"Yoyo, don't be like this, my brother has his reasons."

He was not sure whether Shen Moyu would continue to regard him as the most important relative after knowing it, nor was he sure whether Shen Moyu would accept it if he told her. After all, no one wants to be away from their hometown, at least that's what he thought.

Seeing Shen Moyu's agitation, Xiao Linchuan held down Mo Xinchen who was about to continue speaking, and his eyes fell on Madam Liao who was only breathing out but not in. "Oh, these two people are not suitable to stay in the Rose Courtyard, leave them to me!"

"Your Highness the Prince Regent, do you even want to get involved in the family affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion? Haven't you seen enough of my jokes on the roof just now? If not, I don't mind you continuing!"

Shen Moyu's words were completely irrational and full of sarcasm. She said whatever was unpleasant to hear. Anyway, she was already sad and upset, so she would not let them have an easy time.

"Yoyo, why are you saying these things? You know that Rinchuan is thinking about you. How will you look like if you are a young girl who has not even reached the age of marriage and you are shouting for war and killing?!"

As soon as Mo Xinchen finished speaking, he realized something, his face turned pale, and he took a step forward to try to make amends, but it was too late.

Shen Moyou looked at him with an unusually strange look in his eyes, "Yes, I am just shouting for war and killing. If Young Master Mo can't stand it, just stop watching. There is no need to stay here."

"Yoyo, you know that's not what I meant..."

Knowing that Shen Moyou had misunderstood, Mo Xinchen was anxious and a little annoyed, "I'm just worried about you!"

"unnecessary!"

Shen Moyou was very emotional and yelled at him, "Even without you, I can still do what I want to do. Mo Xinchen, since you want to handle everything by yourself and don't tell me anything, why bother pretending to be doing good for me? I don't need this kind of goodness!"

"You are emotionally agitated right now, it is not appropriate for us to continue talking."

Mo Xinchen did not provoke Shen Moyu, but instead wanted to retreat, "Linchuan, let's go!"

Xiao Linchuan's eyes fell calmly on Shen Moyu's face, and then he approached her step by step, "What do you want to know? Tell me, don't get angry, I will tell you everything you want to know, okay?"

"Xiao Linchuan, I said I'm leaving!"

Mo Xinchen reached out his trembling hand to pull Xiao Linchuan's sleeve, but he shook it off, "Achen, I know what I'm doing."

His words seemed to have magical power, instantly calming Shen Moyu's emotions, "Why? Why didn't you tell me? Why did you hide it from me under the banner of doing it for my own good? You knew I didn't like it the most..."

Shen Moyou burst into tears. She didn't really blame Mo Xinchen at all. She was just scared. She was afraid that after her rebirth, she still wouldn't be able to change the fate of the Mo family. She was also afraid that all her efforts would be in vain, and that she would get the same result even if she tried her best.

"I know. I'm sorry. We shouldn't treat you this way. Yo, if you don't want to, then we won't do this again in the future, okay?"

Xiao Linchuan pulled Shen Moyu into his arms, coaxing her softly, caressing her back to comfort her, "Just you have to know that what we are doing is extremely dangerous. Your brother didn't tell you because he wasn't sure if this thing would succeed and whether it would implicate you."

When Shen Moyu was calm, she was also very reasonable. She just yelled at Mo Xinchen like a madman, and she regretted it after venting her anger. Mo Xinchen loved her the most since she was a child, so how could he lie to her if there was no reason.

After all, she was too impulsive...

"So I guessed it right? You really have other plans?"

Shen Moyou leaned in Xiao Linchuan's arms and said in a muffled voice, "Then can you tell me what you are doing?"

"Yoyo, do you know Dazhao?"

Xiao Linchuan did not rush to answer her question, but asked another question.

She had heard of Dazhao. Xiao Linchuan's biological mother, Concubine Rou, was from Dazhao. The twins Xiao Xuan and Xiao Ling were also from there. Her intuition told her that this Dazhao should be related to what Xiao Linchuan was going to say next.

"Da Zhao has a strong military force and has always been eyeing Ming Zhen covetously. Over the years, they have been sending people to marry and provoking the Mo family army. Their actions are contradictory, but it is undeniable that Da Zhao is Ming Zhen's strong enemy."

In other words, if a war really breaks out regardless of the consequences, Mingzhen is no match for Dazhao. The reason why Dazhao is still wary of Mingzhen is simply because Mingzhen has the Mo family army.

The Mo family army has always been known for its bravery and fighting skills. From the commander to the soldiers, all of them are loyal to the emperor and patriotic. They have guarded the border for many years without any complaints. It can be said that the Mo family army is the last line of defense for Dazhao's attack on Mingzhen.

Therefore, over the years, although Emperor Mingzhen felt that the Mo family was more powerful than him, he kept his troops on hold and did not take action against the Mo family because they were afraid that without the Mo family, Mingzhen would have no support to compete with Dazhao.

The Mo family also knew this very well, especially General Mo, who had lived in seclusion for many years and kept a low profile, just to leave some wiggle room for the royal family and the Mo family. Since they knew that the royal family was wary, they should just keep to themselves and do their part.

"It seems that you know something about Dazhao."

Xiao Linchuan seemed very satisfied with Shen Moyou's answer, which made Shen Moyou even more confused. "Why are you asking this out of the blue?"

"Yoyo, if the Mo family abandons Mingzhen one day and joins Dazhao, will you look down on the Mo family?"

This question should not be asked by Xiao Linchuan, so before he could open his mouth, Mo Xinchen spoke first, but his face became even paler, and the look he gave Shen Moyu was extremely nervous.

From the time he promised Xiao Linchuan until now, he has never dared to face his inner heart, let alone reveal a single word to Shen Moyu, for fear that she would think that the Mo family was treacherous, not only abandoning their own country, but also defecting to the enemy country!

"Why do you ask that, little brother?"

Shen Moyu was a little confused, but her mind was as clear as a mirror. She knew what Mo Xinchen was worried about, but she could only play dumb.

"Yoyo, answer the little brother's question first."

Mo Xinchen was a little anxious. The feeling was indescribable. It was like being roasted on a fire, and he was in great torment inside.

"Brother, although I don't know when you and Xiao Linchuan started planning, but when you asked me whether I would look down on the Mo family, my answer is never, because over the years, the suppression of the Mo family by the Xiao royal family has been witnessed by all of Mingzhen!"

"Yo yo..."

Mo Xinchen wanted to say something, but Shen Moyou raised his hand to interrupt him, "Little brother, please listen to me first."

Mo Xinchen nodded, "Okay, go ahead!"

"The Mingzhi border was guarded by the blood and bones of the Mo family army for many years. What about them? They are far away in the imperial city and don't care about it. They turn a blind eye to the Mo family army's years of hard work. Instead, they are afraid that their achievements will surpass theirs. This is so ironic and ridiculous!"
