"Yoyo, don't worry about this. I have my own way of solving this problem. It will come to this sooner or later."

What Xiao Linchuan said does make sense. No matter what, he cannot escape the reality of being truly hostile to Emperor Mingzhen. It is just a matter of time.

Shen Moyu understood, and Xiao Linchuan also knew it very well. That was why, although he had been restraining his temper over the years, he had no feelings for the people of the Xiao royal family. He was just afraid that one day they would become enemies and he would not know how to face it.

This result is the best option he can foresee. Thinking of this, Xiao Linchuan and Shen Moyu fell silent.

Only Xiao Xuan seemed to be fine. "In fact, my father has been arbitrary for so many years. If possible, he should be allowed to accept things beyond his understanding."

"But Xuan'er, have you ever thought about this? Your father is the emperor and the master of Mingzhen. He has the final say and does not allow anyone to challenge his authority. So what your uncle did is equivalent to challenging his bottom line. This is a very dangerous thing."

Shen Moyu might not even realize that she had actually begun to care about Xiao Linchuan.

"So what? Mo You, don't forget that we will soon return to our own place. We are here just for..."

Xiao Xuan was obviously a little excited, but before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Xiao Linchuan, "Xuan'er, don't say anything that has not been determined yet. What do you think this place is?"

"I'm sorry, I just couldn't control my emotions for a moment."

Xiao Xuan also realized that he was indeed too impulsive just now, and blinked his eyes with some regret, "But little uncle, my father has never been a reasonable person, I am a little scared."

"What are you afraid of? Are you worried that he will kill me?"

Xiao Linchuan was both amused and confused, and felt that Xiao Xuan's worry was totally unnecessary, "He won't."

"Why is His Royal Highness the Regent so confident?"

Shen Moyu didn't understand why Xiao Linchuan could be so sure that Emperor Ming Yu would not attack him without any evidence.

This is no joke. Any mistake could put her life in danger. She doesn't like Xiao Linchuan not caring about his own safety.

"It's not that he is confident, but he can't possibly do anything to me because he promised my father that he would keep me safe for the rest of my life. He swore this oath in front of all the ministers. Unless he wants to risk the wrath of the world and overturn this oath, that's another matter."

Xiao Linchuan's words were a bit inappropriate, but Shen Moyu felt relieved after hearing them. Emperor Mingzhen valued his reputation the most, and it was indeed impossible for him to ignore the reputation he had accumulated over the years just because of Xiao Linchuan.

But he did offend Emperor Mingzhen, this is an indisputable fact, and when Shen Moyu looked at Xiao Linchuan, his eyes unconsciously showed a bit of worry.

"The person who should be worried now is probably the one in Jingning Palace."

Xiao Linchuan knew that no matter what he said, Shen Moyu would never be truly reassured. Instead of doing that, it would be better to change the subject and bring it to someone else.

"You mean Xiao Ting?"

Shen Moyu raised her eyebrows slightly, thinking that after what happened tonight, Xiao Ting would completely become estranged from Queen Su Mojie, which was exactly what she wanted to see.

"Yes."

Xiao Linchuan nodded, then smiled and said, "The Queen values ​​your Majesty's thoughts the most. Xiao Ting gave them such a big surprise tonight. I think his life will not be easy."

Jingning Palace.

"Pah! Pah..."

Loud slaps echoed in the main hall of Jingning Palace. Queen Su Mojie sat on the chaise longue, her elegant face full of gloom and solemnity. "Xiao Ting, what did I tell you?"

"Mother, I know you are wrong."

Although Xiao Ting said that he admitted his mistake, he didn't agree in his heart. He could have made a detailed plan tonight and killed Shen Moyu in Jingning Palace. Of course, this was on the premise that nothing went wrong.

"Do you know you are wrong? What is your mistake? Xiao Ting, Xiao Ting, why did you pick on Shen Moyou when there are so many people you could pick on? Don't you know that she is the Crown Princess I chose for your brother?"

Queen Su Mojie was almost furious. All the good plans were messed up by Xiao Ting. Not only that, but she was also embarrassed in front of His Majesty!

"I know, but mother, I am unwilling to accept this. It was me who saw Shen Moyou first. Besides, Shen Moyou is not a good person. Even if you want to choose a princess with a good family background for my brother, you should not choose her. Shen Moyou will not be controlled by you obediently."

At this time, Xiao Ting was still thinking about his royal brother. If Shen Moyu really became the Crown Princess, not only would he have no peace of mind, but even his mother and the others would suffer.

If he wanted to use the power of Shen Moyu's mother's family to build his own power before, now he can't wait to get rid of Shen Moyu to prevent future troubles.

However, Queen Su Mojie had always looked down on this son, and now that he had done something so unreasonable, it was even more impossible for her to believe it.

"I can tell the difference myself. What you should do now is to stay in the palace quietly and reflect on yourself until the day you go to the border. Don't provoke Shen Moyu again, and don't make your father angry again."

Empress Su Mojie mentioned Emperor Mingzhen in every word she spoke. Her love for Emperor Mingzhen was obvious to everyone.

Emperor Mingzhen, who was still a prince at the time, was not even the best choice for the position of crown prince to the late emperor, but she still married him without hesitation and used the power of the Su family to help him seize the throne.

However, it was different from what she expected. After Emperor Ming Zhen ascended the throne, although he immediately made her the queen, he also gradually marginalized the Su family.

After Emperor Ming Zhen ascended the throne, the Su family of Wuyang Marquis Mansion no longer had any real power. The only thing that people were afraid of was the queen.

Over the years, my father Su Boyan was actually unwilling to accept this. He had clearly made great contributions to the emperor, but in the end, he got nothing. It is said that the emperor is ruthless, and now it seems to be true.

"Mother, why don't you understand that letting Shen Moyou into the palace is your biggest mistake. Do you really think she is as harmless as she appears to be?"

Xiao Ting was a little anxious. After all, no matter what, the person in front of him was still his biological mother. He didn't want to put Queen Su Mojie in danger just for the position of Crown Princess.

"That's enough, Xiao Ting, I have my own considerations on this matter, you don't have to say anything more!"

It was obvious that Queen Su Mojie had run out of patience with Xiao Ting. She even felt that this son was so uncontrollable that it was better not to have him.

"Mother, is my son so unbearable in your eyes and heart?"

Xiao Ting looked at Queen Su Mojie with a hurt face. He had always wanted to get the approval of his mother since he was a child, but his wish had never come true.
