When the noble ladies and concubines present saw that the emperor Xiao Ce was gone, their hearts flew away.
Some brave ones even wanted to follow, but were stopped on the way and had to turn back to the Imperial Garden.
The spring breeze was gentle and lingering. Everyone ate, drank, talked, and admired the flowers. When they were tired, they went to sit in the pavilion, where there would be delicious food and fruits waiting for them, as well as palace people and servants.
To put it simply, this Wanhua Festival was indeed very interesting. Everything that should be taken into consideration was taken into consideration. Everything went smoothly and everyone had a great time.
When the Ten Thousand Flowers Festival ended, everyone received small gifts carefully prepared by Qin Zhao, which made everyone feel flattered.
After everyone left, Qin Zhao found a seat and sat down. She thumped her waist and said, "I am so exhausted."
It's better to hold less big festivals like this. If they are held again next year, she hopes to keep everything simple.
Concubine Hu had not left yet. When she saw this, she said: "The palace has good medicinal wine. I will order someone to take some and send it to the palace..."
"There is no need to go to such trouble. There are all kinds of medicines in the palace. I appreciate your kindness." Qin Zhao interrupted Concubine Hu: "It's getting late. Concubine Hu should leave the palace earlier. I will return to Jin Dynasty."
It’s Yang Palace.”
When Concubine Hu saw this, she didn't know what to say.
Qin Zhao didn't want to deal with Concubine Hu anymore, so he went straight to the chariot.
She glanced in the direction of Wu Xirou. Wu Xirou seemed to sense something and walked towards her slowly: "Sister Qin is tired today. I will come to visit my sister after she takes a nap and replenishes her energy."
Qin Zhao didn't think much about it, nodded slightly, and took the chariot away.
After walking out of the Imperial Garden, Baozhu hummed softly: "This Concubine Xian is really well-calculated. Knowing that the Emperor would come to Jinyang Palace for dinner in the evening, he deliberately chose this time to come to visit the Concubine. I didn't know it was to visit the Concubine.
Or the Concubine Xian has other plans."
Qin Zhao was stunned and patted her forehead. If Baozhu hadn't reminded her, she would have forgotten that Xiao Ce was coming to Jinyang Palace for dinner.
She didn't worry whether the purpose of Wu Xirou coming to Jinyang Palace was to see her or to get along with Xiao Ce. It would be a good thing if Wu Xirou came to Jinyang Palace. If Wu Xirou was allowed to deal with Xiao Ce, she would have nothing to do.
Qin Zhao glanced at Baozhu, who was sulking, and smiled: "No matter what the purpose of Concubine Xian's coming here is, as long as it does not affect my rest, it will be fine. Don't be angry, you will age quickly like this."
Baozhu met Qin Zhao's smile, and she felt depressed in her heart: "This slave is not as grand as my empress."
"I am not grand." Qin Zhao's voice faded.
Just because Concubine Hu and Princess Yongning were chatting with each other in the imperial garden, it seemed that Princess Yongning was testing Concubine Hu on some seemingly insignificant topics.
This is interesting.
Could it be that even Princess Yongning could see that Concubine Hu's attitude was too warm, so warm that it was abnormal?
They walked further and further until they could no longer hear the conversation between Princess Yongning and Concubine Hu.
After Princess Yongning tried a few words, seeing that she couldn't get what she wanted from Concubine Hu, she simply made an invitation: "If Concubine Hu is not in a hurry to leave the palace, maybe she can go to Yongning Zhai in this palace and sit for a while."
Concubine Hu had no intention of staying for a long time: "I appreciate the kindness of the eldest princess. It took too long for me to enter the palace. I am afraid that the prince is worried and plans to leave the palace first. If there is a chance next time, I will go to Yongningzhai to visit the eldest princess."
Princess Yongning saw that Concubine Hu did not take the bait, but she remained calm.
She watched Concubine Hu go away, and when she turned around, she saw Princess Yongchun looking at her suspiciously: "What do you want to do?"
Yong Ning has a strange personality and rarely takes the initiative to talk to others. However, this time he took the initiative to have a lively chat with Concubine Hu, whom he had never been in contact with before. It felt abnormal when he saw it.
"I just thought Concubine Hu liked me, so I said a few more words. You don't talk to me, you don't interact with me, and you don't allow me to interact with other people?" Princess Yongning sneered softly.
"I used to believe everything you said, but now I'm skeptical about everything you say. Just take care of yourself. Also, remember not to provoke Qin Zhao, she is not someone you can provoke. Even Mrs. Wu is not Qin Zhao's opponent.
Do you think you are better than Princess Wu?" Princess Yongchun opened her lips coldly.
Princess Yongning sneered in response: "I have no grudges against the imperial concubine. As long as she doesn't provoke me, I won't provoke her."
She has only one real enemy, and that is Queen Mother Guo.
If there is a sharp weapon against Empress Dowager Guo, such as Qin Zhao, she can also use it.
Concubine Hu pressed her hot face against Qin Zhao today, but Qin Zhao remained lukewarm. Maybe she could use Concubine Hu to make an issue...
"You'd better remember what you said. If you really want to go against Qin Zhao, I can foresee what your ending will be like." After Princess Yongchun finished speaking, she walked away without looking back.
Princess Yongning looked at the back of Princess Yongchun.
This is the sister who grew up with her, but her heart is towards Qin Zhao. Yongchun may have forgotten that she and Qin Zhao were once incompatible, but Qin Zhao was quite capable and easily bought Yongchun's heart.
Qin Zhao is really her nemesis.
Originally, Concubine Wu was the best knife in her hand, but Concubine Wu was killed by Qin Zhao.
Concubine Rong was originally her strongest supporter, but it was Qin Zhao who caused Concubine Rong to die unexpectedly.
If it weren't for Qin Zhao, her road to revenge wouldn't have been so bumpy.
She used to hate Queen Mother Guo the most, but now she feels Qin Zhao is equally hated!
In Jinyang Palace, Qin Zhao was indeed tired. As soon as he returned to the palace, he took his child to take a nap.
When she opened her eyes, it was already evening.
At this time, Baozhu came over to help her get up, and whispered: "The Concubine Xian came here two-quarters of an hour ago and is waiting for her."
Qin Zhao stretched his body and said, "Enter Sister Wu well, but don't neglect your distinguished guests."
I was originally worried about having to deal with Xiao Ce at night, but with Wu Xirou here, the atmosphere shouldn't be too bad.
"Baolan is waiting in front of the Concubine Xian. Don't worry, I'll do your best. Baolan will do things properly and nothing will go wrong." Baozhu responded.
Qin Zhao smiled and finally dismissed the topic.
Because Xiao Ce was coming to have a meal, and Wu Xirou was also coming, Qin Zhao told the small kitchen early in the morning to make more delicious food.
Because Xiao Ce hadn't come yet, Qin Zhao went to see Wu Xirou first.
Wu Xirou stood up to greet her as soon as she saw her, and then said, "Sister, she seems to be in good spirits, but is she better?"
"Fortunately, I'm still young, so I recovered completely after a sleep. Now I'm full of energy and feeling very good." Qin Zhao said with a smile: "Did my sister take a break just now?"
"I'm okay. I'm not as tired as my sister after a whole day. I feel energetic after taking a nap." Wu Xirou handed over some ointment as she spoke: "Although these sisters can't use it yet, they may be able to use it someday."
It may not come in handy."
