Chapter 84: The Queen's Words
After finishing the eye contact with Qin Ce, Zhang Jiu presented the gift he had prepared to Zhao Chan.
"This is..." Zhao Chan turned to look at Zhang Jiu in the exquisite little box.
"Back to the empress, my Zhang family is in the clothing business. This is a kind of purse incense we just developed. I hope the empress will like it." Zhang Jiu replied. He actually wanted to prepare a generous gift, but the time was too long. It was too late, so I had to do it in a simple way. Women are naturally more fond of small things such as clothes and accessories, and I hope Zhao Chan will be no exception.
"You are interested." Zhao Chan picked up the purse and smelled it. It is quiet and elegant, which is what she likes. As the saying goes, courtesy is light and affection is heavy. Zhang Jiu can still think about preparing a gift for him in such a short time. , This is very commendable, Zhao Chan looked at Zhang Jiu even more pleasing to the eye. "sit down"
Zhang Jiu obediently sat beside Qin Ce.
"You said that your family is in the clothing business, is it the Zhang family that produces 'Xiangjin'? As far as I know, most of the clothing materials in the palace come from your family." Zhao Chan asked.
"Yes." Zhang Jiu nodded, "It just so happens that a batch of new products have just been produced in the shop. If the empress likes them, I can ask them to send them to you first. The styles of clothes can also be customized for you according to your requirements."
As long as the clothes are women, there is no dislike, even Zhao Chan, who is the Queen of the Great Qin Dynasty, said with a smile, "You must not go back on your word."
"It's our honor to be able to serve the empress. You can't find such a good thing even with a lantern. I'm afraid you will regret it." After a short period of adaptation, Zhang Jiu was able to deal with Zhao Chan with ease.
"You can really talk"
"I'm just telling the truth." Zhang Jiu said that he didn't deliberately compliment Zhao Chan.
"It doesn't matter whether it's the truth or lies, as long as you have the heart." Zhao Chan glanced at Qin Ce, "It's not like Ce'er, he has never said a pleasant word in front of me once when he grows up."
He only said a few nice things to her once, and he was begging her to agree with him and Zhang Jiu, almost driving her to death with anger.
"I think Hengzhi must be very respectful and loving to the empress, but he is just not good at expressing it."
Zhao Chan smiled at Qin Ce and said, "Look, I haven't passed the door yet, so I started to say good things for you."
Qin Ce looked at Zhang Jiu with a smile, "Of course I understand Xiao Jiu's intentions."
Zhang Jiu is embarrassing, he just described it in a normal way, otherwise, can it be said that Qin Ce hates Zhao Chan deeply?What is wrong with this?
But what can he say at this time?cannot.So let this beautiful misunderstanding continue.
After laughing, Zhao Chan looked at Zhang Jiu seriously, and said, "Zhang Jiu, I will call you Xiao Jiu just like Ce'er, shall I?"
"The empress can do whatever she wants" At this time, even if Zhao Chan wanted to call him a puppy, he could only agree.Zhang Jiu straightened his body and showed a serious expression. He knew that the point was coming, but judging from Zhao Chan's feeling just now, he shouldn't be too disgusted with him, and shouldn't make things difficult for him, right?
"Xiao Jiu" Zhao Chan looked straight at Zhang Jiu, "Do you know that the matter between you and Ce'er is against ethics and may be opposed by everyone?"
"I know." Zhang Jiu nodded.
"Since you know, why do you still do this?" It's enough for one Qin Ce, why are both of them on the road of short sleeves?
Zhang Jiu felt very wronged. It was not what he wanted. It was all Qin Ce's fault, okay? He was also forced to be helpless, okay?But these things can't be said, Zhang Jiu sighed, "Actually, I don't want to, but how can I decide this kind of thing?"
Zhang Jiu's reaction made Zhao Chan think of a sentence: I don't know the origin of the love, but I love it deeply.In this way, Zhang Jiu has a deep-rooted affection for Qin Ce, and Zhao Chan is very satisfied with this. How can Qin Ce be the only one who is deeply involved?That's what makes sense.
"Actually, I don't agree with you being together, especially Ce'er who said he wants to marry you." Once this happened, it would definitely cause an uproar in Daqin.
In fact, I don't mind if you separate us, Zhang Jiu said in his heart, bowing his head and keeping silent.
Looking at Zhang Jiu's reaction, Zhao Chan thought he was sad, and continued, "But Ce Er is determined not to marry you. Although I am not Ce Er's biological mother, I have always regarded him as a child since I was a child. Treat him like your own son, it’s rare to see him being so sad for someone, how can you bear him to let him be sad, and die alone, so I can only risk the possibility of being opposed by the world and agree.”
Suddenly Zhao Chan changed the subject, her eyes became sharper and she said to Zhang Jiu, "Xiao Jiu, I already understand what Ce'er wants, now I'm asking you, do you want to be with Ce'er, no matter what happens in the future?" , will not be single-minded towards him and betray him.”
What's the situation?Marriage announcement?But Zhao Chan shouldn't be a priest, right?Zhang Jiu silently thought about how he should answer at this time, am I willing?But if he is unwilling at this time, he will be assassinated by Zhao Chan, right?Zhang Jiu thought and thought and finally didn't know what to answer, so he simply nodded his head in agreement.
"I hope you will remember what I said today"
Zhang Jiu continued to bow his head and remain silent. Did he say anything today?Obviously it's Zhao Chan who will talk about it.
"Mother, you are too serious, you will scare Xiao Jiu," Qin Ce said, but he was also very sure that Zhang Jiu was not scared at the moment, and complaining in his heart was something Zhang Jiu could do.
Looking for soft eyes, he said to Qin Ce angrily, "Ce'er, are you distressed? I just want to make sure that Xiao Jiu is the same as you."
"Mother, I know very well what Xiaojiu is doing to him"
The implication is that she has more troubles?Zhao Chanmei glared at Qin Ce, did she just marry a daughter-in-law and forget her mother?Fortunately, she still worried about Qin Ce's affairs, but now, Qin Ce actually crossed the river and demolished the bridge and threw her aside, "Forget it, I'm troublesome."
"I have no such intention," Qin Ce said, he simply wanted Zhang Jiu to be more at ease.
"Then what do you mean?" Zhao Chan decided to investigate to the end.
Qin Ce looked outside, "I'm just thinking that it's almost noon, is the queen mother going to eat?"
The topic change is too rigid, isn't it?Zhang Jiu and Zhao Chan looked at the calm Qin Ce at the same time.
Zhao Chan stared again, obviously wanting her to let her go, "Xiao Jiu, what I asked you just now is what a mother wants to know, as long as you can do a good job, then I will do it anytime You have a solid backing. Well, I won’t keep you anymore, kneel down.”
Zhang Jiu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and bowed to Qin Ce to leave.
After leaving the door, Qin Ce looked at the relaxed Zhang Jiu and smiled, "Why, you are not really scared, are you?"
"Am I afraid?" Zhang Jiu disdainfully said, "I'm just a little nervous"
"Nervous? Is it because of meeting your in-laws?" Qin Ce joked.
Zhang Jiu rolled his eyes at him, "I'm nervous because I want to meet the Queen of Daqin, and she's a beauty."
"Is that really the case?" Qin Ce looked at him with a half-smile, "Xiao Jiu, let me remind you, you must be cautious in your words and deeds in the palace, and be careful not to be caught by your tail when someone hears your words."
"Don't worry about this, I'm a human without a tail, and if something happens to me, it means that you, the prince who brought me here, are incapable and can't even protect yourself." Zhang Jiu was not worried about this at all.
Qin Ce took Zhang Jiu's hand, "You can rest assured about this, I can guarantee that as long as I am here, I will never let anyone touch you."
He still has this confidence. He was still young if he didn’t protect the people he cared about before. Now, he will never let such a thing happen again. The pain of loss has already pierced his heart once. Experience it for yourself a second time!
Zhang Jiu was moved a little bit, but soon the feeling was interrupted by the growling of stomach, and the eyes became resentful, "You won't let people touch me, but you will make me starve to death, please Can you say hello to this kind of thing in the future, so that I can prepare in advance so that I won't be so passive. Fortunately, my heart is strong enough to bear it, otherwise I will be frightened by you sooner or later to have a heart attack."
The good atmosphere disappeared again, and Qin Ce couldn't figure out why Zhang Jiu would be so spoiled every time, but facing the hungry Zhang Jiu, Qin Ce still swallowed these complaints, Zhang Jiu, who was possessed by hunger, was too difficult to deal with.
"Let's go home and eat!"
