Dean Zhao took the medicine bottle and poured out a pill from it. He sniffed it and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Can I get some water?"
Madam Xu immediately brought a bowl of water over, and Dean Zhao threw the pill into the water. The pill shrank as soon as it came into contact with the water and disappeared without a trace, but a special smell permeated the air, which soon dissipated.
Dean Zhao was shocked and knelt on the ground immediately: "Princess, when I was young, I traveled to many places. In Miaojiang, I saw a witch there making this kind of medicine. The people of Miaojiang have always believed in destiny. They think that people who have committed heinous crimes are not worthy of having offspring, so they made this kind of sterilizing pill. After taking it, no matter whether it is a boy or a girl, it is impossible for them to have offspring."
"So this medicine is unique to Miaojiang?"
"That's right. Miaojiang is a place that is almost completely isolated from the outside world. I don't know how this medicine has spread to the capital."
Su Jinwei, who was listening outside, couldn't hold it in any longer, so he rushed in: "If it's something from Miaojiang, why does Liang Di have it?"
Dean Zhao naturally couldn't answer. Zhao Zihang couldn't stand it anymore and defended his grandfather: "Your Highness, this medicine belongs to Liang Di. How can I know where this medicine came from? You can only get the answer by asking Liang Di now, right?"
Su Jinwei was a little displeased when he heard that Zhao Zihang dared to contradict him. Just as he was about to explode, Yan Ruqin suddenly burst into tears silently, which made Su Jinwei immediately panic: "Ruqin, what's wrong with you?"
Yan Ruqin wiped her tears with a handkerchief: "Your Highness, when we were in the hall before, Liang Di suddenly appeared. Although I was a little suspicious, I didn't think much about it. Now, she asked the maid to put this kind of drug that will make people childless in the lotus seed soup. What is she going to do next? Is she going to take my life?"
Su Jinwei quickly comforted her: "No, she doesn't dare."
"Your Highness, before entering the palace, Ruqin was still thinking about getting along well with the people in the Prince's Mansion. Now it seems that no one will welcome me. This marriage was granted by the Emperor and the Queen Mother. Now that Your Highness and I have been married, it can be considered a happy ending."
As she spoke, Yan Ruqin came to Su Jinwei and knelt down, "Your Highness, I will leave the hall."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Su Jinwei was anxious and angry. "How can I be blamed for what Li Qi did? No one dares to dislike you. Anyone who dislikes you will be driven out by me."
"Your Highness, today Concubine Liang can give me a contraceptive drug. Will you give me the same drug tomorrow if someone else is unhappy with you?" This sentence suddenly woke Su Jinwei up. He remembered that this drug is not only effective for women, but also for men.
What if Li Qi is not satisfied with me favoring other people and also drugs me?
"Someone come, bring Li Qi here!" Su Jinwei ordered sternly.
Su Jinwei originally didn't want to punish Li Qi in front of so many people. If something happened in the Prince's Mansion, Su Jinwei would be the one who would lose face.
Now, Su Jinwei couldn't bear it anymore. Even if it was embarrassing, he couldn't keep such a vicious woman by his side.
“Ruqin, don’t worry, I will definitely make the decision for you.” Su Jinwei said with deep affection, as if everything he said was for her.
Yan Ruqin was touched: "Thank you, Your Highness."
But when she lowered her head, a hint of coldness flashed across her eyes. This Su Jinwei was really like Li Liqi. No matter what happened, he always put his own interests first!
