Lu Jiuqing did not stay in Yinghua Palace for long, and brought Mo Chengning and Chen Yuan to her small room. The Yinghua Palace became quiet in an instant.

Mo Xiao sat behind the desk, holding a brochure in his hand, but he didn't write an note for a long time.

He finally couldn't help but look around. Ning Ning usually played on the carpet when he was reviewing the papers. Now the place where he usually stayed was empty, and even the toys were taken away.

Turning to the side again, the person standing next to her was not Qiuyue, but a slightly unfamiliar little eunuch.

Mo Xiao: "..."

Although Lu Jiuqing was obviously found, he seemed to be even more lonely.

He lowered his head to look at the booklet. The more he read the words on it, the more upset he became. Finally, he threw it on the table with a slap and cursed: "Everything is on the booklet. Why don't you use my time for free?"

After saying that, he turned around and threw the zipper to the ground, shouting loudly: "Don't pass this kind of zipper up again in the future."

The little eunuch next to him knelt on the ground in fear and picked up the folds. He said in a trembling voice: "Yes, yes, I will notify you right away."

After Mo Xiao finished cursing, he finally felt a little calmer.

He picked up another booklet and planned to read it, but before he started, there were hurried footsteps outside.

The little eunuch came in and knelt down: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is here."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Queen Mother walked in. She had a cold face and didn't seem to be in a good mood.

Mo Xiao raised his eyes, put down the fold in his hand, stood up, walked to the Queen Mother and stood next to her: "I have met the Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother glared at Mo Xiao: "Do you still have me as your mother in your eyes?"

Mo Xiao frowned: "Mother, why do you say this?"

After a pause, he added: "I just returned to the palace today, and I have a lot of things at hand. I haven't had time to pay my respects to my mother. I originally planned to visit my mother tomorrow, but I didn't want her to come now."

After that, he went to help the Queen Mother: "Mother, sit down and say."

The Queen Mother shook off Mo Xiao's hand and said in a deep voice, "There's no need to ask for your regards. I'm here to ask you something."

Mo Xiao's eyes flashed and he looked at the Queen Mother silently.

The Queen Mother said with a cold face: "What has Concubine Xian done wrong that you want to send her to the cold palace?"

Mo Xiao secretly thought: It is indeed because of this incident.

Mo Xiao's expression was indifferent: "She was showing off and shouting outside my palace gate without any rules. I sent her to the cold palace for the sake of my mother."

The Queen Mother was stunned: "How could she do such a thing? Is there some misunderstanding?"

Concubine Xian is her maternal niece. She has met her many times. The girl is beautiful and talented. She seems to have a good temper and she does not seem to be a noisy person.

Mo Xiao said calmly: "Mother, do you think I'm lying?"

Queen Mother: "That's not what I meant."

The Queen Mother was silent for a moment, and then said: "You haven't seen any of the two concubines and four concubines in the harem before you returned to the palace, so you directly threw the virtuous concubine into the cold palace. It is really inappropriate. What do you want other people to think?"

Mo Xiao's voice became colder: "I do things without anyone else's comment."

The Queen Mother was confused by him and did not answer the question.

Her son was known to have his own way of doing things when he was still a prince, and no one could control him. Now that he is the emperor, he can say the same thing without looking at anyone's face.

The Queen Mother took a deep breath and softened her tone a little: "Even though Concubine Xian did something inappropriate, this punishment is too severe. How about lowering her status and grounding her for another month?"
