The legitimate daughter is reborn and cannot escape after being provoked by the tyrant

Mo Xiao said that with the intention of comforting Lu Jiuqing and not wanting her to be unhappy because of Chen Yuan's matter.

But after he finished speaking, Lu Jiuqing's expression did not improve.

Mo Xiao pondered Lu Jiuqing's face and asked tentatively: "What's wrong? Did she make trouble with you?"

"Is she messing around with you? Don't be angry, I'll deal with her."

Normally, he was tolerant of Chen Yuan for Lu Jiuqing's sake, but if Chen Yuan really made Lu Jiuqing unhappy, Mo Xiao had many ways to deal with Chen Yuan severely.

Lu Jiuqing shook his head quickly and said softly: "No, don't think too much about it."

"I just..." Lu Jiuqing changed the subject and looked at Mo Xiao, "The court is actually in short supply of generals, right? It's a good thing for you that A Yuan goes to the border, right?"

Mo Xiao paused, then laughed: "She's just a girl..."

"Tell the truth." Lu Jiuqing interrupted Mo Xiao and looked at him seriously.

Mo Xiao and Lu Jiuqing looked at each other for a moment, and then continued what he said: "Although she is a girl, she does have some talent in the military. She has also made great achievements in the military in recent years. The military generals in the court are withering. At this critical juncture, Chen Yuan is one of the few people who can use it."

Lu Jiuqing immediately asked: "Then why don't you let her go?"

Mo Xiao asked back: "Are you safe to let her go?"

Lu Jiuqing: "..."

Mo Xiao smiled, held Lu Jiuqing's hand, and said softly: "Don't worry, the imperial court is indeed short of generals now, but it doesn't have to be that girl."

Lu Jiuqing did not speak, and remained silent.

Mo Xiao couldn't decide what Lu Jiuqing was thinking, so he could only remain silent for a while.

Lu Jiuqing thought for a long time, finally sighed and said to Mo Xiao, "Let her go."

Mo Xiao looked at Lu Jiuqing in surprise: "Really?"

Lu Jiuqing hummed.

Mo Xiao frowned, and his tone became more serious: "You may not quite understand what this means."

"Chen Yuan is not going to the border to support his retirement," Mo Xiao took a deep breath and revealed the biggest secret in the court, "The enemy's envoys are on their way, and I don't intend to let them go back. Over the years, they have looted countless gold and silver treasures from our court, and I plan to get them all back with interest. Therefore, if Chen Yuan goes this time, he will definitely meet the enemy's swordsmen in the near future. On the battlefield The sword has no eyes, and no one can guarantee that he will come back alive."

"Although I don't like that girl, she is one of the few relatives you have. Qingqing, I don't want you to lose anything anymore."

He wanted to keep everything Lu Jiuqing cherished for her.

Lu Jiuqing looked at Mo Xiao intently. After a while, he suddenly moved forward and leaned into Mo Xiao's arms.

Mo Xiao had been serious just now, but now his body suddenly froze.

He and Lu Jiuqing had done the most intimate things, but he usually took the initiative, and Lu Jiuqing rarely took the initiative to get close to him. Especially after something bad happened, it was like they were back to the beginning and became extremely alienated.

Like today, Lu Jiuqing had never acted so close to throwing himself into his arms.

Mo Xiao didn't dare to move, fearing that he would wake up the person in his arms. The hand hanging by his side tested, and he hugged the person carefully, speaking in an extremely soft tone: "What's wrong?"

Lu Jiuqing leaned in Mo Xiao's arms with peace of mind and said softly: "Thank you."
