"Do you think you can get out of Kyoto? Seth is outside the inn. As soon as you go out, he will be taken to Da Yueshi. I heard that Seth is a cruel man and his methods of torturing people are vicious and diverse. You fell into his trap
I don't know how many days I can live with my hands. If you don't return to the palace, then follow him." After Xiao Ce finished speaking, he walked away with graceful steps.
Qin Zhao felt that Seth was not as vicious as Xiao Ce said, but she clearly remembered that she had teased Seth twice.
She had learned how vengeful Seth was in her previous life. If she fell into Seth's hands, she would definitely die a bad death.
Without hesitating for too long, she followed Xiao Ce and asked: "Your Highness, what about my dowry? I can't enter the palace, the dowry is still outside the palace."
Wen Chong looked at the stiff back of His Highness the Crown Prince and whispered: "Don't worry, Miss Qin, I will definitely send your dowry back to the East Palace safely."
This can be regarded as a failure of merit. I hope His Highness the Crown Prince will not hold grudges.
"Then Master Lao Wen is here." Qin Zhao was also afraid that this matter would implicate Wen Chong, so he whispered to him: "Don't worry, Master Wen, I won't implicate you in this matter. You are a good person, and good people will be rewarded."
."
Wen Chong didn't expect that Qin Zhao would see through his thoughts, and he felt ashamed: "Miss Qin's words are serious."
"Then I'll leave first." Looking at Xiao Ce who was slowing down in front of him, Qin Zhao chased after him with a sense of crisis: "His Royal Highness, wait for the daughter of the people."
Her shout made Xiao Ce quicken his pace.
At this moment, Qin Zhao was even more sure that Xiao Ce was actually very narrow-minded. She didn't notice it in her previous life and thought he was perfect. In fact, his bad temper really made people dare not respect him.
Just like that, she chased him out of the inn, and sure enough, Seth hadn't gone far yet. The moment he saw her, Seth's face turned dark.
"Miss Qin is really sharp-tongued."
Seth was probably furious, and Qin Zhao heard the sound of him grinding his teeth.
She pretended to be innocent: "Has His Highness not left yet? I was indeed kicked out of the palace by His Highness the Crown Prince, but His Highness the Crown Prince was generous and kind. He suddenly felt that the crime I committed would not be punished so severely, so he showed mercy and let me go."
I will go back to the East Palace to be a palace maid and work part-time to pay off my debts..."
"Qin Zhao!" Xiao Ce's voice of quenching ice slag came from not far away.
Qin Zhao looked at Seth again and knew in her heart that the relationship between herself and Seth was finally over. She didn't believe what she just said, let alone Seth?
Seth thinks very highly of himself, but he fell into her verbal trap twice, and he will definitely hold a grudge against her.
She gave up her dying struggle and was about to follow Xiao Ce when she heard Seth's cold voice behind her: "Qin Zhao, I remember you. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely take you to Dayue clan as a guest."
Qin Zhao felt a chill on the back of her neck. She quickened her pace and ran to Xiao Ce, feeling safe.
On the way back to the palace, Qin Zhao didn't speak, and Xiao Ce looked serious. Qin Zhao was used to Xiao Ce's cold face. She was worried that she would still be targeted by Seth, which would harm Xiao Ce.
Ever since she met Seth in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, she felt that her bad relationship with Seth had already begun and she could not get rid of it no matter what.
As soon as they entered the East Palace, they heard some palace maids whispering that Wu Xiyu would enter the East Palace tomorrow and officially become Xiao Ce's concubine.
Moreover, this matter has spread throughout the harem, and it is making a fuss. It is reasonable for it to spread to the East Palace.
Qin Zhao heard with sharp ears that she took a peek at Xiao Ce, wondering how he would react if he would soon have a beauty like Wu Xiyu.
But it is a pity that Xiao Ce's eyebrows did not move, as if Wu Xiyu was not his woman.
The maid who was discussing the matter belatedly discovered that His Highness the Prince had returned to the East Palace, and was so frightened that she fell to her knees.
Xiao Ce turned a blind eye and took Qin Zhao into the main hall.
Qin Zhao originally wanted to use Wu Xiyu to shift the focus, but seeing Xiao Ce's expression as cold as an iceberg, she gave up the idea.
She was actually right. It was her fault to leave without saying goodbye, but in that case, would she have to obediently become one of the men appointed by Concubine Shu to fill her house?
"Don't you have anything to say to me?" After waiting for two quarters of an hour, Xiao Ce finally broke the deathly silence at the scene.
"No." Qin Zhao said calmly.
The reason why she apologized was simply because she left without saying goodbye.
"Then tell me, why did you never mention it to me that my mother and concubine asked you to marry me? Or do you think it was Gu who ordered my mother and concubine to marry you?" Xiao Ce's voice suddenly increased:
"Qin Zhao, look at me and say something back!"
Qin Zhao raised his head to look at Xiao Ce and replied in a low voice: "At first, the people's daughter did doubt that it was His Highness the Crown Prince, but the people's daughter knew that His Highness the Crown Prince was not such a person. Concubine Shu is the biological mother of His Highness the Crown Prince, the people's daughter
I also think that Concubine Shu is right to think about His Highness the Crown Prince, and the best way is for a commoner girl to leave the palace."
Since her leaving the palace is good for everyone, why not fulfill everyone's wishes?
She doesn't want to follow the same path of her previous life, but the plot seems to be going the same way as her previous life, except that she came earlier in this life than in her previous life.
She never expected that she would end up entangled with Xiao Ce again, even though she just wanted to survive.
"After all, do you still have a point?" Xiao Ce sneered.
He has never seen such a dishonest woman. She would shrink back when something happened, and even leave the palace without a word of advice. How dare she?!
"I have a point in the beginning. Just because His Highness has a high and powerful position, you can't think that civilian girls should report everything to His Highness, right? Marrying is considered a good thing, but even if you marry, civilian girls also want to do it according to their own wishes. This
This is also the reason why the daughter of the people asked Lord Wen for help. The daughter of the people thought about leaving the palace and meeting a suitable man in the future. There is a possibility of remarriage for the women of the people, but if they are detained in the palace, they will never have such a chance——"
Before Qin Zhao could finish speaking, she heard Xiao Ce slap his palm on the table. The sound was so loud that she was startled.
She met Xiao Ce's cold eyes and felt a little frightened for a moment.
But she still told the truth without fear of death: "People's women are right!"
"Qin Zhao, have you learned to talk back?!" Xiao Ce couldn't believe that Qin Zhao didn't want to repent, and actually thought he was justified in what he said.
Hearing this, Qin Zhao finally couldn't help it anymore: "Your Highness always regards civilian girls as children. Min girls have grown up, have been married, and have gone to court. They are already seventeen years old. Min girls are older women. Your Highness
Is there any cognitive error?"
"So, you are old enough to want to get married, but are you short of a man? How many times have you said that you can be Gu's woman, which will solve all your troubles. Why do you want to sacrifice the near and seek the far away?" Xiao Ce really can't understand women.
way of thinking.
I don’t know if Qin Zhao is more difficult to understand, or if other women are as complicated as Qin Zhao.
Qin Zhao didn't know how to answer Xiao Ce's question.
She couldn't tell him that she had followed him in her last life and loved him to death, right? But one-sided love was not beautiful at all, and the pain of not getting what she wanted made her not want to try again.
She just doesn't want to fall into the emotional quagmire anymore. It is human instinct to avoid risks, and she is not immune to it.
"Your Highness is too good, and Qin Zhao is not worthy of it. If you really follow His Highness, the daughter of the people will feel inferior." Qin Zhao randomly found a reason and excuse.
Of course, this is also true.
Now she has nothing. She has no family support, no good looks, and no woman's figure. She has not even been able to develop physically.
She herself felt that such Qin Zhao was too mediocre and would damage the reputation of Crown Prince Xiao Ce.
"I understand what you mean." After a moment of silence, Xiao Ce finally spoke with an unpredictable expression.
Qin Zhao felt something was wrong with Xiao Ce's expression: "What do you understand, Your Highness?"
Now she didn't understand what Xiao Ce meant.
"My concubine feels that it is not appropriate for you to live in the East Palace because you do not have a proper identity. As long as this problem is solved, my concubine will no longer be able to marry you." Xiao Ce lightly curled his thin lips.
Xiao Ce's words shocked Qin Zhao: "So, what does Your Highness want to do?"
"If you become Gu's woman, the problem will be solved, and it is not difficult. Gu does not need to discuss with anyone to solve this matter." Xiao Ce looked at Zhang Jixiang: "Go and gather everyone in the East Palace together.
, I have something to announce in public."
Qin Zhao was frightened when she heard this. She said to the dumbfounded Zhang Jixiang: "Eunuch Zhang, please wait a moment. Let me and Your Highness have a few more words."
"Zhang Jixiang, are you still in trouble?" Xiao Ce looked at Zhang Jixiang coldly.
Zhang Jixiang did not dare to hesitate anymore and took the order and left.
After this battle, His Highness the Crown Prince is determined to accept Qin Zhao into the East Palace, right? What His Highness just said was to summon everyone to announce this matter.
Originally, Qin Zhao had left the palace, but His Highness the Crown Prince personally took him back to the palace.
No matter how unwilling he is to admit it, the problem is not with Qin Zhao, but with His Highness the Crown Prince's unwillingness to let Qin Zhao go.
Zhang Jixiang informed the beauties in each court that His Highness the Crown Prince had something to explain. This was the first time since everyone entered the East Palace that His Highness the Crown Prince had summoned everyone.
This made everyone curious about what happened, after all, this had never been done before.
In the main hall, Qin Zhao also tried to get Xiao Ce to change his mind, but Xiao Ce was determined to take her under his wing. This was in the name of stopping Concubine Shu's idea of letting her remarry.
She was almost dry with her saliva, but Xiao Ce remained indifferent.
She suddenly had an idea and remembered Wu Xiyu's rush to the East Palace, and reminded her: "Your Highness, please don't forget that Miss Wu will enter the East Palace tomorrow. At this time, Your Highness asked me to become His Highness's woman, not to let the Emperor think that Your Highness is against the Emperor."
Is there any dissatisfaction that led to such a decision?"
Yes, this is a slap in the face of the emperor and a crime against the emperor.
"Perhaps, let me put the matter of my entering the East Palace on hold for now, and only wait until Miss Wu enters the East Palace before you can discuss my matter again?" Qin Zhao tentatively asked.
Anyway, let's take it one day at a time. People come up with solutions. Maybe Xiao Ce will change his mind tomorrow.
"What you said seems to make sense..." Xiao Ce's dark eyes were filled with a bone-chilling chill.
