Xiao Ce realized it was too late. He shook his sore and swollen arm and ordered Zhang Jixiang: "Jixiang, go see Wu Liangyuan off."
When Wu Xirou heard this, she suddenly smiled: "I can go back by myself, but Eunuch Zhang should wait in front of His Highness."
Xiao Ce looked at Zhang Jixiang, who understood, stepped forward and said, "I will send Wu Liangyuan back."
Zhang Jixiang opened his mouth, but Wu Xirou said nothing more knowingly. She bowed and left.
On the way back to Wangqiuge, Wu Xirou wanted to build a good relationship with Zhang Jixiang and greeted him from time to time. However, Zhang Jixiang answered only one question and did not say a word that should not have been said.
Even she had to sigh that the attendants around Xiao Ce were different from others.
In fact, in Zhang Jixiang's heart, he recognized Qin Zhao as the mistress because of his preconceived notions, so that the other beauties in the East Palace were no different to him.
Although Wu Liangyuan is good at playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and her behavior is very decent and not annoying, that's all.
After sending Wu Xirou back to Wangqiu Pavilion, Zhang Jixiang respectfully resigned.
Wu Xirou also wanted to give Zhang Jixiang a reward, but Zhang Jixiang refused.
"Eunuch Zhang seems to be difficult to get close to. If he can be used by Liangyuan, he will definitely come in handy in the future." Liuli looked at Zhang Jixiang's retreating back, thoughtfully.
As for Qiu Shui, we can't count on it, because Qiu Shui was able to rise to power because Qin Zhao gave Qiu Shui a chance behind his back. Nian Suhui was expelled from the East Palace because of Qin Zhao's relationship.
But Qin Liangdi is very powerful. She can actually influence the fate of the servants around His Royal Highness. Such an opponent is terrifying.
"He is His Highness the Crown Prince's most valued attendant. I can't think too much, otherwise it will be bad for His Highness the Crown Prince to find out. Don't mention this matter again, be careful that walls have ears. Besides, Eunuch Zhang doesn't seem to be bribed.
People, this ends here." Wu Xirou said seriously.
Liuli didn't dare to object and agreed in a low voice.
The East Palace couldn't hide things. The next day, news spread about Qin Zhao falling out of favor and Wu Xirou taking over.
Everyone said that the new Wu Liangyuan was very impressive. She stayed in the main hall until midnight before looking back at the Qiuge Pavilion. I wonder if she was going to bed.
Baoyu also heard the news. This time she did not dare to tell Qin Zhao about it. It was only because of Liangdi that she had an quarrel with His Highness the Crown Prince. If His Highness the Crown Prince turned around and approached Wu Liangyuan, that possibility was very high.
She also knows that Wu Liangyuan is a powerful character.
Qin Zhao didn't know about Wu Xirou here, but Dongxiang passed the news to the palace, about Fan Yuan and Hualou Toupai getting close.
Although she didn't see what Qingyu looked like, she could guess from her temperament that Fan Yuan couldn't find Wu Xirou, so he looked for Wu Xirou's shadow in other women.
Because Qingyu's temperament should be similar to Wu Xirou's, Fan Yuan lingers over it.
If she met such a husband, she might choose to divorce, but Zhuang Qing is not her. Zhuang Qing has to take care of not only the Yongle Marquis Mansion, but also Concubine Shu's face, and the Crown Prince Xiao Ce.
's face.
The person who is suffering the most right now should be Zhuang Qing.
At this moment, she wished she could be by Zhuang Qing's side and help her tide over the difficulties. But she couldn't protect herself, let alone leave the palace. If the Queen Mother didn't help her, she wouldn't even be able to leave Wangyue Residence.
"Everyone has their destiny. Liang Di is nothing more than worried. I believe Miss Zhuang is capable of handling this matter." Baozhu knew that his master was worried about Zhuang Qing and said softly.
Qin Zhao looked at Qin Zhao lying on the railing to enjoy the fish, and she threw a handful of fish food casually: "She can indeed survive. This time I saw Qing'er when I came out of the palace, and I can feel the changes in her from the inside out."
The simple and innocent Zhuang Qing in the past has disappeared. Today, Zhuang Qing will focus on the overall situation and become more and more confident. Such changes may be a good thing, but who doesn't want to live a carefree life forever?
"Liangdi should care more about herself, right?" Baoyu couldn't help but murmured in a low voice after enduring it for a long time.
Baozhu and Qin Zhao looked at her at the same time.
Only then did Baoyu realize that she was talking too much again. She couldn't hide the matter in her heart, so she simply turned around and left.
Qin Zhao looked at Baoyu's back: "What does Baoyu mean by this?"
Bao Zhu shook his head: "I don't even know this."
Qin Zhao sprinkled another handful of fish food, but it was too late for Bao Zhu to stop him. She was afraid that the fish would starve to death.
"If you're in a bad mood, let's go out and relax." Qin Zhao opened his lips calmly.
She felt that there was some rumor that made Baoyu say such a thing.
In this way, accompanied by Baozhu, Qin Zhao left Wangyue Residence.
Qin Zhao soon knew what Baoyu's words meant. After all, the entire East Palace backyard was discussing this matter. She had good hearing and listened to them all.
It turned out that Wu Xirou stayed in the main hall last night and looked back at Qiuge Pavilion. Everyone was speculating that Wu Xirou was going to take the throne.
Qin Liangdi's old love has become a thing of the past and is not worth mentioning.
That girl Baoyu is a good source of information, why should she be sad when she hears these things?
Coincidentally, Wu Xirou came out with the stew and bumped into Qin Zhao.
Seeing Qin Zhao, Wu Xirou was stunned for a while.
However, she reacted very quickly and immediately stepped forward to greet Qin Zhao.
She had also heard some rumors about the rumors circulating in the East Palace. She did not go to bed last night, but by the end of the news, everyone seemed to be sure that she had gone to bed.
When she heard these rumors, she herself felt incredible.
Facing Qin Zhao now, she was afraid that Qin Zhao would be unhappy and make things difficult for her like last time.
"No courtesy." When Qin Zhao's voice sounded from the front, Wu Xirou was a little surprised.
I thought that Qin Zhao would be angry with her when he heard the news about her sleeping with him, but unexpectedly it was just the opposite.
"Where are you going, sister?" Wu Xirou thought to herself. If Qin Zhao went to the main hall, would she avoid it temporarily?
"Just take a stroll, sister, busy with your own business." Qin Zhao smiled as brightly as a flower.
Wu Xirou looked at Qin Zhao's peaceful smile, and she didn't know what kind of complicated feeling she felt in her heart.
Is it because Qin Zhao is confident, or because Qin Zhao doesn't regard her as an opponent at all? Maybe, it's both.
At this time, Qin Zhao had already walked away.
Wu Xirou looked at Qin Zhao's delicate and graceful figure, and suddenly felt a little depressed.
Liuli noticed her master's abnormality and whispered: "Liangyuan, please don't be discouraged. Liangyuan still has a long way to go in the harem in the future. Even though Qin Liangdi is closer to His Highness the Crown Prince than Liang Yuan, as time goes by, His Highness the Crown Prince will definitely
You will find out how good Liangyuan is. As long as His Highness the Crown Prince is in love with Liangyuan for a long time, then Liangyuan will be able to compete with Qin Liangdi."
Just after Liuli finished speaking, she saw Qin Zhao in front of him suddenly turning back to look at her.
She shut up immediately.
At this moment, she actually had a ridiculous illusion, as if Qin Zhao could hear what she just said.
But she lowered her voice just now. It was impossible for Qin Liangdi to hear her from such a distance.
