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

Nian Susu looked around the courtyard and didn't see anyone else. "I'm looking for Qiao Yue. Is she here?"

Qiuyao's expression changed obviously. She clenched the broom tightly and hesitated for a while before saying, "She's not here."

Nian Susu smiled with an ambiguous tone. She took two steps forward and asked, "How is your relationship with Qiao Yue?"

"Not...not bad." Being stared at like that, Qiu Yao couldn't help but get nervous. She dragged her feet and took a few steps back, lowering her head and not daring to look at Nian Susu.

Nian Susu: "I heard that you recommended her to work at Xiangru Palace?"

Qiuyao: "Yes..."

Nian Susu: "Are you old acquaintances?"

The cold wind blew through the hall, lifting up the fallen leaves on the ground, making a rustling sound. Qiuyao had finally swept the dead leaves into a pile, but the wind blew away and all her work was in vain.

She bit her lower lip and said nothing, her eyes wandering.

Nian Susu exhaled, his mind as clear as a mirror, "Since you know her true identity, you still dare to let her into Xiangru Palace, you are really brave."

"I don't know what you are talking about." Qiu Yao's voice trembled, and her legs softened and she knelt down directly, "Master, please forgive me."

"Qiao Yue...Qiao Yue..." Nian Susu sneered, his voice was colder than the wind that had just blown. Qiuyao's heart skipped a beat and she felt a chill on her neck.

"Since you know her and are old acquaintances, you should know her story. You are still willing to help her under such circumstances. I admire your courage."

"But... courage is the most useless thing when living in the palace."

Nian Susu saw that she was a pretty good person and didn't want to implicate innocent people. "If you tell me where she is, I can let you out of the palace and give you some money. You don't have to be so humble and serve others anymore. How do you think?"

After the Queen was captured, it was only a matter of time before the Zhongcui Palace was rectified. The old people in the palace were either exiled to the laundry department or secretly executed, and none of them had a good ending.

Although Qiu Yao is close to Qin Fengtian, once Qin Fengtian is imprisoned, she will be trapped in this small courtyard for the rest of her life and will never be able to leave the palace again.

Nian Susu was giving her a chance to escape.

Qiu Yao lowered her head. "I really don't know where Qiao Yue has gone. She hasn't come back since last night."

Nian Susu believed that she knew nothing, and told her to stay in Zhongcui Palace and stay close to Qin Fengtian, so that at least her life would not be in danger for the time being.

-

Heaven Prison.

A palace maid came in carrying a food box, walked through several empty cells, looked around one by one, and finally saw a familiar figure in the sixth cell.

The Queen was sitting near the door, where a patch of sunlight happened to fall, and the only light came in through a small skylight on the wall.

The heavy clothes, gorgeous jewelry and exquisite armor were gone. She was only wearing a thin prisoner uniform, with unkempt hair and a haggard face.

She lowered her head and paid no attention to the person coming.

The maid placed the food box at her feet, squatted down, holding onto the gate, and said with a look of pity, "My Queen, how are you?"

The queen stared blankly at something without reacting.

“Hahaha…” She laughed out loud, “I didn’t expect you would have this day. God is watching you, and you’ve finally gotten your comeuppance.”

"If you had been more kind and hadn't hurt so many people, you wouldn't have ended up in such a miserable situation now."

"Your son is now crazy, stupid, and mentally retarded. It's all because of you."

After hearing this, the queen finally reacted.

She raised her head with bloodshot eyes, and like an enraged lion, she pounced on the door with her teeth bared, and the chain made a clanging sound.

"You're talking nonsense!" she screamed, spit flying everywhere.

A surge of emotions came over her in an instant, and the queen calmed down after venting them. She slowly stood up holding the fence.

The maid's face was not in the shadow, but her facial features were clearly visible. The queen observed her face closely and suddenly felt that she looked familiar.

She looked at that face in disbelief, "You..."

Qiao Yue came closer and smiled sinisterly, "Do you see who I am?"

The red birthmark on her face was gone and the burns were almost healed, so the queen recognized her after taking a closer look.

“Nian… Nian Qiaoyue?” The queen took a few steps back and looked at her with horror. “You… you are dead, aren’t you? Why are you here?!”

Moreover, he had been lurking in Zhongcui Palace for so long without being discovered by her. Thinking back on it now, I get goosebumps all over my body.

Nian Qiaoyue smiled and said, "Didn't expect it? I'm still alive."

"How can I bear to die if I haven't seen you suffer retribution yet?"

The queen pretended to be calm and reviewed what had happened during this period. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

She pointed at Nian Qiaoyue and asked, "You took the emperor away!?"

How could it be such a coincidence that the emperor disappeared on the night Qin Fengtian had a high fever?

Zhongcui Palace is not far from the Imperial Medical Bureau, but Qiao Yue went to ask the imperial physician for a long time and he didn’t come back. How can this be explained?

At this point, Nian Qiaoyue no longer hid the truth from her, "I was not the one who took the emperor away. I just helped Li Zhongquan with a small favor. I didn't expect that this small favor would ruin the Empress's entire plan."

"The queen is very angry, right?" She looked like a smug villain.

The queen said nothing, but sat down on the ground, her eyes fixed on Nian Qiaoyue with hatred.

Nian Qiaoyue came to see the Queen tonight, not just to make her angry.

She opened the food box at her feet. There was no food in it, but a bucket of kerosene and a fire starter.

The queen caught a glimpse of this and her legs went limp with fear. In her eyes, Nian Qiaoyue was just a lunatic who could do anything. The most important thing now was to keep her calm.

"Nian Qiaoyue, what are you doing!"

"Are you crazy!"

Amid the queen's roar, Nian Qiaoyue carried an oil barrel and sprinkled kerosene near the cell. The pungent smell spread. Nian Qiaoyue laughed madly and not only fell outside, but also poured kerosene on the queen.

The queen screamed and hid inside, but was inevitably splashed with water. Her legs were shaking with fear.

"It was Nian Susu who harmed you! If you want revenge, go find her! When have I ever done anything to let you down?"

"The reason why I have fallen into this situation today is closely related to Nian Susu! As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Why don't we join forces to destroy Nian Susu!"

The Queen tried to persuade her.

Nian Qiaoyue didn't listen at all. After pouring the bucket of kerosene, she approached the prison door with a sparking fire starter in her hand.

The queen was dumbfounded. "Calm down first, we have something to talk about."

She didn't want to die. She hadn't seen Qin Zehai yet. Qin Fengtian was waiting for her to return to Zhongcui Palace. It would be too depressing if she died in the Heavenly Prison like this.

Nian Qiaoyue sneered, "I have already died once, and I have nothing to lose again. I am already very satisfied to have the Queen buried with me."

"What else is there to say?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Nian Qiaoyue set fire to the hay on the ground, and the flames instantly engulfed the cell.
