It's hard to love a concubine

Chapter 360

Qian Xiyao sat back in her seat in a daze, and didn't even hear the Queen Mother's question. It wasn't until Concubine Shu reminded her that she came back to her senses and asked, "What did you just say, Empress Dowager?"

The queen mother smiled lovingly, "It seems that the old lady has been sitting with me for a long time, and she is impatient? Well, I won't stick to you anymore. You have seen this play a long time ago. It must be very boring. Let's start Go back to the garden and play, just come back later." The Empress Dowager said this with the consideration of the elders for the younger generation, and also with a slightly joking tone, which made people feel good after hearing it.

But maybe because of the previous incidents, Qian Xiyao didn't look as good as before. She always felt that there was an invisible veil on her face, and she didn't dare to be careless. She got up and said with a smile, "Look at what the empress dowager said Yes, you have been worshiping the Buddha for a long time, and you have an indescribable fairy spirit on your body. I feel very comfortable sitting next to you. Queen Mother, you are so anxious to drive me away, are you worried that I will lose the fairy spirit of the Queen Mother? Suck it away?"

The Queen Mother did not expect Qian Xiyao, who has always been docile, to be so eloquent. She was surprised in her heart, but her face remained calm, and said with a smile, "Look at your mouth, you are really eloquent, no wonder the emperor likes you so much." After finishing speaking He held her hand affectionately and said, "That's fine, old lady, I'll show you, don't be bored for a while."

Qian Xiyao and the Queen Mother were sitting together affectionately, and Concubine Shu was on the sidelines to join in the fun and say a word. From the outsiders' point of view, the two of them are very close, and they all cast scrutinizing glances at this side. Only the queen lowered her head, her face was expressionless, but there was a bit of sarcasm in her eyes.

The Queen Mother's interest remained undiminished, and she watched The Story of the West Chamber again, before leaving the show with still unfinished content.

When she got back to Lingxi Palace, Qian Xiyao was so tired that she almost collapsed on the bed, she thought to herself, if she stayed in the quagmire of the harem, she would become able to talk a little bit over time, hey.

Originally, I just wanted to have a romance with the emperor by myself, but in the end... I have to entertain the queen mother in the end, thinking about it makes her feel upset.

But what disturbed her even more was what Concubine Shu said just now. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this matter was of great importance.

How did that happen?

Just when Qian Xiyao's thoughts were racing, the nurse hugged the little prince, Qian Xiyao looked at the child's innocent and lovely face, and then felt a little more comfortable in her heart, she hugged the child tightly in her arms and thought, but Don't be true.

Qian Xiyao didn't like to guess people randomly, so she thought it would be better to find someone to find out the news, and finally called Xiang'er over and said, "Find someone to keep an eye on Qi Zhaoyi these few days."

"Niang Niang?" Xiang'er asked in surprise.

But Qian Xiyao said, "We must find a safe person, and we cannot let Qi Zhaoyi know."

Xiang'er nodded, and became worried when she turned around. This was the first time she had done such a thing, and she always felt that it was inappropriate to let anyone go. She originally wanted to ask Wanfu, but then she thought about it, can she count on him for anything?Besides, the empress asked her to do it, so she should find a way by herself. She picked a young eunuch named Li Liang from the people below, and asked him to watch over it.
