"Tomorrow you will come back to the Yangxin Palace with me." Xiao Ce was very satisfied with Qin Zhao's answer and immediately concluded the matter.
Qin Zhao swallowed everything he said.
She felt that nothing she said could change Xiao Ce's decision, so she might as well go to the Nourishing Heart Palace as he wanted first, and then take action based on the situation.
Furthermore, Xiao Ce is usually so busy, how can she stay with him all the time? Now he is just trying something new on a whim.
"I obey the decree." Qin Zhao thought about it and smiled brilliantly.
Looking at her bright smile, Xiao Ce's eyes became darker and his Adam's apple rolled unconsciously.
When Qin Zhao saw this small detail, she immediately stopped smiling. She had not forgotten her agreement with Xiao Ce. There were still twenty days until the January deadline.
A night of silence.
When Xiao Ce got up the next day, Qin Zhao was still sleeping peacefully. He didn't wake Qin Zhao and just picked her up horizontally.
When Qin Zhao woke up from his sleep, he found himself in the back hall of Yangxin Hall.
She was so deep in sleep that she didn't realize she had moved.
She was thinking about something, and when she looked up, she saw the flush on Baozhu's face and the excitement in her eyes.
"Why do you have such an expression?" Qin Zhao was a little surprised.
Baozhu is the most stable person around her. She usually doesn't show her emotions openly, but today the excitement on her face is so obvious that anyone who is not blind can see it.
"Today the emperor brought the empress in in front of all the attendants of Yangxin Palace. The empress did not see those people's jaws dropped. I am still very excited when I think about it now." Baozhu said eloquently.
Qin Zhao felt speechless. Is this what makes Baozhu excited?
Baozhu still wanted to answer, but Qiu Shui came over with a smile on his face: "Your Majesty will go to have breakfast first. After breakfast, I will take your Majesty to Xinuang Pavilion."
Qin Zhao had no objection, after all, Xiao Ce told her about this last night.
After she had eaten and drank enough, she followed the autumn water to the West Nuan Pavilion.
But when she reached the Xinuang Pavilion, she heard someone discussing something inside, and there was more than one minister.
"I will enter Xinuang Pavilion later." Qin Zhao slowed down.
Now that she has broken in, what will the ministers inside think of Xiao Ce?
"But the emperor has told me to let the slaves bring the queen in directly. The slaves cannot disobey the imperial edict." Qiu Shui looked at Qin Zhao pitifully: "My queen, please."
Qin Zhao:......
Seeing that Qin Zhao was unmoved, Qiu Shui knelt directly on the ground and hugged her thigh: "Empress..."
"Okay, let's get up." Qin Zhao was speechless, and he didn't know where Qiu Shui learned this trick.
Qiu Shui had been sitting on the bench for so long, and suddenly he was re-employed by Xiao Ce. It seemed that Qiu Shui was attracted by Qiu Shui's good acting talent.
The next moment, Qiu Shui stood up happily and led her into Xinuan Pavilion.
When the ministers who were discussing matters suddenly saw Qin Zhao appearing, their voices were all blocked.
Only the emperor, who had a cold and handsome face just now, softened his expression as soon as he saw Qin Zhao, and the coldness in his eyes disappeared completely.
Xiao Ce quickly walked to Qin Zhao and said softly: "Go and sit over there for a while. I will finish my work soon."
Qin Zhao could only pretend to be blind and pretend not to see the cabinet ministers who looked at her strangely. Zhao Yu, on the other hand, had a calm expression and did not look away, as if he had turned a blind eye to her arrival.
She followed Xiao Ce to the separate room. When she saw that all her favorite storybooks were placed inside, her eyes lit up and she gave Xiao Ce a thumbs up: "Your Majesty is awesome!"
He found so many story books to pass the time, so she could stay here for a year and a half, because reading story books is very easy to pass the time.
Xiao Ce patted her head lovingly: "You play here first, I'll be busy first."
Qin Zhao nodded vigorously, "Go ahead, go ahead."
As soon as Xiao Ce walked out of the cubicle, his face immediately changed to a cold one.
The ministers were not surprised when they saw how quickly Xiao Ce changed his face.
Only Liang Shoufu did not hide his dissatisfaction with Qin Zhao. He said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I dare to make this suggestion. The Hall of Yangxin is an important place for the king to discuss matters. It is not appropriate for concubines in the harem to enter, and it is even more inappropriate for the empress to enter when discussing matters. After all, the harem is not allowed."
Interfering in government affairs!"
Qin Zhao was not surprised at all when he heard Liang Shoufu's words. It would be abnormal if Liang Shoufu didn't speak up.
She also felt it was inappropriate, but Xiao Ce still let her come.
Xinuan Pavilion suddenly became quiet, and it took a while for Xiao Ce to speak, but it was to Zhao Yu: "What do Zhao Qing think?"
Zhao Yu looked as usual and responded in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Returning to the emperor, I believe that the Yangxin Hall is both a place for discussion and a resting place for the emperor. In this case, it is reasonable for the concubines of the harem to walk around in the Yangxin Hall. The Empress
She is the emperor's first wife, and coming to Xinuang Pavilion to accompany him is also a matter of husband and wife ethics, and there is no such thing as interfering in government affairs."
When Qin Zhao, who was hiding in the cubicle, heard Zhao Yu's words, his first reaction was that he was worthy of being a close official of Xiao Ce. This was a very useful knife. Zhao Yu would cut wherever Xiao Ce needed to point.
Isn’t this the role of Zhao Yu?
At that time, Chief Liang was so angry that Zhao Yu was half-dead, but he could not lose his composure in front of the emperor. He retorted righteously, but Zhao Yu retorted with all his strength.
What made Liang Shoufu even more angry was that the other ministers sat on the sidelines and did not want to intervene in their verbal disputes.
However, his eloquence was not as good as that of Zhao Yu, and he was finally overpowered by Zhao Yu.
Xiao Ce leisurely drank a few sips of tea, and when he saw that it was almost done, he said: "I asked you to come here to discuss government affairs, not to bicker over trivial matters. If your role can only be on such trivial matters, the cabinet minister can change
People do it.”
All the ministers present are not fools. These words are very targeted, and they are clearly meant for Liang Shoufu.
Liang Shoufu was repeatedly dissatisfied with Qin Zhao and showed no restraint. It is possible that Xiao Ce directly took off Liang Shoufu's hat.
As soon as Xiao Ce said this, the scene fell into deathly silence.
Liang Shoufu was even more sweaty on his forehead. He was a little afraid and did not dare to bring up the topic of Qin Zhao.
Qin Zhao listened with great interest in the cubicle, saying that Xiao Ce, the emperor, was really successful. Not to mention Xiao Ce's political achievements, it was Xiao Ce's dragon power. How many ministers dared to challenge it easily?
Even Liang Shoufu, who thinks highly of himself, still bows his head obediently?
The discussion in Xinuang Pavilion lasted for a full hour before ending.
After the cabinet ministers left, Xiao Ce came to the cubicle.
Qin Zhao was reading the script when she saw Xiao Ce out of the corner of her eye. She waved to Xiao Ce: "Your Majesty, come here."
Xiao Ce followed his words and walked up to Qin Zhao. Unexpectedly, the woman who was punishing him suddenly grabbed his neck and kissed him hard on the face: "Hey, I'll reward you with a kiss."
Xiao Ce's eyes were dark and he looked straight at Qin Zhao.
Qin Zhao pretended not to see the undercurrent in his eyes. She waved her small white hand and said, "Your Majesty, please continue your work. Don't disturb me from reading my script."
