"Jixiang came here to find his beloved concubine?" Xiao Ce glanced at Zhang Jixiang, who was standing not far away.
Zhang Jixiang heard this clearly and immediately fell to his knees.
Seeing this, Qin Zhao coughed lightly and said, "If I don't want to do it, even if someone invites me to come over with eight carriages, I still won't want to. I have never been a person who is willing to suffer losses and be wronged."
"I can tell." Xiao Ce's expression was indifferent, showing no emotion or anger.
Qin Zhao couldn't figure out what he was thinking for a while, but now that he is here, he still has to say something: "Although I don't know what the emperor is thinking, the emperor should first lift the empress dowager's restraint.
, and also ask the imperial doctor to treat the Queen Mother well..."
"I don't want to." Xiao Ce interrupted Qin Zhao abruptly.
Qin Zhao didn't expect him to be so straightforward.
When Zhang Jixiang heard the conversation between the two masters, he immediately stood up alertly and took everyone away from Sanxi Hall so that the two people in Sanxi Hall could speak freely.
Qin Zhao also heard the sound of people's footsteps disappearing, and there were no outsiders around, so she asked: "Why?"
After all, Queen Mother Guo is also Xiao Ce's biological mother. Her biological mother is seriously ill, how can he remain indifferent?
Xiao Ce thought of the dream he had yesterday and looked a little dazed: "Last night I dreamed that my mother died of illness, but I remember that in the dream, I knew that my father was poisoned by her, so I gave her a glass of poisoned wine to let her
Go to the imperial mausoleum to accompany your father..."
Qin Zhao was shocked when he heard this.
Could the dream Xiao Ce mentioned be something that really happened in a previous life?
In her previous life, it was said that the Queen Mother Guo died of illness, but she remembered that she had seen the Queen Mother Guo at that time. She was obviously fine the last time she saw the Queen Mother Guo, but suddenly it was said that the Queen Mother Guo contracted a serious illness, and finally died.
For a moment, she broke into a cold sweat and knew that she shouldn't come this time.
"I don't know why I had this dream, but I thought it was something I would do. My beloved concubine, you know that many years ago, when I was still young, in order to compete for favor, the Queen Mother took poisoned wine and drank her a glass.
I have a cup. The Queen Mother threatened my father in this way. That time my father relented. Another time, my father had a new favorite concubine. In order to win favor, the Queen Mother slapped me and put the blame on that unlucky concubine.
Once, my father turned over the sign of a new guy, and the Queen Mother took me into my father's palace, forcing my father to lose his temper at that moment. I still remember that my father and the new guy were not married.
Cunxu, it looks like two snakes spitting out apricots. It’s so disgusting that it makes me want to vomit..."
After that, when he saw all the women, he would compare them with the Queen Mother Guo. He would think about whether beneath those beautiful faces, they might be as hypocritical and vicious as the Queen Mother Guo.
Qin Zhao's hands and feet were weak and she wanted Xiao Ce to stop talking, but her voice was stuck in her throat and she couldn't say anything.
Xiao Ce was so absorbed in what he was saying that when he saw that Qin Zhao was motionless, he turned his eyes and saw that Qin Zhao had tears streaming down his face.
"My beloved concubine is such a soft-hearted child, she cried like this." Xiao Ce's cold fingertips fell on the corners of Qin Zhao's eyes, wiping away her tears.
But the more tears she shed, the corners of his lips could not help but rise.
It turned out that she cried like this. This was the first time he had seen her cry, and there was no beauty in it at all.
Qin Zhao also realized that she had lost her composure. It took her a while to stop crying and sat obediently next to Qin Zhao.
"Everyone in the world thinks that I am too kind to the Queen Mother, and my beloved concubine must think so too. In fact, I hate seeing the Queen Mother from the bottom of my heart. Whenever I see the Queen Mother, I will think of the past that made me sick and vomited. The Queen Mother is really
If I die, no one will know about my rotten and dirty past..."
Qin Zhao felt something was wrong when he heard this.
Originally, she only eavesdropped briefly last time and knew that Xiao Ce's childhood life was not very pleasant. But this time Xiao Ce told her these secrets personally. If Queen Mother Guo is really going to die, then she will be the only one who knows about Xiao Ce.
Those dark childhood lives?
A chill suddenly shot up from the soles of her feet. She suddenly felt a chill on the back of her neck, and her sitting posture gradually became stiff.
"What's wrong with my beloved concubine?" Xiao Ce sensed Qin Zhao's emotional changes immediately.
"The rumors are getting more and more intense. Doesn't the Emperor have any plans?" What Qin Zhao originally wanted to say circled around in his mouth, and finally changed its taste.
Jun's heart is unpredictable, and she suddenly felt that it would be better for her to stay out of trouble. Maybe Xiao Ce had his own plans.
"No plan." Xiao Ce opened his lips calmly.
Qin Zhao suddenly realized that she didn't know Xiao Ce at all. Xiao Ce said he had no plans, but his intuition told her that this man had plans, but he just didn't want to tell her.
"I feel that the rumors are getting more and more intense, and this matter is unusual." Qin Zhao was silent for a moment and expressed his conjecture.
"It's the unusual that makes it interesting." Xiao Ce's words were concise and to the point.
Qin Zhao turned his eyes to look at Xiao Ce, facing his strong jawline with sharp edges and corners, which made his handsome face even colder.
He held her hand with one hand, but his right hand was still waving ink, and was not affected by her.
She looked over and saw that he had written the word "wait".
His calligraphy is vigorous and powerful, yet gorgeous and elegant, which is pleasing to the eye.
When Qin Zhao saw the word "wait", he knew that Xiao Ce knew what was going on, so it was not something she could comment on whether Empress Dowager Guo would release her, she just had to wait.
Qin Zhao stared at her for a while, feeling that there was no point in coming here. He was about to get up and leave, but Xiao Ce gently squeezed her palm and said, "Since my beloved concubine is here, please stay with me."
Qin Zhao didn't know what the so-called "accompanying" meant until Xiao Ce asked her to serve the pen and ink.
While Xiao Ce was busy, she heard jagged footsteps approaching, and she also heard Zhao Yu's footsteps among them.
Because Zhao Yu was her ex-husband, and because of the small incident that happened during the Double Ninth Festival, she didn't want to meet Zhao Yu at all.
She only hesitated whether to leave first, but saying so would seem a bit abrupt.
At this time, Zhang Jixiang came in and reported: "Your Majesty, several adults are here. They want to discuss important matters with the Emperor. Do you think so?"
His eyes seemed to be wandering towards Qin Zhao.
Xiao Ce turned to look at Qin Zhao, who said knowingly, "I, my concubine, please retire."
This time Xiao Ce did not stop him, and Qin Zhao withdrew from Nuan Pavilion.
At this point, it was inevitable to meet several adults, and Zhao Yu was among them.
It seemed that they had not expected that she would be accompanying him in Nuange at this time. Several adults were a little surprised. Only Zhao Yu returned to normal after a moment of surprise.
Several adults saluted Qin Zhao at the same time. Qin Zhao nodded slightly and left quickly.
From the corner of Zhao Yu's eyes, he looked at the bright skirt, which drew an elegant arc in his eyes. It disappeared in an instant, and he felt sad...
