After the dynasty dispersed, Xiao Yi specifically called Zhao Yu to test Zhao Yu's attitude.
Zhao Yu didn't wait for him to speak and said, "Zhuo Jing is feeling unwell. I'm eager to go home for a visit, so I'll take my leave first."
When Xiao Yi saw Zhao Yu walking away without looking back, he immediately understood that Zhao Yu wanted to draw a clear line with him.
Different ways do not lead to mutual conspiracy. Since Zhao Yu does not know good from evil, if Zhao Yu stands on the opposite side of him in the future, he will be the enemy he must get rid of first.
Zhao Yu ignored Xiao Yi, but many ministers expressed their kindness to Xiao Yi. These people were usually just outsiders, but now that they knew that Xiao Ce could not move, they naturally wanted to find someone to rely on.
Xiao Yi is undoubtedly the best candidate to surrender.
By the time Xiao Yi finished dealing with these ministers, it was already half an hour later.
With Qin Zhao in mind, he went to Kunning Palace.
He was stopped in front of the dormitory, "Your Highness Prince An, please stop! My Majesty told me that I haven't seen anyone in the past few days!"
"I just want to see if the emperor's sister-in-law is okay, please get out of the way." Xiao Yi said patiently.
Upon seeing this, Baozhu knelt down in front of Xiao Yi: "Please, Your Highness King An, please stop forcing the Queen. The Queen finally calmed down, and she even had fetal contractions. She just calmed down. If anything goes wrong with the Queen, all servants
I can’t afford it.”
Xiao Yi frowned and looked at Baozhu, hesitated for a moment and then said: "I will leave after taking one look at the emperor's sister-in-law."
Baozhu knelt on the ground and did not stop Xiao Yi this time.
Xiao Yi was about to step into the bedroom when suddenly a vase was thrown over and hit him. The vase just missed hitting him.
"Get out!!" Qin Zhao, with long hair shawl, shouted at Xiao Yi at the top of his lungs.
Xiao Yi saw her pale face and was afraid that her excitement would affect her health, so he had to stand where he was: "Brother Chen, please leave now. Sister-in-law, don't be angry. Your health is important."
His eyes flashed slightly, and he suddenly thought that it would be okay if the fetus in her belly was gone. He was only worried that if the fetus was lost, she would not be able to bear such stimulation.
And the child was four months old, and he couldn't let her risk it.
After several struggles, he still chose to give in and left Kunning Palace.
Seeing that Qin Zhao had successfully driven away Xiao Yi, he lay down on the bed and continued to have the baby. It was her good fortune to have a peaceful life in a few days. Now it depends on when Xiao Ce returns to the palace.
She thought that when Xiao Ce sent this family letter back to the palace at this time, Xiao Ce must have already had a complete plan. In other words, Xiao Ce would not wait until the war was over before returning.
Xiao Ce's move is nothing more than testing everyone's reaction after he "falls"...
The fact was just as Qin Zhao expected, she lived a peaceful life for several days. Xiao Yi did not come to Kunning Palace to find her, but Zuo Zhaorong came several times, but was blocked outside Kunning Palace and could not
Close to Qin Zhao's body.
Xianfu Palace.
Zuo Zhaorong hadn't seen Qin Zhao for several days, and his expression was a bit solemn.
"What are Empress Zhaorong worried about?" Hongxian looked at Zuo Zhaorong with something on his mind.
Zuo Zhaorong looked out the window at the continuous rain, and frowned slightly: "I suspect Qin Zhao is getting suspicious."
To be precise, Qin Zhao had been suspicious of her early on. But she didn't feel too good this time!
Although a person like her is good at calculations, she doesn't think she is omnipotent, let alone thinks Qin Zhao is stupid.
On the contrary, Qin Zhao is very smart. Facing an opponent like Qin Zhao, she cannot be careless.
This was a life-and-death battle, and she was afraid that she would lose everything she owned accidentally.
"Even if the Queen is suspicious of the master, she can't guard against it. As long as the Queen is dealing with the master, the master will have the opportunity to take action." Hongxian reassured.
Zuo Zhaorong shook his head and sighed: "Then you are wrong. As long as you are not fully sure, you cannot act rashly, because there is only one chance. It is either success or failure, and I have no retreat after failure."
Qin Zhao is by no means a soft persimmon and is difficult to handle. In addition, Xiao Yi is targeting Qin Zhao. If she takes action rashly and Xiao Yi finds out, she may not be able to survive.
"I shouldn't be too eager." Zuo Zhaorong muttered to himself.
Even if Qin Zhaozhen enters Xiao Yi's harem, she will have many opportunities to take action in the future, so why make a move without being sure?
She has never been aggressive in nature before.
When she learned that Xiao Ce was unable to move, her first thought was that Qin Zhao would have no backer in the future and she could not let Qin Zhao take away her rightful position.
But she forgot how difficult Qin Zhao was.
I'm afraid she won't be able to bear the consequences of underestimating the enemy.
"Then let's plan slowly and don't take action until we have the right opportunity." Hongxian immediately understood what Zuo Zhaorong meant.
Zuo Zhaorong made a decision and relaxed: "Do you still remember the late Queen Mother Guo?"
"Of course I remember!" Hongxian replied immediately.
"That woman was bullied by Concubine Wu for twenty years, but she finally became the ultimate winner of that harem because she could keep her composure! Even if she failed to defeat Qin Zhao in the end, Empress Dowager Guo is still a master I can learn from.
." Zuo Zhaorong opened his lips calmly.
Red Line takes it for granted.
Empress Dowager Guo was indeed the ultimate winner, but in the end, Empress Qin was protected by the emperor, so Empress Dowager Guo was defeated of course.
"I think the Queen is very powerful. During her time in the East Palace, she was able to defeat Concubine Wu every time. Later, when the Emperor ascended the throne, she was able to defeat Empress Dowager Guo completely. She was also able to escape from our plans every time...
…”
If the red thread hadn't been finished, how could Zuo Zhaorong not know?
"I will go to Kunning Palace tomorrow." Zuo Zhaorong made a decision: "By the way, is there any news about the emperor coming out today?"
"No, His Highness Prince An has not received the latest news." Hongxian quickly responded.
"It stands to reason that if he is really poisoned, the emperor cannot survive for too long. It will take time for the news to spread from the border. Calculating the date of poisoning, the emperor may have..."
Zuo Zhaorong was about to speak but stopped.
But Hongxian understood clearly. What his master meant was that Jinshang might have died, but the news had not reached Kyoto yet.
Or maybe they didn't dare to spread the news while the two countries were at war, because they were afraid of causing civil strife in Daqi.
Thinking that Xiao Ce might be dead, Zuo Zhaorong suddenly laughed.
As long as she thinks that her biggest supporter who usually protects Qin Zhao is gone, her mood will be very bright. Even looking at the rainy sky, she feels particularly beautiful.
She suddenly wanted to see Qin Zhao's heartbroken look with her own eyes...
Qin Zhao got up early the next day. She had been in good mental condition. However, she had been closed to guests for the past few days, and everyone felt that she was heartbroken.
In order to continue to act well, she put a little powder on her face and her lip color was a bit dry, which made her look very clear.
"How do you like this makeup look on me?" Qin Zhao raised his brows at Baozhu proudly.
