"Liangdi's chess skills have improved a lot recently. Why don't your highness come and play a game with Liangdi." Ruxi said, giving up her position.
As soon as Xiao Ce heard that Qin Zhao's chess skills had improved, he immediately became interested. He didn't give Qin Zhao a chance to refuse and issued an order: "Zhao Zhao, you play a game with me."
Qin Zhao glared at Ruxi and felt that she must have done it on purpose.
"I'm not good at chess, why don't I let the teacher play chess with His Highness?" Qin Zhao resisted with all his heart.
"This is an order, sit down!" Xiao Ce naturally did not give Qin Zhao a chance to refuse.
Qin Zhao was extremely depressed: "Your Highness is really acting like a prince as soon as he comes. Be careful of my revenge, so that Your Highness cannot win."
Xiao Ce naturally would not take Qin Zhao's words seriously.
When the game officially started, Xiao Ce discovered that, as Ru Xi said, Qin Zhao's chess skills had indeed improved.
At the moment, he did not dare to underestimate the enemy and concentrated on playing chess with Qin Zhao.
But Qin Zhao suffered a lot, because he didn't dare to win against Xiao Ce and couldn't lose too obviously, so he had to think hard so that his loss would not be so fake.
After about half an hour, she finally lost to Xiao Ce and was defeated.
"I just said that I can't do it, but Your Highness wants to drag me to play chess. Your Highness has humiliated me again. Are you satisfied?" Qin Zhao said and pulled Ruxi down and sat down: "Teacher, help me defeat Your Highness!"
Ruxi suppressed a smile and said, "Your Highness is very skilled in chess, and I may not be your opponent."
Xiao Ce was still immersed in the game of chess just now.
I don't know if it was his misunderstanding, but he always felt that every step Qin Zhao took was exquisite. However, every time he thought he was going to lose, Qin Zhao destroyed the Great Wall again.
If he hadn't known that Qin Zhao's chess skills were not that good, he would have thought that Qin Zhao was asking him to play chess just now.
Probably he was overthinking it.
After that, Qin Zhao was too lazy to watch chess anymore and planned to go out to Wangyue residence and maybe get some useful information.
She used to like playing chess because she always lost. Ever since she was able to beat Ruxi, she felt that playing chess was not as attractive as before.
Just like you always want to get something you can't get, and once you get it, you feel it's nothing more than that. It's the same principle.
"Come back!" Xiao Ce saw Qin Zhao wanting to leave and called her.
"I'm afraid that I'll disturb His Highness's chess game here. Your Highness, please play slowly. I'll go out for a walk." Qin Zhao was too lazy to pay attention to Xiao Ce, rubbed oil on the soles of his feet, and slipped away!
Xiao Ce looked at Qin Zhao's back and shook his head helplessly.
There was only one Qin Zhao in the entire East Palace who dared to disobey his order. He didn't come to Wangyueju once for half a month, and she didn't make any noise, fight, or fight. He finally had time to come, but she ran faster than anyone else.
"When I came to Wangyue Residence, did Zhao Zhao learn anything useful?" Xiao Ce asked casually.
Ruxi said to her heart that Qin Liangdi was much more motivated than His Highness the Crown Prince and lived a fulfilling life every day.
"Liangdi is very motivated. She has learned music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Except for not being good at painting and poetry, she has made rapid progress in other aspects." Ruxi did not dare to lie in front of Xiao Ce and answered truthfully.
"Are you sure?!" Xiao Ce thought that Ru Xi was protecting his shortcomings and did not believe Ru Xi's words.
"Everything I say, slave, is true." Ruxi did not dare to say more, for fear of accidentally leaking the truth about Qin Zhao's sudden transformation into a genius.
"That girl has a way of winning people's hearts." Xiao Ce opened his lips indifferently, sure that Ruxi's words were not true.
People like him are won over by Qin Zhao's sweet words, which is also Qin Zhao's advantage.
"Qin Liangdi treats people sincerely. This may be the reason why everyone likes Liangdi. As for what I just said, your Highness will know it is true when you have the opportunity in the future." Ruxi thought that when His Highness the Crown Prince discovers how powerful Qin Liangdi is, he will probably do the same.
Dumbfounded.
That day, Qin Zhao left Wangyue Residence, followed closely by Bao Zhu, who asked in confusion: "Why does Liang Di always like to go out and walk around recently?"
"The weather is fine, it's a waste of God's kindness to stay at Wangyueju." Qin Zhao said, slowing down.
Because she walked near Wangchun Pavilion, which is the Villa where He Liangdi lived.
He Liangdi disappeared for a long time. It seemed that the East Palace no longer had the character of He Liangdi. Sometimes even she would forget about He Liangdi.
But at this moment...
In Wangchun Pavilion, Xiangqiao brought some snacks and handed them to He Liangdi. He Liangdi turned a blind eye and asked quietly: "Are you sure that the Laba porridge incident was not caused by the imperial concubine?"
"Although I have no evidence, I feel that given the character of His Highness the Crown Prince, if it was true that the Imperial Concubine had killed two palace men and wanted to blame Concubine Shu and Qin Liangdi, His Highness the Crown Prince would not have treated her so lightly. This is certain.
I have something to hide." It was Xiang Ling who replied.
She usually doesn't have a strong sense of presence, but when He Liangdi needs it, she can come in handy.
"It makes sense. But this case has been decided. Even if I have doubts, I can't make any further comments. I just want to know what is the reason that made His Highness the Crown Prince reveal this matter. By the way, how is the Emperor's health?
?" He Liangdi's conversation suddenly changed.
"I don't know whether it's because it's too cold or for other reasons, but the emperor's health has not been getting better. There is also news that if things continue like this, the emperor may never get better again..."
It was Xiangqiao who answered, but she kept her voice very low for fear that Qiao might have ears.
"You can just say this kind of treacherous and unethical words in Wangchun Pavilion, but they must not be spread into Yangxin Palace. Having said that, I am Liang Di. After His Highness the Crown Prince ascends the throne, I may still be one of the four concubines. It's just that I am Liangdi.
The position of noble concubine cannot belong to me." A trace of resentment flashed in He Liangdi's eyes.
"Why doesn't Liangdi think of a way to get rid of Qin Liangdi?" Lingqiao brought up the old story again.
Qin Liangdi is so beautiful. She sends all good things to Wangyue Residence. Obviously their master is also Liangdi, but His Highness the Crown Prince has not come to Wangchun Pavilion for a long time.
Before Qin Liangdi entered the East Palace, His Highness the Crown Prince would occasionally show his face.
Unless Qin Liangdi is eliminated, their master will never have a chance to ascend to power.
"If I don't take action, many people will naturally take action. In the future, I only need to find a foolproof opportunity to take action. Before that, I can't act rashly, let alone let Qin Liangdi guard against me..."
Qin Zhao, who seemed to be wandering near Wangchun Pavilion, muttered when he heard this: "Well done."
"What did Liangdi say?" Baozhu asked in confusion.
Qin Zhao looked at the sky and sighed softly: "I have many enemies, and they are all eager to get rid of me. But, they can't stand me, and they can't get rid of me. This should be the plot of Shuangwen."
Bao Zhu looked confused. Why did she feel that Liang Di was getting weirder and weirder?
Anyway, she couldn't understand a word Liangdi said.
At this time Liangdi was murmuring to herself again: "I didn't know before that she actually wanted to be a concubine?"
"Who did Liang Di say wants to be a concubine?" Bao Zhu was extremely curious.
