"Baoyu is a great cook, and any dish is delicious. In addition, I can't eat that much by myself. If you throw away the unfinished food, it will be wasted." Qin Zhao said, and then turned to Baolan and told Baolan: "
You go and tell Baoyu that the emperor is here and ask her to cook some more dishes."
Bao Lan responded and left.
Xiao Ce didn't expect Qin Zhao to speak so lightly. He thought she was arrogant and willful and would not treat him badly in terms of meals.
He didn't know what his psychology was, but he continued to test: "How can I think it's a waste, my concubine? I am a noble concubine, so the food can naturally be better."
Qin Zhao is a smart man, how could he not know that Xiao Ce was testing him?
She didn't bother to explain, "The emperor said that I will make my food richer next time."
In this life, Xiao Ce would not do such a thing as testing her.
If she wanted to put on a show, she could have just acted coyly when she learned that Xiao Ce was coming.
Xiao Ce saw Qin Zhao's waning mood and saw Qin Zhao's indifference: "My beloved, don't you want to see me?"
Qin Zhao frowned slightly and said, "Your Majesty, you think too much. Your Majesty can come to Jinyang Palace to visit me, and it's too late for me to be happy."
Xiao Ce sneered when he heard this: "I can't see how happy my beloved concubine is."
Qin Zhao was about to answer when he suddenly heard Wu Xirou's footsteps arriving in front of Jinyang Palace.
In order to prevent Wu Xirou from seeing her joke, she could not anger Xiao Ce.
She got up and went to Xiao Ce. Xiao Ce didn't know what she was going to do and stared at her warily.
Xiao Ce's exaggerated reaction made Qin Zhao slightly curl his lips: "The emperor said that I am not happy to see the emperor, but I am obviously very happy."
As she spoke, she suddenly threw herself into Xiao Ce's arms.
Xiao Ce didn't expect Qin Zhao to be so direct. He subconsciously pushed Qin Zhao away. Qin Zhao was actually pushed away by him, and looked at him angrily and said: "The emperor came to visit me and accused me. Now,
In order to express how happy I am to see the emperor, the emperor pushed me away. What is the reason for this?"
Xiao Ce:......
Qin Zhao was not as enthusiastic as he is now.
"It is obvious that the emperor is not sincere enough, but the emperor turns around and accuses me of my concubine. The emperor does not bully others like this." Qin Zhao said, stamping his feet and saying coquettishly.
When Xiao Ce saw Qin Zhao's coquettish look, he couldn't help but frown: "Speak well!"
"Then the emperor still blames the concubine?" Qin Zhaoqing blinked his eyes and looked at Xiao Ce with a mixture of anger and resentment.
"It's not strange." Xiao Ce avoided Qin Zhao's eyes, but still felt that it was better for Qin Zhao to speak normally.
Qin Zhao burst out laughing when she heard this, and she immediately took hold of Xiao Ce's arm.
Xiao Ce was about to get rid of her when he heard her say: "Your Majesty, you are not allowed to get rid of me. This will make me very hurt."
Xiao Ce hesitated for a moment, and Qin Zhao took the next step, holding his arm and pulling him to sit next to him.
"If your Majesty is hungry, eat first. Baoyu cooks very quickly. We can wait while we eat." Qin Zhao said and diligently put food into Xiao Ce's bowl.
Xiao Ce knew that Baoyu was good at cooking. He took a bite and immediately nodded and praised: "It's really delicious."
"So, no matter what dish is in Baoyu's hands, it will become a delicacy." Qin Zhao smiled and put food into Xiao Ce's bowl again.
She propped her chin up and watched Xiao Ce eating elegantly. She had to say that it was a pleasure to watch a noble and handsome man eating.
Xiao Ce was a little annoyed when she saw him: "Turn around."
"Don't turn around, who told the emperor to be so good-looking?" Qin Zhao said, and touched Xiao Ce's face frivolously.
Xiao Ce suddenly turned to stone. This woman is really...
"Your Majesty, the Concubine Xian is here and is waiting outside." At this time, Zhang Jixiang came inside to report.
Hearing this, Qin Zhao took back her hands that were still on Xiao Ce's face. She smiled and said, "Sister Xian Fei is here. Please come in quickly."
"Yes, your concubine." Zhang Jixiang brought Wu Xirou in without waiting for Xiao Ce's request.
As soon as Wu Xirou came in, before she had time to salute, she saw Qin Zhao standing up to greet her with a bright smile: "Sister Wu is here, there are few visitors, please take a seat."
Xiao Ce stared at Qin Zhaocan's smiling face, feeling suddenly uncomfortable.
He remembered that when he first came here, there was no smile on this woman's face. Why did she feel like she was seeing her lover when she saw Wu Xirou? Her smile was so heart-warming.
Wu Xirou herself did not expect that Qin Zhao would be so enthusiastic. She thought that she and Qin Zhao were not friends in the past, but love rivals.
"Sister, you're welcome," she said.
"Sister, just treat this place as your own home, don't be formal." Qin Zhao looked at the shabby dishes on the table, the corners of his lips raised: "Sister, wait a moment, Baoyu is cooking, the dishes will be served soon. If
My sister is hungry, so she might as well eat with the emperor first."
"I'll have dinner with my sister." Wu Xirou said, looking at Xiao Ce who was expressionless at the side.
Judging from Xiao Ce's expression, Xiao Ce seems to be in a bad mood. Did Qin Zhao anger Xiao Ce?
If not, why would Qin Zhao be so enthusiastic about her? This was obviously just for show, just to show Xiao Ce?
Wu Xirou thought about it for a while, but her face remained unchanged.
Xiao Ce didn't say anything. When Qin Zhao saw this, he said, "Your Majesty, I'm going to see if Baoyu's place has cooked the food. I'll be back soon."
Without waiting for Xiao Ce's reply, she walked away without looking back.
She deliberately made room for Wu Xirou.
Just now, if she saw it right, Wu Xirou was holding a painting in her hand. Wu Xirou is a talented woman, good at playing chess, calligraphy and painting, while Xiao Ce is a talented person.
Wu Xirou must have wanted to attract Xiao Ce's attention in this way.
She avoided it because she was afraid that Xiao Ce would ask her to draw. She really had no talent in this area, so it was better to avoid it.
As soon as Qin Zhao left, the room suddenly became very quiet.
Xiao Ce used to be the most afraid of noisy people, but he didn't know when he got used to Qin Zhao's sharp teeth. When Qin Zhao, a noisy woman, left, he felt a little uncomfortable.
At this time, Wu Xirou's soft voice sounded: "How long has it been since the Emperor came to Jinyang Palace?"
"Just arrived." Xiao Ce replied coldly.
Wu Xirou clenched the painting in her hand, feeling that now was not the best time to discuss her painting with Xiao Ce.
But she didn't regret following him, at least she had another chance to meet Xiao Ce.
"Is your illness getting better?" Xiao Ce asked casually, remembering that Wu Xirou was still ill.
"I'm not completely healed yet, but I will make myself better as soon as possible." Wu Xirou's eyes were as gentle as water.
Xiao Ce looked calm and did not continue to discuss this topic with Wu Xirou.
Wu Xirou then randomly picked a topic, and Xiao Ce didn't answer a word. Suddenly, she felt that it would be better for Qin Zhao to be there, at least he wouldn't be left in the dark, even though the woman was a bit more verbose.
