As soon as Chen Yuan went out, he almost bumped into Mo Xiao who was waiting outside. He couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Your Majesty, why haven't you left yet?"

Mo Xiao: "..."

Chen Yuan was used to his lawless behavior, and after a long time, Mo Xiao was too lazy to bother with her.

"How can I feel safe with you being alone with him like this?" Mo Xiao said unhappily, "Tuoba Xuan is not a weak scholar. He knows martial arts and his skills are pretty good."

Chen Yuan and Tuoba Xuan faced off. Under normal circumstances, Chen Yuan might not lose, but Chen Yuan was in a special situation now. Even though her life was not in danger, she was still afraid of any mishaps.

Lin Jiuqing repeatedly urged Mo Xiao in the letter to take good care of Chen Yuan, and Mo Xiao dared not disobey his instructions.

Chen Yuan said, "I just wanted him to paint for me. I didn't do anything. Why would he do that to me?"

Mo Xiao: "If he captures you and threatens me, do you think I should obey or not?"

Chen Yuan: "...Okay, okay, I got it."

Mo Xiao stopped talking and asked her, "Why did you want him to paint for you?"

Chen Yuan was silent for a moment, then said: "I just want my sister to see..."

She was so pregnant now, but the two most important people in her life didn't see it, so she thought of leaving some portraits and showing them when she returned triumphantly.

When Mo Xiao heard this, his eyes suddenly widened: "I think you still don't want it?"

Chen Yuan frowned: "Why?"

"Your sister is weak, I'm afraid she can't bear it." Mo Xiao said slowly.

Chen Yuan glanced at him and said, "Do you think I'm stupid? I didn't say I'd give the painting to my sister now. I'll show it to them after I return victorious."

Mo Xiao: "This is fine."

By then they will all be safe, and they will feel relieved when they look at this painting again.

Lu An, who was following behind the two men, heard their conversation and was moved. After hesitating for a long time, he asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, I also want Tuoba Xuan to paint for me."

Mo Xiao paused and looked back at him.

Lu An pulled the corners of his lips, his expression was a little forced, and his voice was a little lower: "I also want to show my family what I look like now."

Mo Xiao stared at him for a moment, then said, "Okay."

Lu An quickly said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Chen Yuan glanced at Lu An, said nothing more, and followed Mo Xiao to the camp. She knew Lu An, but she was a cold person. Apart from her family, she had nothing to do with other people.

Chen Yuan held her belly with one hand while talking to Mo Xiao: "I have led people to explore the terrain outside the Great Wall these days. Why did Your Majesty go to the trouble of asking Tuoba Xuan to draw it?"

"This is not a superfluous move," Mo Xiao explained patiently, "He is much more familiar with the terrain outside the Great Wall than you are, especially the closer to the royal court, the more familiar he is with it. On the contrary, we still don't have a clear understanding of the terrain near the royal court."

"He drew it. Can you believe it?"

"Of course I won't believe it all."

Once he gets the painting, he will naturally have plenty of ways to verify it.

Chen Yuan didn't say anything else. He just told Mo Xiao that he, his father and his brother were all ready and were just waiting for Mo Xiao's order.

At that time, whether this century of humiliation will end, or whether the chaos on the border will end and usher in a prosperous and peaceful era, will depend on this stop.

Mo Xiao reached out and patted her shoulder: "Take good care of yourself and the baby in your belly."
