Qin Qiong certainly didn't mind this kind of thing, but she had been doing this for so many days, and the emperor actually didn't stay with her at this time. Moreover, the emperor's siege game was not over yet, but this guy actually stopped. It seems that this guy's drug resistance is extraordinary.

At the same time, Qin Qiong somehow noticed something strange in the emperor's expression towards her after lunch. She couldn't tell what it was, it just felt weird.

In addition, the emperor suddenly went to someone else's palace today, which made Qin Qiong feel "lost".

As soon as the word "loss" appeared in her mind, Qin Qiong shuddered.

After dinner, the newly arrived palace maid brought her the dress she would wear for the sacrificial ceremony tomorrow. It was very beautiful, and the clothes were worn layer by layer, with more than ten layers from inside to outside, and there was also a headdress.

Oh my God! These things were so exquisite that she didn't even dare to touch them. Looking at them, Qin Qiong felt for the first time that being an imperial concubine was not bad.

The next day, Qin Qiong got up early and began to prepare her clothes. Today was a rare opportunity, and she wanted to feel what it meant to be an imperial concubine. She had only seen similar ceremonies in movies and TV dramas before, and she didn't even have the chance to watch them up close. Today was good, and she could participate in it in person. It was interesting just thinking about it.

After combing her hair and changing her clothes, she was just about to take the six maids assigned to her out for a walk to show off their power, when she saw Eunuch Xi walk in with a young eunuch.

The young eunuch was holding a plate with a emerald green jade bowl on it. The bowl was filled with soup, so the bottom part appeared yellowish green.

"We are here to pay our respects to Empress Qin," said Eunuch Xi, still with a smiling face.

"Today's sacrifice starts early. The emperor is afraid that you might be hungry, so he asked the imperial kitchen to make you a soup."

As he spoke, he turned around and motioned to the young eunuch behind him to hand the bowl in his hand to Qin Qiong.

Qin Qiong looked at the strange-colored juice in the jade bowl, and then looked at Eunuch Xi who was smiling and looking honest but talking nonsense.

She was stunned. What? What does that mean?

She looked at Eunuch Xi again, and then at the bowl.

"Is this soup?!" she asked Eunuch Xi.

"Yes"

"Your Tang is like this? I'm a female doctor, you can't forget it, right?" Qin Qiong was a little angry.

"Empress Qin, this is where you're wrong. It doesn't matter what kind of soup this is. What's important is that the emperor asked me to bring it to you. Do you understand?" The old eunuch still smiled.

"...What do you mean?" Qin Qiong suddenly felt his legs go weak.

"Alas, I have always thought that Empress Qin was the most open-minded and sensible Empress. How come you are confused now? This is the Emperor's trust in you. He wants you to become his own person. Who else in this palace can have this blessing? It must be you..."

"speak English!"

Qin Qiong interrupted him directly: "Just tell me, what's going on?"

"...Your Majesty, you must know your own identity, right?" The old eunuch raised his head and looked at Qin Qiong calmly.

He continued with a smile on his face: "Let's not talk about the reputation of being divorced. It's not easy to tell others that Miss Xie was once favored by the emperor..."

The anger on Qin Qiong's face gradually subsided.

When Eunuch Xi saw her like this, he said, "Originally, the medicine was used to prevent those female doctors with bad intentions. As luck would have it, you are so lucky. You didn't eat the whole medicine diet at first, and then you were liked by our emperor. Wow! This is really a blessing from heaven!"

"However, you still have to take this medicine. Don't worry, you will be fine. This is just to prevent you from having an heir. Besides... Hey! Don't worry, the antidote has been prepared. As long as you take the medicine every day, you will be fine."

Qin Qiong looked at him for a long time before he found his voice again.

"...What if," Qin Qiong lowered his voice and said, "I just don't drink it?"

Eunuch Xi glanced at her, lowered his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, this is a way for you to survive, a chance for you to stay in this palace. Our emperor cannot have anyone with ulterior motives around him, so..."

Having said that, Eunuch Xi raised his head and looked at Qin Qiong calmly.

"If you don't want to stay in this palace and be the honorable Concubine Qin, then you can only go to the cold palace to accompany the abandoned Concubine Li."

Qin Qiong also looked at him, the fingernails of his hands digging into his flesh through his sleeves.

"...Let me think about it. You put it down first. I'll drink it later," Qin Qiong said with a twitching mouth.

Eunuch Xi smiled, and he bowed and said, "How can you let your Majesty hold such a heavy object? Besides, the emperor asked me to bring you the soup, so of course I have to watch your Majesty drink it before I can leave, right? Besides..."

"I told you! Let me think about it. If you are worried, you can go out and wait for a while. I will think it over and then you can come in."

Qin Qiong was so angry that she was about to burst into tears. She tried hard to suppress her temper and didn't want it to explode at this time.

"Your Majesty, this is really not poison. It contains the blessing of helping our emperor test the medicine. What are you doing..."

The old eunuch wanted to persuade him, but when he saw the color on Qin Qiong's face...

Now Empress Qin can finally play the good cop.

This Empress Qin was different from the other empresses in the palace. He always found it incredible that this female doctor Qin would try to curry favor with a rich and powerful man.

He had been in this palace for most of his life and was confident that he was very good at judging people. As soon as he saw this female doctor Qin, he felt that she would never have any evil intentions of climbing into the emperor's bed.

But he didn't expect that she was actually moved. When he found out about the little girl from the Xie family, it was even more unimaginable. However, after staying in the palace for a long time, some things were no longer surprising.

Now, he looked at Empress Qin's appearance, thought for a moment, then waved to the young eunuch behind him, and the two of them retreated.

When he reached the door, he turned to Qin Qiong and said, "Please hurry up, Your Majesty. Today is the end-of-year sacrifice and we can't delay. If you don't drink this medicine, you... will miss the event. Didn't you say yesterday that you wanted to see the majesty of our royal family? It's getting late now. Please hurry up."

Watching them retreat out of the door, Qin Qiong waved his hand and asked all the palace men in his palace to go out and close the door. Then Qin Qiong picked up a hand-held mirror on the dressing table and threw it out fiercely.

"How stupid am I!" She cursed herself in a low voice.

She should have thought of it earlier. People have long said that the emperor has already taken control of the palace. Even though the empress dowager, who is so arrogant, wants to kill her, she also secretly lets Fu Ye help her to clean up the mess. This shows who is the boss in the palace.

But she was so stupid that she thought it was the Queen Mother who poisoned her food at this time. At this moment, the only one in the palace who could do this to her at any time and anywhere was the Emperor.

She also overestimates herself...

She thought she was very beautiful and special, so everyone would like her, pity her and treat her well.

No, she was not special at all. She thought she had controlled the emperor and made him fall in love with her...

Oh my god! Has she watched too many otaku dramas?!
