Many girls gathered around to watch the fun and pointed fingers at the two of them. Most of them stood on Nian Susu's side, because Nian Qiaoyue usually did all kinds of bad things and had a bad reputation, so when something happened, they subconsciously thought that Nian Qiaoyue was up to something bad again.

Nian Susu didn't even need to argue, as many people had already spoken up for her.

"What I saw was Miss Nian bumping into it and falling into the river. Miss Nian was flying a kite at the time, so she had no time to care about her."

"That's right, Miss Nian didn't even notice anyone behind her. Instead, it was Miss Nian II. She knew that Miss Nian was pulling the kite string and backing away, but she didn't dodge and waited for someone to bump into her. Isn't it obvious that she did it on purpose?"

"Miss Nian made such a big fuss, isn't it just to attract the attention of the three princes?"

The girls spoke harshly and mercilessly because they looked down on Nian Qiaoyue and did not respect her from the bottom of their hearts.

Xiao Yunzheng ran over with the kite string dropped, glaring at Nian Qiaoyue, "Nian Qiaoyue, are you blind or stupid? You knew Lingling couldn't see anyone behind you, yet you didn't know how to get out of the way!"

Nian Qiaoyue blushed and took the opportunity to hide in Qin Fengtian's arms, "Your Highness, I really didn't mean it. It was clearly my sister who pushed me into the river, but they all said it was my fault. You have to make the decision for me."

After saying that, tears started to flow.

Qin Fengtian suppressed his nausea and tried to push the person away, but he found that Nian Qiaoyue was tightly wrapped around his waist, with all her weight on his chest, so he couldn't push her away.

Nian Susu followed suit, leaning against Qin Junyu's arms, holding his forehead with his hand, his eyes blurred, "Oh~ Your Highness, I feel so dizzy, it must be that my sister hit me in the water just now that I got hurt, Your Highness, you must take care of it for me~"

Pretentious and sarcastic.

Everyone around her could see that she was in the same grade as Qiao Yue, and they couldn't help laughing for a moment, and the laughter rang out one after another.

Qin Junyu smiled dotingly, "Okay, I will definitely seek justice for you."

The two of them cooperated with each other, and Nian Qiaoyue was so angry that her face turned blue and red, like a color palette.

Qin Guanqing shook his head helplessly and smiled: "Miss Nian is still so naughty."

Although it was an exaggerated imitation, it did not feel clumsy at all. With that beautiful face, saying such words actually made people feel pity for her.

With this obvious contrast, the more Qin Fengtian looked at Nian Qiaoyue, the more he disliked her.

He was even a little jealous of Qin Junyu. Why did Nian Susu throw himself into his arms and welcome him with a smile, but was so disgusted with him and avoided him as much as possible?

Nian Qiaoyue wanted to act like a spoiled child and ask Qin Fengtian to speak for her, but she didn't expect Qin Fengtian to push her away and said coldly, "Second Miss Nian, you should apologize to Miss Nian. Make a big deal out of a small matter. Otherwise, it will be bad for your reputation if it gets out."

Compared to Nian Qiaoyue's reputation, he was more afraid of people spreading rumors about him. If he saved her today, they would make up a love story about her tomorrow.

Qin Fengtian doesn't want to have anything to do with Nian Qiaoyue anymore.

Qin Junyu helped Nian Susu stand up, handed him a handkerchief, and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

Nian Susu took the handkerchief, wiped the water off her face, and whispered, "Don't worry, Your Highness. No matter how uncomfortable I am, I will hold on until she apologizes to me before I collapse."

The corners of Qin Junyu's mouth rose slightly, and he felt that she was more and more lovely.

He looked at Nian Qiaoyue, his expression no longer gentle and doting, but cold, "Second Miss Nian, you tried to frame Miss Nian, but fortunately everyone had sharp eyes and was not fooled by you. How dare you do such a despicable thing in front of me, how do you think I should punish you?"

Qin Guanqing crossed his arms across his chest, smiling, ready to watch the show.

Nian Qiaoyue slumped on the ground, feeling uncomfortable as she was soaked all over. Even Qin Fengtian refused to protect her. She suddenly felt as if she was in an ice cave, and her whole body began to tremble. She glanced at Qin Junyu with trembling hands, and was forced to nod her head at the cold gaze.

"Your Highness, I...I..." She originally wanted to make Nian Susu the target of public criticism, but she never expected things to turn out like this.

He hesitated for a long time but couldn't explain it clearly.

Nian Susu really couldn't stand feeling wet. When the wind blew, his wet clothes stuck to his body, making him feel uncomfortable and cold.

She rubbed her arms and pretended to be magnanimous, "Sister Qiaoyue, kowtow to me three times, and we'll let this go."

She knew that Nian Qiaoyue would not agree, so before she could say anything, she hurriedly added, "If she refuses, then let Your Highness deal with her according to Liuli's laws."

Nian Susu said righteously, "Your Highness, according to the laws of our dynasty, how should the crime of false accusation be dealt with?"

Qin Junyu: "Anyone who fabricates facts without proof, frames others, and accuses the superior with the inferior, or the elder with the young, shall be hanged."

"Sister Qiao Yue, come and choose one." Nian Susu's smile was sinister.

Nian Qiaoyue was so frightened that she shuddered. Wouldn't hanging mean taking her life? After weighing the pros and cons, she decisively chose to kowtow and apologize.

In full view of everyone, Nian Qiaoyue rolled and crawled in front of Nian Susu. Her wet dress rolled into the mud and suddenly became muddy.

She didn't care about her image and kowtowed three times with a sincere look in her eyes: "Sister, I know I was wrong, please forgive me."

A look of contempt appeared on Qin Fengtian and everyone else's faces.

Xiao Yunzheng smacked her lips and sighed, "What a face."

Nian Susu leaned over and patted her cold little face, "I'll forgive you this time, but if you do this again next time, you'll suffer the consequences."

Nian Qiaoyue nodded hurriedly, fearing that the King of Hell next to her would order her to be hanged.

The matter ended here. The outing was out of the question, so Qin Junyu sent Nian Susu back home to change clothes.

Zhihua and Jingzhe were originally going to go back home with them, but Nian Susu didn't want to spoil their fun, so he asked them to stay and fly kites and go back home before dark.

The two playful children's hearts perked up again after hearing this. Zhihua confirmed again and again that Nian Susu was not injured before she felt relieved.

As soon as Qin Junyu and Nian Susu left, the crowd dispersed in twos and threes and continued to enjoy the scenery. Their good mood was not affected by Nian Qiaoyue.

Nian Qiaoyue pestered Qin Fengtian to send her back, otherwise she would pull his arm and not let go. The latter felt embarrassed and had to sign the agreement.

Xiao Yunzheng and Qin Guanqing were left looking at each other.

Qin Guanqing touched the back of his head and tried to find something to say to ease the awkwardness. "Miss Xiao, is your brother doing well recently? I heard that he hasn't been to court for more than half a month. Is he feeling better now?"

The two were actually not that familiar with each other. They had only met a few times and had hardly exchanged a few words. If they had to say there was any connection, it was that they had a lot of mutual friends.

Xiao Yunzheng didn't think much about it, and shrugged and replied: "Looking at his condition, I guess he won't get better even if he lies down for another half a month. Even my playful second brother has started to learn how to handle military affairs, so you can imagine how serious the situation is."
