"I won't go out!" Qin Zhao subconsciously refused.
Not everyone is as blind as Xiao Ce. When other people see her belly, how can they find out that she is pregnant?
Then the surprise for Xiao Ce will be gone, which is not good.
"You are not allowed to stay in the house all the time. This time, listen to me. I will take you to the imperial garden." Xiao Ce said in a commanding tone.
Qin Zhao frowned: "Isn't it okay not to go?"
"This is an imperial edict, and you are not allowed to say 'no'!" Xiao Ce acted like an emperor.
Qin Zhao:......
She looked at Baozhu, who had no idea.
After all, the emperor has said that this is an imperial edict, can the girl still resist the edict and disobey it?
After thinking about it, Bao Zhu came up with a good idea: "Girl, you are afraid of the cold. It's cold outside now, so why don't you wear an extra layer?"
After saying that, she brought a special cloak and helped Qin Zhao put it on.
Of course Qin Zhao understands what Baozhu means. When she goes out later, she can use her cloak to cover her belly. In this way, no one will find out that she has something in her belly.
All I can say is that this is a hopeless solution.
I'm afraid it was someone else who discovered she was pregnant in the end, and Xiao Ce, an idiot, didn't discover anything.
In this way, under Xiao Ce's pressure, Qin Zhao had no choice but to follow him out of Jinyang Palace and toward the Imperial Garden.
Qin Zhao hadn't shown his face for a long time and was still a little uncomfortable with the crowd.
Along the way, we met many palace servants and guards. They saluted Xiao Ce and her, but no one dared to look at them.
Because Qin Zhao wore a cloak and had a clothesline tied around her waist, even if someone stood in front of Qin Zhao and looked carefully at her belly, they would not notice that there was a baby in her belly.
Therefore, Qin Zhao was relieved a lot.
She still hoped that Xiao Ce would find out that he was a father soon...
Xiao Ce noticed that Qin Zhao looked at him from time to time, wondering why: "What is that look in your eyes?"
Qin Zhaopi smiled and said: "I used to think that the emperor was a very smart person, but now I find that it's just the opposite."
Xiao Ce raised his eyebrows slightly: "What do you mean by this?"
Qin Zhao smiled and said: "The emperor will know it in the future."
Just when she was talking to Xiao Ce, Cui Yan suddenly appeared with her palace servants and saluted Xiao Ce.
Qin Zhao has already heard about Cui Yan's feats. Cui Yan was married in his previous life, but in this life he still entered Xiao Ce's harem. It has to be said that this woman has a thicker skin than her, and she actually blackmailed him in this way.
Xiao Ce.
If she were Xiao Ce, she would probably throw Cui Yan out of the palace directly, right?
"Cousin of the Emperor." Cui Yan was shy and timid when he saw Xiao Ce.
Xiao Ce glanced at Cui Yan, not wanting to avoid Cui Yan's courtesy, and then took Qin Zhao's hand and walked forward.
Qin Zhao looked back at Cui Yan, who happened to look up and their eyes met. Cui Yan only felt that Qin Zhao was looking at her joke, and a sense of humiliation suddenly came over her.
She didn't care much at the moment and chased after him: "Shall I accompany the emperor's cousin?"
Xiao Ce frowned slightly, not liking to see Cui Yan. This would remind him of the reasons why Cui Yan entered the harem.
Zhang Jixiang knows Xiao Ce best. From the details of Xiao Ce's expression, he can tell that Xiao Ce is angry.
He stepped forward to stop Cui Yan at the right time, "Little Master Cui, please stop!"
Cui Yan was stopped by Zhang Jixiang and could only watch Xiao Ce and Qin Zhao walk away.
In this room, Zhang Jixiang stopped someone, waved his hand, and someone from the palace or chamberlain took his place.
"I want to see the emperor's cousin, please get out of my way!" Qin Zhao walked far away and heard Cui Yan's sharp voice.
Xiao Ce glanced at Qin Zhao's belly from time to time.
Just because Qin Zhao intentionally or unintentionally put his hands on his belly, this action happened more than once. Maybe even Qin Zhao himself didn't realize that he was protecting his belly from time to time.
Xiao Ce frowned slightly, always feeling like he had missed something, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
Just when Xiao Ce was in a daze, Zuo Zhaorong, Xu Cairen, and Fu Baolin came over to pay their respects to him.
Zuo Zhaorong saluted and then said to Qin Zhao: "Sister Qin is finally willing to leave Jinyang Palace?"
Her eyes were fixed on Qin Zhao's face, and she found that Qin Zhao was no different from before, but he seemed to have become gentler.
"The emperor issued an oral order, saying that he would take me out for a walk. If I don't come, I will be disobeying the order." Qin Zhao took the opportunity to complain about Xiao Ce's airs about loving the emperor.
Xiao Ce said helplessly: "I asked you to go out for a walk for your own good. If you stay in the house all day long, sooner or later something will happen."
"I'm fine, what could go wrong?" Qin Zhao disagreed.
When Zuo Zhaorong saw their bickering, he curved his lips and said with a smile: "The emperor feels sorry for my sister. That's right, why doesn't my sister want to go out and walk around?"
"I've always been lazy and lazy. I can't move as long as I can. Is there anything strange about it?" Qin Zhao glanced at Xiao Ce and said, "If the emperor hadn't forced me to do so today, I wouldn't want to go out and walk around. The older this person gets, the lazier he becomes."
Xiao Ce looked at Qin Zhao, "You have to change your lazy temperament."
Only she can make her shortcomings look like great advantages.
"You can't change your nature." Qin Zhao felt a little tired after walking for a while: "I'll go sit in the pavilion for a while, and you can continue shopping."
Bao Zhu wanted to step forward to help her, but was worried that she would be too obvious, so she resisted and did not step forward.
When Xiao Ce saw Qin Zhao abandoning him and standing there for a moment, he still followed Qin Zhao towards the pavilion.
Xiao Ce followed, and the other concubines naturally followed, and the pavilion was overcrowded for a while.
Perhaps many people came here specially after receiving the news that Xiao Ce was coming to the Royal Garden, so more and more women came to show their faces to Xiao Ce.
When Xiao Ce saw so many people running towards the pavilion, he frowned slightly and glanced at Qin Zhao subconsciously.
Qin Zhao happened to look over, half-smiling but not smiling.
Her smile made Xiao Ce feel uncomfortable.
At this time, Luo Baolin also came to greet Xiao Ce. She looked at Qin Zhao and said, "I haven't seen Sister Qin for a few days, and Sister Qin looks better."
Qin Zhao likes to hear this. What woman doesn't like to be beautiful?
"I look in the mirror every day and I feel beautiful." Qin Zhao said and looked at Xiao Ce again.
Every time Xiao Ce sees her, he always calls her fat, a man who doesn't understand taste.
Xiao Ce understood what Qin Zhao's eyes meant this time, and he agreed obediently: "Yes, Zhao Zhao is the prettiest."
His truth touched the hearts of all the women present, but yes, Xiao Ce's words were also true.
The corners of Qin Zhao's lips were slightly curved, and he was in a good mood because of Xiao Ce's praise.
Others also agreed, but how sincere they are is worthy of scrutiny.
Qin Zhao saw all the women surrounding Xiao Ce, and this scene made her feel funny for no reason.
In her opinion, Xiao Ce was like Tang Monk meat. Every woman wanted to take a bite, but she didn't dare to make the mistake. She could only look at Xiao Ce and drool.
