Chapter 648 Mutual respect
Xiao Ce was also afraid that Qin Zhao would say something unpleasant again, so he coughed twice to remind Qin Zhao that he was here.
Qin Zhao looked back at him and said lightly: "Why didn't you say anything when the emperor came? He's just like a ghost. It's not that he's shameful."
Zhang Jixiang's face changed slightly and he quickly looked at his master.
However, Xiao Ce felt that there was something hidden behind Qin Zhao's words, and that this girl was mocking him overtly or covertly.
Does it also mean that Qin Zhao cares about him staying in other palaces?
"What are you doing?" Xiao Ce's lips curved slightly, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
Qin Zhao glared at him: "Does the Emperor have an eye problem?"
He stood there for so long, couldn't he see that she was watering the flowers? To ask her what she was doing, he was either blind or having a brain disorder.
Xiao Ce laughed dumbly and showed no sign of anger.
Zhang Jixiang only found it strange that the emperor was not angry when he was ridiculed by Miss Qin like this. When did his temper become so good?
Even Qin Zhao found Xiao Ce strange. He was able to laugh even after being arranged by her. He thought it was because he was so comfortable being served by Wu Xirou that he could smile so happily, right?
She had already figured it out, but now that she saw the proud Xiao Ce, she was not in a good mood.
"Zhang Jixiang, the emperor is a busy man. As a servant, you must always remind the emperor to put government affairs first." Qin Zhao looked at Zhang Jixiang and lectured him.
Zhang Jixiang felt wronged.
How can you blame him?
The emperor is coming to Jinyang Palace, can he hold him back?
Seeing that Qin Zhao was still staring at him, he replied weakly: "What the girl taught you is that it was the slave's fault."
"You know your mistake, why don't you take the emperor back to the Yangxin Hall?" Qin Zhao said, turned around and continued to water the flowers, not wanting to talk to Xiao Ce anymore.
Zhang Jixiang looked at Xiao Ce, but Xiao Ce ignored him and took the kettle from Qin Zhao's hand: "If you water the flowers like this, you will water the living ones to death."
Qin Zhao remained silent.
Her eyes were fixed on Xiao Ce's slender fingers. Thinking of these hands touching other women, to be honest, she felt so dirty.
She didn't know she had mysophobia before, but now she understands this fact. Is it too late?
"I know you can't hide things in your heart. If you have any questions, just ask and I will answer them truthfully." Xiao Ce's eyes were fixed on Qin Zhao's frowning brows.
Qin Zhao lowered his lips: "What problem can I have? I have good food and shelter every day, but I live like a pig."
What she actually wanted to say was, could she stop sleeping with him in the future? She couldn't pass the hurdle in her heart.
"I have said before that if you have anything, you can tell me and don't keep everything in your heart." Xiao Ce looked at Qin Zhao helplessly: "I also remember that you said that this world is unfair, and men can
There are three wives and four concubines, but a woman has to live with one."
When Qin Zhao heard this, he looked at Xiao Ce and met his warm brows.
"I'm only staying in Zhongcui Palace, and there's nothing between me and Wu Xiurong." Xiao Ce continued in a low voice.
Qin Zhao looked at Xiao Ce blankly: "But..."
But he still needs an heir to inherit the country of Daqi. He can clearly embrace him, so why did he give up doing so?
"I'm afraid you won't be happy. Even if I don't have children in the future, Daqi will not send anyone to succeed me. Let's leave such things to the future. It's not a big deal."
Xiao Ce felt that he still cared more about Qin Zhao's feelings.
As for the imperial power, perhaps he knew that the throne belonged to him in the beginning, and he got it without going through any hardships, so he didn't value this position that much.
Anyone who has the ability can inherit the country of Daqi.
Qin Zhao didn't know what to say.
She was very sure this time. Xiao Ce did not favor Wu Xirou because he cared about her. He also did not choose to do intimate things with other women because he needed a successor to the throne.
"It seems to be my fault." Qin Zhao whispered.
If she hadn't used the bitter trick and was brought into the palace by Xiao Ce, he probably wouldn't have had so many worries.
He should have a child of his own, right?
"What's wrong with you? This is my opinion, and I agree with your point of view. Both men and women should respect each other and be on an equal footing. Since you only have me, of course I should also have only you.
You." Xiao Ce said, pinching Qin Zhao's face.
Facts have proved that she still cares, otherwise she wouldn't have been so weird when she spoke just now.
Qin Zhao stopped being pretentious. She was very happy now because Xiao Ce's words spoke to her heart.
"Your Majesty is very, very handsome today, more handsome than ever before!" Qin Zhao threw himself into Xiao Ce's arms.
Fortunately, she thought Xiao Ce was dirty before, but now she can safely fall into his arms.
Xiao Ce laughed: "That's not what you were thinking just now."
He was sarcastic every word, just pointed at his nose and scolded him.
"I didn't think about anything just now. I made it clear that these flowers and plants are dead things. How can they be compared with a real dragon emperor like the emperor?!" Qin Zhao said with a smile.
Xiao Ce didn't expose her either.
Seeing her happy makes him happy too.
Qin Zhao did not chase Xiao Ce away, but took Xiao Ce out of Jinyang Palace for a stroll. She wanted to tell the world that the man she was with was so good that no matter what happened in the future, she would not want to leave him.
.
There shouldn't be another man in this world who can think what she wants and respect her so much, right?
Xiao Ce knew that she was in a good mood, so he let her pull him towards the Royal Garden.
In the past few days, Xiao Ce had been staying at Zhongcui Palace one after another. Many people thought that Qin Zhao, the old love, had fallen out of favor, and Wu Xirou, the new love, had taken over.
Qin Zhao suddenly and intimately pulled Xiao Ce to the Royal Garden. Many people felt strange when they saw this scene and couldn't help but take a second look.
In addition, Xiao Ce and Qin Zhao were smiling while holding hands, and their relationship was clearly not affected in any way.
Qin Zhao was purely happy, smiling all over her face, and greeted everyone she saw warmly.
When Xiao Ce saw these small details, he couldn't help but feel glad that he had done the right thing.
It seemed that he had never seen Qin Zhao so happy since she entered the palace.
He also always remembered that when he first asked her to be Liangdi, she was not happy.
Now he felt that she followed him willingly, even though he had not given her a title.
He hesitated slightly, "Zhaozhao, regarding the canonization..."
"It's nothing. Just think that the emperor and I are lovers now and have not officially been together yet. This matter is not urgent. There is no need for the emperor to explain to me. I know the emperor's difficulties." Qin Zhao immediately heard what Xiao Ce wanted to say.
What.
Xiao Ce gave her what she wanted most, and her status was secondary to her.
