As soon as Lin Qingqing left, a burst of laughter broke out in the yard.

Mo Xiao pointed in the direction of the door and asked Lin Jiuqing with a smile: "Qingqing, did you see her expression just now? Hahaha..."

Lin Jiuqing: "..."

"Your Majesty, you're going too far." Lin Jiuqing said helplessly, "She hasn't made any mistakes yet, why are you torturing her like this?"

Mo Xiao snorted: "Isn't she deeply in love with me? I want to see how long she can hold on."

Then, he pulled Lin Jiuqing to sit on his lap and said with a smile: "Let's see whether she is truly affectionate or just pretending to be."

Lin Jiuqing: "Your Majesty, you..."

"Qingqing, why are you speaking for your love rival?" Mo Xiao lowered his head and kissed Lin Jiuqing on the corner of his lips. "She covets me, and it would be fine if you didn't get angry with her and fight with her, but you are still protecting her?"

"Do you still have me in your heart?"

Lin Jiuqing was speechless after being questioned by Mo Xiao. After looking at him for a long while, he said, "Everyone says you are a tyrant, but why do I think you are more like a rogue?"

Mo Xiao burst into laughter, lowered his head and placed his chin on her shoulder, and whispered, "I am only a rogue in front of you."

A smile also appeared in Lin Jiuqing's eyes.

This is the happiness she has always wanted.

No matter what her husband's status was outside, when he returned home he was just her husband and the father of her children.

The three of them trust each other, support each other, and live in peace and health.

This is her greatest wish.

Lin Qingqing returned with the food box and threw the cake to Lian'er as soon as she entered the door: "Eat it."

Lian'er: "... Madam, there are so many, I can't finish them all."

"I don't care," Lin Qingqing said unhappily, "I don't want to eat this anymore, not even a bite."

Lian'er reached out to take the cake and opened the lid. The cake inside was indeed as His Majesty said, still steaming. But when the steam dissipated, the air seemed to be filled with a sour smell.

These days, everyone in the palace eats this cake every day, and everyone frowns when they smell the sour taste.

Lian'er felt the same way. She felt a sour feeling in her stomach when she smelled the smell.

She pursed her lips, glanced at Lin Qingqing, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, after all, His Majesty personally ordered someone to make it for you, are you really not going to eat it at all? Otherwise, try it?"

Lin Qingqing said coldly: "Even if His Majesty feeds me personally, I won't eat a bite."

She couldn't stand the smell.

The previous two times were already her limit, and she absolutely could not tolerate the third time.

Lian'er: "...but this is a token of your majesty's kindness."

"What affection? I think he is deliberately making trouble for me." Lin Qingqing said unhappily, "Didn't you see how he gets along with Concubine Chen? His affection is all on Concubine Chen."

Before today, Lin Qingqing had never seen Mo Xiao and Lin Jiuqing get along with each other.

Today was the first time she saw Mo Xiao and Lin Jiuqing interacting privately.

From the moment Mo Xiao entered the room, Lin Qingqing saw that Mo Xiao was different. He casually walked to Lin Jiuqing and sat down, then picked up Lin Jiuqing's teacup very naturally... The whole set of actions was extremely natural, as if he had done it thousands of times, and the people serving around him were not surprised at all, as if they were used to it.

Lin Qingqing knew that this was how they usually behaved.
