Chapter 59 Why must I be a favorite concubine?
Back in Yulan Palace, in addition to Shaoyao, the young concubine named Qingqing was also waiting for Zhao Miaomiao.
As soon as Shaoyao saw Zhao Miaomiao, she rushed over, grabbed Zhao Miaomiao's hand, and cried, "Master, you are finally back! Shaoyao has been waiting for you!"
Zhao Miaomiao felt a little guilty when she remembered that she didn't take care of Shaoyao when she escaped and left her in the palace.
So he patted Shaoyao's hand and said, "I'm sorry. Next time I run away, I'll try to take you with me."
Shaoyao was stunned: "What? You're going to run away again? Master, are you going to run away again?"
Zhao Miaomiao: "Not necessarily."
Qingqing came over with her big belly and looked at Zhao Miaomiao with tears in her eyes, "Brother, I'm glad you're back."
Zhao Miaomiao looked at Qingqing, who was small but had such a big belly, and became worried. "Oh, why are you running around in this condition? Sit down quickly."
Qingqing smiled and said, "It's okay. I'm almost due now, and the doctor told me to move around more."
Zhao Miaomiao thought that Qingqing had just become pregnant before she left, and now that she was back, she was about to give birth.
The days go by so fast.
Because it was too late, Qingqing didn't stay in Yulan Palace for long. She chatted with Zhao Miaomiao for a while and then went back.
For safety reasons, Zhao Miaomiao also asked Shaoyao to send Qingqing off.
Afterwards, he sat alone in the yard in a daze.
My previous goal was to eat well, drink well, sleep well, and live my life in idleness and waiting for death.
That may not work now.
First of all, the Queen Mother will not let me go.
And there is the Yuan family.
How should I face her?
Yuan killed people for him out of kindness, but he could not get over the hurdle in his heart.
This Yu Lan Palace seemed to be the same as before, yet it also seemed to be completely different from before.
"Oh, never mind, first of all, just stay alive!"
Zhao Miaomiao encouraged herself, "My next goal is to work hard to be a nobody and live strong!"
At three o'clock in the morning of the next day, there was no need for Shaoyao to call.
Zhao Miaomiao woke up by herself, got up, washed and dressed, and then went to the Empress Dowager's palace to pay her respects.
Zhao Miaomiao arrived early, and some of the concubines had not arrived yet.
When more and more people arrived, they saw Zhao Miaomiao and couldn't help but start talking.
"Isn't this the imperial concubine? When did she come back?"
"I heard that the imperial concubine faked her death and went to Yu State. The emperor sent General Gu to Yu State to bring her back."
"Hush, be careful. This guy is a powerful one."
"Yes, after all this trouble, being blown to death, leaving the palace, and staying in the enemy country for a while, she was able to come back safely in the end and still sit firmly on the throne of the imperial concubine. She is a tough character."
The last sentence was said by Concubine Shu.
She looked at Zhao Miaomiao, her eyes full of jealousy and calculation.
Zhao Miaomiao heard it all, but was too lazy to pay attention.
I just paid a little attention to what Concubine Shu said.
This Concubine Shu, please don’t try to harm yourself.
There are already enough people who want me dead, so please don't come and make trouble.
No. 99 detected Concubine Shu's hatred value and went online to congratulate Zhao Miaomiao. [Congratulations, host, you got it right.
Concubine Shu really wants to harm you, the kind that wants to kill you.
Zhao Miaomiao: "Oh, don't say such horrible things while smiling!"
The door to the Queen Mother's palace is open.
Nanny Xue came out, glanced at Zhao Miaomiao, and then said to the concubines, "The Queen Mother is not feeling well today, so the morning reception has been cancelled. Ladies, please go back."
All the concubines agreed, then bowed and left.
Zhao Miaomiao was also preparing to leave.
Nanny Xue called her.
"Your Highness, please wait. The Queen Mother wants to see you alone."
Zhao Miaomiao: Ah...what is meant to come will always come.
The Queen Mother prepared breakfast, just like before. When she saw Zhao Miaomiao coming, she said, "Sit down and eat. It's all your favorite."
Zhao Miaomiao didn't move.
The Queen Mother glanced at her and asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhao Miaomiao said: "It doesn't make sense."
Mainly because I'm afraid you'll poison me.
The Queen Mother laughed, "You wouldn't say that in the past."
Zhao Miaomiao also pretended to be serious and acted, saying, "I didn't know the rules before, please don't blame me, Queen Mother."
Because before, you had no reason to kill me!
Seeing that Zhao Miaomiao really didn't want to eat, the empress dowager put down her chopsticks and walked over to the soft couch and sat down.
"It's okay if you don't want to eat. Then sit down and talk to me."
Zhao Miaomiao nodded and sat down on a small stool brought by Nanny Xue.
The Queen Mother asked, "Is it fun outside the palace?"
Zhao Miaomiao shook her head, "Replying to the Queen Mother, it's not fun."
Even if it’s fun, I can’t tell you.
The Queen Mother asked again, "Where have you been?"
Zhao Miaomiao: "Your Majesty, I didn't go anywhere. I was just wandering around to avoid the pursuers."
The Queen Mother said: "Then it seems that life is very hard."
Zhao Miaomiao: "Your Majesty, I asked for this, so I can't say it was hard."
It's completely different from before.
No matter what the Queen Mother asked, Zhao Miaomiao answered flawlessly, leaving the Queen Mother with no chance to find fault with him.
The Queen Mother smiled, looked at Zhao Miaomiao and said, "This man has grown up a lot after going out. Go ahead, I have nothing to do here, you can go back."
Zhao Miaomiao stood up, saluted the empress dowager politely, and then left.
Throughout the whole process, the Queen Mother could not find any fault with it.
Shaoyao felt a little uncomfortable looking at Zhao Miaomiao who was so well-behaved.
Asked Zhao Miaomiao: "My Lady, how come you can suddenly remember so many rules?"
In the past, even if Shaoyao was by her side, reminding Zhao Miaomiao all the time, Zhao Miaomiao would just turn around and forget about it.
It’s completely different now.
Zhao Miaomiao said, "You have to remember this. If you don't remember this, you'll die."
Alas, life is long, and the most important thing is to save your life!
