In Xiangguo Temple, Yuwen Jing felt increasingly uneasy. Under Chen Mo's command, the Jinyi Guard protected Yuwen Jing, and a message was sent by carrier pigeon back to the Capital City requesting reinforcements.
Chen Mo feared for Yuwen Jing's safety and stayed by his side constantly.
The Ningzhou Iron Cavalry lured half of the Jinyi Guard out of Xiangguo Temple. Yuwen Jing couldn't do without protection; apart from those chasing outside, most remained inside the temple.
Chen Mo said, "Your Majesty, let us escort you back to the palace. The Jinyi Guard has been dispatched out, and I fear this is Xie Jue's strategy to lure the tiger from its den. With fewer guards, this place becomes increasingly unsafe."
Yuwen Jing sat in the main seat, his gaze cold. Immersed in his thoughts, he seemed not to hear Chen Mo's words. Chen Mo grew anxious and urged, "Your Majesty!"
