Chapter 645: Will we become strangers?
Qin Zhao took a look at the orb and said, "What kind of curse do I have?"
What she said was obviously the truth.
The Queen Mother Guo in her previous life did die early, and she didn’t know how she died. Rumor has it that the Queen Mother Guo died of illness. At present, the death of the Queen Mother Guo is not necessarily as simple as the legend...
That night, Nianyun went to Yangxin Hall and said that Queen Mother Guo suddenly fell ill.
Xiao Ce went to Cihe Palace to visit Empress Dowager Guo, and Nianyun told the story about Qin Zhao's curse on Empress Dowager Guo to die early. Later, Empress Dowager Guo became so angry that she fainted. At night, Empress Dowager Guo fell ill.
"Zhao Zhao is not such a shapeless person." After hearing Nianyun's accusation, Xiao Ce felt that this was not something Qin Zhao would do.
"If the emperor doesn't believe what I'm saying, you can go to Miss Qin and find out what happened and see if I'm lying!" Nianyun said angrily.
Xiao Ce glanced at Queen Mother Guo, who had her eyes closed and said nothing, then looked at Nianyun, and walked away quickly.
He quickly rushed to Jinyang Palace. Qin Zhao had just finished taking a bath and was about to take a rest early when he saw Xiao Ce coming with a fierce look. He probably also knew that it was Empress Dowager Guo who had filed an imperial complaint.
She decided to strike first, "Although the Emperor is busy with government affairs all day long, he must also pay more attention to the Queen Mother. Today I went to Cihe Palace for dinner and saw that the Queen Mother's seal was dark..."
"Zhao Zhao, how can you curse your mother?!" Xiao Ce interrupted Qin Zhao.
Qin Zhao lowered his lips: "This is not a curse, what I said is the truth. Has the emperor forgotten that I am the inheritor of a mysterious family and can see some things that others cannot see. Today I really saw the Queen Mother in Cihe Palace
There is a person in white clothes floating next to the empress, who looks like the legendary seducer."
Xiao Ce was speechless for a moment, unable to tell whether Qin Zhao's words were true or false.
"Originally I didn't have to say it, but knowing that my truth would make the Queen Mother dissatisfied, I still said it anyway because it was related to the Queen Mother's body. Even if the Emperor doesn't believe it, I hope I'm wrong.
That’s it.” Qin Zhao said seriously.
"Are you serious?!" Xiao Ce still didn't believe Qin Zhao's words.
What this girl said seemed true and false, so he couldn't be blamed for being suspicious.
"Your Majesty doesn't believe me if I say it's true. Why should Your Majesty ask me any more? Your Majesty can just pretend that I never said this." Qin Zhao gave Xiao Ce a fake smile.
Xiao Ce hesitated for a moment and then asked: "If this is true, is there a way to resolve it?"
Qin Zhao did not expect Xiao Ce to ask such a question.
"The emperor thinks too highly of me. I don't have that ability." Qin Zhao replied slowly.
After all, Queen Mother Guo did die in her previous life. As for how she died, she really didn't know. It might have been because she had committed too many sins and was retaliated against, but of course other possibilities cannot be ruled out.
She really didn't like Queen Mother Guo, but she didn't want Queen Mother Guo to lose her life because of this, just because Queen Mother Guo was Xiao Ce's biological mother.
Queen Mother Guo may have committed many crimes. If Princess Yongning's biological mother died in the hands of Queen Mother Guo, and the late emperor also died in the hands of Queen Mother Guo, couldn't Princess Yongning avenge her mother's murder, and Xiao Ce wouldn't?
Avenge your father's murder?
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was a tragedy, and she felt a little depressed: "Your Majesty, please think that I am talking nonsense. I want to go to sleep. Your Majesty, please go back to Yangxin Palace to rest early."
When Xiao Ce saw this, he thought Qin Zhao was angry because he doubted her, so he explained: "This matter is of great importance, so I just asked a few more questions. It's not that I don't trust you..."
"I'm not angry. Your Majesty has so many things to do all day long, and yet he's bothered by my nonsense. Let me tell the truth. Previously in Cihe Palace, I was deliberately angry with the Queen Mother. Who asked the Queen Mother to speak in a weird and eccentric manner? I couldn't get angry at the moment, so I
Curse her with those words—"
"Qin Zhao, you should have a certain degree of willfulness!" Xiao Ce was really angry.
Qin Zhao was also calm: "It was my fault. Your Majesty, please don't argue with me. I won't do it again next time."
Xiao Ce stared at Qin Zhao for a long time, and finally said nothing and walked away.
Qin Zhao looked at Xiao Ce's back and suddenly felt very uncomfortable.
If Queen Mother Guo really dies one day, and she has a share of the credit for it, Xiao Ce will definitely be disappointed in her if he knows the truth, right?
After the death of Queen Mother Guo in his previous life, Xiao Ce became even more indifferent and must have known some truths.
"Ma'am, can you please arrange it earlier?" Bao Zhu said in a low voice when he saw Qin Zhao's depressed mood.
Qin Zhaoqiang cheered up: "Do you think the emperor and I will be strangers in the future?"
"Absolutely not. Girl, please don't let your imagination run wild." Baozhu replied eagerly.
"Everything in the world is unpredictable. Who knows what will happen between me and him in the future?" Qin Zhao let out a long breath: "I don't want to think about it anymore, go to sleep."
After Xiao Ce left Jinyang Palace that night, his face was gloomy.
Zhang Jixiang observed the words and said cautiously: "Miss Qin may have said some unpleasant things to the Queen Mother out of anger. She was not sincere. Your Majesty, please don't argue with Miss Qin."
Xiao Ce had calmed down at this time: "But what if what Zhaozhao said is true?"
He understood Qin Zhao's temperament. She seemed to be careless, but she acted in a measured way. How could she easily curse the mother? He even felt that Qin Zhao's words were true, and the mother was indeed in a bloody disaster.
"I see that the Queen Mother is fine and does not seem to be in pain. If the Emperor is worried, send more people to protect the Queen Mother, so that the Emperor can feel at ease." Zhang Jixiang followed Xiao Ce's words.
"I usually ask the Imperial Hospital to help my mother diagnose Ping'an Pulse on time. You should also send people to keep an eye on the Cihe Palace. If there is any abnormality, report it to me as soon as possible." Xiao Ce gave the order and went to the Yangxin Palace.
Zhang Jixiang should be aware that he would send someone to take care of the matter from then on.
In Cihe Palace, Queen Mother Guo could not sleep.
She had pretended to be sick before, just to hope that Xiao Ce would cause trouble for Qin Zhao, or that Xiao Ce would teach Qin Zhao a lesson. If Xiao Ce could turn against Qin Zhao, that would be the best.
But somehow, Qin Zhao's words always lingered in her ears.
Qin Zhao said that her hall has turned dark and she will die in the next few years. How is that possible?
She was obviously in good health, and every time the imperial doctor diagnosed her Ping'an pulse, she said she was in good health. It took her twenty years to become the Queen Mother, and she enjoyed endless glory and wealth. How could she be short-lived?
But Qin Zhaoyan's confident look made her uneasy as she had never felt before.
Seeing that Queen Mother Guo was tossing and turning, Nianyun couldn't help but worry: "Your Majesty is feeling unwell, should I summon the imperial doctor?"
Queen Mother Guo sat up and said, "It's probably because I'm old and my sleep is not as good as before."
Nianyun hurriedly stepped forward to help: "Nonsense, in the eyes of this slave, the empress is as young and beautiful as before."
Empress Dowager Guo touched her face and said, "The Ai family knows that they are getting old. A Ce has become the emperor and the previous emperor has passed away. Apart from A Ce, there is no one in the palace that the Ai family can worry about. The Ai family only looks forward to their remaining years.
I can see Ace getting married and having a son, and his family is full of children and grandchildren."
