After swallowing my anger and taking the blame, I became the lucky little queen

The two men stood in the corridor, and the imperial physician was waiting at the steps.

"Miss Nian was truly heroic today. I didn't even have a chance to save her. I really admire you." Qin Guanqing teased her with a smile, his tone brisk.

Nian Susu glanced at him and said in a teasing tone, "The girls waiting to be rescued by the second prince are lining up from Shengjing to Xisu. Can you let me go this time?"

Qin Guanqing laughed so hard that he coughed.

"Miss Nian, how can you, a lady from a wealthy family, scold people so well and without taking a breath? Have you received any special training in this area?"

He was really curious. Because in his impression, girls were either delicate and gentle like Li Yaoyuan, who dared not say a word when bullied and just wanted to make a big deal out of a small matter; or they were arrogant and unreasonable like Wang Yuejiao, who yelled like a shrew. If anyone provoked her, it would be like being haunted by a ghost and there was no way to escape.

Li Yaoyuan is too weak and Wang Yuejiao is too annoying, neither is good.

As for Nian Susu, she has a sense of justice. When you hear her scolding people, you will not feel disgusted. Instead, you will feel that what she says is very right and every word she says hits the nail on the head!

"Not bad. I've practiced for more than ten years. If you want to learn, pay the tuition fee and I will teach you everything I know!"

"More than ten years? Then you must be..."

Qin Guanqing estimated that she was only seventeen or eighteen years old.

"That's right, when other kids are born - wow wow wow, I'm born - come and see if I scold you or not, you're done for."

"Hahaha...little fox, you are so cute." Qin Guanqing blurted out.

After he finished speaking, he realized that something was wrong. Why did he say what was in his heart? Would she think he was frivolous? Would she feel offended?

Qin Guanqing was in a state of confusion and his eyes were panicked.

Nian Susu hesitated for a second before slowly speaking: "Little, fox, raccoon?" She frowned and turned to look at him sideways, with an attitude of "please explain it to me".

"Well..." Qin Guanqing blushed in front of the girl for a rare time, "It's an adjective. It's praising you."

Before Nian Susu could ask further questions, the door behind them opened, and a little maid came out and saluted to the two of them, "Second Prince, Miss Nian, the young lady has changed her clothes."

Qin Guanqing breathed a sigh of relief and made a "please" gesture: "Miss Nian, please."

Nian Susu snorted coldly and entered the room.

The imperial physician examined Li Yaoyuan's injuries and found that they were not serious. As long as she took the medicine on time, the red marks on her face would disappear soon.

Qin Guanqing waved his hand and asked the imperial physician to leave.

"A-choo——" Nian Susu rubbed his nose.

When she came out of the Nine-Turn Corridor, she felt her hands and feet were cold, and now her nose felt blocked. She suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.

Li Yaoyuan then realized that her cloak was lent to her and she was wearing a thin cotton dress.

"Miss Nian, are you catching a cold?"

Li Yaoyuan searched the room for the white fox fur cloak and finally found it hanging on the clothes rack. She thought that the maid must have hung it there when she was changing clothes just now.

She took it off and put it on Nian Susu.

Nian Susu laughed and said, "I'm not that pretentious, it's just that my nose is a little... sneeze - sneeze -"

"Let the imperial physician prescribe some medicine for you." Qin Guanqing suggested.

Nian Susu refused because there were no stoves and medicine pots for cooking medicine in Juxiang Garden. If he took the medicine, he would have to send someone to buy the tools for cooking medicine, which would be too troublesome, so he simply did not accept the good intention.

Qin Guanqing and Li Yaoyuan couldn't persuade her, so they had to do as she wished.

The two men told Li Yaoyuan to apply the ointment on time, and asked her to avoid seeing Wang Yuejiao if possible in the future, and then they went out together as if sitting in the spring breeze.

"Miss Nian, are you really okay? It's easy to get sick during the changing seasons. Why don't you let the imperial physician take a look at you? Illness comes like a mountain falling, and goes away like a thread being pulled out. You'll be the one who suffers the most."

"Second Prince, please worry less about me. Instead of spending your time like that, you might as well go to the garden and see if there are any other girls fighting over you." Nian Susu couldn't help but retort him.

Qin Guanqing was not annoyed. "Yes, yes, yes. I hope that the person involved in the fight next time will not be a young lady. If you must fight, remember to be gentle, otherwise I will not be able to protect you."

"cut!"

Qin Guanqing was going to look for the fifth prince, while Nian Susu was going to look for Zhihua, and one of them was heading east while the other was heading west.

Nian Susu returned to the Koi Pond, but did not see Zhihua. Instead, he ran into the fifth prince Qin Wenyuan whom Qin Guanqing was looking for.

Qin Wenyuan stood alone in front of the pool, with his hands behind his back, brows furrowed, looking experienced and deep, and his demeanor really resembled Qin Junyu.

Nian Susu walked behind him and looked at the pond full of koi. The first thing that came to his mind was what Liu Zongyuan mentioned in "Notes on the Small Rock Pool": "There are more than a hundred fish in the pool, all of them seem to be swimming in the air without support."

Qin Wenyuan looked back. There was still some baby fat on his face, but his facial features were three-dimensional, his eyes were sharp, and his temperament was completely different from that of a man of his age.

"Miss Nian?" Qin Wenyuan asked uncertainly.

Nian Susu bowed, "Fifth Prince, do you recognize me?"

Qin Wenyuan turned his head back and continued to look at the koi in the pond. He answered expressionlessly, "I recognize it. Your lyrics are very good."

He paused for a few seconds, nodded and added: "This poem is also good."

She held her forehead helplessly, wondering why she couldn't get over that poem.

“There are perhaps a hundred fish in the pond, all swimming in the air with nowhere to rest,” he repeated in a murmur.

Nian Susu actually had another purpose for coming forward to say hello. She had thought about this for a long time, but she didn't dare to ask anyone else. It just so happened that the Fifth Prince was here, and she came up with a bold idea.

Judging from the situation at the palace banquet, the Fifth Prince and Qin Junyu seemed to be quite close. Although both of them kept strangers away, their auras were compatible, so the Fifth Prince might know Qin Junyu's whereabouts.

It shouldn't be a problem for her to ask around a ten-year-old child.

"Fifth Prince, why are you here alone? Why don't you find someone to accompany you?" She made small talk.

Qin Wenyuan did not answer immediately, and during the few seconds of silence, the air was filled with awkwardness.

"Aren't you alone too? You don't even need someone to accompany you, so why should I?"

Nian Susu's mouth twitched, feeling that this little brat was more difficult to deal with than Qin Junyu.

Since he is so indifferent, she has no choice but to use her trump card against elementary school students!

She leaned over and asked curiously, "How are your grades? Did you do well on the exams? Have your parents ever been called by the teacher?"

Qin Wenyuan: ...

He glanced at Nian Susu, still indifferent, "Since ancient times, scholars have strived for the imperial examinations, reading and writing day and night, trying to change their lives by winning the first prize.

But the number of places is limited, so there are many participants, and countless people fail. Some people may not succeed even if they study for half their lives. Only the best and most capable people can stand out. "

Nian Susu was confused and didn't know why he mentioned the imperial examination.

Then he asked: "Do you know why I failed the imperial examination?"
