Lu An is no longer a young boy who is ignorant of the ways of the world. He grew up in the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery and has seen many shady and intriguing things.

The relative who died was very famous.

Now that Mo Xiao is not in the capital, although Mo Chengning is the prince, he is still young, and their relationship is kept completely secret. A concubine without any backing and a young prince, no matter which one, they are the target of bullying.

Those royal relatives and the Censorate would probably be able to eat Lin Jiuqing alive with just their mouths.

They dared to press the prince so hard, so they naturally looked down on a concubine in the harem with no background.

Lu An pursed his lips, looked up at Mo Xiao, and said, "Your Majesty, is Concubine Chen safe in the palace? Why don't I go back..."

Although he said that he would never return to the capital in this life, Lin Jiuqing was in danger now, and he could not stay here and pretend that he knew nothing.

Lin Jiuqing is his only relative in this world.

Mo Xiao snorted coldly and said to Lu An, "Who would be moved by my people?"

"If those royal family members and the Censorate dare to touch Concubine Chen, I will let them all die."

After Mo Xiao finished speaking, he glanced at Lu An and said, "You've been at the border for so long, why are you still so impetuous? You get flustered over the smallest things. How can you achieve great things in the future?"

Lu An: "I..."

He opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. He just lowered his head silently, the worry in his eyes not diminishing at all.

"Don't worry," Mo Xiao snorted and said calmly, "I will naturally arrange for someone to protect my people and will not let anyone hurt her in the slightest."

When Lu An heard this, his heart finally settled down.

Since Mo Xiao said so, it means he really arranged someone to protect Lin Jiuqing's safety. This way he felt a little more relieved.

Mo Xiao took the letter in his hand and read it again from beginning to end, then laughed again, and said with a little pride: "Just wait and see, they will know that the Empress Chen is not a soft persimmon that can be easily manipulated by others. She is not easy to bully at all."

What's more, those people were targeting Mo Chengning.

Mo Chengning was born at the cost of Lin Jiuqing's life. Those people will see how much she cares about Mo Chengning.

Mo Xiao put the letter away and looked at Qiuyue beside him: "Write a letter to the Queen Mother, asking her to take a good rest and not to worry about meaningless things."

His words were a disguised way of asking Qiuyue to tell the Queen Mother not to interfere in the affairs between Lin Jiuqing and the clan members.

Qiuyue nodded, got up and went out.

Mo Xiao took the letter, not knowing whether there was any treasure inside. He read it over and over again several times, and he was probably sure he had memorized the contents of the letter.

Lu An didn't say much, just pretended that he saw nothing and silently protected Mo Xiao's safety.

Here, the two thought that Lin Jiuqing had only killed that one royal relative, and were still worried about her, fearing that she wouldn't be able to cope with it. But they didn't know that Lin Jiuqing had killed more than one person, and the letter about her killing the second relative was on the way and would be delivered soon.

Mo Xiao had read the letter enough and could even memorize all the contents. He reluctantly put it away and looked up at Lu An: "What's going on with Tuoba Xuan?"

Lu An: "At first I wanted freedom, but after being rejected I didn't say anything and just stayed here obediently."
