Seeing Concubine Shu coming, the Queen Mother put down the bowls and chopsticks and asked expressionlessly: "Concubine Shu came here in a hurry because she wants to eat hot pot together?"
It took Concubine Shu a while to control her expression. She was not sure how to answer the question. At this time, Qin Zhao answered: "Concubine Shu's hot pot is also ready. Bao Yuan, why don't you bring it up?"
In this case, it would be equivalent to Xiao Ce having the New Year dinner with Concubine Shu.
Bao Yuan quickly brought up the hot pot base that had been prepared, while Bao Zhu stepped forward and asked Concubine Shu to take a seat.
Because the Queen Mother was also there, Concubine Shu could not refuse, so she took her seat.
After that, Baoyuan was responsible for helping Concubine Shu cook the mutton, and Concubine Shu happened to be closest to Xiao Ce. Seeing her son close by, eating the mutton in the bowl, Concubine Shu felt very complicated.
Her original intention was to cause trouble for Qin Zhao so that Qin Zhao could see clearly who she was, but now she was sitting at the same table as Xiao Ce and eating hot pot together.
I have to say that Qin Zhao is a seasoned person.
Concubine Shu glanced at where Qin Zhao was and saw that she was talking to the Queen Mother: "Eating hot pot can easily lead to internal heat. The Queen Mother might as well drink some soup. This soup can reduce internal heat."
The Queen Mother followed her instructions and took a few sips, and was very satisfied with Qin Zhao's careful and thoughtful work.
This New Year's dinner was the most profound memory she had in the years since she had been in the palace, and it had a very New Year's dinner atmosphere.
"It's a pity that it's not night. If there are fireworks, it would be more fun to eat hot pot while setting off fireworks." Qin Zhao sighed at the side.
She had even prepared fireworks and planned to play with Si Bao and Ru Xi at night, but it was broad daylight and fireworks were of no use.
"You are a child at heart, you love to play and make trouble." The Queen Mother shook her head and laughed.
Concubine Shu next to her felt even more complicated when she saw the doting look in the Queen Mother's eyes when she scolded Qin Zhao.
Qin Zhao was also capable. Not only did he seduce A Ce's soul, but he also conquered people like the Queen Mother. During the years she had been running the harem, the Queen Mother had always been lukewarm towards her.
She knew that the Queen Mother just didn't like her. If it weren't for the prince A Ce, she might not have the chance to show her face in front of the Queen Mother.
Concubine Shu originally wanted to cause trouble for Qin Zhao and make fun of Qin Zhao, but because the Queen Mother was here, the matter could only be shelved for the time being.
In the end, she failed to cause trouble to Qin Zhao, and her appetite was not good. She took a few mouthfuls with a sigh of relief, then hurriedly got up and left Wangyue Residence.
However, Qin Zhao discovered that from the moment Concubine Shu came to Wangyue Residence, Xiao Ce had never looked at Concubine Shu. Even when Concubine Shu came to Wangyue Residence, Xiao Ce did not pay his respects to Concubine Shu.
Not to mention that when Concubine Shu left, Xiao Ce did not get up to see her off.
Under such a strange situation, if there was no conflict between mother and son, she would never believe it.
The Queen Mother had eaten and drank enough and planned to return to Cihe Palace. She specifically asked Qin Zhao to give her a gift.
Qin Zhao knew that the Queen Mother wanted to question her.
"You came to the Ai family because you were afraid that Concubine Shu would come and cause trouble, right?" The Queen Mother didn't waste any time and went straight to the point.
Qin Zhao said with shame: "I can't hide anything from your Majesty. I don't know why His Highness the Crown Prince didn't go to Changqiu Palace to have New Year's dinner with Concubine Shu. I couldn't persuade His Highness the Crown Prince, and I was afraid that today's New Year would make Concubine Shu unhappy, so I thought
Please ask a big shot like the Queen Mother to be the peacemaker. No, with the Queen Mother sitting in the battle, Concubine Shu's anger will be dissipated. It's the Chinese New Year, a big day that comes once a year. Harmony brings wealth."
The Queen Mother smiled: "You are just a ghost."
Her small mouth looks like it has been smeared with honey, no wonder Ah Ce likes it.
"That's because I have been with the Queen Mother for a long time, and my brain has improved a lot. It is all because of the Queen Mother's good teaching." Qin Zhao did not forget to give the Queen Mother the ecstasy soup.
The Queen Mother was coaxed to laugh out loud. When the laughter gradually subsided, the Queen Mother motioned for Qin Zhao to be sent here: "It's cold outside. Come back. The Ai family will return to Cihe Palace."
"Farewell to the Queen Mother!!" Qin Zhao said loudly.
The Queen Mother waved her hand and drove her away on foot.
After seeing off the empress dowager, Qin Zhao turned around happily, only to find that Li Chenghui was standing behind her at some point, with an unsightly expression.
"It's Chinese New Year, who provoked my sister?" Qin Zhao was in a very good mood and asked with a bright smile.
She had just finished eating the hot pot, her face was rosy and her eyes were flowing, and she was so beautiful that it made people heartbroken.
Li Chenghui became angry when she saw Qin Zhao's monster-like face. She suppressed the anger in her heart and replied coldly: "I don't understand what sister is talking about."
"So my sister was still so stupid during the Chinese New Year? I thought that by the last day of this year, my sister would become a little smarter. It seems that I still underestimated my sister's IQ." Qin Zhao patted his face: "Innocent
It's cold, I won't bother my sister to blow the cold air."
Li Chenghui looked at Qin Zhao's back coldly, his angry eyes wishing to poke a hole in her back.
When Lu Xin saw Qin Zhao returning to Wangyue Residence, she stamped her feet in anger: "This Qin Liangdi is so irritating!"
My master is obviously a eloquent person, but Qin Liangdi is always so angry that he can't speak.
"She is the only one who speaks well. His Royal Highness the Prince used to dote on her, but now even the Queen Mother has been bribed by her. It was supposed to be a foolproof thing, but she invited the Queen Mother to Wangyue Residence, breaking my game!" Li Chenghui!
Clench your fists.
She thought that Qin Zhao would suffer disaster this time and be taught by Concubine Shu that he could not hold his head high and conduct himself as a human being. In the end, Concubine Shu's trip to Wangyue Residence was in vain.
"Chenghui, please listen to Fengxuan first. It's windy outside. If our plan fails, there will always be a chance to deal with Qin Liangdi in the future. I don't believe it. Qin Liangdi has such good luck every time." Lu Xin shivered from the cold.
Some can't stand anymore.
Li Chenghui went to Tingfengxuan, and when she passed by Wangyueju, she frowned: "The worst thing I'm afraid of is that Qin Liangdi had expected that Empress Shu would come to trouble her, so she brought in the Empress Dowager as a reinforcement. If that's the case..."
Qin Zhao definitely has such a plan. If Qin Zhao can predict everything, how will she deal with Qin Zhao?
She suddenly felt that it was too difficult for her to get rid of Qin Zhao as her opponent.
Shortly after Li Chenghui's master and servant left, Nian Su, who was hiding not far away watching a play, appeared.
Qin Zhao in this life is indeed difficult to deal with, but with Concubine Shu around, Qin Zhao will definitely not get any favors. Concubine Shu was not able to cause trouble on New Year's Eve this time, but Concubine Shu was already holding back a secret in her heart.
Stomach gas.
In the future, if he just waits for a suitable opportunity, or waits for Concubine Shu to become the Queen Mother, Qin Zhao's good days will come to an end.
As for Li Chenghui, although he is not very useful, he has a way of stirring up disputes, which may come in handy in the future.
If she stays in the main hall, she can stir up trouble at the right time. She will have many opportunities to deal with Qin Zhao in the future. The days are long and she is not in a hurry.
