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

Nian Susu didn't even look at her, "Wait a moment."

She raised her chin and pointed at the stool. "If you are tired of standing, just sit down and rest for a while. There is no need to say these high-sounding words."

Nian Qiaoyue's face flushed, and she felt ashamed that her little thoughts had been discovered. She had indeed been standing for too long, and her legs were sore. It was windy today and very cold outside, so she came into the house just to avoid the wind.

However, Nian Susu didn't seem to have any intention of making things difficult or mocking her, so she stopped talking and sat in the seat farthest from Nian Susu. She rubbed her knees and calves slightly with her hands on her knees.

At three quarters past the hour of Chen, Nian Susu finally got up.

Nian Qiaoyue was the most excited. She stood up immediately and took the initiative to help carry the bag.

As soon as Nian Susu put on her shoes, she was already waiting at the door with bags. She stared at Nian Susu with excitement and expectation, fearing that she would not take her with her.

Nian Susu was quite speechless and gave Zhihua a look.

Zhihua understood and ran over to take back the small package that belonged to Nian Susu. "Second Miss, I can do this kind of work. Why should I trouble you to do it?"

Although she said nice things, she did not help Nian Qiaoyue get the things. She ran back to Nian Susu with the package in her arms.

Nian Qiaoyue pouted and said nothing.

The three of them left the east wing together.

Because Nian Chengyun did not agree with Nian Qiaoyue's going to watch Mulan hunting, for fear that she would cause trouble again, or embarrass him as a father and make him lose face, so Nian Susu could only secretly take her with him, and the two of them rode in the same carriage.

Nian Qiaoyue was relatively well-behaved when she was in the carriage. Occasionally, she would lift the curtain to look out, but she pretended not to see anything.

At four quarters past noon, the prime minister's carriage arrived at the city gate.

There were many carriages parked at the city gate, forming a long line. They were the young ladies and young masters from various mansions.

Although the emperor graciously allowed ministers to "bring" their families to observe the hunting expedition, civil officials rarely went. Military generals would arrive at the hunting grounds one day in advance, set up camp, eliminate all potential dangers around, and do a good job of protecting the emperor.

Therefore, it is just a gimmick to allow the young men and young ladies trapped in Beijing for a long time to see the outside world.

The emperor's guard of honor was in the front and had already left the city gate. The royal guards were on full alert and guarding on both sides. The emperor's carriage was surrounded tightly.

Nian Qiaoyue curiously stuck half of her head out, her eyes darting around the street, eager to take in the entire spectacle at once.

They arrived late, so they were at the end of the line. Looking forward, they could hardly see the end of the long line of carriages, which was really shocking. Looking back, the street was crowded with onlookers, who were looking at this neat and orderly team with surprise, excitement, or curiosity.

Nian Qiaoyue's eyes and mouth opened wide, her heart filled with emotion. Such a shocking scene occurred once a year, but she had never participated in it before.

This was her first time to participate in the Mulan Hunt.

In previous years, only princes and young masters accompanied the emperor, but this year the young ladies can also go, so she has the opportunity to witness such a grand occasion.

She retracted her head with a look of unsatisfied intent, and Nian Susu closed his eyes to rest, not seeming curious.

Nian Qiaoyue couldn't help wondering: "Sister, aren't you curious about what's happening outside?"

Nian Susu's chest rose and fell slightly, and she seemed to sigh. She did not open her eyes. "What's so good about it? Aren't they all human?"

With just one sentence, Nian Qiaoyue was silenced and she remained silent.

Nian Susu said that she was not curious, but in fact she could no longer suppress her excitement. However, because Nian Qiaoyue was there, she could not show it and could only pretend to be calm and composed.

It turns out that not everyone can establish a character...

She was suffocating.

When the time came, the carriage team slowly came out of the city gate like a long dragon.

Mulan's hunting location is in the northern suburbs. A full 100 acres of land was enclosed as a royal hunting park. In the hunting park there was an ancient forest with many ferocious and vicious beasts. Although it was full of dangers, it filled the hunters with a desire to conquer and aroused the most primitive murderous intent.

The carriages were close to each other, so the speed was very slow, and it was almost as if the people were leading the horses forward. It took most of the day to reach the northern suburbs hunting ground.

Qin Junyu had been waiting at the entrance of the hunting ground, with several generals following behind him.

The emperor got off the carriage with the help of eunuchs.

Qin Zehai was in the back carriages. As soon as they stopped, he immediately rushed to the front and followed the emperor.

The emperor walked towards Qin Junyu and his group happily.

"Father."

"emperor."

Several people bowed and saluted.

The emperor patted Qin Junyu on the shoulder and said with relief: "Yu'er, thank you for your hard work. You have to arrange so many things in such a short time."

Qin Junyu smiled and said, "It is my great honor to share the worries of my father. How can I feel tired?"

Qin Zehai echoed: "Yes, my brother, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very capable, both civil and military, and has won the hearts of both the emperor and the people. Wouldn't it be easy for him to simply set up a hunting ground?"

When the ministers standing behind Qin Junyu heard this, they immediately smiled and started praising him.

"Your Majesty is right. In previous years, all the procedures of the hunting were handled by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so this year he will be able to handle it with ease."

"How dare Your Highness neglect his duties when working for the Emperor? You have been living almost entirely in the hunting grounds for the past month, which shows how dedicated Your Highness is."

Several generals did not hear the hidden arrow in Qin Zehai's words, but Qin Junyu did.

The virtuous king negated his hard work of almost sleepless nights for a month with just one sentence, and also praised him. And the emperor's biggest taboo is that the prince is too sharp.

This caused the emperor to be suspicious of him and he had evil intentions.

Qin Junyu was disdainful in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He said modestly, "Uncle, you are too kind. I am just an ordinary person and can't be considered a talent. It was only thanks to my father's willingness to give me the opportunity to gain experience and the help of several ministers that I was able to accomplish things so beautifully.

I just hope that I won't let my father down."

The emperor's face turned dark after hearing Qin Zehai's words, but after Qin Junyu's few words, his expression eased a lot.

He laughed several times and looked at Qin Junyu with appreciation, "Yu'er, father was right about you!"

Seeing that his plan failed, Qin Zehai stepped aside with his fists clenched.

"Your Majesty, you have given the Crown Prince so many opportunities to gain experience. When will you let Tian'er learn more skills?" The Queen walked forward with a smile.

"See the Emperor."

Behind the Queen followed Concubine Ning and Concubine Xin. All three had smiles on their faces and their voices were just right, sounding charming yet not pretentious.

There were three thousand beauties in the entire harem for hunting this time, but the emperor only brought these three people, which shows that they are very important to the emperor.

Qin Junyu stepped back consciously.

Every time the emperor praised him or entrusted official business to him, the empress would mention Qin Fengtian. He had become accustomed to it.

It would be wrong for him to agree or disagree at this time.
