The legitimate daughter is reborn and cannot escape after being provoked by the tyrant

Lin Jiuqing always smiled when she saw Mo Chengning in the past, but this was the first time she didn't smile.

Mo Chengning's heart skipped a beat and he realized something was wrong.

Lin Jiuqing raised his eyes and glanced at the people around him, and said lightly: "Everyone go down, I have something to say to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Lin Jiuqing's words were as effective as the emperor's in Yinghua Palace. As soon as she opened her mouth, the eunuchs and palace maids filed out, and the entire Yinghua Palace was suddenly empty.

Lin Jiuqing turned his head and looked at Yingyue beside him: "You go out too."

Yingyue glanced at Mo Chengning with some worry, but didn't dare to say anything and quietly retreated.

In the huge Yinghua Palace, only mother and son were left.

Mo Chengning's smile was about to fade away, and he pulled the corners of his mouth with some difficulty: "What are you doing, mother? You are so serious."

Lin Jiuqing didn't beat around the bush with Mo Chengning and went straight to the point: "Did something happen to your father?"

Mo Chengning felt like the sky had finally fallen.

"Where did mother hear that?" Mo Chengning tried to struggle, "Doesn't father write to you every day? How could he be in trouble?"

Lin Jiuqing looked at Mo Chengning steadily and said calmly, "You used the letter you wrote before to trick me. Do you think I can't see it?"

"And you, Ningning," Lin Jiuqing reached out and tapped the corner of Mo Chengning's eyes, "When you lie, you habitually look at the ground below your left foot."

Mo Chengning: "..."

Mo Chengning raised his hand and rubbed his eyes. He really didn't know that he would do such a small action when he was lying.

Also, what’s wrong with my father? He can’t even write a letter properly, and people can tell from that?

Mo Chengning took a deep breath, feeling somewhat frustrated, and lowered his head. He whispered, "Mother, can you please not ask about this matter? You are in a special situation now, so you should take care of yourself."

Lin Jiuqing said in a deep voice: "It would be fine if I didn't know, but now that I know, I can't just ignore it. Instead of letting me guess and causing me to toss and turn all day and feel uneasy, you might as well tell me the truth. This way, I will feel more at ease."

Mo Chengning was silent for a moment, and finally raised his head to look at Lin Jiuqing, and said softly: "Father's rest has been interrupted for a few days. So far, I don't know how the battle at the border is going, and whether the people are safe."

After Mo Chengning finished speaking, he reached out to grab Lin Jiuqing's hand and said quickly, "But don't worry, my father is such a capable person, he will definitely be fine. I think he was held up by the war and had no time to send news to the capital."

Although he had anticipated this before coming here, Lin Jiuqing still felt dizzy and his palms turned cold when he heard the result.

Mo Chengning was anxious: "Mom, calm down first, don't..."

"I know," Lin Jiuqing closed his eyes, held Mo Chengning's hand with his backhand, and said word by word, "I'm very calm, don't worry."

She lowered her eyes to look at Mo Chengning beside her, his eyes full of worry for her.

Her child is still so young, and he has to manage such a big country. His father's life and death are unknown, and he himself has no time to grieve, but has to comfort his mother instead.

Lin Jiuqing reached out and touched Mo Chengning's head, and said softly, "Don't be afraid."

She pulled Mo Chengning over and held him in her arms, saying softly, "Even if your father is not here, you still have me. I will never let anyone bully you."
