Chapter 548 He was willing to stay by her side forever.

Upon hearing her say this, Di Jingling did not object.

He was willing to stay by her side forever.

Even if she eventually gets tired of him, he will never let go.

This time, we will not let what happened five years ago happen again!

Xiao Tang has already entered Ruyi Palace.

Xiao Yiru was holding a cat and playing with it when she suddenly felt Xiao Tangluo's gaze coming from her.

She gently put the cat down in her arms, stood up softly, and said in a low voice, "Sixth Sister, you've finally arrived! I just had the Imperial Kitchen make you the best white fungus and pear soup."

"I heard that Sixth Sister used to cook for herself when she was in the Great Sheng Kingdom. I wonder if this snow fungus and pear soup will suit your taste?"

At first glance, this statement doesn't seem problematic.

But the more Xiao Tang listened, the stranger and more inexplicable it became.

When the eunuch brought out the snow fungus and pear soup, Xiao Yiru praised, "Sixth Sister, please try it."

That's really impressive.

This woman was a completely different person in the Xiao residence and in the imperial palace.

Anyone who didn't know better would think she had a split personality.

Xiao Tang picked up the white fungus and pear soup and took a sniff.

Wow, that's amazing!

No wonder she felt this woman was so "kind" and enthusiastic, suddenly inviting her into the palace and then suddenly serving her a soup of white fungus and snow pear.

Love awaits her here.

The soup is poisoned.

[This is truly... such a clumsy method; it's a wonder you came up with it.]

[I wonder if this foolish woman is even considering the possibility of Emperor Dongyuan causing her trouble?]

Seeing that she was not moving, Xiao Yiru was very excited, "Sixth sister, why aren't you drinking it? Drinking it will quench your thirst."

"Oh dear, but I'm not thirsty."

"Alright, since you seem to care so much, I'll play along."

Let's see how far you can go!

She slowly put down the bowl of soup.

He looked completely innocent.

Seeing that Xiao Yiru was about to explode with anger, Xiao Tang was in a very good mood.

Suddenly a cool breeze brushed against my cheek.

Xiao Tang only caught a glimpse of a black garment fluttering past in the corner of her eye. Immediately afterward, the man raised his hand and knocked the bowl of soup to the ground.

The soup sizzled as it hit the ground.

"It's poisonous!" Xiao Tang feigned surprise.

She frowned as she looked at Xiao Yiru, whose face had changed, and chuckled softly, "It seems that the Imperial Concubine is trying to harm me. Luckily, my guards are sensible, otherwise I would have been lucky to survive."

"No..." Xiao Yiru gritted her teeth.

She never expected that the guard Xiao Tang had chosen would be such a nuisance!

This matter originally had nothing to do with him, so why was he getting involved?

This thing is being protected!

"Who brought this? How dare you harm my sixth sister? Are you tired of living?" Xiao Yiru scolded the eunuch.

The eunuch, who was already being blamed, buckled at the knees and knelt down.

"Your Highness, please spare me! This servant had no idea there was poison in this..."

"Drag him away and behead him!" Xiao Yiru found someone to take down with her, a smug smile playing on her lips.

Her arrogant demeanor indicated that she was in a very good mood.

Xiao Tang pursed her lips and glanced at Di Jingling.

"Well, now that the farce is over, I'll take my leave."

She stood up and dusted off a corner of her dress.

She clicked her tongue lightly: "I can't drink this soup anymore, I'm leaving now."

Xiao Tang led Di Jingling away.

Xiao Yiru sat there, seething with anger. She was furious, but the servants dared not guess the reason for her anger.

Xiao Yiru suddenly glared at the little eunuch beside her, "How did someone notice just now? What an idiot!"

"Your Majesty, please reconsider! This is absolutely unacceptable."

"If this woman really dies, and the emperor of the Great Sheng Kingdom finds out about this, the consequences will be unimaginable."

The eunuch's words were indeed correct.

If Xiao Tang were to die in her palace, it would be far too direct.

Regardless of what the Great Sheng Emperor would do, the Eastern Yuan Emperor would probably praise her for doing a good job.

...

Di Jingling followed behind her and asked in a low voice, "Are you really going to see the Empress?"

"certainly."

This is my mission; I absolutely cannot abandon it.

"I can go back and reunite with you later. Such a wonderful opportunity, are you really going to let me give it up?"

Of course, Di Jingling wouldn't let her give up.

Seeing her like this, he knew it must be a task assigned by the system.

He slightly lowered his brows and softly hummed in agreement.

The imperial palace bedroom.

The Empress had just drunk that bitter medicine, and the bitter taste lingered in her mouth.

She almost felt nauseous.

Just then, a palace servant came in to report: "Your Majesty, the sixth young lady of the Xiao family requests an audience."

Upon hearing that it was Xiao Tang, the Empress felt grateful and nodded with a smile: "Quickly invite her in."

This incident can be considered as Xiao Tang saving her life.

She didn't know how big her belly would get, or if it would eventually burst.

Now, looking at her flat stomach, she is increasingly satisfied.

As Xiao Tang entered the palace, before she could even perform her rites, the Empress gently supported her with both arms.

"You don't need to be so polite, you are my benefactor."

Xiao Tang sighed inwardly.

That doesn't count, does it?

After all, she only treated him because she needed to complete her mission.

"Has Your Majesty's health improved at all?"

The Empress smiled and nodded happily. She said softly to Xiao Tang, "Your health is much better now. It's mainly thanks to Sixth Miss's excellent medical skills. Anyone else would definitely not be able to do this."
