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

"Come to Linglong Palace to see me at 5 p.m. tomorrow and say that you are here just to check my pulse. Xiaoye will then go and talk to Imperial Physician Zhao." Su Minglang thought about it and decided to settle the matter as soon as possible so that she could make plans early.

"Ask Xiaoye to go back with you later. Write me some nourishing medicine prescriptions and ask Xiaoye to bring them back." Su Minglang was just about to continue giving instructions when a message came from outside the house.

When Xiao Ye went out to see, Xiao He was standing outside the door with Feng Shangfu from the Shangfu Bureau. "What's this?"

"Shangfu Feng said he came to deliver clothes to the Empress." Xiao He stepped forward and said.

Xiao Ye bowed to Feng Shangfu and said, "Master Shangfu, please wait a moment and allow me to go in and inform them."

Feng Shangfu nodded in return, and Xiao Ye turned and walked in.

"Madam, it's someone from the Fashion Bureau, here to bring you a pattern."

"Okay." Su Minglang nodded and said, "Anyway, you can come to Linglong Palace to find me at 5 p.m. tomorrow. Xiaoye will take care of the rest."

Su Minglang waved his hand to signal Qi Zhongyuan to go out first, and then said to Xiao Ye: "Ask someone to bring it in."

"Yes." Xiao Ye nodded and stepped back.

When Qi Zhongyuan went out, he met Feng Shangfu. Before Feng Shangfu had time to wonder about Qi Zhongyuan's uniform, Xiao Ye came out and said, "Master Feng, the Queen invites you in."

Feng Shangfu had no choice but to look away and nodded, then followed Xiaoye inside. Xiaohe wanted to follow in with the fabric, but was stopped by Xiaoye, "Sister Xiaohe, just give this to me."

Xiao He was stunned for a moment, then handed the thing in her hand to Xiao Ye, smiled and left reluctantly. Su Minglang was always very wary of the palace maids who came later, and they were not even allowed to get close to her. How could she report to her superiors if this continued?

Xiao Ye glanced at her, turned around and walked in, placing the sample brought by Feng Shangfu in front of Su Minglang.

"Your humble servant greets Her Majesty Zhaoyi." Feng Shangfu bowed and handed the blueprint to Xiaoye. "This is the blueprint I drew. I wonder if Her Majesty is satisfied with it?"

Su Minglang opened the blueprint and took a look. The patterns of the clothes were drawn vividly, including the clothes accessories and even the headgear bestowed by Xiao Heng. The clothes looked dignified and steady, and it was just right with the headgear. It was neither impolite nor presumptuous. The style imitated the Zhai robe that the queen had worn, but the color of the clothes was much lighter than the dark blue of the queen's, so as not to cause gossip.

Looking at the finished garment again, it was even more exquisite than in the painting. Every stitch was dense and tight, and the embroidery was also excellent. Su Minglang couldn't help but praise: "This garment was made by Lord Feng? The embroidery method is really interesting."

"It was Xiao Zhu who did it." Feng Shangfu did not take the blame. When she said this, she could not hide the pride in her eyes, as if Su Minglang was not praising Xiao Zhu, but praising her.

"Xiao Zhu?" Su Minglang seemed to think for a while and said, "Oh, I remember now. I heard that there was a young maid in the clothing bureau who was an excellent embroiderer. I went to ask her for advice, but there was no result."

"I remember seeing Lord Feng scolding her last time. How come she became his favorite disciple in just a few days?" Su Minglang joked.

"I dare not." Feng Shangfu smiled bitterly, as if he had some unresolved sorrow. "Xiao Zhu's embroidery skills are indeed good, but if you want to be an official in the Shangfu Bureau, you don't need to know how to do needlework. Maybe I should send her to the weaving department so that she can have a chance to use her skills."

"But..." Feng Shangfu paused, pursed his lips and was unwilling to say more.

Su Minglang raised her eyebrows. Her original intention was to say a few good words for Xiao Zhu in front of Feng Shangfu, and she did it for Nian'er's sake. But now it seemed that this little palace maid seemed to have some other hidden secrets. Whether this was the business of the Shangfu Bureau or not, she didn't dare to ask.

Feng Shangfu was silent for only a moment, and soon she calmed down. She thought of the man she met when she came in. He was indeed wearing the clothes of the Imperial Hospital, but they were a little different. "Are you feeling unwell, Madam? I saw an imperial physician when I came in?"

"He is not an imperial physician yet." Su Minglang shook his head and said, "It seems that he was recently recruited into the palace, but he is not a formal imperial physician yet."

"I've been feeling a bit chest tight lately, so I went to the Imperial Hospital to ask the Imperial Physician to take a look, but there was no one in the entire Imperial Hospital. There were only a few newcomers left, so I randomly called one over."

"So that's how it is. Is the Empress feeling better now?" Feng Shangfu suddenly realized that the clothes were indeed the uniform of a low-ranking imperial physician. She only remembered it after Su Minglang reminded her, but that style of clothes was not often made so she did not recognize it at first.

"It's nothing serious, it's just a weak qi. Just take care of it." Su Minglang nodded with a smile. She pointed at Xiaoye and said, "Xiaoye, go get the jade hairpin from my box. The one with the gold-threaded flower on it."

Xiaoye took the jade hairpin but did not hand it to Su Minglang. Instead, she placed it in Feng Shangfu's hands. Feng Shangfu had seen a lot of the world and knew that concubines would usually give some rewards when they were pleased. So Feng Shangfu accepted it after thanking her with a smile.

"I want to reward Xiao Zhu too." Su Minglang thought for a moment and asked Xiaoye to get a jade bracelet and ask Feng Shangfu to pass it on to her. The jade bracelet was of good quality, but it was far less valuable and gorgeous than the hairpin in Feng Shangfu's hand. Feng Shangfu thanked her on her behalf and then withdrew under the leadership of Xiaoye.

After seeing Feng Shangfu off, Su Minglang played with the ready-made garment. It was just a model but she still liked it very much. However, after wearing such clothes once, it would be unlikely for her to wear it a second time.

"Blue clothes are still too heavy. They will make people look dull when they are worn on ordinary days. They have to be colorful like the ones in the palace so that the emperor will feel comfortable." There was no one around, so Su Minglang complained wantonly, but it was just a complaint. Those colorful clothes still had to be worn.

Fortunately, she was at least favored on the surface, and did not have to dress herself up like the two peacocks raised in the imperial garden like those concubines.

In her previous life, Su Minglang also loved those gorgeous clothes and even invited painters to the palace to draw portraits for her one after another. She once took those portraits and asked Xiao Heng which one he liked. Now thinking about it, all she got was an impatient perfunctory response, which would make her happy for several days.

Everything from food, clothing, housing and transportation was done according to Xiao Heng's preferences. Even the Jade Soup that he loved most in his previous life was forced upon him because Xiao Heng liked it.

Perhaps that was why Su Minglang felt disgusted when she saw those flashy clothes in this life. Perhaps it was because of the sight that brought back memories? Seeing those clothes was like seeing the hideous and ugly face of the man who betrayed her, so much so that she never asked the kitchen to send her Jade Soup again, even though she was used to it.
