If Lin Jiuqing had said this in the past, Zhou Chen would never have believed it, but now, Zhou Chen didn't dare to have any doubt at all.

This ancestor would kill those relatives without blinking an eye just because they had some criticisms about her son. If she caused the person she loved to be hurt, she would probably cut herself into pieces.

However, Zhou Chen did not dare to hide such a big thing from the emperor.

Mo Xiao is not someone you can easily mess with, and his methods of killing are even more brutal than Lin Jiuqing's.

No one wants to mess with this couple.

He stammered for a long time, and finally begged for mercy: "Empress Chen, please be magnanimous and spare my life."

"I am His Majesty's man, I receive His Majesty's salary, so naturally I must be loyal to His Majesty. If I conceal such an important matter from His Majesty, I am afraid that my life will be lost if His Majesty finds out one day!"

He looked at Mo Chengning who was standing aside and said, "Your Highness, please speak up for me."

Mo Chengning rolled his eyes and turned his head away, pretending he didn't hear anything. When I needed someone to make a decision just now, you, Zhou Chen, played dumb the whole time.

The corner of Zhou Chen's mouth twitched. He didn't expect that this little prince would hold such a grudge.

Lin Jiuqing looked at Zhou Chen and said, "Master Zhou, don't worry. I will go and speak for you on behalf of His Majesty."

"When the time comes, I will tell His Majesty that I threatened you with death in order to keep your mouth shut. His Majesty will certainly not vent his anger on you."

Zhou Chen: "This..."

"This matter has been decided," Lin Jiuqing looked at Zhou Chen deeply and said meaningfully, "After all, you also hope that everything goes well, right?"

Zhou Chen felt a little embarrassed when he heard Lin Jiuqing's meaningful words.

Lin Jiuqing saw it.

Deep down in his heart, he didn't agree to tell Mo Xiao about this. After all, considering the overall situation, he hoped that Mo Xiao could return victorious and not be affected by a woman in the harem. Another point... Your Majesty has few children, but he is unwilling to favor others. If Lin Jiuqing can give birth to a family for Your Majesty, it will be a good thing for the country and the people.

He is not Lin Jiuqing's closest relative, so naturally he would put other interests first when considering issues, rather than Lin Jiuqing's physical condition.

But he didn't expect that Lin Jiuqing saw through him clearly and didn't hide his inner thoughts at all.

Zhou Chen smiled dryly and said softly, "In that case... let's do as the Empress Chen says."

Lin Jiuqing nodded and continued, "Once this matter of the child leaves this palace, please keep it a secret, Lord Zhou, to avoid any trouble."

Zhou Chen nodded immediately: "I understand this, your Majesty, don't worry."

Once the news of Lin Jiuqing's pregnancy spreads, those ambitious people in the former dynasty and the harem will certainly take action. By then, it will be hard to guard against, and no one will be able to take responsibility if an accident occurs.

Lin Jiuqing got the answer he wanted, then looked at Mo Chengning beside him, a smile appeared on his face, and he coaxed softly: "Ningning, is this arrangement okay?"

Mo Chengning pursed his lips and finally sighed helplessly: "My mother has arranged everything, how can I say it's not good?"

Lin Jiuqing: "Of course you can say it's not good, you are my most beloved Ningning."

Mo Chengning: "...It's all fine, just listen to mother in everything."

After saying this, he looked at Doctor Chen who was still kneeling on the ground and said very seriously: "I am leaving my mother in your care. You must do your best to keep them safe."
