Wu Xirou felt helpless.

Her pride and self-esteem do not allow her to do things like petition. She is most afraid that after Xiao Ce rejects her, she will have no face to face Xiao Ce.

So every time Liuli and Fangruo asked her to take the initiative to keep Xiao Ce, she couldn't open her mouth, just because she was thin-skinned.

Especially in front of the man she loves, she can't be cheeky.

"The servant knows." Liu Li's thoughts in her heart remained unchanged.

She knew how infatuated Concubine Xian was with the emperor, and also knew that Concubine Xian could not take the initiative to compete for favor, but she was thick-skinned and could ask Zhang Jixiang for help.

As long as Concubine Xian can serve the bed smoothly, she is willing to do anything.

How did Wu Xirou know about Liu Li's plan? She thought that Liuli heard her words, and immediately felt at ease.

In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Qiushui found that Xiao Ce was distracted. Not only Qiushui discovered this, but Zhang Jixiang also discovered this detail.

"What's on the Emperor's mind?" After half an hour, Zhang Jixiang couldn't help asking when he saw that Xiao Ce was still distracted.

Qiushui on the side also raised his ears to eavesdrop, wondering what was on Xiao Ce's mind.

Xiao Ce Dan glanced at Zhang Jixiang and pursed his lips.

Zhang Jixiang woke up from the change in Xiao Ce's expression, and he did not dare to ask again, because he knew that his master was not in a good mood.

It stands to reason that after reconciling with the concubine, the emperor should be happy, why is it different from what he thinks?

"Auspicious, you bring the others back, and Qiushui can stay and wait." Xiao Ce suddenly gave an order.

Zhang Jixiang froze, feeling that something was not right. In the past, if the emperor had something to say, he would always keep him, and the others would step down, including Qiushui.

Why is it replaced by autumn water today?

He was apprehensive, but he didn't dare to ask more, and led the others to retreat outside and wait.

When there was no third party, Xiao Ce opened his mouth: "You have been going to Jinyang Palace to walk around recently, check Zhaozhao's tone, and ask her what she is looking for in particular."

Qiu Shui did not expect that Xiao Ce left her to explain this matter, she couldn't help but be a little curious: "Does the emperor want to please the concubine?"

Didn't you just reconcile with the concubine? The emperor had never done such a thing before.

"I always feel that Zhaozhao is not too happy." Xiao Ce hesitated for a moment, but still expressed his worries.

Qin Zhao is a woman with exposed emotions. She can show it clearly when she is happy, and show it on her face when she is unhappy.

The feeling that Qin Zhao has given him these days is that he is not as emotionally exposed as before, and he is not as happy as before when he is with him.

He couldn't fathom what this woman was thinking, which made him terrified.

Yes, because he couldn't guess a woman's mind, he was a little scared, which was a feeling he had never had before.

"No, the servant thinks the noble concubine is in a good mood." Qiushui was a little surprised.

Xiao Ce frowned when he heard the words: "Really?"

"Isn't it?" Qiushui asked inexplicably.

Xiao Ce thought to himself, did he really think too much? But he felt that Qin Zhao was gentler and happier when he was with him in the past. Unlike now, he looked a little mature and didn't like to talk much.

"You just do as I ordered, I don't need you to be by my side at this moment, go ahead." Xiao Ce waved his hand, indicating that Qiu Shui can leave.

Zhang Jixiang, who was standing outside, saw Qiushui coming out, and he followed two steps and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Go out for something." Qiu Shui left this sentence and walked away.

Zhang Jixiang watched Qiushui go away, but he still couldn't understand where Qiushui was going. Should he be arranged by the emperor to go out?

Now the emperor also has a secret, still with Qiushui, but he has no right to know...

That Qiu Shui left the Hall of Mental Cultivation and went to Jinyang Palace.

When Qin Zhao saw Qiushui coming, he thought there was something wrong, but who knew that Qiushui spit bitterness to her, saying that she was rejected by Zhang Jixiang, and was punished by Xiao Ce before, because she had nowhere to go, so she came to Jinyang Palace.

Qin Zhaoxin thought it was true, so he comforted Qiushui and said: "Zhang Jixiang has served the emperor for so many years, and his feelings are naturally different. What do you care about with him? Don't be stupid in the future, do your own thing, you do well, the emperor will see."

"What Niangniang said is that the servants themselves are not doing well enough. These days, the servants have nowhere to go, can you just serve Niangniang in Jinyang Palace?" Qiushui led to the topic.

Qin Zhao has no doubts about it: "Of course it is possible. If one day the emperor does not want you to serve, you can come to Jinyang Palace."

Qiu Shui's eyes widened and she smiled: "The maiden has already helped the slave maid figure out a way out, what else does the slave maid have to worry about?"

She did it easily, but she really didn't know how to find out what the imperial concubine wanted.

It can't be too obvious, otherwise it will make the imperial concubine suspicious.

Qin Zhao didn't realize Qiushui had other intentions for a while.

When Qiu Shui asked her what she liked besides Little Atom, she couldn't answer for a while.

"I have everything that Ben Gong likes, and I don't have any other special hobbies." Qin Zhao said in her heart that she longed for a life outside the palace, but she couldn't tell Qiu Shui about this.

Qiu Shui was not reconciled and asked, "There are still things that Empress likes? For example, gold, silver and jewelry."

Qin Zhao smiled: "Bengong is a noble concubine, and Bengong's mother left behind a batch of rich dowry, all kinds of jewelry."

She is not bad at all, and she has no particular hobby for jewelry.

"What else does the mother-in-law wish for?" Qiu Shui was purely curious this time.

"Of course there is a wish, that is, I hope that the little atom can grow up healthily, the great Qi can prosper in the country, and the emperor's dragon will be healthy." Qin Zhao considers himself a layman, and his wishes are of course vulgar.

Qiushui was at a loss for words.

The good wishes of the noble concubine are all related to the little highness and the emperor. What can she say?

"Niangniang will definitely get what she wants." Qiushui whispered silently.

"Hope it." Qin Zhao hugged Xiao Yuan and kissed him with a gentle look on his eyes.

After that, Qiu Shui didn't say any more. She knew that she couldn't ask anything, and the task assigned by the emperor would be difficult for her to complete.

In the evening, she returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation and reported the situation in Jinyang Palace to Xiao Ce.

Xiao Ce laughed after hearing this: "It's like something she would say."

"The servant thinks that the concubine looks quite normal, and there is nothing wrong with it. The emperor may be thinking too much." Qiu Shui expressed his feelings.

She didn't see that Qin Zhao was no different from before.

"You go and rest, and you will go to Jinyang Palace tomorrow to observe and observe." Xiao Ce pondered for a moment and made a decision.

"Slave and maid leave." Qiushui retreated according to the words.

Early the next morning, Qiushui appeared in Jinyang Palace.

Qin Zhao just got up, and Qiushui came over to serve him, jokingly said, "The slave-girl robbed the treasure and survived."
