After swallowing my anger and taking the blame, I became the lucky little queen
Chapter 497: Taking 1 Steps Back
If she fails to produce anything this time, the poisonous insect will eat her heart in the next five days. She doesn't dare to take the risk.
Qin Junyu did not believe in years and months, but he believed in years and months. After hearing her words, he stopped asking and waited quietly for Qingyu to come back and report.
On the other side, there was another person who was keeping a close eye on the movements at the entrance of the alley.
-
About a quarter of an hour later, Qingyu came back, wearing a mask with green face and fangs on his face.
"My lord and Crown Princess, she has already drunk the medicine and told my subordinates that Prince Ren did not surrender to the enemy. His real purpose is to use the Northern Wei people to kill..." He looked up at Chun Qin Junyu tremblingly.
Qin Junyu raised his eyebrows.
Qingyu lowered his head, his voice gradually weakened, "Kill the emperor and the master, then he will use the army in his hands to drive out the Northern Wei people, and naturally inherit the throne."
Once the emperor and Qin Junyu died, there was almost no one in the court who could oppose him. It was only a matter of time before he was enthroned. Using this method, not only would he not leave a bad reputation, but all the people of Liuli would be grateful to Qin Zehai.
Nian Su Su laughed angrily, "How...cheap."
Qin Junyu waved his hand and Qingyu retreated.
"It's not too late to know now. At least we have countermeasures. Qin Zehai has long had the intention of rebellion. Even if there was no war this time, he would have secretly prepared and picked a suitable time to rebel. He was in the dark and we were in the light, so we were caught off guard."
"Think about it from another perspective. This time we are in control of his movements and have the initiative. We have a good chance of winning."
Qin Junyu's analysis was well-reasoned, and Nian Susu's anger was suppressed a little.
"If Qin Zehai really uses his troops to attack Shengjing, what are our chances of winning?"
"What if we lose?"
She estimated in her mind that Qin Zehai had about 50,000 elite soldiers, and the neighboring country had only lent them 20,000 soldiers. Even if they pieced together some, they could only gather 30,000 at most. They were at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, and it was unknown how many people Qin Zehai had secretly recruited.
It’s not that Nian Susu doesn’t believe Qin Junyu, but war is ruthless and it’s hard to say who will win and who will lose.
Qin Junyu gave her a number.
"Sixty percent?" Nian Susu was shocked.
Qin Junyu nodded. "The worst outcome is that I lose the fight, but I won't die that easily. Even if I die, I will first make his crimes public and let everyone know his conspiracy."
Nian Susu agreed, "Don't worry. Even if Qin Zehai only wants to kill you and the emperor, if you are unfortunate enough to meet his murderous hand, I will risk everything to expose his crimes to the public."
Qin Junyu was moved by what he heard, but he also felt that something was wrong. Why did it sound so like a curse on him?
-
Prince Ren's Palace.
Nian Qiaoyue was brought to Qin Zehai by two guards.
Qin Zehai's face was gloomy. Nian Qiaoyue had something on him. Even though his eyes were creepy, she didn't show any fear. She struggled to push the guard away and said, "Let go!"
The guards only take orders from one person and there is no way they will let her go.
Qin Zehai gave her a light look and Nian Qiaoyue was released.
Nian Qiaoyue's eyes widened with anger. "Prince Ren, things are different now. I am still a distinguished guest of your mansion. How can you let them detain me like a prisoner?"
"Besides, they have followed me all the way. Is this the attitude of Your Majesty to cooperate with me?"
Nian Qiaoyue's eyes rolled back in anger when she thought about how she was caught by them just after coming out of the alley.
Qin Zehai snorted coldly, "Miss Nian, don't think too highly of yourself. It's true that you have leverage over me, but that doesn't mean I have to treat you with respect. If you dare to do something that makes me unhappy, I'll lock you up in the dungeon!"
Qin Zehai's anger was no less than Nian Qiaoyue's.
Qin Zehai's plan was to kill the person who contacted Nian Qiaoyue, so that Nian Qiaoyue would not be able to pass on the message in his hands, and his plan would still be perfect.
But he never expected that the woman who met Nian Qiaoyue last time seemed to have disappeared after leaving, and his men couldn't find her at all. This time he went to watch her in person, vowing to see the person's face clearly before sending someone to kill her.
It turned out that the person who came back this time was a man, and Qin Zehai was completely stunned.
People say Nian Qiaoyue is smart, but she is so stupid that she ruined her own life. People say she is stupid, but she knows that a different person should be the contact person every time, and this time the man disappeared and could never be found again.
Those two people are definitely not ordinary people. Ordinary people can never erase all traces of their existence.
Qin Zehai had a bold guess in his mind. Could Nian Qiaoyue be an undercover sent by the Northern Wei people? The purpose was to monitor him. After all, he was the prince of Liuli. It was unbelievable for him to betray his country and surrender to the enemy.
That's why Nian Qiaoyue suddenly became smart, because all these tricks were given to her by that Northern Wei man.
Basing everything that has happened recently on this assumption, it all makes sense.
Thinking of this possibility, Qin Zehai's eyes changed when he looked at Nian Qiaoyue. There was a hint of curiosity mixed with deep suspicion as to how Nian Qiaoyue got in touch with the people of Northern Wei.
Nian Qiaoyue was a little scared. If Qin Zehai really locked her up in the dungeon in a fit of rage, she would have no choice but to wait for death.
Nian Qiaoyue stopped when she saw that things were going well, "I was so angry that I didn't know how to talk. Please forgive me, Your Highness."
She was thinking, and asked him to answer her doubts: "But...why did the prince send someone to monitor me?"
She had fainted in front of Prince Ren's mansion. Wasn't that obvious enough? She had gone through so much trouble to get back here, so why would she run away?
Qin Zehai sorted out his thoughts and felt that it was very likely that Nian Qiaoyue was an undercover agent planted by the Northern Wei Dynasty. He planned to be careful with his words and actions from today on and not let Nian Qiaoyue hear anything she shouldn't hear.
"I'm afraid you'll run away." Qin Zehai told the truth.
Since Nian Qiaoyue is an undercover agent, he can make good use of her and make the Northern Wei major general believe in his loyalty, so that he will have a better chance of winning.
Nian Qiaoyue sneered, "Where can I go if I run away? Go back..."
Before she finished saying the word "Prime Minister's Mansion", she felt a sharp pain in her chest, her vision became blurry, and her ears started to ring and hurt, instantly causing a series of reactions.
She covered her chest in pain and squatted on the spot. This scared Qin Zehai. She didn't say she felt uncomfortable during the days she was locked up in the dungeon, but after disappearing for a few days without any reason, she showed all kinds of symptoms when she came back.
I heard from the servants that Nian Qiaoyue often got sick while talking, and no one knew what happened, but she could adjust quickly as if nothing had happened.
Qin Zehai observed Nian Qiaoyue carefully. After a while, Nian Qiaoyue stood up on her knees. Except for her red eyes and wandering gaze, there was nothing unusual about her.
It’s really amazing…
