Chapter 654 Competition
"Ms. Qin's popularity is really good." Princess Yongning and the presiding officer of Yongchun had different opinions.
Except for those harem concubines who hated Qin Zhao, Qin Zhao was indeed likable. Even Yonghe, who usually does not interact with people, made friends with Qin Zhao. At that time, she knew that Qin Zhao was a special existence in this palace.
"You were not like this before." Princess Yongchun glared at Princess Yongning, dissatisfied with Princess Yongning's words for echoing Qin Zhao's words.
Princess Yongning smiled: "I'm just telling the truth."
She squinted at the front, the Queen Mother Guo was surrounded by everyone, and the battle was huge, but her mother died the day she gave birth.
If Empress Dowager Guo was the murderer who killed her mother, she would definitely find a way to avenge her mother.
Qin Zhao felt the absent-mindedness of Princess Yongning, she followed the line of sight of Princess Yongning, and she understood it instantly.
Princess Yongning came to her today, didn't she want to join forces with her to deal with the Queen Mother Guo?
But at this time, she couldn't make a move, because she had to take into account Xiao Ce's feelings.
Since there is a ready-made help from Princess Yongning, why does she need to do this?
Empress Dowager Guo has many enemies. If Empress Dowager Guo had done something to Princess Yongning's biological mother before, then Empress Dowager Guo had done more than this one bad thing.
There may be other bitter masters, but there are few harem concubines from the previous dynasty who stayed in the palace. The best candidate she could think of was Princess Yongning.
The eldest princess Yong Ning is by no means good, and I am afraid that she will not be reconciled to see her alone, so she will be called to the Royal Garden on a day like today.
Could it be that Princess Yongning prepared some "surprise" for Empress Dowager Guo today?
Thinking of this possibility, Qin Zhao suddenly felt that he was careless.
Princess Yonghe once warned her that Princess Yongning was not a good person.
Princess Yongning and Princess Yonghe are similar in the harem. Princess Yonghe is isolated from the world, but Princess Yongning and Princess Yongchun become the best sisters, and let Princess Yongchun put her first in everything. After so many years, Princess Yongning has also found a good relationship. If she hadn't messed up, Princess Yongning might have also found a good marriage.
An eldest princess with a plan and a strategy, but she wants to use this eldest princess to deal with the Queen Mother Guo, and if she changes positions with the eldest princess Yongning, she will probably not be willing to be used.
"This chrysanthemum viewing party is not interesting, the two eldest princesses continue to visit, I'm back." Facing the unknown, Qin Zhao felt that he should avoid risks.
When Princess Yongchun heard this, her face sank: "I kindly asked you to come, and you want to leave after you came?!"
Qin Zhao returned to Princess Yongchun with a smirk: "I just think this flower viewing will be boring. Why don't I read my words in Jinyang Palace to pass the time."
So, even if her piano, chess, calligraphy and painting have improved, what's the use of learning this?
At this moment, Nianyun suddenly turned back and said to Qin Zhao, "Miss Qin, the Empress Dowager has a request."
Qin Zhao looked at Eldest Princess Yongning, who just happened to be looking over, "Since the Empress Dowager has requested, Miss Qin should not be busy returning to Jinyang Palace."
Qin Zhao's lips curved slightly: "The Empress Dowager has invited me, of course I can't leave without authorization, otherwise I will be ignorant."
Nianyun glanced at Qin Zhao and met Qin Zhao's clear eyes, as if Qin Zhao knew what the Queen Mother Guo's purpose was.
In fact, Qin Zhao did know the real purpose of Empress Dowager Guo calling her over. Just because she knew about what happened in front of her, and her ears were good, the conversations of these people automatically passed into her ears.
There is nothing more than a noble girl named Zhang Yun who is very good at chess and intends to compete with her. After the Queen Mother Guo heard about this, she was naturally happy to facilitate it.
If Zhang Yun could make her feel ashamed, it would be a pleasant surprise.
Under the leadership of Nianyun, Qin Zhao and the two eldest princesses went to the Empress Dowager Guo.
As Qin Zhao said, Zhang Yun intends to play a game with her.
Qin Zhao had not noticed Zhang Yun before. At that time, as soon as she arrived at the scene, she was so blinded by the beauty that she was unable to take a closer look at the appearance of the beauty present.
At this moment, Zhang Yun stood up, and Qin Zhao realized that Zhang Yun was not ordinary. Zhang Yun's beauty makes people very comfortable, not very stunning, but very classical.
When she was close, she could still smell the fragrance of ink emanating from Zhang Yun's body.
Seeing Qin Zhao, Zhang Yun's attitude was very respectful: "Ms. Qin has long heard that Miss Qin's chess skills are extraordinary. I am fortunate enough to meet her this time. I just want to learn from her, and I also hope that Miss Qin can give me some advice."
Qin Zhao thought that the other party was here to provoke her, but seeing Zhang Yun's attitude was so good, her first impression of Zhang Yun was not bad: "Most of them are rumors, and I don't dare to give advice."
She does have a bit of talent at chess, but what gives her a boost is her extraordinary memory, which she has to admit.
If she meets another talented master, she may not be able to win.
Zhang Yun seems to be a legendary master.
"The girl is as beautiful as the legend, and her chess skills are definitely extraordinary. Please, girl!" Zhang Yun couldn't hide her excitement, and her eyes lit up when she looked at Qin Zhao.
Qin Zhao wondered if he had met a little fan girl, and Zhang Yun looked at her with too much fanaticism.
The Queen Mother Guo frowned almost invisible when she saw this scene. She hoped that someone would dampen Qin Zhao's spirit. Zhang Yun said that she wanted to find Qin Zhao to play chess, but this was not the style she thought.
The game between Qin Zhao and Zhang Yun attracted a lot of people to watch.
Qin Zhao didn't dare to despise his opponent, which was different from when he faced Wu Xirou. As soon as Zhang Yun made her move, she knew that Zhang Yun's chess skills were not ordinary.
The two of you come and go, and you pay full attention to it, and soon forget about the people and things around you.
Wu Xirou also stood by and watched the chess.
When she was watching, she knew that there was a sky outside the sky, and there were people outside the world, and she said that Zhang Yun's chess skills were not comparable to her.
Before today, she felt that Qin Zhao's victory over her was just a fluke. But seeing Qin Zhao playing against Zhang Yun today, she realized how shallow she used to be.
Everyone who was interested in playing chess was watching, and everyone watched with relish. The Queen Mother Guo saw that there were a lot of people around, but the atmosphere between Zhang Yun and Qin Zhao was so peaceful, which made her unhappy.
She wanted Qin Zhao to be embarrassed. These good people onlookers were clearly just watching the show. It was too peaceful to cause trouble.
Her gaze finally settled on Wu Xirou's face.
Wu Xirou's biggest opponent is Qin Zhao. She wants to help Wu Xirou, and naturally she values Wu Xirou's usefulness. Presumably the person who least expects Qin Zhao to win at this moment is Wu Xirou, right?
Just when Empress Dowager Guo had a quick calculation in her heart, someone came to her side: "Why don't the empress sit down for a while, the game between Miss Qin and Miss Zhang shouldn't be decided so quickly."
