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

The tea transmitted its burning heat through the teacup. Su Minglang gently pressed her fingers on the outside of the teacup, feeling a tingling pain at her fingertips. She calmly picked up the teacup, brought it to her lips and took a sip as if she didn't know it.

Qi Zhongyuan retracted the silver thread and glanced at Su Minglang. Before the queen could speak, Su Minglang took the initiative to ask, "How is it? Did Doctor Qi see the queen's condition?"

"The doctors at the Imperial Medical Bureau have been treating the patient for so many years, but they can't see any improvement at all." Su Minglang said, then picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Upon hearing this, Qi Zhongyuan lowered his head and apologized without hesitation: "Please forgive me, Queen. I am not well-trained and I am helpless." After saying this, he knelt down immediately.

The queen had never expected anything from him. Upon hearing this, she lifted her veil and waved her hand, saying, "It's okay. This problem of mine has not happened overnight. Don't worry too much."

Su Minglang stood up and apologized, then said to Nanxing, "Nanxing, send Doctor Qi back."

Nanxing bowed her head in agreement, Qi Zhongyuan bowed again and followed Nanxing away.

As the two walked along, Qi Zhongyuan gradually realized that something was wrong. This direction was not towards the Imperial Hospital, but was the way they came from.

Qi Zhongyuan knew that Su Minglang must have something to say to him when she came today, so he did not show any doubt and just followed Nanxing silently.

When they arrived at Linglong Palace, Nanxing took him to a side hall and waited for him. Then he stood aside by himself. The two of them didn't say a word along the way.

Qi Zhongyuan looked at the strange girl in front of him and thought that she must be Su Zhaoyi's confidant, but he had never seen her that day.

Since this was the first time they met, Qi Zhongyuan couldn't help but feel a little curious. However, when he looked at Nanxing who was standing steadily beside him, he saw that he didn't show the slightest curiosity.

There are two palace maids around Su Minglang, and these are just what he has seen so far. Both of them are extremely calm and different from each other. He feels more and more that his benefactor is extraordinary.

Recalling their first meeting in the cave in the forest, Qi Zhongyuan became even more curious about Su Zhaoyi.

In Kunning Palace, the Queen was fiddling with her nails out of boredom. Ever since the two men left, Su Minglang had been sipping from her teacup without saying a word. The Queen wanted to see how long she would remain silent, so this scene happened.

Xiaozhu was full of doubts and didn't know what was going on at this moment. The two of them entered into a scene that was almost like a confrontation.

"How long do you plan to sit here in this palace, Su Zhaoyi?" The Queen had not slept well to begin with, and was very sleepy at this moment. She could soon not lift her eyelids, so she spoke helplessly.

Upon hearing this, Su Minglang immediately stood up and bowed slightly to the Queen, "Since Your Majesty is tired, I will not disturb you any further."

The queen was not in the mood to care about Su Minglang's strange behavior. She immediately waved her hand and asked Su Minglang to leave so that she could get some sleep.

In fact, Su Minglang did not intend to sit idle during this period of time, but she was really undecided.

On the one hand, Su Minglang couldn't wait to report everything about the Queen truthfully, on the other hand, she still had a lot of things to do. If she told the truth, the Queen would be furious and break up with Xiao Heng, and the Wen family would definitely stand on the side of the Queen. But now the Wen family was weak, and Xiao Heng was recruiting talented people. It was impossible for the Wen family to fight against Xiao Heng.

And she had no backing behind her, nor did she have military power or capable ministers at her disposal, so it was impossible for her to openly oppose Xiao Heng. By then, she was afraid that not only the Queen, but even the entire Wen family would be in danger.

Xiao Heng not only made a name for himself as an anti-traitor, but also solved his biggest worry. Su Minglang would not pass on such a good thing.

So she didn't speak for a long time, because she really had nothing to say.

Although I don't know what the Queen misunderstood, the order to expel her did give her a way out.

Next, I just have to wait and see what Qi Zhongyuan says. I just hope he won’t let me down.

Thinking of this, Su Minglang quickened his pace.

Inside Linglong Palace, Qi Zhongyuan loosened his collar. He felt that the atmosphere in the room was very depressing. He hadn't seen Nanxing move since he came back. Even if he wanted to go out for some fresh air, he couldn't ask.

Even a blind man can see that the person in front of him is wary of him, let alone a person wandering around the palace alone?

Qi Zhongyuan thought about it and decided to say something, but he was interrupted by the sound of the door opening before he could even start. He clearly saw Nanxing breathe a sigh of relief when he saw the person coming, and he had to swallow the words that were stuck in his neck.

"Doctor Qi?" As soon as Su Minglang came in, she saw Qi Zhongyuan looking as if he was about to say something but hesitated, so she asked, "What's wrong?"

"I'm fine." Qi Zhongyuan replied after bowing his head.

"Xiao Ye!" Su Minglang gave an order. Xiao Ye nodded and pulled Nan Xing out, closing the door tightly before leaving.

"This..." Qi Zhongyuan realized that the door of the room where he and Su Minglang were alone had been closed. The person in front of him sat down with a calm expression, while he was still standing there stupidly.

"How is the queen's condition?" Su Minglang asked what he had always wanted to know without any further ado.

When Qi Zhongyuan heard Su Minglang asking about the queen's condition, he didn't care whether he was being rude or not, and his face darkened immediately: "The queen has been poisoned."

"It's not entirely true to say it was poisoning. To be more precise, it was an overdose."

"You mean that the Queen's illness was not caused by someone's deliberate act, but was caused by long-term use of medicine?" Su Minglang frowned. This was not quite what she thought.

The first thing she did after her rebirth was to send people to check the Queen's medicine. It was true that poison was found, but now Qi Zhongyuan swore that it was just an overdose?

Could it be that Xiao Heng changed his mind?

This shouldn't be the case either.

"Tell me in detail." Su Minglang said after pondering for a long time.

"Yes." Qi Zhongyuan nodded in response, his tone becoming more serious. "The Queen's illness is very similar to drug poisoning, but I need to get the Queen's drug residue to confirm the specific situation."

"But I already have a guess in my mind."

"You can say it anyway." Su Minglang said in a deep voice: "Everything related to the Queen is under strict supervision. Even if you work in the Imperial Hospital now, you may not be able to come into contact with the Queen's medicine residue."

"As for the Queen..." Su Minglang sighed and said, "I don't want to alert the enemy too early."

"I understand." Although Qi Zhongyuan disagreed in his heart, he didn't say much.

Su Minglang heard the absent-mindedness in his tone and remained silent for a moment.
