Chapter 225: Investigating Song Miqiu

"Physician Song, how do you usually improve your medical skills? Could you teach us?"

"Yes, we'd love to know, if it's discovered that the concubines in the harem are unable to conceive, how should their bodies be treated to help them get pregnant?"

Upon hearing this, Song Miqiu instantly understood that the other party wanted her to tell him everything that had happened.

She remained silent for a moment, not telling them everything they said, but instead focusing on sharing the most important information with those who wanted to inquire about her medical skills.

As for those who wanted to hear gossip, Song Miqiu treated them kindly, whispering what he had seen without changing a single word.

Ming Taicheng stood still. He had originally intended to call Song Miqiu over to investigate the other formulas together.

Ming Taicheng really liked the prescription that Song Miqiu had given him before, but people can't be satisfied. After thoroughly understanding the prescription, Ming Taicheng wanted to get other prescriptions from Song Miqiu.

Now we see that even though Song Miqiu was praised by the emperor and fawned over by the people of the Imperial Hospital, he did not become arrogant. Instead, he treated the imperial physicians in a more approachable and down-to-earth manner.

She smiled as she interacted with the imperial physicians, but when she slightly raised her gaze, she saw one person clearly. Song Miqiu was stunned for a moment, remembering how that person and Lin Yecheng had treated her, and the smile on her face instantly vanished.

But considering that Lin Yecheng has also been ousted from power, and that he is now helpless and alone in the Imperial Hospital.

Just now, Song Miqiu also noticed that without Lin Yecheng's protection, this man, who used to cause trouble everywhere in the Imperial Hospital because of Lin Yecheng, is now mostly unwilling to get close to him.

Thinking of this, Song Miqiu walked over, stood in front of the man, and extended her hand.

Seeing this, the other imperial physicians immediately reached out and grabbed Song Miqiu's wrist, whispering to her, "He and Lin Yecheng bullied us before, but now that Lin Yecheng is gone, he must be trying to get to know you so he can continue to bully others in the Imperial Hospital by relying on you after you've risen to power again."

Thinking of the suffering he had endured, the imperial physician didn't treat Song Miqiu with any kindness, and he subconsciously rolled his eyes.

Song Miqiu ignored their words and stared straight at them.

The man cautiously raised his eyes to look at Song Miqiu. Seeing that the other imperial physicians did not look down on him after hearing their words, he reached out and shook Song Miqiu's hand in return.

When the time came, the imperial physicians gradually dispersed.

Ming Taicheng saw all of this, and he narrowed his eyes with great satisfaction, stroking his beard with a smile.

As Song Miqiu was about to leave after her shift, she heard someone calling her from behind. Puzzled, she turned around and saw Ming Taicheng standing not far away, waving at her.

Seeing this, Song Miqiu smiled and strode up to Ming Taicheng. She looked up at him with a puzzled expression and asked, "Is there something you need from me?"

"I'd like you to come back to my house with me for a while. I have something I'd like to talk to you about."

Upon hearing this, Song Miqiu immediately refused. Seeing the puzzled look in the other person's eyes, she gave a dry laugh and helplessly spread her hands, "I have something to do right now, so I can't come to your house for a visit."

Song Miqiu knew that she was still in the eye of the storm, and if she went to Ming Taicheng's house with him, she might implicate Ming Taicheng.

She was never one to drag others down, and given that she and Ming Taicheng really got along well, Song Miqiu cherished this friend even more.

Seeing that he couldn't invite Song Miqiu, Ming Taicheng sighed helplessly. He nodded and smiled, saying to her, "In that case, let's make an appointment another time!"

He turned and strode towards the carriage in front of him. Song Miqiu stood still, smiling as he watched him walk to the carriage.

Upon learning that Song Miqiu was unharmed, Vice Minister Zhou began to harbor some ulterior motives. Although he was shocked to learn of Lin Yecheng's execution, he still wanted to do something about it.

Because he felt that he himself was not as foolish as Lin Yecheng.

When Lin Yecheng made his move, Vice Minister Zhou had observed him closely and discovered that Lin Yecheng was openly following Song Miqiu, which would surely have been noticed by Lin Yecheng.

The best approach would be to remain inactive and wait for the most opportune moment to step in and resolve the issue.

Thinking of this, Vice Minister Zhou shook his head. Suddenly remembering something, he summoned his trusted aides and asked, "Did I ask you to investigate Song Miqiu's background before?"

The confidant didn't know why Vice Minister Zhou suddenly asked this question, but he still honestly shook his head, "No, he just told us to keep an eye on Song Miqiu's movements."

They stopped observing Song Miqiu's condition once he entered the palace and was imprisoned.

Thinking of this, the confidant subconsciously asked, "Master, do you still need me to lead men to guard Song Miqiu and keep a close eye on his situation?"

"Not for now." Considering Song Miqiu's experiences these past few days, Vice Minister Zhou felt that continuing to follow Song Miqiu probably wouldn't reveal anything.

It's nothing more than going back and forth between the palace and home.

Suddenly, something occurred to him, and a glint of light flashed in his eyes. Vice Minister Zhou looked up at his trusted confidant and said in a deep voice, "You need to investigate Song Miqiu's background."

Vice Minister Zhou thought that Song Miqiu's origins had always been a mystery. He had wanted to investigate Song Miqiu before, but Lin Yecheng's appearance made him temporarily give up the idea.

Now that Lin Yecheng is gone, Vice Minister Zhou has started to consider targeting Song Miqiu again.

"Why?" the confidant asked instinctively. He really didn't understand why he would bother to inquire about an elderly person, simply because he had dealt with one of Vice Minister Zhou's men earlier.

The other party glared coldly at his confidant and questioned in a deep voice, "Does it mean that I need your permission to investigate someone?"

The confidant then realized he had spoken out of turn and quickly lowered his head.

The confidant quickly found out the information, and Vice Minister Zhou narrowed his eyes slightly as he listened to what the confidant said.

He had guessed Song Miqiu's identity, but he never expected it to be such a suspicious one.

This only fueled Zhou Shilang's curiosity, prompting him to investigate Song Miqiu even more thoroughly.

However, Qing Zhi soon discovered that Vice Minister Zhou was investigating Song Miqiu. He went directly to Song Miqiu and told him what he had discovered.

"Is Vice Minister Zhou investigating me?" Song Miqiu's eyes crinkled with laughter, finding Vice Minister Zhou's action amusing.

How could Zhou Shilang possibly discover her true identity so easily?

"What should we do now? Hide the information even deeper, so that Vice Minister Zhou can't find the result he wants?"
