Xiao Yi looked at Qin Zhao who was furious, with an evil and sycophantic smile on his lips: "The emperor's sister-in-law is also very beautiful when she is angry."
Of course he wants to live, but he is also cowardly.
As long as he thought that Xiao Ce was no longer an eyesore, he wanted to find an opportunity to get close to Qin Zhao.
This is probably the so-called death under peonies, and being a ghost is also romantic.
Qin Zhao clenched his fists and told himself to calm down, there was no need to be as knowledgeable as Xiao Yi.
"Qin Zhao, can I give you a hug?" Xiao Yi's voice reached Qin Zhao's ears.
In all these years, he has never been able to hug her once when she was awake. The only time was on her birthday last year, when he hugged her when she was unconscious.
Without waiting for Qin Zhao to reply, Xiao Yi suddenly rushed towards Qin Zhao.
This time Qin Zhao was well prepared. She focused her right palm, and the moment Xiao Yi approached her, she struck Xiao Yi in the chest with one palm.
Xiao Yi only thought that she was showing off her fists and embroidered legs, and did not shy away from him, but he didn't expect Qin Zhao's palm to knock him to the ground.
Xiao Yi didn't expect Qin Zhao to be so strong. He sat on the ground in shock, his chest hurting so much, and watched Qin Zhao leave the dormitory.
It took him a while to struggle up, but he obviously suffered internal injuries. He tugged at the corners of his lips, but he couldn't help but laugh.
He has placed so many people in the palace, why doesn't anyone know that Qin Zhao has internal power? If he hadn't personally experienced the palm just now, he wouldn't have known that this delicate-looking woman actually had such a hand.
Qin Zhao came out of the dormitory, and when he saw the orb and vase still asleep outside, he knew that Xiao Yi had secretly poisoned the incense.
She stepped forward and woke them up. The two of them were still in a daze and looked confused.
At this time, Xiao Yi came out clutching his chest. Baozhu and Baoping were immediately frightened, and their chaotic consciousness immediately became clear.
They guarded Qin Zhao nervously, fearing that Xiao Yi would attack Qin Zhao.
"Prince An is injured. It's better to go back to the palace to recover for a few days." Qin Zhao said this coldly and led the orb and vase away.
Xiao Yi, however, had other plans and called for the imperial doctor.
The imperial doctor's diagnosis was that he had suffered internal injuries and needed to be nursed back to health. After hearing this, Xiao Yi said: "Brother Huang is not in the palace, and I have been injured again. Just in case, I am staying in the palace these days.
I won’t leave the palace until my injuries are healed.”
The imperial doctor's heart trembled when he heard this, and he didn't understand why Xiao Yi said this to him.
Whether King An is staying in the palace or not has nothing to do with him as a doctor, right?
The other people serving in the Yangxin Hall had different thoughts. After all, everyone could see that His Highness Prince An had evil intentions towards the Queen.
But the emperor was not in the palace, and there was no one to discipline King An. No matter what, King An was still his master, and they were just slaves.
How can a slave disobey his master?
King An also made a good excuse, saying that he wanted to recuperate in the palace, even though everyone knew that it was not etiquette for King An to stay in the palace overnight, especially in this palace of nourishing the heart.
Xiao Yi's words naturally reached Qin Zhao's ears.
She knew she couldn't drive away Xiao Yi, but she had a way to deal with Xiao Yi.
No matter how shameless Xiao Yi is, isn't there still the Empress Dowager in this palace?
Now she can delay it for one day, and then get through the current predicament.
While the imperial doctor was treating Xiao Yi, Qin Zhao took Xiao Atom and his attendants to Shoukang Palace, intending to avoid the limelight there.
At this juncture, it seems that only the Empress Dowager, an elder, can take care of Xiao Yi.
When the Queen Mother saw Qin Zhao and Xiao Atom coming, she was so happy that she couldn't help but smile. She didn't know Xiao Yi was in the palace yet.
When it was almost time to have dinner, Xiao Yi suddenly appeared in Shoukang Palace. He said he had angina pectoris and was worried about the Empress Dowager, so he came to accompany the Empress Dowager to have dinner.
How could a person like the Empress Dowager not know that Xiao Yi was coming for Qin Zhao, but she could not point this out and could only pretend to be confused.
"The imperial brother is not in the palace, so the imperial grandmother needs to take care of herself." Xiao Yi said, while serving food to the empress dowager, looking filial and harmless.
After providing food for the Empress Dowager, he naturally provided food for Qin Zhao again.
However, Qin Zhao put aside the dishes Xiao Yi brought over and had no intention of eating them.
Xiao Yi seemed not to have seen this scene, and continued to feed Qin Zhao: "The emperor's sister-in-law is pregnant with the emperor's heir, so she needs to eat more."
Qin Zhao was too lazy to answer and did not look at Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi was still aching from where Qin Zhao had hit him. Seeing that Qin Zhao didn't take him seriously, he smiled at the corners of his eyes and continued chatting with the Empress Dowager as if nothing had happened.
Qin Zhao was in the background throughout the whole process, but Xiao Yi's glances from time to time made her feel uncomfortable.
After dinner, Qin Zhao told the Empress Dowager his plan: "Now that the two countries are at war, I want to pray for the emperor and the generals of Qi. I plan to stay in the small Buddhist hall for the next two days. Grandma, is that okay?"
"
"Girl Zhao, you are serious. The Ai family has asked people to clean up the small Buddhist hall." The Empress Dowager and Qin Zhao's eyes met.
She knew that Qin Zhao wanted her to help rescue him, and Qin Zhao also knew that the Empress Dowager was helping her deal with Xiao Yi's troubles.
"Grandma Huang, I also want to pray in the small Buddhist hall with my sister-in-law." Xiao Yi said after a moment of silence.
"Didn't you mean you have angina? Since you are feeling unwell, you should take a good rest, and there is nothing better than working hard." The Queen Mother said and issued an eviction order: "Come here, Prince An is not feeling well. Send Prince An back to rest."
Xiao Yi looked at Qin Zhao, then at the empress dowager who was smiling sternly, and suddenly smiled: "Yes, the empress dowager should rest early, and the grandson will leave."
Before leaving, he stared at Qin Zhao's back for a while.
When the Queen Mother saw this scene, she secretly shook her head.
If she had known that Xiao Ce suddenly left the palace, she should not have put Xiao Yi back into the palace.
On the surface, Xiao Yi looked respectful to her, but in fact he was disobedient. Now she could only hope that Xiao Ce could return to the palace as soon as possible.
At the same time, there was a border between Da Yuezhi and Da Qi.
Zhang Jixiang saw that it was late at night and Xiao Ce was still looking at the map, so he stepped forward and persuaded: "It's getting late, the emperor should make arrangements earlier."
Xiao Ce took a sip of tea, his eyes never leaving the map.
He has been planning this battle since he recovered his memories of his previous life. He was worried that Qin Zhao would be alone in the palace and needed to end this battle in the shortest possible time.
Because he has memories of his past life, he must make this trip himself.
Originally he planned to lead the expedition himself, but for Qin Zhao's sake, he planned to hand over the battle to Wu Zhenyu.
Wu Zhenyu is a very good general with great military exploits. What he has to do is to analyze thoroughly how to win this battle cleanly and neatly.
If this battle can force the Dayue clan to move westward, the Dayue clan will not be able to cause any trouble in the next few decades. This is the fundamental reason why he must make this trip in person.
Not only did he want to win Seth, but he also wanted to severely damage the Dayue clan and force the Dayue clan to move westward.
