Chapter 265: Grounded Again
Qin Zhao said, and kissed Xiao Ce's face hard: "Your Highness saved the concubine again today, and meeting Your Highness is the greatest blessing in the concubine's life." β
After she finished speaking, she hugged Xiao Ce's waist and felt very stable in her heart.
It seems that as long as Xiao Ce is there, all difficulties are no longer difficulties, and she likes this sense of stability.
Xiao Ce looked at Qin Zhao's quiet sleeping face, and the anxiety in his heart gradually subsided.
Although Wu Guifei was not executed today, there is still a chance in the future, there is no need to worry, the father cannot protect Wu Guifei forever.
As for Wu Liangyuan, it has become tricky......
Two days later, Wu Xiyu was grounded.
She heard that Concubine Wu Guifei was beaten into the cold palace, so she specially went to the main hall to find Xiao Ce to ask about it.
Xiao Ce didn't look at Wu Xiyu squarely, nor did he answer Wu Xiyu's question, which made Wu Xiyu very anxious, because Xiao Ce wouldn't have been so cold to her before.
"His Royal Highness gave a word to the concubine, did His Highness force the emperor to send the concubine Niangniang into the cold palace?"
How could Xiao Ce be so ruthless?
"Lone is busy." Xiao Ce looked at Zhang Jixiang and opened his lips indifferently.
Zhang Jixiang immediately understood, he went to Wu Xiyu and said: "Liangyuan, please go back to Qiu Wangqiu first, His Royal Highness is busy with business, and no one is allowed to disturb him." β
Wu Xiyu was unwilling to leave like this, she staggered Zhang Jixiang, rushed to Xiao Ce and asked: "The concubine body just wants a word from His Royal Highness, isn't this okay?" His Royal Highness must have been confused by Sister Qin, so he went against the noble concubine everywhere......"
"Take Wu Liangyuan back to Wangqiu Pavilion and continue to be grounded. Without Lone's permission, Wu Liangyuan was not allowed to take half a step out of Wangqiu Pavilion! Xiao Ce didn't want to listen to Wu Xiyu anymore, so he gave an order in a cold voice.
Wu Xiyu's face changed slightly.
She was just lifted, but Xiao Ce issued another grounding order, so wouldn't she become the laughing stock of the East Palace?
"How can His Royal Highness treat the concubine like this, how does this make the sisters of the East Palace look at the concubine?" She was crying, unable to understand why Xiao Ce was so cold-blooded and ruthless.
"Zhang Jixiang, take people away!" Xiao Ce made no secret of his impatience.
As long as he thought of the scene where Qin Zhao was almost hanged on a tree, he couldn't put on a good face to Wu Xiyu.
After he deliberately snubbed Qin Zhao, he didn't let Qin Zhao live better than before, in that case, why did he have to face Wu Xiyu again?
Wu Xiyu's face turned pale, and tears couldn't stop falling, but Xiao Ce didn't look at her squarely.
Filled with shame, she turned and ran out of the main hall.
Her speed was very fast, and when Zhang Jixiang chased out of the main hall, Wu Xiyu was no longer visible. He thought that Wu Xiyu had returned to Wangqiu Pavilion, so he went to Wangqiu Pavilion.
In fact, after Wu Xiyu ran out of the main hall, the more he thought about it, the more unwilling he became, so he simply ran into the Moon Pavilion, wanting to question Qin Zhao face to face.
Qin Zhao was working hard in the study to pick up the piano score, wanting to learn a few more tunes in case of emergency, when Wu Xiyu rushed in.
There was a cup of tea on the desk, it should have been freshly brewed, the white mist was curling, Qin Zhao's face was just behind the white mist, like seeing flowers in the fog, not very real, revealing hazy beauty.
When Wu Xiyu rushed in, what caught his eye was the quiet scene of these years.
"Qin ...... Sister ......" Wu Xiyu opened her lips with difficulty.
It's this woman who took everything away from her, if it weren't for Qin Zhao, she wouldn't have fallen to the point where she is now, she wouldn't be just a little good woman, and she wouldn't be so degraded by Xiao Ce.
Why is she living so miserably, and the concubine's aunt was also thrown into the cold palace because of Qin Zhao, but Qin Zhao is still living so comfortably?
Why?!
"My sister is here?" Qin Zhao raised his eyes and looked at Wu Xiyu, with gentle eyebrows and eyes.
Wu Xiyu clenched her fists, and she said in a dumb voice: "I just came to ask, why was the concubine Niangniang sent to the cold palace?" Did my sister do something?! β
"This is for my sister and the concubine. Didn't you want to kill me and take the lead in stirring up the trouble? Since I'm not dead, then I have to eat the consequences of the concubine's own life. My sister has been in the East Palace these days, and she won't be so naΓ―ve that she thinks that she doesn't need to pay the price for doing bad things, right? Qin Zhao smiled lightly, and the room was suddenly full of spring.
"IβI don't know what my sister is talking about." Wu Xiyu's eyes flashed slightly.
Aunt Guifei said that there was a way to get rid of Qin Zhao, even if Qin Zhao did not die, Qin Zhao would be able to shed his skin, and Qin Zhao would no longer be a threat to her at that time.
When she learned of this, she volunteered and decided to block all of Qin Zhao's retreats.
Qin Zhao will ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to be a rescuer every time, this time she wants to put an end to this possibility, as long as she drags His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and gives Aunt Guifei enough time, she will definitely make Aunt Guifei successful.
Who knew that the result she waited for was that Aunt Guifei was beaten into the cold palace, and Qin Zhao was fine without any damage.
A palace fighting master like Aunt Guifei couldn't get rid of Qin Zhao, but instead got herself into the cold palace, how could this be?
"Of course you do. Although you don't have the deep scheming of the concubine, you have inherited the viciousness of the concubine. It's a pity that I didn't die at the hands of the concubine, you must be very disappointed, right? The smile on Qin Zhao's face gradually subsided.
Wu Xiyu still had the face to question her why Wu Guifei was sent to the cold palace.
Wu Guifei committed such a crime, if it weren't for the emperor's protection, she should have been executed.
"Sister, I, I really don't know......" Wu Xiyu took two steps back, wanting to deny Qin Zhao's statement.
But she was very weak-hearted.
She did know that Aunt Guifei wanted to get rid of Qin Zhao, and she was trying her best to cooperate, she just didn't expect that a character like Aunt Guifei would actually be planted in Qin Zhao's hands, which was incredible.
"Stop acting in front of me, I'm not interested in your clumsy acting." Qin Zhao said and looked at the orb: "Send off!" β
Baozhu immediately went to Wu Xiyu and "please" Wu Xiyu to leave.
At this time, Zhang Jixiang came over and sent Wu Xiyu back to Wangqiu Pavilion.
After Wu Xiyu stepped into the Wangqiu Pavilion, he watched the door of the Wangqiu Pavilion close.
She was at a loss in her heart.
The concubine and aunt were all beaten into the cold palace because of Qin Zhao, and she was grounded again, who else could she rely on from now on?
"Liangyuan is not in a hurry, the old slave heard that the Queen Mother is about to return to the palace. When the Queen Mother returns to the palace, she will be the master of Liangyuan and the noble concubine. Mama Zhong saw that Wu Xiyu was depressed and comforted her.
Wu Xiyu's eyes lit up when she heard Mama Zhong mention the Queen Mother: "Are you sure that the Queen Mother will return to the palace soon?" β
"I'm sure, I've heard that I've already left for Kyoto. At the latest, she will return to the palace within half a month, and at that time, the concubine will definitely be rescued by the Queen Mother, and Liangyuan will no longer have to be grounded. Mama Zhong replied in the affirmative.
It is not a secret that the queen mother and will return to the palace, many people know that the concubine Niangniang has specially mentioned this matter to her before, so she can't be wrong.
