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

Nian Susu gradually developed a clear understanding of the words "connections" and "backing".

The queen was under house arrest, and now Concubine Ning was the most senior one in the harem. With just one word from Concubine Ning, her life in the harem was guaranteed. She no longer had to worry about having a hard time facing three thousand beauties after marrying Qin Junyu.

Nian Susu showed his first happy smile of the day, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Your Majesty."

Concubine Ning waved her hand. "Why are you thanking me? The Crown Prince and Guan Qing are close friends. We are a family from now on. Don't be so polite."

Nian Susu blushed and nodded.

The two talked for a while, and then Qin Junyu came to pick them up, saying that Nian Chengyun and Yang Yuerong had asked someone to inquire about the situation.

Concubine Ning helped Nian Susu sit up, and very considerately said, "I left first because of something," leaving the space for the two of them.

Qin Junyu pushed the quilt inwards and sat sideways on the edge of the couch. His eyes were gentle and his tone was soft, as if he was afraid of disturbing her.

"Are you feeling better? Do you want to ask the judge to take your pulse again?"

"No, I'm much better."

Nian Susu knew very well where her "disease" came from. It was the system's punishment. Ordinary medicine was useless for her. She could only endure it, or fight poison with poison, and use the system's props to deal with it.

She used "sleeping pills" to help herself get through the most difficult period. Now she is slowly recovering and is no longer in danger.

But to Qin Junyu who was completely unaware of the situation, she was twitching like she had epilepsy last night, which must have scared him a lot. He looked at her cautiously at this moment.

Qin Junyu nodded, but his deep eyes were filled with thoughts.

After thinking it over, he decided to make things clear.

"The imperial physician said you were too frightened, but I don't believe it. You are not such a timid person. Besides, you have known about Miss Nian's plan for a long time, and even contributed to it. How could you be frightened?"

"The doctor's words may deceive others, but not me."

"Tell me the truth, what happened?"

That night, Qin Junyu thought about voodoo, poison, and theories of ghosts and gods, but in the end he could not come to a conclusion.

Nian Susu felt guilty. She grabbed a corner of the quilt and said sullenly, "What could have happened..."

She was considering what excuse she could use to fool Qin Junyu and avoid him becoming suspicious.

But Qin Junyu was intelligent, foresighted, and good at planning. There was no secret at all in front of him.

"Don't try to find excuses to fool me." When she opened her mouth, Qin Junyu blocked all the words she had prepared back into her stomach with just one sentence.

Nian Susu rolled his eyes and looked at him pitifully.

If it was just a normal fainting she could make up an excuse, but convulsing for ten minutes was too abnormal.

Qin Junyu was defeated and rubbed her head lovingly, "You just woke up, I won't force you, but after a few days when you recover, you must tell me the whole story."

"This way...if something like this happens again in the future, I won't be at a loss as to what to do."

Nian Susu was touched. It turned out that he wanted to know the reason because he was afraid that she would "fall ill" again next time, and he would have no way to deal with it just like the first time.

Qin Junyu didn't know what he was thinking of. His face became a little unnatural. Then he turned his face away with red ears and said awkwardly: "No matter what it is, I will face it with you. Don't worry."

Nian Susu couldn't help laughing, "I know."

At least it gave her some time to think about how to explain this matter to Qin Junyu. Should she tell the truth and give away the system, or make up a flawless lie to deceive him?

Nian Susu couldn't help feeling worried.

Qin Junyu personally sent her back to the prime minister's residence. The luxurious and magnificent carriage driving on Zhuque Street attracted many people to stop and watch.

Nian Susu felt dizzy from the shaking of the carriage. He lifted the curtain and looked out. He could vaguely hear some discussions.

"Is this the carriage of the Eastern Palace? He is indeed the Crown Prince! Even his carriage is so luxurious! It is even more luxurious than the carriage of the Prime Minister of the Nian family."

"Speaking of which, why would the carriage of the Eastern Palace be so brazenly parading on the street? I haven't heard that the Crown Prince wants to make a private visit."

"You don't know this, right? I have some connections in the palace. I heard that the future Crown Princess, Miss Nian, stayed overnight in the palace of Concubine Ning last night! As a result, the carriage from the East Palace arrived today. It must be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who personally sent the Crown Princess back home!"

"Empress Ning!? The most favored Empress Ning in the palace!? Miss Nian has such a good relationship with the Empress in the palace before she even gets married. When she marries into the Eastern Palace, won't she be able to thrive like a fish in water?"

"Don't tell me, it really makes sense. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince likes this Crown Princess, and the Empress in the Palace also likes her. How can life be difficult for her?"

Nian Susu: How come I was eating the melon and suddenly it fell on myself?

She let down the curtain in dismay, leaned back against the wall of the carriage, and muttered, "It's only been one night, and the news has spread outside the palace. How terrifying."

Qin Junyu didn't comment, "As a human being, that's all I have."

Nian Susu agreed very much. After all, she also loved gossip. However, this group of people were so well-informed that she didn't hear anyone talking about Qin Fengtian and Nian Qiaoyue. Also, she didn't hear a single word about the Queen being stripped of her house arrest and Concubine Ning being in power. Their topics always revolved around "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince" and "The Crown Princess", as well as this luxurious carriage.

It seems that the emperor deliberately blocked the news to prevent the shame of the royal family from being spread.

No matter how much those people in the palace loved gossip, they knew what to spread and what not to spread, so the matter concerning Qin Fengtian and Nian Qiaoyue did not leak out at all.

On the contrary, it was Nian Susu. Now the whole Shengjing knew that she was carried by Qin Junyu to the emperor to ask for the imperial physician.

Qin Junyu comforted her: "What they said is not wrong, it is not a rumor."

Nian Susu chuckled twice. There were some things she didn't dare to believe.

Qin Junyu sent her to the prime minister's residence and left without stopping, without even saying goodbye, for fear that Nian Chengyun and Yang Yuerong would catch him and question him.

Nian Susu very much agreed with his slightly "impolite" behavior, because her father and mother did not dare to scold Qin Junyu openly, otherwise they would definitely use her as a shield and secretly criticize Qin Junyu. She did not want to suffer this as the aftereffects of the electric shock had not yet healed.

So when Yang Yuerong summoned her for questioning, she asked Zhihua to refuse and went to ask a doctor to take her pulse, just to pretend.

Nian Chengyun and Yang Yuerong felt sorry for their daughter. She was frightened into fainting by Nian Qiaoyue for no reason. Naturally, they were reluctant to torture her any further. Their heartache for their daughter instantly turned into anger, and they vented it all on Nian Qiaoyue.

Nian Qiaoyue was a criminal, and although she had not yet been sold to a brothel, Nian Chengyun had already removed her name from the family tree. When she was included in the roster of a brothel one day, she would officially be classified as a slave.
