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

Nian Susu seemed to be thinking deeply, "What happened next? Do you know why she left with you?"

Although it was Xiao Jianting who took advantage of Su Yue, she didn't want what happened to Luo Yuanxiang to happen again. If Su Yue wanted to use Xiao Jianting to do something, it would be a loss.

Xiao Jianting took a sip of wine to moisten his throat, and then continued, "She said she had seen me before. When I went to Jiangnan to suppress bandits, my father received me. She saw me from a distance and remembered me."

"She didn't know why I went to the brothel to pick girls, but she felt that following me was better than being in the brothel, so she chose me without hesitation."

"And Su Yue also told me that her poor health was not caused by congenital deficiency, but by the medicine she took herself, in order to avoid having to receive customers."

Nian Susu understood. No wonder her face was so unnaturally pale and she could fall down at the slightest breeze. It turned out that she had ruined her body.

These words were said by Su Yue and Xiao Jianting. They didn't know what the situation was at the time, but it was always better to be careful.

Qin Junyu also reminded him to be careful, and Xiao Jianting said he knew what was going on.

He checked Su Yue's background and found it to be true, otherwise he would not have kept a person of unknown origin around him.

Nian Susu felt relieved after hearing this, but then he thought of another person.

"Then...what about Miss Yu?"

Xiao Jianting's expression did not change much, instead he felt relieved, "I made it clear to her before returning to Beijing. I will not bother her anymore. She can live her life in peace."

This was something Nian Susu had not expected. Xiao Jianting brought Su Yue back to the capital to protect Yu Yue from being discovered. Now that the emperor has agreed to let him take Su Yue as a concubine, everyone believes that he stayed in Wu County for Su Yue, and Yu Yue's danger has been eliminated.

Xiao Jianting was so persistent in the past, wanting to prove that Yu Yue was Li Yaoyuan and wanted to stay with Yu Yue. No matter how he was persuaded, she refused to leave. Why did he let go now? He also promised that he would never bother her again.

Nian Susu always felt that it was not illogical, but she didn't ask any more questions.

The waiter brought a few side dishes, and the three of them ate and chatted.

Qin Junyu and Xiao Jianting had more topics to talk about, and Nian Susu was listening most of the time.

When talking about his future plans, Xiao Jianting said that he was going to apply to the emperor for permission to garrison in the border areas, and he would not return to Beijing unless it was an urgent matter.

They all understood why Xiao Jianting did this. He couldn't let go of Li Yaoyuan, and Shengjing was full of memories of the two of them. He wanted to leave here, which also showed that he wanted to let go of the past and live a new life.

Nian Susu was very happy that he had this awareness, but how could it be so easy to just leave?

"Where are Miss Su and Miss Wang? You can't take them with you to the border, right?"

But it was not good to leave the two of them in Shengjing. Putting aside other things, this was extremely unfortunate for a woman. Whether it was Su Yue who came back with him voluntarily, or Wang Yuejiao who was forced to marry him, they were all innocent.

There is a reason why Wang Yuejiao has been asking for a divorce.

Xiao Jianting seemed to have already made a plan.

"Su Yue, wait a few months, I will send her away with the excuse that I am tired of her, and give her some money, and she will be free."

"As for Miss Wang, before I leave, I will ask the Emperor to write a letter of divorce and let her regain her freedom."

If it weren't for the fact that this marriage was arranged by the emperor's decree and he couldn't divorce on his own, he would have divorced Wang Yuejiao long ago and wouldn't have made her suffer for half a year.

"This is good for everyone." Nian Susu sighed. Everyone got what they wanted, and Xiao Jianting, who caused all this, would get the punishment he deserved.

The three of them were feeling a little heavy-hearted, without any joy of reuniting with good friends. Xiao Jianting came back this time in preparation for their permanent separation next time.

This is Xiao Jianting's decision. Qin Junyu will not influence him, but he still feels reluctant.

"Let's not talk about me anymore, let's talk about you guys." Xiao Jianting changed the subject, trying to make the atmosphere more relaxed, "You guys were going to get married at the end of May, and it's already February, there are still three months left, have you prepared everything?"

Xiao Jianting had been married before, so he knew that there were many procedures to go through and the etiquette was complicated. Thinking back on it now, he felt a headache and upset.

It may also be related to the fact that he did not marry the person he loved. A marriage between two people who love each other, no matter how tedious or complicated it is, is a joyful one.

Nian Susu left all the work to Yang Yuerong, so she had no idea what the current progress was. Faced with this question, she could only smile and hail it off.

Qin Junyu was different. He even memorized the etiquette.

Nian Su Su was a little embarrassed.

Both of them knew Nian Susu's personality. Xiao Jianting did not make things difficult for her and asked about the affairs of the court again. Nian Susu had no way of getting a word in.

An hour later, Xiao Jianting and Qin Junyu left the restaurant reluctantly.

The two said goodbye, and Qin Junyu sent Nian Susu back home.

Zhongcui Palace.

Qin Zehai sneaked into the palace through the window of the Queen's bedroom. There was no light in the inner room, it was pitch black, and there seemed to be people talking outside. He carefully avoided the table and the lighthouse, sneaked over, and hid behind the curtain.

"If you need money, go to the Ministry of Revenue. Don't be stingy. Yu'er is the prince, and his wedding must not be underestimated." It was the emperor's voice.

The Queen responded, "Yes, I will send a rough estimate of the required equipment to the Ministry of Revenue in the next few days. I will purchase it after the Emperor has reviewed it."

"Yes. I always trust the Queen in her work."

Qin Zehai pricked up his ears and heard these few words, probably discussing Qin Junyu's marriage.

A quarter of an hour later, the emperor finally left. Qin Zehai was glad that he did not stay overnight in Zhongcui Palace, otherwise his trip would have been in vain.

Qin Zehai stuck his head out and took a look. Seeing that there was no servant outside but the Queen, he became bolder, walked out quietly and came behind the Queen.

He suddenly covered the queen's mouth to prevent her from making any sound. When the queen struggled, he smiled and said proudly, "Don't be afraid, Second Mother. It's me."

The queen was so angry that she turned around and punched him twice in the chest, with very light force, just like she was flirting.

"You're trying to scare me to death! How did you get in without saying a word and run behind me?"

She turned around and faced Qin Zehai with a shy look on her face.

Qin Zehai grabbed her hands and rubbed her knuckles gently with his thumbs. The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous. "I climbed in through the window of your inner room. The emperor was still there when I came in." He smiled proudly, as if he was showing off his superb skills and that he had not been discovered by the emperor.

The queen's face suddenly darkened and she sternly rebuked him, "Don't do this next time! What if he finds out?"
