Chapter 991: Paving the Way for Her

Qin Zhao and Xiao Ce stepped forward to check almost at the same time.

When the man's mask was lifted, it was an inconspicuous-looking palace maid.

"Who is this, do you recognize it?" Qin Zhao looked at the other Maiko who had taken off their masks and asked.

Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads, indicating that they did not recognize the fallen Maiko.

They danced together day and night, and even if they didn't know each other, they also looked at each other. Only this one came out of nowhere, and they hadn't even seen it.

Xiao Ce probed Maiko's snort and found that Maiko had died of his life.

Luo Qing was a miracle doctor, and after helping the envoys to prick needles, he stopped several envoys from vomiting.

Because "green smoke" is a poison transmitted from breathing, the toxicity is very weak, but inhaling this poison will cause gastrointestinal discomfort.

At this time, the envoys were a little more energetic, remembering that there was indeed a maiko who had been very close to them, and waved their sleeves, but they did not take this matter to heart at the time.

I don't want to let them fall for such a trivial matter.

This change cast a shadow on the originally perfect Halloween, but Xiao Ce, the birthday star, didn't mind, he appeased a few envoys, and then investigated the matter thoroughly.

Later, after careful interrogation, it became known that someone imitated Qin Zhao's handwriting and gave an order, and the last dance was changed to a mask dance.

After that, He Shangyi also deliberately sent the letter to Qin Zhao.

Even after Qin Zhao herself read the letter, she sighed that the other party had imitated the essence of her handwriting, and she felt that it had reached the point of being fake.

But He Shangyi did not come to confirm this matter to her in person, but believed a letter credulously, which He Shangyi was too careless.

Of course, He Shangyi also knew that she was derelict in her duties, and she said that she was willing to take all the responsibility.

"Knowing that mistakes can be changed, good is great, you must not make the same mistake again in the future, this time this palace forgives you, but there must not be a next time!" Qin Zhao is colorful.

He Shangyi didn't expect Qin Zhao to forgive herself so easily, and she was immediately grateful: "Xiaguan Xie Niangniang's grace!" ”

"Next, take care of the aftermath, and don't be careless." Qin Zhao ended the topic.

Xiao Ce saw that Qin Zhao was immersed in his thoughts, and comforted her: "You have done a good job of this festival, I am very satisfied. ”

Although there was a little episode, the envoy calmed down the emotions and did not kill anyone, and it did not have a big impact.

"The concubine just can't figure out what the other party's intentions are." Qin Zhao expressed the confusion in his heart: "If you really want to do it, shouldn't you be ruthless and let the envoy have no return?" ”

It didn't hurt, but it made her vigilant, but it didn't cause any real harm.

After thinking about it, she always felt that this matter was not so simple.

Although he didn't find out who the real murderer was as he did in the past, this time it was really unnecessary. In other words, if she is her, she will kill the killer, cause casualties, and make it impossible for the envoys of other countries to get out of the Great Qi Palace alive, so that the contradictions between Great Qi and other countries will be caused, and it will be difficult for Great Qi to explain to other countries.

"You have a point, but it's a good thing that the current outcome is under control." Xiao Ce saw her frowning, so he simply took her into his arms, "Take your time, you did a good job this time, you don't need to put too much pressure on yourself." ”

It was the first time she hosted such a large-scale event, and some people wanted to stir up trouble at the banquet, and they undoubtedly came for her and gave her a face.

Why didn't he directly poison the envoy, probably because he didn't want things to be too ugly, he guessed that the other party's purpose was to make him doubt Qin Zhao's ability.

If there is no accident, it should be the harem concubines.

Qin Zhao gave birth to a small atom before, and he was already hated by others, but now he is presiding over the affairs of the harem, and he is even more jealous of many people, so he was framed this time.

"The concubine didn't feel that this was pressure."

As soon as Qin Zhao's words fell, he saw Zhang Jixiang come to report: "Your Majesty, Concubine Wu is here." ”

Without waiting for Xiao Ce to report, Concubine Wu hurried over and came to Qin Zhao and Xiao Ce: "This time, the mourning family handed over the power of managing the harem to the concubine, but there was such a big mistake, does the emperor still want to protect the concubine?" ”

Qin Zhao secretly wondered that Xiao Ce hadn't spoken yet, but Concubine Wu beat her and Xiao Ce to death with a thump, what the hell is this?

Could it be that the person who made this shot was Concubine Wu?

Judging from the results of her so many dealings with Concubine Wu, Concubine Wu did this kind of thing. But as soon as Concubine Wu made a move, she would definitely die, not give her a chance to turn the tables.

Perhaps Concubine Wu's purpose was to seize power, not to kill the visiting envoys.

"This time it's not that the concubine is ineffective, but someone is framing her, the concubine doesn't need to be responsible, and at the same time I don't need to protect the concubine, the concubine has done a good job." Xiao Ce is a short-term protector, and the first time to protect him is of course Qin Zhao.

"Although someone framed it, it is a fact that the concubine is not doing well, and the emperor must be fair and just, and give everyone an explanation." Concubine Wu is unreasonable, and she is naturally authentic.

When Qin Zhao heard this, he was curious: "What does the concubine want to do?" ”

"The suggestion of the mourning family is to add another concubine to manage the harem, assist the concubine from the side, and one more person to manage it, so as to avoid the mistakes that occurred this time. This time, it was the concubine's luck that she didn't die, if the envoy died at the banquet, I was afraid that the concubine would accompany this life. Concubine Wu said with a proud expression.

Qin Zhao instantly understood. Concubine Wu said so much, it turned out that she wanted to pave the way for Wu Xirou.

If there is a chance in the future, Wu Xirou can also be allowed to control the power of managing the harem alone.

As long as Wu Xirou's right to manage the harem is in hand, the women of the Wu family will be able to call for wind and rain in this harem at that time.

I have to say that Concubine Wu's wishful thinking is very loud.

"I don't know who the concubine wants to help the palace manage the harem?" Qin Zhao asked curiously.

"From the perspective of position, only Concubine Xian is the most suitable. In addition, Concubine Xian has a calm temperament and is careful in her work, so it is perfect for Concubine Xian to assist Concubine from the side. "Concubine Wu is rightfully back.

Qin Zhao pondered for a while before he said, "In this way, please come over and ask Concubine Xian what she means." ”

She doesn't care, with one more person to take care of the harem, she can also be lazy. On top of that, she could also take the opportunity to observe the reactions of Wu Xirou and the other harem concubines.

She has nothing to lose anyway, anyway, one more person has less work, why not?

Xiao Ce looked at Qin Zhao and thought she was talking negatively.

But looking at Qin Zhao's expression, he knew that this girl really didn't mind having one more person in charge of the harem, and he didn't know whether to be glad that she had a big heart.

When Wu Xirou went to Jinyang Palace and saw that Concubine Wu was also there, she was a little surprised.
