Chapter 22 Night visit to Tai Chi Hall

Su Lijin didn't continue the chat, pretending to believe Xiao Zhaolin's words.

When we returned to the palace, it was already getting late.

In the bedroom, Su Lijin silently looked at the porcelain vase in her hand, with a look of hesitation in her eyes.

It is still necessary to know what effect this poison will have.Only then can Xiao Zhaolin be convinced that he has drugged Xiao Shengyun.

After making up his mind, Su Lijin poured out some medicine from the porcelain bottle the next day and took it to Tai Hospital.

Seeing the Queen coming in person, all the imperial physicians gathered around.

Although he is already the Imperial Physician in the palace, if he can be appreciated by the Queen and become the Queen's exclusive Imperial Physician, his status will be very different.

Su Lijin looked at the imperial physicians who surrounded her and were constantly concerned.

She remained silent, but in the end she turned her eyes to the corner, looking down at an imperial physician who was holding the medicine.

Secretly gave the servant next to him a look, and the servant understood what Su Lijin meant.

Walking to the side of the imperial doctor, he spoke.

"My lord, the empress wants to see you."

The movements of Lu Bingqian's hands stopped slightly, and his slightly puzzled eyes fell on the servant beside him.

He didn't seem to expect that the queen would find him.

Turning his head in surprise, he happened to meet Su Lijin's gaze, who actually nodded slightly at him.

Lu Bingqian quickly put down the herbs in his hands, and followed the servant to Su Lijin's side.

"My humble minister Lu Bingqian, pay my respects to the empress."

"Get up, I've been feeling unwell recently, do you have a place where I can feel my pulse?" Su Lijin asked.

"Yes, empress, please come with me." After speaking, Lu Bingqian turned around and walked ahead to lead the way.

After being seated, Lu Bingqian was asked to feel Su Li's pulse, and Su Li asked tentatively, "How long has Imperial Physician Lu been in the palace?"

"Reporting to your mother, it has been more than three years."

"But in the matter of checking the pulse of concubines in the harem on weekdays, why has this palace never seen you?"

According to the regulations, the concubines should not only let one imperial physician take the pulse, one is to treat the illnesses of the masters in the palace in time, and the other is to stabilize the harem and protect the emperor's heirs.

"The minister has been in the Tai Hospital all the time, and rarely goes out. I think the empress will not know him."

After Lu Bingqian finished speaking, he stood up and saluted again.

"Your Majesty, your pulse is fine. The discomfort may be due to excessive fatigue in recent days. It will be better after a short rest."

Looking at this Lu Bingqian's behavior, he should not belong to Xiao Zhaolin.

If Xiao Zhaolin was placed in the imperial hospital, he would definitely try his best to get the appreciation of the concubine and the emperor, so that he could know more news.

Thinking of this, Su Lijin lowered her voice.

"I've got something here, I want to show Physician Lu."

As she spoke, she took out the medicine she had wrapped and placed it in front of Lu Bingqian.

Opening the medicine bag, Lu Bingqian sniffed the medicine powder, but frowned at the next moment: "Empress Empress, this is poison that can kill people!"

"Really? If someone eats it, what symptoms will it have?"

Su Lijin casually picked up the teacup at the side and took a sip of tea calmly.

"If this medicine is taken, the person will feel angina pectoris within a few days, and finally die from the poison."

"I see……"

A look of surprise appeared in Su Lijin's eyes.

After putting away the medicine bag, she spoke to Lu Bingqian who was kneeling on the ground.

"Princess Lu, after all, you have stayed in the palace for so many years. You should be very clear about many things. You should be able to tell the difference between what should be said and what should not be said?"

Naturally, Lu Bingqian could hear this blatant threat, so he quickly lowered his head and answered without hesitation.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, today I'm just checking your pulse, I don't know anything else."

"It's so good." Slowly withdrawing his gaze from Lu Bingqian, Su Lijin got up and planned to leave.

But as soon as she turned around, she seemed to have thought of something, and said to the man kneeling on the ground behind her all the time.

"Emperor Lu's medical skills are superb, in the future, I will ask for a safe pulse for my palace every day."

Her words increased Lu Bingqian's status in the Imperial Hospital countless times.

There is no one who doesn't like to climb, and doesn't want to be a master.

After hearing Su Lijin's words, Lu Bingqian didn't know whether to be happy or cry, so he had no choice but to respond.

"Wei Chen, thank you Empress Empress!"

After leaving the Imperial Hospital, Su Lijin returned to Kunning Palace.

She silently looked at the medicine in hand, thought for a moment, and decided to visit the Tai Chi Hall at night.

When it was completely dark, Su Lijin changed into night clothes, then opened the window of the bedroom, turned over and left.

After avoiding the patrolling guards, she came directly to the side entrance of Tai Chi Palace.

During this time period, Xiao Shengyun presumably fell asleep.

Su Lijin carefully pushed open the door in front of her, and entered the hall lightly.

Holding the note that had been prepared in advance, Su Lijin came to the desk where Xiao Shengyun was dealing with the government affairs, and planned to leave after putting it away.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he put the note on the table, Su Lijin suddenly felt his shoulders sink.

Then the whole person's arms were held down, and she was forced to fall forward unexpectedly.

Realizing that Xiao Shengxue might have woken up, Su Li frowned and broke away sideways from the restraint of the man behind him.

Take two steps back to distance yourself from it.

Looking at each other, Su Lijin couldn't help feeling annoyed that he didn't check clearly whether Xiao Shengjin was really asleep or not, so he came in a hurry, he was still too reckless.

The latter, however, recognized Su Lijin's identity at a glance.

But he couldn't help wondering why she suddenly appeared.

Before the start, the attacking action had already been made, and if he stopped suddenly, he was afraid that he would not be able to find out what Jin'er wanted to do. Thinking of this, Xiao Shengyun rushed forward.

Su Lijin took two steps back again and again, then jumped up and kicked the man's shoulder.

Xiao Shengyun backed away, deliberately pretending to miss, Su Lijin saw the timing, jumped out of the window and left.

Stabilizing his figure, Xiao Shengyun looked helplessly at the figure that was gradually hiding in the darkness.

Visit Tai Chi Palace at night.

Interesting.

He fixed his gaze on the note on the table.

That's a reminder.

Said that someone wanted to poison him, but it was unsuccessful. In order to lure the mastermind behind the scenes, he hoped that he could deliberately pretend to have angina pectoris and cooperate.

So, his concubine wanted to use this trick against Xiao Zhaolin?
Thinking of this, Xiao Shengyun's face unconsciously revealed a look of relief.

In other words, this heartless queen of mine still has her own heart.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be so much trouble.

The joyful emotions, like a stone thrown into the calm lake water, instantly caused waves.
