After Naxiang Baozhu learned about Wu Xirou's promotion, he did not dare to mention the matter to Qin Zhao for fear of affecting Qin Zhao's pregnancy.
Qin Zhao also pretended not to know. Anyway, Wu Xirou's lack of promotion had nothing to do with her, so she wouldn't care. But Si Bao didn't understand and thought she would care about these things.
As long as there is peace in Jinyang Palace and no one disturbs her peace, she will be satisfied.
Compared to the tranquility in Jinyang Palace, Zhongcui Palace has become a lot more lively.
Wu Xirou didn't expect that so many sisters would come to Jinyang Palace in one day. Everyone came to congratulate her on her promotion to the virtuous concubine. Everyone was smiling, but she was thinking of Qin Zhao who was in Jinyang Palace.
Everyone in Yangxin Palace is facing Qin Zhao, and even the head of the food department is also facing Qin Zhao, delivering ingredients to Jinyang Palace on time.
I wonder if Qin Zhao has received news about her promotion.
Thinking of Qin Zhao, she couldn't help but feel a little distracted.
At this time Luo Baolin's voice sounded: "Sister Xian Fei is the fastest promoted among all our sisters. I used to think that Sister Qin was the most favored."
Her words attracted everyone's attention as she wished.
Just now, everyone had a tacit agreement not to mention Qin Zhao, but Luo Baolin mentioned it at this time. I don't know if he wanted to cause trouble or to avenge Qin Zhao.
After all, Qin Zhaodu did not come out of Jinyang Palace during the Chinese New Year, and the emperor did not go to Jinyang Palace on such a big day as yesterday.
This shows that Qin Zhao has truly fallen out of favor, and it is not a small fight like before.
"Sister Qin is still the most valued by the emperor. No one can replace Sister Qin, and I am no exception." Wu Xirou glanced at Luo Baolin and opened her lips calmly: "Besides, there is no comparison between me and Sister Qin.
We are good friends and good sisters."
Everyone here felt a little harsh when they heard that Wu Xirou still called Qin Zhao sister.
Wu Xirou has become a virtuous concubine, and Qin Zhao is still shutting up in Jinyang Palace to think about her past. What else can Wu Xirou do to pretend at this time?
Being able to become a virtuous concubine should be the most honorable thing that Wu Xirou has ever done in her life, right?
Everyone was criticizing Wu Xirou for being hypocritical, but Luo Baolin smiled and said, "What Sister Xian Fei said is that both sisters are good sisters that I respect."
As soon as Luo Baolin said this, others agreed one after another, and the scene became lively.
After being welcomed and sent off in this way, Wu Xirou didn't take a breath until the evening.
She only felt a soreness in her back, and her cheeks were a little stiff from laughing all day.
At this time, Wu Xirou couldn't help but think of Qin Zhao again.
If it were Qin Zhao facing a scene like today, he would be able to face it calmly, right?
On the first day of the new year, should she go to Jinyang Palace to have a look? She had planned to do so yesterday, but because she was suddenly named a virtuous concubine, if she ran there at this time, she would probably make Qin Zhao think that she was
Showing off.
"Your Majesty, please don't go. After all, your Majesty has been promoted to a virtuous concubine. Even if she wants to pay New Year's greetings, it's Miss Qin who should come to visit." Liuli immediately retorted after knowing Wu Xirou's dilemma.
This kind of price reduction behavior should never be done, otherwise it will only make everyone in the harem laugh.
When Concubine Xian called Miss Qin sister before, many harem masters looked at Concubine Xian in disbelief.
"As far as I am concerned, regardless of whether Sister Qin has a status or whether I am promoted or not, she is still my sister." Wu Xirou ended the topic.
Just because Liuli refused to listen, in Liuli's heart, she always felt that she, the virtuous concubine, was more powerful than Qin Zhao. In fact, this was just a false name. Although she was in authority, she could clearly see her own identity and status.
In addition to Wu Xirou who was wondering whether to go to Qin Zhao to pay New Year's greetings, there was another person in the harem who was also confused about whether to go to Jinyang Palace to see Qin Zhao. That person was the Empress Dowager.
Because Qin Zhao was pregnant and today was the first day of the New Year, Qin Zhao spent the first day of the New Year alone in Jinyang Palace, which was somewhat deserted.
But she just went to Jinyang Palace yesterday. If she went again today, it would probably arouse people's suspicion.
Now she just wishes that no one knew about Qin Zhao's pregnancy, so Qin Zhao would be safer in Jinyang Palace.
If she runs too frequently, it will make people suspicious.
Aunt Li obviously knew the Empress Dowager's dilemma, so she suppressed a smile and said, "My Majesty, you want to hide this from even the Emperor?"
"Why didn't you tell A Ce about this happy event, girl Zhao? It's because A Ce is the cause of trouble. There are so many people in the harem staring at A Ce. If A Ce knew that girl Zhao was happy, why wouldn't he tell the whole world? The Ai family thought it was better.
What Zhao Yatou does is good, she is doing big things quietly. I used to think that Zhao Yatou had a hot temper and it was because the Ai family underestimated her. She is calmer than anyone else." When the Empress Dowager mentioned Qin Zhao, her tone
I am full of pride.
Aunt Li felt the same way: "When I first met Miss Qin, I felt that Miss Qin was extraordinary. Facts have proved that I have a good taste."
At that time, the Empress Dowager did not like Miss Qin. After dealing with Miss Qin several times, the empress changed her view of Miss Qin.
The Queen Mother also recalled the first time she met Qin Zhao. At that time, she felt sorry for Qin Zhao.
"Girl Zhao is a blessing. She will be able to give birth to her child safely." The Empress Dowager said softly.
This is also her wish.
"Miss Qin will definitely give birth to a little prince." Nanny Li agreed.
The Empress Dowager also hopes so, but it also depends on God's will.
In the end, the Empress Dowager endured it.
She told Aunt Li to pay attention to the activities in Jinyang Palace at all times. If anyone dared to make trouble in Jinyang Palace, they could deal with that person first and then report to her.
Aunt Li was secretly speechless after hearing this. Although the Empress Dowager also had her own tricks, she rarely acted so resolutely.
This also shows that not only Miss Qin values this pregnancy, but the Empress Dowager is also eager to hold her great-grandson.
After that, Empress Dowager Guo specially asked Aunt Li to speak to Zhang Shan and asked Zhang Shan to deliver the best food to Jinyang Palace.
The chef was a little surprised when he received the order.
She regularly delivered ingredients to Jinyang Palace every other day. No one stopped her from doing this. She only thought it was the tacit approval of Yangxin Palace. As time went by, she would also wonder if she had misjudged the situation.
Especially early this morning, the virtuous concubine was suddenly granted a title by the Jin Dynasty. This incident caused thousands of waves in the harem.
Just at night, someone from Shoukang Palace came and asked her to deliver the best ingredients to Jinyang Palace. This was something that had never happened before.
Since Empress Dowager Guo took charge of the affairs of the Sixth Palace, she has been much more low-key and will only appear during major festivals.
This time Shoukang Palace specially sent someone to convey the message, which shows that Jinyang Palace has reasons for Shoukang Palace to value it.
Now she didn't dare to neglect, and deliberately prepared the menu in advance, planning to deliver the freshest ingredients to Jinyang Palace early tomorrow morning.
