Chapter 661 Making trouble
"Why isn't the girl's reputation important? I wish I could tear those bitches to pieces who gossip about the girl behind my back!" Baoyu said and walked away.
Qin Zhao felt funny when he saw this scene.
There is a Mid-Autumn Festival dinner tonight, and I wonder if Xiao Ce has received this news. If he learns of this, I am afraid he will be in a dilemma between her and Queen Mother Guo again.
Therefore, she and Queen Mother Guo cannot coexist, and sooner or later, this illusion of peace will have to be broken.
In the evening of that day, Xiao Ce specially came to Jinyang Palace to pick up Qin Zhao to attend the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner in Baohe Palace.
Qin Zhao originally didn't want to go, but Xiao Ce came in person. With his self-centered nature, it was not her turn to refuse.
"Would it be against the rules for me to sit with the emperor?" Qin Zhao looked at the man beside him and asked.
I don't know if it was because she was poisoned today or because he never canonized her, but Xiao Ce wanted to compensate her in this way.
Basically, Xiao Ce is a rational man who will not act impulsively, but today he specially let her sit on the imperial chariot. What does this make the people in the harem think? What do the civil and military officials think?
"I am the rule!" Xiao Ce looked at Qin Zhao, his eyes as bright as spring: "You are not a rule-abiding person either."
Qin Zhao felt that this was reasonable.
Xiao Ce was calm, and she was even more calm. She was not a normal person anyway, and she was not afraid of strange looks.
In this way, accompanied by Xiao Ce, Qin Zhao went to the Baohe Hall.
The arrival of Xiao Ce, the emperor, was enough to attract the attention of everyone present.
But the most eye-catching presence in the audience was Qin Zhao.
He was poisoned during the day, and couldn't wait to follow the new emperor to Baohe Palace at night.
Xiao Ce also made no secret of his love for Qin Zhao and asked her to sit very close to him, which was slightly inferior to the empress dowager's position.
If it weren't for Qin Zhao's lack of fame and status, Qin Zhao would be sitting at the same table as Xiao Ce at this moment.
Wu Xirou saw this heartbreaking scene from a distance, her pupils tightened.
Originally, he thought that Qin Zhaocai had been poisoned and would never appear on this important occasion tonight, but Xiao Ce personally took Qin Zhao over.
Looking at all the concubines in the harem, none of them could sit as close to Xiao Ce as Qin Zhao did. Of course, there was no one as capable as Qin Zhao who asked Xiao Ce to pick them up in person.
Moreover, Qin Zhao came on the same throne as Xiao Ce, so she had received this news long ago.
Qin Zhao seemed to sense Wu Xirou's gaze. She looked up and met Wu Xirou's focused eyes.
She smiled slightly and said hello.
But in Wu Xirou's view, this look contained a hint of demonstration.
How did Qin Zhao know the twists and turns in Wu Xirou's heart? After she sat down, Qiu Shui immediately served delicious food and served at the side: "How is your appetite, young lady? Is there anything you particularly want to eat? I will order it to be brought to you."
"I'm fine. This is enough for me to eat. You can go wait on the emperor and ignore me." Qin Zhao's eyebrows were crooked.
"That can't be done. Your Majesty asked your servant to serve the girl well tonight. If the girl has any orders, just give them to her." Qiu Shui replied proudly.
Qin Zhao coughed lightly, "Did the Emperor really say that?"
Qiu Shui is now very powerful, she is Xiao Ce's eldest palace maid. Having Qiu Shui personally serve her will make many people jealous of her.
"Yes, it will be fine if the emperor has Jixiang to serve you." Qiu Shui said and ordered the palace servants to bring several desserts.
Qin Zhao looked over and was stunned for a moment. Aren't these the desserts she asked Baoyu to make?
"The emperor remembered the taste after tasting it and ordered the imperial chef to make it specially for the girl. However, the girl was poisoned just now, so she didn't dare to put ice in it. The girl just had to eat it." Qiu Shui explained Qin Zhao's doubts.
At this moment, Qin Zhao couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Xiao Ce was a thoughtful person.
She thought Xiao Ce liked the desserts made by Baoyu, but she was wrong. Maybe Xiao Ce liked eating them just because she sent them to them.
Thinking of this possibility, she felt that the dessert tasted better.
Qiu Shui saw Qin Zhao's slightly curved lips and instantly knew that the girl was in a good mood. She also picked some good words to say, saying that Qin Zhao was happy both physically and mentally. Of course, that was only before Queen Mother Guo came to Baohe Hall.
After Queen Mother Guo walked into the Baohe Hall, she saw Qin Zhao sitting in a conspicuous place, the seat closest to her and the emperor.
The story of Nian Su being slapped was widely spread in the harem. In the evening, the emperor took Qin Zhao, a witch, to the Baohe Hall and sat in the most conspicuous position. Wasn't this the emperor helping Qin Zhao to slap her face?
Nianyun knew that Queen Mother Guo was unhappy, so she reminded her in a low voice: "Please calm down, Queen Mother. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, a good day for family reunion."
No matter how angry you are, you can't make trouble on a day like today.
Queen Mother Guo had a backlog of anger in her heart, but she knew that Nianyun was right. Otherwise, if this matter spread, it would lose the face of the royal family and her, the Queen Mother.
As for Qin Zhao, how can a concubine have any dignity at all?
Qin Zhao knew about it when Queen Mother Guo entered the Baohe Hall, and she also heard clearly the conversation between Queen Mother Guo and Nianyun.
She thinks the current situation is quite good.
Empress Dowager Guo loves face. After becoming the Empress Dowager, she cherishes her feathers very much. She also has to take into account Xiao Ce's feelings and must be cautious about everything she does. She is just the opposite. She has nothing to lose anyway, and she is not afraid of breaking up with Empress Dowager Guo.
So she doesn't have to rush to get rid of Queen Mother Guo. No matter how much Queen Mother Guo dislikes her, she can't get rid of her, right?!
When Queen Mother Guo arrived, everyone stood up and saluted Queen Mother Guo. Xiao Ce, the emperor, also got off the throne and stepped forward to help Queen Mother Guo sit down.
Qin Zhao also wanted to show off and then took his seat.
Qiu Shui was feeding, and Queen Mother Guo said to Qin Zhao at this time: "Qin Zhao, are you satisfied with the supplements sent to Jinyang Palace by the Ai family?"
Qin Zhao stood up and responded, "Not very satisfied."
If Queen Mother Guo wanted to cause trouble, she would accompany Queen Mother Guo to make trouble and make it lively.
Queen Mother Guo did not expect Qin Zhao's answer. She originally wanted to expose Qin Zhao's evil deeds in public, but Qin Zhao caught her off guard by killing her at the beginning.
"Since the Queen Mother asked about it, there are some things I won't be unhappy with. There are so many people around the Queen Mother, why did she choose a clumsy person? Originally, the supplements sent by the Queen Mother were very expensive, and I also
She liked it very much, but Niansu accidentally dropped the supplement. Wasn't this in vain to offend the Queen Mother? Fortunately, Niansu slapped her dozens of times, and it was easy to get along with her when she returned to her. This was just a small matter,
Today is a good day for Mid-Autumn Festival reunion, so let’s not talk about the people and things that are disappointing." Qin Zhao said eloquently.
It's interesting to say that originally she didn't care what the world thought of her, but Queen Mother Guo was kind enough to give her the opportunity to clarify, so she naturally had to take advantage of it.
