Lu Jiuqing stayed in front of Mo Xiao's bed, staring at Mo Xiao's face.

She had looked at Mo Xiao like this many nights, but she had never felt as complicated as now.

I don't know how long it took, Lu Jiuqing looked at Mo Xiao and said softly: "Is it worth it for me? Today, if the strength of that man's hand had been a little stronger, and the wound had been a little deeper... you would have died."

Can you really risk your life for yourself?

Lu Jiuqing had lived two lifetimes, and no one had ever treated her like this.

Mo Xiao is the emperor, the man who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and has been aloof since he was a child. Let such a person be humbled to the point of dust, and even almost pay the price with his life... Lu Jiuqing, are you worthy?

Lu Jiuqing held Mo Xiao's hand tightly and murmured: "Can I trust you for once?"

Can she trust someone who would risk his life for her?

I believe that he will not become the second Tang Xiuyan, and I believe that he is my beloved.

Lu Jiuqing couldn't hear the answer, there was only the sound of his own breathing in his ears.

At this time, the eunuch's voice came from the door, saying softly: "Girl, there is someone outside Yinghua Palace asking to see you."

Lu Jiuqing frowned and said in a deep voice: "Just say that His Majesty is busy and ask them to come back another day."

The little eunuch bowed his head and retreated. After a while, the man came in again, his face not very good-looking.

"Girl, that man refused to leave. He said that the matter at hand was extremely urgent and he must see His Majesty."

While the little eunuch was talking, he couldn't help but look at Lu Jiuqing's face.

Usually at this time, His Majesty meets with ministers, and he never slacks off for a day. Therefore, these ministers are also used to coming to see His Majesty at this time. His Majesty's uncharacteristic absence today really left those people a little confused.

Lu Jiuqing frowned. Is Mo Xiao like this on weekdays? Even if you don't want to meet, you still have to be forced to meet?

Being an emperor is not easy.

Lu Jiuqing's face darkened and he said coldly: "What, does he want to resist the order and be disrespectful?"

The little eunuch was so excited that all the hairs on his body stood up. For a moment, he felt that the girl at this moment looked very much like His Majesty.

He quickly retreated and conveyed Lu Jiuqing's words. When the man heard this, his expression suddenly changed, and he no longer dared to pester him, so he turned around and left.

Mo Xiao's reputation as a tyrant became useful at this time. Those who were difficult to deal with, once they heard that Mo Xiao was angry, they no longer dared to deal with him and turned around and left.

Lu Jiuqing breathed a sigh of relief and just stood in front of Mo Xiao, waiting for Mo Xiao to wake up.

This time, it was time to turn on the lamp at night, but Mo Xiao still showed no sign of waking up.

Lu Jiuqing didn't wait for Mo Xiao, but waited for someone else. The little eunuch said that Zhou Chen was outside asking for an audience.

Lu Jiuqing could dismiss the others at will, but Zhou Chen could not.

Everyone knows that Zhou Chen is Mo Xiao's confidant, and he will never miss Mo Xiao at any time. Lu Jiuqing also dismissed Zhou Chen. Not to mention Zhou Chen, others would be suspicious.

Lu Jiuqing was silent for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Go and invite Mr. Zhou to come in."

The little eunuch was stunned for a moment, then he didn't dare to say anything and turned around to invite Zhou Chen.

In the absence of His Majesty, Lu Jiuqing is now in charge of the Yinghua Palace.

After a while, Zhou Chen came in with the little eunuch, but he didn't see the emperor. When he looked up, he saw Lu Jiuqing sitting on it.

"You, how...you..."

Zhou Chen's eyes widened and he was too shocked to speak.
