After several days, Qin Zhao discovered that Xiao Ce did not come to Jinyang Palace again. If it was normal, she would not be worried, but this time it was different.
Xiao Ce received two important messages one after another. One was that the Queen Mother Guo was deeply poisoned and would never fully recover in this life. The other important message was that the Queen Mother Guo was the one who killed the late emperor.
If these two major events happen together, even a mentally tough person like Xiao Ce may not be able to handle them.
Because she was worried about Xiao Ce, she couldn't sit still, so she simply took Xiao Atom with her to the Yangxin Hall to find Xiao Ce.
Qin Zhao went to the Yangxin Hall at around noon that day. His original intention was to have a meal with Xiao Ce and talk to Xiao Ce by the way.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered the Yangxin Palace, she found out that Xiao Ce had returned from Cihe Palace that day and fell ill that night.
"The emperor is sick, why don't you tell me?" Qin Zhao said harshly.
Zhang Jixiang said: "I want to say something, but the emperor doesn't want the imperial concubine to worry, so I am not allowed to say it, otherwise I will take my head."
The emperor also knew that as long as the imperial concubine knew that the emperor was ill, she would definitely come to Yangxin Hall to accompany the emperor.
Because of this, the emperor did not allow him to say it, presumably because he was afraid that the imperial concubine would be sick of the emperor.
Xiao Ce was so sleepy that he seemed to hear Qin Zhao's voice. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Qin Zhao sitting in front of the bed with a bowl of medicine in his hand.
"Zhaozhao?" Xiao Ce was a little confused due to illness, and he wasn't sure if he was dreaming.
"The emperor is confused. He is so ill that he did not forget to go to the morning court. The result of trying to be brave is that the illness becomes more serious. This is the medicine Luo Qing specially ordered. The emperor drinks it first and will feel better." Qin Zhao asked Zhang Jixiang.
He helped Xiao Ce sit up and then started to give medicine.
"You are taking care of your child. If you get over my illness, what can you do?" Xiao Ce's voice was hoarse.
Qin Zhao hurriedly replied: "I gave the child to Baozhu. If I get over the illness, I won't pass it on to the child. Don't worry, Your Majesty."
When Xiao Ce heard what she said, he became even more angry. He coughed and yelled: "How can you help you when you are sick?"
Is he someone who only values the child and not her?
"Okay, okay, your Majesty said, Your Majesty, don't be impatient. I am being reckless. But since I am close to the Emperor, it will have no effect if the Emperor tries to teach me a lesson." Qin Zhao hurriedly patted Xiao Ce on the back: "Look.
The emperor is ill, and I am also feeling uncomfortable. The emperor must get well as soon as possible."
Xiao Ce thought she was going to cry, so he took the medicine bowl and drank it in one breath: "Whatever you say is what it is. I drink the medicine and I will feel better tomorrow."
Qin Zhao was very satisfied with Xiao Ce's success.
Xiao Ce's physical fitness is not bad to begin with, and coupled with Luo Qing's superb medical skills, he will surely get better soon.
Because he couldn't defeat Qin Zhao, Qin Zhao stayed with him from afternoon to evening. Seeing that Xiao Ce's energy improved a lot, he returned to Jinyang Palace.
Qin Zhao did not dare to approach Xiao Atom that night, fearing that he would pass Xiao Ce's illness and pass it on to his child.
The next day Qin Zhao was fine and nothing happened, so he dared to see the child.
Qiu Shui also came here to send a message, saying that Xiao Ce's illness was completely cured, but he still had a little cough. Luo Qing said that he could make a complete recovery after taking another dose of medicine.
When Qin Zhao heard the news, he felt relieved.
According to her, Xiao Ce's health is usually pretty good. Except for his stomach which is not very good due to not eating on time, everything else is not bad.
This sudden illness was caused by a heart attack.
Even as powerful as Xiao Ce, he will still be hurt by the actions of those closest to him.
In his previous life, Xiao Ce probably knew that the late emperor died at the hands of the Queen Mother Guo, and he had a cold temperament. After being stimulated by this news, Xiao Ce later became more and more indifferent.
She didn't know the reasons, she just blamed Xiao Ce for not accompanying her...
After Qiu Shui reported the situation, she saw Qin Zhao in a daze. She thought Qin Zhao was still worried, and said: "Please don't worry, the emperor is really well. Even if it is for His Highness and the empress, the emperor will be fine."
.”
"As long as the emperor is healthy, I can rest assured." Qin Zhao looked at Baozhu.
Bao Zhu understood and specially gave Qiu Shui a money bag.
Qiu Shui also knew that Qin Zhao was always generous, but he did not refuse, so he accepted the reward: "Thank you for your kindness. If you have nothing else to do, I will go back to the Yangxin Palace."
"Go." Qin Zhao smiled.
"The autumn water is so beautiful." Baohong couldn't help but sigh as she watched the autumn water go away.
Among the palace maids she has ever seen, Qiu Shui is the most beautiful.
Qin Zhao thought to himself, isn't that right? Qiu Shui would have become Xiao Ce's concubine in her previous life, but in this life, she messed with her and ended up as a palace maid.
But she thought this was a good thing. Qiu Shui, the great palace maid, was now in a prosperous position, so she didn't have to be jealous of her, let alone scheming with other concubines in the harem, so she could live a leisurely life.
"No matter how beautiful you are, you can't be more beautiful than the imperial concubine." Baozhu said.
Baohong subconsciously looked at Qin Zhao, and when she saw Qin Zhao smiling, she knew that her master did not blame her for speaking out.
"That's right. Not only can't you find a second beauty like your empress in the harem, but you can't even find a second one in the entire Daqi." Baohong flattered her naturally.
Qin Zhao smiled: "I like to hear this."
But let’s just listen to it. She has a low starting point and is very satisfied with how her appearance has turned out.
She doesn't need to rely on her beauty to be favored, nor does she need to be the most beautiful woman in Daqi.
While they were talking to each other, Luo Qing came and said that he had been ordered by Xiao Ce to take Qin Zhao's pulse because he was afraid that Qin Zhao was over his illness.
"As long as Baoping is here, she has checked my pulse a long time ago. I am fine and there is nothing wrong with me." Even though Qin Zhao said this, he still extended his hand obediently.
Luo Qing saw Qin Zhao's rosy complexion and knew that Qin Zhao was not sick or in pain without checking his pulse.
"You've been very busy these days. Please rest here for a while before going back to your busy work." Qin Zhao waited for Luo Qing to check his pulse, then pulled Luo Qing to sit down.
Luo Qing is indeed tired.
Because she was seeing a doctor for Queen Mother Guo, whose condition was serious, she had not had a good rest in the past few days.
Xiao Ce, the emperor, fell ill again. Although it was just a minor illness, she couldn't be careless. She did everything herself.
Qin Zhao asked Baozhu to send Luo Qing to have a good sleep, while she took her children to enjoy the flowers in the small garden.
While he was having fun, Wu Baolin came, and Sun Yunv and Li Yunv also came with him.
Ever since she asked Li Yunv to be her spy in Yonghua Palace, Li Yunv rarely set foot in Jinyang Palace. Today I came here with Wu Baolin. I wonder if I have anything to say to her.
After several people paid their respects to Qin Zhao, Qin Zhao led several people into the room.
"It's been so cold these days." Wu Baolin calmed down as soon as he entered the room.
Sun Yunu agreed: "It's too cold. Fortunately, we burned the earth dragon in the house to make it warm."
Li Yunv's focus was on Xiao Atom. Her hands were itching unbearably: "Sister Qin, can I give your Highness a hug?"
