Chapter 1307 I Want to Suffocate
The Empress Dowager is an old man who has been in the harem for decades. How can she not know that the scene looks peaceful, but the dark tide is actually turbulent?
If it weren't for the fact that the position of the central palace had been vacant for too long, she would not want to be this villain.
Qin Zhao sat down for a while and then planned to leave. Seeing that she was leaving, Xiao Ce also got up: "I will send you back to Jinyang Palace."
Qin Zhao laughed when he heard the words: "The concubine is not a child, so I can go back by myself. The emperor is busy with government affairs, don't do it for the sake of the concubine..."
Xiao Ce didn't like to hear what she said, so he simply took her hand: "Zhaozhao, let's go."
Qin Zhao looked at Ce Xiao Ce and met his soft eyebrows. She couldn't say a word of refusal at the moment, and passively followed behind Xiao Ce.
Xiao Ce didn't walk much, but because he held her hand, it made her a little hard to follow.
Because the Empress Dowager and Huang Xianmeng were still watching, her face turned slightly pale.
"Niangniang, the concubine will see you next time." Qin Zhao did not forget to turn around and say to the Empress Dowager.
There was a blush on her face, charming but not demonic, beautiful and pure.
The Empress Dowager smiled and waved: "Go."
Watching Qin Zhao and Xiao Ce walk away hand in hand, Huang Xianmeng seemed to be insane.
"Meng'er, do you know Aijia's worries now?" The voice of the Empress Dowager came into Huang Xianmeng's ears.
Huang Xianmeng nodded silently: "Xianmeng understands."
Xiao Ce didn't just like Qin Zhao as simple as that. In fact, Xiao Ce took Qin Zhao to heart.
Although she didn't deal with Qin Zhao for a long time, she also liked Qin Zhao, even though Qin Zhao was Xiao Ce's favorite concubine.
Obviously she and Qin Zhao should be in opposing positions.
"Then do you still want to enter the palace? You have to know that A Ce is a slow-tempered, affectionate and ruthless child. Maybe you will never get his heart in your whole life, and you can only guard the position of a queen. Can you survive it?" The Empress Dowager said earnestly.
She is a past person. She has experienced the pain of unlovable love. She doesn't want to see such a good girl go back to the old road she has gone through.
Even if Huang Xianmeng is suitable for the position of queen, the price to pay is too heavy.
Huang Xianmeng was silent for a long time, and after a while she said, "I want to try, or I'm afraid I'll regret it, can my aunt help me?"
This is the only chance for her to get close to Xiao Ce. If she doesn't work hard this time, she will definitely not be reconciled in this life.
The Empress Dowager saw that Huang Xianmeng was still insisting, so she stopped persuading her.
Everyone has their own fate, and she can't interfere too much.
Qin Zhao followed Xiao Ce out of the Shoukang Palace, and the two abandoned their steps to travel. Qin Zhao enjoyed the rare leisure time with Xiao Ce.
The future is uncertain. If this harem really has a queen, she will definitely not be able to tolerate it, no matter how precious the queen's character is.
So, take advantage of the time when you have no grievances, and have a good time with Xiao Ce.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Qin Zhao glance at him from time to time, Xiao Ce wondered what she was looking at.
In a previous life, Qin Zhao would probably ask Xiao Ce directly, did he plan to make Huang Xianmeng his queen?
At that time, Qin Zhao never hit the south wall or turned his head. He couldn't hide things in his heart or words in his mouth. It is no longer as frizzy as it was in those days, and everyone knows that everyone has their own responsibility.
"A person's life is shortened by one day, just like looking at the emperor one glance and one less time." Qin Zhao said genuinely and falsely.
Xiao Ce slowed down, inexplicably feeling that there was something in this girl's words.
"We are still young, and we still have a long time to come." Xiao Ce squeezed Qin Zhao's palm.
Qin Zhao nodded yes, but felt that people's passion would fade with time, and she would also grow old in the future. If in a few years, Xiao Ce suddenly wants to be drafted again, and a new batch of newcomers are recruited, she may not be able to fight...
Aware of what he was thinking, Qin Zhao couldn't help laughing: "Yeah, our days are still long, the concubine and the emperor are still young."
"If you have something on your mind, please tell me." Xiao Ce straightened Qin Zhao's shoulder and said sternly.
Qin Zhao smiled brightly: "It's a rare occasion for a concubine to go deep, but the emperor doesn't cooperate. It's really boring."
Looking at her bright smile in the sun, Xiao Ce rubbed his eyebrows: "Are all women as fickle as you?"
Although there are many people in his harem, he has dealt with very few people, and Qin Zhao is unique.
Qin Zhao's smile deepened: "Qin Zhao is a unique existence in the world. This is what Emperor Jinkou Yuyan concluded."
Xiao Ce remembered that he said the words "unique", and Qin Zhao was indeed special.
After that, Xiao Ce talked and laughed with Qin Zhao, and when he returned to Jinyang Palace, Xiao Ce returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
Zhang Jixiang originally didn't want to get involved in this matter, but he understood that the imperial concubine's empress was lost because of Miss Huang, but the emperor didn't know anything about it.
He found that he couldn't see the noble concubine taking everything to heart, but the emperor did not know the heavy heart of the noble concubine.
When Xiao Ce was almost finished in the morning, Zhang Jixiang took a chance and handed over the roster of candidates for queens: "This is the roster of candidates for queens selected by the cabinet, please take a look at the emperor."
Xiao Ce frowned lightly: "Take it away!"
Zhang Jixiang made a gesture to get it back, but he failed to secure the roster. When the roster was opened, he was shocked and said: "It's a coincidence that Miss Huang is also on the candidate roster."
"Miss Huang?" Xiao Ce felt that Zhang Jixiang's voice was too sharp and harsh.
"Miss Huang Xianmeng." Zhang Jixiang knew that it was almost there.
Xiao Ce was silent for a moment, stretched out his hand, and Zhang Jixiang hurriedly put the roster in Xiao Ce's hand.
Xiao Ce did see that Huang Xianmeng was among the candidates, and he stood out in terms of life experience, talent, and appearance, so it was false that Huang Xianmeng entered the palace to serve illness, and was it true that the imperial grandmother was a matchmaker?
Zhang Jixiang saw that Xiao Ce carefully checked Huang Xianmeng's resume, and he couldn't figure out the meaning of his master for a while.
In his opinion, Miss Huang matches the emperor very well, and is the best candidate for the queen.
A girl recognized by the Empress Dowager must have a precious character.
But if Miss Huang becomes the queen, what should the noble concubine do?
He has already regarded the noble concubine as his mistress, and it is impossible to treat another woman as his mistress.
"The Huang family seems to be suitable for that position." Just when Zhang Jixiang was distracted, Xiao Ce suddenly broke the silence.
Zhang Jixiang did not dare to answer casually.
Regarding who is suitable for the back seat, this is a taboo topic, and there is no such thing as his minion.
Xiao Ce looked at Huang Xianmeng's painting for a long time, and he was a little lost.
In the past, he would have felt that Huang Xianmeng became the empress was a reasonable thing, the middle palace could not be vacant all the time, and the latter must be settled as soon as possible.
Now he is thinking, if Huang Xianmeng becomes the queen, then Qin Zhao, the noble concubine, will also be shorter than Huang Xianmeng. He can't imagine such a scene.
As long as he thought of Qin Zhao pouring tea and water to other women and being inferior, his heart was like a big stone, so heavy that he almost suffocated.
