"It's all fine, there are plenty of pills."

Gu Jiangli was relieved.

The strange fragrance did not dissipate and continued to stimulate her senses.

The room was completely dark, and nothing could be seen.

It took both Grandpa Qin and Lotus lighting a tinderbox to barely see their surroundings.

There were no extra decorations in the room.

The emperor pulled her to a quiet place to sit down.

They walked slowly in the darkness.

Gu Jiangli said, "Your Majesty is truly well-prepared; you even have things like this."

She thought the system would take action, but the emperor had already taken care of everything.

The emperor said, "There's no other way. You and I have been poisoned and bewitched these past few years. We have to find some way to deal with it."

"I had people working on it for over a year, and finally we have this pill that can protect against basic poisons."

"The imperial physicians examined each patient and confirmed that it can be used even during pregnancy. It can resist external toxins, is harmless to the body, and is also harmless to the child."

Gu Jiangli felt more at ease.

The emperor is indeed quite reliable.

He did a lot of things for her privately.

Bringing him along this time was absolutely the right decision.

"Yes, Your Majesty is very thoughtful. We owe a great debt to you this time."

Just as he finished speaking, Gu Jiangli's ears twitched.

There was a faint sobbing sound on the right, very soft and barely audible.

"Your Majesty, there seems to be someone over there..."

She turned the emperor around and pointed in a certain direction in the darkness.

The emperor had no doubt about her judgment. He took the tinderbox from Eunuch Qin, pulled Gu Jiangli along, and walked forward, blocking Gu Jiangli's way step by step.

As they got closer, the sound became clearer, and everyone could hear heavy breathing.

As the panting grew closer, the emperor crouched down and placed a tinderbox on the man's face.

Gu Jiangli leaned closer for a look and exclaimed in surprise, "Father!"
