“What about Bai Zhi? Can she detect it?” Su Chun asked.

Imperial Doctor Liang’s hands immediately stopped from moving and he suddenly looked up at the empress: “What does the empress mean? Could it be that–” His lips trembled and he couldn’t speak.

Su Chun nodded her head: “Yes, that Bai Zhi, went to the Ruyi Palace. And when she left, the Ruyi Palace closed its door. No one knows what happened inside.”

The look on Imperial Doctor Liang’s face was very ugly: “Don’t you have people in the Ruyi Palace?”

Su Chun shook her head: “All the news have been cut off. None of them can be contacted. This empress is afraid that something has happened.”

Imperial Doctor Liang opened his mouth, but couldn’t utter a word for a long time.

Su Chun asked urgently: “Look ing at you, can the poison be detected?”

Imperial Doctor Liang didn’t dare to hide things anymore. He immediately knelt on the floor and said with a trembling voice: “That girl’s origin is unknown. She has very good medical skills. Dongfang Wan is also given this kind of poison. Not only she had detected it, but also-”

“What else?”? Su Chun asked urgently.

“Also—cured it!” Imperial Doctor Liang said with a pale face. Although the empress had ordered him to do all these things, the empress was the empress after all. Even if she did something wrong, she wouldn’t have been affected if it was revealed. As for him? He’s afraid that he won’t be so lucky.

He was afraid that he won’t be able to keep his whole body by then.

The joy of being released from the palace prison disappeared at this moment and deep fear surrounded him. The bright future that the empress had promised all disappeared before his eyes and was replaced by the bottomless abyss.

Su Chun looked at Imperial Doctor Liang and slowly said: “Everything is just a guess. Concubine Shu can’t do anything. Why don’t you go to the Ruyi Palace and act according to circumstances.”

Imperial Doctor Liang shuddered at the thought of Concubine Shu’s calm and indifferent face. At this time, she wanted him to go to the Ruyi Palace? Isn’t this asking him to die?

Su Chun continued to say: “You don’t have to be afraid, Concubine Shu is a smart person. She knows that you are this empress’s person. If she wanted to harm you, it won’t be now. You can rest assured. Everything is under control of this empress.”

You can rest assured!

Listening to this, why does he felt awkward?

However, Imperial Doctor Liang had no choice but to respond.

In the Ruyi Palace

Qiu Ying was massaging Concubine Shu’s shoulders when a little eunuch came in and reported: “Niangniang, Imperial Doctor Liang is here to check your pulse.”

Meng Xuanling put down the book in her hand as her red lips slightly twitched: “He is quick. It seems that he has received the empress’s order.”

Qiu Ying asked: “See him?”

Meng Xuanling raised an eyebrow: “Yes, naturally, why not? This concubine wanted to see what tricks he has in sheep’s clothing.”

The little eunuch turned around and went out, and soon brought in Imperial Doctor Liang.

Imperial Doctor Liang was about to salute when Meng Xuanling waved her hand as usual: “No need for the ceremony!”

Imperial Doctor Liang said thank you and looked at Meng Xuanling secretly. Seeing that her expression was the same as before, his nervousness decreased a bit.

Meng Xuanling asked: “Didn’t you just check this concubine’s pulse the day before yesterday? Why did you come again today? Is my body had a problem?”

Imperial Doctor Liang busily said: “No, no, no, the concubine’s health is good. It’s just this doctor’s prescription is only for two days. Now, this doctor needs to check the result, so he came to bother the concubine again. This doctor hopes the concubine won’t blame him.”

Meng Xuanling chuckled: “So that’s how it is. Since you are here, just check this concubine’s pulse!”
