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

Su Minglang fed the medicine one mouthful at a time, and Nanxing went from struggling desperately at the beginning to sleeping peacefully now.

"Is everything going to be alright?" Xiao Ye looked out the window anxiously. "How about I go to the Imperial Hospital to see if Doctor Zhao and the others have returned?"

"No need." Su Minglang shook his head as he watched Nanxing's brows gradually relax.

In her previous life, Mrs. Li suffered from unbearable abdominal pain. The imperial doctors came to examine her but only prescribed some medicine to help her to maintain the pregnancy. However, no one could endure that pain for her.

Li will still be in pain for a long time, and Xiao Heng must have ordered the imperial doctors to be on standby at all times, for fear that anything might happen to Li, and even more so, for fear that something might happen to the baby in her belly. After all, that is Xiao Heng's only child.

"No need to go. Even if you go, I'm afraid you won't be able to find anyone." Su Minglang said with certainty. No matter how long Li would be in pain, no matter how much pain she was in, as long as she could arouse Xiao Heng's heartbeat and pity, she could be in pain longer and more severely.

Su Minglang sometimes secretly admired Li. That woman always put Xiao Heng first and would sacrifice everything, even herself, for his favor.

"Master, Concubine Gu sent someone to look for you." A palace maid approached and called out from a distance while standing outside the door.

"Concubine Gu?" Su Minglang frowned, "You are coming at a really bad time!"

"Master, you should go!" Xiao Ye saw her staring at Nan Xing worriedly, and said, "I'm still here, so don't worry."

"Well, that's fine. I've been hiding in the palace for a long time under the pretext of recuperation. I have to see her even if I don't want to." Su Minglang stood up and straightened his clothes. "Besides, when Concubine Li was trying to harm me, Concubine Shu also said a few words for me."

"Forget it, just go, Xiaoye, you stay and take care of her."

"I understand, master." Xiao Ye nodded.

Su Minglang walked out of the house. When he passed by the maid who had just delivered the message, he glanced at her. It was a strange face. "Are you new here?"

"Yes, I am Nian'er, your servant. I greet the Empress Zhaoyi." Nian'er tremblingly bowed to Su Minglang, who nodded without thinking, "Come with me."

"Your servant, your servant?" Nian'er was a little flattered. When she realized what was happening, Su Minglang had already gone far away. She hurriedly trotted to catch up, "Yes, Madam. Thank you very much, Madam."

The person who came to deliver the message from Jingyang Palace had been waiting outside the door. The sedan chair granted by His Majesty was parked nearby. Su Minglang walked onto the sedan chair without any hesitation and let the people from Jingyang Palace follow behind it.

"Let's go!" Su Minglang gave an order, and the eunuchs in charge of carrying the sedan chair lifted it up steadily. Su Minglang leaned against the sedan chair with no strength left, and asked weakly, "Eunuch, I wonder if the Concubine Shu has any instructions for me?"

The young eunuch sent by Jingyang Palace was a stranger to Su Minglang. He bowed slightly and said, "I dare not guess the master's intentions. You will know when the Concubine Zhaoyi arrives."

Seeing that he was unwilling to say more, Su Minglang decided not to bore herself and simply closed her eyes and took a nap for a while. She was still drunk from yesterday and was sobered up by Nanxing's action. Now that she relaxed, she felt sleepy and soon her eyelids were drooping and her mind was daydreaming.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?" Nian'er gently pushed Su Minglang, "Your Majesty, we're here."

"Hmm?" Su Minglang opened his eyes blankly, not knowing when he had fallen asleep. Now he was already in front of the gate of Jingyang Palace, so he had to force himself to stand up.

"Please lead the way, eunuch." Su Minglang said politely. The eunuch smiled apologetically and said, "I dare not. Please come this way, Madam."

Led by the eunuch, Su Minglang walked all the way to the main hall. It was his second time to come to Jingyang Palace. The scenery here seemed to have not changed much, except that one or two flowers could be seen occasionally before, but now they had already withered.

"If I hadn't called you, wouldn't you have come to my place?" As soon as Su Minglang walked into the room, she heard Concubine Li's unpleasant question.

"I was in a hurry." Su Minglang smiled apologetically, "I have been feeling groggy these past few days, so I was unable to hurry up and thank the queen."

"Thanks to your majesty for speaking up for me that day, I will always remember this kindness in my heart."

"Forget it, forget it! I know you are not in good health. I will not bother with you as I have just recovered from a serious illness!" Concubine Gu Shu waved her hand. "By the way, my people saw you appear in the Imperial Hospital today. Are you sick again?"

Concubine Gu Shu asked with concern, "If you are not feeling well, ask the imperial physician to see you. Why did you go to the Imperial Hospital by yourself?"

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty." Su Minglang bowed, "But it's not me who is sick. It's a maid in my palace who caught a cold. I sent someone to look for the imperial physician, but he didn't come back for a long time, so I went to see him."

"But I didn't expect that all the doctors in the Imperial Hospital were sent out!"

"You are kind to your own maid." Concubine Gu curled her lips in disdain, but did not accuse her of being dissatisfied with her status.

"I have been feeling a little uncomfortable these past few days. I wanted to find a doctor today, but there was no one in the hospital today. I am also confused!"

"But..." Concubine Gu looked at Su Minglang, seeming to be hesitant to speak.

Su Minglang was well prepared. She knew that Concubine Gu's sudden call for her was definitely not just out of concern for her health.

"Although the people I sent out didn't find out what happened to His Majesty, they did find out what the medicinal materials that were being shipped out of the Imperial Hospital like water were used for today!"

"I don't know who actually hid such a huge thing!" Concubine Gu's eyes suddenly became sharp, as if she remembered something.

"Your Majesty, what exactly is in there?" Su Minglang admitted that his curiosity was indeed aroused by Concubine Gu Shufei.

"Humph!" Concubine Gu sneered first, then slowly said, "It's a pregnancy-preserving medicine!"

"What?" Although the answer was shocking, it did not surprise Su Minglang, so she was not really confused or surprised. However, she could not show her certainty in front of Concubine Gu Shufei. Her previous questions really annoyed him.

"Could it be that His Majesty is going to have a child?"

"Offspring?" Concubine Gu Shu's expression gradually became sinister. "Who knows if it can grow into an offspring?"

Su Minglang was slightly frightened by the malice in her eyes. At the same time, he quickly realized that he might be able to use Concubine Gu Shufei to completely get rid of the child. This might not be a bad thing, a very good thing!
