Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Su Qing’s sharp gaze swept across the surroundings. The imperial physicians were so frightened that they hurriedly lowered their heads.

“Yes, we will remember.”

“All of you can leave!”

Su Qing chased them away, and these imperial physicians ran away as if they received a special pardon.

I wonder what the Empress wants to do with Lord He’s corpse? They did not dare to ask, nor did they want to know. The less they knew about the royal family, the better.

No one knew a wife better than a husband. When Su Qing ordered the imperial physician not to go near Lord He’s room, Xiao Zeyu guessed that Su Qing had already saved Lord He’s life but didn’t want the news of his being saved to spread.

Xiao Zeyu looked at Su Qing’s solemn expression and asked,

“Qing er, what happened?”

The seemingly calm court was surging with undercurrents. He knew this very well.? ⁷

Su Qing was afraid that the walls might have ears, so she said in a low voice, “Let’s talk when we get home.”

“You guys stay here. No one is allowed to enter the place.”

Su Qing left her guards behind. She had checked these people out for a long time. She was sure that there was no problem with them. They were tight-lipped, obedient, and could take action. They could complete the tasks assigned to them flawlessly.

After returning to the palace, Su Qing chased the palace maids and eunuchs out before saying to Xiao Zeyu,

“Shuisheng, I took everyone to a restaurant for dinner today…”

Su Qing told Xiao Zeyu what she had heard in the restaurant,

“Lord He has just fallen ill, and the rumors have already spread outside. I suspect that someone in the imperial court is deliberately ruining our reputation, although I still don’t know why he is doing so. But there must be an ulterior motive. If I want to find this person, I must cooperate and put on a show.

“Qing ‘er is using moments to lure the snake out of its hole.”

Xiao Zeyu smiled as he looked at Su Qing. However, he didn’t think this person could turn the world upside down.

He had no brothers, and there was no such thing as seizing the throne. Now that he had a strong army and weapons, no neighboring country would rashly dare start a war with the Great Tang. They would only dare to play such small tricks.

Su Qing saw that Xiao Zeyu was underestimating the enemy, so she said to him earnestly,

“An ant nest destroys a thousand-mile dike. Don’t underestimate these small rumors. If you lose the people’s hearts, your foundation will be unstable.” “Qing ‘er is right. I will secretly order Zhang Jinglin to investigate.” Xiao Zeyu saw Su Qing’s severe expression and became serious as well. Zhang Jinglin was very capable and quick-witted. He would live up to everyone’s expectations.

“Alright.”

Su Qing nodded. Zhang Jinglin was indeed the most popular. Once this matter was settled, he believed that the people in the court would not have any objections about him being the Grand Tutor. The family would also be at ease using him.

“Qing ‘er, you’ve worked hard for the entire day, and you’re still worried about the matters in the court. Rest early!”

Xiao Zeyu saw that Su Qing looked tired, and his heart ached. He sent troops to help her collect the corn, and she said she wanted to keep it for herself to do slowly. Farm work was tiring and not fun. After a day of hard work in the fields, she still had to worry about the court. He felt very guilty.

Since Qing ‘er met him, she had never had a peaceful life. There were always all kinds of troubles.

“I can’t rest yet. I’ll send someone to interrogate the people who spread the rumors and wait for their reply.”

Su Qing shook her head. To avoid alerting the enemy, she had to end the battle quickly and dig them out.

“Alright, I will wait with you.”

Seeing that Su Qing was unwilling to rest, Xiao Zeyu decided to wait with her while he approved the memorial.

“Men, make some supper for the Empress.”

Other emperors would have their concubines take care of their daily lives, but Xiao Zeyu always cared for Su Qing. Worried that she would stay up late and starve, he ordered the palace maids to go to the imperial kitchen to make supper for Su Qing.

The couple waited until late at night before they heard someone reporting from outside the door,

“Empress, Guard Li has come to report.”

“Let him in.”

Su Qing had just eaten a bowl of lotus seed soup. When she heard Bodyguard Li return, she put down the spoon in her hand and ordered someone to bring him in.

Bodyguard Li hurriedly walked into Yangxin Palace Hall. The moment he entered, he knelt on the ground and cupped his fists to report to Su Qing, “Reporting to the Empress, we asked the person who ordered the rumors, but the person’s entire family was killed without leaving anyone alive.”

” His actions are fast enough. This person has eyes and hands that reach the heavens!”

Su Qing frowned. She was already fast, but the other party could still destroy the witness in time. Didn’t that mean that the other party monitored her every move?

“Yeah, I underestimated him.”

Xiao Zeyu’s expression also turned heavy. He believed in Qing ‘ er’s ability to act. Despite moving so quickly, She didn’t even make it in time. From this, one could see how deep the enemy’s spies were.

“Go to the women’s hospital and see how the pregnant woman who was sent today is doing. You are allowed to ride a horse in the Forbidden City.”

Su Qing suddenly remembered something else. This matter had also been brought up by those who had spread rumors. They were worried that the pregnant woman was in danger. In order not to delay time, they allowed Guard Li to ride a horse to the Forbidden City. Otherwise, the long road would delay everything if they walked.

“Yes.”

Bodyguard Li received the order and left. Xiao Zeyu accompanied Su Qing as they waited for the news. The entire Yangxin Palace Hall was so quiet that the sound of a pin dropping could be heard.

An hour later, Bodyguard Li returned in a hurry. His expression was not right after he entered the door. Su Qing dismissed his greeting.

“There’s no need to bow. Speak quickly.”

“Yes, Empress, that pregnant woman… She’s dead.”

Su Qing found it unbelievable when she heard that the pregnant woman had died. She had already ordered someone to give the pregnant woman some hemostatic medicine. Her condition was no longer dangerous. How could she have died at the hospital?

She frowned and asked,

“Dead? Did she die during or after the surgery?”

” Everything was normal during the operation. The mother and son were safe.

However, two hours later, the pregnant woman suddenly died. Her mother-in-law was making a scene.”

Bodyguard Li answered truthfully. He knew the Empress would ask, so he

asked the female doctor on duty in detail.

Su Qing stood up abruptly. Even as the Empress, she couldn’t save the pregnant woman’s life. This made her very angry. She slammed the table heavily.

“Check. No one is allowed to leave the women’s hospital.”

It was already the second watch of the night, and the sky would be bright after the third watch. Su Qing wanted to go to the women’s hospital immediately to have a look, but Xiao Zeyu dragged her to rest.

“She’s already dead. You can’t save her even if you go now. Take a rest. It won’t be too late to go again at dawn.”

Su Qing ordered Guard Li,

” All of you, guard the place strictly. Don’t let a single bird out of the women’s hospital.”

“Yes.”

Bodyguard Li left after receiving the order. Su Qing was so angry that she couldn’t sleep. The pregnant woman’s painful appearance kept flashing in front of her eyes.

This was the first time Xiao Zeyu had seen Su Qing so angry. His heart ached as he advised her,

“Qing er, don’t be angry. You’ll damage your body if you get angry.” Shuisheng, when I find out who this person is. Cut him into pieces.” Su Qing said through gritted teeth. Although she killed without batting an eye and was ruthless, she would never lay a hand on a pregnant woman.

Su Qing lay on the bed and did not fall asleep. She thought about everyone who appeared in the restaurant, especially their expressions and reactions after Ziqi stabbed the man with the dagger.

As she thought about this, the sky brightened. Su Qing got up and washed up.

She ate a simple bite of food and rushed to the women’s hospital to investigate the cause of death of the pregnant woman..
