Chapter 630

After entering the Cihe Palace, Wu Xirou remembered the grand scene when the Empress Dowager was still the Empress Dowager. She remembered that that day was the Longevity Festival, and she was also fortunate to come to give gifts.

It's just that she doesn't have the heart of the empress dowager like Qin Zhao, and she has nothing to do with the gift.

Qin Zhao, on the other hand, was able to serve the Empress Dowager nearby.

The grand scene of the Longevity Festival that day seemed to be still in front of you. In just two months, the Cihe Palace changed its owner.

All I can say is that things are unpredictable.

After she calmed down, she walked towards the main hall.

The Empress Dowager Guo was dressed simply today and did not put any makeup on her face, so at first glance, the Empress Dowager Guo looked a little old-fashioned, not as imposing as when she was wearing makeup.

Wu Xirou didn't dare to look at Empress Dowager Guo any more, so she stepped forward and saluted: "My concubine respectfully invites the Empress Dowager's Empress Dowager Jin An, and the Empress Dowager is blessed."

Empress Dowager Guo carefully looked Wu Xirou up and down, and found that she learned etiquette and rules very well, but not necessarily as rigorous as Qin Zhao.

To be precise, among all the concubines and concubines in the harem she had met, none of them seemed to practice court etiquette as well as Qin Zhao.

Even Wu Xirou was worse than Qin Zhao.

However, this is enough.

"No gift, sit down." Empress Dowager Guo was quite satisfied with Wu Xirou.

After Wu Xirou entered the palace, she often waited for the writing and ink in front of the imperial palace, and she advanced and retreated in a moderate manner, not in a hurry or in a hurry, which was better than many people.

Wu Xirou took the seat as she was told.

After that, what Queen Mother Guo asked, she responded, neither humble nor arrogant.

The Queen Mother Guo secretly observed, but she was satisfied with Wu Xirou's etiquette. At least Wu Xirou is not as flamboyant as Concubine Wu, and her temperament is much calmer.

Empress Dowager Guo dragged Wu Xirou and chatted for about half an hour before letting Wu Xirou retire.

The moment she walked out of the Cihe Palace, Wu Xirou let out a sigh of relief, deeply feeling that Empress Dowager Guo was not simple, she just hoped Empress Dowager Guo would not put her dislike of the concubine aunt on her.

Liuli was also a little nervous, and asked in a low voice, "I don't know why the Empress Dowager is looking for Empress Xiurong to ask questions today?"

Wu Xirou recalled that the previous questioning process of the Queen Mother Guo was nothing more than gossip and some trivial things in life, but it was clearly the Queen Mother Guo who was observing her daily behavior.

If the Queen Mother Guo can get to know her carefully, it must be that the Queen Mother Guo thinks she is valuable.

This is a good thing.

If she had the support of the Queen Mother Guo, it would be easier for her to approach Xiao Ce. At least the Queen Mother Guo would not be her resistance, which she was stronger than Qin Zhao.

When she figured this out, she felt much more relaxed.

Not long after she left the Cihe Palace, she saw a familiar figure walking towards her in front of her. Could it be Qin Zhao?

The moment she saw Qin Zhao, Wu Xirou slowed down and wondered how could there be such a coincidence? She just came out of the Cihe Palace, and Qin Zhao couldn't wait to meet her?

It was clear that Qin Zhao wanted to inquire about the news when she saw that she had been edicted by the Empress Dowager Guo.

Wu Xirou has always been a thoughtful person, and in the blink of an eye, countless thoughts turned to her mind.

She didn't know that Qin Zhao was in Jinyang Palace on weekdays, and it was rare that he was in a good mood today.

Qin Zhao has not seen Wu Xirou for some days since the unhappy parting at Jinyang Palace that day.

Wu Xirou didn't want to meet Qin Zhao at this time, but she had to be polite. After she went up to greet her, she said in a hoarse voice, "Sister, why do you have time to go out today?"

"Seeing that the weather is good, I'll come out for a walk." Qin Zhao politely asked back, "Where did my sister come from?"

Wu Xirou lowered her eyes and replied, "The Empress Dowager ordered me to come out from the Cihe Palace."

Qin Zhao glanced at the direction of the Cihe Palace, and suddenly realized: "It turned out to be the Cihe Palace."

I heard that Empress Dowager Guo frequently met with the concubines of the harem recently, presumably to encourage everyone to be more active, so that Xiao Ce could give birth to an imperial heir as soon as possible.

She can understand feelings like the Queen Mother Guo, so she is not used to it.

"Exactly." Wu Xirou did not dare to say more.

Seeing Wu Xirou like this, Qin Zhao also guessed that Wu Xirou was guarding herself, and she opened her lips indifferently: "I'll go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to see the emperor, sister, please."

"Respectfully send my sister." Wu Xirou was respectful.

Following Wu Xirou's attention, Qin Zhao walked away slowly.

Seeing that Qin Zhao, the unsightly person, finally walked away, Liuli said softly, "Miss Qin knew that Empress Xiurong came out of the Cihe Palace, but she even deliberately tested Empress Xiurong. She has a lot of heart."

"Yeah, the Queen Mother doesn't like Sister Qin, that's why Sister Qin is worried about gains and losses, so she came here to make a chance encounter with me?" Wu Xirou replied softly.

If she didn't answer truthfully just now, she might make Qin Zhao think she was dishonest.

"Anyway, Empress Xiurong should guard against Miss Qin a little bit, but don't do anything wrong, or you won't know what happened if you are framed by Miss Qin." Liuli warned.

Wu Xirou looked back at the direction of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and opened her lips indifferently: "I know what I know."

Originally, she wanted to go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to show her face, but since Qin Zhao had gone, she might as well avoid it for the time being, so that Qin Zhao could not remember her.

As Qin Zhao walked towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the conversation between Wu Xirong's master and servant automatically entered her ears.

Therefore, she couldn't like Wu Xirou. He said that he wanted to be good sisters with her and make money with peace, but behind his back he always guarded her and treated the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

It was just a coincidence that she went out of Jinyang Palace to meet Wu Xirou, but Wu Xirou thought it was intentional, and said she was worried about gain and loss?

She really wanted to slap Wu Xirou, but she should not let anyone know that she has good ears. This is her exclusive secret.

After reaching the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Qin Zhao went straight to the Xinuan Pavilion.

I didn't want her to enter, and found that there were still several court officials, and Zhao Yu was one of them. Zhao Yu seems to have been promoted and became the minister of punishment.

At a young age, he took the position of the Minister of Punishment, and he knew that his future was promising.

Xiao Ce and the rest of the audience did not expect Qin Zhao to come over suddenly. Everyone dared not look directly at Qin Zhao. Zhao Yu stepped aside immediately and lowered his head.

Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw Qin Zhao's skirt dragging out a beautiful arc, and sweat oozes out of his palms unconsciously...

When Qin Zhao entered the Xinuan Pavilion, he felt a little abrupt, especially Xiao Ce's sudden sharp eyes, as if she had done something shameful.

Soon she remembered that Zhao Yu was her ex-husband, and she met her ex-husband, so is the emperor Xiao Ce unhappy?

The more she thought about it, the more she thought it was a possibility. In order to dispel Xiao Ce's doubts, she took the initiative to say hello to Zhao Yu: "Master Zhao, congratulations on your promotion, when your child is born, it will be a double happiness. By the way, your child should be soon Are you born?"

In terms of time, Yueqing is also about to give birth, which is indeed a double happiness.

Zhao Yu didn't expect that Qin Zhao would suddenly talk to him, he was stunned for a moment, and then replied with a straight face: "Come on, please remember."
