Qin Zhao examined herself in the mirror and felt that her makeup was really good. People who saw her later must have thought that she had not had a good rest in the past few days because she was worried that Xiao Ce would not want to drink tea or eat.
If nothing unexpected happens, Zuo Zhaorong will definitely come over today to find out the truth.
She avoided it for a few days, and if she meets Zuo Zhaorong today, she might be able to see Zuo Zhaorong reveal his true face.
When Zuo Zhaorong came to Kunning Palace, Qin Zhao was having breakfast.
It took her half an hour to have breakfast before going down to see Zuo Zhaorong with Baozhu's support.
The moment Zuo Zhaorong saw Qin Zhao, his face was full of concern: "Is sister okay?"
Qin Zhao nodded slightly and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm fine."
"Has any news about the emperor reached the palace recently?" Zuo Zhaorong looked at Qin Zhao's face.
She felt that Qin Zhao's face was very ugly. She said that the most beautiful woman in the harem was nothing more than this. Qin Zhao who lost Xiao Ce was like a delicate flower that lost the moisture of rain and dew, and his whole body was about to wither.
Already.
"There is no news about the Emperor for the time being, but no news is the best news. It is impossible for a person like the Emperor to be fine." Qin Zhao said firmly.
Looking at Qin Zhao who was pretending to be strong, Zuo Zhaorong sighed hypocritically: "Sister, I still have to prepare for the worst..."
When Qin Zhao heard this, he was unhappy and shouted in a deep voice: "What's the worst preparation? Can my sister speak? Your Majesty is fine, I have confidence in you. The one you love most in your life is me, he won't
You might get yourself into trouble!!"
She spoke like a cannon, speaking fast and urgently. At first glance, it sounded like she had confidence in Xiao Ce, but upon closer inspection, it sounded like she didn't have that much confidence.
At least according to Zuo Zhaorong's self-righteous interpretation, Qin Zhao's words seemed more like an attempt to seal the truth.
In her heart, she felt that Qin Zhao was a pitiful person, but she did not act against Qin Zhao at this time. Instead, she lowered her attitude and said, "My sister can't speak. Sister, please don't get too anxious."
Qin Zhao returned to normal at this time, but his face was still too pale: "Sister, if you can't speak, talk less. The emperor will return safely soon."
Speaking of this, Qin Zhao's voice gradually became quieter: "The emperor told me before leaving the palace that he would come back as soon as possible. He also wants to return to the palace before I give birth."
Tears gradually filled her eyes, and she looked particularly pitiful.
Zuo Zhaorong secretly sneered that Qin Zhao would be where he is today? Without Xiao Ce's support, Qin Zhao would be nothing.
Before today, Qin Zhao was strong, but from now on, Qin Zhao is destined to decline. She is just the opposite, and her good days are about to begin.
Seeing that Qin Zhao's play was almost finished, Bao Zhu coughed slightly and answered from the side: "Yes, the emperor loves your empress so much, and will definitely return to the palace to accompany her as soon as possible."
"Sister, don't stay alone and think wildly. Why don't you let me go for a walk with your sister and get some fresh air outside?" Zuo Zhaorong echoed Baozhu's words.
"Yes, yes, Empress Zhaorong is chatting with the Empress to prevent the Empress from having random thoughts..."
"Baozhu, I don't have any random thoughts!" Qin Zhao's face changed slightly and he shouted towards Baozhu.
Baozhu's expression changed and he lowered his head to admit his mistake.
Zuo Zhaorong said nice words again, and finally persuaded Qin Zhao to go out with her for a walk.
Her plan was to go to the Imperial Garden. If some people surrounded Qin Zhao in the Imperial Garden and further stimulated Qin Zhao, they might even be able to cause Qin Zhao to have a miscarriage.
If you can kill two people with one body, that would be great.
In the past few days, in addition to Zuo Zhaorong who wanted to see Qin Zhao, there were other concubines who were also eager to see Qin Zhao and inquire about Xiao Ce's situation.
Although everyone in this harem is a widow and rarely have the chance to see Xiao Ce, at least they still have a status.
If Xiao Ce dies suddenly, does that mean everyone will be widowed?
Furthermore, the only one with a higher status was Zuo Zhaorong, and the others were below the ninth concubine. They could not become concubines, so there was only one place to go, to practice at Ganye Temple.
They are still so young, so of course they don't want to live such a poor life, let alone believe that Xiao Ce will never come back from this trip.
Many people were paying attention to the news in Kunning Palace. When everyone knew that Qin Zhao had gone to the Imperial Garden, many people rushed over to create a chance for them to meet by chance.
When Qin Zhao saw these people walking around in front of him, he was no exception, but he still had to have some drama.
When the first group of people came over to ask Qin Zhao for information, Qin Zhaoyi gave a stern answer.
The first group of people were sent away, and soon a second group of people came. This group of people also asked about Xiao Ce.
"I have said that the emperor will return to the palace soon. My sisters think it is because they are living too leisurely that they believe those unfounded rumors." When Qin Zhao answered with a pale face, he was not very convincing.
force.
Everyone looked at each other and became even more panicked after asking Qin Zhao.
They looked at Zuo Zhaorong, hoping that Zuo Zhaorong could give them a shot in the arm.
Zuo Zhaorong pretended not to see anything and just sat on the wall and watched.
Soon a third group of people came. They surrounded Qin Zhao again and asked about Xiao Ce. This time Qin Zhao was a little out of control: "Are you all hoping that something will happen to the emperor?!"
Her question made everyone fall silent, but everyone's hearts were at a loss as well.
Qin Zhao, who has always been calm and self-possessed, has such a changeable mood. Doesn't this mean that something has really happened to Xiao Ce?
Their hopes at first were all false, but now it seems that their men may never come back.
"There are a lot of people talking here. Can I accompany you back to Kunning Palace?" Baozhu said to Qin Zhao worriedly.
Qin Zhao nodded slightly, and she felt that the play was almost over.
She just wanted Xiao Yi and Zuo Zhaorong to relax their vigilance, to make them believe that something had indeed happened to Xiao Ce, and to make them believe that she had really been greatly stimulated.
"I have the courage to ask, if the emperor cannot come back, how will the empress deal with us people?!" Someone bravely asked Qin Zhaodao.
Qin Zhao was stunned and thought that these people really got the point.
Humans are all self-interested animals, so it seems normal to think about ourselves so quickly.
"I said that the emperor will return to the palace safely! Let's drive back to Kunning Palace." Qin Zhao was too lazy to pay attention to everyone anymore and turned back the way he came.
Zuo Zhaorong glanced at the many people present and wondered why these people didn't surround Qin Zhao and push him a few times. It would be a good opportunity to attack Qin Zhao in the chaos, and she could stay out of it.
In the end, she didn't dare to take action. She followed Qin Zhao and sent Qin Zhao back to Kunning Palace before leaving.
After Qin Zhao was sure that Zuo Zhaorong was far away, he said with a smile, "Zuo Zhaorong must be hoping something unexpected happens to me."
"To be honest, there were so many people there just now, and I was a little scared. Before the emperor returns to the palace, why don't you go out less?" Baozhu said softly.
