Xiao Ce was changing clothes and felt Qin Zhao looking at him. When he looked over, he saw her giving him an angry look.
Her eyes were as clear as if they had been soaked in lake water, and her eyes were flowing and full of charm.
Just this glance made his heart tremble.
Qin Zhao knew something was wrong as soon as she saw the change in Xiao Ce's eyes. She quickly straightened the pleats on her clothes and left the inner room.
Wu Xirou hadn't left yet, standing with her back to her in the dark night. Maybe the night was too dark, so looking at Wu Xirou's figure like this, she felt a little eerie.
"Concubine Xian, what do you want to discuss with me?" Qin Zhao opened his lips indifferently.
Wu Xirou looked back with her usual expression, explaining her purpose of coming.
The Chinese New Year was coming up in a few days, and Qin Zhao also knew that time was urgent. Seeing that it was windy outside, Qin Zhao simply let Wu Xirou inside to talk.
Xiao Ce had already dressed properly and seemed to be leaning lazily on the comb-backed chair. He was completely different from the strictness of the past. He looked suave and had a touch of uninhibited style.
Qin Zhao had never seen such a side of Xiao Ce. He just thought the man was seductive and couldn't help but look at him twice, a little absent-mindedly.
Xiao Ce saw Qin Zhao being distracted frequently and gave her a charming smile.
Qin Zhao secretly spat shamelessly, and then pretended to listen to Wu Xirou's words seriously.
Although Wu Xirou did not look directly at Xiao Ce, because Xiao Ce's presence was so strong, she glanced at Xiao Ce from the corner of her eyes.
Why can't such a man treat her better and treat her the way he treats Qin Zhao?
If she were as beautiful as Qin Zhao, would he pamper her and love her as he did Qin Zhao?
Xiao Ce on the side saw Wu Xirou talking endlessly about occupying Qin Zhao, and temporarily lost his patience: "It's just some small things, Concubine Xian can make the decision herself. Since Zhao Zhao asked you to help, you should do it well. If you can't do it, you should do it well."
Okay, let’s make a substitution. Get out.”
Qin Zhaozha felt a little weird when he heard Xiao Ce call him "Zhaozhao".
Doesn't he like to call her my concubine the most?
She glanced sideways at Xiao Ce, who happened to look over and caught her sneaky movements.
Because Xiao Ce issued an order to expel guests, Wu Xirou could only get up, but she was still unwilling to leave: "Sister Qin, I haven't tasted Baoyu's cooking for a long time. Can I stay at Jinyang Palace tonight?"
Qin Zhao got goosebumps when he heard her calling "Sister Qin".
Before she answered, Xiao Ce made up his mind for her: "Zhaozhao wants to have dinner with me, so he's not free!"
Wu Xirou's face turned pale and her heart trembled.
If Qin Zhao said this, it can only mean that Qin Zhao is competing for favor. But now it is said by Xiao Ce. It is Xiao Ce who wants to monopolize Qin Zhao. He is even jealous of her as a woman. Is this what you mean?
When she rushed in, Xiao Ce immediately took Qin Zhao into his arms. He didn't want her to see Qin Zhao's body. Is this so ridiculous?
Her heart was gnawed with blood by jealousy, but she still pretended not to care and stood up to say goodbye: "Then I will come back to accompany Sister Qin next time."
She said to Xiao Ce again: "I, my concubine, please retire."
Wu Xirou respectfully left the room. Xiao Ce couldn't wait to step forward and pull Qin Zhao up: "It's rare for me to be free. My beloved concubine has not seen anyone these days, so she can only stay with me."
"The emperor said yes, the emperor has the final say." Qin Zhaoruan muttered, but he couldn't help but be a little curious: "Why did the emperor call me by my nickname just now?"
Others would call her by her nickname when there was no one around, so why did he insist on calling her by her nickname in front of her outside? In front of her, he called her "Ai Fei, Ai Fei".
"Zhao Zhao is my beloved concubine, why not?" Xiao Ce pinched Qin Zhao's face and was satisfied with the smooth feel of her skin, so he pinched it a few more times.
Qin Zhao felt that his answer was wrong, but he didn't ask further.
The voices of the two people in the room were ups and downs, and even when Wu Xirou walked far away, she could still feel the intimacy in them.
On such a cold night, her blood seemed to be frozen by the ice under the eaves.
When she returned to Zhongcui Palace, she couldn't help but laugh loudly.
Her shrill laughter frightened both Liuli and He Fangruo. They both saw something was wrong with Wu Xirou when they were in Jinyang Palace, but they didn't know what happened to irritate Concubine Xian.
Seeing Concubine Xian's collapse, they all speculated that it had something to do with Concubine Xian and the Emperor.
They were both smart people. Remembering that all the attendants had been outside before, they must have been making out with the Emperor and the Concubine. The Concubine Xian saw it when she rushed in and was stimulated.
Liuli was calm at this time and reminded in a low voice: "No matter how favored the imperial concubine is, she can only be a royal concubine. If not, she can be an imperial concubine, but the empress is different. The empress can aspire to the middle palace. Then the imperial concubine will be different in front of the empress.
Do you have to bow your head? A momentary honor or disgrace is nothing, what do you think, the empress?"
Wu Xirou gradually returned to normal: "Yes, the New Year is coming soon. On the day of the New Year, I will definitely go to pay my respects to the Queen Mother."
"That's right, I'm waiting for the good news for you." Liuli said with a smile.
In Zhongcui Palace, the lights flickered, making Wu Xirou's dignified face look a little cold.
And inside Jinyang Palace, the lights were brightly lit.
Baoyu cooked a table of delicious dishes, and Xiao Celong was very happy. Qin Zhao served him well, and everyone in the main hall was rewarded.
Everyone felt that being on duty in front of Qin Zhao was the greatest blessing, because they had a master as powerful as Qin Zhao who could charm the emperor.
On the other hand, Qin Zhao was really tired.
She hoped that she could rest at night, but looking at Xiao Ce's dissatisfied appearance, it was unlikely that he would let her go easily.
It's not because of her narcissism. Xiao Ce is now very greedy for her body and wishes he could be with her all the time, but she has to rest, right?
She just didn't understand how Xiao Ce in his previous life could become like a foolish king, spending all day in the room with women, but this was clearly the Xiao Ce in his previous life.
He even remembered that he was going to lead the expedition in person.
"Is there something on your mind, my dear concubine?" Xiao Ce saw that Qin Zhao didn't want to eat and was looking ahead blankly. He couldn't help but be curious about what she was thinking.
Qin Zhao ate a chopstick dish, thinking that she would be full later and would have to feed Xiao Ce. Thinking about this, she would not be in a good mood.
"Don't worry, it's my honor to have dinner with the emperor." Qin Zhao flattered Xiao Ce unintentionally.
Xiao Ce liked to hear her say this very much: "It's good to know that my beloved concubine should be full, but she is too thin, so hold her hands."
Qin Zhao gave him a fake smile: "The emperor said that I will use two bowls of rice tonight."
Xiao Ce felt that her fake smile had a different kind of charm, so he couldn't help but take a second look.
After that, the two of them concentrated on eating, each with their own concerns.
Qin Zhao thought that he must not have sex again tonight, she couldn't afford to get hurt, but it was difficult to find an excuse to stop Xiao Ce without making him angry.
