"Okay, that's the end of the case." Xiao Ce was silent for a moment and gave an order.

Zhang Jixiang quietly looked at Xiao Ce, secretly wondering if his master had a conclusion in his heart?

Since taking the concubine back to the palace, the emperor has not been to Jinyang Palace for several days, and he pondered that it was also because of the robbery of the concubine Niangniang.

About a quarter of an hour later, Xiao Ce suddenly said, "It is said that I have not cared about King An all these years, it is my negligence. King An is more than 20 years old, and he has not yet married a wife, which is not right for me. ”

Zhang Jixiang's eyebrows jumped slightly, and he immediately understood that the emperor was going to give King An a marriage.

It's just that the emperor doesn't know much about the nobles of Kyoto, and most of this matter requires the noble concubine to draw up the list.

After that, Xiao Ce did explain this matter to Zhang Jixiang and asked him to go to Jinyang Palace.

Zhang Jixiang didn't dare to slack off, and went to Jinyang Palace as soon as possible and relayed Xiao Ce's meaning.

"Okay, the palace will draw up the list quickly, and let the emperor see it at that time." After listening to this, Qin Zhao replied.

Xiao Ce may not even remember which concubines in his harem are, let alone know which nobles there are in Kyoto. In addition, Empress Dowager Guo ignored mundane matters, and it was reasonable for Xiao Ce to hand over this matter to her.

Xiao Ce also asked Zhang Jixiang to run this trip this time, of course, he was not testing her.

After Zhang Jixiang left, Qin Zhao began to draw up a list of candidates for Princess An.

With the noble status of King An, he should be matched with a nobleman with a background, but Qin Zhao has his own ideas.

Since Xiao Yi is ambitious, he must not let Xiao Yi marry another family marriage with development potential. But King An likes beauties, which can satisfy Xiao Yi.

Qin Zhao had a good memory, and although she had never attended a gathering between those high-class nobles outside the palace, she had a preliminary impression of the ladies of various families.

It's not that difficult.

Qin Zhao also knew that Xiao Ce didn't want to see him very much, and at the same time, she didn't want to see Xiao Ce very much, so she asked Baozhu to hand over the list she had prepared into the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Xiao Ce didn't expect that it would be Baozhu who handed over the list, and he asked casually, "Is the concubine very busy?" ”

Baozhu remembered Qin Zhao's advice, so he copied Qin Zhao's original words: "The noble concubine is accompanying His Royal Highness." ”

Xiao Ce was silent and looked at the list of candidates apprehensively.

Baozhu quietly looked at the saint sitting on the dragon chair, but she couldn't see the saint's mood, she lowered her head, not daring to look at it again.

After Xiao Ce read the list drawn up by Qin Zhao, he quickly discovered the deep meaning of Qin Zhao's selection of these three candidates.

These three so-called noble girls were all born beautiful, but the family behind them was not on the stage. The officials of the previous generation of these three families did not do much, and they were all mediocre among the younger generation, and they couldn't make any waves in the court.

The orb was waiting quietly, but heard the low laughter of the saint.

She looked at the Holy Lord suspiciously, her face full of confusion.

Xiao Ce circled a name on the roster, and so he made a decision.

After Baozhu got the news, he returned to Jinyang Palace to reinstate: "The emperor has drawn up a list, and it is one of the candidates selected by Niangniang. Moreover, the emperor looked very happy. ”

If her estimate is correct, the emperor is very satisfied with the candidate selected by the mother, and the emperor is so happy.

"Just be happy." Qin Zhao breathed a sigh of relief.

I just don't know why Xiao Ce is happy, is it because she does things that make him happy?

Seeing that there was no smile on Qin Zhao's face, Baozhu hesitated: "The slave feels that the emperor will come to see Niangniang soon." ”

Niangniang told her about the robbery, and also said that the emperor was still investigating this matter.

Before the results of the investigation come out, the emperor will definitely have a knot.

In fact, she thinks that Niangniang herself also has a knot.

If it is really like what Niangniang said, she was despised by King An during Niangniang's sleep, no matter how generous a man is, he will mind, not to mention that the emperor still cares about Niangniang so much?

Niangniang's mood is easy to understand, most of them feel sorry for the emperor, right?

It's just that she can't figure out why a man like King An, who has no shortage of beauties, would take the idea of the concubine Niangniang to the point that there is a rift between the concubine Niangniang and the emperor.

Qin Zhao smiled and concentrated on playing a small game with Xiao Atom.

It was night, Qin Zhao was trying to go to bed early, but before he could lie down, he heard Xiao Ce's footsteps approaching.

For a while, she was a little overwhelmed, and even more panicked, in short, she was worried and didn't know what to do.

Before she could sort out her emotions, Xiao Ce had already entered.

Xiao Ce was dressed in a dark blue embroidered gold silk moire brocade robe, his black hair was tied with a jade crown, his posture was long, his shoulders were wide and his legs were long, his nose was straight and his eyebrows were trimmed, his eyes were like paint, and every step seemed to be stepping on her heart.

Qin Zhao's heartbeat unconsciously accelerated, but he felt that he hadn't seen him for a few days, and he seemed to be more charming.

She was nervous at the same time, but also indescribably flustered and at a loss.

The only thought is that he has always been possessive, and knowing that she is being taken advantage of by other men, will he be upset?

What she could understand was like she had an extra thorn in her heart.

Obviously, it was just a guess, but she felt more and more that Xiao Yi did it to her when she was not interesting. She felt uncomfortable, but she couldn't find an outlet.

Truth be told, she had never been so uneasy.

"Your Majesty......" Qin Zhao took a while to find his voice.

Xiao Ce sat down on the edge of the bed and stroked her cloud-like hair, "You don't have to get up, I'm tired." ”

Qin Zhao nodded silently, she stepped forward to help Xiao Ce widen his clothes, and when she took off his robe, she tentatively imprinted a kiss on his lips. She was about to deepen the kiss, but Xiao Ce avoided it.

Qin Zhao's heart was cold for a while, as if she was frozen, but she was also flustered, she fell back into the pillow, and suddenly she had no strength.

"I haven't bathed yet." Xiao Ce's voice seemed to come from the sky.

Qin Zhao didn't answer, she heard the sound of undressing in the clean room, and then the sound of water, but her heart became more and more uncomfortable.

Xiao Ce avoided her kiss, was it because he disliked her?

If so, then will she and Xiao Ce have a future?

She was flustered, oblivious to the passage of time. When she came back to her senses, Xiao Ce had already taken a proper bath and was lying down beside her.

Qin Zhao lay on his side with his face inside, motionless.

I don't know how long later, the man behind her suddenly moved, and his kiss suddenly fell on her neck.

For a moment she didn't know what his intentions were, and her body stiffened a little, until he turned her head around, and his kiss came like a spring breeze and drizzle, firmly trapping her in it......

Zhang Jixiang and Baozhu, who were waiting outside, were relieved when they heard the movement coming from the inner room.

In recent days, the two masters have not been normal, they are afraid that the two of them will become angry because of the hijacking incident, but fortunately it is not what they thought.

It's just that the situation this night is not like before, there was a lot of noise before, but this time the movement was small, and it didn't take too long.
