When Queen Mother Guo heard this, she immediately became angry: "What does the emperor mean by this?"
Is he saying in disguise that she abandoned him back then?
"The Queen Mother should know what I mean." Xiao Ce turned to look at the Queen Mother Guo: "The Queen Mother abandoned me more than once. Although I was young at the time, there are some things I will never forget."
Queen Mother Guo's face instantly turned as pale as snow. She thought that Xiao Ce was young and could not remember many things. She also thought that Xiao Ce was not close to her just because of his temperament.
It turns out that he doesn't want to get close to her because he remembers everything.
For example, that time when she hugged Xiao Ce and threatened the late emperor with her life, the late emperor stood by her for the first time. It was that time that she tasted the sweetness, and she did so countless times later.
Later, she slapped Xiao Ce twice, but lied to the late emperor that it was another concubine who did it. That concubine was later given a foot of white ribs...
I thought that Xiao Ce was only three years old at that time and would not remember these things, but I didn't expect it to be the opposite.
Queen Mother Guo felt cold all over, from her palms to her back.
So she had been dormant in the previous dynasty for twenty years and thought she was well hidden, but in fact her true face had been seen through by Xiao Ce, right?
"Emperor, you are so terrible!" At this moment, Queen Mother Guo only felt humiliated.
Xiao Ce's thin lips curled up in a sarcastic arc: "Why not? I have an equally terrible mother. This is hereditary."
He looked at Zhang Jixiang: "Jixiang, please send the Queen Mother back to Cihe Palace. If the Queen Mother suffers from a headache again, let those quack doctors from the Tai Hospital give me good treatment."
Zhang Jixiang felt uncomfortable and whispered: "I obey the order!"
"The emperor doesn't need to be pretentious." Empress Dowager Guo snorted coldly and walked away.
Zhang Jixiang did not dare to neglect and hurriedly followed.
When Xiao Ce saw Empress Dowager Guo walking away, he stood there for a moment and then returned to the bedroom.
When he came in, Qin Zhao seemed to be in a daze, as if she had something on her mind. When he came, she was still sitting on the bed motionless.
"Since you feel unwell, just lie down for a while." Xiao Ce said softly.
It took Qin Zhao a while to return to normal.
She heard the conversation between Queen Mother Guo and Xiao Ce just now.
She was thinking that even someone as noble as Xiao Ce had an unhappy childhood.
Although she didn't know why Queen Mother Guo abandoned Xiao Ce time and time again, it must have cast a shadow on Xiao Ce's childhood, right?
"It would be great if I could meet the emperor earlier." Qin Zhao's voice was a little hoarse.
Maybe she can protect him from the wind and rain.
Xiao Ce burst into laughter: "You're talking nonsense again. If you really want to meet me sooner, wouldn't you be a slave in the palace?"
He couldn't imagine what it would be like to be a slave with her temperament.
Qin Zhao was still moved by herself, but Xiao Ce brought her back to reality with one word.
"Forget it, I don't want to be a slave." Xiao Ce thought about it and became more artistic: "Everything is the best arrangement of fate. No sooner or later. The time when I met the emperor is just right."
Xiao Ce laughed when he heard this: "Isn't that right? Aren't you feeling unwell? Lie down and take a nap."
The scene when he first met Qin Zhao was so memorable to him that if he met Qin Zhao under other circumstances, he might not be able to remember her.
"As soon as I saw that the emperor was no longer feeling any discomfort." Qin Zhao said and winked at Xiao Ce, "To be honest with the emperor, I just pretended to be sick because I didn't know how to face the Queen Mother."
When facing Xiao Ce, she didn't want to lie, otherwise she would feel despicable.
Xiao Ce laughed dumbly: "It's okay if it's okay. If pretending to be sick works, then pretend to be sick next time."
He knew what kind of temper the Queen Mother was like. When facing the Queen Mother, the method of pretending to be sick was old-fashioned, but it was useful.
"Your Majesty protected me like this, I was very moved." Qin Zhao smiled and fell into Xiao Ce's arms.
The neglected little Atom looked at the scene of his parents loving each other and waved his limbs vigorously, as if he was also in agreement.
Qin Zhao looked at the child and found that the child was rarely active. She smiled and said: "Little Atom is getting cuter and cuter. I really hope that the child will grow up quickly so that he can help the emperor with government affairs."
"This child is only one month old. You are thinking too much." Xiao Ce also looked at the child, but the little guy didn't look at him directly: "Has he been crying at night recently?"
"No, little Atom is very good every day. Except for humming a few words when he is hungry, he is quiet at other times. Our child seems to be unusual." Qin Zhao guided subconsciously.
If one day Xiao Ce discovers that Xiao Atom is smarter than ordinary children, she hopes that Xiao Ce will not regard the child as a monster.
Xiao Ce's eyes flashed slightly, and he suddenly remembered something. Qin Zhao's ancestor was mysterious, and Qin Zhao's blood flowed through Xiao Atom's body, so this child was earlier and wiser than other children, which was reasonable.
"This only means that our child is smart, like you." Xiao Ce stepped forward and picked up Little Atom.
In just over a month, the child has already turned into a beautiful child. I don’t know how beautiful he will be when he grows up.
"The emperor is a dragon among men. If a child is smart, he must be more like the emperor." Qin Zhao put a high hat on Xiao Ce's head.
Xiao Ce did not discuss this issue with Qin Zhao.
That night, he deliberately stayed overnight in Jinyang Palace and paid special attention to observation. Facts proved that Qin Zhao was not exaggerating. The child just urinate before going to bed. As soon as Qin Zhao fell asleep, the child followed suit and did not sleep all night.
Crying.
Before Qin Zhao gave birth, he specifically checked some medical books. It said that the most painful thing is after the child is born. Mothers usually cannot sleep well at night, especially Qin Zhao who is not willing to hand over the little atom to anyone else.
Wet nurse to raise.
As a result, the child was so trouble-free and never cried at night, allowing Qin Zhao to sleep until dawn.
Early the next morning, Xiao Ce got up.
Qin Zhao also woke up in an instant. She stepped forward to change Xiao Ce's clothes. Xiao Ce looked at the child who also opened his eyes and smiled: "Little Atom didn't make any noise all night. He is a considerate, sensible and filial child."
"Yes, I must have accumulated it in my previous life..." Qin Zhao stopped abruptly.
Seeing that she stopped talking, Xiao Ce was a little puzzled: "Why didn't you say anything?"
Qin Zhao lowered his head, suppressed the confusion in his eyes, and changed the subject: "Your Majesty is more handsome today than yesterday."
She didn't accumulate blessings in her previous life, because she didn't even save her beloved Xiao Ce. How could she accumulate blessings in her previous life?
Probably God was so kind to her that he gave her the opportunity to make up for the regrets in her previous life.
Xiao Ce lifted Qin Zhao's chin and looked into her bright eyes. He had wanted to ask her what happened on the day she fell asleep before giving birth.
"Zhaozhao, you fell asleep the day before giving birth. You talked a lot in your sleep. You even cried loudly. What on earth were you doing in your dream?" Xiao Ce felt that it was time to ask him about the confusion in his heart.
