At that time, her parents and family members were all in danger, and only Xiao Zhao herself survived miraculously.

Dai Qisi thought the little girl was adorable, so she kindly adopted her and has lived with her until now.

I have never mentioned her background to Xiao Zhao, and the little girl still believes that I am her biological mother.

“No… Mom, please don’t talk nonsense… It will be bad if the young master hears it!”

Xiao Zhao looked towards the hot spring with a guilty conscience, stretched out her slender hand and placed it on her lips, signaling her mother to speak in a low voice so that Jiang Che would not hear her.

Xiao Zhao is still a shy girl by nature.

Although she had a great affection for Jiang Che in her heart, the little girl never revealed even a little bit of it.

If Jiang Che heard these words, she didn’t know how she would face her master in the future.

“If you like someone, say it out loud. Don’t wait until later to regret it.”

“The young master dotes on you very much. I can see that he must be interested in you.”

Daiqisi kept persuading and persuading him.

If Xiao Zhao and Jiang Che could really accomplish something good, then she would have no regrets in her life.

The only two people she cares about in this world now are Xiao Zhao and Yin Li, and Xiao Zhao is particularly important in her heart.

Xiao Zhao is truly lucky to be able to commit herself to Jiang Che.

As for whether there is anything wrong with the sisters Xiao Zhao and Yin Li sharing the same husband?

Daiqisi is not a pedantic person, and she doesn’t think there is anything wrong with this.

After all, Jiang Che’s status and position are there. Not to mention Xiao Zhao, even princesses from other countries would probably be vying to become his concubine.

If she were ten or eight years younger, she would have taken the initiative long ago!

“Mother, how did you and father meet? Was it you who confessed your love to your father?”

Xiao Zhao raised his eyes to look at Daiqisi, tilted his little head, and suddenly asked a question out of the blue.

Although she had never met her father, Daiqisi had told her some things about Han Qianye before.

Xiao Zhao didn’t know much, and Daiqisi was rarely willing to mention these things to her.

She just knew that she had such a father.

“Why do you ask?”

Hearing Xiao Zhao’s question, Dai Qi Si’s expression suddenly became a little subtle.

568: Silly and innocent Xiao Zhao

“What’s wrong, mother? Did you mention your sad story?”

“I’m sorry, Xiao Zhao said something wrong…”

Seeing Daiqisi’s look, Xiaozhao thought he had said something wrong and apologized cautiously.

Every time she mentioned her father, her mother always had this expression on her face.

Xiao Zhao thought that it was his questions that reminded his mother of some past events that she did not want to recall, so he knew when to stop asking each time.

This time it was about confession, and she didn’t know why she suddenly asked such a question.

“You didn’t say anything wrong. Just think of it as… your father that I pursued back then!”

Daiqisi shook her head gently and touched Xiaozhao’s head with some pity.

She was alone from beginning to end and never had any romantic relationship with anyone.

The reason why she tricked Xiao Zhao into believing that her father was Han Qianye was because Han Qianye had died a long time ago. She could say whatever she wanted because there would be no evidence anyway. It was just to give Xiao Zhao some spiritual comfort.

More than a decade ago, rumors about her and Han Qianye were rife, and even everyone in the world thought that she and Han Qianye were consensual. Only she herself knew that this was not the case at all.

Han Qianye was her most crazy pursuer back then, but that was all; she never fell in love with him from the beginning to the end.

Those rumors in the underworld were also spread by Han Qianye in order to force himself to compromise.

It’s a pity that this guy didn’t live long. He died in an accident in his prime and didn’t have time to show off for a few years.

After Han Qianye’s death, even if she wanted to defend herself, no one would believe her.

In addition, Han Qianye did act as a shield, blocking many suitors for her, so Daiqisi simply took advantage of the situation and directly admitted the matter to the public.

Therefore, people in the world have always firmly believed that there must have been some unforgettable love story between her and Han Qianye.

Only she herself knew that she and Han Qianye had always been innocent.

Perhaps if Han Qianye could continue to pester her for a few more years, Daiqisi felt that she might really compromise.

Unfortunately, this guy was short-lived and died young.

By now, she no longer bothered to explain the relationship between herself and Han Qianye.

Rumors and gossip can’t cause much harm to her now.

Anyway, she has been alone from beginning to end, so she just needs to know this and there is no need to explain too much to others.

…………

“Is it the father you are chasing after, mother?”

Xiao Zhao was slightly stunned, then looked at Daiqisi with some surprise.

After such a long time, this is the first time that my mother has directly answered the question about my dead father.

In the past, whenever Daiqisi mentioned Han Qianye, she would scold her.

This uncharacteristic behavior made Xiao Zhao a little surprised, and even confused.

“That’s right, so in order to pursue your own happiness, you must seize this opportunity.”

“I believe you can do it, come on!”

Daiqisi nodded with a smile, reached out and pinched Xiaozhao’s soft, white and tender face, and encouraged him again.

·· ····Request flowers· ·········

Of course she said that on purpose.

Otherwise, if I hadn’t set an example myself, with Xiao Zhao’s shy personality, I’m afraid she would never have said those words.

“Yes, mother, don’t worry, Xiao Zhao understands…”

Xiao Zhao nodded frantically, smiling softly, with a gleam of longing in her big eyes.

With Daisy’s encouragement, she felt more confident and no longer as shy as before.

Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Daiqisi revealed a satisfied smile on her face. She took Xiaozhao’s slender hand and sat aside, and started talking about some family matters.

… … …

Sharing experiences that he believes are very useful.

“Ah…Mother, isn’t this a bit bad?”

“Isn’t this too unfair to you, sir?”

“What are you afraid of? That’s how I managed to knock your father unconscious. Otherwise, where would you be?”

Daiqisi reached out and poked Xiaozhao’s smooth white forehead and gave some bad advice.

“Okay…then I’ll find a chance to try?”

After a long ideological struggle, Xiao Zhao finally made up his mind and asked tentatively.

“It’s good that you have such a heart. It means that my teachings have not been in vain…”

Daiqisi nodded seriously and encouraged Xiaozhao again.

The corners of her pretty mouth twitched, and she took a deep breath, then she suppressed the urge to burst into laughter.

What a silly child!

What do you believe in?

You are indeed my good daughter!

569: Zhu Houzhao’s Caution Leads to Eternal Disaster

After taking Yin Li to a comfortable hot bath and soaking in a hot spring, Jiang Che returned to the bedroom carrying his limp little wife.

“Well, sir… the candle has not been blown out yet…”

…………

One night the spring breeze turned the clouds and rain.

The next day, noon.

The sun was shining brightly, and the scorching sun shone into the room through the window.

After taking a bite of the white silk little feet on his face and covering Yin Li with the quilt, Jiang Che left the room contentedly and returned to the main hall, where he bumped into Xiao Zhao head-on.

Seeing Jiang Che walk out of the room, Xiao Zhao’s eyes flashed with joy and excitement, and he quickly walked up to “167”.

She placed her snow-white hair at her waist, bowed gracefully, and then spoke slowly.

“Sir, you’re up…”

“Zhu Houzhao just sent someone to look for you, saying that he has something important to discuss with you.”

“I saw that you hadn’t gotten up yet, so I didn’t let the maids disturb you.”

It’s different in the past.

Now she is Jiang Che’s little sword servant, a person that countless people need to look up to.

Even when facing Zhu Houzhao, the Ming Emperor, the other party had to give him some courtesy.

Xiao Zhao didn’t think there was anything wrong with calling him by his name.

Since she is already Jiang Che’s little sword servant, she must of course do everything from Jiang Che’s perspective and look at the problem from Jiang Che’s point of view.

As Jiang Che’s little sword attendant, she didn’t need to be overly polite to Zhu Houzhao. She could just treat him as an equal.

Otherwise, it would unreasonably lower the status of Jiang Che, a banished immortal, as a living immortal.

“Zhu Houzhao is looking for me?”

“Did he say what it was about?”

Jiang Che was stunned, slightly surprised, and asked with interest.

“He didn’t say anything, but he hoped that you could go to the Golden Palace.”

Xiao Zhao shook her head slightly, opened her red lips and replied.

The palace maid who came to report did not tell Zhu Houzhao the purpose of inviting Jiang Che, so she naturally did not know it.

“In that case, just come with me!”

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Che gave the order directly.

He was also somewhat curious about what the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty was up to.

“Okay, sir…”

Xiao Zhao responded respectfully and followed Jiang Che out of the side hall and headed towards the Golden Palace in the distance.

………

After walking in the forbidden area of ​​the deep palace for about two quarters of an hour, Jiang Che brought Xiao Zhao directly to the Golden Throne Hall.

Without any hesitation, Jiang Che took Xiao Zhao directly into the Golden Palace.

After the eunuch’s report, Jiang Che soon saw Zhu Houzhao pacing anxiously in the hall.

“Your Majesty, I wonder why you asked the maid to inform me to come to the Golden Throne Hall?”

Seeing Zhu Houzhao so anxious, Jiang Che became more and more curious. He bowed slightly and asked directly.

He is now the guest and Zhu Houzhao is the host.

Being in the Forbidden City, of course we have to give Zhu Houzhao some face.
