This lunch was very boring, so Qin Zhao didn't think too much about it. After all, Xiao Ce had such a temper. He was very kind to him for not getting angry today.
After lunch, everyone left Kunning Palace one by one in a tacit understanding.
After seeing off the sisters, Qin Zhao turned back to look at Xiao Ce, who had an unarguable expression, stepped forward and asked, "Is the emperor angry?"
Xiao Ce glanced at her briefly and did not answer.
Qin Zhao smiled and hugged his waist: "You are the emperor, please be more generous and don't be as knowledgeable as your concubines, okay?"
Xiao Ce looked at Qin Zhao helplessly, actually wanting to ask her if she didn't care about him. Otherwise, why would she sell him to those women? Even if it was just for a meal, it made him uncomfortable.
When Qin Zhao saw that Xiao Ce was silent, he didn't bother to coax her any more. He was the emperor anyway and didn't have much free time to vent his anger on her.
It was just a meal, so many people were together, and it wasn't like he was selling himself off, so why did he stay angry for so long?
"I still have something to do, so I'll leave first." Xiao Ce pushed Qin Zhao away indifferently.
Qin Zhao thought he really had something to do, so he waved his hand and said, "Then the emperor, go and do your work."
This time Xiao Ce walked away without looking back.
Qin Zhao looked at Xiao Ce's back and felt that he had broad shoulders and long legs, and his body proportions were really good. In terms of body shape alone, he was also a walking hormone.
She slept for a while in the afternoon, and then went to practice riding and shooting after waking up. She still felt that this was the first battle with Seth after ascending the throne, so she should not be careless.
She was still very busy in the next few days, but Baozhu reminded her that Xiao Ce had not been to Kunning Palace for several days.
Except for the days of Empress Dowager Guo's national mourning, Xiao Ce had never been away from Kunning Palace for such a long time.
"The emperor may be angry, isn't the empress worried?" Baozhu whispered to Qin Zhao.
Qin Zhao's eyebrows twisted slightly: "Even if you are angry, how many days will it take?"
Wouldn't it be just to let him have a meal with her and have a few more spoiled guests at the same time?
"As your Majesty said, a man's heart is as deep as the bottom of his heart. Your Majesty has not ignored your Majesty like this for a long time. Would you like your Majesty to be more proactive?" Bao Zhu suggested in a low voice.
Qin Zhao was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "No need, I'm going to go and play with Sister Wu today."
Bao Zhu pursed her lips and smiled, but didn't ask any more questions.
She could see that the empress had listened, but she just wanted to save face and not go to the emperor.
Later, Qin Zhao did go to chat with Wu Xirou. Wu Xirou saw that Qin Zhao was worried and asked curiously: "What's wrong with Sister Qin?"
"Nothing." Qin Zhao didn't want to mention to Wu Xirou that he had a conflict with Xiao Ce, as this would appear to be very hypocritical.
Think about it, all the women in the harem want Xiao Ce's eyes to look at her with pity, but she is depressed because of the conflict with Xiao Ce. How will Wu Xirou feel after hearing this?
"I know even if my sister doesn't tell me, she must be having trouble with the emperor." Wu Xirou saw through Qin Zhao's thoughts at a glance.
She has news about Xiao Ce. Xiao Ce has not been to Kunning Palace in recent days. In the past, Xiao Ce would go to Kunning Palace to stay overnight no matter how busy he was. Rain or shine did not change.
Since they had lunch at Kunning Palace that day, Xiao Ce has stopped going to Kunning Palace. Doesn't this mean that Xiao Ce is dissatisfied with Qin Zhao for taking matters into his own hands and treating him as a lucky draw?
If he didn't care about Qin Zhao, Xiao Ce would definitely not be angry about this matter, but it's just because Xiao Ce cares about Qin Zhao that he can't tolerate a grain of sand in his eyes...
"Sister Wu is quite smart." Qin Zhao admitted without any need to evade.
"If the emperor has deliberately been cold to my sister in the past few days, it's just because he cares about her attitude. The emperor may think that my sister doesn't care about him that much, and he feels uncomfortable." Wu Xirou felt that this was a reasonable reason.
Qin Zhao laughed when he heard this.
She didn't expect that one day Wu Xirou would become an expert in reconciling her and Xiao Ce's relationship. This was incredible.
"Sister needs to be softer from time to time, not to help the emperor, but..." Wu Xirou thought about her words before continuing: "The emperor may also want to feel a sense of security. I want to know if my sister cares about him."
After all, a man like Xiao Ce doesn't understand love for half his life.
With another woman like Qin Zhao, Xiao Ce may be even more insecure than Qin Zhao.
Qin Zhao raised his eyebrows lightly: "My sister is going to become an emotional expert."
"I love what the emperor loves. It is impossible for me to win the emperor's heart in this life, so I hope that the emperor can get what he wants and be surrounded by my sister's love." Wu Xirou smiled as she spoke: "I am so
It’s incredible that a selfish person can become like this.”
Qin Zhao smiled and felt that Wu Xirou looked exactly like the heroine in ancient torture novels.
She was obviously such a proud woman, but she became something else for a man who couldn't love her.
Even when she loved Xiao Ce the most, she never changed herself for Xiao Ce.
If you change yourself into another person for a man, doesn’t that mean you completely deny yourself? What’s the point of that?
So Qin Zhao couldn't understand why Wu Xirou could be so calm. If it were her, she would never be so generous if she loved a man who didn't love her.
If you can't be a lover, you can't be a friend, you can only be a stranger. This is her view of love.
After chatting with Wu Xirou, Qin Zhao had nothing to do and went to see Xiao Ce.
Wu Xirou, a fake love expert, was right when she said that it was her fault that made Xiao Ce unhappy, and she should really smooth things over for Xiao Ce.
"Is it not sincere for me to go there empty-handed like this?" Qin Zhao asked Baozhu.
Baozhu pretended to think for a while and then said: "I think this is the greatest sincerity that your Majesty brings to your door."
Naturally, there is no one more suitable for coaxing the emperor than the empress herself. Even if there are no auxiliary aids, the empress is enough.
Qin Zhao pinched Baozhu's face: "You girl is getting better and better at talking."
Baozhu smiled: "What I said is true."
Qin Zhao went to Xinuan Pavilion without letting anyone know.
She stood quietly beside Xiao Ce, taking Zhang Jixiang's place, and helped with the ink grinding.
Xiao Ce seemed not to notice her arrival and never looked at her.
Qin Zhao didn't say anything, just watching the handsome man working openly and openly.
She thought Xiao Ce didn't know she was coming, but she didn't know that Xiao Ce smelled her unique smell just after she entered the Nuan Pavilion.
It's just that he didn't expect that she could be so calm after finally taking the initiative to come to him.
On the surface, he is dealing with government affairs, but his heart has long been taken away by her. He is restless and restless. How can he calm down and focus on business?
Xiao Ce was also at odds with Qin Zhao, and he wanted to see when Qin Zhao would speak.
At this time, Qin Zhao didn't know that Xiao Ce was still vomiting at her. Seeing that Xiao Ce was still busy at lunch time, she felt sorry for his stomach.
After making sure that lunch was ready, she said softly: "Your Majesty, how about we have lunch first. No matter how heavy the work is, it is not as important as the Emperor's dragon body."
