Chapter 607 Relatively Speechless
Qin Zhao did not enter the house, but stood near the house. He saw the windows were brightly lit, the children's laughter came from the house, and the woman and the old man were doing needlework and talking to themselves.
This shows that after that battle, the family gradually got better, the old man's illness also recovered, and everything was developing in a good direction.
I still remember that on the night of her birthday, the entire family was almost destroyed, but they survived the most difficult moment.
They could even overcome the difficulties of life and death, so why should she worry about not being able to leave the palace easily?
There are too many people in this world who are not as happy as she is. She is considered a very lucky one and there is absolutely no need to blame others.
When Xiao Ce rushed over, he saw Qin Zhao's back.
He was in a very complicated mood, and suddenly he didn't dare to approach her.
What she longed for was a normal and warm daily life, and he could not satisfy her wish. Even the frustration and humiliation she suffered were given by him and his mother.
There was very little he could give her...
Qin Zhao knew Xiao Ce was coming, so she turned back to look at him.
Xiao Ce looked at her from afar, and the two of them were speechless.
"They are living well." Qin Zhao was the first to break the silence.
This shows that she did not save this family in vain last time.
Xiao Ce echoed: "They will get better and better in the future. It's night, come back to the palace with me."
He stepped forward and firmly took Qin Zhao's hand.
Qin Zhaocai struggled, but he held him tightly: "Be obedient!"
Qin Zhao said: "But..."
"It's nothing!" Xiao Ce interrupted Qin Zhao: "I told you to come back to the palace with me."
"The Emperor is always like this and doesn't want to think about the current situation. Wouldn't it be good for me to leave the palace?"
"Qin Zhao, can you shut up?!" Xiao Ce simply took action and picked up Qin Zhao.
Qin Zhao couldn't dodge, so he caught him and took him into the carriage.
After that, Xiao Ce did not give Qin Zhao a chance to refuse, and Qin Zhao was forcibly taken back to the palace.
On the way back to the palace, Xiao Ce learned the whole story and immediately issued an order to kill all the guards who had previously blocked Qin Zhao from entering the East Palace.
Seeing this, Qin Zhao hurriedly stopped him: "Today is the first day of the emperor's accession to the throne. It is unlucky to see blood."
Under Xiao Ce's glare, she added: "Let's deal with any people and matters after today."
Xiao Ce nodded in agreement, and then took Qin Zhao into the Yangxin Hall: "You wait here, don't go anywhere, I will go to the Hall of Supreme Harmony and then come back."
Qin Zhao replied: "I have entered this place, where else can I go?"
There were guards outside the Yangxin Hall, and a weak woman like her couldn't fly away.
Xiao Ce touched her head and walked away quickly.
In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the new emperor had gone and never returned, which made everyone uninterested in enjoying the singing and dancing. If they had not known that there were no obstacles to the new emperor's accession to the throne, they would have thought that something had happened in the palace.
In fact, before the new emperor came to the throne, there was a wave of people who were ready to take action. They were all the staff of the King of Chu. The new emperor directly dealt with some of them, while the other group of people were disabled.
The reason why the new emperor was so vicious was because he was attacked by a murderer when he was marrying Princess Yonghe. That was the killer sent by the King of Chu.
The new emperor saw through this and killed the chicken to scare the monkeys. After that, he took the King of Chu's retreat and went to Chuzhou to take away the King of Chu's beloved son to threaten the King of Chu.
Therefore, the King of Chu this time remained obedient and did not dare to take any action before the new emperor came to the throne.
Officials who knew the inside story were impressed by the new emperor's skillful handling of affairs, which allowed the power of the Daqi royal family to be transferred smoothly without causing turmoil.
But after all, the new emperor was young, full of blood, unambiguous on important matters, but he seemed to be very affectionate when facing women, and he left for Qin Zhao and never came back.
Just when everyone was speculating that the new emperor left the banquet hall for Qin Zhao, the emperor finally came back, sat on the throne, and continued to enjoy the singing and dancing, as if nothing had happened before he left for more than half an hour.
Wu Xirou was sitting not far away. When she saw Xiao Ce coming back and sitting calmly on the throne, she knew that Qin Zhao had nothing else to do.
I don’t know where Qin Zhao is now.
Speaking of the big move prepared by Queen Mother Guo today, she was surprised and delighted. She originally thought that depending on how favored Qin Zhao was, she might become one of the four concubines, or she might be directly named a noble concubine.
Because suddenly Empress Dowager Guo took out her trump card and issued the late emperor's edict. This time only Qin Zhao was left without a title. He stayed in the palace with no name and no status. I'm afraid Qin Zhao was embarrassed at the time, right?
She was once so favored, but today she suffered a great humiliation in the Fengtian Palace. It was Qin Zhao who would not have the shame to continue to stay in the palace.
Presumably because of this, it was not possible to leave the palace and run away. This may be the reason why Xiao Ce suddenly left the meeting.
Thinking of this, she looked towards where Queen Mother Guo was.
This Empress Dowager Guo is a capable person. She has endured it for twenty years. Today, when Xiao Ce ascended the throne, she suddenly exerted her strength and "slapped" Qin Zhao in public. Not everyone has such ability, even the concubine and aunt.
There may not be such a plan.
Only now did she realize that Queen Mother Guo was so powerful and was her best helper.
With Empress Dowager Guo around, it would be difficult for Qin Zhao to cause trouble in Xiao Ce's harem.
Over there, Xiao Ce just sat down, and Queen Mother Guo asked: "Today is the first day of the emperor's accession to the throne. He has also hosted a banquet for all civil and military officials, and everyone is celebrating. Where did the emperor go on such a big day?"
Xiao Ce did not look directly at Queen Mother Guo, but took a slow sip of tea.
Seeing his leisurely and contented look, Queen Mother Guo was furious.
But she also knew that the emperor was a stubborn child and very opinionated. She did not want the relationship between mother and son to become too tense, so she asked for a posthumous edict before the emperor died, in order to check and balance Qin Zhao to prevent Qin Zhao from becoming a
The second concubine Wu brought trouble to the palace.
It would be best if Qin Zhao knew himself and left the palace.
Originally, she wanted the late emperor to execute Qin Zhao, or send Qin Zhao to a temple to be tonsured as a nun, but the late emperor did not agree, so in the end she had to settle for the next best option.
Fortunately, she still obtained this edict, which curbed Qin Zhao's rising momentum.
She tolerated Qin Zhao for a long time just because she wanted to give Qin Zhao a head-on blow at the critical moment and make Qin Zhao realize that she was just a concubine.
Later, Queen Mother Guo wanted to have a few words with Xiao Ce, but Xiao Ce didn't answer a word, which made her look extremely ugly.
But this was a public place, so she couldn't have a seizure.
Finally, the new emperor's enthronement banquet was successfully completed. When it was over, Empress Dowager Guo specially called Wu Xirou and asked her to wait in front of Xiao Ce.
Wu Xirou responded and followed Xiao Ce's side.
Today is the first day of the new emperor's ascension to the throne. He must have a concubine to accompany him to bed, right? He was originally going to establish a queen, but this matter can only be postponed.
Moreover, Empress Dowager Guo appointed her to accompany the emperor today, which made her feel flattered.
