Chapter 1250: Qin Zhao can't be so humble and committed to him
Baozhu knew that Qin Zhao had good hearing. When she saw that Qin Zhao had not smiled for several days, she dismissed the others and asked in a low voice: "Does the empress already know about Ako?"
Qin Zhao didn't shy away from it: "Those people are talking about it every day, and it's hard not to know. But don't worry, I don't care."
No matter how much Ako looks like her, he cannot be her. Everyone in this world is an independent existence. How can they be easily cloned?
Ako was originally brought into the palace by Nian Su. Her appearance was somewhat similar to hers, and she was originally her substitute.
Later, when Ako entered the Department of Economic Affairs, she did not pay attention to Ako, nor did she deal with the palace maid just because Ako looked like her.
Now Ako suddenly returns to Xiao Ce's side. Whether it is a coincidence or someone has planned it is debatable.
Qin Zhao didn't pay much attention to this matter. It was just that Jinyang Palace mentioned A'kou from time to time, so she would be distracted because of A'kou...
There is indeed an additional maid-servant in the Yangxin Hall, and this maid is none other than Ako.
It was a coincidence that Xiao Ce saw A'Kou, but it was also inevitable, because after Empress Dowager Guo was put under house arrest, she became the Si Yi who delivered holy clothes to the Yangxin Hall.
However, A'Kou herself did not know that the Empress Dowager Guo's plan was involved in her next errand of delivering clothes to the Yangxin Palace.
Empress Dowager Guo did not expect at the time that the time when Xiao Ce bumped into Ako was when Qin Zhao angered Xiao Ce.
As soon as Xiao Ce saw Ako, he transferred Ako to serve in front of the emperor.
Qin Zhao was too bold and reckless, and he paid too much attention to Qin Zhao. He needed a palace maid like Ako to divert his attention from Qin Zhao.
Since Ako came to the Yangxin Hall to take charge, the status of the four intellectuals has plummeted. Except for Zhang Jixiang, Ako has the most opportunities to serve in front of the emperor.
In addition to serving tea and water, Ako also works as a book girl. When Xiao Ce has a whim, she also plays the piano and paints.
Ako came from a scholarly family before entering the palace. Later, when her family fell into decline, she was bought by Ren Ya. Later, it was Nian Su who brought her into the palace.
When she was in the Yisi Department, someone specially cultivated her, so she was good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting. In addition, she had a face that looked exactly like Qin Zhao, so Xiao Ce valued her, and the news that she had replaced Qin Zhao was even more important.
Very noisy.
Ako also knew those rumors. She herself had little ambition or desire, and the emperor's regard for her also kept her from being arrogant or impetuous.
But the only disadvantage was that Xiao Ce was too good, and she was afraid that she would be too involved and get too involved in the drama.
She knew very well why she was valued by the emperor, but it was just because her face looked like that of a noble concubine.
She entered the palace in the first place because her face resembled that of a noble concubine.
And she also understood that no matter how much she looked like the imperial concubine, she would never be the imperial concubine.
She told herself not to fall in too deep and not to have delusional thoughts, but when a man as outstanding as Xiao Ce was so close to her, within a few days, she couldn't bear it anymore.
After dinner that day, Ako noticed that Xiao Ce was not in a high mood, so he took the initiative and suggested: "Slave, how about you play a song for the emperor to relieve his boredom?"
Xiao Ce didn't scold her for taking matters into her own hands, so she knew he meant it tacitly.
Akko deliberately wanted to soothe Xiao Ce's bad mood and chose a cheerful song. Coincidentally, when Xiao Ce went to find trouble with Qin Zhao last time, Qin Zhao played the same song "Spring Light" in the study.
》.
Xiao Ce's eyes, which were not anxious at first, were fixed on A'Kou. A'Kou was very good at music. At least he could play it better than Qin Zhao. The music had the same meaning. He couldn't find anything wrong with it, but Xiao Ce unconsciously looked at A'Kou.
Became Qin Zhao.
Akko was originally playing the piano. When she saw a pair of men's black moiré boots next to her, she was a little nervous and played a wrong note.
Xiao Ce woke up in an instant and looked at the top of Ako's head without saying anything.
Ako knelt on the ground and said, "I am not good at playing the piano. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Xiao Ce lightly waved his dragon sleeves: "Step back."
Ako stood up according to the words, walked a few steps away with Qin in his arms, and then looked back at Xiao Ce.
I saw that the person was tall and tall, with unpredictable handsome face and clear facial features. She was a bit prettier than the banished immortal. She was also old. Even if she left the palace in the future, she would not be able to get married. If she could reveal her innocence,
If she gives it to this person, she will have no regrets in her life?
In the past few years after entering the palace, she finally understood her role clearly. She was nothing more than a substitute for the imperial concubine. She didn't care about her status, and the value of her body was only this...
At that moment, she mustered up her courage, turned back to Xiao Ce and said: "I know that the person the emperor wants is the imperial concubine. I feel deeply honored to be the imperial concubine's substitute. I also hope that I will be lucky enough to serve the emperor——"
When she was nervous, she grabbed Xiao Ce's robe leg and looked up at Xiao Ce.
Xiao Ce looked at A'Kou kneeling humbly on the ground and felt that she did look like Qin Zhao, but she could never be Qin Zhao.
It was impossible for Qin Zhao to commit himself to him so humbly...
"Back off." Xiao Ce ordered expressionlessly.
Akko was not surprised by this result. She reluctantly let go of her hand: "After all, I am not a noble concubine. If the emperor no longer wants to see this substitute, can I ask for a favor from the emperor?"
Xiao Ce looked at Ah Kou in confusion and did not answer.
"My slave used to be a scholarly disciple in my family. Later, my family fell into decline and I was sold by someone else. Later I entered the palace. After entering the palace, I realized that I entered the palace because I had a face similar to that of the imperial concubine. Servant
I don’t want to be anyone’s substitute, even if it’s someone as noble as a noble concubine. I still want to have the opportunity to leave the palace, and don’t want to be trapped within the palace walls for the rest of my life.” Ako said slowly.
She knew that the emperor was not a womanizer, and it was not because he liked her that he made her the eldest maid of the Yangxin Palace. The emperor must have had a conflict with the imperial concubine. He didn't want to see the imperial concubine, but he thought about the imperial concubine, so he promoted her.
.
She should be happy, so she tested it just now. The emperor is not the kind of man who is always busy, and he will not favor her just because she is like a noble concubine.
Xiao Ce was silent for a long time. He remembered that Qin Zhao had said that he wanted to go out to the palace more than once. Later, she gave up the idea because of his severe scolding.
Today he heard the words of wanting to leave the palace from Ako again. He was surprised and puzzled at the same time: "Why do you want to leave the palace?"
Is it not good to be on duty at Yangxin Hall?
"This slave is not used to the intrigues here, and I also want to be free. If the emperor kicks this slave out of the Yangxin Hall this time, I will no longer have any value, and I may die here." Ako looked at Xiao Ce with burning eyes.
: "I beg the emperor to give me a favor. If I am allowed to leave the palace, I will definitely work as a cow or a horse in the next life to repay the emperor's kindness."
