Lu Jiuqing returned to the house, feeling anxious that something was going to happen.

She was tossing and turning at night, thinking of various possibilities in her mind. No matter which one she was, she felt a little bit ominous.

I was still asleep in the middle of the night, and when I got up to take a drink of water, I suddenly heard a soft sound coming from the yard next to me.

She was stunned and instantly alert.

Next to it is Chen Yuan's yard. Now that Chen Yuan is in the General's Mansion, who is it that makes the sound of opening the door next door?

Lu Jiuqing opened the door, cautiously stuck his head out and looked to the side, and then stared dumbfounded at a familiar figure, who was about to walk in the door.

"A Yuan?"

A row of question marks popped up on Lu Jiuqing's head, and he asked in shock: "Why are you here?"

Shouldn't Chen Yuan be in the general's mansion?

Chen Yuan stiffened and looked back at Lu Jiuqing: "Did I wake you up?"

"Don't worry about this for now. Tell me, why are you here?"

Lu Jiuqing was a little nervous: "Did the general and his wife treat you badly? They..."

"No," Chen Yuan said calmly, "I just can't sleep, so I'm going to bed."

Lu Jiuqing: "..."

She was a little stunned.

In the past, Chen Yuan could lie down with his eyes closed in the wilderness, but now he can't sleep?

But looking at Chen Yuan's face, Lu Jiuqing sighed and waved to Chen Yuan: "Come here, let's sleep together."

Chen Yuan's eyes lit up and he hurried over here.

When the two of them were lying on the bed, Chen Yuan asked her, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"

Speaking of this, Lu Jiuqing's face fell.

She told her what Lu Zian had told her, and then said worriedly: "What do you think His Majesty wants to see me for? Could it be that he really found out that I have some relationship with His Highness the Ninth Prince?"

"When the time comes, will I still be able to walk out of the palace alive?"

Chen Yuan's brows furrowed, his expression unusually serious.

"Go find the Ninth Prince," Chen Yuan said with a deep tone, "He was the one who caused this matter, and he should take care of it."

Lu Jiuqing remained silent.

She never thought about looking for Mo Xiao.

This incident was indeed a robbery by Mo Xiao at the beginning, but if Tang Xiuyan had not been so shameless and took the initiative to send the person, the matter would not have developed into what it is today. Ultimately, both sides are wrong.

What's more, she didn't know how to face Mo Xiao in this situation.

Seeing her hesitation, Chen Yuan felt a little resentful: "It's now like this, and you still think about him? If the emperor is really causing trouble for you because of this matter, then he is the culprit of your harm."

Lu Jiuqing pursed his lips, and then said: "It should be...not so unlucky, right?"

Besides, it would be of no benefit to Mo Xiao if this matter broke out. Even if His Majesty really knew about it, he would probably not make it public. At most... he would kill her without anyone noticing.

Seeing her like this, Chen Yuan hesitated for a moment, and then said: "On Lantern Festival, I will accompany you to the palace."

Lu Jiuqing looked at her in surprise: "How will you accompany me?"

Chen Yuan turned away and said calmly: "General Chen and his wife are going to the palace for a banquet that day, so I will ask them to take me with them."

Lu Jiuqing looked at Chen Yuan intently, then couldn't help but move to Chen Yuan's side, stretched out his arms to hug Chen Yuan, and said softly: "A Yuan is indeed the person who loves me most in the world."

Even though she was not familiar with General Chen and his wife, and would rather run back to sleep than stay in the general's mansion, she was still willing to bow to General Chen and his wife for her sake.
