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

Su Minglang smiled in relief when she thought of this. She already knew what kind of person Xiao Heng was, didn't she? Then how normal could these people who followed him every day be?

"Xiao Ye, His Majesty has sent a royal physician here. He will be at my service in the future. You can take Nanxing to see him later. After all, this experienced royal physician is more accurate than those apprentices."

"Yes, I will take her to see it later."

"Yeah." Su Minglang nodded, thinking about how to get this man out without anyone noticing. Keeping a spy around is always troublesome, not to mention that she already has Xiaoqing and Xiaohe around her. Isn't that enough? They actually sent a doctor to look after her. If this person really stayed, I'm afraid that nothing he did in the future would be hidden from Xiao Heng's sight.

And this is something Su Minglang would never allow.

"The imperial physician's surname is Gu. He is considered a new noble family in the court. His father used to work in the Ministry of Rites, but he retired some time ago. His only son chose not to pursue a career in government, but to become an imperial physician in the palace." Su Minglang pondered for a moment, "His father is no longer an official, and he is left alone in the palace. I have to say that Your Majesty has made a very good choice."

Su Minglang rarely showed an expression of appreciation, but it was somewhat inappropriate.

"His Majesty rarely comes here, why doesn't he stay a little longer?" Xiao Ye was a little indignant, "I saw that His Majesty didn't sit here for long, and he just left like that?"

"You don't even know how to ask me to stay, Madam!"

"He has something on his mind, how can he still be in the mood to do that?" Su Minglang sneered, "It's better for him to leave, so that I won't be upset when I see him."

Su Minglang ignored the resentment in her words. Even if Xiao Heng had kept the matter of the palace maid a secret, Li must have been shocked. At this juncture, how could Xiao Heng abandon her for another woman?

Su Minglang knew very well that Xiao Heng's purpose in bringing the imperial physician here was simply to suspect that Su Minglang was involved in that incident. However, due to the status of the Su family and the reputation he had created in the past for favoring her, he could only give it a test.

Now that he didn't get the answer he wanted, he naturally had to go back to be with Li and his beloved child.

"It's good to go now. We can go now before the weather gets completely cold. How about we cook some soup in the yard tonight?"

"Soup pot?" Xiao Ye's eyes lit up when she heard that, and she quickly responded, "Okay, okay! I haven't eaten it for a long time."

When she was young in the Su family, Su Minglang was not as favored as the boys, nor was she as pleasing to others as her other sisters. As a result, she was often ignored and despised. As a result, she could not attend many family gatherings or banquets for foreign guests. Su Minglang took advantage of that time to set up a soup pot in the yard with several maids around her, threw everything they could find in the kitchen into it to cook, and sprinkled a little salt on it. The girls gathered together and chatted happily, forgetting all the distinctions between high and low for a moment, with only the steaming soup pot in front of them and the hearty laughter in their ears.

However, after entering the palace, there were more things to do and the rules became more complicated. Xiao Ye hadn't eaten hotpot for a long time.

"Ask the kitchen to prepare a pot of good soup in the afternoon. Now that life is better now, there is no reason to eat plain cabbage." Su Minglang was also looking forward to it. After his rebirth, he was either fighting or on the way to fight. He didn't have a moment of free time, let alone reminiscing about the good times in the past.

"But Your Majesty, we are not breaking the rules by doing this, are we?" Xiao Ye still had some concerns. After all, the harem was not like an ordinary family, and she was not sure whether it was a bad idea to do such an outrageous thing in a place where rules were above everything else.

"What are you afraid of?" Su Minglang waved his hand indifferently.

……

"Why are you hiding?" The chief eunuch Liu An shouted, "Who are you? Get out now! How dare you hide after offending the Empress?"

"Well, that... hehe..." Su Minglang walked out from behind the rockery with a sullen look on her face, smiling awkwardly, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty greets the Queen."

"Su Zhaoyi?" Before Liu An could speak, the Queen exclaimed in surprise: "What is Zhaoyi doing here in the middle of the night?"

"No, nothing..." Su Minglang looked away with an abnormal expression, "I just felt a little restless in my sleep, and thought it would be better to go out for a walk instead of tossing and turning in bed."

As Su Minglang spoke, he kicked the steaming soup pot behind the rockery with his foot, "I wonder if the queen has something to do in the Imperial Garden at this hour?"

"Am I in the way? I will leave immediately."

"It's okay." The queen waved her hand.

"Hey? Madam, do you smell anything?" Liu An shrugged his nose in confusion, "It seems to be a very fragrant smell."

Su Minglang was instantly frightened and broke out in a cold sweat, kicking the soup pot even harder.

"Wow!" The soup pot finally couldn't bear the weight and fell to the ground. The soup in the pot spilled out and the rich aroma in the air became even stronger.

"What was that?" Liu An pointed to the place where the noise had just been made and asked, "Did Su Zhaoyi hide something there?"

"Su Zhaoyi?" The queen saw that she was unable to hide her panic and her expression instantly turned cold. "Liu An, go and take a look!"

"Um, um, Your Majesty, I..." Su Minglang tried to cover it up, but the smell in the air was so strong that she realized she had no way to defend herself.

"Liu An!" The queen raised her voice. Eunuch Liu hurried over and Su Minglang tactfully stepped aside.

"Empress, is it, a soup pot?" Liu An looked at the soup pot lying on the ground in disbelief, the remaining soup inside was still steaming.

"Mother, this..."

"Su Zhaoyi, what is going on!" Knowing that it was not what she thought, the Queen breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously. She felt from the bottom of her heart that Su Minglang would not do such a thing. Now that this idea has been confirmed, she feels somewhat relieved.

Fortunately, this child she favored was not blinded by the filthiness of the harem.

"Reporting to the Queen, I thought of cooking a pot of soup with the people around me because the night was beautiful tonight. I thought that there would be no one in the Imperial Garden at this time, and even if there were patrolling guards, we would be fine as long as we hid."

"I finally found an inconspicuous place, and I didn't expect to meet you."

After Su Minglang finished speaking, he lowered his head waiting for the Queen's reprimand, but he heard a "puff" of laughter above his head. He raised his head and saw the Queen covering her mouth and laughing at him.

"I didn't expect that Su Zhaoyi would have such a refined taste?"
