I really dare not mess with the Queen Mother

Qin Zhao was almost frightened by the woman who came in from outside the door.

In front of her is a woman who is over fifty years old. She doesn't wear makeup on her face, but she doesn't look old at all. She may be a little fatter in middle age, but she is full of flamboyance.

Qin Zhao had already guessed the identity of the woman in his mind, until the tenth princess yelled, "Mother..."

Qin Zhao completely confirmed the identity of the woman, and it turned out that this was the concubine Jin who had made friends with the former empress back then.

Back then, the former empress general was a tiger girl, and it was said that she was a strong woman who was not inferior to a man, who could ride a horse and whip, and love and hate with pleasure. Then the "sister" Concubine Jin who can get along well with her will naturally have the same temperament.

It's just that what Qin Zhao couldn't understand was, if the former empress was really a magnificent woman, would she really do such a thing as poisoning the concubine Chen, the mother of the male lead and the third prince?

Taking a ten thousand step back, even though she was the only one favored by the old emperor back then, she was still the head of the six palaces. If she wanted to punish a concubine, would she still have to resort to poisoning?

Of course, it was too late for Qin Zhao to think about it. Right now, Concubine Jin was wearing a white apron around her waist, holding a wooden tray in her hand, and on the tray were three bowls of delicious mutton noodles, two large and one small. At this time, he kicked open the inner door of the palace and glared at her.

Qin Zhao only felt that his head started to hurt from being stared at by her.

Concubine Jin looked at her for a while, then entered the room with three bowls of noodles expressionlessly, and only heard a "boom", and she put the tray heavily on the table.

Qin Zhao's little heart also jumped violently following the sound.

Concubine Jin sat down on her seat and turned away from looking at her, as if she was sulking.

The tenth princess was obviously very afraid of her resolute mother, so she glanced at Qin Zhao cautiously, her small eyes seemed to ask her what to do.

"That..." Qin Zhao thought for a while, but decided to explain first: "Auntie, this is a misunderstanding."

Concubine Jin was startled when she heard her address: "You...what did you call me?"

Qin Zhao paused, then called out again in a low voice: "Auntie."

Concubine Jin was silent for a long time, maybe she thought of something, a few tears welled up in her eyes, she turned away and wiped away the tears secretly, not wanting her to watch.

Qin Zhao knew that he was right to call "Auntie" kindly.

After all, her current identity has not been made public, so naturally she can't be called mother concubine, and she doesn't want to call her according to the old emperor's relationship.But if it is called Concubine Jin, she is born again, after all, she has carefully recalled the plot of the original text. Although there is very little description of Concubine Jin in the original text, it does say that she and the former empress had an excellent friendship back then.

Her "auntie" undoubtedly shortened the distance between the two of them in an instant, and Concubine Jin naturally took on the posture of her elders, glared at her and said, "Now your mother has already gone for a long time. Knowing that you have no one to discipline you, you have done a lot of stupid things since you came to Beijing, King Qi can't discipline you because of His Majesty's relationship, but I can discipline you, if there is any complaint, I will let it go."

Qin Zhao is naturally kind, and said sincerely: "That's natural. I haven't seen my mother since I was a child, and I miss her very much. Now that I see you, I can see the demeanor of my mother in you. I just feel that Very kind, I wish I could get closer to you."

Because of what she said, Concubine Jin was somewhat satisfied with her as a person, and she naturally exposed the "pornographic book" just now, and never mentioned it again.

Concubine Jin took down the three bowls of noodles from the wooden tray and set them up separately, saying, "Let's eat first."

Qin Zhao immediately walked over, sat down at the table opposite Concubine Jin, picked up his chopsticks and said with a smile, "Thank you, Auntie, I heard from Eunuch Liu that you got up early in the morning to cook yourself, just to make me a bowl of mutton noodles with your own hands." .”

Concubine Jin paused, and then said: "Your mother taught me this noodle personally, and every household in the Northwest can make it. I don't know if I can make one ten-thousandth of what she did back then?"

Qin Zhao squatted down in front of the big bowl and sniffed it vigorously, only to feel that the aroma of mutton mixed with the smell of chopped green onions rushed into his stomach, which made his index finger twitch instantly.

She looked at Concubine Jin and couldn't help admiring: "This is the most delicious mutton noodle I've ever eaten. You are really good at cooking."

Concubine Jin smiled: "Then eat quickly."

Qin Zhao responded, "Hey!"

Although the tenth princess didn't understand why Concubine Jin was angry just now, she only felt that her mother had a bad temper. Seeing that Concubine Jin was finally in a better mood, she sat down at the table in a well-behaved manner.

After she sat down, she picked up the chopsticks, and called out respectfully to Concubine Jin: "Mother, Xiao Ten has started eating."

Concubine Jin nodded: "Well, use it."

With Concubine Jin's permission, Princess Ten dared to move her chopsticks.

She had just taken a bite, and then peeked at Qin Zhaolai, this big brother, it seemed that he hadn't got his mother's permission before eating.

It seems that mother treats big brother better than Xiaoshi!

She figured out this relationship, and when she looked at Qin Zhao again, she couldn't help but feel a little more envy in her eyes.

Qin Zhao naturally noticed the little guy's eyes, she stopped gobbling, and tilted her head to look at the tenth princess: "What's the matter?"

The tenth princess looked at her, then at Concubine Jin who was diagonally opposite, she shook her little head and refused to make a sound.

Qin Zhao picked up the chopsticks, and put the big pieces of mutton in his own bowl into her bowl.

Seeing this, Concubine Jin smiled a little. Even though she had already inquired about what Qin Zhao did outside the palace, her impression of Qin Zhao immediately improved a lot.

Qin Zhao asked Princess Ten with a smile, "Here, is Xiao Ten satisfied now?"

The tenth princess blinked and looked at the mutton piled up like hills in her bowl, and grinned happily.

She nodded her head and said obediently, "Thank you brother."

Qin Zhao also smiled: "Good boy~"

The tenth princess's face is chubby, and she is very cute when she smiles. Qin Zhao only thinks that she likes this child very much. He is even more delicate and lovable than those child stars on TV.

But such a cute little doll, did he really die like this?

Thinking of this, Qin Zhao suddenly felt that the mutton noodles in front of him were no longer delicious.

Originally, because she got up early, she was directly pulled into the carriage in Qi Wang's mansion without even eating breakfast, but now that Concubine Jin knew that she was going to enter the palace, she went to the imperial dining room to cook in person just to give her a bowl Mutton noodles, in fact, Qin Zhao is also aware of Concubine Jin's intentions, and her words undoubtedly tell her that even if no one cares about her, Concubine Jin will not give up on her.

Facing such a pair of mother and daughter, she was naturally moved.

She couldn't bear the death of the lovely tenth princess, but she couldn't be sure how the tenth princess died. She just felt that according to the plot in the original text, the time was coming soon.

The original text only said that Emperor Yuan Qi went out hunting once, and the ten princesses accompanied him, and then it was not good. If we calculate it this way, could it be that the ten princesses happened during the hunting?

But after Emperor Yuanqi returned to the palace, he ended the matter hastily, saying that the tenth princess was suffering from a hidden disease...

Thinking of this, Qin Zhao smiled and asked Concubine Jin: "Auntie, I think our little ten is lively and straightforward, and he looks like he will live a long life."

Her words were abrupt, Concubine Jin looked up at her, and was about to speak.

Qin Zhao immediately smiled and said, "When I was young, I always had a longevity lock on my body. I used to be very weak, but since I got the longevity lock, my body is finally safe. Today I saw Xiao Shi and I like it very much. So I thought about getting my longevity lock some other day, so I can protect my little one from all kinds of diseases."

After hearing what she said, Concubine Jin smiled and said, "No need, since it's the longevity lock that has blessed you since childhood, you can keep it for yourself, Xiao Shi is a rough kid, and he hasn't suffered from any illness since he was a child. "

Qin Zhao nodded: "That's it, then when I see some interesting objects outside the palace, I will send them to the palace for Xiao Shi."

Concubine Jin smiled and said, "You child has a heart too."

Qin Zhao suppressed all the expressions in his eyes, and only smiled and said, "It should."

She tried to test a few words just now, but Concubine Jin said that the tenth princess had always been in good health and had never suffered from any illness since she was a child. If so, how did it come about that later Emperor Yuanqi said that she died of a sudden hidden illness?

Now that she has come to this book, and Concubine Jin really takes care of her as her own child, then she certainly can't let a good-looking child just disappear like this.

Regarding the death of the tenth princess, it is certain that there must be something hidden in it, and she still has to find a way to remind Concubine Jin.

After a meal, Qin Zhao burped, and Concubine Jin smiled and asked her, "Are you full?"

Qin Zhao scratched his head in embarrassment and smiled: "After eating such a big bowl, I really feel full, but it's a pity that I can't eat this kind of delicious food every day."

Concubine Jin said: "If you like it, when you move into the palace someday, you can often come to my palace to eat."

Qin Zhao laughed, thought of something and said, "According to what you and my father said, will His Majesty definitely accept me into the palace?"

Concubine Jin was taken aback: "What nonsense is this child talking about? You were born to the former empress. Even though your mother was thrown into the cold palace that day, but she did not deprive her of the title of empress, then you are the legitimate son of His Majesty."

Qin Zhao couldn't help frowning: "I'm a prince..."

"Well, even if your mother was stripped of her title that day, you are still His Majesty's son." She looked at Qin Zhao again and said, "So, you have to come to the palace no matter what, besides..."

Qin Zhao raised his eyebrows: "Huh?"

Concubine Jin continued: "Your Majesty is old now, he hasn't seen you for many years, so he naturally misses you."

Qin Zhao couldn't help sneering.

Can Emperor Yuan Qi still miss his original body?

This is almost impossible. In the heart of the old emperor, there is probably only the third prince Qin Shou, so how can he look at Uehara himself?

Concubine Jin saw that her face turned cold when she heard her words, so she naturally knew what Qin Zhao was thinking, so she persuaded: "I also know that your mother was demoted back then, and you lived a miserable life away from the palace since you were a child, and I also know your heart. I'm not reconciled, but now His Majesty's princes are all outstanding..."

Qin Zhao raised his brows: "Are you all outstanding?"

Concubine Jin pointed out: "Now that the eldest prince has just been crowned king, and the third prince has done a few beautiful errands, these two people have a very good reputation in the eyes of the ministers in the court. No, compared with the other princes, they have become a bit estranged from His Majesty after all, don't rely on your own status to do something that offends others."

Qin Zhao nodded: "Of course I know, thank you aunt for telling me this."

Concubine Jin shook her head: "You just say you know it, but how much can you remember in your heart?"

Qin Zhao smiled and said, "Although I have a father-son blood relationship with His Majesty, I have never seen him since I was a child. How much of a father-son relationship is really unpredictable."

Concubine Jin was taken aback when she heard her words, and looked at her with some surprise in her eyes: "Since you know this, you did the thing of smashing the third prince in the street to present to His Majesty's birthday, why?"

Qin Zhao took a deep breath: "Because... I don't want to enter the palace as a prince."

Concubine Jin asked her: "Why?"

Qin Zhao paused, and Fang said, "Because I fell in love with a girl."
