Chapter 699 Don’t force it
Qin Zhao didn't want to pay attention to Baoyu. All this girl was thinking about was petty matters like fighting for favor. If one day she really wanted to fight for favor, it would be out of her temper.
Bao Zhu clarified Bao Yu's confusion in a low voice: "Girl, you are not going to compete for favor. Since you are going to the Yangxin Palace, you must have something to talk to the Emperor about."
Baoyu was a little disappointed, but on second thought, this was probably the girl's temperament.
Accompanied by Baozhu, Qin Zhao went to the Yangxin Hall.
It happened that Wu Xirou was also in the Yangxin Hall. When she learned that Qin Zhao was coming, Wu Xirou immediately came to Qin Zhao to say hello.
Qin Zhao spared her courtesy and then said to Xiao Ce: "I have something to discuss with the emperor. Can the emperor go out with me for a walk?"
Xiao Ce took a deep look at her, secretly thinking that she would not come to him if nothing happened.
Qin Zhao was confused by this look, but this time he really wanted to discuss something serious with him.
This time Qin Zhao took the initiative and brought Xiao Ce to Sanxi Hall and pushed back. Then she said the business: "The Queen Mother's birthday is coming soon. I have been thinking about it for a long time and don't know what gift to give, so
I came here specifically to see the Emperor, maybe the Emperor can help me with some advice?"
Xiao Ce did not expect that Qin Zhao came for this matter.
He thought for a moment and then shook his head: "I can't remember it for a while."
In the past, he only went to have a meal when the Queen Mother was born, and the Queen Mother never held a big birthday party, unlike the Queen Mother.
He doesn't need to think about things like giving gifts.
Qin Zhao felt that Xiao Ce's answer was exactly what she wanted. She smiled and said: "Otherwise, when the emperor prepares a gift, he can also prepare one for me. The emperor must have better taste than me, so I don't have to worry about the gift.
It’s not in line with the Queen Mother’s wishes.”
When Xiao Ce saw what Qin Zhao said, there was no reason why he would not agree, "I will prepare two gifts at that time. I will send Qiushui to you on the Holy Birthday Festival, and then just send them to Cihe Palace."
This girl is able to disregard her past grievances and still think about giving a gift to her mother on the Holy Birthday Festival. This kind of magnanimity is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
"Okay!" Qin Zhao achieved his goal and smiled even wider.
By then, if Queen Mother Guo thinks her gift was not delivered well, she can move out of Xiao Ce. With Xiao Ce as the emperor supporting her, can she still be afraid of Queen Mother Guo making things difficult for her?
When Qin Zhao left the Yangxin Hall, it was already evening, and Wu Xirou was with her.
Qin Zhao glanced at Wu Xirou beside him from time to time, and met Wu Xirou's peaceful eyes: "Sister Wu has changed a lot."
Even his temperament has become calmer.
The current Wu Xirou should have the aura of a heroine, right?
The whole person exudes a comfortable aura, and people can't help but want to get close to her.
"Maybe I had a serious illness and figured out a lot of things." Wu Xirou said seriously: "If it weren't for my sister's help, I'm afraid I would be gone."
"It's just a small effort, sister, don't worry about it." Qin Zhao smiled and said, "I am happy for my sister when I see her like this."
If people didn't have so many desires and ambitions, they wouldn't have so much pain.
"I only hope that the emperor will be well and that my sister will be well too. Then I will be satisfied." Wu Xirou said softly.
Qin Zhao slowed down and said politely: "Sister, please be well too."
Wu Xirou also remembered something serious at this time: "Yes, has your sister prepared gifts for the Queen Mother's birthday?"
"Sister, are you sure I will send you a gift?" Qin Zhao was a little surprised.
"Although the Queen Mother is prejudiced against my sister, according to my sister's temper, it is impossible for me to choose to retreat on such a big day. That's what I think. What I'm worried about is that the Queen Mother will make things difficult for my sister on the Holy Birthday Festival. Is my sister going to do this?
Be prepared." Wu Xirou's attitude was very sincere.
Qin Zhao felt that Wu Xirou's words made sense, "If the Queen Mother really wants to make things difficult, I have no choice but to take it step by step and improvise."
When Wu Xirou saw Jinyang Palace in front of her, she slowed down and said, "Sister is almost here, I would like to see you off."
Qin Zhao smiled and waved, then walked away with brisk steps.
After returning to Jinyang Palace, Baozhu said softly: "Ms. Xiu Rong's temperament has changed from the inside out. This slave girl finds this situation very strange."
"It should be getting better, which is a good thing. As long as Sister Wu doesn't have so much jealousy and ambition, she won't have so many desires. In the Daqi harem, having desires is not necessarily a good thing." Qin
Zhao felt that, especially when facing an emperor like Xiao Ce who did not pay much attention to women, it was better to be more peaceful.
"According to my slave, the girl has a big heart. Right now, I'm just worried that the emperor will fall more and more in love with Empress Xiu Rong." Bao Zhu frowned lightly.
Qin Zhao's eyes flashed slightly: "Your Majesty is not the kind of person who likes anyone when he sees him, but Sister Wu is quite special to the Emperor after she enters the palace. If one day the Emperor falls in love with Sister Wu, then it will be Sister Wu's
This is reasonable."
The connection between Xiao Ce and Wu Xirou is very deep and cannot be broken by her alone.
Let’s wait and see what kind of plot development will happen next.
She is not in a hurry.
Even if one day Xiao Ce becomes romantically involved with Wu Xirou, she feels that she is mentally prepared.
Xiao Ce probably doesn’t know what it’s like to be in love between a man and a woman now, right?
I don’t know what it will be like to have enlightenment one day, it would be strange to think about it.
If one day Wu Xirou becomes Xiao Ce's rightful daughter, she will probably leave the palace. Because before, she discovered that she was a bit of a germaphobe and couldn't stand her man sleeping with one another.
She has her own principles and will not force things that are not her own.
Seeing Qin Zhao's open-mindedness, Bao Zhu felt a little complicated: "In the heart of the emperor, the girl is the most special existence. No one can surpass her. No matter how talented Empress Xiurong is, she can't be like her."
Because the girl is the most special existence in this world. If the emperor knows how to cherish the girl, it is the emperor's blessing. If the emperor does not know how to cherish the girl and one day makes the girl sad, it is because the emperor has no vision.
"There's no need to think too much about things that haven't happened. Let's first think about how to deal with the Holy Birthday Festival." Qin Zhao felt that this was the most important thing.
She guessed that Queen Mother Guo would find fault with her during the birthday gift, but she didn't know what other tricks Queen Mother Guo would have waiting for her. She couldn't go eavesdropping near Cihe Palace every day and let people see her sneaky appearance.
It will definitely arouse everyone's suspicion.
"According to the girl's intelligence, no matter how the Queen Mother makes things difficult for the girl, the girl will always find a way to solve it."
Baozhu's words made Qin Zhao laugh out loud: "Your words make me feel comfortable."
But Empress Dowager Guo is not a good troublemaker. Last time, Empress Dowager Guo came up with a surprise and ruined her face. Maybe she will find a way to ruin her this time.
After all, she was familiar with Queen Mother Guo's methods and did not dare to underestimate the enemy.
