Concubine Wu said after a while: "The Ai family will listen to you this time."
Because she can't afford to lose, although she can't wait to win against Queen Mother Guo and Qin Zhao, under such circumstances, her hope of winning is very slim.
Aunt Zhong breathed a sigh of relief: "I will go to Wang Shang Palace to ventilate my feelings. Your Majesty, please go have lunch first, and we will discuss other matters in the long run."
Keep the green hills, even if there is no firewood?
She believed that as long as she had a perfect plan, the empress would definitely make Qin Zhao and Queen Mother Guo miserable.
The next morning, when Qin Zhao got up, Xiao Linzi came in to wait on him and gave Qin Zhao a look.
Qin Zhao immediately understood that there was news from Xiao Linzi, that is to say, Mrs. Guo was indeed in cahoots with Wang Shanggong.
Bao Lan has returned to duty today. It's hard for Xiao Linzi to talk about it, but Qin Zhao knows it.
When lunch was about to begin, Concubine Wu came again, saying that she wanted to discuss some details with Qin Zhao about holding the Lantern Festival and the Longevity Festival.
"I have already told you, just follow the regulations and procedures of previous years. There is no need to deliberately make things bigger." Qin Zhao opened his lips indifferently, not wanting to deal with Concubine Wu at all.
She also thought about it, and some unnecessary processes could be reduced on the Lantern Festival, so that everyone would not have to work so hard.
"It's different this time. The Queen Mother's phoenix body is in disobedience and she can't help. The Ai family has been in charge of the harem for many years and has a lot of experience. If the concubine doesn't understand anything and makes a joke on that day, it will not only be embarrassing for the concubine, but also the royal family and the emperor.
I've lost all face." Wu Taifei said aggressively.
She just hoped that Qin Zhao would show weakness and leave the management of the Lantern Festival in her hands.
"There will be nothing that the Dowager Concubine is worried about. Speaking of which, the Concubine Concubine is a person who has seen the world, so why are she worried about something going wrong even on a festival like the Lantern Festival?"
Concubine Wu only thought that Qin Zhao was a dead duck: "The Lantern Festival is not just a simple Lantern Festival, but also a Longevity Festival. If something goes wrong on that day? Can you bear the heavy responsibility?"
"The Concubine is old after all. It's just the Wanshou Festival. The emperor has never liked to arrest Zhang. In my opinion, the Lantern Festival is the main one and the Wanshou Festival is the supplement. Just as I am the protagonist in charge of the Sixth Palace.
, and the concubine is just a supporting role, which is the same reason." Qin Zhao glanced at Concubine Wu, as if he didn't take her seriously.
Concubine Wu was not angry but smiled: "It seems that the Ai family is meddling in other people's affairs. The Ai family meant well. Since the concubine doesn't appreciate it, if something really goes wrong by then, don't blame the Ai family for not warning her in advance!"
"I don't have anything else to do, so I'll go back to Changkang Palace and have a good rest. After all, I'm getting older, so I still need to take it easy and take care of myself." Qin Zhao said, looking at the orb: "Go and see the concubine off.
, please don’t let the concubine make any mistakes in Jinyang Palace, otherwise it will be my fault."
"Yes, your concubine!" Baozhu responded respectfully.
Concubine Wu was so bombarded by Qin Zhao that she couldn't answer her question, and in the end she could only return in frustration.
Baozhu returned to Qin Zhao and couldn't help but smile: "The princess' face was very ugly when she left Jinyang Palace."
The imperial concubine's ability to anger people to death has become even more powerful.
"The High Concubine is still the same as before. There is no one better than her. But I am like a fish in water in the harem. How can the High Concubine not be envious and jealous when she sees that I am so good?" Qin Zhao shook his head: "Don't talk about insignificant people.
Now, the most important thing is to hold the Lantern Festival well."
The next thing she has to do is to make the Lantern Festival and Longevity Festival go smoothly.
She is a person who doesn't want to use her brain. Coupled with the Longevity Festival, she really feels that there is no need to be too extravagant and wasteful. I believe this is also Xiao Ce's own wish.
She didn't mean to go against Concubine Wu on this point.
"I'm afraid that the concubine will stir things up behind her back. After all, this is the first time that the concubine will host such a grand festival. If something happens during the Longevity Festival, the emperor will..." The treasure came into Gu Yinjian's eyes.
Hidden, peeking at Qin Zhao's expression.
Qin Zhao sensed her sneaky eyes and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of? Your Majesty is my strongest backer. Even if I do something wrong, Your Majesty will be more tolerant."
"That's true. The emperor pampers the empress like this. No matter what the empress does, the emperor will think that the empress is not wrong." Baohong continued with a smile.
But this time, the empress really did nothing. She just copied what she had done before without putting in any effort. If the emperor knew about it, would he think that the empress was being lazy?
Or maybe the empress is afraid of making too many mistakes because she has no experience in managing big things?
She didn't dare to tell the truth.
When Xiao Ce came to Jinyang Palace that night, Qin Zhao took the initiative to mention to Xiao Ce his plan to keep everything simple during the Wanshou Festival.
After hearing this, Xiao Ce smiled slightly and raised his lips: "You girl obviously want to be lazy, right?"
"It doesn't matter what the emperor says. Anyway, the Wanshou Festival this time will be held according to the previous procedures. I also plan to shorten some unnecessary procedures. The emperor can just be the birthday girl in peace and enjoy this birthday. There is no need to worry about these trivial matters.
Something." Qin Zhao replied with a smile.
Xiao Ce originally wanted to ask Qin Zhao if he had prepared a birthday gift for him, but this was the first time she was in charge of harem affairs. The Wanshou Festival and the Lantern Festival were two major festivals piled together, and she was too busy to do anything.
Are you in the mood to prepare a birthday gift for him?
This question went around Xiao Ce's tongue, but in the end he still couldn't ask it.
"Has Mrs. Wu given you any trouble recently?" Xiao Ce asked about another serious matter.
Qin Zhao wondered how many people Xiao Ce had sent to watch Jinyang Palace. He clearly asked this question because he knew that Concubine Wu had been to Jinyang Palace in the past few days.
"Why is the concubine causing trouble to me for no reason? After all, the concubine is also assisting me in managing the harem. I still have a lot to learn." Qin Zhao gave an official answer,
It's just that I don't want a busy person like Xiao Ce to be distracted by the people and things in the harem.
Moreover, she felt that it was easy to deal with a concubine Wu, and there was no need to alert a big shot like Xiao Ce.
Qin Zhao's words blocked what Xiao Ce wanted to say next.
He had always thought that Qin Zhao was good at everything, smart and good-looking, sharp and generous, but now he felt that there was one thing wrong with her, that is, she was too independent and capable.
"Then if you encounter problems, remember to ask me for help." Xiao Ce retreated and asked for help.
Qin Zhao nodded like a fool and put a high hat on Xiao Ce: "Of course! The emperor is so powerful. All the problems that I can't solve are all solved by the emperor. In my heart, the emperor is the most powerful powerful person in the world.
There is no other one."
Her flattery made Xiao Ce's frown instantly relax.
It can only be said that there is no one in this world who doesn't like to hear good words, even a serious man like Xiao Ce is not immune to this.
