It wasn't until Empress Dowager Guo fell into a deep sleep that Cihe Palace became quiet.
Because he was worried about Empress Dowager Guo, Xiao Ce ordered all the imperial doctors to stay in case the Empress Dowager Guo woke up and suffered from headaches again...
Qin Zhao knew that Cihe Palace was in a commotion, and thought that this was also the result of Empress Dowager Guo's evil intentions. She was clearly looking for the blame, and she had no sympathy for Empress Dowager Guo at all.
The next day, when Qin Zhao got up, he heard Baozhu talking about how everyone in Cihe Palace had been busy all night last night, because Empress Dowager Guo woke up in the middle of the night complaining of a headache. In addition to researching prescriptions, the doctors also had to help Empress Dowager Guo relieve her pain as quickly as possible.
"The emperor also didn't get enough rest because of the Queen Mother's head illness, so he went to the morning court before dawn." What Baozhu dared not say was that the emperor had fulfilled his filial duty to Queen Mother Guo, but Queen Mother Guo might not accept this kindness.
While Qin Zhao was washing, she listened to Baozhu talk about Cihe Palace. Soon she gave the order: "Go back to Jinyang Palace."
"Don't you plan to stay for two days and then go back?" Bao Zhu was a little surprised.
"Just tell the Empress Dowager, I will go to Yangxin Palace to see the Emperor later." Qin Zhao had already decided.
A click of the orb made it clear, and he understood that the empress was worried about the emperor's dragon body.
The Empress Dowager knew that Qin Zhao was going back to Jinyang Palace, so she did not stop him. She just asked Qin Zhao to finish his breakfast before returning.
Qin Zhao naturally had no objection.
During this period, the Empress Dowager held Little Atom in her arms and teased her for a while. After Qin Zhao had breakfast, she reluctantly sent Qin Zhao mother and son away from Shoukang Palace.
Qin Zhao saw the expression of reluctance on the Queen Mother's face and said with a smile: "My Majesty, I have time to go to Jinyang Palace more often. When I have time, I will often bring my children here to pay my respects to my Majesty."
"You are a filial child, and the Ai family knows that." The Empress Dowager was quite pleased.
Later, Qin Zhao took Xiao Atom back to Jinyang Palace.
Empress Dowager Guo was furious when she received the news. When she was angry, her headaches returned, which made all the imperial doctors suffer, and they were once again busy with Empress Dowager Guo.
There was a lot of excitement in the Cihe palace, but Qin Zhao brought the tonic soup to the Yangxin Palace.
This was the first time she went to Yangxin Hall after giving birth.
Xiao Ce stayed up almost all night. After going to court, he was discussing political affairs with the ministers. When he suddenly heard that Qin Zhao was coming, he was a little surprised.
Originally there were many important matters to discuss, but as soon as Qin Zhao came, he was not interested in political affairs.
When Zhao Yu came out of Xinuang Pavilion, he happened to see Qin Zhao standing not far away with his child in his arms.
His eyes were dark, and when Qin Zhao looked over, he quickly lowered his head and stepped forward to salute Qin Zhao.
"Master Zhao, excuse me." Qin Zhao excused Zhao Yu from the ceremony.
Now that she sees Zhao Yu, she feels very strange. Zhao Yu doesn't look like a male protagonist at all to her. At least in her world, he can't even be called a supporting role.
She just wanted to know if Xiao Ce's death in the previous life was related to Zhao Yu.
Zhao Yu did not dare to talk to Qin Zhao anymore. After all, this was the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart, and people talked a lot. He and Qin Zhao used to be husband and wife, but now Qin Zhao is the emperor's noble concubine, and their every word and deed is closely watched.
Zhao Yu did not dare to stay longer and left in a hurry. He did not see Qin Zhao's face clearly from the beginning to the end.
The moment he walked out of the Yangxin Hall, he let out a long breath.
A colleague happened to come out and saw him and joked: "Why are you leaving so fast, Mr. Zhao?"
If you don’t have any ghosts in your heart, there is no need to rush out of the Palace of Nourishing Heart.
"I have something to do at home, please leave first." Zhao Yu said and walked away quickly.
At this time, An Shangshu also left the Yangxin Hall. This colleague teased Zhao Yu in a low voice to An Shangshu, saying that Zhao Yu seemed to have seen a ghost when he saw Qin Zhao.
An Shangshu's eyes flashed slightly but he didn't answer.
Just at this time, Wen Chong also came out. After hearing what this man said, he said coldly: "This is the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart, not a place to criticize the concubines in the harem. Please think twice before speaking."
The colleague's expression was slightly sarcastic, "That's what Mr. Wen said."
An Shangshu also reconciled the situation, and then the three of them left separately.
Wen Chong was the last one to leave. He looked at An Shangshu's back and thought of the feud between An Meiren and Qin Guifei. He was afraid that An Shangshu would be restless and use the past events between Qin Guifei and Zhao Yu to make an issue, which would harm not only Qin.
The reputation of the imperial concubine also damages the reputation of the emperor.
Fortunately, Concubine Qin gave birth to the little prince, and her contribution was indispensable. No one in the harem could challenge Concubine Qin's status.
He still felt that someone should remind Concubine Qin to be careful of An Jia's mischief behind her back.
Of course, the meeting between Qin Zhao and Zhao Yu reached Xiao Ce's ears. He originally had a grudge in his heart, but when he saw the soup cup in Qin Zhao's hand, he had no idea at all.
"My concubine heard that the emperor didn't sleep all night yesterday, so she stewed a tonic soup and brought it over. The emperor will drink the soup first, take a nap later, and then deal with political affairs." Qin Zhao kept the story short.
Anyway, she had already made arrangements for Xiao Ce, otherwise she would not have risked meeting Zhao Yu and come to the Nourishing Heart Palace.
Xiao Ce was immersed in drinking soup, and when he heard her words, the corners of his lips rose: "I'm not lacking."
"Your Majesty, don't think that you can indulge yourself when you are young. If you don't pay attention to it now, when you get older in the future, your Majesty will know that you have to take good care of your health when you are young. Your Majesty, please listen to my concubine and take a nap later to deal with political affairs. You will be in good spirits."
If you do it, your work efficiency will double." Qin Zhao advised earnestly.
When Xiao Ce saw her nagging, he gave in and said, "That's all, I'll listen to you."
As he spoke, he also took the little Atom and drank soup while holding the child, which was quite comfortable.
After Xiao Ce finished drinking the soup, Qin Zhao took the child over and let Xiao Ce go to bed.
Under Qin Zhao's personal supervision, Xiao Ce chose to lie down.
He didn't know whether it was due to lack of sleep or the comfort of having Qin Zhao by his side. He fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes.
In addition, Qin Zhao didn't let anyone else disturb his rest, so he slept for an hour.
By now lunch was ready and he felt refreshed.
During the meal, Qin Zhao helped Xiao Ce prepare dishes from time to time and told him to eat more.
Xiao Ce was very full after this meal, just because Qin Zhao put food in his bowl from time to time. If he didn't eat, her kindness would be wasted.
"If the empress can personally supervise the emperor's meals every day, the emperor will not become thinner and thinner." Zhang Jixiang watched from the side and could only lament that Qin Zhao's ability was something others did not have.
Xiao Ce glanced over at him, and Zhang Jixiang obediently stepped aside.
Anyway, what he said is true. It depends on whether the imperial concubine can come to the Yangxin Hall often.
Qin Zhao also felt that Zhang Jixiang's words were reasonable, but it was true that it was not appropriate to visit the Yangxin Hall frequently.
"You are the emperor's personal attendant. The emperor must eat three meals on time. You need to remember this." Qin Zhao looked at Zhang Jixiang and said.
Zhang Jixiang complained secretly.
If the emperor would listen to him, he wouldn't put his hopes on the imperial concubine?
To be precise, there was only one concubine in the entire harem who could easily convince the emperor.
The emperor always puts government affairs first and never pays attention to eating, so he does not eat on time.
