Chapter 557 What are you talking about? He's still my father.
Huangfu Cangyun didn't think she wouldn't dare; in fact, he thought this woman was incredibly daring.
Everything changes completely when it comes to her.
His authority usually worked on women, but it was completely ineffective with Xiao Tang.
Huangfu Cangyun truly couldn't understand it.
Xiao Tang clapped his hands and smiled, saying, "Your Majesty, since it's getting late, I'll go see the Empress first."
They're gone.
This was the first time the eunuchs had ever seen such an arrogant and fearless woman.
"Your Majesty, this woman truly cannot be allowed to live!"
"What's the rush? If she really couldn't be kept alive, I would have taken her worthless life long ago! Go and inform them to withdraw the troops and let those caravans go back."
The eunuch was greatly surprised.
It seems that the Emperor cares more about the Empress than these so-called spies.
When Xiao Tang went to find the Empress, the system reported: [Host, great! The caravan has left safely. What did you do?]
[Hmm, it's nothing much, just a gamble on whether this emperor is a hopeless romantic.]
[Especially his feelings and attitude towards the Empress.]
After all, based on their several encounters, the emperor seemed to care about the empress, but not to the point where he absolutely had to.
This emperor is truly a scoundrel.
"The matter is settled. You can come back now."
Xiao Tang entered the palace and saw the nanny accompanying the Empress feeding her a bowl of mung bean soup.
The old woman was quite surprised to see her.
"Miss Xiao has arrived."
The Empress put down her bowl.
When she saw Xiao Tang, her expression was rather conflicted; she couldn't tell whether she was happy or unhappy.
Xiao Tang didn't care whether she was happy or not, and said directly, "His Majesty sent me to take the Empress's pulse."
Xiao Tang's tone sounded somewhat nonchalant.
The Empress felt that this woman seemed somewhat impatient.
She raised her sleeve to cover her mouth and coughed lightly a few times.
"Thank you for your trouble, Miss Xiao."
She pulled up her sleeves, revealing her slender wrists.
Xiao Tang came over and took her pulse.
He frowned as he took her pulse.
"Has Her Majesty the Empress been taking her medicine on time?"
Yes, there are.
Xiao Tang shook her head slightly, feeling that she was lying. "I think you're lying."
The Empress's eyes flickered slightly, and she turned her gaze away, not daring to look directly at Xiao Tang.
Even if something happened, she would never tell Xiao Tang.
If I were to reveal something so important, wouldn't that make me look foolish?
Xiao Tang made a guess based on her reaction.
"Does Her Majesty the Empress think... that she's using this method to frame me, so the Emperor will blame me for not treating him properly?"
"No, that's not it. I don't know what nonsense you're talking about!"
The Empress vehemently denied it.
But in reality, this woman's acting skills are really not that great.
The entire process made the acting elements seem very deliberate.
Even Xiao Tang couldn't stand it anymore.
"The Empress said last time that she wanted to conceive a royal child as soon as possible, but it seems that her body really doesn't want it now."
"With the Empress's health condition, if she treats herself so badly, she will naturally suffer the consequences in the future."
"Since I have said this much, I shall take my leave now."
The Empress called out to her, "Wait, I'll listen to you. Is it okay if I take my medicine on time and in the correct dosage?"
What truly moved her was Xiao Tang's claim of being pregnant with the emperor's child.
That makes sense.
It's impossible for Xiao Tang to really have anything going on with the Emperor; her most urgent task is to get pregnant as soon as possible.
She absolutely couldn't let Xiao Tang stand by and watch the spectacle.
Xiao Tang subtly curled her lips, "Of course."
The Empress agreed.
Several days later.
Xiao Tang went to the palace again to examine the Empress's pulse. "Her Majesty the Empress is recovering well."
For that reason alone, she should indeed exclaim, "Excellent!"
The Empress was secretly delighted.
The emperor was also present.
She turned to look at the emperor, her eyes sparkling.
She was telling Huangfu Cangyun with her eyes that she was truly gratified.
Huangfu Cangyun also found out, and asked, "So, is she able to get pregnant?"
"Let's treat it for another half month and then see how it goes."
The emperor remained silent.
Xiao Tang took her leave.
She really didn't understand what this damn system meant by curing the empress's illness and helping her get pregnant. Was that reasonable?
This is simply outrageous.
The Empress didn't seem like her great benefactor or someone who would help her, no matter how you looked at her.
The dog system is definitely messing with her again.
Just as they were about to leave the palace, they ran into Xiao Yiru again.
The woman's anger flared up the moment she saw her.
She glared at Xiao Tang: "You just wait, you'll get your comeuppance!"
What does "retribution" refer to?
Xiao Tang was quite interested.
"Oh, is that so? Then I'll wait and see. If Your Highness goes back on your word, don't blame me."
"You dare threaten me?" Xiao Yiru's beautiful eyes widened.
Xiao Tang shrugged.
I didn't want to waste time with this woman, so I decided to walk around her.
But Xiao Yiru wouldn't let it go and quickly stepped forward to stop her, saying, "Xiao Tang, you'd better be careful, the Xiao family has many good things waiting for you!"
Xiao Tang ignored her.
What a great thing!
What, did they summon a ghost to scare her?
Xiao Tang pouted, "That's good, I'm actually looking forward to it. Don't block the way, a good dog doesn't block the way, understand?"
"you!"
No longer looking at Xiao Yiru, Xiao Tang walked away as if no one else was there.
She didn't even want to look at the woman again.
Why waste time on a fool?
Xiao Yiru bit her lip.
