"Since the palace has agreed, it is natural that this matter will be mentioned to the emperor. Whether the emperor will agree or not, that is the emperor's business, and the palace cannot control it. Alright, let's all disperse. Qin Zhao felt that there was no need to waste everyone's time.

Having said that, she didn't want to listen to the many complaints of these women.

Everyone present was about to disperse, when they suddenly heard Qin Zhao say again: "Xu Cairen stays." ”

Xu Cairen was a little surprised, she looked back at Qin Zhao, but Qin Zhao didn't look at her directly, and retreated from the others, leaving only her and Xiao Qingzi.

After the others left Kunning Palace in turn, Qin Zhao beckoned Xu Cairen to sit down.

"Dare to ask the mother what she commands?" Xu Cairen asked.

Qin Zhao smiled: "There are no special orders, it's just that I suddenly wonder what other sisters you have in your family?" ”

The news that Xiao Linzi found out was that Xu Cairen was adopted by the Xu family when he was five years old, It stands to reason that he already has memories when he was five years old, so does Xu Cairen still remember that he has a sister?

Xu Cairen didn't expect Qin Zhao to ask such a question, She said truthfully: "The concubine's parents are healthy, and there are sisters in the family. ”

Qin Zhao suddenly asked her to stay and ask such a strange question?

"As far as this palace knows, Xu Cairen, you were adopted, where were your relatives before the adoption?" Qin Zhao said suddenly.

Xu Cairen's psychological quality is very good, but when Qin Zhao suddenly threw out this question, her face still changed.

She opened her mouth, and suddenly she couldn't speak.

Seeing this, Qin Zhao smiled: "Is the question of this palace so difficult?" ”

She looked at Xiao Qingzi as she spoke, and asked again, "Xiao Qingzi, is Xu Cairen's family okay before adoption?" ”

Xiao Qingzi didn't expect Qin Zhao to ask himself, he subconsciously looked at Xu Cairen, but Xu Cairen was immersed in his own thoughts and didn't receive his gaze for help.

"Slaves, slaves don't know." Xiao Qingzi bowed his head and replied.

His first reaction was that the identity of the little lord was exposed, and the queen mother already knew that the little lord was working for King An.

Otherwise, why would the queen mother suddenly ask the little lord about this directly?

"I heard that Xu Cairen's original family was very poor, did he forget his roots because of this, and later he was even more blinded by wealth?" Qin Zhao said, taking a leisurely sip of tea: "Actually, the reason why this palace has a showdown with you is because I want to know the identity of the person behind you. ”

"The concubine can't understand what the mother is saying!" Xu Cairen opened his lips coldly, and finally returned to normalcy at this time.

Qin Zhao should just be playing tricks on her, this woman doesn't have any evidence in her hands, and she can't be convicted.

Qin Zhao smiled a little: "Of course you know!" Childe Kazeki is a group of people, and you are one of them. Do you think that this palace has nothing in its hands and will have a showdown with you like this? ”

Xu Cai's people were in turmoil, and she was already in a mess.

Kokeiko is also very messy. He is Xu Cairen's confidant, no wonder the queen left him alone just now.

"Forgive the concubine for being stupid, the concubine really can't understand what the mother says." Xu Cairen gritted his teeth and didn't want to be fooled.

She still felt that Qin Zhao was tricking her words, but every word Qin Zhao said made her tremble.

"If you are five years old, you should have a memory, so do you remember that you have a sister?" Qin Zhao suddenly killed Xu Cairen again, and he was caught off guard.

Xu Cairen looked at Qin Zhao in astonishment, "What, what?" ”

What did Qin Zhao know? Why do you still know that she has a real sister? But as soon as she was born, she was given to her uncle, and she rarely interacted with her own sister.

But she always remembered that she had an older sister who liked her very much, and occasionally came to visit her and bring her something to eat.

Although she was abandoned by her biological mother, her sister did not forget her as a younger sister, even when she was still young......

"You don't have to doubt that this palace already knows who you are, and it also knows who your sister is. If you are willing to explain who is behind the scenes in the palace, this palace can help you sisters to recognize each other. Qin Zhao said lightly.

It can only be said that the black hand in the harem is very deeply hidden, and she has not found any clues so far.

But with an identity like Xu Cairen, he must know who that person is.

That's why she proposed to make a deal with Xu Cairen, whether Xu Cairen wanted to make this deal or not, she had no loss.

"It's a win-win situation, you can think about it again and step down." Qin Zhao said and got up, "Even if you don't cooperate with the main palace, the black hand of the harem will find out in a short time!" ”

Xu Cairen stood in the main hall for a while before he came to his senses, and when Xiao Qingzi saw this, he stepped forward to help: "Little master, let's go back to Yonghua Palace first." ”

This is to remind Xu Cairen that this is Kunning Palace, which is full of Qin Zhao's ears and eyes, beware that the wall has ears.

When he returned to Yonghua Palace, Xu Cairen finally eased up.

"Xiao Qingzi, what do you think?" Xu Cairen had already abandoned the others at this time, leaving only Xiao Qingzi to serve in front of him.

"The Queen doesn't look like a bluff. Now it depends on how the little master chooses, whether he wants to see the little master's sister, or whether he wants to protect the lord loyally. Xiao Qingzi said.

Xu Cairen sighed before saying: "I just didn't expect the queen mother to find me so quickly, looking at the queen's confident appearance, I'm afraid that the identity of that person will not be hidden." ”

With the emperor's protection like that, Qin Zhao can do everything he wants to get twice the result with half the effort.

If she really has any unfulfilled wishes in this life, it should be to see her sister who loves her again.

She was abandoned by her mother when she was a child, and later sold to Renyazi by her uncle, and then entered the palace to become a chess piece.

She has never lived for herself in this life, and the only person who treats her well is her sister.

"Is the little lord going to make a deal with the queen?" Xiao Qingzi asked.

Xu Cairen shook his head slowly: "My heart is in a mess, let me think about it again." ”

In fact, she knew that Qin Zhao had suspected her for a long time, and she also knew that her identity would be exposed one day. It's just that she didn't expect that on this day when she was unprepared, Qin Zhao had a showdown with her.

"The queen is not a good person, and the slave is afraid that the queen will cross the river and tear down the bridge." Xiao Qingzi voiced her worries.

"Stand down, I'll think about it." Xu Cairen glanced at Xiao Qingzi.

Xiao Qingzi retreated as he said, and he walked to the door, a flash of sharpness flashed in his eyes.

He has served Xu Cairen for many years, so he naturally understands Xu Cairen's temperament, and he knows at a glance that Xu Cairen has a heart for the deal proposed by the queen's mother.

It was night, Xu Cairen couldn't sleep, and he still couldn't make up his mind.

Xiao Qingzi seemed to know that she hadn't slept, so she pushed the door in and brought a bowl of soothing soup: "The little master can drink this bowl of soothing soup and get a good night's sleep." ”

Xu Cairen smiled at him and took the soup bowl: "It's good that you have accompanied me all these years." ”

She was about to drink the soothing soup, when Xiao Qingzi suddenly asked, "Has the little master thought about it?" ”
