Xiao Ce didn't expect Qin Zhao to ask such a question. His eyes grew colder and he pushed Qin Zhao away from his arms. It was completely different from the tender and affectionate look just now.
"Do you know what you are talking about?!" Xiao Ce's voice was too cold to be warm.
Qin Zhao said hoarsely: "I know. I also know that the emperor's harem is just a decoration. I feel..."
"Presumptuous!!" Xiao Ce shouted angrily, interrupting Qin Zhao's words.
Qin Zhao lowered his head, suddenly feeling bored. Why should he humiliate himself even if he knew this would be the result?
So what if he likes her again? He can't disband the harem because of her.
Xiao Ce got out of bed and walked away in anger.
Qin Zhao looked at the bead curtain that was shaking like a weathered stone.
Xiao Ce left in anger, and Baozhu immediately came in to wait on her. She didn't know what happened, so she asked in a low voice: "Did the empress say something to make the emperor unhappy?"
Originally, according to the relationship between the Emperor and the Empress, the two of them should be on good terms.
At this time, Qin Zhao listened carefully and knew that there was no one around, so he said calmly: "I just proposed that the emperor should dissolve the harem."
Baozhu froze on the spot, never expecting this to happen.
She felt that the empress was stunned. How could she say such things to the emperor?
Although the emperor loves the imperial concubine, how could he disband the Three Palaces and Sixth House for the sake of the imperial concubine? You know, not long ago, the first talent show since the emperor ascended the throne was held.
"You also think I'm ridiculous, don't you?" Qin Zhao sighed softly: "It's not a big deal, I'll go take a shower before going to bed."
Baozhu saw Qin Zhao's fatigue and hurriedly stepped forward to help: "My Majesty, please don't ask the Emperor for this matter in the future. Your Majesty will be merciful if you don't punish your Majesty today..."
Qin Zhao looked at Baozhu, who blushed at her sight: "It's not that I don't stand on the side of the empress, but it's impossible for the emperor to abolish the Sixth Palace. This has never happened in Daqi, and no king has a harem.
There is only one woman..."
"If I say that I just think it's sad for women in the harem to spend their whole lives in the harem, that's why I make such a suggestion, do you believe it?" Qin Zhao opened his lips indifferently.
Bao Zhu's eyes turned red and she nodded vigorously: "Slave, I believe!"
"But the emperor will definitely not believe it." Qin Zhao went to the clean room, took a hot bath in the tub, and relaxed wholeheartedly.
When Baozhu saw that Qin Zhao was about to fall asleep, he whispered a reminder.
When Qin Zhao lay down on the bed, he was completely sleepless and kept his eyes open until dawn.
Only she knew that while she felt pity for the women in the harem, she was also testing Xiao Ce.
She knew that Xiao Ce had feelings for her, but she didn't know how much that feeling was. Looking at it now, it wasn't that much, right?
If she could freely control the extent of her feelings, she would return Xiao Ce's affection to him as much as he had affection for her. This would be fair.
Yun Ran came here early the next morning, and she borrowed the name to pay her respects to Qin Zhao.
It was Bao Zhu who came out to spread the news, saying that Qin Zhao didn't sleep well last night and was catching up on her sleep at the moment, and asked her to go back first.
"It's okay, I'll just wait here. It'll be fine if I go back anyway." Yun Ran did not back down.
Baozhu didn't say much and bowed respectfully.
Yun Ran himself didn't expect that he had to wait for an hour and a half.
When Qin Zhao came out to see her, he looked weak and his face was a little pale. Even so, Qin Zhao was still beautiful, with a touch of tenderness and pity.
Now she believed Baozhu's words. It was probably because Xiao Ce had tortured him so hard last night that Qin Zhao didn't get a good rest.
Thinking of this possibility, her heart sank. She was especially envious of Qin Zhao's opportunity to sleep with him, and also envied Xiao Ce for being so attentive to Qin Zhao.
And she didn't even have a chance to sleep with him, so she could only use this clumsy method to try to meet Xiao Ce more often.
Because Qin Zhao was worried, he didn't pay attention to Yun Ran's expression, and of course he didn't notice that Yun Ran was worried.
As Yun Ran talked, he mentioned Xiao Ce again: "When did the emperor leave Jinyang Palace yesterday?"
Qin Zhao didn't expect Yun Ran to ask this question. She shook her head calmly: "I didn't pay attention."
They broke up unhappy in the end, and he didn't sleep all night, but he didn't notice what time Xiao Ce left.
Only then did Yun Ran see that Qin Zhao was a little uninterested and in a low mood: "Sister, is there something on your mind?"
"I can eat and drink, so what can I worry about?" Qin Zhao looked calm.
Yun Ran thought in her heart that Qin Zhao was favored by Xiao Ce and was already much better than the other sisters in the harem, but he was still bothering himself. How could he be like her?
She deliberately sat there for a long time and finished talking about all the topics she could talk about. Xiao Ce was still nowhere to be seen, so she had to stand up and leave.
At dusk the next day, Yun Ran came again. She asked Qin Zhao to ask for his blessing, but she came here deliberately to try her luck. She hoped that when Xiao Ce came over, he could see her and remember her.
So she also deliberately dressed up.
Finally, she had dinner at Jinyang Palace, but Xiao Ce was still nowhere to be seen, and she felt a little disappointed.
Qin Zhao naturally knew about Yun Ran's plan, and she specifically mentioned it when sending Yun Ran away: "The emperor has been very busy recently, and he will probably not be walking around the harem these days."
Yun Ran's heart moved slightly, she felt that Qin Zhao said this to her on purpose.
Maybe Qin Zhao knew her purpose and used this method to make her retreat.
She remained calm, pretending not to understand what Qin Zhao said, and left.
When Qin Zhao saw this, he also knew that Yun Ran had not listened to his beating.
Based on her understanding of Xiao Ce, it is impossible for Xiao Ce to come to her these days, and he may not even see her for several months.
In the previous life, if he didn't see her, she would definitely run over and show her face, trying to make him happy.
Although she was moved again this time, she still had her own principles and would not stalk Xiao Ce without dignity again.
Time passed day by day, and it was already mid-November in the blink of an eye. Qin Zhao had not seen Xiao Ce for some days.
Later, she heard a rumor that Xiao Ce had a new love, a palace maid. At first she didn't take it seriously, but later she learned that the palace maid was A'Kou, who looked somewhat similar to her.
When she heard the news, she was dumbfounded.
People in Jinyang Palace were discussing this matter every day, saying that Xiao Ce had recently become obsessed with A'Kou, and kept A'Kou with him except when he was in court.
Naturally, Baozhu and the others would not tell her about this, but there were always gossips in Jinyang Palace, who would whisper about it whenever there was any disturbance.
Anya was even funnier, and actually said to Yinghong: "If Qin Zhao and I are similar, maybe we will have a chance to rise to the top."
The envy in her tone made Qin Zhao unable to laugh.
Once upon a time, Anya was also a proud woman, but her edges were eventually smoothed away, and she actually degenerated to the point of envying a palace maid.
After staying in the harem for a long time, who will not change?
