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

"Master, what is the reason why the Queen suddenly called you over?"

Ever since the last time the Queen caught them having dinner in the Imperial Garden at night, Xiao Ye has been feeling uneasy, fearing that the Queen would take revenge on her later. Even though Su Minglang tried to comfort her several times by saying that the Queen was not that kind of person, it was of no avail.

"I don't know either, but it definitely has nothing to do with what you're worried about." Su Minglang smiled indifferently, "Maybe something went wrong with the blessing, so the Queen wanted to consult with me, right?"

"Anyway, I'll just follow her words when the time comes. I know nothing about these sacrificial offerings and prayers."

"If you are afraid, just ask Nanxing to go with me."

"Huh?" Nan Xing raised her head in confusion when she heard Su Minglang calling her.

Xiao Ye looked at Nan Xing's confused expression and waved his hand helplessly, "Go write your words!"

"There's nothing for me to be afraid of. Anyway, the Queen will not blame us if she really wants to." Xiao Ye sighed, "Master, why do you trust the Queen so much? You haven't met her a few times, right?"

"And last time, when it came to preventing the snowstorm, you knew His Majesty didn't care, so why did you still go and persuade the Empress to prepare early? Aren't you afraid that she will go to His Majesty and complain about you?"

"I don't trust her, I understand her." Su Minglang casually straightened his sleeves and stood up to walk out. "I know what she wants, so I dare to gamble."

"Isn't there a saying? Life is a gamble."

In her previous life, she had invested all her wealth in Xiao Heng and Xiao Chengming, and in the end, she had lost everything and even her life. God had given her a chance to turn the tables, and this time she wanted to be the biggest winner.

"We can't do that!" Xiao Ye took two quick steps and followed her, "Master, we'd better be safe. Even if we don't make any money, we can't lose money!"

"Pfft!" Su Minglang looked at her with amusement, "Is it true that no one will ever be able to make as much money as you in this life?"

"Hehe." Xiao Ye scratched his head embarrassedly.

As soon as the guards saw Su Minglang coming out, they hurried over to greet her, "Your Majesty, the sedan chair is ready, but do you want to use it now?"

"Yeah!" Su Minglang nodded and stopped teasing Xiaoye. He got on the sedan chair and the group walked towards the Queen's Palace in a mighty manner.

"Empress Zhaoyi is passing by, outsiders please keep out of the way!" The leading eunuch waved his hand to stop the sedan chair, and saw a man in brocade official robes walking towards them, followed by a eunuch leading the way.

The man bowed and saluted, then obediently stepped aside and said, "Your humble servant Li Zhao greets the Empress Zhaoyi."

Su Minglang half raised his eyes and looked at the man in brocade clothes, "Master Li, thank you for your courtesy."

"Let's go quickly, so as not to delay Lord Li's business."

"It's okay. I have been free these days. Your Majesty has granted me the privilege of walking around the palace." Li Zhao said respectfully with a smile on his face.

"Perhaps it won't be long before your Majesty and I meet again."

"Master Li, be careful with your words!" Xiao Ye frowned and stepped forward to block his view. "The queen is about to get up from the sedan chair. Please step aside for a while."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Li Zhao bowed and took two steps back.

Su Minglang also looked away and stopped talking.

"Master, how could Lord Li say such a thing!" Xiao Ye kept chattering beside Su Minglang, "He must have forgotten that he is an outsider. How could he, how could he offend you like that!"

"Okay, why are you angry with him?" Su Minglang soothed her and said, "Hasn't there been rumors about that guy's madness for a long time? Don't bother with him."

"Yes! You are right!" Xiao Ye nodded heavily as if he agreed with her. "That kind of guy is always good at using dirty tricks to attract attention."

"We should just ignore that kind of guy. We are innocent anyway!"

"Su Zhaoyi, your servant greets you!" Liu An saw Su Minglang's sedan chair from afar, stepped forward to greet them and interrupted their conversation, "Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time, please stop the sedan chair over there, and I will take you in.

"We were delayed on the road for a while, so your Majesty has to wait." Su Minglang nodded in response and waved his hand to let the sedan chair follow Liu An.

The sedan chair slowly stopped outside the palace gate. Su Minglang stood up with the help of Xiao Ye and followed Liu An into the gate of Kunning Palace.

While admiring the strange mountains and rocks in Kunning Palace, Su Minglang asked nonchalantly, "I wonder if the Queen suddenly summoned me here. Is there anything she wants to tell me?"

"I dare not speculate on my master's intention. You will know it when Zhaoyi meets the Empress." Liu An ignored her inquiries and responded in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.

Upon hearing this, Su Minglang just nodded and said nothing more.

"Are you here?" Liu An went in to report, and when he came out, he led Su Minglang in. As soon as he entered the gate, he heard the Queen's greeting: "I told you to come and walk around more often when you have nothing to do on weekdays, but I waited for you for a few days but you didn't show up. I had no choice but to ask someone to call you over."

"Is that so?" Su Minglang replied with a smile, and followed the Queen's instructions to sit down below her. "I thought I had made some mistakes, so I was trembling with fear all the way, afraid of being scolded by you."

"You really frightened me."

"I really should reprimand you!" The Queen glared at her in reproach. "I told you not to come and talk to me more often, but you just stayed in the palace."

"Yes, I know I was wrong!" Su Minglang stood up and knelt down, "As long as the queen doesn't mind my noisy behavior in the future, that's all."

"Ha! I'm really looking forward to your talking." The Queen waved her hand to signal her to sit back down quickly. "By the way, I did have some news to tell you today."

"Hmm?" Su Minglang raised her eyebrows. "Your Majesty, do you have good news to tell me?"

"I guess so!" The Queen looked at her with amusement. "Every year at this time it's almost time to prepare for the autumn hunt. The Imperial Observatory has already set the date, but this year is a little different in that His Majesty has granted permission for each family to bring their female relatives along."

"Of course, the number of people is naturally limited, but I think Lord Su will definitely bring his wife with him, so you can meet each other then."

"If you stay in the palace for ten years and live the same life every day for too long, you will get bored. It would be nice to have some time to go out and get some fresh air."

"This is indeed good news!" Su Minglang said excitedly, "Autumn hunting, it does sound interesting."

"I knew you would be happy!" When the queen saw Su Minglang's happy face, her heart was filled with satisfaction. After all, her daughter would miss her parents after leaving home.
