After swallowing my anger and taking the blame, I became the lucky little queen
Chapter 52: The Model of the Best Citizen
Nian Qiao Yue takes her place, and she also takes Nian Qiao Yue's place, so what's the big deal.
Qin Junyu looked straight ahead, glanced to the side "inadvertently", and said in surprise:
"Why is Miss Nian here? Isn't your seat..." He looked across and then suddenly realized.
A set of movements flows smoothly.
Nian Susu didn't even realize that he was pretending and smiled at him, "Your Highness, long time no see."
I wonder if he is still angry that I didn't get up to see him off that day...
She couldn't help but feel nervous, but she was the one who was worried.
Qin Junyu looked normal and even took the initiative to talk to her. How could he look angry?
He nodded. "After three days of absence, I saw her with new eyes. I didn't expect Miss Nian to dance so well. When I saw her just now, I really thought she was a goddess descending to earth."
Nian Susu felt embarrassed by the compliment and smiled awkwardly, "Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness."
She just now and she now are like two different people, one is a goddess full of divinity and cannot be desecrated, and the other is the gentle and dignified Miss Nian.
Qin Junyu took a sip of wine, and her eyes unconsciously became gentle and sparkling. She never had only one side.
When facing criminals, she can negotiate without fear, and she will also step forward to act as bait when it is necessary to lure the snake out of its hole. She is very brave.
When she was with Xuan Ji, she was like a little girl, without so many scruples, chattering away, innocent and full of life.
In front of her elders, she is the well-behaved and obedient young girl.
Even in front of him, she didn't seem to dare to be too presumptuous. With his status as the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace, there seemed to be a turbulent river between them.
When she found him staring at her with such soft eyes, Nian Susu's face suddenly turned red. She was flustered and grabbed the wine cup in a panic to break the ambiguous atmosphere. "Your Highness, I'll toast you a glass as an apology."
Qin Junyu's face was hot, but his expression was calm, "When did Miss Nian do anything to offend me?"
When asked by him, Nian Susu felt embarrassed to say it. He had long forgotten about it, but she kept holding on to it, acting as if she cared about him very much.
But she had already said her apology and could not take it back, so she had to continue, "Your Highness, when you left the house that day, I did not mean to not see you off, but I was too sleepy and missed the time."
She lowered her head slightly and her eyes drooped. From his angular gaze, he could only see her slightly red cheeks and her long eyelashes fluttering like butterfly wings.
She held the wine cup, her fingertips turning white from pinching it. "Perhaps you are too busy with official duties and don't take these little things to heart, but I feel bad, so I'd like to take this opportunity to apologize to Your Highness."
Nian Susu didn't know why he would get nervous every time he faced Qin Junyu. This emotion never appeared when he was with Xuanji, Qin Fengtian and Jingzhe.
Qin Junyu said "Oh" meaningfully, his deep voice could not hide his light smile.
Nian Susu dared to look up at him, raised her glass to him, and said in a coquettish tone: "Your Highness will forgive me, right?"
Qin Junyu couldn't hide his smile. He coughed twice to calm down his emotions. Just as he was about to clink glasses with her, he found that the wine cup was empty, so he glanced sideways to signal the palace servant beside him to pour wine.
He just glanced at it and didn't look closely, so he didn't notice anything wrong.
But Nian Susu sensed a dangerous atmosphere. He looked around and saw that all the young ladies and ministers were served by palace maids, but why was it a eunuch who poured wine for Qin Junyu?
After pouring the wine, the eunuch lowered his head and retreated behind him. The shadow cast by the eunuch's hat covered his face, obscuring his expression.
Qin Junyu raised his arm to toast her.
Nian Susu recognized that the eunuch was the queen's man. The last time the queen summoned her to the palace to discuss her marriage, it was this little eunuch who accompanied her.
"Wait!" She suppressed her voice and held Qin Junyu's arm.
Qin Junyu was a little confused.
Nian Susu tried his best to control his expression and glanced up at the queen. Sure enough, she was looking at Qin Junyu.
She smiled, returned to normal, and snatched the wine cup from his hand, "Your Highness, since I am asking for your forgiveness, I should drink three cups as punishment first."
She drank her glass of wine, and a burning sensation spread from her throat to her abdomen. She shuddered and her neck shrank.
This wine is really strong, much stronger than the one she drank at Qin Fengtian's place. Was this done on purpose?
He wanted to get Qin Junyu drunk and off guard so that he could attack him more easily.
"Your Highness, what kind of wine is this? It's so strong!" Nian Susu took the glass of wine that belonged to Qin Junyu, put it under his nose and smelled it, frowning slightly. Sure enough, something was added to it.
Although the smell of alcohol was strong, it was easy for someone like her who dealt with Chinese medicinal herbs all day to smell it.
A large amount of Chuanxiong and Curcuma is added to it.
Chuanxiong and Curcuma are medicines that can promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, while wine can help to clear the blood vessels.
If you drink alcohol while taking these two medicines, especially the strong liquor in the wine cup, within half an hour your blood vessels will dilate, and qi and blood will surge, leading to excessive pressure on the heart and brain and death from heart failure.
The medical technology in ancient times was too backward, and it might not have been possible to find out the cause of death, because Chuanxiong and Yu Jin were not poisons, and they could not explain the heart failure.
Qin Junyu was not stupid and immediately understood what she meant.
"Miss Nian, the wine is strong. Let me drink it." He pretended to grab it.
Nian Susu dodged his arm and said, "No, no..."
Then the wine spilled, falling right onto the floor behind her, leaving the hem of her skirt slightly dirty.
The queen was relieved.
Nian Susu also breathed a sigh of relief. She was thinking about pouring the wine into her sleeves when drinking, but she didn't expect Qin Junyu to understand what she meant so quickly.
If it was that idiot Qin Fengtian, he would probably let her drink it happily.
Thinking of Qin Fengtian, Nian Susu looked across.
Qin Qintian and Nian Qiaoyue sat very close to each other, they lowered their heads and whispered to each other with smiles on their faces.
The Queen felt unhappy and sent Zhou Fuhai to remind Qin Fengtian.
No matter how reluctant Qin Fengtian was, he dared not disobey the Queen's order, and he distanced himself from Nian Qiaoyue listlessly.
Nian Qiaoyue looked like a daughter-in-law who was bullied by her mother-in-law, with a wronged look on her face, and dared not say a word.
Nian Susu found it inexplicably funny.
"Miss Nian, thank you." Qin Junyu's voice came to my ears.
When Nian Susu looked over, the eunuch was gone.
She waved her hand and drank a glass of wine heroically, "It's a small matter. Protecting His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is what every citizen of Liuli Country should do."
How noble! How selfless! How touching! She is simply the best example of citizenship.
I just hope that when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince competes with Qin Fengtian for the throne in the future, he will remember her kindness at this moment and not harm her. This way, all his efforts will not be in vain.
She spoke seriously and passionately, and Qin Junyu laughed out loud.
