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

After such a scene, everyone was worried. But the emperor did not cancel the hunting today, but wanted to set off immediately, hoping to vent his anger in this way.

Among the group, except for the emperor who was in a good mood, everyone else had their own concerns. Who would be in the mood to go hunting? But the emperor wanted to go, so they had to accompany him even if they were unwilling.

Because there was a problem with the imperial horse, Qin Junyu gave his own horse to the emperor and stayed in the camp.

The emperor had no objection. After all, such a big thing had happened and people's hearts needed to be appeased.

The emperor led his mighty army into the woods. The thunderous sound of horse hooves gradually faded away, and the army disappeared from sight.

The girls stood at the door and watched them leave, truly relieved.

They were all terrified when the emperor was around. The saying "living with an emperor is like living with a tiger" was indeed true. In comparison, even the cold and icy Crown Prince seemed much more friendly.

The girls gathered in a group and walked through the gate into the camp.

Qin Junyu and Nian Susu walked at the end.

Nian Susu was preoccupied with his worries. He lowered his head and didn't look at the road. He bumped into a strong chest and the familiar smell of cedar filled his nose.

She rubbed her hot forehead and hissed, "Your Highness, when did you get in the habit of blocking people's way?"

Qin Junyu raised his eyebrows, "It was clearly Miss Nian who bumped into me while walking without looking at the road. Not only did she not apologize, but she also put the blame on me?"

Nian Susu pursed his lips, said sorry, and walked past him.

Qin Junyu was anxious, and took a few steps to her front, "Miss Nian, can you please spare me a moment to talk?"

……

The two walked one after the other to the slope on the east side of the camp.

The slope was covered with weeds, not high, just reaching the ankles. Down the slope, far away, at the end of the green grassland, was a big river, separating the black soil on the opposite side and the green grassland underfoot into two worlds.

Seeing her staring into the distance in a daze, Qin Junyu explained, "Across that river is the territory of the Beirong people."

Nian Susu nodded. She was just wondering how long it would take to get from here to the other side of the river?

She sat down cross-legged.

Qin Junyu was not polite and sat down next to her, even leaning back and lying down with his hands behind his head.

Nian Susu glanced at him sideways, and it felt as if he had returned to the night they spent in Raoping...

On the way to Xisu State, when they stopped in Raoping for a rest, Nian Qiaoyue soiled the carriage with horse manure. She and Qin Junyu slipped away while the carriage was being cleaned.

They were also lying side by side on a piece of grass like this, with the moon hanging high above their heads, bright and clear, and the stars shining, as if the vast universe was right before their eyes.

She asked Qin Junyu if he wanted to be emperor, and he said no.

At that moment, she truly uncovered the most hidden part of his heart, and he told her his secrets without reservation.

The roles were reversed, and when he asked the question, he just asked, "What kind of man do young girls like?"

Thinking about it now, it seems like a lifetime ago.

Nian Susu chuckled softly, lay down on her side, supported her head with her hands and looked at him, unable to stop smiling.

Qin Junyu was curious: "What are you laughing at?"

"Do you remember that night in Raoping?"

He thought for a moment and said, "Remember." Then he added, "You are so brave that you actually asked me if I want to be the emperor. If others hear it, you will be guilty of killing all nine generations of your clan!" He deliberately threatened her.

Nian Susu was not afraid at all, instead he nodded towards him and said, "Then I would like to thank His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for not exposing me!"

Qin Junyu finally couldn't help laughing.

I finally feel a little relieved.

Nian Susu lay down, looking at the endless blue sky, and felt open-minded.

They lay side by side, with smiles of varying depths on their faces, their voices were relaxed and casual, with no order in their pauses and rhythm, as if they were chatting about something unimportant.

"What is the matter that your Highness has called me here for?"

"I want to say thank you to Miss Nian. If you didn't think that the Crazy Powder contained a large amount of safflower, you could check if there was any residue on your hands to confirm who the culprit was. I would have to go to great lengths to find clues. Miss Nian helped me a lot this time."

"Oh? Then Your Highness must thank me very much."

"What thank-you gift would you like, Miss Nian?"

"Um……"

Nian Susu suddenly had an idea and knew what he wanted.

"I need your Highness to do me a favor..."

……

As the sun was setting, the emperor returned to the camp with a rich harvest.

Large and small fires had been set up in the center of the camp, with sturdy iron racks on top of them, waiting for the emperor to return from hunting so that they could roast the animal meat.

After half a day of fierce competition with the beasts, the emperor and the ministers and princes who went with him had forgotten the unhappiness of the day. They all entered the camp with smiles on their faces and chatted, and then returned to their tents to wash the blood off their bodies, preparing to attend the celebratory banquet tonight.

The palace servants dragged the bloody prey to the back of the camp to deal with it. On the way, they met a few girls and almost scared them to vomit.

Nian Susu didn't feel anything. She went to Nian Qiaoyue's tent and told her that she had to sit with her tonight. She didn't tell her the reason, but only warned her that if she didn't want to be killed, she had to listen to her.

The words were a bit harsh, but they were enough to scare Nian Qiaoyue.

When it was time for the night banquet, Nian Qiaoyue was waiting outside Nian Susu's tent, ready to go with her.

After all, there weren't many people she could rely on in the hunting ground.

She had wanted to comfort Qin Fengtian during the day, but was kicked out.

Qin Fengtian will be sent back to Beijing tomorrow. The purpose of her coming here was to have more contact with Qin Fengtian. Now with this result, how can she implement her plan?

Nian Qiaoyue felt very uneasy and wanted to ask Nian Susu for help.

Nian Susu went out and was not surprised to see her. He glanced at her and said indifferently, "Let's go."

Nian Qiaoyue followed her, twirling her handkerchief, hesitating whether to speak or not. Seeing that they were about to reach the main tent, she knew if she didn't say anything, she would miss the chance.

"Sister!" she suddenly shouted.

Nian Susu stopped and looked back at her, frowning slightly, and asked unhappily, "What's wrong?"

Nian Qiaoyue forced a smile that was uglier than crying, "Sister, I want to ask you for a favor."

"Beg me again?!" Nian Susu collapsed. "Why... do you come to me for help whenever you are in trouble? Are we really that close?"

The funny thing is, she agreed every time, because of that broken system!

Nian Qiaoyue looked at her pitifully, "Sister, please help me one more time. Just put me in the team that will take Prince Qing back to the capital tomorrow, and I promise to behave myself and not cause any trouble!"

Nian Susu sneered, "When you came here, you begged me to bring you here, and now you're begging me to send you back. Are you bored?"

"No help!" She was furious and turned away.

A long-lost cold mechanical voice sounded: [Warning! The host cannot refuse any request from Nian Qiaoyue! ]
