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

Nian Susu was gasping for breath, and when he looked up, his pale little face had turned red, but his lips were still white.

Li Yaoyuan put down her clothes, tucked the quilt for her, and asked gently, "Do you want to sleep a little longer?"

She shook her head and pretended to get up. Li Yaoyuan quickly supported her, put a soft pillow under her back, pulled the quilt up to cover her chest, and then sat down on the edge of the bed.

Nian Susu looked out through the window. The dim sunset light was not dazzling. Instead of feeling lonely as the night was approaching, it made people feel at peace.

She estimated that it was dinner time now, and it was just after breakfast when Wang Yuejiao came to make trouble, so she slept for so long.

Glancing down at her ill-fitting clothes, she asked, "Where's His Highness?"

Since Li Yaoyuan knew she was here and did not ask the reason when she woke up, it must be Qin Junyu who called her here, and he may have revealed something about yesterday's situation to her.

That's why she dared to ask the question so directly.

Li Yaoyuan did not have much emotional ups and downs. She just told her that Qin Junyu had gone down the mountain and asked her to take good care of her before leaving.

Nian Susu couldn’t tell whether he felt disappointed or happy.

She was disappointed that he didn't wait until she woke up before leaving, but she was happy that he was thoughtful and considerate and asked Li Yaoyuan to come and accompany her.

Seeing that she was in a low mood, Li Yaoyuan added, "Before I came, it was His Highness who was guarding you. He originally intended to wait for you to wake up and send you back to the meditation room before leaving, but someone from the East Palace came and asked him to go back for an urgent matter, so he had no choice but to entrust you to me."

Nian Susu understood, but couldn't help wondering: "Zhizhi, don't you have anything to ask me?"

She didn't know how much Qin Junyu had told Li Yaoyuan, but she was sure that he hadn't told her everything.

Although Li Yaoyuan was an intelligent person, she could not think of everything. She trusted herself so much that she came when Qin Junyu called her without asking any questions. She did not care about anything else but whether her illness could be cured quickly. She was worried that it would be bad for her health if she stayed here.

If she asked, she would tell.

Li Yaoyuan smiled and shook her head, "You don't have to tell me about your relationship with His Highness. If you need help, just ask.

If you need someone to talk to, I'm willing to listen. If you don't want to talk, I won't force you."

Nian Susu's eyes turned red instantly. She opened her arms and pouted in grievance. Li Yaoyuan immediately understood what she meant. She came forward, hugged her and patted her back gently.

"Zhizhi, you are so nice. The most worthwhile thing in my life is making a friend like you."

"Silly girl." Li Yaoyuan couldn't help laughing. Although she was refuting her words, it was not difficult to hear the joy in her voice. "You have many worthwhile things in your life. I am most grateful to be your friend."

She buried her head in Li Yaoyuan's neck and suddenly thought, if Xiao Jianting had not been arranged to marry by the emperor, it would be great. Li Yaoyuan deserves to be loved and she deserves happiness.

Li Yaoyuan had no idea what she was thinking and thought her tears were a sign of her weakness due to her illness.

The two talked for a while, and then Nian Susu suggested returning to the Zen temple.

Li Yaoyuan went back to the Zen room and got the cloak, wrapped her up inside and out, and then took her out with peace of mind.

From the time Nian Susu woke up to the time she left, she never saw Miaojue again. She didn't know whether he was busy with other things or had received someone's order not to disturb her.

Li Yaoyuan couldn't help nagging as she led her along, "You are weak and prone to catching colds and fevers. You should be more careful. Why does it happen again and again?"

"When you are sick, you are the only one who suffers, and you make those who care about you worried. Why don't you take care of your body?"

"I was the one who looked after you at Juxiang Garden last time, and I will take care of you this time too. If it happens again, I will just leave you alone. No matter how hot or cold, thirsty or hungry you are, I will ignore you!"

After saying that, he really got angry and deliberately pinched Nian Susu's palm, but the force was not very strong.

Nian Susu laughed out loud, took her arm and gave in, "Oh, I know I was wrong, dear sister, please stop scolding me."

Li Yaoyuan wrinkled her nose and snorted twice, as if to forgive her.

Nian Susu smiled brightly, his hands and feet were cold, but his heart was warm.

Back at the Zen temple, the two chatted and laughed, not noticing that there was someone in the yard.

It was Li Yaoyuan who noticed it first. Her smile slowly faded and she pushed Nian Susu to remind her to look over there.

Nian Susu thought someone was coming to cause trouble again, but when he looked sideways he saw Qin Wenyuan standing under the tree with a stern face.

"The fifth prince?" She couldn't help but wonder.

Li Yaoyuan knew that it had nothing to do with her, but she was still worried about Nian Susu.

She knew that the Fifth Prince had called Nian Susu to grind ink a few days ago, and it took him two hours. She didn't believe that it was unintentional, and she didn't believe that it was a deliberate targeting... She couldn't think of a reason.

The Fifth Prince was only eleven years old and had not had much contact with Nian Susu. Why would he embarrass a girl he was not familiar with and had no ties with?

If there is any unknown conflict between the two of them, then they cannot be left alone together.

The two walked over together, and after the greetings, Li Yaoyuan pulled Nian Susu behind him, and said in a slightly tough tone, "Fifth Prince, Miss Nian is sick and has a fever. It would be bad if she passed her illness to you. Can we talk about it after she recovers?"

Qin Wenyuan glanced at her indifferently, frowning slightly, "Miss Li, I have something to say to Miss Nian, please leave now."

Although Li Yaoyuan wanted to protect Nian Susu, she also adhered to the rules. Qin Wenyuan was the prince, and she would definitely listen to his words. She hesitated for a moment.

Nian Susu didn't want to make things difficult for her. Besides, Qin Wenyuan was just a little kid. At most, he could grind the ink for another two hours.

She pulled him back and said, "Zhizhi, don't worry. I want to talk to the Fifth Prince. You can go back to your room first."

Qin Wenyuan remained calm, as if he had expected this result.

Li Yaoyuan moved her lips, seeming to want to say something but stopped herself.

Finally, she said, "In this case, I hope the Fifth Prince will understand that Miss Nian is still ill and is not fit for the wind. Please don't chat for too long."

Qin Wenyuan nodded patiently, which was rare for him.

Li Yaoyuan returned to her room.

“Cough, cough, cough…” Nian Susu coughed twice, his face as pale as paper, as weak as a willow in the wind.

"Fifth Prince, would you like to sit in my room?"

She really didn't want to be blown by the wind in the yard. She felt groggy and couldn't even stand steadily. She was afraid of catching a cold and having a fever again, which would cause trouble for Li Yaoyuan.

Qin Wenyuan pondered for a moment and did not refuse.

The two went into the room to talk.

Qin Wenyuan knelt on the futon. Nian Susu made tea for him and turned to make charcoal.

He looked around with a fairly pleasant expression until he saw the quilt in a heap on the bed and the pillows lying all over the place, and then his little face wrinkled up.

Looking at the dressing table again, gold hairpins, jewelry, rouge and powder were piled messily on the table. It was not clean or tidy at all. How did it look like a girl's?
