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

The next day.

Nian Susu still looks after five furnaces by herself. From time to time, people come to ask her questions about the illness, and she is so busy that she is dizzy.

Li Huairen, who always gets up early, arrived late and strolled to her side leisurely, with his hands behind his back, looking as if it had nothing to do with him, and had no intention of lending a hand.

Nian Susu was checking a soldier's pulse and didn't notice him until the soldier sitting in front of her looked up and gave an unnatural smile, "Doctor Li."

Nian Susu looked back. The way Li Huairen looked at her was different from before, which made her very uncomfortable. She just curled her lips slightly and continued to check her pulse.

"Doctor Nian is a skilled doctor, no wonder the soldiers in the army praise you." Li Huairen suddenly blurted out this with a sarcastic tone.

Without waiting for Nian Susu to answer him, the soldier said with a smile: "Yes, yes, we all like Doctor Nian very much."

Nian Susu: ...Thank you.

Li Huairen was already unhappy with me, so when he said this, how could he be praising me? He was clearly pushing me into the fire pit!

"Doctor Li, you are overpraising me. I am just a beginner and I still have a lot to learn."

Nian Susu let go of the soldier's hand and smiled at him gently: "Your wound is not inflamed. The discomfort in your throat may be caused by internal heat. Go to Doctor Xia later to get two bowls of heat-clearing soup and you will be fine."

She is responsible for boiling the medicine, and summer is responsible for distributing the medicine. The two of them divide the work, which avoids chaos and makes things a lot easier.

The soldier thanked him and left.

Nian Susu turned around and pushed the firewood at the bottom of the stove inside. The fire rushed towards her, but she felt like a thorn in her back and a chill ran down her spine.

Li Huairen had been standing behind and had not left. Nian Susu felt strange. Why was he so abnormal today? Was it because he heard someone say that his medical skills were not as good as hers?

Thinking of what he just said, Nian Susu felt that this was most likely the reason.

She was lost in thought when Li Huairen suddenly spoke up, "Doctor Nian, I've always been curious, why did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who has so many talented people around him, choose to bring a woman like you into the military camp as a traveling doctor?"

After Li Huairen finished speaking, he answered for her in his mind: It must have taken a lot of planning, right?

In the military camp, Qin Junyu could not get in touch with any other woman except her. This was a golden opportunity to rise to power. After the war was over, Nian Susu would go back with Qin Junyu, and at least she would be able to become a concubine.

This woman is too cunning.

Li Huairen's current view of Nian Susu is similar to that of the group of military prostitutes. The former uses all means to gain power and sells her body, while the latter sells her body to survive.

Li Huairen is not a righteous man. The reason why he hates Nian Susu so much is not because of her bad character, but because he will destroy her if he can't get her.

He would feel better only if Nian Su Su was a hateful and despicable woman, because such a person was not worthy of him, instead of her being attracted to him.

Nian Susu felt that these words were strange, but she couldn't tell what was strange. She thought that he was just dissatisfied. She sighed helplessly and prepared to make things clear with Li Huairen. Otherwise, he would look at her with disdain every day and come up to her and say a few sarcastic words from time to time. No one could stand it.

When the medicine was almost cooked, Nian Su put out the fires of the five furnaces.

She stood up on her knees and said calmly, "Doctor Li, can I have a moment to talk?"

Li Huairen smiled and raised his eyebrows as if giving alms, "Of course."

The two of them went to a secluded and deserted place together. In fact, they just walked a few dozen steps deep into the forest. They could see human figures walking through the uneven tree trunks.

Li Huairen raised his chin slightly with pride, "Miss Nian, do you want to explain to me?"

Nian Susu frowned, with disdain written all over her face. If it weren't for the fact that Li Huairen was from Liangwu and she was from Liuli, and that swearing would affect the friendship between the two countries, she would have already started to speak passionately.

She pressed her brows, suppressed her nausea, and said to him kindly, "Doctor Li, I didn't spread those words. If you feel angry, then go find the source and ask him to help you clarify it, instead of holding on to me."

She was helpless. “I am also a victim! Although they are criticizing one and praising another, the one being praised is me, but these public opinions have already had a serious impact on my life.”

They assigned the work in turns. During these five days, Li Huairen was seeing patients while Nian Susu was making medicine. Next time it would be the other way around. However, because many people said that Li Huairen's medical skills were not good, they all went to her specifically to ask her to diagnose and prescribe medicine. As a doctor, she couldn't just sit there and watch patients, so she had to do two jobs at the same time.

"So I hope you can take this matter seriously, not only to help me, but also for your lifelong reputation!" Nian Susu advised earnestly.

Li Huairen was confused and didn't understand what she meant at all.

"What are you talking about?" Li Huairen's mouth twitched.

What is stepping on one and praising the other?

"Ah?" Nian Susu realized belatedly, "So you didn't know." She smiled awkwardly.

Li Huairen seemed to understand something. His pale face turned red instantly and he looked like he was roasted by fire.

No wonder so many people specifically seek medical treatment from Nian Susu. No wonder they would rather wait than look for him when he is free even though Nian Susu is obviously not available.

Li Huairen finally understood that this was what they thought privately.

“Hehe…” Nian Susu accidentally exposed herself. She took a few steps back guiltily, “So you’re not angry about this?”

Why was he so unhappy with me and always finding fault with me?

Nian Susu actually didn’t care what Li Huairen thought of her. It was okay even if they rolled their eyes at each other when they met. She just hoped that he would stop being so sarcastic and haunting her in the future.

She wanted to run away, but Li Huairen spoke first: "What did you just say...what do you mean?"

"Explain it clearly!" Li Huairen was so excited that his saliva was flying everywhere.

He usually looks weak, but when he gets angry, he is just like Chaoxiong. Nian Susu was scared and was really worried that he would hit someone.

After all, Li Huairen is not a gentleman who would not hit a woman.

"I don't know, I didn't say anything!" Nian Susu turned around and ran, his legs moving so fast that his feet almost left the ground.

Li Huairen was so angry that his chest heaved violently. He always felt that they must have been coveting Nian Susu's beauty and made up such a ridiculous lie in order to have a chance to get close to her. Anyway, he didn't believe it and didn't accept it.

He returned to the pharmacy with a cold face. Xia Tian wanted to talk to him, but was ignored. Xia Tian looked puzzled.

Li Huairen took his medicine box and left with a stern face, never looking at them straight in the eye from beginning to end.

Dong Qing was picking up medicine and felt strange. "Master has been acting strange these past few days. Did something happen?"
