Lu Zian stared at Lu Jiuqing dumbfounded. After a while, he lowered his voice and said, "Forget it, forget what?"

He walked to Lu Jiuqing's side in a few steps and kept looking at the wonton stall outside: "You mean... people from the palace?"

Lu Jiuqing looked at him helplessly: "Do you really want him to find out that we know his existence?"

Lu Zian was startled and looked away instantly.

He was a little stiff, so he simply sat down next to Lu Jiuqing, with his back to the outside, so that no one outside could see his expression.

"What's going on?" Lu Zian lowered his voice and asked in a deep voice, "Why are the people in the palace here?"

Lu Jiuqing's eyes were heavy: "How did you appear here?"

Lu Zian: "Of course I am looking for you..."

Lu Zian paused: "Are those people coming for you? Whose people are they?"

Lu Jiuqing pursed her lips and shook her head gently.

There were three groups of people looking for her, the emperor, the Lu family... and Mo Xiao.

These people outside are definitely not from the Lu family, otherwise Lu Zian would not be clueless at all.

The only ones left are the emperor and Mo Xiao.

Lu Jiuqing was not sure whether these people were from the emperor or Mo Xiao.

The emperor was nice to her, but his attitude was very strange. She always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't figure out the reason.

Mo Xiao... Lu Jiuqing tightened her fingers. She was not sure if Mo Xiao still wanted the child in her belly to die.

Lu Zian was a little flustered and grabbed Lu Jiuqing's hand: "Sixth sister, let's get out of here."

Lu Jiuqing smiled bitterly: "How to go?"

She thought about it when she was keenly aware that something was wrong, but she couldn't leave at all.

"Nowadays, this town is surrounded by people. Some of them you can see, like that wonton stall, and some of them you can't see at all. You don't know where they are hiding or how many people there are."

Lu Jiuqing looked at Lu Zian and said softly: "With just the two of us, we can't leave at all. What's more, with me like this, where can I go?"

Lu Zian: "Then just sit back and wait for death?"

Lu Jiuqing said softly: "Don't panic, I can feel that they have no ill intentions towards me."

At least not yet.

If they really had any ill intentions towards her and wanted to kill or cut her into pieces, they would have no power to fight back. They could just come directly and there would be no need to wait so long.

Even though Lu Jiuqing said this, Lu Zian still felt uneasy.

After this day, Lu Zian was always nervous and refused to let Lu Jiuqing go out. He followed Lu Jiuqing like a follower at home.

Liu's mother came back from shopping for groceries. As soon as she entered the door, she put down her things and went straight to the two of them. As she walked, she said, "Something big has happened."

Lu Jiuqing and Lu Zian turned to look at her at the same time, their hearts hanging for a moment.

Lu Zian swallowed nervously: "Mama Liu, what happened?"

"Oh, it's a different day." Liu Ma sighed, "Things in this world are unpredictable. Who would have thought that so many things would happen in such a short period of time."

Lu Zian was about to die and said feebly: "What happened, Ma Liu, can you tell me directly?"

Liu Ma slapped her thigh and said loudly: "Who is that? The Ninth Prince who was named Crown Prince some time ago has now become the Emperor!"

"From prince to prince, from prince to emperor, it only takes less than a year."

Lu Zian: "..."

He took a breath of shock, and then subconsciously turned his head to look at Lu Jiuqing beside him.
