The enthusiasm in Xiao Yi's eyes, no matter how careful she was, Concubine Hu could still vaguely discern one or two.
It was fine in the past. Although the imperial concubine was also favored, Xiao Yi could still keep his composure. Later, something happened in the palace, and the emperor suddenly seemed to be a different person. There was a rumor that Qin Zhao was lucky for one night. At that time,
Xiao Yi couldn't sit still.
Now Xiao Yi used An's father to test how much the emperor cared about Qin Zhao, which was also done deliberately by Xiao Yi.
She was afraid that if things continued like this, the prince would discover his dark thoughts about Qin Zhao before the prince's great mission was accomplished. What would happen then?
"It will be the second day of February soon." Concubine Hu was thinking a lot when she suddenly heard Xiao Yi murmuring.
Concubine Hu didn't know why: "What happened on the second day of February?"
Xiao Yi glanced at Concubine Hu and did not answer.
Concubine Hu carefully thought about what was special about this day, and soon she remembered that the second day of February was Qin Zhao's birthday.
"Is your birthday coming soon?" Concubine Hu's heart skipped a beat: "What does the prince want to do?"
"I just want to see her." Xiao Yi murmured silently.
Maybe he shouldn't have borrowed wine to get close to Qin Zhao on the New Year's Day, so his desire to see Qin Zhao became stronger and stronger, and he couldn't hold it back no matter what.
It's just that Qin Zhao is in the deep palace, and she is locked under Xiao Ce's wings, so it is extremely difficult for him to see her.
The only chance is probably on Qin Zhao's birthday.
"My lord, you must not do this!" Concubine Hu's face changed slightly.
"What are you afraid of? Based on how much the emperor loves her, he will most likely take her out of the palace on her birthday. I want to see her from a distance." Xiao Yi glanced at Concubine Hu.
When Concubine Hu saw Xiao Yi's determined look, she knew she couldn't persuade him anymore.
"I will make arrangements right now." Concubine Hu stopped trying to persuade her.
It is precisely because he thinks about it every day but cannot see it that the prince is so worried, otherwise he will take the risk and fulfill his wish.
Xiao Yi has always known that Mrs. Hu is smart, wins his heart, and is reliable in doing things. In addition, he is obedient, so he cannot do without Mr. Hu's management.
That night, he stayed overnight in Concubine Hu's courtyard.
Concubine Hu also worked extra hard when serving her, but at the critical moment, Xiao Yi still mistook the woman in front of him for Qin Zhao...
In Jinyang Palace, Anya fainted again, so Qin Zhao had someone carry Anya back to the West Wing Hall.
She was also a little surprised when news came from the previous court that An's father had been dismissed.
Originally, she had a lot of anger that she wanted to vent, but in the end, Xiao Ce's move calmed down all her anger.
They have a tacit understanding, right? She punished Anya, and Xiao Ce punished An's father. Both of them were not good at each other, so they directed their anger towards the enemy.
But Xiao Ce hasn't come to see her yet, is it just because he cares about her and Zhao Yu's names being put together?
What can she do?
When she came to this world, she was already Zhao Yu's original wife. This was the plot bug, and she was nothing more than a cannon fodder. It was pretty good that she could survive to this level.
She didn't even mention that he had a harem of three thousand, and he always cared about her having married someone before.
Qin Zhao was in a good mood at the moment. Seeing that Xiao Ce didn't come, she felt relieved and fell asleep early.
Xiao Ce was very busy over there because he had been so angry with his stupid and bad father An for the past two days that he had no interest in government affairs.
Then I started to get busy when I ran out of time.
By the time he finished his work, it was too late to go see Qin Zhao.
Zhang Jixiang remembered something serious: "Your Majesty, the second day of February is the birthday of the imperial concubine."
Xiao Ce didn't remember Qin Zhao's birthday. He counted the days and soon it was Qin Zhao's birthday.
"Did Zhao Zhao have any big birthday celebrations in previous years?" he asked casually.
"The Imperial Concubine remembers the birthday of the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, but keeps a low profile when it comes to her own birthday." Zhang Jixiang answered truthfully.
Xiao Ce was silent for a moment and then said: "Let me think about it."
He remembered that A'Kuo once said that Qin Zhao might want to leave the palace because he longed for freedom.
If you take her out of the palace on her birthday, you may be able to make her happy.
After going to court the next day, Xiao Ce ordered Zhang Jixiang to handle this matter.
Zhang Jixiang happily accepted the errand and left the palace.
In the evening, Zhang Jixiang returned to the imperial palace and resumed his duties.
"The servant thought that the emperor had to finish his work before he could take the concubine out of the palace, so he made these arrangements. The emperor would like to see if there is anything else he wants to add." Zhang Jixiang told all his plans.
Xiao Ce listened carefully and finally said: "I will ask Zhao Zhao what he means later."
Zhang Jixiang immediately nodded in agreement.
He thought that the emperor cared about what An's father said, so he didn't go to see the imperial concubine for the past two days.
There have been a lot of rumors in the harem in the past two days. Many people can't wait to see the concubine's jokes, thinking that this time they will be ignored by the emperor again.
At first he couldn't figure out what the emperor was saying, so yesterday he tried to remind the emperor that the imperial concubine's birthday was coming soon.
So if you ask him to say, the person who understands the master's thoughts best in this world is him.
In this way, Xiao Ce led the imperial team to Jinyang Palace in a mighty manner. In order to please Qin Zhao, Xiao Ce even personally chose a set of tricks to coax Qin Zhao.
When Qin Zhao heard Xiao Ce's footsteps approaching, he immediately took Xiao Atom and came out to pick him up.
Little Atom glanced at his mother, who was just sorting out her clothes, and then at his father, who was walking towards them, and knew that his little substitute was going to be ignored by his mother again.
Sure enough, as soon as her mother saw her father, she happily stepped forward and left him alone.
He was still young, so he quickly fell into the crowd and was lost in the blink of an eye.
When Qin Zhao saw Xiao Ce, she really couldn't take her eyes away. After all, she hadn't seen anyone for two whole days. She unknowingly let go of her son's hand without seeing his resentful expression. All she could think of at the moment was Xiao Ce.
.
After not seeing each other for two days, I feel like this man has lost some weight.
Qin Zhao's eyes are particularly beautiful. They are usually bright and clear, like a curve of spring water. Now when he looks at people in the mist, his eyes are blurred, as if he is separated by thousands of mountains and rivers. It makes people want to wave the clouds to move the sun.
See what happens.
However, Qin Zhao also has another characteristic, that is, he is beautiful without knowing it.
Before Yun Ran entered the palace, everyone said she was the most beautiful woman, but her impression of herself was still at the stage of early death and cannon fodder.
Later, I became more beautiful, but I didn’t think I could be any more beautiful.
Later, when she became a mother and the mother of a child, she didn't even want to take the path of being the most beautiful woman. After all, the younger Yun Ran entered the palace.
Seeing Xiao Ce now, she was only concerned about whether Xiao Ce was angry with her. Judging from the sound of footsteps, Xiao Ce's mood seemed normal.
Looking at Xiao Ce's expression, there seems to be nothing wrong.
In addition to losing some weight, she seems to be better looking, that is, her eyes are more focused when looking at her.
