Chapter 485 No matter how hard your heart is, it will be melted by him
Qin Zhao also received news about Concubine Wu going to the Queen Mother to take back the rights to take charge of the Sixth Palace.
"This slave is worried that Concubine Wu will come to trouble Liangdi again." Baozhu was also worried.
Concubine Wu has always been thinking about Liang Di. Now that the emperor's body is getting better, Concubine Wu will deal with Liang Di again.
"What are you afraid of? Her good days are not long. The person I am worried about is the Queen Mother." Qin Zhao thought thoughtfully.
She only knew that the Queen Mother did not live long, but she did not know when the Queen Mother passed away. Now that the Queen Mother had taken away Concubine Wu's right to control the Sixth Palace, Concubine Wu returned without success. Could it be that Concubine Wu was against Concubine Wu because of this incident?
The Queen Mother harbored a grudge, and then had murderous intentions, causing the Queen Mother to be killed?
She really wanted to go back to her previous life, but she never got the chance, which made her anxious.
"Why is Liangdi so worried?" Baozhu couldn't understand.
"Concubine Wu has always been domineering. With the Queen Mother around, she always suppressed Concubine Wu, leaving no room for Concubine Wu to develop. Concubine Wu would have a grudge against the Queen Mother, and then..."
Qin Zhao shook his head: "Maybe I'm overthinking."
She remembered that no one mentioned the Queen Mother after she passed through in her previous life, and she certainly never asked about this person.
Now that she has been with the Queen Mother for such a long time, she knows that the Queen Mother is such a good person. If some tragedies can be avoided, she hopes that the fate of the Queen Mother can be changed.
Since she, a cannon fodder, can live well, then a big shot like the Queen Mother can live a long life.
As the emperor's health gradually improved, February also gradually approached.
On the second day of February, Qin Zhao woke up and saw Baozhu and Baoyu greeting each other with smiling faces: "Happy birthday Liangdi!"
Qin Zhao was stunned, "Today is my birthday?"
"Liangdi is so confused that she can even forget important dates like her birthday." Baoyu said angrily.
Qin Zhao sneered.
In fact, we can't blame her. She was reborn last year. How could she remember that her original birthday was today?
"My slave, I hope Liangdi will be happy every day." Baozhu said and presented the forbidden steps that he had sewn with his own hands.
Qin Zhao took it and took a look and found that the workmanship was exquisite and she liked the style. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it.
But she did not forget to joke: "Are you trying to test my etiquette by giving me this thing?"
"No. Liang Di's etiquette is very good. I didn't know what to give as a gift after thinking about it, so I made this little thing." Bao Zhu said with sincere fear.
Qin Zhao stuffed the forbidden step back into Baozhu's hand, which made Baozhu turn pale even more.
Qin Zhao saw this and smiled happily: "Silly girl, what are you doing? Put it on for me. I love this birthday gift of yours so much."
Bao Zhu was so frightened that she broke into a sweat and said angrily: "Liang Di loves to play tricks on slaves."
"You are cowardly, who is to blame?"
Qin Zhao said and stretched out his hand towards Baoyu: "What gift have you prepared? Give it to me."
Baoyu also didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "How could Liangdi take the initiative to ask for a gift like this?"
Even so, Baoyu still took out a box of exquisite pastries and handed it to Qin Zhao: "I only know how to cook, so I made this box of pastries. I hope Liangdi likes it."
Qin Zhao took out the pastries and looked at them carefully, and found that there were small characters engraved on them, to the effect that Liangdi was as beautiful as a flower, happy birthday, etc. Each pastry was engraved with small characters.
"This box of snacks looks delicious." Qin Zhao picked up a piece and stuffed it into his mouth.
Baoyu was dumbfounded: "Liangdi hasn't washed up yet."
"It's not too late to wash after eating." Qin Zhao finished one piece and then another, which made Baoyu amused.
Afterwards, Baoping and Baoyuan also presented gifts that they had prepared. Qin Zhao accepted them one by one and felt that this eighteenth birthday was a very happy one.
It was almost lunch time, and Xiao Ce, a busy man, appeared with a bowl of longevity noodles in his hand and handed it to Qin Zhao.
The moment he saw Changshou's face, Qin Zhao burst into tears.
She didn't know how many years it had been since she had eaten longevity noodles, and the longevity noodles this time were delivered to her by Xiao Ce, so they had an even different meaning.
"This is longevity noodles made by His Royal Highness himself." Baoyu said to Qin Zhao impatiently.
Qin Zhao was stunned: "Your Highness knows how to cook?"
"No, but it's not difficult. Let Baoyu teach you how to do it. Try it." Xiao Ce said and took a seat.
Qin Zhao looked at the very beautiful longevity noodles, tried to take a bite, and found that it tasted pretty good.
"Isn't this the first time His Highness has cooked?" Qin Zhao asked after taking another bite.
"This is the first time, and I will make it for you every year on your birthday from now on." Xiao Ce said, touching Qin Zhao's head.
Qin Zhao felt that this was probably the nicest thing she could say.
"His Royal Highness can be frustrating sometimes. He is excellent in all aspects, even in cooking." Qin Zhao smiled as he spoke: "It just so happens that someone so good is my man."
Xiao Ce saw that she was eating happily and was a little worried that she was pretending.
He took a taste and found it acceptable.
"It's my birthday today, Your Highness, did you just send me away with a bowl of longevity noodles?" Qin Zhao quickly ate and drank, and wanted a more practical birthday gift.
Xiao Ce then took the dragon jade from his waist and handed it to Qin Zhao: "Here you go."
Qin Zhao took the dragon jade and remembered that he had taken it back several times: "Is it possible that you gave it to me today and your highness will take it back another day?"
He had a criminal record and couldn't blame her for thinking this way.
Xiao Ce smiled: "If I give it to you this time, it belongs to you."
Qin Zhao thought this thing was valuable, so he immediately found a rope to string it up and put it around his neck.
When Xiao Ce saw her happy, the corners of his lips rose.
"I will take you out of the palace to play tonight." Then I heard Xiao Ce say again.
Qin Zhao felt that Xiao Ce in front of him was not normal.
Usually when she wanted to leave the palace, he always refused with various reasons, but now he took the initiative to take her out of the palace.
"I will go back to the main hall to do some business first. I will take you out of the palace when I am done. You will take a nap after eating." Xiao Ce said and stood up.
Qin Zhao put down his bowl and chopsticks and said to his back: "Your Highness hasn't had lunch yet."
"I'll go back to the main hall for dinner later." Xiao Ce said and left.
Qin Zhao watched Xiao Ce go away.
She knew how busy he was in normal times, and sometimes he didn't have enough time to eat at regular intervals. Today he came over specially to order a bowl of longevity noodles for her, and he might not even eat when he returned to the main hall.
He was in such a hurry because he wanted to take her out of the palace for a walk at night, right?
He was obviously such a cold man, but he gave all his passion to her. Sometimes she felt that no matter how hard her heart was, he would melt it away.
"Why is Liangdi unhappy?" Baoyu looked a little sad when he saw Qin Zhao silently eating noodles.
"I was thinking, if His Highness cooks often in the future, wouldn't you, Baoyu, be unemployed?" Qin Zhao looked at Baoyu and said seriously.
Baoyu was dumbfounded: "Isn't that the case?"
