Chapter 286 Offended the Queen Mother too
In this way, Qin Zhao was dragged into the dormitory by the two girls, and changed his clothes, a regular hairstyle, and finally put on a little makeup.
Because Qin Zhao had a good foundation, he changed his clothes casually and became a delicate and beautiful lady again.
Qin Zhao followed Nanny Li out of Wangyue Residence, slumping her shoulders as she walked.
Seeing Qin Zhao's dejected look, Grandma Li couldn't help but take a second look: "Isn't Liangdi unhappy?"
"There is nothing worth being happy about. Once you enter this deep palace with red walls, you will never be able to get out in this life." Qin Zhao said and sighed: "My life is over here."
"Since you know you can't get out, shouldn't you work harder and strive for a better future?" Grandma Li probed without leaving any trace.
The last time I saw Qin Liangdi, she was not so decadent. Is it related to the neglect of His Highness the Crown Prince?
"It's not sweet to be strong. What's the point of working hard? I'll work harder, because I was an abandoned wife, and climbing to Liangdi's position will only reach the ceiling. It's really sad to think that my life has come to an end now."
Qin Zhao said and sighed softly.
Grandma Li's lips were slightly curved. Qin Liangdi was a transparent person and what she said made sense.
"Maybe not necessarily." Nanny Li looked at Qin Zhao's belly with a pointed look.
Qin Zhao did not hear the underlying meaning of what Nanny Li said. What she was thinking was that her relationship with Xiao Ce had dropped to a freezing point, and this was all her fault.
But at that point in time, it wasn't her temperament not to ask that question.
When he arrived at Cihe Palace, Qin Zhao bowed to the Queen Mother in a polite manner. But compared to the previous dignified manner, this time he was a little more casual.
The Queen Mother saw the change in her and looked at Nanny Li. Nanny Li said to the Queen Mother: "Qin Liangdi seems to have been hit by something."
When the Queen Mother heard this, she became interested. She looked at Qin Zhao who was standing aside in a daze and asked, "I heard that you have been ignored by the prince recently?"
Qin Zhao thought to himself, isn't this a fact known to the whole world? Why should he ask her personally?
"I have offended His Highness the Crown Prince, so it is normal for me to be ignored by His Highness." Qin Zhao answered truthfully.
Even if the Queen Mother came to embarrass her, Xiao Ce would not pay attention to her, which would be a waste of efforts.
"What did you do to offend His Royal Highness?" The Queen Mother was really curious.
Qin Zhao thought of what happened that day and shook her head: "The Queen Mother will not want to know."
If she really wanted to mention Princess Yonghe, it would be tantamount to offending the Queen Mother, and then all the prominent figures in the palace would be offended by her.
Although the Queen Mother doesn't like to see her now, there is still room for her to breathe, right?
"If you don't tell me, how do you know that the Ai family doesn't want to know?" the Queen Mother asked.
Qin Zhao said nothing.
The Queen Mother suddenly shouted in a deep voice: "What on earth did you say to make the Crown Prince unhappy? Say it! This is an order."
Qin Zhao looked at the Queen Mother and met her stern eyes.
She suddenly felt relieved. Anyway, she couldn't hide the fact that she had met Princess Yonghe that day from the Queen Mother, so she might as well tell the truth.
"Half a month ago, I bumped into Princess Yonghe in the Imperial Garden." As Qin Zhao spoke, he saw the Queen Mother's face darken.
However, this did not stop her from continuing to finish the story: "Later, His Royal Highness came to Wangyue Residence, and I thought of Princess Yonghe, so I asked His Highness three questions. I asked Your Highness, when was the last time I saw Princess Yonghe;
I also asked, when was the last time His Highness the Crown Prince celebrated Princess Yonghe’s birthday; and finally, during the Chinese New Year, did His Highness prepare any gifts for Princess Yonghe.”
Not only did the Queen Mother's complexion change, but Grandma Li's complexion also changed.
The room suddenly became quiet.
Qin Zhao stopped talking. She knew that the Queen Mother did not like Princess Yonghe. The three questions she asked Xiao Ce could also be asked to the Queen Mother.
She was sure that the Queen Mother, like Xiao Ce, had ignored Princess Yonghe all these years and allowed Princess Yonghe to fend for herself.
One of them is Princess Yonghe's brother, and the other is Princess Yonghe's grandmother, but they have not fulfilled their responsibilities as relatives to Princess Yonghe.
There was a dead silence in the palace, and Qin Zhao waited for a while before saying: "If you have no other instructions, I will retire."
This time she really offended the Queen Mother.
"What did the prince say?" the queen mother suddenly asked.
"I'm telling the truth. The last time I saw Princess Yonghe was during the Chinese New Year. I never celebrated Princess Yonghe's birthday, nor did I prepare a birthday gift for Princess Yonghe during the Chinese New Year. I told you at that time that it turned out that Your Highness did not treat Yonghe
The princess is treated as a sister——"
"Presumptuous!!" The Queen Mother shouted angrily with a gloomy face.
Qin Zhao lowered his head and replied in a low voice: "I just told the truth."
Not only did Xiao Ce not regard Princess Yonghe as his sister, the Queen Mother also did not regard Princess Yonghe as her granddaughter.
What she just said was a disguised slap in the face of the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother should hate her to death, right?
"Step back." The Queen Mother suddenly felt powerless.
The reason why the prince ignored Qin Liangdi was that this woman was too courageous and dared to say anything without knowing the importance.
"Yes." Seeing that he could leave, Qin Zhao respectfully retreated.
Until she walked far away, she heard a strange noise coming from the palace. It was most likely that the Queen Mother was so angry that she threw a set of expensive porcelain.
It was what the Queen Mother insisted on asking, not what she wanted to say.
"Liang Di is really audacious and dares to say anything. If the Queen Mother locks up Liang Di in a rage, what will Liang Di do?" Baozhu scolded Qin Zhao as soon as he left the Cihe Palace.
"I had to say it because the Queen Mother forced me to do so." Qin Zhao chuckled.
"Based on my understanding of Liang Di, I can easily fool Liang Di into anything she doesn't want to say. The reason why I just answered truthfully is because I want to spite the Queen Mother." Baozhu could see through Qin Zhao's thoughts at a glance.
Qin Zhao glanced at the orb and replied quietly: "I really want to express my gratitude to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother is the reason why Princess Yonghe is ignored by everyone in the royal family."
Bao Zhu had known this, but he was still worried about his master.
"Liang Di needs to know that the Empress Dowager is already biased against Liang Di, and Liang Di brought Princess Yonghe to the table to speak out. I'm afraid the Empress Dowager will dislike Liang Di even more in the future." Baozhu was slightly worried.
"I don't want to live with the Queen Mother. If she doesn't like me, I have nothing to lose. Let's not talk about it anymore. Let's go back to the East Palace. It's still safe there." Qin Zhao's eyes flashed slightly.
The Queen Mother has been back in the palace for more than half a month, and Concubine Wu has not yet been released from the cold palace. Does this mean that the Queen Mother does not want to support Concubine Wu?
Even so, don't be careless. Concubine Wu will not give up easily and will definitely find a way to get out of the cold palace.
When Qin Zhao returned to Wangyue Residence, he found that Zhang Jixiang had arrived.
"My slave, I would like to pay my respects to Liangdi." As soon as Zhang Jixiang saw Qin Zhao, his face was filled with smiles and he stepped forward to say hello.
