I was given the contraceptive soup and became the emperor's white moonlight

"Why should you be afraid of him?" Xiao Ye was puzzled. "Even if you have met him in private, it will not do him any good if this matter is exposed!"

"I'm not afraid of him." Su Minglang stood up and let Xiaoye change his clothes. "Besides, rather than saying that I agreed to his conditions because I was afraid of him, it would be better to say that I agreed because I was grateful to him."

"What's more, I am deep in the harem and know very little about the affairs of the previous dynasty, and Li Zhao is Xiao Heng's right-hand man. Befriending such a person can make up for my shortcoming of having no one in the previous dynasty."

"You have to know that the former dynasty and the harem have never been separated from each other."

"I understand, but you still want the Su family."

"The Su family?" Su Minglang raised his eyebrows and smiled disdainfully, "I don't dare to count on them."

"But they are counting on you, Madam." Xiao Ye asked in confusion, "You are now the Zhaoyi, and you are deeply favored by His Majesty. The Su family is rushing to get close to you. It would be a waste if you don't use them!"

"There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world." Su Minglang shook his head. "If I want to use the Su family, I must promise them some benefits."

"But I don't want him to get even a little benefit!"

In her previous life, she had been expecting the Su family to redress her grievances, but she didn't expect that the first people to betray her would be her own family. Even though she had turned into a wronged soul at that time, the excruciating pain still raged in her bones every day.

"You..." Xiao Ye opened his mouth to persuade her, but he also knew the life Su Minglang had lived in the Su family since he was a child. He opened his mouth again and again but didn't know how to speak for a long time.

"We are going to Hanya Pavilion today." Su Minglang said after breakfast.

Xiao Ye didn't react to what she said for a while, and Su Minglang added: "It's the abandoned palace."

"Okay." Xiao Ye nodded and didn't ask her why she was going. "You have to go in the middle of the night again? You haven't been able to sleep well for several days."

"Your body won't be able to bear it if you keep doing this."

"No need to go in the middle of the night, we can go after breakfast." Su Minglang shook his head and calmly put down his chopsticks, "Go and ask the kitchen to prepare some food to bring with you."

"Yes." Xiao Ye nodded and ordered someone to remove the food from the table.

"Bring another jar of wine."

"No!" Xiao Ye refused without saying a word, "You know your own alcohol tolerance. It's not easy to drink in your own bedroom, let alone outside?"

"It's not for drinking." Su Minglang held his forehead helplessly. Although Xiao Ye was nice to him, he was sometimes too sensitive.

"I just want to pay respect to my ancestors. After all, that place has been abandoned for a long time, and I don't think anyone knows to pay tribute to them."

"You're going to pay tribute to Gaozu's first wife?" Xiao Ye frowned, his face heavy. "Do you know that the rumors there are not very good?"

"Rumors are all spread by people, and ghosts can't speak. If ghosts can speak, how can there be so many wronged souls in this world?"

"But..." Xiao Ye wanted to persuade him again, but was interrupted by Su Minglang's wave of hand.

"I have my own plans, just do it."

Su Minglang is now somewhat suspicious. Could it be that those rumors about that place were spread by Li Zhao just to prevent people from approaching easily? Is that why he can hide someone in the palace with peace of mind?

Su Minglang's sedan chair was given by Xiao Heng himself. It was the only one in the palace. In order not to attract attention, Su Minglang and her group had to go there. Fortunately, she had walked this road many times and was already familiar with it.

Nan Xing followed the two closely, even though she didn't know where they were going, but Xiao Ye said Su Minglang asked her to go with them, so she just followed them.

But as the scenery around him became increasingly desolate, with a feeling of desolation that was completely different from the imperial palace, Nan Xing couldn't help but ask, "My queen, where are we going?"

"Go pick someone up." Su Minglang said without turning his head. The gate of Han Ya Pavilion soon appeared in front of them. Su Minglang had never entered from the main gate, but entering from the side in broad daylight was really an eyesore.

Nanxing took a step forward and saw the iron chain hanging on the door. Just as he was about to speak, he saw the chain snap down. It turned out that the chain was not locked.

When she pushed open the door, she felt that she had underestimated this place. She had been mentally prepared when she saw the dilapidated door, but when she saw the desolation of the yard with her own eyes, she felt that her horizons had been broadened and her experience had been broadened.

"My lady, you...here..."

Seeing that she was so surprised that she was a little incoherent, Xiao Ye suppressed the smile on his face, patted her shoulder and pushed her into the yard, "Let's go."

Su Minglang followed the two people in and did not forget to close the door. With a heavy closing sound, the two people in front of him also stopped what they were doing, and the yard returned to silence.

Su Minglang walked in according to her only memory, but heard a burst of playful noises in the distance. She stopped Nanxing who wanted to go forward, and the three of them hid aside and watched the two people playing not far away.

She was very familiar with one of the figures. It should be the little person she met in the palace that night. The woman next to her, who was obviously a few years older than her, was a stranger she had never seen before. Judging from her attire, she should be a palace maid. She must be the Sister Zhu mentioned by the child.

Nan Xing pointed at the two people in the distance and then at herself and asked in a low voice: "My Lady, are those the two people you are talking about? How about letting me go and call them?"

"No need." Su Minglang shook her head. "You two stay here. I'll go talk to them."

Xiao Ye nodded, looking at the clear rejection in Nan Xing's eyes, and pulled her arm hard, "Master, we will guard here. If there is anything, just call me."

Nan Xing looked back in confusion, but Xiao Ye didn't even look at her. It was not until Su Minglang nodded and walked towards the two that Nan Xing asked, "Why did you let the master go alone?"

"What if those two have ulterior motives?"

"The master has his own plans." Xiao Ye said lightly. Su Minglang had never said a word to the two of them about this matter from beginning to end. Based on Xiao Ye's understanding of her, he was afraid that this matter would make the people who knew about it angry, so Su Minglang refused to say a word.

Although she did not agree with Su Minglang's decision, she also knew that she decided to face it alone for their own good, and they had no choice but to stand behind her and support her.

"Don't ask about things the master doesn't want us to know, understand, Nanxing?"

Nan Xing looked at her and then at Su Minglang, and nodded after a long while: "Got it."
