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

“No… no.” Nian Susu hurriedly shook her head, fearing that he would really not say it in the future, so she changed her words and said, “It’s just that I’m a little uncomfortable with this identity for a while.”

"Besides!" She suddenly raised her voice, her panic written all over her face, "We haven't gotten married yet..."

Qin Junyu smiled without saying anything and took her hand again. This time, no matter how she struggled, it was useless.

As they walked along, the servants of the East Palace saw them and stopped what they were doing, lowered their eyes and eyebrows, knelt down and respectfully called out, "Greetings to Your Highness, Greetings to the Crown Princess."

When he arrived at the tea room, Nian Susu's head felt like it was on fire, his ears were buzzing, and his face and ears were hot.

"Sit down, I'll make you some tea." Qin Junyu said, then started to busy himself.

Nian Susu sat opposite him, chin in her hands, watching him make tea seriously and quietly.

Heat the pot, put in the tea, warm the cup, pour high, smell the fragrance...

The exquisite blue and white porcelain tea set became extremely flexible in his hands, as if it had life. Every step was just right. He seemed to know a lot about making tea and his movements were familiar.

The slightly pulled-up sleeves revealed half of the strong forearms; the skin texture seemed to have been carefully carved, and even the protruding blue veins seemed to be the icing on the cake.

His hands were very beautiful, and it was not an exaggeration to say that they were made of jade. However, due to holding the sword for many years, if you look closely at his palms and thumbs, you can see that there are thick calluses on them, but it was nothing serious.

For the first time, Nian Susu found it so interesting to watch people make tea.

It’s just that... this scene seems a bit familiar.

Her smile froze and she began to search her mind for relevant memories. The more she couldn't remember, the more she forced herself to remember.

"Try it." Qin Junyu pushed the teacup to her hand with two fingers.

Nian Susu stared at his hand intently and said with a silly smile: "Hey, this tea is really beautiful."

Qin Junyu raised his eyebrows: "What?"

She came back to her senses and quickly made amends: "Oh no no, I said this hand is really delicious."

She smiled awkwardly and subconsciously brought the teacup to her lips. Qin Junyu opened his mouth and raised his hand to stop her, but the next second, she screamed "Ah" and stuck out her tongue because of the burn.

Qin Junyu: ...

I was just about to say it was too hot and told her not to drink it, but who would have thought she would be so quick.

Nian Susu's tongue was numb from the heat, so he put the teacup farther away.

At this moment, she finally remembered.

The reason why she felt that the scene just now was very familiar was because she had watched Xuan Ji brew tea before! The same steps, the same movements, the same smooth movements, the same beautiful hands!

Her eyes lit up and she felt a sense of joy as if a world of enlightenment had suddenly dawned on her, but no matter how Qin Junyu asked, she refused to say anything.

After the tea was left for a while, it was not so hot anymore. Nian Susu took a sip and immediately felt refreshed. He didn't expect that the tea brewed by Qin Junyu was so delicious.

"If you like it, I'll make tea for you every day." Qin Junyu exhaled towards the tea, took a sip, and looked equally enjoying.

Nian Susu was not interested in the empty promises, thinking that she came to him for serious matters, but she still hadn't told him until now, and her face immediately fell.

When Qin Junyu asked the reason, she told him word for word about her findings and investigation results outside the West Wing. The originally relaxed and joyful atmosphere suddenly became heavy.

He punched the coffee table, causing the tea in the cup to spill out twice. "Using a cat for an experiment is totally unscrupulous!"

Nian Susu nodded in agreement, "Yes, and there are eight of them!"

The two were indignant, got angry at the same time, and calmed down at the same time.

Qin Junyu: "If nothing unexpected happens, it was done by the second Miss Nian."

Nian Susu smiled, "Your Highness thinks the same as I do."

The two looked at each other, as if they could see through each other's thoughts.

Nian Susu sighed deeply, "Nian Qiaoyue went through so much trouble to get Yang Qishuang, and used wild cats for experiments four times. It seems that she is determined to make it a done deal with Qin Fengtian and then threaten him to marry her."

It’s actually easy to guess what Nian Qiaoyue is thinking.

Qin Junyu didn't think so. "Even if Qin Fengtian agreed to marry her with a conscience, the queen would not agree."

She smiled mysteriously, "It's hard to deal with the queen with this kind of implicit threat, but what if...she is pregnant with Qin Fengtian's child?"

Now that he had a child, Qin Fengtian had no choice but to acknowledge him.

If they just slept together, people might scold Nian Qiaoyue for being immoral, unfaithful to husband, and bringing disgrace to the family. But if she was pregnant and Qin Fengtian dared to abandon her, then the rumor would be that Qin Fengtian dared to do it but not to take the responsibility, and "abandoned his wife and child."

Not to mention what the empress would think, the emperor alone would not allow such a thing that would damage the royal family's reputation to happen. At that time, he would personally issue an order to let Qin Fengtian marry Nian Qiaoyue, and the empress would have to agree even if she disagreed.

Qin Junyu looked puzzled, as if he didn't understand what she said, and seemed to be questioning her words - how could Nian Qiaoyue be sure to get pregnant in one go?

Qin Fengtian will not fall for the same trick a second time, and Nian Qiaoyue only has one chance.

Nian Susu stared at him with a half-smile, and there was a hint of shrewd calculation in her charming fox eyes.

"A few days ago, I went to Gray Rock City and found the man named Dama. I asked him what medicine Nian Qiaoyue had stolen that day."

"Da Ma said that Nian Qiao Yue spent real money to buy two kinds of medicine. One is a strong knockout drug, and the other is... a secret medicine from the Western Regions that helps with pregnancy. I heard that you can get pregnant in one try."

The kind that is stolen, needless to say, is Yang Qishuang.

Yangqishuang is rare and precious, so it is normal that Nian Qiaoyue cannot afford it, so she thought of stealing it.

After hearing this, Qin Junyu's first reaction was: "You went to Gray Rock City? Were you in danger? Why didn't you ask me to go with you?"

Nian Susu patted her arms, "What's the danger? I'm fine." She suddenly laughed, "And thanks to you, after the big fuss last time, the two giants at the door didn't dare to stop me this time and just let me pass. They didn't even dare to look at me, let alone bully me."

So his worries were completely unnecessary.

Talking about what happened that day, Nian Susu became interested and started to talk nonstop, having long forgotten the main business.

"Besides, your legend is now circulating in every street and alley in Graystone City!"

"Some say... you are the mayor of Gray Rock City and in charge of the business, so even Bai Zhao dares not offend you and obeys your orders."

"Others say that you are a high-ranking official in the capital, with connections in both the black and white worlds. When you had nothing to do, you took Xiao Meijiao to the black market, where she was picked on by some unknown scum, and you became furious for her!" Nian Susu laughed.

The people of Limestone City come from different regions of the east, west, south and north. They speak with local accents mixed with interesting words, and their gossip is unique.
