Chapter 720: Precious
"I'm worried myself." Qin Zhao stretched himself: "It's better to be comfortable in your own nest."
She didn't expect to meet so many people in the Imperial Garden, and Cui Yan's appearance surprised her even more.
Anyway, in his previous life, Cui Yan was a bit scheming and inconsistent. On the surface, he looked virtuous and virtuous, but in his heart, he was very carefree.
In this life, Cui Yan was still young and unmarried. Cui Yan would suddenly enter the palace. It was designated because Empress Dowager Guo was dissatisfied with Wu Xirou's lack of combat effectiveness. Empress Dowager Guo might even want Cui Yan to sit in the middle palace, right?
It's just that Cui Yan's background was average. If Zhuang Qing hadn't married someone, Queen Mother Guo would never have had her idea for Cui Yan.
Now that Cui Yan has entered the palace, it is Empress Dowager Guo's helpless move.
"The girl needs to be careful about Miss Cui. She is related to the emperor and has the support of the Queen Mother. If she stays in the palace for a long time, she may be targeted at the girl." Baozhu and Qin Zhao thought of it.
Qin Zhao raised his lips in a low voice: "Even with the support of Queen Mother Guo, Cui Yan can't make a big splash!"
So what if Cui Yan can pretend? What she met was Xiao Ce.
Xiao Ce doesn't understand the style, and he doesn't like people like Wu Xirou and Wu Xiyu, let alone the duplicitous Cui Yan?
In her previous life, she threw Cui Yan out of the palace, and Xiao Ce didn't say anything wrong to her. This shows that Xiao Ce in his previous life saw through Cui Yan's true nature.
In this life, Cui Yan is not as good as in her previous life. After all, she is a young girl who has not left the court, and has not been baptized by backyard fights. She thinks that it is no problem to deal with Cui Yan.
Of course, it would be best if Cui Yan didn't provoke her. If Cui Yan came to her to gain a sense of presence, she would let Cui Yan taste the feeling of being thrown out of the palace again.
"What about the emperor?" Baozhu asked weakly.
Today, the girl choked the emperor in front of so many people. The girl was too brave.
Qin Zhao smiled and said, "I'm not afraid, so what are you afraid of? I choked the emperor because I don't want the emperor to come to me and arouse the jealousy of the concubines in the harem. Now I need to stay alone in Jinyang Palace to have a good pregnancy."
She just didn't want to reconcile with Xiao Ce so quickly. Nothing was as important as her child, so of course Xiao Ce had to step aside.
Baozhu was relieved when he saw that Qin Zhao spoke righteously.
The girl is not afraid, and she is not afraid either. The emperor cares about the girl anyway. Even if the girl insults the emperor in public today, the emperor can't do anything to the girl. This is the girl's confidence.
What's more, the girl still has an heir to the throne in her belly.
"The emperor has always been concerned with saving face. If I prevent the emperor from leaving the stage today, the emperor will definitely not come to see me recently." Qin Zhao thought of the scene in the imperial garden and curled his lips with a smile.
"Everything has been planned by the girl." Baozhu couldn't help but sigh.
She didn't know before that this was the girl's deliberate act.
"Forget about the emperor, let Baoyu make some delicious food. I'm hungry." Qin Zhao changed the subject.
The orb went away in response.
The next day Cui Yan came to Jinyang Palace and wanted to see Qin Zhao.
But Baoyu came out to send a message, saying that Qin Zhao hadn't gotten up yet: "If Miss Cui is in a hurry, she'll come back next time. If she's not in a hurry, she can wait until our girl gets up."
Cui Yan didn't expect Qin Zhao to sleep so late. She once suspected that Qin Zhao didn't want to see her, so she used this method to embarrass her. She was in a dilemma for a while.
"In that case, why don't Miss Cui wait here?" It was Nian Su who answered.
Cui Yan looked at Nian Su, and Nian Su added: "Miss Cui has just entered the palace. I'm afraid she doesn't know Miss Qin's work and rest time. Miss Qin got up late."
This is saying to Cui Yan, don’t think too much, Qin Zhao has this kind of virtue.
When Cui Yan saw Nian Su saying this, he naturally had no objection.
It was not until three o'clock in the morning that Qin Zhao appeared.
Qin Zhao yawned as she walked, and she didn't look ladylike at all. But even though she was dressed simply and didn't apply makeup, she was still stunningly beautiful.
Cui Yan frowned slightly as he looked at Qin Zhao, who was always exuding charm.
Qin Zhao happened to see this little detail, and she found it funny.
Cui Yan seems to be quite dissatisfied with her. Is he jealous of her beauty?
Thinking of this, she slightly curved her lips and sat down with Baozhu's support.
"I wonder why Miss Cui came to see me? I just got up and heard that a distinguished guest was coming. She came here without even eating breakfast." What Qin Zhao said seemed to be blaming Cui Yan for coming to Jinyang.
Palace, it affects her eating breakfast normally.
Cui Yan felt mum in his heart, but with a smile on his face: "It's all my fault. I didn't know that Miss Qin got up late and came at the wrong time."
"It's easy to talk. I'll ask Baoyu to prepare breakfast, and I'll chat with you while I eat." As Qin Zhao spoke, he stood up with Baozhu's help.
When Cui Yan and Nian Su saw this scene, they both criticized Qin Zhao for being a pretentious woman. They specifically asked the attendants to help her when they sat down and stood up. How could she be so dignified?
Qin Zhao didn't care what Cui Yan and Nian Su thought. She went to the dining table and her eyes lit up when she saw the dazzling breakfast.
Cui Yan saw the breakfast on the table, but there was only one breakfast. He seemed to be joking: "Miss Qin's breakfast is so rich."
"Yes, Baoyu dotes on me, and is afraid that I won't be full, so he got up early in the morning and cooked such a sumptuous breakfast for me. I am a blessed person." Qin Zhao sighed sincerely before sitting down to eat.
God treated her really well. All four of her servants were loyal to her, and she was given a child in such a broken body. Under such circumstances, what reason did she have for not taking care of herself and taking good care of the child in her belly?
Cui Yan felt that Qin Zhao was deliberately showing off, but she did not dare to speak her mind.
Not only did she think so, Nian Su who was waiting on the side also felt that Qin Zhao said this to her on purpose, but she thought that Qin Zhao's blessing might not last long.
Why is a woman like Qin Zhao so blessed?
Qin Zhao chewed slowly and spoke to Cui Yan from time to time.
Cui Yan used to think that she was a scheming person, but when facing Qin Zhao, she only felt that Qin Zhao, a woman, gave her the urge to curse and change her face.
But she still had to maintain a semblance of respectability.
Because Qin Zhao was valued by the emperor's cousin, she also planned to follow Qin Zhao more in the future and use Qin Zhao to ascend to the throne.
Just at this moment, Wu Xirou came.
Seeing that Cui Yan was also present, her expression did not change, but she just stepped forward to greet Qin Zhao.
"Would Sister Wu want to try Baoyu's craftsmanship?" Qin Zhao pointed to the various breakfasts on the table and asked.
Wu Xirou politely refused: "I'm not hungry yet. Sister, please eat and don't pay attention to me."
As she said this, she sat quietly aside, not feeling bored, just sitting there.
Cui Yan only felt strange when he saw this scene, and secretly thought that Wu Xiurong was also weird. Qin Zhao was having breakfast, and Wu Xiurong was just sitting aside. Isn't that too clever?
At this moment, she didn't realize it herself. Like Wu Xirou, she was sitting on the sidelines watching Qin Zhao enter his breakfast.
