Chapter 277: Your Highness, please exercise some restraint.
The Queen Mother returned to the palace for several days, and there was no reason why she did not know that Wu Xiyu was under grounding. She knew clearly that Wu Xiyu was under grounding, but she still came to visit Wu Xiyu. The Queen Mother clearly meant to support Wu Xiyu.
At this time, Xiao Ce also heard the news and rushed over to greet the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother spared him the courtesy and said kindly: "Ah Ce is here just in time. How about accompanying the Ai family to Wangqiu Pavilion to see Sister Xi?"
Xiao Ce couldn't refuse the Queen Mother's proposal in front of so many people, so he responded respectfully: "Wangqiu Pavilion is over here. My grandson will send the Queen Mother there."
The Queen Mother was very satisfied with Xiao Ce's answer.
So, accompanied by Xiao Ce, the Queen Mother entered Wangqiu Pavilion.
After that, the Queen Mother felt that Wu Xiyu's confinement to Wangqiu Pavilion all day long was not beneficial to her health, so she proposed to go out of Wangqiu Pavilion for a walk. This walk, of course, left Wangqiu Pavilion, so there was no such thing as confinement.
The Empress Dowager's move was quite clever. It did not require the consent of Xiao Ce, the crown prince, and it could lift Wu Xiyu's grounding. It also made everyone in the East Palace, including Qin Zhao, see one thing clearly. Even if Concubine Wu was beaten,
Even in the cold palace, Wu Xiyu still had the support of the Queen Mother.
"I'm still hot when I'm old." Even Qin Zhao couldn't help but admire her from the bottom of his heart.
Only someone like the Queen Mother is called a master in palace fighting.
Because of the support of the Empress Dowager, Wu Xiyu lifted the ban in a high-profile manner. The Empress Dowager even left Xiao Ce to have lunch with her, an old woman, in Wangqiu Pavilion. Xiao Ce could not refuse. Refusal would be disloyal, unjust and unfilial.
Xiao Ce did his duty, accompanying the Queen Mother after lunch and chatting with her for nearly half an hour. He did not return to the main hall until the Queen Mother left the East Palace.
Wu Xiyu also followed up in the main hall. When many people saw this scene, they felt that Wu Xiyu was going to rise to power again.
When no one was around, Wu Xiyu knelt down in front of Xiao Ce: "I know that I was wrong, and I don't dare to do the same thing again in the future. Can Your Highness forgive me?"
With tears in her beautiful eyes, she looked at Xiao Ce pitifully. Xiao Ce looked at her for a moment, then opened his lips calmly: "Get up, you can take care of yourself from now on."
Wu Xiyu cried with joy. She wiped away her tears and said softly: "Can I stay in the main hall with Your Highness?"
"I'm very busy." Xiao Ce said and looked at Zhang Jixiang.
Zhang Jixiang understood, went to Wu Xiyu and said, "I send Liangyuan back to Qiuge Pavilion."
Wu Xiyu responded obediently and returned to Wangqiu Pavilion under the escort of Zhang Jixiang.
After Zhang Jixiang left, she swept away her previous pitiful demeanor, and a bright smile appeared on her lips: "It's true as mama said, the Queen Mother's return to the palace will be my turning point."
"With the Empress Dowager as a backer, even His Highness the Crown Prince has some scruples. However, Liang Yuan still needs to be more steady and well-behaved in front of His Highness. Qin Liangdi only knows how to pretend, so she is valued by His Highness." When Qin Zhao was mentioned, Grandma Zhong sounded very disdainful.
.
Even the imperial concubine suffered losses at the hands of Qin Liangdi, which shows that Qin Liangdi is very scheming.
In addition, His Highness the Crown Prince is interested in her, so Liangyuan still needs to work hard if she wants to get benefits from Qin Liangdi.
"Since I have been lifted from the ground, of course I have to go to Wangyueju and walk around a lot so that Sister Qin will remember me." Wu Xiyu smiled: "That's it for today. I'll go find Sister Qin tomorrow."
That night, Qin Zhao went to the main hall.
She didn't want to go, but Zhang Jixiang came to invite her, could she still pretend not to see Xiao Ce?
If she wanted to be jealous, and it was just when Wu Xiyu was lifted from confinement, if she came to the main hall at this juncture, everyone would think that she was competing for favor.
So when she saw Xiao Ce, she felt a little resentful: "His Highness is just fine. There are so many beauties throwing themselves into his arms. Even my concubines have learned how to fight for favor. Your Highness should be the happiest, right?"
He must really enjoy this feeling of being sought after.
Xiao Ce's lips curved slightly: "It would be great if you really know how to win favor."
But he knew that if he wanted this girl to compete for his favor, the sun would not rise in the west.
"Okay, okay, what your highness said makes sense. From today on, I will be jealous every day. Is this satisfactory to your highness?" Qin Zhao said angrily.
"You can't force this kind of thing. It's boring to force it." Xiao Ce glanced at the documents in front of him and said to Qin Zhao: "Go and wait on the couch first. I'll come find you when I'm done."
With her in front of him, he couldn't concentrate on anything.
Qin Zhao looked sideways when he heard Xiao Ce's words.
Why can Prince Xiao still have such a righteous expression when he says these ambiguous words?
Xiao Ce met Qin Zhao's bright eyes: "What are you still doing?"
Qin Zhao touched his nose boredly and said, "Yes, I will go to the couch and wait for His Highness."
After saying that, she turned around and walked away quickly.
Xiao Ce looked at her back, shook his head and laughed.
This damn girl can please him at any time.
Qiu Shui, who was waiting nearby, saw the smile on Xiao Ce's face and thought that His Highness is really good-looking. Such a good-looking person should smile more.
It's a pity that she can only be His Highness's maid. It would be great if she could become His Highness's wife.
But then she thought about it, there were so many beauties in the East Palace, but none of them could sleep with her, and His Highness Wu Liangyuan was not as beautiful as her. She suddenly felt that it was her blessing to be His Highness's personal attendant.
After Qin Zhao went to the dormitory, after reading the ending of a story, he forgot about Xiao Ce, a busy man, and quickly fell asleep.
She was sleeping soundly, but felt difficulty breathing. When she opened her sleepy eyes and found that Xiao Ce was kissing her, she resisted and pushed.
But it turns out that the man is stronger than she thought. The more she struggled, the harder he kissed her. In desperation, she gave up resistance...
I don't know if Xiao Ce has changed or if Xiao Ce has nowhere to vent his energy. He actually asked for water three times. She was so tired that she almost died, but he still looked energetic.
Later, she fell asleep too tired and got up again before dawn, planning to go back to Wangyue Residence.
Xiao Ce also had to go to court at about that time. Seeing her getting up so early, he said softly: "You can go back later."
Qin Zhao hummed: "I don't want to make anyone jealous, so it's better to go back as soon as possible."
She was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes. Working so hard had indeed fed Xiao Ce, but she was tired, and she felt like a thief. She felt uncomfortable no matter what she thought about it.
Xiao Ce thought what she said made sense: "Next time, go to Wangyue Residence alone, so that you can sleep longer."
Qin Zhao yawned loudly and was too tired to speak.
Before leaving, she glared at Xiao Ce and said what she wanted to say last night: "I'd better advise Your Highness to exercise some restraint."
Xiao Ce looked indifferent and did not want to talk to Qin Zhao.
This girl is fragile herself, why should she blame him for not knowing how to control herself?
Qin Zhao was so angry that he kicked Xiao Ce and walked away quickly.
"Jixiang, you go and see her off -" Xiao Ce paused and then quickly changed his mind: "That's all, it will only cause trouble for her if people see her."
