When Qin Zhao was almost out of breath, Xiao Ce finally let her go.
He was probably really tired. Xiao Ce hugged Qin Zhao, their necks were entwined, and they soon fell asleep together.
In another carriage, Xiao Yi sat dumbly for a long time.
These few days were his stolen time. He knew that Qin Zhao would return to Xiao Ce soon, but when he saw the scene of Xiao Ce and Qin Zhao embracing each other happily, jealousy still gnawed at him like a poisonous snake.
Perfectly groomed.
If he could really give up everything and take Qin Zhao away, would it be a different kind of world?
Xiao Yi listened to the rumble of the carriage, his expression dull...
By the time we returned to the capital, it was already afternoon.
Xiao Ce took a good nap and felt much better.
The carriage did not stop, and after entering the city gate, it went straight to the palace.
Xiao Yi watched Xiao Ce's carriage go away from a distance, secretly thinking that he had saved Qin Zhao, but Xiao Ce didn't say a word to him. Could it be that he was suspicious of him?
When Qin Zhao's carriage disappeared, he left for Prince An's Mansion.
Concubine Hu had been waiting in front of Prince An's Mansion. Seeing that he finally returned, she immediately came forward to greet him. Then she smelled the smell of medicine on his body, and she frowned slightly: "The prince is injured?"
Xiao Yi was in a worried mood and said with a cold expression: "I am fine."
Concubine Hu followed Xiao Yi to the palace. When no one was around, she asked, "Is everything going well?"
Xiao Yi stood there in shock, thinking of the scenes he had spent with Qin Zhao these past two days.
Concubine Hu vaguely felt that Xiao Yi's mood was not right, so she got closer to Xiao Yi and said, "Your Majesty?"
"As soon as she saw the emperor brother, she rushed towards him. The emperor brother was also very happy to see her. Their relationship is indeed very good." Xiao Yi said in an unclear tone.
Concubine Hu remained silent.
Everyone said that the emperor treated the imperial concubine with great favor, and the only concubine he usually favored was the imperial concubine. That was the news coming from the palace.
Does the prince think that the concubine's favor is all fake?
"Your Majesty, you should calm down and don't delay important matters because of the love between your children." Concubine Hu advised in a low voice.
If one day the prince really becomes a big deal, why worry about not having a wife? Just a woman, is Qin Zhao really that good? How could the prince be so lost?
Xiao Yi went straight into the clean room.
Concubine Hu wanted to follow him, but after thinking about it, she decided not to join him at this juncture.
She has always been patient, especially at this time.
Soon she found two beauties who had just entered the palace and asked them to go to the clean room.
Xiao Yi saw the two beauties presented to him, one was charming, the other was innocent and full of charm. He thought about it for a moment, but Qin Zhao's unsuspecting face flashed before his eyes, and he lost interest for a moment: "Get out!
"
The two beauties looked at each other, never expecting that the prince would send them away...
That day, Qin Zhao was sent back to Jinyang Palace by Xiao Ce.
Although there was no news about Qin Zhao's disappearance in the palace, how could Anya not know that the main palace was much quieter than usual as they lived together in Jinyang Palace?
She once tried to go to the main hall. It was called to say hello, but in reality it was to find out what was going on.
Her father was dismissed from his post and was closely related to Qin Zhao. She was also rejected by the emperor and had no way out in her life. Her only thought now was to see Qin Zhao fall from his high position and be shattered into pieces.
However, in the past few days, she had not been able to enter the main hall to see what was going on, as she was always blocked out by the orb.
She increasingly felt that something had happened to Qin Zhao. It seemed that he left the palace on the second day of the Lunar New Year and did not return to the palace later.
Could it be that Qin Zhao was kidnapped?
Because she heard that the emperor had been unwell in recent days and had not attended the morning court for several days.
On this day, Anya planned to continue testing, thinking that she would use any means to see Qin Zhao. She even roped in a few harem sisters, hoping to use their numbers to break into the main hall to see what was going on.
Anya had a perfect plan, but Baozhu and Baoyuan were guarding the entrance to the main hall. In addition, Baozhu revealed the dragon jade, and the concubines were so frightened that they fell to their knees. How could they dare to break in?
In the end, everyone walked away in despair. Only Anya was unwilling to give in and always paid attention to the movements in the main hall.
She became more and more certain that something had happened to Qin Zhao, otherwise Xiao Ce, the emperor, would not have been absent from the morning court for several days in a row.
She really wished that Qin Zhao died outside the palace and never returned to the palace.
In the afternoon, there was movement in Jinyang Palace, and then a carriage entered Jinyang Palace.
Anya's immediate reaction was that Qin Zhao might have appeared. Unfortunately, there were maids and servants blocking the walls of the West and East Side Halls. No one could enter or leave, and even the line of sight was blocked.
Even if Anya wanted to see what was going on in the main hall, she could not get out of the confinement of the human wall.
Inside the main hall.
As soon as Qin Zhao came back, he took a shower and changed into a set of dry clothes.
After sleeping on the carriage for several hours, Xiao Ce would definitely ask her about the details of being kidnapped, right?
When Xiao Ce went to the clean room, Qin Zhao carefully recalled the incident and felt a little dazed.
Xiao Ce washed away his travel dust and changed into a set of clean clothes before sitting down next to Qin Zhao: "How are you these days?"
"Very good." Qin Zhao smiled: "If the emperor has anything to ask, just ask. I will tell you everything I know."
Xiao Ce touched her head: "I failed to protect you."
He always thought that even if there was an assassin, he would still kill him, and this time the assassin came for Qin Zhao.
"The incident happened suddenly and the emperor was caught off guard. It is none of the emperor's business. Besides, I didn't have any injuries this time. I just suffered a cold." Qin Zhao looked directly at Xiao Ce.
She knew what a petty man Xiao Ce was, but Xiao Yi abided by his duties along the way and did not do anything inappropriate to her.
"Please tell me more carefully." Xiao Ce opened his lips indifferently.
Qin Zhao then told everything about what happened after he was taken prisoner, and finally said: "When I was suffering from a high fever, King An took care of me for the whole night. I didn't expect that when I got better later, King An also
She was infected with wind and cold. King An said he was afraid that the emperor would be worried, so he simply sent his concubine back to Kyoto overnight. This is probably what happened."
She didn't dare to add fuel to the fire, but she still felt guilty. After all, she and Xiao Yi had been together for two days. Although there were other people present at the time, this was ancient times, and reputation was the most important thing in ancient times.
Coupled with the presence of Xiao Yi, a foreigner, if Xiao Ce feels that she has lost her reputation and has a knot in her heart, what should she do?
Qin Zhao felt uneasy. After she finished speaking, she found that Xiao Ce was silent, and her heart continued to sink.
She wanted to ask Xiao Ce if he didn't believe her, or if Xiao Ce thought she was having an affair with Xiao Yi.
"Zhaozhao, how deep did you sleep when you slept?" Xiao Ce suddenly asked after who knows how long.
Qin Zhao was stunned, remembering that she had been a little groggy for the past few days since she was ill, not to mention that day when she got wet from the water and wore wet clothes all day and night. At that time, she was so ill that she was groggy and almost unconscious.
