The Queen Mother played chess calmly and Qin Zhao rarely had the patience to give the Queen Mother hints while eating snacks and fruits.
The Queen Mother looked at her contented look and said, "How can you give such a hint to your opponent?"
This girl is pretending to be playing chess.
"I think it's very fun. Chess is an intellectual game. The most important thing is the process of fighting wits and courage, not the result of winning or losing." Qin Zhao has his own fallacy.
Of course, the result of playing chess against your opponent is very important.
But the Queen Mother actually felt that what this girl said made sense.
Here they played chess in a thoughtful manner, but Ruxi was very fast. After getting the pearls that had been drilled by the craftsmen, they began to modify the buckles.
Qin Zhao was the first to get close to the dress and take a closer look. He found that there was no trace of where the buckles had been replaced. Ruxi's craftsmanship was truly outstanding.
The Queen Mother was full of praise after seeing it and praised Ruxi's embroidery skills.
After that, the Queen Mother specially rewarded Ruxi. Ruxi accepted the reward and saw that it was getting late, so she said goodbye and left the palace.
Qin Zhao originally wanted to keep Ruxi overnight, but Ruxi said that the shop was too busy right now. She stayed in the palace for a long time today. Zhuang Qing must be in a hurry to find someone.
Qin Zhao couldn't persuade him to stay any longer, so he asked Baoyuan to take Ruxi back to the clothing store in person.
Here Ruxi left the palace, and the Queen Mother also wanted to return to Cihe Palace.
Qin Zhao helped the Queen Mother out of Wangyue Residence, and the Queen Mother patted the back of her hand: "The Ai family has not been as happy as today for a long time."
The emperor had few heirs, there were only three princes in total, Ace was cold-hearted and did not want to get close to her. King An lived outside the palace and rarely entered the palace, and the other one was too young and had too naughty temper.
There are also a few princesses who only come to Cihe Palace during holidays. Although she doesn't say it, she still feels a little regretful that these children are not close to her.
She also didn't expect that Zhao Yatou would let her enjoy family happiness one day.
The only regret is that Qin Zhao did not give birth to a son and a half for A Ce...
"How have you been taking care of yourself lately?" The Queen Mother still couldn't help but ask.
Qin Zhao was stunned for a moment before he calmed down. The Queen Mother asked her if she could have a child.
She said: "I have been taking medicine, and I don't know if I can recover well."
"You look like a lucky kid. God won't be willing to treat you poorly." The Queen Mother said as she climbed up the stairs.
"According to your good wishes, I would like to send you my concubine." Qin Zhao respectfully sent her off.
Until the Queen Mother walked away, she let out an almost inaudible sigh.
After half a year's worth of medicine was finished, Luo Qing never entered the palace again, and there were no further instructions. She even felt that Luo Qing had given up on her.
She originally hoped that her special background would bring about miracles, but now she has no idea and can only take it one step at a time.
"Do you want to invite Miss Luo into the palace to take Liangdi's pulse?" Baozhu asked in a low voice.
"It's not necessary. As long as the treasure vase is here, she can take my pulse. Miss Luo's medical skills are good, but she is not a fairy. In my situation, I still have to look at God's eyes." Qin Zhao rejected Baozhu's proposal.
She clearly remembered that Luo Qing said that the cure was not good, but Luo Qing still kept the prescription. This was the meaning of treating a dead horse as a living horse.
Luo Qing couldn't predict what would happen next, let alone control it.
The second day of May is the Queen Mother's birthday - Longevity Festival.
Last year the Queen Mother was outside the palace and the Wanshou Festival was not held, but this year it was just the opposite. In order to make up for last year's regret, this year's Wanshou Festival was held in full force.
Cihe Palace was very lively on this day. Whether it was the concubines of the harem or the princes and princesses, they all came to Cihe Palace to wish the Queen Mother her birthday.
The emperor also came with Concubine Wu. Concubine Shu looked at the emperor and Concubine Wu with their expressions blank.
In the lively moment, the Queen Mother appeared with the support of Grandma Li.
Everyone's eyes lit up when they saw the Queen Mother's outfit clearly.
The emperor also fixed his gaze, feeling as if time had traveled back to twenty years ago when the Queen Mother was still relatively young.
The Queen Mother's dress this time is not flashy, but she looks particularly young and elegant. Such a style of clothing has never been seen before, but it is not out of place at all on the Queen Mother.
The burgundy dress accentuates the rosy complexion of the queen mother. It can be seen that the Queen Mother was once a peerless beauty when she was young. It is a pity that the beauty is late, and many people have forgotten that the old woman in front of them was also peerless in her youth.
After all, the emperor was a man who had seen the world. He was the first to come to his senses and stepped forward to help the queen mother: "The queen mother is very beautiful."
"Girl Zhao prepared it for the Ai family. Girl Zhao said that the Ai family can also keep up with the trend of the times." The Queen Mother said, looking at Qin Zhao who was sitting next to Xiao Ce.
Qin Zhao is yawning.
For some reason, she wanted to fall asleep last night but couldn't.
To be precise, her eyelids kept twitching, and she always felt that something bad was going to happen. She wondered if it had something to do with the Queen Mother, but she wanted to fall asleep and go back to her previous life, but she couldn't fall asleep.
She didn't take a nap until morning, so now she was very sleepy.
"Today is my queen's birthday. Of course she is the most beautiful lady in the room. Serving her is what I should do." Qin Zhao stood up and responded.
"You don't look well, but you didn't have a good rest last night?" The Queen Mother could tell at a glance that Qin Zhao was in low spirits.
"Maybe it's because I was too happy on my Majesty's birthday, so I couldn't sleep for the first time last night. It's because I've never seen the world, so I made my Majesty laugh." Qin Zhao said to himself.
"Girl Zhao's words are interesting." The Queen Mother was happy when she saw Qin Zhao, and was even more happy when she heard her speak.
The emperor didn't like Qin Zhao before, but after the garden party, he also looked at Qin Zhao with admiration. Now that the Queen Mother was happy to see Qin Zhao doing things, he was very happy and immediately gave Qin Zhao a reward.
Qin Zhao stepped forward to receive the reward, and then sat back next to Xiao Ce.
Seeing that she couldn't help but yawn again, Xiao Ce frowned slightly: "I will take you back early later."
Qin Zhao hurriedly shook his head: "No, today is the Queen Mother's birthday, I cannot leave early."
She was sitting upright now, looking straight ahead.
Xiao Ce didn't say anything when he saw her saying this.
The banquet was also very lively, all the royal family and relatives came, and many married women came to congratulate me on my birthday.
Originally, as Qin Zhao, he could not dine with the Queen Mother.
However, the Queen Mother liked Qin Zhao too much, so the birthday boy spoke up, and Qin Zhao and Xiao Ce sat in another seat next to the Queen Mother. In the past, that was where Concubine Shu sat, but now Qin Zhao took it.
Qin Zhao looked at Concubine Shu immediately, fearing that Concubine Shu would be unhappy.
Concubine Shu's expression was unrecognizable, but Concubine Shu didn't look at her from beginning to end, sitting far away from the Queen Mother as if nothing happened.
Qin Zhao knew something was wrong. Although this was not what she wanted, it was true that Concubine Shu hated her more and more.
At this moment, Xiao Ce put food into her bowl and asked her what she liked to eat.
