When they were approaching the city gate, Mo Chengning was sent back to the carriage by Chun Sheng.

Lu Jiuqing reached out to hold Mo Chengning over, took out a handkerchief to wipe Mo Chengning's face, and asked softly: "Is riding a horse fun?"

Mo Chengning nodded: "It's fun."

Lu Jiuqing smiled and touched Mo Chengning's face: "If you like it, go back and let Chunsheng play with you."

Mo Chengning nodded happily, then leaned out from Lu Jiuqing's side to look out the window. His eyes stayed on the towering city gate, and he did not forget to say to Lu Jiuqing: "Mother, don't you look outside?"

The smile on Lu Jiuqing's face faded a little: "Does it look good?"

"It's beautiful, there are so many people," Mo Chengning couldn't hide his excitement in his tone, "The city gate is so tall and big, people are coming and going, it looks very lively."

Lu Jiuqing hummed: "In the center of the world, at the feet of the emperor, nature is prosperous."

Mo Chengning asked again: "Mother, don't you take a look?"

Lu Jiuqing: "Look."

Mo Xiao sat aside and heard the conversation between mother and son clearly.

He felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. Lu Jiuqing really didn't care about the capital at all. He had been away for such a long time, and now that he was back, he didn't want to take a look.

Looking at Lu Jiuqing's expression, Mo Xiao suddenly became a little unsure as to whether it was right for him to forcefully bring Lu Jiuqing back.

Pursing his lips, Mo Xiao suddenly said: "Qingqing, are there any friends you want to see? You can ask them to play with you after you go back."

Lu Jiuqing lowered his eyes and said lightly: "I have no friends."

Mo Xiao: "..."

Isn’t Yang Yuheng from Fengyulou your friend? You were obviously very close before.

Taking a deep breath, Mo Xiao said softly: "What about Chen Yuan?"

Mo Xiao pursed his lips and said nothing. On the other hand, Mo Chengning retracted his head from the window and said with a smile: "Father, I haven't seen my aunt for a long time. Please tell her that I am back."

In Mo Chengning's life, apart from his father who took care of him when he was growing up, Chen Yuan, the aunt, was the only one who was closest to him.

His aunt would come to the palace whenever she had time, and would bring him many things that were not available in the palace. She would also play with him, which was very interesting.

Besides his father and mother, Mo Chengning liked his aunt the most.

Lu Jiuqing reached out and touched Mo Chengning's head, then looked up at Mo Xiao.

Mo Xiao smiled: "Okay, I'll have someone notify Chen Yuan that you can see her when you get back."

The carriage entered the city and slowed down, and the sounds of street vendors clearly reached Lu Jiuqing's ears. Although Lu Jiuqing didn't open the window to look, he was still in a trance.

This is the capital, the place where she has lived since she was a child. Although she feels that she no longer cares about her here, she can't calm down as soon as she sets foot here.

There is no other place in the world like Beijing, where you feel extremely familiar as soon as you step into it. Whether it was the sounds of street vendors or something else, even the air was familiar to her.

This may be what others call nostalgia.

After walking into the city for a while, the surrounding sounds gradually disappeared and slowly became quiet. Lu Jiuqing understood in his heart that he was probably entering the palace. After a while, the carriage finally stopped.

The door of the carriage was opened from the outside. Chun Sheng stood outside and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, we are here."

Mo Xiao hummed, stood up and got out. After jumping off the carriage, he turned around and stretched his hand towards the inside of the carriage, waiting for the people inside to come out.
