prepared to go out. As soon as he reached the door, he saw Lin Qingqing rushing over. After seeing Mo Chengan, her face changed and she walked faster.

"Mother, why are you here?" Mo Cheng'an was a little surprised.

Lin Qingqing ignored Mo Chengan and turned to look at Lin Jiuqing: "I didn't explain it to him clearly, don't blame him."

Lin Jiuqing's expression was a little indifferent: "That's your business."

After a pause, he looked up at Lin Qingqing: "I don't owe you anything."

Lin Qingqing took a deep breath: "I understand."

Mo Cheng'an was still a little confused, and whispered: "Mother..."

"Come with me!" Lin Qingqing took Mo Chengan's hand and led him out.

After returning to her own bedroom, Lin Qingqing let go of Mo Chengan and asked in a deep voice, "What did you say to her?"

Mo Chengan pursed his lips and said nothing.

"I know it even if you don't tell me. Do you think I'm leaving because she can't tolerate me?"

"Isn't it?" Mo Cheng'an looked at Lin Qingqing, "Otherwise, why did you suddenly leave?"

Lin Qingqing raised her hand and rubbed her brows: "An An, I have made it very clear, it is my own fault, it is me..."

"You want to leave me alone in the palace?" Mo Cheng'an looked at Lin Qingqing with red eyes.

In fact, it’s not that he doesn’t trust Lin Jiuqing’s character, he just doesn’t want to believe that his mother is going to abandon him.
