Zhang Jixiang stood stunned for a long time, seeing Xiao Ce's delay in resting, he stepped forward and reminded: "The emperor might as well rest earlier, the noble concubine is not an unreasonable person, and will be able to understand the emperor."

No matter what, Empress Dowager Guo is also the emperor's mother, and Empress Dowager Guo is terminally ill. If Nianyun leaves the Cihe Palace at this time, it will undoubtedly speed up Empress Dowager Guo's demise.

How could the emperor agree to the request of the imperial concubine at this time?

Xiao Ce finally fell asleep. He dreamed of Qin Zhao again that night. In the dream, when he went to Jinyang Palace, Qin Zhao and Xiao Yuan were already asleep.

He sat in front of her bed all night and watched Qin Zhao all night...

When he got up early the next morning, Xiao Ce was still in a trance. It was a very ordinary dream, but he felt that the heavy emotions in the dream seemed to have brought into reality, making him breathless.

He remembered that in the dream he just watched Qin Zhao's mother and son sleep, and did not do other impressive things, but his mood was very low, why is this?

He always felt that this dream was incomplete and there should be a follow-up.

When he went down to court, there was a mighty team of imperial drivers. Xiao Ce was sitting in the imperial carriage, but his eyes turned to Jinyang Palace not far away.

Although it was just a momentary movement, Zhang Jixiang saw it clearly.

Last night, the emperor and the concubine broke up again. Many times, the conflicts between the emperor and the concubine were caused by the empress dowager.

Xiao Ce did not go to the harem for two days in a row, nor did he read the signs of any concubines in the harem.

Those beautiful girls who have newly entered the palace are eagerly looking forward to one day being able to fly to the branches and become phoenixes, but even a stunning person like Yun Ran has not been able to sleep, let alone them?

On the contrary, the imperial concubine who was rumored to have fallen out of favor, although she gave birth to a little prince, was still valued by the emperor.

Although there has been no sign of the imperial concubine's concubine, but the rewards have been continuously sent to the main hall of Jinyang Palace.

As soon as Qin Zhao woke up, he heard that Zhang Jixiang came to Jinyang Palace with a lot of novel objects.

"This is the highest-quality brocade, this year's tribute. There are only eight pieces in total. Two of them were given to the Empress Dowager, and the remaining six pieces were given to the noble concubine by the emperor's servants. And these rare treasures, They are all rare treasures in the world..."

Zhang Jixiang spoke incessantly.

Qin Zhao picked up a piece of cloud brocade and took a closer look, "This fabric is really rare."

"The emperor is thinking about the empress in his heart, and naturally he will give the best reward to the empress." Zhang Jixiang smiled.

Qin Zhao looked at Zhang Jixiang and saw that Zhang Jixiang couldn't help but be silent.

"Do you have anything else to do?" She saw at a glance that Zhang Jixiang had something to say.

"Actually, the emperor just loves face, and he likes to carry it on weekdays. The servants can see that the emperor is very concerned about the empress. If the empress is free tonight, can you go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to accompany the emperor for dinner? These few days the emperor I have a poor appetite, eat very little, and I can see that it has cleared up..."

As Zhang Jixiang spoke, he carefully observed his words and expressions.

The concubine's temperament is very stubborn, and if she doesn't want to do something, no one can force it. However, the emperor's face was broken every day, and his appetite was indeed poor. There were several times when the emperor wanted to come to find the noble concubine, but he did not step into Jinyang Palace.

"Well, Ben Gong will go over at night." Qin Zhao's voice was soft.

Zhang Jixiang thought he had auditory hallucinations for a while, and looked at Qin Zhao in a daze.

"I have dinner at the Hall of Mental Cultivation in the evening, do you have anything else to do?" Qin Zhao asked again.

Zhang Jixiang was pleasantly surprised and hurriedly said: "The servant will not disturb the empress, the servant will return to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to return to his life, and the servant will retire."

He hurried back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, went to Xiao Ce and said, "The noble concubine likes those small things the emperor sent, and she also said that she will come to the Hall of Mental Cultivation tonight to accompany the emperor for dinner!"

Hearing this, Xiao Ce paused in raising his pen, and said casually, "Really?"

"Niangniang is a person who believes in promises. Since she said it, she will definitely do it." Zhang Jixiang was busy showing his hospitality: "The servant will go and explain, and let those in the pantry prepare more food that Niangniang likes to eat."

He came and went in a hurry, while Xiao Ce continued to handle government affairs, but his writing was lighter than before.

In the evening, Qin Zhao came to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

At that time, Xiao Ce had already taken his seat, and she went to Xiao Ce to salute.

Xiao Ce was about to avoid Qin Zhao's ceremony when Xiao Yuan suddenly rushed in and called him "Father Emperor".

"What did Ah Yuan do?!" Although Xiao Ce said so, he hugged the little atom.

Seeing Xiao Yuan's face that resembled his own, Xiao Ce's sharp eyebrows and eyes were dyed a little soft color.

"I miss my father." Xiao Yuan found a comfortable position on Xiao Ce's leg.

Qin Zhao felt warm when he saw the conversation between the father and son.

"The emperor hasn't seen Xiao Yuan for several days, so the concubine brought the child over to see the emperor." Qin Zhao said, providing food for Xiao Ce.

Xiao Ce remembered the scene where he and Qin Zhao parted ways a few days ago, and then looked at Qin Zhao's warm eyebrows at the moment, and felt a sudden joy in his heart.

Qin Zhao is different in the end, no wonder Zhang Jixiang admires Qin Zhao so much.

Accompanied by Qin Zhao and Xiao Yuan, Xiao Ce slept peacefully that night.

The moment he opened his eyes the next day, he saw the woman and child beside him, and he remembered that dream without cause and effect.

In the dream, he sat in front of the couch and looked at the sleeping faces of their mother and son, but his heart was particularly heavy.

Even after a few days passed, he could still feel the depressed mood at that time.

When Qin Zhao woke up, he saw Xiao Ce sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze.

She yawned and got up to serve Xiao Ce dressing: "Why is the emperor distracted so early in the morning?"

Xiao Ce looked at her sleepy appearance, and thought to herself that she was also pleasing to the eye at this time.

"I'm thinking about when I can find Ding Lian." Xiao Ce said slowly.

Qin Zhao paused for him to change his clothes. The next moment, Xiao Ce squeezed her chin, "Concubine Ai doesn't want Ding Lian to enter the palace?"

The corners of Qin Zhao's lips rose slightly: "On the contrary, the concubine hopes that the emperor can find Ding Gongzi as soon as possible, and also hopes that Ding Gongzi can help the emperor to solve his problems."

She also hoped that Xiao Ce could recall all the things in her previous life. Privately, perhaps she still wanted to know what kind of existence she was in Xiao Ce's heart in her previous life, right? Let her confused life have a final result.

In that life, he died in battle, and she couldn't figure out many things.

Will it be like what Xiao Yu said, in fact, she also has a place in Xiao Ce's heart.

This person is the man she has been with for two lifetimes, and the man she has deeply loved...

"Really?!" Xiao Ce looked at Qin Zhao with a scrutiny.

Qin Zhao laughed dumbly: "The emperor doesn't believe in his concubines."

"Because Concubine Ai is always dishonest." Xiao Ce believed it for a while: "It's still early, you can sleep with A Yuan for a while."
