Chapter 876 People’s words are scary
"Did you hear what I said?!" Qin Zhao frowned when he saw Zhang Jixiang didn't answer.
"What the Empress said is that I will obey the Empress's teachings." Zhang Jixiang did not dare to tell the truth.
"It seems I can't count on you anymore." Qin Zhao felt that he should find a way to correct Xiao Ce's bad habit of not eating on time.
In his previous life, Xiao Ce suffered from stomach problems at a young age precisely because he had irregular meals.
His bad habit of not eating on time was developed when he was a prince, so Xiao Ce had a bad stomach when he was in his twenties.
Xiao Ce has only been on the throne for more than a year, so it is not too late to correct this mistake now.
With the idea in mind, Qin Zhao began to implement it.
She quickly made a three-meal schedule and handed it to Zhang Jixiang.
"Will this... work?" Zhang Jixiang was not sure.
Qin Zhao said with a bit of a smile: "If the emperor does not eat on time, you can ask Qiu Shui to go to Jinyang Palace to find me. I will personally supervise that the emperor eats on time!"
She may not be very good at other things, but she still has the ability to make people miserable.
Zhang Jixiang's eyes lit up: "I understand."
In the future, as long as the imperial concubine and empress are moved out, and the emperor is not afraid of irregular meals, this method will definitely work.
When it was time for dinner, Zhang Jixiang prepared the meal according to Qin Zhao's instructions, and reminded Xiao Ce to eat when it was time for dinner.
"No rush." Xiao Ce did not look directly at Zhang Jixiang.
This time Zhang Jixiang handed the note prepared by Qin Zhao to Xiao Ce. Xiao Ce glanced at it and recognized Qin Zhao's handwriting. He frowned slightly and looked carefully, only to see a few words written on it:
"Dear Emperor, it's time for dinner!"
Xiao Ce immediately put away the note, pondered for a moment and then said: "Pass the meal."
Zhang Jixiang didn't expect that a note from Qin Zhao could be so powerful. He was so happy that he couldn't help but order people to pass on the food.
After that, Xiao Ce ate dinner conscientiously, while Zhang Jixiang waited on him. He once again lamented that the imperial concubine had the solution, and the emperor was treated submissively by the imperial concubine.
After Xiao Ce had dinner, he was busy dealing with government affairs. Only after he was done with his work, did he have time to see Qin Zhao's mother and son...
Early the next morning, the eldest princess Yonghe entered the palace. It was said that she came to the palace to visit Qin Zhao's mother and son.
But after just a few words with Princess Yonghe, Qin Zhao knew that Princess Yonghe had another purpose.
Seeing that Princess Yonghe had been going around for a long time without getting to the point, Qin Zhao finally became anxious and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it. What else can you say to me?"
When Princess Yonghe saw Qin Zhao's point, she didn't want to go around any more, "That's it. Mr. Wen went to Luo's house yesterday. He asked me to come into the palace to remind you of something..."
Seeing that she was hesitant to speak, Qin Zhao wished he could finish her sentence for her: "Go on."
"What we mean is that you have to be careful. If you can't help but meet Mr. Zhao, don't do it. After all, people's words are scary. Mr. An happened to be at the scene yesterday, and An Mei was demoted because of you. We are afraid of Mr. An.
Your Majesty will hate you because of this and will choose an opportunity to attack you." Princess Yonghe finished the sentence in one breath this time.
Qin Zhao smiled: "It's a shame that all of you are worried about me. Thank you."
Speaking of which, she not only gained a good man like Xiao Ce, but also made several good friends who sincerely care for her. Even Wen Chong, who had never interacted with her a few times, was still looking towards her in his heart.
"Although you are a noble concubine now, you still have to be on guard against Mr. An trying to attack you secretly. Even if Anmei is demoted, Mr. An has many followers in the court. I'm afraid if he really wants to compete with you.
You can't guard against it." Princess Yonghe thought Qin Zhao didn't listen and wanted to persuade her again.
Qin Zhao knew that Princess Yonghe had misunderstood, and she said sternly: "Don't worry, I know what I know. Mr. An is a minister of the court. If he dares to put his hand into the harem, I will not spare him!"
Since she allowed Anya, a mute, to eat yellow lotus, she had already expected that she would offend An's father.
In fact, she had the intention of testing An Shangshu by taking advantage of Anya, because she was still not sure whether An Jia was the one behind her plot.
"It's good that you know what's going on. If you don't want to meet Mr. Zhao, don't meet him. This is a taboo matter." Princess Yonghe added uneasily.
Qin Zhao thought to himself that he didn't mean to meet Zhao Yu yesterday.
Zhao Yu is her ex-husband, and Xiao Ce is her current man. Her current husband will definitely be unhappy knowing that she met her ex. Why does Princess Yonghe need to remind her about this?
No matter how big-hearted she is, she will never understand the ways of the world.
"I haven't been to the Yangxin Hall for a few days, and I never thought I would meet Mr. Zhao. I only met Mr. Zhao yesterday, and we didn't even exchange a few words. Otherwise, I will go to the Yangxin Hall next time.
Let's first find out if Mr. Zhao is here before deciding whether to go, so as to save unnecessary trouble." Qin Zhao thought this was a good idea.
She is not afraid of rumors, but she must consider Xiao Ce, otherwise it will be Xiao Ce who will be disgraced.
Princess Yonghe laughed when she heard this: "This method works."
While Princess Yonghe was chatting with Qin Zhao, Princess Yongchun also came.
The two met last time at Xiao Atom's full moon party, but had no chance to talk.
In addition, Princess Yongchun was dissatisfied with Princess Yonghe in the past, but now the friendship between Princess Yongchun and Qin Zhao is getting better and better, and the prejudice against Princess Yonghe has naturally disappeared.
"Why do you have time to return to the palace today?" Princess Yongchun greeted Princess Yonghe as soon as she saw her, and her tone was natural.
Princess Yonghe glanced at Qin Zhao and met her smiling eyebrows.
She smiled and said: "I came into the palace to see little Atom. I will go to pay my respects to the imperial grandmother later. Do you want to come with me?"
"I just came back from Shoukang Palace." Princess Yongchun said with a smile.
Yonghe, on the other hand, rushed to Jinyang Palace as soon as he entered the palace. He certainly did not enter the palace specifically to pay greetings to the emperor's grandmother.
Princess Yonghe had just finished discussing business with Qin Zhao. She stood up to leave and planned to go to Shoukang Palace.
"It's rare for you to enter the palace. If you don't have lunch at Shoukang Palace, come to Jinyang Palace for lunch. It's a rare opportunity for the two eldest princesses to get together." Qin Zhao said warmly.
Princess Yonghe did not refuse and readily agreed.
When Princess Yonghe left, Princess Yongchun had to sigh: "I found that you are really popular."
She used to look down on Qin Zhao and always felt that she was very exaggerated in everything she did and said, which was very annoying.
But after getting along for a long time, you will find that even Qin Zhao's enemies have been turned into friends by Qin Zhao, such as her.
Furthermore, people like Yonghe who were indifferent to worldly affairs eventually became Qin Zhao's friends.
There are also stern elders like the Imperial Grandmother. When she sees Qin Zhao, she will say "Zhao Yatou" to the left and "Zhao Yatou" to the right.
Not to mention that the emperor's brother, who was not a womanizer, turned into a soft girl when he saw Qin Zhao. He was as successful as Qin Zhao, and there was no one else in the entire harem.
