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

"No!" Li Huairen suddenly laughed: "I'm not even as good as a dog!"

He lost all his energy, let go of Nian Susu, and slumped to the ground like a puddle of mud. Nian Susu stepped back a few steps cautiously to prevent him from pouncing on him again.

"I've been here for so long, I'm tired of it, I'm tired of living. I don't want to feel pulses, prescribe medicine, get medicine, boil medicine, cut hands and legs every day, and I don't want to be covered in blood that I can't wash off."

Li Huairen's mood changed very quickly. He was smiling just now, but now he started crying, "I just want to leave here! What have I done wrong! Wuuuuu... I don't want to stay in this damn place anymore wuuuuu..."

Nian Susu finally understood that Li Huairen was a Phoenix man who wanted to rely on women to escape his miserable current situation.

No wonder she and Xiao Yunzheng were both entangled, because they both had one thing in common: they had a special relationship with Qin Junyu.

Although no one knows their true identities, Qin Junyu's identity is public and transparent, so Li Huairen is betting that their identities are equally noble and can help him escape from suffering.

“Heh…” Nian Susu sneered, “Your suffering is not caused by anyone. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself.”

"If you behave yourself, I can consider not making things awkward. But if you dare to think about someone you shouldn't, don't blame me for being ruthless."

She was too lazy to watch Li Huairen's hypocritical acting and left the pharmacy in big strides.

Li Huairen's resentful gaze pierced Nian Susu's back sharply. He wiped his tears, got up from the ground, and the pitiful image just now disappeared instantly.

He gritted his teeth and said, "I won't allow anyone to ruin my good deeds."

Qin Junyu's injuries are no longer serious thanks to Nian Susu's careful care, and he has been able to wield the sword in the past few days.

Chen Qijin hurried into his tent and saw Qin Junyu reading a book. He said with a melancholy look on his face, "Your Highness, Qin Zehai has made another move."

"Oh?" Qin Junyu put down the book, and there was no worry on his calm face. Instead, Chen Qijin was so anxious that he jumped up and down.

Chen Qijin was so anxious that his face turned red: "They dug a wide canal six feet wide and four feet deep along Liangcheng! This is obviously aimed at our siege vehicles!"

"I got off the siege vehicle a few days ago. The vehicle is so large and heavy that it is difficult to move. In addition, there is such a wide ditch dug along the city that it is difficult for the siege vehicle to even get close to the city gate!"

Qin Junyu thought about it, his emotions still not fluctuating too much: "Have you finished digging?"

Digging canals along the city is a huge project that requires enormous manpower and material resources. Not to mention whether there will be other accidents along the way, it will take at least three days and three nights to dig without sleep to barely complete it.

"Not yet!" Chen Qijin thought Qin Junyu had figured out a way to deal with it, and he couldn't help but get excited, "They just started the construction not long ago! Let's send troops to catch them by surprise! Not only will they not be able to dig the canal, but they will also lose soldiers!"

Chen Qijin's blood was boiling. As long as Qin Junyu gave the order, he would immediately lead his men to attack and win a beautiful victory, thus crushing the enemy's arrogance and boosting the morale of our army!

But Qin Junyu picked up his book again and said lightly: "No need, give them three days, wait until they finish digging the canal."

"But..." Chen Qijin expressed his incomprehension. How could they attack the city if their siege vehicles couldn't get through? Would they have to rely on ladders to climb up one by one and die?

He wanted to say something, but Qin Junyu didn't give him a chance to argue. He waved his hand and asked him to leave. Chen Qijin had to give up.

The autumn rain continued for more than ten days, and finally stopped on the Double Ninth Festival. The whole world was washed away, and the summer heat and anger were all washed away by the autumn wind. Standing on the city ladder and looking out, the mountains and valleys in the distance were hazy with fog, and it was hard to tell whether it was the human world or the fairyland.

Qin Junyu put on his autumn clothes, and as his injuries had not yet healed, he put on an extra cloak at the nagging of Axuan and Qingyu.

"Your Highness, this is a letter from Shengjing." A Falcon placed the envelope on the desk.

The last time I received a letter from Li Zhongquan, I learned that Nian Chengyun was imprisoned and the situation was under the control of the Queen. I haven't received any letters from Shengjing since then.

This time, Qin Junyu was actually a little nervous.

A Falcon saw his mood and offered to read the letter for him, but Qin Junyu disagreed and opened the letter without saying a word.

A Falcon stood aside, his eyes fixed on his face.

Qin Junyu's expression changed from calm to solemn. He clenched a corner of the letter and his chest heaved violently.

He put the letter down and pinched his brows to suppress his anger.

From his reaction, one could tell that the content of the letter was not good news. Looking from Ah Falcon's direction, he couldn't see the content clearly, but he was sure that the handwriting was also Li Zhongquan's.

Qin Junyu let out a breath. Even if Axuan suppressed his curiosity and didn't ask, he didn't intend to hide it from him.

"My father has woken up, paralyzed in bed, slurred speech, and even somewhat unable to recognize people. The queen has replaced the guards of the Yangxin Palace with her own people. No one is allowed to approach without a warrant."

"Except Li Zhongquan, several palace servants who serve nearby, and the imperial physician trusted by the queen, no one knows that father has woken up." Qin Junyu frowned.

Ah Falcon was shocked: "That is to say, the Queen not only controls the court, but even the Emperor..."

The emperor was also placed under house arrest by her. She could take his life at any time if she wanted.

What's even more terrible is that the Queen and Qin Zehai are in cahoots. If she continues to spread rumors of Qin Junyu's rebellion in the court, then even if Qin Junyu defeats Qin Zehai and returns to Beijing in triumph, no one will support him to ascend the throne.

If he lost, Qin Zehai would naturally win the hearts and prestige of the people in the name of eliminating traitors. Several princes did not have the potential to be emperor. As long as he could mobilize the hearts of the people a little, almost no one would dare to oppose his succession to the throne.

The current situation is not very friendly to him.

Ah Falcon was equally worried, "Your Highness, we must return to the capital as soon as possible. We can't delay any longer."

"Yeah." Qin Junyu did not comment.

Three days later, Qin Zehai used 20,000 men to dig a six-foot wide and four-foot deep canal along Liangcheng. If one wanted to leave the city, he had to use a thick wooden board across the middle as a bridge. Otherwise, even if one reached the limit of human endurance, it would be impossible to cross over on foot.

There were only 30,000 soldiers left in Liangcheng, 20,000 of whom had been digging canals with hoes for three days and three nights without sleep. They were so tired that they could not even stand, let alone use weapons to fight the enemy.

When Qin Zehai heard someone report that the soldiers were too tired and might need to rest for several days before going to the battlefield, he did not take it seriously. He thought that everything would be fine as long as there was a ditch to protect the city. Little did he know that he had already fallen into the ditch.

On the day of completion, Qin Junyu brought his men to attack. This time, all the remaining troops of Liang Wu were dispatched - more than 6,000 people. They used ladders as bridges, crossed the wide canal to reach the bottom of the city wall, and then erected the ladders and climbed up to attack the city.
