Chapter 522 Do you dare to refuse?
Mo Xiao and Chen Yuan quarreled for a while, but nothing came out of the quarrel. Then they heard slightly hasty footsteps coming from outside, and the two of them looked up in an instant.
The person who came was indeed a secret guard who had rushed back from Jiangnan.
Different from returning empty-handed as usual, this time the secret guard also had a baggage on his body.
The secret guard knelt on the ground: "I've met your majesty, I've met the princess."
Mo Xiao didn't care much, walked a few steps to him with the child in his arms, and asked eagerly: "How is it? Do you have a reply?"
The secret guard's face was a little speechless for a moment. Under His Majesty's expectant gaze, he slowly shook his head.
The light in Mo Xiao's eyes dimmed little by little, but he still asked without giving up: "Then... has she read my letter?"
The secret guard's face became even more speechless, and he replied softly: "It's still the same."
He was still thrown into the brazier by the girl and burned to ashes.
Mo Xiao's face darkened visibly, and there was a hurt in his eyes that few people saw.
He is now the emperor, rich in the world, but he can't get any favor from his sweetheart. What's the use of being an emperor?
Just when Mo Xiao was disheartened, the secret guard suddenly took off the baggage on his body and opened a layer of black cloth on the surface. There was a clean small package hidden inside.
The secret guard lifted the bundle with some joy and said to Mo Xiao, "Although the girl didn't read the letter, she asked her subordinate to bring this back."
Mo Xiao stared at the baggage, his eyes moved, and he stretched out his hand to take it. He didn't bother to care about his image as an emperor, so he sat down on the carpet with the little prince in his arms and reached out to unpack the bags.
Chen Yuan, who was next to him, was about to leave, but when he saw the baggage, he turned around and came over.
After opening the baggage, everyone discovered that there were some children's clothes in the baggage, as well as tiger-headed dolls and other small things. They knew at a glance that they were for the little prince.
The secret guard knelt next to him and said softly: "The girl said that these were all made by her own hands. The materials used are ordinary and the workmanship is not as fine as the embroiderers in the palace. If, if Your Majesty feels that it is not appropriate for the little prince to wear these, he will ask his subordinates to do so." Please take these things out and burn them."
After the words fell, Chen Yuan immediately raised his head and looked at Mo Xiao: "How dare you!"
As if Mo Xiao had this idea, Chen Yuan would dare to kill the king now.
Mo Xiao clutched these things tightly, and was originally in a state of ups and downs. After being scolded by Chen Yuan, he immediately raised his head and glared: "Are you crazy? How could I throw away these things?"
Chen Yuan snorted: "I don't dare to measure you."
The secret guard next to him twitched his mouth and lowered his head deeply, not daring to watch the two people bickering.
Mo Xiao's fingers slid over these clothes, and his eyes turned slightly red.
God knows how panicked he has been over the past year, and he is getting more and more panicked.
He was afraid that after so much time, Lu Jiuqing would no longer even want his own flesh and blood that he tried so hard to protect. After all, Lu Jiuqing has never taken the initiative to mention this child for such a long time.
If Lu Jiuqing doesn't even want this child, then he may not be able to wait for Lu Jiuqing to look back in his life.
Because of this, he kept delaying naming the child. He just wanted Lu Jiuqing to name the child himself. This would at least make Lu Jiuqing care about the child, and also tell Lu Jiuqing that the child was hers. Make her feel like she belongs.
Mo Xiao sniffed, then raised his hand to take off the little prince's clothes, intending to change the little prince's clothes on the spot.
