Lu Jiuqing looked at Mo Xiao, feeling a little speechless for a moment.

For the first time, she realized that this wise and mighty Emperor seemed a bit stupid.

Lu Jiuqing sighed and replied: "What difference does it make whether to move or not?"

Mo Xiao: "Huh?"

Lu Jiuqing lowered his eyes and glanced at the book in his hand, and said calmly: "Before, when you lived outside the palace, you climbed over the wall every night. Now that we are separated by a wall, you are honest? You are still injured, so don't bother with it."

After saying that, he concentrated on reading the book in his hand, indicating that the Q&A for today was over.

Mo Xiao stood there, his expression unclear whether he was happy or sad, in short, it was quite complicated.

He looked deeply at Lu Jiuqing, then his eyes fell on the book in Lu Jiuqing's hand, and he frowned: "Why are you looking at this?"

What Lu Jiuqing was holding in his hand was none other than a book of palace rules.

Lu Jiuqing didn't even raise his head, and said in a calm tone: "I used to have a hard time at home, and I only thought about how to survive every day, so I never learned the rules. Now that I have some free time, I have to learn a thing or two."

But Mo Xiao said: "You don't have to learn these."

With that said, he reached out to pick up the book in Lu Jiuqing's hand.

Lu Jiuqing held it down and looked up at Mo Xiao: "Are you very free?"

Mo Xiao: "..."

"I want to see it," Lu Jiuqing patted Mo Xiao's hand away, "The papers on the table haven't been approved yet. Mr. Mu will come to check your pulse later, so you have to speed up."

Mo Xiao: "..."

Mo Xiao looked at the back of his hand which had been patted red, and then at Lu Jiuqing. He always felt that this scene was extremely strange and something was wrong.

He stayed there for a moment, and Lu Jiuqing didn't even raise his head, so he went back to review the papers dejectedly.

The room was quiet for a while. Someone from outside came to report that Mr. Zhou Chen was here. Mo Xiao raised his hand to let Zhou Chen in.

Zhou Chen hasn't come to see Mo Xiao for some time. If nothing else, he is avoiding suspicion.

A few days ago, something big happened to the Zhou family. Mrs. Zhou suddenly went crazy for some reason and died suddenly at home. The Zhou family and his son did not even give her a decent funeral, but dragged her to a mass grave and buried her hastily. Afterwards, the door of the Zhou family and his son was closed tightly. They had not been out for a long time, and they did not know whether they were alive or dead.

In addition, Concubine Shun in the palace somehow angered His Majesty and was placed under house arrest by His Majesty. Although the confinement was later lifted, His Majesty has never seen her again.

Zhou Chen has a biological relationship with the Zhou family. As soon as this incident came out, he disappeared and no one could find him. What's more, when Zhou Chen entered the Yinghua Palace to meet Lu Jiuqing that day, he knew a little bit about the inside story, so he ran faster.

Now that the limelight has passed, Zhou Chen is back again.

When he entered the hall, he saw Lu Jiuqing at the first sight. The words he wanted to say got stuck in his throat, and his voice suddenly disappeared.

Mo Xiao glanced at him and frowned: "Are you mute?"

Zhou Chen took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I have something important to report. This..."

Forget about His Highness being here, this is very likely to be the future crown prince. But what does it mean for Lu Jiuqing to be a woman? Even if she is a queen, she cannot be involved in the affairs of the previous dynasty.

Mo Xiao's eyes turned cold: "What, is there something wrong?"

Chen Zhou:"……"

"Zhou Chen, you haven't grown your memory yet and have forgotten what I once told you."

Mo Xiao's words suddenly made Zhou Chen's mind clear.

When he was still in the Ninth Prince's Mansion, Mo Xiao once warned him about his attitude towards Lu Jiuqing.

Over time, Zhou Chen forgot, or he had too many etiquette and dogmas, making it difficult for him to change.
