Chapter 20 What's the matter
This is the imperial palace, although the palace is filled with our own people, we still have to guard against the walls that have ears.

But Qin obviously didn't care about that, Zhao Jing glanced at Li, and she didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with what her mother-in-law said.

For Xie's family, Zhao Jing knew Zhongyong Hou Xie Huaian and his sons better, but he didn't know Mrs. Hou Qin and her daughters-in-law.

After all, he is the emperor, so it is enough to know the courtiers. There is no need to know the family members of the courtiers. Even if he knows something, at most he knows his background.

Even if he becomes Xie Zhao, but Zhao Jing is not Xie Zhao, he has no way of knowing how brave Madam Hou Qin was back then.

If Xie Zhao was willing to go to the battlefield in the past, he clearly followed the Qin family.

Back then, when the Qin family was not out of the cabinet, they secretly went out with the army, and it was because of this that they met Xie Huai'an.

"Zhao Zhao is much quieter now that she is a queen." Qin Shi and Li Shi talked a lot, and Zhao Jing didn't know how to answer for a while.

Seeing him like this, Li Shi laughed and teased, she picked up the chopsticks and handed them to Zhao Jing, "Taste it quickly and see which one do you like better?"

Li Shi looked expectant, Zhao Jing took the chopsticks, and Qin Shi also sat down and talked to him with a smile.

"When you went out, your third sister-in-law made a bet with your elder sister-in-law. You must like her better. If she loses, she has to pay your elder sister-in-law's rouge money for a year, and vice versa."

Holding the chopsticks, Zhao Jing looked at Qin's family, and then at Li's family. He always knew that Xie Zhao was born in the Marquis Mansion, she was the youngest daughter in the family, and she was also the most favored one.

Whether it is her parents or brother and sister-in-law, they all love and spoil her very much.

He had thought about what kind of atmosphere the Hou Mansion would be like, but obviously, the relationship between Xie's family was much better than he had imagined.

It seems that the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law does not exist in Xie's family.

A girl raised by such a family...

He thought of the previous life, Xie Zhao's appearance when he first entered the palace, and thought of the present.

This deep palace really changed her a lot.

"Zhao Zhao, what's the matter with you?" Qin's voice came with concern, Zhao Jing came back to his senses, shook his head at her, and took a bite of food.

This dish was made by Qin herself, and it was also Xie Zhao's favorite when he was at home.

After just one bite, people couldn't stop. If Mrs. Li hadn't asked him to try other dishes, Zhao Jing might have eaten up this small dish.

"How is it? Is it delicious, or is the elder sister-in-law better?" Seeing that there was nothing left on the plate, Mrs. Li looked hopeful.

Looking at the plate on the table, Zhao Jing suddenly thought of the promise he made with Xie Zhao last night, and his expression became a little stiff.

"It's okay, just to put it bluntly, even if I lose to my sister-in-law, there is nothing shameful, isn't it just a year's rouge money?"

Seeing that Zhao Jing didn't speak, Li thought he was embarrassed to answer, but Zhao Jing shook his head.

"It's all delicious. If you have to tell me, my mother's cooking is even better." He couldn't explain to Xie Zhao that the food Mrs. Hou brought, no matter which one, was better than Shangshanfang's craftsmanship. .

I want to come, because the masters who make these foods pour their love for their families into them.

Seeing that they were almost finished eating, Qin Shi and Li Shi took Zhao Jing aside to talk, and someone else cleaned up everything on the table.

"I knew earlier that the Empress Dowager originally wanted Shen Chongyuan to be her daughter-in-law, but the Emperor ordered you to be chosen. Now that you have been in the palace for a while, has the Empress Dowager ever made things difficult for you?"

Sitting next to Zhao Jing, Qin took his hand. She thought it was her youngest daughter Xie Zhao, but she didn't know it was actually Zhao Jing.

Since Xie's family knew that it was impossible to ask the late emperor to withdraw his order, they thought of many ways to inquire about matters related to the royal family.

This was originally a taboo, but when Xie Zhao was going to enter the palace, Xie's family forgot all those manners.

At any rate, the Xie family had a sense of propriety. Even though the late emperor had received some news at that time, he did not express anything.

Therefore, the Xie family still got some news.

"The queen mother, she..." Zhao Jing hesitated, if someone asked him before, how the queen mother treats the queen, he would be able to answer immediately.

But ever since he became Xie Zhao, even if the time was short, he still saw it.

Now Xie Zhao's mother asked herself, even if he became Xie Zhao, he would not be able to do such nonsense.

Qin Shi looked at him, and after a while, she let go of her hand and moved aside while drinking tea.

When she finished drinking the tea, she put down the teacup and smiled again, "I heard you call the queen mother the queen mother. I think the queen mother treats you well, but she thinks too much about your mother. So, my mother can rest assured." few."

"Speaking of which, right now your second sister-in-law is pregnant, and your second brother is not at home, so your elder sister-in-law is asked to stay at home."

"Your third sister-in-law and I saw you and saw that you are all right, so we are relieved. You have just entered the palace. There must be many things in this palace that need to be handled by you. Your third sister-in-law and I are leaving the palace now. If there is a chance to see you again."

Li Shi looked at her mother-in-law in surprise, but soon, she stood up with Qin Shi and saluted Zhao Jing together.

Zhao Jing was stunned for a moment, he thought Mrs. Hou and Mrs. Li could stay for lunch, but he didn't expect to leave now.

He wanted to stay, so it can be seen that Qin Shi and Li Shi really wanted to leave after saluting, and they didn't say anything when it came to their lips.

After Qin Shi and Li Shi left Fengming Palace, Zhao Jing sat down and thought about everything just now, feeling uneasy.

"Mother, didn't you agree to stay in the palace for lunch when you were at home, what?" After leaving Fengming Palace, Li Shi followed Qin Shi out of the palace.

In the palace, she didn't ask anything, until she got into the family's carriage, she opened her mouth in doubt.

After asking, she noticed that her mother-in-law had a bad complexion, "Mother, is there something wrong with you?"

Qin waved her hand, suppressing the doubts in her heart, she couldn't tell her daughter-in-law.

When she was in the palace, she sat next to Yao Nu and talked to her, but for some reason, she always felt that something was wrong.

It's as if... as if the person sitting next to her is not her daughter.

But regardless of her appearance or stature, she was clearly her daughter, and she didn't know where the weird feeling came from, which made her a little upset, so she left the palace in a hurry.

Qin Shi didn't say anything, and Li Shi also knew that she would definitely not be able to ask, so she stopped talking and only looked at her from time to time to make sure she was really okay.

-

"You left the palace without even having lunch?" After the day's lecture, Xie Zhao called Jiang Hai to him and asked about Zhao Jing's side.

After hearing Jiang Hai finish speaking, she was a little surprised.

"Go back to Jianzhang Palace." With an order, she walked towards the outside of the Wenhua Palace, Jiang Hai quickly followed and returned to Jianzhang Palace with her.

Zhao Jing knew that if Xie Zhao got the news, he would definitely come back, so he asked Xiao Yun to tell him not to call the manager over today, but to wait for Xie Zhao to come back.

"What's going on?" Entering the palace, Xie Zhao waved her hand to tell the palace people to retreat, she came to Zhao Jing and looked down at him.
