Chapter 523 Smiling Fox
Just when Qin Zhao was filled with emotion, Bao Yuan came in and reported that Wu Xirou was waiting for her to see him outside.
Qin Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly: "Let her come in."
After a while, Wu Xirou entered.
Today she is wearing a lotus root pink gradient cross-collar dress. Her temperament has always been cold and noble, and this delicate pink color makes her a little more delicate as a daughter should.
Qin Zhaoduo glanced at Wu Xirou, and felt that this woman had a temperament that made people unable to take their eyes away the more they looked at her. It was the accumulation of scholarly aura, and it was also the noble style cultivated by a noble family.
At this moment, she understood why Fan Yuan could not forget Wu Xirou. Although a woman like Wu Xirou was not as beautiful as Wu Xiyu, she could easily make men desire to conquer her.
As a woman, she felt from the bottom of her heart that Wu Xirou had a good temperament. It was difficult for a woman like Wu Xirou to be annoying.
"It's been more than half a month since I entered the East Palace. I should have come to say hello to my sister long ago." Wu Xirou said and looked at Liuli.
Liuli understood and sent the gift carefully prepared by Wu Xirou to Qin Zhao.
Knowing that Qin Zhao was very curious, Baozhu stepped forward to take it, and immediately brought it to Qin Zhao and opened it.
Qin Zhao took a closer look and saw that it turned out to be a pair of jade chess pieces. Both the white chess piece and the black chess piece were made of jade. Judging from its quality, it was quite impressive.
Even the chessboard is made of a single piece of jade.
Such a gift is not only generous, but also sincere.
"Last time I had the honor to play a game of chess with my sister in the Imperial Garden, and I learned her superb chess skills, which I still remember vividly. This jade chess set is the perfect match for my sister's superb chess skills. I hope my sister will accept it." Wu Xirou said softly.
lip.
Judging from the process of her dealings with Qin Zhao, Qin Zhao has a very good character. Qin Zhao is said to be a vulgar person, but Qin Zhao can do everything and is good at everything. Qin Zhao is said to be an elegant person, but that is not entirely true.
She couldn't figure out Qin Zhao, so it took her a lot of thought to give gifts.
But she thought that this set of jade chess would be loved by both ordinary people and refined people. In addition, Qin Zhao was very good at chess, so it was a perfect gift for him.
"Sister Wu is interested. I like this thing very much." Qin Zhao also did not hide his love for jade chess: "When His Highness is free, I will definitely play a game with this jade chess."
Wu Xirou seemed unable to hear the show off in Qin Zhao's words. She smiled lightly and said, "As long as my sister likes it."
Qin Zhao looked at Baozhu: "Go and get the head and face that His Highness gave you last time. Sister Wu has a good temperament, and that set of head and face is perfect for her."
The orb left in response, and she came back with a set of priceless heads and faces.
"My sister is here to give me a gift, and I can't take advantage of her. Let's see if she likes it?" Qin Zhao smiled.
When Wu Xirou saw Qin Zhao's appearance, she thought of one word to describe Qin Zhao, that is - smiling fox.
"Sister, I'm interested. I like this set of hair and noodles very much." Wu Xirou took the hair and noodles and responded.
"I don't have anything in Wangyueju, except for money. But if you really ask me to find something as exquisite as the one my sister gave me, I really can't find it." Qin Zhao looked at the chessboard as he spoke, remembering what Ru Xi had said.
What I lacked was actual combat experience, so I immediately had an idea: "Since my sister sent me the chessboard, how about this, can I play a game with me to kill some time?"
Wu Xirou didn't expect that Qin Zhao would ask her to play chess, so naturally she couldn't refuse, so she happily agreed.
When Qin Zhao took Wu Xirou to the study, Ruxi was reading. Seeing Qin Zhao coming, she was about to salute. Qin Zhao smiled and said, "Master, there is no need to be polite."
She then introduced to Wu Xirou: "Master Zhou is the wife that His Highness the Crown Prince has found for me. He is not only as beautiful as a flower, but also talented. By the way, Master Zhou is from Yongzhou and is from the same hometown as Sister Wu. I wonder if my sister has heard of it.
The famous name of Master Zhou."
Wu Xirou saw Ruxi and was wondering who this person was. When she heard that Ruxi's surname was Zhou, she immediately understood that this was the rumored Zhou Ruxi. He was once a household name in Yongzhou and a famous name in Daqi.
If it hadn't been for family changes later, Ruxi would not have entered the palace and become Qin Zhao's wife.
All I can say is that things are unpredictable.
Before this, Wu Xirou had no idea that Ruxi was so beautiful.
When Wu Xirou saw Ruxi, she took the initiative to step forward and salute: "Xirou has met Master Zhou. When Xirou was a child, she heard of Master Zhou's name. I don't want to be lucky enough to meet you today. Xirou has been lucky all her life."
Ruxi didn't expect Zhou Xirou's attitude to be so good, and Qin Zhao was also a little surprised.
After all, Wu Xirou is already a good woman now, so there is no need to be so polite to Ruxi.
But I have to say that Wu Xirou's respectful attitude when facing Ruxi made her have a better impression of Wu Xirou.
After all, people who respect their teachers and respect their moral principles are rarely disgusted by others.
Ruxi responded graciously: "Wu Liangyuan is welcome."
"Today Wu Liangyuan gave me a jade chess set, which has not been opened yet. How about this, Master, let's play a game with Wu Liangyuan?" Qin Zhao changed his mind temporarily.
She felt that both Ruxi and Wu Xirou were from Yongzhou and both were talented girls from Yongzhou, but these two talented girls had never met each other before and had no chance to compete against each other.
If Ruxi's family had not suffered an accident, he would not have ended up in the palace.
Although she sent people to investigate the root cause of the Zhou family's defeat, after all these years, even many of the people responsible for the case have been changed, so it is not easy to find out the entire process of that year.
It was precisely because all the people involved in the case disappeared without a trace that she felt that the Zhou family's case was not simple. If it was a normal case, how could all the people involved in the case disappear without a trace and be nowhere to be found.
If she hadn't had such doubts and sent someone to investigate the case, she wouldn't have found anything fishy in it.
After all, the Zhou family's case is just like Concubine Wan's case, the truth must be found out.
Yes, if the Queen Mother was killed in her previous life, would it be related to Concubine Wan's case?
It's a pity that she hasn't been able to go back to her previous life recently and ask how the Queen Mother Xiao Ce died in her previous life.
"Liang Di has something on her mind?" Ru Xi saw Qin Zhao sitting aside with his eyes straightened, and he didn't know where his mind was going.
Qin Zhao came back to her senses and saw Ruxi and Wu Xirou looking at her. She smiled and said, "I just thought that you two are talented girls from Yongzhou, and I don't know who is better at chess."
"Of course Master Zhou's move was superior. I lost to Sister Qin last time, and Master Zhou is Sister Qin's wife, so naturally Master Zhou is more powerful." Wu Xirou felt that there was no suspense about this.
Qin Zhao heard this and looked at Ruxi: "Master, I can't lose now, otherwise this logic will not make sense."
Ruxi opened her lips calmly: "Winning and losing are common matters for military strategists. Improving your chess skills also cultivates your temperament. I think the most important thing is the fun of fighting wits and courage while playing chess."
