When Qiuyue heard Mo Xiao's words, a hint of bitterness flashed across her eyes, but she quickly returned to normal.

She lowered her head and placed the tea tray on the table next to Mo Xiao, and said softly: "The Empress Chen loves him so much, he will naturally side with the Empress Chen."

When talking about Lin Jiuqing, the usually indifferent Mo Xiao became more talkative: "She doesn't have many relatives. The more people in this world love her, the better."

Qiuyue smiled and didn't respond.

She turned around and started to get busy, cleaning all the furniture and then arranging the things she brought from the capital one by one.

Before long, the tent was completely renovated.

When Lu An came in again, he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the tent in front of him.

The desk was still the same desk, but it was now neatly laid out with pens, ink, paper, and an inkstone, as well as a tea tray. There was even an incense burner in the corner with incense burning in it, adding a bit of fragrance to this place filled with the stench of men's sweat.

From the corner of the bed exposed behind the screen, one can see that the sheets and quilts have been replaced with new ones, and the color of the quilt is obviously not cheap.

Lu An had been pampered since childhood and was a connoisseur of valuables. He knew that these things were probably brought out from the palace.

Lu An lowered his head and understood in his heart, after all, he was the emperor.

He walked in, head bowed, and said, “Your Majesty.”

Mo Xiao was sitting behind the desk, reading a parchment map. Hearing this, he looked up at him and asked, "Is Chen Yuan back?"

"The princess has returned, but..." Lu An looked up at Mo Xiao's face, then quickly said, "She said she was tired and wanted to rest first. If Your Majesty doesn't have anything particularly important, she will come to see Your Majesty tomorrow. If Your Majesty really has something important... please condescend to visit her."

As soon as Lu An finished speaking, he knelt down with a plop: "Your Majesty, please forgive me."

Mo Xiao held the parchment map for a long time before he sighed and murmured, "She is the only one in this world..."

Chen Yuan was the wolf cub that Lin Jiuqing picked up. She would bite anyone she caught, especially him. At first, he wanted to kill Chen Yuan, but Lin Jiuqing was determined to protect this adopted sister and raise her like a treasure.

Fortunately, although Chen Yuan was not very nice to him, she was very caring and devoted to Lin Jiuqing.

Lu An lowered his head, feeling a little uneasy, fearing that the rumored tyrant would attack Chen Yuan in anger. But after waiting for a while, he did not receive Mo Xiao's order to punish her, and just said, "Since she is tired, let it go."

Having said that, he put down the parchment scroll in his hand, stood up and walked out.

Lu An was stunned for a moment, then followed him: "Where are you going, Your Majesty?"

Mo Xiao said with a half-smile: "Let's go see our princess and express our condolences."

Lu An: “…”

Isn't it said that this person is a tyrant? Why does he seem to have a surprisingly good temper?

He rubbed his brows and thought of the dozens of people in the Lu family who had died, and those who had their property confiscated and their families exterminated... Well, this man was indeed a tyrant.

The reason why Mo Xiao is in such a good temper now... maybe it's because of Lin Jiuqing.

Because he was Lin Jiuqing's recognized younger brother, and because Chen Yuan was Lin Jiuqing's recognized younger sister, he was able to show his rare patience, treating them like family, being tolerant, good-tempered, and easy to talk to.
