Chapter 1378 Loneliness

   "I am afraid of affecting the reputation of the emperor. On the one hand, I am very happy, but on the other hand I don't want to drag the emperor down." Qin Zhao felt that he was entangled.

  Knowing that Xiao Ce is doing this for herself, it's like drinking a big bottle of honey, and her heart is so sweet.

  But she was worried that she would affect Xiao Ce's imperial career.

   "Your Majesty didn't drag the Emperor down. The Emperor and Your Majesty care about each other and will only make each other better and better." Baozhu's tone was firm.

   "Make each other better and better?" Qin Zhao repeated, the sweetness in his heart flowing freely.

   No wonder some people say that good love will make both parties better people. She didn't understand it before, but now she seems to understand it.

  The news about the construction of baths in Kunning Palace quickly spread inside and outside the palace.

  The concubines in the harem have long been dissatisfied with Qin Zhao, but no matter how much they care about it, it will not affect Qin Zhao's growing favor.

  Now no matter what Xiao Ce does for Qin Zhao, they are not surprised. After all, the Ming Garden has been built, and now it is only a small bath, which is not a big deal.

  One day Xiao Ce really no longer pleases Qin Zhao, that would be strange.

  The news about the construction of bathing pools in Kunning Palace has of course spread to the general public. There is someone like Zhao Yu in the Zhao Mansion, and Wu Xiyu also paid attention to this matter, so naturally he received the news as soon as possible.

  One day when Zhao Yu went back to the residence, Wu Xiyu pulled him and said Qin Zhao in a strange way.

Zhao Yu had no expression on his face, and patiently listened to Wu Xiyu's rebuke. Seeing that she was endless, he put down his teacup heavily: "Mr. Wu, if you dare to talk about the emperor's harem affairs again, don't blame me for not thinking about husband and wife. Feelings."

  Wu Xiyu was facing Zhao Yu's gloomy face, and her palms were suddenly sweating.

  She suddenly remembered that Zhao Yu was the male protagonist in the book, he was cruel, and it was only because she had the aura of a heroine that Zhao Yu was kind to her.

   But every time they quarreled in the book, Zhao Yu would not let her, and even went to sleep with other women to force her to bow her head.

  In reality, the relationship between her and Zhao Yu had disappeared many years ago.

  If Zhao Yu Zhao divorced her one day, that would be reasonable.

  In the past, she could still threaten Zhao Yu with the fact that Yueqing was Qin Zhao's stand-in, but now that Yueqing is dead and Zhao Yu has no weaknesses, she is not sure how she will treat her.

  Wu Xiyu subconsciously showed weakness: "Cousin, don't be angry, I just said something casually, I..."

  Zhao Yu sneered, and didn't want to listen to Wu Xiyu again: "You stay in the other garden and think about it behind closed doors for a month. If you dare to talk about the empress again in the future, I can't even predict what I will do!"

  Wu Xiyu was furious when she heard this, and shouted at Zhao Yu: "Don't think that I don't know that you are still thinking about Qin Zhao, you just can't forget her—"

  Zhao Yu suddenly turned his head to look at Wu Xiyu, with cruelty in his eyes, which made Wu Xiyu's face pale with fright.

  She took a few steps back uncontrollably, as if someone was holding her throat.

   "Cousin, I was wrong, I was wrong..." Wu Xiyu looked at Zhao Yu who was approaching her step by step, and backed away again and again.

Zhao Yu paused, the hostility on his face disappeared, and he gave an order to his servants with a gentle expression: "Madam has recently contracted a cold and needs to be well recuperated. Take good care of Madam in Qingyunxuan. Madam If your illness is not cured, you can't let Madam take half a step out of Qingyun Pavilion."

  The mother-in-law and maidservants served by Qing Yunxuan dared to disobey Zhao Yu's order, they should all agree.

  After Zhao Yu left Qingyunxuan, Wu Xiyu was driven into another garden by several wives.

   In the past, when Mr. Zhao was still the Taifu, everyone looked at Mr. Zhao's face and acted.

  Since Zhao Yu became a cabinet official, everyone in the Zhao family looked at Zhao Yu's face.

  Combined with Zhao Yu's ruthless behavior, who would dare to follow the yin and yang?

  Wu Xiyu was put under house arrest in Qingyunxuan like this, and the maid on duty in Qingyunxuan was also annoyed. I thought Wu Xiyu was the wife of a powerful minister, but who knew it was so useless.

  Wu Xiyu was imprisoned here, and Zhao Yu rested in Xiao's Yijingyuan that night.

  Recently, the Xiao family has become more and more favored by Zhao Yu, and Zhao Yu has been retained tonight. Maybe the Zhao family's distribution rights will be taken away by the Xiao family soon.

   Mrs. Xiao is a gentle and caring person. She worked hard to serve Zhao Yu that night, and she was still happy in her heart.

   Firstly, Wu Xiyu, the head mistress, was imprisoned, and secondly, she used to be a widow in the palace. Now, although she has become Zhao Yu's aunt, she has all the favors she should have.

  She had also heard rumors that Zhao Yu had an aunt who was Qin Zhao's substitute, but she didn't believe such a thing at all.

   Zhao Yu was very kind to her when he was with her, and he was also very gentle to her. How could he seem to have someone hidden in his heart?

  In fact, she is very glad that she was awarded to Zhao Yu by today's superior. With such a young, handsome and promising official, there will be great wealth waiting for her in the future.

  If the Wu family can die quietly in Qingyunxuan, will she have a chance to become Zhao Yu's successor?

  She calculated in her heart, and quietly glanced at Zhao Yu. The man next to him was so handsome, especially his thin lips, which were **** and attractive.

  She felt itchy for a moment, and kissed her again.

  Unexpectedly, Zhao Yu suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes were full of bone-biting coldness.

  Ms. Xiao had never seen such a terrifying look in Zhao Yu's eyes. She was quite frightened: "My lord..."

  Zhao Yu quickly returned to normal, Wen Sheng said to Xiao Shi: "Sleep."

  Mr. Xiao just said that she was dazzled just now, so she tucked the corner of the quilt: "I'm asleep, and my lord should also rest early."

   She yawned and soon fell asleep.

  Zhao Yu didn't feel sleepy anymore.

   After confirming that Mrs. Xiao was asleep, he got up, dressed and left Yijingyuan.

  At this time, the Zhao Mansion is very quiet, walking on the road, it seems that he is the only one left in this world.

  An unprecedented sense of loneliness welled up in my heart.

  In the past, he was an ambitious man, and he wanted to inherit the Zhao family business and become the right-hand man of the present, honoring his ancestors.

  Now he has become a cabinet minister at a young age, but he is not as happy as he expected.

  Why?

  Obviously he is at the height of the sun, and the road ahead is smooth. As long as he moves towards the established goal, the chief minister of the cabinet will be in his palm sooner or later.

  He should be ambitious, why not happy?

   Is it just because he lacks a confidant around him who can separate his emotions?

  He knows that the distance between Qin Zhao and him is getting farther and farther, he can no longer think about a woman who can never be his wife, but he can no longer let himself go.

  He needs to find a way out for himself, and he can no longer indulge himself like this...

  In the Kunning Palace, Qin Zhao made the insoles as quickly as possible, and sent them to Xiao Ce as if offering a treasure.

   "I made it myself, does the emperor think it is suitable?"
