After listening, Qin Shuo glanced at the eunuch in shock. He thought to himself, how did he see through my concealment?
But then, Qin Shuo cleared his throat and said awkwardly: "I am just looking at the scenery. Why would I miss such a stingy woman like her."
He didn’t have a shred of confidence as he said this, and his heart kept shouting, I’m thinking about her, I’m madly thinking about her, I think she’s thinking too much.
Seeing that Qin Shuo did not have any intention to be angry, he smiled lightly and said: "Your Majesty, the Empress is not angry, but jealous. Since the Empress found out that you and the Imperial Concubine had been hugging each other for more than ten days, she does not feel well.
had never thought of this before. Hearing the eunuch say this, he was stunned.
He continued to persuade her. "Your majesty, the Empress only gets jealous because she loves you. In this servant’s opinion, the emperor should take the initiative to go sit at the Empress’s place. As the saying goes, husband and wife fight at the head of their beds until the end, how can a husband and wife have enmity overnight?"
Qin Shuo felt very comfortable in his heart, especially when the eunuch said "The Empress is angry because she loves you".
Suddenly, he stood up and said in all seriousness, "Since that’s the case, then I’ll go and see her."
"..." The corner of the eunuch’s mouth twitched, and he was given a fright. Just a moment ago, he had said that he did not miss the Empress. It had only been a short while, but he had already changed his mind.
Qin Shuo briskly walked toward Hu Xiao’s Bedchamber. He had walked this path many times, so even if he had to close his eyes and walk this path, he would definitely walk the right path.
Before even reaching Hu Xiao’s Bedchamber, she smelt the scent of food. Qin Shuo took a deep breath and thought to himself, what is this little joke?
Qin Shuo increased his speed, he was anxious to see what Hu Xiao was doing, he really wanted to step into the house.
The moment he entered the house, the smell of the food became even stronger, Qin Shuo took a few deep breaths greedily.
What entered her line of sight was Hu Xiao, who was throwing meat into the wok. Hearing the footsteps outside the door, she raised her eyes to look and saw that Qin Shuo’s tall figure impressively appeared in front of her.
Qin Shuo moved closer to his and was very curious about what Hu Xiao was doing.
On the other side, Minister Wen was lying on the bed, while Xue Mier was standing in front of him. Their eyes met, and sparks of anger could be seen in their eyes.
Minister Wen’s face was very pale. Ever since he fainted last time, his condition had not improved at all.
"Cousin, you can’t blame me for this. Whatever you asked me to do, I’ll do it myself." Xue Mier clenched her teeth, and said angrily. She had specially come out of the palace to see her cousin, but who knew that the moment she came to his bed, she would be scolded by him.
She came to see Minister Wen out of good intentions, wanting to discuss with him what to do next. However, Minister Wen treated her like an outsider and rejected her repeatedly.
She was a proud and arrogant person, how could she let Minister Wen point fingers at her again? She bit her lips and stared angrily at Minister Wen.
Seeing her resist, Minister Wen was angry, his pale face immediately flushed red, "You did what I told you to do? "How did you do it? I didn’t see any effect, nor did I see the emperor loathe the empress. The women’s science exam was carried out just the same. Compared to the empress, you’re nothing."
The Minister Wen was angry, but did not give Xue Mier face, and only pointed at Xue Mier in pain.
She really couldn’t compare to Hu Xiao, otherwise the emperor wouldn’t have been snatched away by Hu Xiao. But her cousin didn’t need to reveal this matter, she was the imperial concubine, how could she lose face?
Xue Mier opened her eyes wide and stared straight at Minister Wen, her face filled with anger and resentment.
"Yes, I am nothing, but as for you, you can’t compare to Hu Xiao right? The entire imperial court is under your command, but in the end, they all changed their minds, don’t you think you are a loser?"
Xue Mier said unrestrainedly. She knew how to make Minister Wen poke a sore spot, too. The two siblings were so anxious that their eyes were red.
, you dare to talk to me like this, I am your cousin. You are too disrespectful to my elders, I will report this to your father, and let your father properly discipline you. "
Although Minister Wen was angry, he could not capture her and beat his up. He could only use Xue Mier’s father to pressure her.
At the moment, Xue Mier was so angry that she couldn’t care less about whether she was a father or not. She only knew that this was not only her fault, her cousin was also guilty, and that her cousin shouldn’t blame everything on her.
On the way back to the palace, the more she thought about it, the more angry she became. She mumbled to herself, and really wanted to go back and argue with Minister Wen.
"Empress, just now, this servant passed by the empress’s palace and smelled a fragrant aroma. It smelled very good, as if I was cooking something to eat." When she was passing by the Imperial Garden, Xue Mier was called to stop by the palace maid.
She stopped and said angrily, "What does it have to do with me? Does it smell good in her yard? It has nothing to do with me."
Xue Mier said angrily, she did not care about Hu Xiao, whatever Hu Xiao wanted to do, she could not be bothered to care about him.
The palace maid looked at Xue Mier carefully and continued, "Esteemed Empress, the Emperor has gone over there too. Aren’t you going to take a look?"
She was worried for Xue Mier. The Empress’s courtyard was fragrant, and the Emperor was there too.
"What are you looking at ..." Halfway through her words, Xue Mier stopped in her tracks, "You said that the emperor is also there?"
She was not interested in Hu Xiao, but she was interested in the emperor.
Thinking of this, Xue Mier pouted. "Let’s go, follow this concubine and take a look."
She was filled with anger, all of this was caused by Hu Xiao, why was she doing this to a woman, and caused her to be scolded by her cousin!
Just as she reached the door, Xue Mier was stopped by someone.
She steeled her face and thought to herself, "These people are going against the heavens. They even dare to stop me!"
"Imperial Consort Xue, Empress has said that no one is allowed to enter without her permission." Zhi Lan was just outside the courtyard, and stopped Xue Mier.
Xue Mier was too arrogant and spoiled, who knew what she was here for, Zhi Lan didn’t dare let her in, if she came here to cause trouble and ruin the Emperor and Queen’s mood, then she would have committed a great sin.
Therefore, Zhi Lan blocked him in every way and refused to let him in. Xue Mier was already angry in her heart. Although her favors were not here, when would it ever be her turn to be stopped by a servant?
