Xiao Yu saw the letter Qin Zhao specially sent to her. After reading it, she sat in shock for a long time.
She had to let Cheng Jin know about this matter. Yongning was a maniac who could do anything, so she had to guard against him.
In Jinyang Palace, Qin Zhao thought about it and decided to go to the Yangxin Hall to meet the Saint.
Not wanting her to enter the Yangxin Palace, she saw Zhao Yu coming out.
Zhao Yu didn't seem to expect to meet her. He slowed down, did not dare to look at her, and saluted her.
Qin Zhao had no intention of interacting with Zhao Yu again, but when she thought of Yue Qing, she still felt uneasy and said, "Yue Qing is a good woman. I hope Mr. Zhao will treat her well."
Zhao Yu didn't expect that Qin Zhao would suddenly mention Yue Qing. A sharp edge flashed in his eyes, and he remained silent for a moment before saying, "Yes, empress."
Qin Zhao didn't want to have too much interaction with Zhao Yu, so he said the next sentence and walked away quickly.
From the corner of Zhao Yu's eyes, he saw the fluttering skirt of her skirt slipping past him, flashing a flash of gorgeous color, which stung his eyes.
The less she gets, the more she misses her. But in the past few years, he has never forgotten her.
It happened that she was in the deep palace with a man who had the most power in the world. He wanted to move but couldn't, so jealousy followed her day and night, gnawing at his heart...
When Qin Zhao walked far away, she heard the sound of Zhao Yu's footsteps gradually disappearing, and the sound of Zhao Yu's footsteps seemed heavy, which frightened her.
She suddenly felt that maybe it was true as the rumors said, that Zhao Yu did have thoughts about her, but Yue Qing really didn't see any similarity with her.
I just hope that the rumors are just rumors and not facts.
If Zhao Yuzhao had thoughts about her, and if Xiao Ce accidentally found out, Xiao Ce would probably skin her.
By the time he arrived in front of Xiao Ce, Qin Zhao had returned to normal.
When Zhang Jixiang saw Qin Zhao coming, he immediately and wisely dismissed everyone.
Xiao Ce spared Qin Zhao's gift, but remembered that Zhao Yu had just left. In other words, Qin Zhao must have met Zhao Yu.
Qin Zhao observed the words and expressions, but could not tell whether Xiao Ce was happy or angry.
He is used to hiding his emotions, like this moment.
"Why did my beloved concubine come here?" Xiao Ce opened his lips indifferently.
Just as Qin Zhao was about to answer, Xiao Ce suddenly jumped to another question: "Has the noble concubine met Zhao Aiqing just now?"
Qin Zhao's heart trembled and he didn't dare to hide it: "I saw it."
"Did my beloved concubine talk to Zhao Aiqing?" Xiao Ce tapped his slender fingers on the table and asked casually.
Qin Zhao felt like a prisoner being interrogated by him. If he gave an inappropriate answer, his head would probably be lost.
"Is the emperor trying his concubine as a prisoner?" Qin Zhao looked directly at Xiao Ce and asked.
Xiao Ce met Qin Zhao's black and white eyes, with pure confusion in her eyes.
For a moment, the room was so quiet that it seemed like you could hear each other's heartbeats.
"It is true that I was Zhao Yu's first wife. Because of this, when the emperor said that he was responsible for me, I also knew that I was not suitable for the emperor. So I left the palace. It was the emperor who chased me out.
In the palace, I made my concubine the crown prince Liangdi without her knowledge. So far, the emperor has repeatedly used Zhao Yu to test my concubine. If the emperor cannot trust my concubine, he can just ignore me and never see me again.
"Qin Zhao's every word was sonorous and powerful.
She knew that she could not leave the palace, and she no longer had this expectation.
She is used to being independent and can survive without Xiao Ce.
"The noble concubine has such a strong temper!" Xiao Ce felt annoyed that Qin Zhao had hit the mark.
He really couldn't trust Qin Zhao, just as he couldn't trust Zhao Yu.
After he heard the rumor that Yue Qing was Qin Zhao's substitute, he believed it to be true for some reason. He even thought that maybe if he hadn't appeared back then, Qin Zhao would have been Zhao Yu's original wife even until his death, and he and Qin Zhao
There can be no subsequent events.
"I don't dare. I just think it's unfair. It was just a word from the emperor that he allowed me to enter the East Palace. After so many years, the emperor is still holding on to the past. In any case, I was married to the emperor before.
People's facts cannot be changed. If the emperor has a grudge in his heart, and I will not see the emperor again, I will retire." Qin Zhao said and retired respectfully.
She came here today to tell Xiao Ce that Princess Yongning could not be allowed to enter and leave the palace easily, otherwise Princess Yongning would definitely find ways to destroy the relationship between Xiao Yu and Cheng Jin.
But now that she couldn't protect herself, how could she have the energy to take care of Xiao Yu?
Zhang Jixiang watched Qin Zhao go away, and when he thought about the conversation he just heard, he felt heavy.
In his opinion, if the emperor didn't care about the imperial concubine, he wouldn't care so much about Master Zhao's existence.
It is obviously because of the emperor's strong desire for exclusivity that he mentioned Mr. Zhao many times.
As soon as Qin Zhao left, the attendants on duty beside Xiao Ce became miserable.
Obviously Long Live Lord's face looks gentler than before, but if someone accidentally makes a small mistake, Long Live Lord will be thrown out and slapped.
At the end of the day, ten attendants were punished. No one even dared to breathe too hard for fear of being noticed by Xiao Ce.
Zhang Jixiang, the famous person next to Xiao Ce, was no exception. He was trembling when serving.
After finally staying up until dinner time, when the meal came, Xiao Ce just took one look at the dishes and said, "Change the chef today."
Zhang Jixiang was frightened when he heard this: "Your Majesty..."
He wanted to say that this person had been a royal cook in the palace for thirty years and had served two generations of kings. How could he be changed at any time?
But when he saw Xiao Ce's cold and cold eyes, all his words were stuck in his throat, and he didn't dare to say anything anymore.
Now we can only wait until the emperor's anger subsides and take back this oral decree.
This day was the most difficult day for Zhang Jixiang since he was on duty with Xiao Ce.
After Qin Zhao returned to Jinyang Palace, he was stunned for a long time, and for some reason he felt melancholy in his heart.
With Xiao Ce's temperament, if she pushed her away, he would naturally not come again, which was probably a good thing. It was better than him always being suspicious and questioning her and Zhao Yu's disconnected relationship every time he thought of Zhao Yu.
She steeled herself and wrote another letter to Xiao Yu, mentioning her falling out with Xiao Ce, but in the end she burned it and did not send it out.
Xiao Yu is no longer the little girl who didn't know anything before. She is already married. If Zheng Jin inherits the title one day, Xiao Yu will be the head of the family, and Xiao Yu will have to handle many matters in the back house by himself.
Just treat this as a test and there is no need for her to worry too much.
But at night, the news about the punishment of many people in Yangxin Palace also started to be discussed in Jinyang Palace.
I don't know who made the rumor, but they all said that she went to Yangxin Palace to meet the Holy Spirit. Xiao Ce seemed to have turned into a tyrant, and even the old imperial chef who had served two generations of kings was dismissed.
