After a tragic death and rebirth, I became the regent's favorite

Concubine Ruan was so excited that she didn't feel anything about Xiao Xuan's panicked tone. She just felt that she had been greatly deceived.

"When did you find out? Does it matter? What matters is that you have already decided to go back, right?"

Xiao Xuan understood what Concubine Ruan meant. She was afraid that she now felt that they were going to abandon her and return to Dazhao. Xiao Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. If that was the case, it was not so bad. She was afraid that her mother had misunderstood something else, which would be really troublesome.

"Mother, let's go back to Xiyue Palace first. We will tell you everything you want to know, okay?"

Xiao Xuan carefully asked for Concubine Ruan's opinion because in her mind, Concubine Ruan was really a very, very important existence. She didn't want Concubine Ruan to misunderstand her and Xiao Ling casually.

Concubine Ruan was reasonable and knew that this was not the place to talk about such things, so she nodded with a heavy face.

"Yoyo, will you come out of the palace with me?"

Seeing that Shen Moyu was also about to follow Xiao Xuan and the others, Xiao Linchuan reached out and grabbed her, but the latter was so scared that she quickly broke free.

"Your Highness the Regent, please respect yourself!"

Shen Moyu's tone was distant, which made Xiao Linchuan feel uncomfortable and even more disappointed.

"Yoyo, the palace is no longer suitable for you to stay here. Be obedient and follow me out of the palace!"

Although Xiao Linchuan was dissatisfied with Shen Moyu's attitude towards him, he did not really do anything but continued to persuade her. It was obvious that the palace was in a mess and no one knew when something uncontrollable would happen again.

Just like Shen Moyu himself said, this is the palace after all. Even if he has extraordinary abilities, it is difficult for him to display them here. The only way is to take Shen Moyu out of the palace now.

But no matter what he said, Shen Moyu had to be willing to do it. To his disappointment, Shen Moyu did not listen to him, but shook his head and refused.

"Your Highness, at this critical moment, I cannot leave here. I have many things to confirm. It is more convenient for me to stay in the palace. If possible, can you take my mother out?"

As soon as Shen Moyu's words came out, she was rejected by Mo Wushuang, "Yoyo, no, mother won't leave. I want to stay by your side as I said. You can't send mother away!"

It's not surprising that Mo Wushuang reacted so strongly. It's not that she didn't have the ability to stay. It's just that once Xiao Linchuan nodded and agreed to let Shen Moyu take her out of the palace, then Xiao Linchuan would naturally do what he said. In this case, naturally she couldn't stay. This was why Mo Wushuang was anxious.

"Mother, don't you understand? If you stay here, I will not be able to move freely. Only if you leave the palace, I can be free. Can you promise me that?"

Shen Moyu knew that doing so would be extremely cruel to Mo Wushuang, but she still did it, because there was really no other way.

Only when Mo Wushuang leaves the palace can she truly take action against Xiao Ting and the others, as well as those people in Wuyang Marquis' Mansion. She will not let any of them go. Thinking of this, the murderous intent that naturally revealed in her eyes scared Mo Wushuang enough.

"Yoyo, tell me, what do you want to do? No matter what, I don't want you to put yourself in danger!"

Mo Wushuang was already worried and couldn't let it go. Shen Moyu was her life, and she would never allow any accidents to happen to Shen Moyu.

"Mother, you're overthinking. There won't be any danger. It's just that you can't get a tiger cub without risking it. I have to do what I want to do. After I leave the palace, I will explain everything to you. So now, can you leave the palace with His Royal Highness the Regent? Don't let me worry."

To Mo Wushuang, Shen Moyu is her life, but to Shen Moyu, Mo Wushuang is also the most important person to her and the one she cannot lose.

In her past and present lives, she owed Mo Wushuang too much, so even for Mo Wushuang, she must be safe. Thinking of this, Shen Moyu became more determined to stay in the palace.

Knowing that no matter what she said, she could not persuade Shen Moyou to leave the palace, Mo Wushuang thought about it and nodded in compromise, because even if she didn't compromise, Shen Moyou would still have a way to force her to compromise. Matters between mother and daughter sometimes require extra caution. You care about me and I care about you. If you are not careful, it will hurt the relationship between mother and daughter even more.

Shen Moyu understood this, and Mo Wushuang also understood this, so they actually compromised with each other.

"Yoyo, I'll leave Chonglou here. He's very familiar with the situation in the palace and can react more quickly if there's any change. But I still say the same thing, you can do whatever you want, just don't hurt yourself."

Xiao Linchuan was already very kind to Shen Moyou, to the point where even Xiao Xuan would get jealous, "Little uncle, why don't you think it's dangerous for me to be here?"

"Stop talking nonsense. I'll leave Chonglou here. If you need anything, can't you tell him?"

Xiao Linchuan knew that Xiao Xuan was teasing him on purpose, but he was not angry. He just patted Xiao Ling on the shoulder and said, "I probably can't go to the palace too often these days. I will entrust your sister and the eldest daughter of the Shen family to you. You must take good care of them, understand?"

"I understand, little uncle. Don't worry. Ling'er has grown up and knows how to do many things. I will definitely not let you down."

Xiao Ling clenched his fists and assured Xiao Linchuan in a firm voice that what he said was actually the truth. It was indeed so. Many times, people around him would subconsciously protect him, thinking that he was still the little boy who would hide behind Xiao Xuan and cry when he was a child.

Little did he know that the little boy had already grown up and he also had people he wanted to protect, such as Xiao Xuan and Concubine Ruan.

Xiao Ling has always been very clear about his own life experience. Although Concubine Ruan is not his biological mother, she has never treated him and Xiao Xuan harshly over the years.

In his and Xiao Xuan's minds, Concubine Ruan is their mother, there is no doubt about that, unless Concubine Ruan herself no longer wants them.

Xiyue Palace.

Back in the palace, Xiao Xuan and Xiao Ling knelt in front of Concubine Ruan in perfect tacit understanding, "Mother, I deserve to die. I have kept this secret from you for so many years. Please forgive me!"

Concubine Ruan did not let them get up immediately, but she couldn't control her tears.

"Blood is connected by heart. I have always known that you are not my biological children, but what can I do? Things have already happened. You were so young back then. I don't know where my biological children are. But if I make a big fuss, your lives will be in danger. After thinking it over, I decided to make the best of a bad situation. I thought I would keep making bad mistakes, but who knew..."
