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

Nian Qiaoyue half-raised herself on the bed and looked out, and could catch a glimpse of a skirt embroidered with a phoenix pattern.

The Queen's voice was not loud, just loud enough for Nian Qiaoyue to hear.

"Tian'er, don't you know who you are? You are the master, the prince, and they are just a bunch of lowly servants, serving you servilely. You are a noble person, how can you hang out with them?"

Nian Qiaoyue lay back slowly. She didn't need to eavesdrop deliberately, as the Queen was speaking for her.

She looked at the roof with empty eyes. She didn't want to listen, but the sound inevitably entered her ears.

Qin Fengtian lowered his head and said timidly: "I know I was wrong, and I will remember your teachings."

Every time the queen tried to reason with him and talk about the rules, she felt helpless.

"What's the use of knowing your mistakes? You have to change them."

"You usually love to play and have fun with the palace maids and eunuchs, and your mother never turns a blind eye to your behavior. But things like what happened today must never happen again."

She was referring to Nian Qiaoyue resting on Qin Fengtian's bed.

Qin Fengtian seemed to understand and nodded.

It is futile to say more to a six or seven-year-old child, as he may not really understand the meaning.

The queen's eyes softened and she patted his shoulder, "Good boy, you will not be wrong if you listen to your mother."

"Then mother, can I ask you a question?" Qin Fengtian blinked.

Nian Qiaoyue suddenly realized that their voices were getting farther and farther away. At last, she could faintly hear that Qin Fengtian was asking about the baby in her belly, but she had no idea how the queen answered.

After a few days, Nian Qiaoyue moved out of the palace maids' dormitory and moved into a small side hall on the west side. Although it was a little small, it was better than living with Hezhu and the others, who looked down upon her and were bullied every day.

Nian Qiaoyue didn't have much luggage, but Qiuyao insisted on helping her pack it, saying, "You are not in good health, you shouldn't work hard."

Hezhu, Chunhuan and Xueying were each beaten with twenty boards and could hardly walk properly. When they heard that Nian Qiaoyue was going to move away, they hurriedly dropped what they were doing and went back to find out what was going on.

The three of them were eavesdropping furtively outside the door.

Nian Qiaoyue sat beside the bed while Qiuyao was busy running around.

Chunhuan said disdainfully: "She hasn't even become the master yet, but she already wants people to serve her. If she gives birth to the child, won't Xiangru Palace be trampled underfoot?"

Xueying sneered: "As for her baby, it's still a question whether it can be born safely."

They spoke without reservation, not afraid of being heard by Nian Qiaoyue, but when Nian Qiaoyue looked at them, she retracted her head like a guilty thief, hid behind the door and dared not say a word.

Qiuyao comforted her, "Ignore them. Your belly will get bigger in a few months, and you won't be able to live without someone to serve you. But you have a special status, and the Queen can't send her to the palace to serve you. It's the most suitable for me to go with you."

She folded the clothes, turned around and smiled at Nian Qiaoyue, as if she really didn't care.

Nian Qiaoyue lowered her head and rubbed her handkerchief, feeling depressed. It was not because of what the three people outside the door said, but because she was not sure what the queen meant.

The Queen asked her to move out and ordered Qiuyao to take care of her during her pregnancy, which was enough to show that the Queen cared about her child.

However, the Queen did not tell Qin Fengtian the truth, nor did she intend to make her a concubine. What would he do after the child was born?

Nian Qiaoyue couldn't guess what the queen was thinking and could only let her own imagination run wild.

Qiuyao packed her luggage and helped her up. "What's wrong? Are you not happy when I asked you to leave?"

"No." Nian Qiaoyue forced a smile, "Let's go."

After they went out, Hezhu and the other two had already disappeared. Nian Qiaoyue didn't want to argue with them at this time, but sooner or later, she would make those who had bullied her pay back double.

……

Yuhang County.

After seven days of continuous travel, we finally arrived in Yuhang in early November.

Although he went to the south of the Yangtze River in a hidden identity, he had written a letter to the local officials in Yuhang before leaving and had arranged everything.

As soon as Qin Junyu and his group arrived at the city gate, someone came to greet them immediately.

Nian Susu, Xiao Yunzheng and Luo Yuanxiang were sitting in the carriage, all three of them were a little excited. Yuhang County was the most prosperous and lively place in the Jiangnan area, and it has always been known as "Little Shengjing".

They also heard that Yuhang's landscape is picturesque, the scenery is beautiful and the people are even more beautiful. The women in the Jiangnan water town are both gentle and charming. They really want to see it for themselves. They are also beauties, so what is so special about the women in Jiangnan?

Xiao Yunzheng could not wait to lift the curtain and stick half of her head out, but unfortunately they had not yet entered the city. The carriage was parked at the city gate, and outside were some soldiers guarding the city.

Xiao Yunzheng stretched her neck back angrily.

Luo Yuanxiang, who was sitting opposite her, also leaned her head to look outside, but she was not looking at the beautiful scenery, she was looking at Qin Junyu.

Qin Junyu and Qin Guanqing were talking to the governor of Yuhang County.

Qin Junyu briefly explained the purpose of his visit and his future plans. Qin Guanqing also asked him to help hide his identity. During the days in Yuhang, he called them by the surname "Xiao".

The county magistrate was a perceptive man and immediately understood what it meant. He called him "Master Xiao" and "Second Master Xiao" very smoothly.

"Your Highness." The county governor lowered his voice and moved closer. "Due to the time constraints, I was unable to find a suitable place to live. I can only ask Your Highness and the prince to live in my idle house. I wonder if Your Highness..."

The county magistrate wiped his sweat and swallowed his saliva. He had received many difficult guests, but he had not met many noble royal relatives. This Crown Prince seemed to be unkind. If he turned out to be another difficult one, he might even lose his job.

Qin Junyu glanced at him, and he was so scared that he wanted to kneel down, but Qin Guanqing held him up, "Hey! Lord Chen, you are the parent official of Yuhang, and we are just ordinary young masters, how can you kneel down to us?"

County Magistrate Chen said quickly, "Yes, yes, Mr. Xiao is right. It must be because the weather is too cold. My legs are stiff and I can't stand." He smiled awkwardly.

Under the panicked gaze of County Magistrate Chen, Qin Junyu said calmly, "Well, I'll do as you say."

He turned back to lead the horse, saying, "Lead the way."

Qin Guanqing smiled and patted his shoulder: "Don't be nervous, Lord Chen. My brother and I are both easy to talk to."

With Qin Guanqing's words of comfort, County Magistrate Chen's heart finally settled down. Otherwise, he would have been frightened awake even if he fell asleep tonight, trying to figure out what these two gentlemen meant.

County Magistrate Chen wiped his sweat, waved his hand to gather his subordinates, and a group of people walked in front to lead the way.

The carriage swayed towards them, and Luo Yuanxiang lowered the curtain, looking thoughtful.

They were too far away to hear what they said, but she knew that the man who took them into the city was very respectful.
