After the Divorce, I Was Spoiled By the Prince

  Chapter 1470 Birthday gift

  Qin Zhao shook his head: "There is no need to bother, I will explain to the emperor's grandmother, you can go and do your work."

  Seeing this, Zuo Zhaorong left the Hall of Mental Cultivation without further words.

  In fact, on the day when the dragon raised its head on the second day of February, Xiao Yi came outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, claiming to report something important to Xiao Ce.

  Qin Zhao heard Xiao Yi's voice, and ordered coldly: "Let King An leave."

  Seeing that Zhidong came out to chase away people, Xiao Yi pondered for a moment and said: "If it is inconvenient for the emperor to see this king, let Zhang Jixiang come out to see this king. This king has something important to say."

   Qin Zhao in the Hall of Mental Cultivation heard Xiao Yi's words, and knew that Xiao Yi was testing.

  Zhang Jixiang followed Xiao Ce to the border, so it is impossible to appear in the palace. Xiao Yi is clearly suspecting that Xiao Ce is not in the palace, maybe Xiao Ce's whereabouts have been revealed?

   Today is the second day of February. According to the itinerary, Xiao Ce may have already arrived at the border. In other words, the news that Xiao Ce is not in the palace will spread throughout the world in a short time.

   Daqi Palace will of course also receive this news.

  Since this is the case, whether Xiao Yi knows that Xiao Ce is not in the palace is not that important.

  Anyway, there was nothing wrong with Zhao Yu when he was in charge of the country, and the news that Xiao Ce was seriously ill was also false. The only trouble is Xiao Yi.

  Xiao Ce is not in the palace, Xiao Yi is likely to do something demented.

Just when Qin Zhao was thinking wildly, Xiao Yi lost his patience: "Since the emperor's brother is sick on the bed, Zhang Jixiang can't get away, let the emperor's wife come out to see the king! Otherwise, today the king can only Forcibly break into the Hall of Mental Cultivation!"

  Zhidong had no choice but to go back to the hall and report the matter to Qin Zhao.

  Qin Zhao hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to go out to meet Xiao Yi.

  Anyway, if it can be delayed for a while, it will be a while, buy some time for Xiao Ce.

  The moment Qin Zhao walked out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Xiao Yi immediately came forward to meet her, and saluted her politely: "My brother respectfully invites the emperor's sister-in-law Jin An."

   "Excuse me, I don't know why King An saw this palace?" Qin Zhao looked indifferent.

  Xiao Yi's gaze was fixed on Qin Zhao's face, as if he didn't hear Qin Zhao's question.

  Qin Zhao looked at Xiao Yi coldly, and really wanted to poach Xiao Yi's eyeballs.

   "I'm asking you something!" Qin Zhao reminded angrily.

  Xiao Yi was still looking at Qin Zhao, only to feel that she was a little more haggard than before, and also a little lighter.

   "Is the emperor's sister-in-law okay? Have you asked the imperial physician to give the emperor's sister-in-law a pulse?" Xiao Yi asked with concern.

  Qin Zhao took two steps back indiscriminately, and replied, "I'm fine, and I check the Ping An pulse every day. If Wang An has nothing else to do, he can leave."

  Xiao Yi saw Qin Zhao's nervousness, and suddenly laughed: "Your brother, let's send the emperor's wife to the Palace of Mental Cultivation. The emperor's body is not healthy, and the minister should take care of the emperor's wife instead of the emperor's brother."

   As he spoke, he was about to step forward to help Qin Zhao, but Qin Zhao hurriedly backed away and ordered to the guards: "Come on, stop King An!"

  Xiao Yi was stunned when he saw Qin Zhaobi's snake-like appearance, and the guards blocked his way, so he could only watch Qin Zhao enter the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

   I don't know how long he stood outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation before he left the palace and returned to Prince An's Mansion.

  Here Qin Zhao returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, thinking about Xiao Ce.

  I don't know if Xiao Ce is well, what is he doing now.

  It was only half a month since they separated, yet she felt like a lifetime had passed.

   Just when she was distracted, Qiu Shui entered to greet her.

   "Exemption." Qin Zhaoqiang cheered up, and later realized that there was an extra scroll in Qiushui's hand: "This is it?"

  Qiu Shui smiled brightly: "Your Majesty, you'll know when you look at it."

   Seeing this, Baozhu stepped forward to help open the scroll.

  When the scroll is fully opened, the person on the scroll also jumps onto the paper.

  Qin Zhao was stunned for a moment.

  I saw the woman in the painting with bright eyes and bright teeth, and beautiful facial features. She was lying on her side on the couch, looking like a willow, soft and boneless. Obviously innocent, but inadvertently carried a romantic meaning.

   "The empress is so beautiful." Baozhu exclaimed.

  For some reason, when she saw the empress in the painting, she felt short of breath. This should be attributed to the painter's strong painting skills, which made the beauty in the painting so attractive.

Qiu Shui explained Qin Zhao's doubts with a smile: "The emperor specially handed this to the slaves before he left the palace. He said that he could not accompany the empress to celebrate her birthday this year. This is a birthday gift for the empress. I hope that the empress can be happy every day." .”

  Qin Zhao saw Xiao Ce's seal in the lower right corner of the painting, and another line of small characters: To my wife Zhao Zhao.

  Tears quickly gathered in Qin Zhao's eyes, and it took her a while to choke up and say, "I didn't expect that the emperor's painting skills are so good, and I have made my painting come alive."

   "Of course! The emperor is all-rounder in civil and military affairs, and he just doesn't understand customs. Jixiang also said that the first portrait of the emperor in his life is your empress." Qiu Shuiyu looked proud.

  Qin Zhao burst into laughter, and she believed Qiu Shui's words.

  In the previous life, Xiao Ce never painted portraits for anyone, let alone this life.

   "Why doesn't your majesty draw a picture for himself? Then I will be able to look at the painting and think about others." Qin Zhao sighed softly.

   It was joy and melancholy again.

   After noon, Baoyu made a bowl of longevity noodles and handed it to Qin Zhao.

   "The emperor specifically asked the servants to make longevity noodles for the empress. The emperor also said that when the empress is born next year, the emperor will personally make a bowl of longevity noodles for the empress." Baoyu said with a smile.

  Qin Zhao couldn't imagine Xiao Ce making noodles in a dragon robe, it would be horrifying, she shook her head and said, "I can't imagine the emperor cooking."

  She thought that her birthday this year would be so ordinary, but she didn't want this birthday to be more meaningful than previous years.

  Because of this very meaningful birthday, the Hall of Mental Cultivation was full of joy.

   And the Da Yue clan suddenly launched an attack on Da Qi, which shocked the entire ruling and opposition parties even more.

  But this is not the most unexpected thing.

  The Da Yue Clan's sudden surprise attack should have taken the lead, but on the contrary, Da Qi Border Pass seemed to have taken precautions, and launched a counterattack at the moment the Da Yue Clan launched the war.

   This time the main general of Daqi is still Wu Zhenyu, the general of the auxiliary country, and he led the generals of Daqi to counterattack.

  The news of the border battle was delayed. Two days later, Qin Zhao still did not receive any news from Xiao Ce, nor did there even be any news that Xiao Ce appeared at the border.

   Until the fourth day of February, no one knew that Xiao Ce was not in the palace. This was different from the plan that Xiao Ce discussed with her at the beginning.

   At the same time, Xiao Yi also received a secret letter from the border.

  The letter mentioned one incident, saying that Xiao Ce appeared at the border.

  Xiao Yi frowned the moment he saw the news.

  If the content of the secret letter is true, does that mean that Xiao Ce left the capital as early as the first lunar month? The reason why no one is allowed to enter or leave the Hall of Mental Cultivation is because Xiao Ce is not in the palace.

  Would this also explain one thing, the news that the Da Yue Clan was going to attack Da Qi had already been leaked, otherwise how could Wu Zhenyu deploy the attack and defense in advance?
