"When did you know I was poisoned?"
Su Qingyu was still sitting in the imperial concubine's chair, but when she heard Lu Yuncheng said that he and the Queen Mother had obtained the antidote for the February flowers, she immediately sat upright.
Lu Yuncheng took her hand and held her in his arms, no longer having to hide his heartache.
"Why are you so stupid? What would you do if I never knew you were poisoned?"
Just the thought of Su Qingyu struggling to hold on alone until the end, but there is still the possibility of dying in front of him, Lu Yuncheng's heart was stung hard.
"But now you and the Queen Mother have obtained the antidote for me!"
Su Qingyu didn't want to say more about her contribution in front of Lu Yuncheng, and she didn't want to see him feel guilty for it.
She had endured this in order to keep his innocent heart and always remember her original intention. How could these things make him lose his mind and lose his direction?
Lu Yuncheng sighed silently and held her shoulders. His eyes lingered on her face for a long time before he let go.
He took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, and as soon as he opened it, Su Qingyu immediately smelled a strange fragrance.
"This is the antidote?"
Su Qingyu blinked, looked at the porcelain bottle and then at Lu Yuncheng, and asked tentatively: "When Your Majesty asked me to take this poison, he had no intention of giving me the antidote so early."
In other words, she felt that Emperor Ming simply wanted her to die from the poison of February Flower, so that Lu Yuncheng would have no one around him.
What on earth is Emperor Ming afraid of?
"What unfair deal did you and the Queen Mother make with His Majesty?"
Lu Yuncheng was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud: "When the imperial grandmother appears, there will be unfair transactions."
Of course he would not tell Su Qingyu that Emperor Ming gave him this antidote in exchange for the Gu insect case.
Therefore, when he went everywhere to investigate the source of the Gu worms, his good father already knew at some point that the Gu worms came from the hands of King Qi.
But as the king of a country, not only did he not intend to investigate thoroughly, but he immediately thought of hiding it for the King of Qi.
Now, he is afraid that he has already regarded King Qi as the next monarch he needs to train.
Lu Yuncheng never gave up and continued to investigate the Gu insect case, for the sake of the stability of the Great Xia Kingdom.
As for this superficial right, if it cannot be used to benefit the people, even if it is available, it is useless.
As long as it can exchange for Su Qingyu's safety, not to mention his rights, even if it takes his life.
Su Qingyu still didn't believe it: "Nonsense. If the antidote was so easy to get, I would have asked Grandma Huang to get it for me a long time ago. Why should I wait until now?"
Lu Yuncheng took a deep breath and thought to himself that this little fox was really hard to fool.
"Of course my father will not give this antidote to us easily. It was the royal grandmother who said we must outwit it."
Su Qingyu was suspicious: "Outwit?"
Lu Yuncheng nodded solemnly: "The Imperial Grandmother told the Emperor that if he doesn't give us the antidote to the flowers born in February, she will hang me with her at the entrance of the Qinzheng Palace of the Emperor."
Su Qingyu's red lips parted slightly: "Is this, outsmarting?"
This old lady, even the way she outsmarts her is so fresh and refined.
It's straightforward enough, and it should be just right for use on Emperor Ming.
Lu Yuncheng coughed slightly and said: "The Imperial Grandmother said that as long as it is not a preemptive robbery, these methods are within the scope of outwitness."
Recalling Emperor Ming's attitude towards the Queen Mother and the way the Queen Mother ignored Emperor Ming's clothes, most of Su Qingyu's doubts were relieved at that time.
"I've asked Dr. Xuanyuan to take a look at it. This is indeed the antidote for flowers born in February."
Lu Yuncheng poured the pills out of the small porcelain bottle and handed them to Su Qingyu's lips.
"Eat quickly."
Su Qingyu nodded, raised her hand, stuffed the pill into her mouth and swallowed it.
"Okay, my life is finally saved!"
The pill had just been taken into her stomach, but Su Qingyu was already full of morale.
"Starting tomorrow, I will go to see King Qi for a meeting."
"When I think that he can no longer pretend, I'm a little curious about his true face."
Lu Yuncheng narrowed his eyes: "Just take a look and you'll know."
The next day.
Su Qingyu took Mingyue to Prince Qi's Mansion.
The carriage was swaying, but it did not affect the thoughts in Su Qingyu's mind at all.
She casually opened the small curtain of the carriage and saw a familiar figure in the crowd.
"parking!"
Mingyue followed Su Qingyu's line of sight suspiciously, and then immediately got out of the car so that she could help her master get out of the carriage and maintain her image of being weak and unable to take care of herself.
Su Qingyu came to the stall in two steps. Su Qingru, who was choosing silver hairpins, was completely unaware and was still asking the vendor for the price.
"Qingru."
Su Qingru turned around suddenly and was overjoyed to see Su Qingyu looking at her with a smile.
"Sister! Why are you here?"
"I was about to go to Prince Qi's Mansion. I happened to see you when I was passing by, so I came down to say hello to you."
Su Qingxue is dead. She and Su Qingru, mother and daughter, are the only ones left in the Su family in the capital.
The moment she saw Su Qingru, Su Qingyu couldn't tell whether she felt sad in her heart.
"How's it going? How are you and Aunt Qin doing during this time?"
Su Qingru nodded hurriedly: "Okay! We are all good!"
"You ask Caiwei to bring us money, food and clothing every month and don't let us do any work. My mother keeps talking about it every day, and she's going to get sick from idle time."
"Finally, I asked her to embroider some handkerchiefs to relieve her boredom. She was good at it. She embroidered all day long. After saving up, she let me take it to the embroidery shop and sell it for money."
Seeing that the smile on Su Qingru's face didn't look like a fake, Su Qingyu was really happy for their current state.
"Did you buy this hairpin for Aunt Qin?"
Su Qingru lowered her eyes in embarrassment: "Today is my mother's birthday..."
"It's Aunt Qin's birthday!"
Surprised, Su Qingyu raised her hand and groped around her body, trying to see if she had any suitable jewelry that could be given to her.
In the end, to no avail, he could only take out a hosta from his bun and hand it to Su Qingru.
"Qingru, congratulate Aunt Qin on her birthday for me. I went out in a hurry and didn't bring anything decent with me. I hope you don't mind."
Since leaving the Hou Mansion, Su Qingru understood that Su Qingyu had always been taking care of their mother and daughter's lives, so how could they accept her gifts now.
But she refused several times, but in the end she couldn't get over Su Qingyu, so she could only accept the hairpin with gratitude.
"Sister, if you are not busy today, can you come back for a meal?"
Su Qingru asked cautiously, as if she was afraid that Su Qingyu would misunderstand that she wanted to follow the dragon and the phoenix.
Su Qingyu felt anxious because of her words.
It turns out that this girl stayed in the capital so that she could have a family to return to...
She raised her hand and patted Su Qingru's head, and said with a smile: "Okay! I haven't tasted Aunt Qin's craftsmanship for a long time. I will look for you when I come back from Prince Qi's Mansion."
When Su Qingru heard this, she immediately smiled and said, "Then my mother and I will wait for my eldest sister at home!"
"good."
There was a slight delay on the way, and when Su Qingyu arrived at Prince Qi's mansion, Prince Qi was sitting in the flower hall in the front yard drinking tea.
Judging from his leisurely look, it was obvious that he was waiting for her to come.
"Hey, how come my brothers and sisters have time to come to my Prince Qi's Mansion today?"
After Su Qingyu entered, she casually found a seat at the bottom and sat down.
Seeing this, King Qi raised his hand and asked his servants to show her the tea.
Although there is no conflict on the surface between the two people, it can even be said to be very harmonious, but the turmoil inside is probably only known to them.
"I heard that the seventh brother and sister got a job of investigating the case from my father through hard work. Now if we don't go to investigate the case while the iron is hot, how come we have time to come to this king?"
