After Mo Chengning's birthday, Mo Xiao and Mo Chengning suddenly became busy.
The border was not peaceful, and reports were being sent to the capital one after another. Mo Xiao had been staying in Yinghua Palace for several days.
In addition to the border issues, the envoys who had been dealing with Zhou Chen for a long time gradually became impatient and started to cause trouble.
There was also the Ministry of Revenue. Minister Lin had settled his family there this time and had not been home for a month. He sorted out the account books and calculated the accounts every day, taking out all the silver he could and giving it all to Mo Xiao. With the silver in his hands, Mo Xiao became more active, so active that the common people in the capital noticed something unusual.
Mo Xiao and Mo Chengning were too busy to go home, so Lin Jiuqing didn't dare to disturb them too much. She just watched the kitchen prepare three meals a day and then personally delivered them to Yinghua Hall. After watching the father and son eat, she didn't stay for long and left with her people.
There was no other way. The father and son were so busy that they forgot to eat. The people around them didn't dare to remind them, let alone persuade them, so they had to let Lin Jiuqing take action.
For many days, Lin Jiuqing ran between Yinghua Palace and Lanyin Palace.
Fortunately, Yinghua Palace and Lanyin Palace are not far away, so Lin Jiuqing does not have to walk too far.
That day, when Lin Jiuqing came out of Yinghua Palace, he saw the scorching sun outside, like a big steamer, and the heat from the ground was rising straight up.
The weather is getting hotter and it's becoming more and more unbearable to stay outside.
Yingyue knew that Lin Jiuqing was weak and might suffer from heatstroke if exposed to the scorching sun, so she whispered, "Madam, why don't we take another route?"
Lin Jiuqing was stunned: "Where are you going?"
"Go around the front yard," Yingyue said softly, "The yard is shaded by green trees, it's cooler, and you can avoid being burned by the scorching sun."
Lin Jiuqing looked up, frowned, and said to Yingyue: "Okay, let's do as you say."
The group changed direction and did not take the usual route, but instead took a secluded path.
There are not many people walking on this path on weekdays, and there are also few people going to that yard, but it is cool there.
After walking a little further and entering the courtyard, Lin Jiuqing heard someone talking in front of him when he was halfway there. When he got closer, he saw a group of people confronting the patrolling imperial guards. One of the people was not dressed like someone from the imperial court, but was obviously a foreigner.
Lin Jiuqing paused and looked at Yingyue beside him.
Yingyue glanced over there and said softly to Lin Jiuqing: "It looks like it should be those envoys."
Lin Jiuqing looked around and saw no path, so he could not go around, so he thought he might as well go back the way he came. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he heard a quarrel over there. The foreign officials were arguing in unskilled language, "Why don't you let us pass?"
The imperial guard said in a deep voice: "The front is close to Yinghua Palace. No one can go there without the emperor's order."
The foreign officials seemed to not understand: "This is not Yinghua Palace, why can't we go? We are honored guests of the court, not your prisoners. Get out of the way, we want to pass."
"Besides, if we can't go there, then why can that woman over there go there?"
From what he said, it seemed as if the imperial court was targeting them.
Lin Jiuqing was about to leave, but when he heard that this actually applied to him, he stopped and turned around to walk away.
Seeing Lin Jiuqing approaching, the imperial guards also looked over.
Yingyue said in a deep voice: "This is the Concubine Chen of Lanyin Palace."
