Chapter 1309 Love Is a Matter of Two People
Speaking of which, Qin Zhao didn't have much confidence.
Of course, Xiao Ce in his previous life valued Qi's fortune. In his heart, nothing could be more important than Da Qi. How could she be a mere woman who is worthy of the emperor's hegemony?
She knew that she was not worth it, so she looked away.
If Xiao Ce really becomes an empress one day, she has no right to resent Xiao Ce. All she can do is to take care of herself and live in the Jinyang Palace in the future, trying not to see Xiao Ce.
In the past, when she didn't have any feelings for Xiao Ce, she didn't care how many people there were in his harem, but now, she couldn't just watch him add people to the harem and be indifferent.
In other words, love is honey and arsenic.
"Don't worry, Ben Gong knows what he wants and knows what he wants." Qin Zhao reassured Baozhu.
She would never have to die for a man. After all, she still has children. Even without Xiao Ce's favor, she can still live a good life.
Seeing Qin Zhao say this, Baozhu no longer hesitated.
The emperor hasn't come for the past few days, but the rumors in the harem have continued. She felt that the empress had fallen out of favor.
But as long as Niang Niang knew something, everything would not be a problem.
Two more days passed peacefully before Huang Xianmeng got up when he heard someone from the Shoukang Palace whispering. The general idea is that she is going to be the queen, and when she becomes the queen, Qin Zhao will have a powerful enemy.
Hearing how these two palace servants were arguing recklessly, such rumors must have spread in the harem.
If she were Qin Zhao, hearing these rumors would definitely make her feel uncomfortable, right?
She didn't mean to embarrass Qin Zhao, but Qin Zhao was troubled by rumors because of her, which was not a result she was happy with.
After thinking about it, she decided to go to Jinyang Palace to meet Qin Zhao.
Huang Xianmeng has always been an activist. Today is the end of the day, and this time is the same. She prepared some gifts and went to Jinyang Palace.
She got up early and didn't know Qin Zhao's daily routine. When she went to visit Qin Zhao in the main hall of Jinyang Palace, Qin Zhao was still asleep.
The people serving in the main hall naturally would not make an exception because of Huang Xianmeng. Everyone had a tacit understanding and did not wake up Qin Zhao, but let Huang Xianmeng wait in the hall.
Huang Xianmeng heard Bao Lan say that Qin Zhao hadn't woken up yet, so she waited in the hall with peace of mind.
After waiting, it took an hour to see Qin Zhao Shi Shi Ran come out of the inner hall.
Qin Zhao came out after washing up. He hadn't had breakfast yet. Because he had enough sleep, he didn't put any grease on his face, but there was a healthy blush on his face, as if he had applied the best rouge.
Huang Xianmeng couldn't help but look at Qin Zhao more, and the more he looked, the more he felt that Qin Zhao was as beautiful as a fairy moth, no wonder Xiao Ce favored him.
She went up to see Li, Qin Zhao waved, "Miss Huang, don't be too polite."
Huang Xianmeng was polite for a while, and then led to the topic: "Today, the people heard the rumors in the harem. I was afraid that the imperial concubine would misunderstand, so she specially came to visit the noble concubine. The imperial concubine is the one that the emperor's cousin cares about. The noble concubine has no malice..."
Qin Zhao seemed to listen slowly and carelessly, and when Huang Xianmeng finished speaking, she did not answer.
For a time, Huang Xianmeng didn't know how Qin Zhao was feeling.
Seeing the sudden silence, Huang Xianmeng suddenly felt a little embarrassed no matter how talkative he was.
"To be honest, when Minnv met the emperor's cousin in the early years, she fell in love with the emperor's cousin at first sight, and she has never forgotten it for so many years. Now that she has the opportunity to get close to the emperor's cousin, Minnv really does not want to miss this good opportunity. It's very difficult to meet someone you really like in your life. Missing the emperor's cousin should be the biggest regret of the girl in her life, so the girl wants to try her best." Huang Xianmeng said again and again. Sincerely.
Qin Zhao listened and laughed.
She felt that Huang Xianmeng was a really good woman, if Huang Xianmeng hadn't robbed her of the same man.
If Xiao Ce really wanted to stand up, it would be better to stand up like Huang Xianmeng.
It's a pity that her heart is too narrow, she can't watch Xiao Ce marry a wife, and like a grudge, she will change beyond recognition one day in the future.
Huang Xian dreamed that Qin Zhaoguang smiled and did not speak, so he couldn't understand Qin Zhao's mind for a while.
"It's really abrupt that the people's daughter came to see the imperial concubine this time. I hope the imperial concubine is not surprised." Huang Xianmeng said, suddenly feeling a little reckless.
Although she has no malicious intentions, outsiders may not think so, and she may have caused chaos for Qin Zhao, triggering speculations among the concubines and concubines in the harem.
Qin Zhao shook his head: "It's okay, Ben Gong never cares about gossip. But Ben Gong thinks that love is always a matter of two people, and if there is a third person, it will be too crowded. Miss Huang is still young, so she can't see through feelings. Things are actually not that complicated, but Ben Gong is someone who has come here and has a deep understanding."
She said to Baozhu: "Go and send Miss Huang."
Pearl responded softly.
Huang Xianmeng was stunned for a moment, then got up and said, "Minnu retire."
She took a few steps and looked back at Qin Zhao, who met the gentle brows of the present noble concubine.
There is such a kind of person in this world, just sitting there and shining, it's hard for people to ignore her.
When she walked out of Jinyang Palace in a daze, she was still recalling what Qin Zhao said just now.
Qin Zhao said that the relationship is only a matter of two people, if there is a third person, it will be too crowded.
Could it be that besides Qin Zhao, Xiao Ce never favored other concubines? Impossible, right? Xiao Ce was an emperor, although he favored Qin Zhao, it was impossible to favor Qin Zhao alone.
There are so many fresh and beautiful beauties in this harem, how could Xiao Ce only touch Qin Zhao?
Although he knew that Xiao Ce treated Qin Zhao differently from others, Huang Xianmeng was still shocked by his guess.
She returned to Shoukang Palace with a heavy heart, and the Empress Dowager asked with concern: "Didn't you mean to see Zhao girl? What's with this expression?"
Huang Xianmeng asked hesitantly, "Auntie grandmother, has the emperor's cousin only favored the imperial concubine?"
The Empress Dowager was stunned for a moment, and after a while she replied, "This..."
She wanted to say that it shouldn't be, so she said that Cui Jieyu, didn't she have been favored?
"Girl, why do you ask such a strange question?" The Empress Dowager's heart tangled.
She never thought that maybe Cui Jieyu's favor was just a pretense, maybe Tong Shiguan was also helping A Ce to cover up, and this child of A Ce was only a woman named Zhao girl.
"I-I'm just curious." Huang Xianmeng's face turned pale.
Because Qin Zhao said that love is a matter of two people, but there are clearly so many concubines in this harem. The only explanation is that apart from Qin Zhao, Xiao Ce never touched other concubines.
She thought that she was not the extra third person, because there were already so many women in this harem. If her guess was right, wouldn't she be the extra third person?
