Chapter 683
Rong Qingqing nodded, "Yes."

Seeing her serious face, Emperor Zhaojing restrained his smile, "What's the matter?"

Rong Qingqing showed hesitation, and said after a while: "Father, calm down, I've messed up the matter."

Emperor Zhaojing was even more puzzled, "What did you mess up?" After a pause, seeing her serious face, which seemed to be nervous and worried, he calmed down and added, "It doesn't matter anything."

Rong Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the words, and said in a low voice: "Miss Guo was accidentally burnt to death a few days ago, and that's how I got the news." Saying that, without waiting for Emperor Zhaojing to say anything, She knelt down suddenly, "I didn't handle this matter well, and I failed the trust of my father, so I ask my father to punish me."

When Emperor Zhaojing heard the news of Guo Li's death, he was stunned. Seeing her kneeling down, he hurriedly said, "What does this have to do with you?"

Rong Qingqing couldn't figure out what was going on in his heart for a while, but stood up obediently.

Emperor Zhaojing was silent for a while, and asked, "Why did it catch fire?"

"It is said that she got up in the middle of the night and knocked over the candlestick. When she found out, the fire was already very strong. The women who took care of her kept shouting, but they didn't hear Miss Guo's voice. They speculated that it should be Miss Guo. When turning over the candlestick, I probably fell down and fainted, so I didn't have time to run. When the fire was extinguished and everyone rushed in to save people, they were already burned out..."

Emperor Zhaojing murmured, "It's fire again..."

Rong Qingqing was taken aback for a moment, not knowing what he was feeling, but she heard him explain: "Concubine Li was also destroyed by fire back then... Today's Guo Li also ended up in the same way."

It was only then that Rong Qingqing realized that the Supreme Emperor's emotion was not because of pity for what happened to Guo Li, but because he remembered what happened to Concubine Li in the past.

"Okay, you don't have to take this matter to heart, and I don't blame you." Emperor Zhaojing said.

Rong Qingqing nodded, "Thank you, Father." After finishing speaking, seeing his face stained with melancholy, thinking that he was touched by Guo Li's death, she paused, and couldn't help asking, "Father today Is there anything you want to eat? I'll make it for you."

Emperor Zhaojing's eyes lit up when he heard the words, but he said reservedly: "Will it be too much trouble for you?"

"I don't have anything to do today, I won't." Rong Qingqing just finished speaking, and then heard Emperor Zhaojing read out a long list of dishes.

"Crystal elbow, fried pork with yuba, Kung Pao chicken, fish-flavored eggplant, braised beef, fish head with chopped pepper..."

The corners of Rong Qingqing's mouth twitched. It seemed that she was overthinking. Emperor Zhao Jing didn't care much about Guo Li's life and death. It was nothing compared to a lunch.

Fortunately, they are all home-cooked dishes, and she is quite good at them.

"No problem, the emperor will sit down first, and I will go down to prepare."

Emperor Zhaojing nodded with a smile, and finally added: "Taichen Palace also has a small kitchen, I'll let someone clean it up, you can do it here, so you don't have to run back and forth, trouble." After a pause, "Don't ask Xingxiu and you The imperial grandmother knows."

When Rong Qingqing heard this, she couldn't help laughing and crying. She really wanted to say that eating alone is not good, but she didn't say it. She nodded and went down.

Emperor Zhaojing changed from the melancholy look before him, and was very frightened.

The daughter-in-law is really filial to him, I am afraid that she will not be able to enjoy such treatment even if she is practicing.

He really wanted to show off in front of his son, but the consequence of showing off was that he might not be able to eat alone, so he only thought about it in his heart and gave up.

Here, while Rong Qingqing was living like a fish in water in the palace, Xuzhou, Xu Palace welcomed an unexpected guest.
