Zhou Chen stared at Lin Jiuqing for a while, his face gradually weakened, and he said softly: "Empress Chen, we... have some friendship. Can you please stop playing around for the sake of our past friendship?"

He is a minister of the royal family, how can he be killed just like that?

Lin Jiuqing glanced at him and said calmly, "Master Zhou, I'm not playing."

Zhou Chen looked at Lin Jiuqing steadily without saying anything.

Lin Jiuqing pursed his lips and finally said: "Ningning's life experience must not be criticized by others, not at all."

Mo Chengning is the crown prince and is more likely to be entrusted with important tasks in the future. If his background is always criticized by others, it will be a great hidden danger to his future path.

Besides, Mo Chengning is just a child. No matter how powerful he is, he will be sad when someone points at his nose and scolds him.

Lin Jiuqing did not accompany Mo Chengning when he was very young, letting him grow up alone with Mo Xiao, which was what Lin Jiuqing owed him. Because Lin Jiuqing did not know people well and had a brief relationship with Tang Xiuyan, she could not appear openly, which made Mo Chengning's life experience criticized to this day, which was also what she owed to Mo Chengning.

So, no matter what, Lin Jiuqing would not allow others to slander and bully Mo Chengning like this.

Lin Jiuqing looked at Zhou Chen and said very seriously, word by word: "I want to protect my child. Lord Zhou, please understand a mother's heart."

Zhou Chen was finally sure that Lin Jiuqing was serious.

He took a deep breath, turned around and walked out, wanting to stop them, but just as he walked out, he saw a guard walk in, kneel in front of Lin Jiuqing, and said in a deep voice: "Empress Chen, the person has been executed."

Zhou Chen's body swayed, his eyes dumbfounded.

Lin Jiuqing hummed calmly and said calmly, "Send the body back home respectably. I will say that considering that he has some blood relationship with Your Majesty and has worked hard and made great contributions in the court for many years, I will not pursue the charges of disobeying the order and insulting the crown prince, and will not bring disaster to his family."

The guard responded and turned to go out.

Zhou Chen, who was standing beside him, shuddered and asked Lin Jiuqing, "Does the queen still intend to investigate his family?"

Lin Jiuqing lowered his eyes and said calmly: "If his family members are stubborn and refuse to repent, then why can't I hold them accountable?"

Chen Zhou:"……"

Zhou Chen took a deep breath and said slowly: "Madam, aren't you afraid of being scolded for this?"

"What are you calling me?" Lin Jiuqing looked at Zhou Chen. "A disaster to the country and the people, a demon concubine, cruel and violent? For the sake of my child, I don't mind."

For Mo Chengning, she can be nothing but a human being.

Zhou Chen opened his mouth, but had nothing to say.

He sighed and slowly backed out.

Mo Xiao was not in the palace. Although he was the regent, he had no control over Lin Jiuqing.

The power that Mo Xiao gave to Lin Jiuqing was really too great.

Not only did he give Lin Jiuqing the freedom to enter and leave Yinghua Palace at will, he also gave Lin Jiuqing the right to command the secret guards, and even the command of the entire imperial guards was in Lin Jiuqing's hands.

Zhou Chen didn’t know what other tricks Mo Xiao had left for Lin Jiuqing.

This favorite concubine who had been hiding in Lan Yin Palace for a long time and never went out became the actual ruler of the palace after His Majesty left.

Zhou Chen left Yinghua Hall, and before he could stand still, the Minister of Revenue, Old Man Lin, rushed over and asked loudly, "What happened? Why is he gone?"
