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

He had never seen Li Yaoyuan dressed so brightly, let alone seen her so playful and cute. He was mesmerized for a moment, with a faint smile on his face.

Even when Li Yaoyuan noticed someone at the gate and her eyes slowly fell on him, he didn't notice.

Li Yaoyuan was stunned, the smile on her face froze, her hands shook uncontrollably, the melon ladle in her hand tilted, and all the water in the ladle poured into the roots of the flower.

She quickly moved the ladle away, but it was too late to save the flower. The flower was destined not to live long.

Clivia is drought-resistant but water-resistant. It is prone to black rot in overly humid conditions. She only watered the flowers once every half a month, but she didn't expect that this watering would directly kill the flowers.

Li Yaoyuan looked solemnly as she watched the water being absorbed by the soil.

There were footsteps approaching from behind. Her back stiffened, her hands on her knees clenched tightly, and she didn't dare to look back at him.

"Yao Yuan." Xiao Jianting's voice was hoarse and he was also very nervous.

Li Yaoyuan continued watering the flowers as if nothing had happened, but her mood was not as cheerful as before.

In fact, she felt a little resentful towards Xiao Jianting in her heart. If he had not hinted to the emperor again and again, the emperor would not have let him take her as a concubine, and the situation today would not have happened.

It seemed that he was the one who caused her own tragedy, but she really couldn't hate him.

She was now in disrepute, while he was a young general with a rising reputation. He had been away in the south of the Yangtze River for more than two months, which was enough time for him to see his heart clearly, but after returning to the capital, he was still determined to marry her.

It would be a lie to say that she wasn't moved by his sincerity, but she was no longer able to respond to his feelings.

Li Yaoyuan pretended to be calm, speaking in a calm and distant tone, "Mr. Xiao, the wedding is in a dozen days. It is against the rules for us to meet in private. Please go back."

"Do you hate me?" Xiao Jianting asked.

"If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have to suffer this humiliation..."

A concubine, who enters the marriage hall on the same day as the main wife, is destined not to receive her husband's love and care from the first day of marriage, and will never be able to hold her head up in the mansion.

What's more, his wife is Wang Yuejiao. They all know very well what kind of person Wang Yuejiao is. She will not have a good life after marriage.

Hearing this, Li Yaoyuan's eyes were filled with tears. She put down the melon gourd, stood up and turned to look at him. She sneered: "Since you know, why did you come to see me again, Mr. Xiao? Do you want me to forgive you?"

Veins bulged on Xiao Jianting's forehead, his fists clenched, and his heart ached.

Although he had been mentally prepared, he still felt uncomfortable when he heard her admit it herself.

Li Yaoyuan's eyes turned red, and she took a few steps back, deliberately keeping a distance from him, and said sarcastically: "Mr. Xiao, you got what you wanted. The emperor agreed to let you take me as a concubine. What else are you dissatisfied with?"

"Yao Yuan, I...it was not my original intention to make you my concubine. The emperor misunderstood my intention, so..."

"Enough!" Li Yaoyuan interrupted him, "I don't care what happened."

She raised her eyes, her face was cold, "I will follow Mr. Xiao's wishes and marry into the Xiao family. Mr. Xiao, don't worry."

She resolutely turned her back, tears immediately bursting out. She bit her lip and tried to make her voice sound normal, "Mr. Xiao, please go back. If the Wang family knew that you came to see me, it would not be good for anyone."

Xiao Jianting wanted to say something, but she had no intention of listening.

He reached out to pull her, but she shook him off.

Before Xiao Jianting left, he promised her: "Yao Yuan, although you are marrying me as a concubine, I promise to treat you well for the rest of my life and never let you be bullied."

Li Yaoyuan squatted in the flower garden, hugged her knees and cried for a long time.

……

As night falls, the weather in mid-March is no longer very cold. There is a faint breath of spring, and the breeze blows, bringing the scent of flowers and grass, refreshing the heart.

Nian Susu stood in front of the window, staring at the bright moon outside in a daze.

It's spring again, and she has unknowingly adapted to the life here. Except for some minor habits that are difficult to change, she is almost no different from the ancients.

From being fearless and rebellious at the beginning to being cautious and careful now, she is assimilated by the feudal dynasty every day.

She even rarely used the blame-taking system, because Nian Qiaoyue had been very well behaved during this period and had not gotten into any trouble, so she did not need to take the blame.

Apart from worrying about Li Yaoyuan, she had almost no other worries. The more dull the days became, the more uneasy she felt. Would God want to give her a big surprise?

The system could hear her thoughts and jumped out at the right time.

[Host, are you calling me? ]

Nian Susu sighed, closed the window, crawled into bed and closed his eyes.

Nian Susu: I didn’t call you, go to bed and don’t disturb me.

[I thought the host missed me, boohoo…]

Nian Susu: Are you too smart now? I want a tutorial on system degradation.

[No! I already have human consciousness and emotions. I can still chat with you when you are bored. Isn't that good? ]

[There is no tutorial for system degradation, but I might be able to help you check something else.] The cold mechanical voice laughed "hehehe", the sound was stuttering, and it was even colder than the sound of reading a text in the classroom at 7 o'clock in the morning.

"Human-machine system." She couldn't help but complain out loud.

Nian Susu turned over. There was a voice in his head that kept buzzing and he couldn't fall asleep.

Nian Su Su: Then I would like to learn how Pangu closed the sky and the earth, how Nuwa destroyed humans, how Houyi shot down all the suns, how Jingwei filled up the earth, how Nuwa poked the sky apart, how Dayu opened the floodgates to release water, how Darwin proposed the theory of degeneration, and how a comet hit the earth.

【…】

The conversation between the human and the AI ​​was once again interrupted by the AI's silence.

Nian Susu said with disdain and sarcasm: You said you were chatting with me, but you couldn't keep up with me after just a few sentences. You should practice more.

【…】

Everything was quiet, and no one responded to her.

Suddenly, there was a muffled sound from the inner room, like something falling on the floor.

Nian Susu sat up suddenly, took out the dagger from under the pillow and held it in her hand. She put on her shoes in the dark, got out of bed, and approached the screen cautiously.

A tall figure can be vaguely seen behind the screen, standing there quietly.

A figure suddenly flashed through Nian Susu’s mind—Qin Junyu.

But on second thought, Qin Junyu didn't seem like the kind of person who would climb through the window in the middle of the night.

The worry that had not been put down yet was lifted up again.

The person behind the screen moved, and teleported in front of her. He grabbed her wrist holding the dagger with one hand and covered her mouth with the other, forcing her to retreat repeatedly with disorderly steps until her back hit the pillar and she stopped.

She finally found a foothold. If she stepped back a little more, her feet would not be able to keep up and she would fall.

"Uuuuuuu..."

Nian Susu struggled and tried to stab him with the dagger, but those big hands were so strong that he couldn't break free.

She opened the system's backpack without hesitation.
