Nian Susu knew that Lin Yuerong would definitely be dissatisfied with her performance just now. In order to avoid trouble, she was the first one to rush out of the main hall and leave after the matter was resolved. Lin Yuerong couldn't keep her even if she wanted to.

Back in the East Wing, the system distributed rewards, one hundred thousand taels of silver and a chance to draw a lottery.

As expected, she pressed the lottery button on the spot.

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the item *Moonlight Box*]

"Moonlight Box?" Nian Susu observed the small box and found that it looked very similar to the Moonlight Box of Fairy Zixia in "A Chinese Odyssey". The function should be the same, which can make time go back.

The Moonlight Box is the most practical item she has drawn so far. The previous "Itchy Powder" and "Dancing Pills" could only play tricks on people, but the Moonlight Box might be able to save her life at a critical moment.

Nian Susu looked through her backpack and found that she had saved more than one million taels without realizing it. The props she had won before were all gathering dust in her bag and had never been used. Things that she had worked so hard to get must not be wasted, so she had to find a chance to use up all the props.

The next day.

Nian Susu was summoned into the palace by the Queen. She had a hunch that it was not a good thing. Recalling what happened on the birthday banquet, she guessed that the Queen was here for a marriage between her and Prince Qing Qin Fengtian.

The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict brought the person to the outside of Zhongcui Palace and went in to report.

Nian Susu stood at the bottom of the steps, straightening her clothes. She had dressed simply on purpose, in a palace satin and snow-white silk skirt, with only a few hairpins in her hair.

If Prince Qing were here too, I hope he would see how ordinary I am and persuade the Queen to give up the idea of ​​an arranged marriage.

The Queen was attracted by the power of the Prime Minister's Mansion behind Nian Susu, but according to the character of Prince Qing, he would definitely not marry her if he was not satisfied. So she placed some hope on Prince Qing.

The father-in-law sent a message to signal Nian Susu to go in.

Unfortunately, Prince Qing is not here.

Nian Susu put away his little thoughts and bowed obediently.

The queen happily invited her to sit next to her and held her hand affectionately. After the two exchanged a few pleasantries, the queen naturally turned the topic to Nian Susu's marriage.

"Miss Nian, you are not young anymore, it's time to think about marriage. You are the eldest daughter of the Nian family and a legitimate daughter, so you must be very careful in choosing a husband. He must be of equal status, with good family background and good looks." The queen gently stroked the back of her hand, like a mother giving instructions to her daughter.

But Nian Susu didn't feel any warmth, only full of calculations.

She pretended not to understand the Queen's implication and smiled, "Your Majesty is right. I will consider it carefully."

Seeing that she was so rude, the queen had to make it clear: "I like you very much. If you are willing to marry Fengtian and become my daughter-in-law, I will definitely not treat you unfairly."

She put away her smile and looked at Nian Su Su with a scrutinizing gaze, which carried an invisible sense of oppression.

Nian Susu froze. Was this a discussion or an order? The threatening look in the queen's eyes clearly indicated that she would suffer if she did not agree.

But Qin Fengtian is the hero of the original book, and he is going to be with Nian Qiaoyue! What will happen to Nian Qiaoyue if she marries Qin Fengtian? How will the plot go? How can she complete her mission and return to the modern world?

No, she absolutely cannot marry Qin Fengtian!

Nian Susu bit her lower lip, looking embarrassed, and blinked fearfully, hoping that the queen could read the rejection in her eyes.

The queen pretended to be dumbfounded and looked away, then smiled again, and spoke softly to her, "Miss Nian, although you and I are both women and do not participate in political affairs, but since we were born in an aristocratic family, we should have the awareness of consciously contributing to the family."

The queen paused, observing Nian Susu's expression from the corner of her eye. Seeing that she showed no impatience or resistance, she continued, "Miss Nian should be clear about the situation in the court. If you marry Fengtian, Fengtian will have the help of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and in the future..."

The meaning behind this is self-evident. Qin Fengtian becomes the crown prince, and will be the emperor in the future, and Nian Susu will be the future queen. With such a great temptation, which young lady from aristocratic family can refuse it?

Nian Su Su Neng.

She smiled and shook her head, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty, but I don't want to trade marriage for you. Your Majesty is so handsome and talented, and I don't think I am worthy of you. Please withdraw your sincerity, Your Majesty."

Nian Susu muttered to himself, is this answer perfect?

No matter how much the Queen wanted the two families to marry, she still had to save face. She had said it so decisively that it was impossible for the Queen to lower her face and persuade her.

"I was inconsiderate and did not discuss this with Miss Nian in advance. I guess you must be scared by bringing this up so abruptly." The queen smiled gently, as if she was not the one who had just put pressure on her.

Nian Susu smiled obediently and shook his head.

The Queen held her aside and talked for a while, and the two of them tacitly agreed not to mention the marriage again.

It was already noon when Nian Susu came out of Zhongcui Palace.

She put her hands on her hips and exhaled heavily. Now the Queen should have completely given up the idea of ​​making her her daughter-in-law, right?

The next second, the system suddenly popped up.

[Warning! Warning! The host has triggered a hidden plot, and will soon enter the finale! Achieve the hidden achievement *Far from homeland, marry into the Fan Gang*]

[Friendly reminder, if the host fails to complete the mission before the physical body in the novel world dies, the soul will die along with the physical body and will never be able to return to the real world]

Nian Susu cursed in his heart: Fuck!

How can there be such a thing as entering the finale in advance? When the system was bound, it didn't say that it would trigger the hidden ending!

She thought about it and felt it was absurd. She had clearly rejected the Queen's marriage proposal, so how could it be...

The corners of Nian Susu's mouth twitched, as if he understood what was going on.

The Queen wanted her to marry Prince Qing, but she refused. However, the Queen was afraid that she would marry another prince and bring the power of the Prime Minister's Mansion to compete with Prince Qing for the throne, so she simply sent her to marry to eliminate future troubles. The Queen seemed to be friendly on the surface, but she sold her out behind her back!

No, she can't just die like this!

Nian Susu opened his backpack in a hurry, his eyes quickly scanned the props inside, and his gaze finally fell on the "Moonlight Box". He didn't expect that he only got it last night, and it would come in handy today.

After clicking "Use", a dazzling light appeared and Nian Susu closed his eyes uncomfortably.

Three seconds later, she tentatively opened her eyes, and the queen's loving smile appeared before her.

Nian Susu was stunned. Which plot point had she returned to?

Before rejection? After rejection?

If it was after rejection, then what's the point of her coming back? It's still a dead end!

"Young lady, you should be clear about the situation in the court. If you marry Fengtian, Fengtian will have the help of the Prime Minister's Mansion. In the future..."

When the Queen said this line, Nian Susu breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the system still had a conscience.

After pondering for a moment, Nian Susu said, "Your Majesty, I understand everything you said." She smiled with great joy, "But marriage is not a joke. Although I have the intention, I still have to go back and discuss it with my father before making a decision."

Her answer was ambiguous. Anyway, as long as the Queen knew that she was inclined to stand on Prince Qing's side, she would not be sent to marry, right?
