Chapter 1376 I don’t want to renew my relationship with him
"Are you happy today?" Xiao Ce saw the woman running towards him and only saw her bright smile.
If he hasn't seen her for a day, won't she feel lost?
"I'm very happy." Qin Zhao noticed his gaffe and immediately stopped smiling, feeling that women should be more reserved.
"Did you miss me?" Xiao Ce asked naturally.
Qin Zhao shook his head like a rattle: "No."
I was thinking about it when I got up in the morning, but then I was too busy and had no time to think about it. Even if I wanted to, I couldn't answer it truthfully, so as not to put a psychological burden on him.
She thinks she is quite considerate.
Xiao Ce touched her head, feeling a little depressed.
"I specially asked Baoyu to cook delicious dishes, which are all the emperor's favorite." Qin Zhao did not notice the change in Xiao Ce's mood, and asked for credit as if he was being honest.
"Yeah." Xiao Ce was not in a high mood.
This time Qin Zhao noticed something strange and asked curiously: "Is the emperor encountering something troublesome?"
Xiao Ce's eyes were heavy and he looked at Qin Zhao for a while before saying, "It doesn't matter, I can handle it."
It's just that courtiers put pressure on him every day to fill the harem, which makes him tired. Apart from this matter, everything else is under his control.
These people suggested that he expand his harem simply because he only had one son, so these ministers chanted sutras for him every day.
His only worry was that Qin Zhao would hear rumors and it would affect her mood.
"If the emperor has anything bothering you, you can tell me. Maybe I can help the emperor find a solution." Qin Zhao showed a warm smile to Xiao Ce.
Xiao Ce pinched her soft cheeks: "When I'm not with you, if you want to go out, find more people to accompany you. I heard that you stayed in Kunning Palace all day today, why don't you go out for a walk?"
"I have something to do, so how can I go out and play every day? Don't worry, Your Majesty, I won't wrong you. I will have fun by myself when I'm bored." Qin Zhao immediately understood Xiao Ce's worry.
"I will spend more time with you." Xiao Ce said.
Qin Zhao was stunned for a moment before saying: "I am not a child, and I don't need the emperor to take time to play with me."
Is it because she always came to him in the past life that he emphasized this point? Or does he think she is too playful?
"I am worried that the palace will be boring and your life will be too boring. Since I am your husband, I naturally want to spend more time with you." Xiao Ce said seriously.
The biggest regret in his previous life was that he was always busy and had very little time to spend with her.
"How can the palace be boring? I go to one place in the palace every day, and it will take me a month to visit the entire palace, right?" Qin Zhao approached Xiao Ce and said solemnly: "You can live a colorful life in the harem, too.
Your Majesty, don’t worry about my concubine’s unhappiness.”
Xiao Ce was lost for a moment and nodded slightly.
If the palace wasn't boring, why would she always want to leave the palace? In the past, he was arrogant and arrogant, thinking that he was the emperor, and would not let her leave the palace, so she would stay with him all her life.
Later he realized how wrong he was.
If she deliberately wanted to leave the palace, there were many ways. He was just afraid that one day she would get tired of this place, leave suddenly, and never come back.
During dinner, Xiao Ce was very quiet.
Qin Zhao was busy taking care of Xiao Atom and didn't pay much attention to Xiao Ce's mood.
"Why did you want to leave the palace before?" Xiao Ce asked a question without warning.
Qin Zhao looked questioning: "What?"
She faced Xiao Ce's peaceful face, as if he just asked an insignificant question.
"You wanted to leave the palace before. Apart from quarreling with me and me making you angry, were there other reasons?" Xiao Ce's voice was light and emotionless.
Qin Zhao thought about it carefully and then said: "Didn't I have a quarrel with the emperor at that time? How can I take what I said in a rage so seriously?"
She remembered that the biggest quarrel was because of the substitute incident, and she slapped Xiao Ce in anger.
But that incident is over, after all, it was said in anger.
"I remember that during the East Palace period, you once left the palace. If I hadn't insisted on taking you back to the palace, you would have left." Xiao Ce thought of those past events, still feeling frightened.
Qin Zhao raised his head and looked at Xiao Ce, still unable to see Xiao Ce's intention in asking this matter.
So many years have passed, why would he ask?
The little atomic man was a big kid, and he found that the atmosphere between his parents was not right, so he quietly left the scene.
Xiao Ce saw the child leaving from the corner of his eye. He didn't say anything. His eyes were fixed on Qin Zhao's face: "Is it difficult to answer my question?"
Qin Zhao's beautiful eyes rolled around before she curved her lips and smiled: "Originally, I came to the palace to recuperate from illness. When I recovered from my illness, I naturally had to keep my promise and leave..."
Under Xiao Ce's gaze, the rest of her words were incomplete, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared.
She knew what Xiao Ce was concerned about.
He knew that she remembered everything in her previous life, even when they first met. They clearly had a relationship in their previous life, but she still chose to leave the palace.
She made this choice simply because she didn't want to be involved with him anymore.
He is so smart, how could he not guess her thoughts?
"If I hadn't chased you out of the palace at that time, you and I would have stayed together until then." Xiao Ce's voice was a little heavy.
So at that time, Qin Zhao didn't want to renew their relationship with him. Even for a long time later, when she followed him without any name or status, she was not unwilling or angry. Ultimately, it was because she didn't care about him.
Qin Zhao was not used to such a heavy atmosphere, so she smoothed things over and said, "Didn't the emperor chase me out of the palace? This shows that the concubine and the emperor have a deep bond, and they can beheaded endlessly."
Xiao Ce tugged at the corners of his lips, unable to deceive himself.
She didn't want the fate of this life at the beginning. Perhaps she had already let go of him after his death in the previous life.
The moment he died on the battlefield in his previous life, he saw Qin Zhao appearing in front of him. At that time, he thought that he and Qin Zhao were still destined to live forever, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Who knows that she really doesn't want to renew her relationship with him.
"Well, it can't be broken even if it can't be cut off." Xiao Ce said in a deep voice, not sure if he was trying to convince himself.
Fortunately, he was not that stupid in this life and chased her out of the palace and brought her back to the palace in time.
No matter what happened in the past, she is now his queen and the mother of his son, and that is enough.
"Originally, we were destined to be married in the past life." Qin Zhao replied with a smile, feeling a little guilty for no reason.
She didn't think it was anything at first, but Xiao Ce also had memories of his past life, which made it a bit embarrassing.
At that time, she really didn't want to have an emotional entanglement with Xiao Ce anymore. She even felt that relationships were a very tiring thing, and she didn't want to repeat the same mistakes of her previous life.
She had flinched more than once and wanted to leave the palace more than once. It was because she had no confidence in their future.
At this moment, she finally understood why Xiao Ce suddenly asked her this question.
Maybe Xiao Ce sees it more clearly than she does, right?
