A meal for both the guest and the host.

After Lin Qingqing finished her meal, she finally relaxed and focused on other things.

"When I came in, I saw you reading a letter, and you seemed very happy," Lin Qingqing stared at Lin Jiuqing and asked tentatively, "Who wrote the letter to you?"

Lin Jiuqing sighed in his heart and told the truth: "Your Majesty's letter."

Lin Qingqing: "..."

Lin Qingqing's eyes lit up and she looked at Lin Jiuqing with burning eyes.

Lin Jiuqing said: "I can't show you the letter."

Lin Qingqing's eyes dimmed a little, and finally she snorted and turned her head away: "I don't care about you."

Lin Jiuqing looked at her like this and sighed again in his heart.

Mo Xiao wrote a letter to himself, full of affection, and showed it to Lin Qingqing. Isn't that just rubbing salt into Lin Qingqing's wounds?

Lin Jiuqing was silent for a moment, but still said, "His Majesty reported in the letter that he was safe and sound, saying that the journey was smooth. He has Qiuyue to take care of him, and everything is going well. He asked me not to worry."

Lin Qingqing's eyes moved, and she turned back again, muttering softly: "That Qiuyue used to serve the Empress Dowager. Will she take care of Your Majesty?"

Lin Jiuqing smiled and said, "You don't know that Qiuyue has been taken care of by your majesty for a long time, but later when your majesty ascended the throne, he sent Qiuyue to the side of the queen mother. If there is anyone in this world who can take care of your majesty and make me feel at ease, that person must be Qiuyue."

Lin Qingqing looked at her for a while, then said: "Since you said so, then Qiuyue has some ability."

The two of them talked for a while, and suddenly a guard came in from outside and whispered, "Empress Chen, someone has come from the Empress Dowager's palace and wants you to come over."

Lin Jiuqing and Lin Qingqing looked at each other, and Lin Qingqing immediately stood up and said in a deep voice: "I'll go with you. I want to see how far those old men can go. Don't be afraid. If it doesn't work, I'll ask my father to help. My father loves me and will listen to me."

Lin Jiuqing reached out and touched her hand, and said softly, "Don't bother Lord Lin, and you don't have to come with me. I can go alone. It's okay, I can handle it."

"I can't let you go alone," Lin Qingqing pursed her lips, "His Majesty is gone, and I have the highest position in the harem. Although His Majesty has never said it, I feel that I have the responsibility and obligation to help him protect you."

Lin Jiuqing was speechless after hearing Lin Qingqing's words. He couldn't refuse, so he had to take Lin Qingqing to the Queen Mother's residence.

As soon as he arrived at the Queen Mother's courtyard, he was startled by the large group of people in the courtyard.

Lin Qingqing glanced at Lin Jiuqing with a bit of nervousness in her eyes: "So many people!"

Lin Jiuqing's expression did not change. He was still as calm as before, as if nothing had happened. He whispered to Lin Qingqing, "Don't be afraid. They won't do anything to you."

Lin Qingqing frowned and was about to say something, but Lin Jiuqing had already walked ahead and entered the yard.

Lin Qingqing had no choice but to shut her mouth, straighten her back, and follow.

When the royal relatives who were making trouble saw the two people come in, they all stopped talking and their eyes were fixed on the two women.

Lin Jiuqing ignored them and walked straight to the Queen Mother who was sitting at the top. He bowed in a low voice: "Greetings, Queen Mother."

Lin Qingqing on the side also hurriedly said: "Meet the Queen Mother."
