"You're welcome." Qin Zhao finished her reply and found that Xiao Ce was looking at her coldly, with a slightly sarcastic look on her face.
It seems that it is not good for her to take the initiative to talk to Zhao Yu.
It is not a secret that she has married someone. Xiao Ce never cared about it at first, but now that she is an emperor, it will be different with a different status, right?
Forget it, just think it's her fault this time.
"Your Majesty, please be busy. I just came over to take a look and see if your Majesty is well. I feel relieved to see that Your Majesty is well." Qin Zhao finished speaking and left in a hurry.
She came suddenly and left suddenly.
But the atmosphere in Xinuang Pavilion, which was originally calm and peaceful, became uncomfortable after Qin Zhao appeared.
As long as they are in the officialdom, who doesn't know that the emperor's favorite Qin was once Zhao Yu's ex-wife?
They happened to meet each other just now, and the two of them started chatting. It seemed like it was all in the past, but the emperor still seemed to care about it.
After Qin Zhao left the Yangxin Hall, he lightly slapped himself twice on the mouth: "It's all Wu Xirou's fault."
If she had not met Wu Xirou on the way, she would not have gone to the Yangxin Hall if she wanted to deliberately provoke Wu Xirou. If she had not come to the Yangxin Hall, she would not have met Zhao Yu.
It's just bad luck after all.
She was sure that Xiao Ce was dissatisfied with her meeting Zhao Yu just now, and also let several other ministers see this scene, reminding everyone that she was Zhao Yu's ex-wife.
It can only be said that men in this world all have the same bad nature and do not allow their belongings to once belong to others. True dragon emperors like Xiao Ce are not immune to this.
"Don't be upset, girl. I suddenly saw Mr. Zhao today against my wishes. The emperor is a sensible person and will not blame the girl." Baozhu couldn't help laughing when he saw Qin Zhao beating his chest and feet.
"You don't understand this. The emperor is very concerned about the fact that I have married someone, and Zhao Yu often appears in front of the emperor. Every time he sees Zhao Yu, the emperor will think of the fact that I have married someone. In this world,
Men are all the same, they are petty, and the emperor is no exception." Qin Zhao remembered the vicious look Xiao Ce had given her before, and knew that Xiao Ce was probably going to get angry with her again.
Bao Zhu felt that this was reasonable: "The emperor cares so much about the girl, so he cares about whether the girl has married someone else."
"Let's not talk about this matter anymore. I'd better come to Yangxin Palace less often in the future, so as not to accidentally bump into Mr. Zhao again and make the emperor unhappy." Qin Zhao quickened his pace and headed towards Jinyang Palace.
It was really unlucky that after finally going out for a walk, she met Wu Xirou, a hypocritical woman, and then met her ex-husband. God deliberately did not let her have an easy time.
When it was almost time for dinner, Cihe Palace sent Nianyun to convey the message. Empress Dowager Guo asked her to go to Cihe Palace to accompany her for dinner.
This is really...
Qin Zhao looked at Nianyun who was delivering the message, and actually wanted to ask her if she could not go.
If you go to Cihe Palace to have a meal, you are going to have trouble with your stomach, so why bother?
"Miss, can you go with me?" Nianyun repeated when Qin Zhao didn't answer.
Qin Zhao nodded slightly: "It is an honor for me to have dinner with the Queen Mother."
In this way, no matter how unwilling she was, she had to go to Cihe Palace to have a meal.
On the way to Cihe Palace, Qin Zhao suddenly had a clear idea.
Empress Dowager Guo has been very active recently, and there are rumors about Empress Dowager Guo everywhere in the harem. Today Empress Dowager Guo issued an edict, and tomorrow she will talk to another person.
Wu Xirou just went to Cihe Palace today, and Empress Dowager Guo came to see her again in the evening. Could it be because Empress Dowager Guo knew that she had met Wu Xirou today?
Wu Xirou suspected that she had caused a chance encounter, so she went to Cihe Palace to enter the palace with Empress Dowager Guo at night. How could Wu Xirou, a suspicious and seriously ill woman, think that she was deliberately trying to mistreat her?
Therefore, Empress Dowager Guo's poisonous plan was not only to kill someone with a borrowed knife, but also to kill her with flattery.
"Nianyun, how many years have you served the Queen Mother?" Qin Zhao started chatting as he approached Cihe Palace.
Nianyun replied without hesitation: "Fifteen years."
When she served the Queen Mother, the emperor was already five years old, and she remembered this clearly.
"That means the Queen Mother has some secrets that even you don't know about, right?" Qin Zhao said slowly.
Nianyun didn't expect Qin Zhao to speak so frankly. It took her a while to say: "The Queen Mother behaves well and sits upright. There is never any secret."
"Then do you think the current Empress Dowager is the same person as the Concubine Shu who you first served?" Qin Zhao said calmly.
Nianyun's face darkened: "What on earth did the girl want to say?!"
"I'm just asking casually. You don't need to be so angry. Speaking of which, the Queen Mother was very good-tempered before she was honored as the Queen Mother this year. You should learn more from the Queen Mother, who is so well-educated." Qin
Zhao's voice was like the spring breeze in March. It wasn't sharp, it was just stating the facts.
Nianyun took a deep breath, "What the girl said is that this slave has been taught."
"After all, she is the eldest palace maid next to the Queen Mother, and there is no servant with this level of consciousness." Qin Zhao's words came from the sincerity.
Nianyun frowned slightly, but could only accept this "praise".
After entering Cihe Palace and seeing the ceremony, Qin Zhao took his seat.
Empress Dowager Guo looks amiable. People who don't know better think she is as kind as the Empress Dowager, but Qin Zhao has learned how powerful Empress Dowager Guo is.
During the dinner, Queen Mother Guo greeted Qin Zhao from time to time, as if she regarded Qin Zhao as one of her own.
Others might be flattered or frightened by such a big change in Empress Dowager Guo's attitude, but Qin Zhao was just the opposite.
Drama.
This Hongmen Banquet was like an ordinary meal to Qin Zhao. She was very satisfied and happy with it.
In the middle of the meal, Xiao Ce suddenly came.
Qin Zhao greeted Xiao Ce and joked: "The emperor came here because he smelled the fragrance of rice, right?"
Xiao Ce took a deep look at Qin Zhao and said calmly, "You are the one who is greedy."
"You can't blame me for that. The food here is delicious." Qin Zhaocan smiled like a flower.
As she spoke, she took a special look at Queen Mother Guo.
Queen Mother Guo probably thought that she came to Cihe Palace to have a meal and didn’t know how to taste the food. But her taste was so good, I wonder what Queen Mother Guo would think.
Xiao Cehui suddenly came to Cihe Palace. Of course, it was Xiao Linzi who delivered the news. Qin Zhao came to Cihe Palace for dinner. He was worried, so he came over specifically to have a look.
Seeing that Qin Zhao was fine now, he was relieved.
Xiao Ce came over at this time, and Nianyun immediately bought him a set of bowls and chopsticks.
After that, Qin Zhao was responsible for bringing food to Xiao Ce and was very attentive. She knew what kind of food Xiao Ce liked to eat, so of course she brought some of his favorite dishes.
Looking at Xiao Ce's relaxed expression, you can tell that he enjoyed the meal.
