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

It is said that there are unclean things near the Qinian Palace, and the emperor has been entangled by them and his yang energy has been sucked away, so he cannot get better.

The two of them shut up tacitly and quickened their pace. The faster they went, the more scared they became, as if something was catching up with them from behind.

"What are you talking about at night?"

As they turned the corner, they bumped head-on into a pale-faced woman.

"Ah——" The two palace maids were so frightened that they screamed loudly.

I was so scared that my legs went weak, my brain didn't react, my feet felt like they were glued to the ground, and I forgot to run away.

"Shh!" Shen Xinran wanted to cover their mouths. "Stop yelling!"

Shen Xinran had stayed in the wind for too long, her hair was blown a little messy, her lips were pale, and she didn't look like a living person under the cold moonlight. She appeared too suddenly, so she scared the two little palace maids.

When they saw clearly that it was Shen Xinran, the two palace maids behind her were still in shock and their faces turned pale with fear. Their first reaction was to kneel and salute.

This is their master. Even if they were frightened to the point of almost fainting, they could only swallow their anger in silence.

Shen Xinran glanced at the tray held by the palace maid on her left and asked knowingly, "What is this? Why are you two here so late?"

The maid honestly told her: "My lady, this is the emperor's medicine. I am about to go to the Palace of Prayer for Good Harvests."

Shen Xinran was thoughtful, and came up with an idea. She pulled the two palace maids aside. She tried to bribe them, but it didn't work, so she changed to threatening them, and it worked.

One of the palace maids exchanged clothes with her, and Shen Xinran successfully disguised herself and walked to the Qinian Palace with another palace maid.

She was very lucky, as Lin Shoude was not there at that time. Hulinwei saw that it was the palace maid who often came to deliver medicine from the imperial kitchen, so he let her in. His companion did not look closely because the person who accompanied her was different almost every night.

Shen Xinran didn't expect that she could pass through three doors so easily. She felt nervous and excited.

"Give me the medicine, you wait outside." Shen Xinran left the palace maid in the inner corridor and went into the bedroom with the medicine.

There were only a few lights on in the hall, and the dragon bed was almost completely immersed in darkness. Shen Xinran hesitated for a moment and stopped in the light.

"Your Majesty?" she called tentatively.

No one answered.

Shen Xinran had finally managed to sneak in, so of course she couldn't give up easily. So she took a deep breath and walked forward bravely. Just as she got close to the bed, she saw a bulge in the quilt, as if someone was lying inside, but it was too dark and she couldn't see clearly.

The medicine was placed on the ground. Shen Xinran tiptoed closer and patted the quilt gently, "Your Majesty? Are you okay? I am here to give you the medicine."

Still no response...

The quilt was pulled up so high that she couldn't see the face even if she got closer.

Shen Xinran applied a little more force in her hand and pressed down, but she felt that something was not right. It was soft and cottony, and it collapsed when pressed, just like cotton.

She gritted her teeth and lifted the quilt, but found that there was no one on the bed, only a roll of quilt lying there quietly.

Shen Xinran widened her eyes. How could there be no one on the bed?

Suddenly, she heard light footsteps behind her. Her body and back stiffened. After realizing something, she tried to escape from this place in a hurry. She ran to the side but bumped into the footrest of the dragon bed and fell to the ground.

When she turned around, the sword energy was like a rainbow, and the sword blade with a flashing cold light was placed on her neck.

"Emperor..." Shen Xinran subconsciously thought it was Qin Junyu. He found out that he had sneaked into the Qinian Palace and secretly hid himself, pretending that there was someone on the bed, and then appeared again when she was fooled.

She thought so in her heart, but what she saw with her eyes was Qin Wenyuan's face.

The cold moonlight fell on him through the window. His eyes were sinister and his whole body exuded murderous aura.

He gritted his teeth and said, "You, why are you here?" Qin Wenyuan tilted his head.

He recognized this woman, who often hung around the Qinian Palace, but had never been able to enter that door.

And I heard from Lin Shoude that today a concubine came to the door and made a fuss about wanting to see the emperor. When she failed, she started cursing and kept pestering the emperor for a long time before she left. I think it was the panicked woman in front of me.

Qin Wenyuan didn't want to hurt her, but she discovered the secret between him and his brother...

Although Shen Xinran didn't know why the fifth prince appeared in the emperor's bedroom, she knew that what she had to do now was to protect herself.

"Um... Fifth Prince, I'm here to deliver medicine to the Emperor. Look..." She pointed to the medicine bowl on the ground, "This medicine is still hot."

Qin Wenyuan suddenly smiled strangely, "Really?"

"Are you here to deliver medicine, or to die?"

Shen Xinran had never seen such a horrible expression on a child's face. She was immediately frightened out of control, and the anxiety and fear that had been pent up for a long time suddenly burst out.

She covered her face and screamed: "Ah——"

……

The palace maid outside the door waited for a long time but no one came out. She couldn't help but feel a little nervous. In the past, when she came to deliver medicine, she would just put it down and leave, not daring to look anywhere else. Before Shen Xinran went in, she had instructed him to put the medicine down and leave, and not to linger. But such a long time had passed and no one came out. Could something have happened?

The palace maid couldn't help but think of the rumors in the palace again.

Just as she was worried and frightened, a scream suddenly came from inside and she was so scared that her body froze.

The lights in the Qinian Palace were suddenly brightly lit, illuminating the entire corridor. The guards outside the palace heard the noise and rushed over with swords in hand.

The maid was at the end of the corridor and hid in a corner, and no one noticed her.

After the Lin Guards rushed in, Lin Shoude also came. The bedroom door closed and no more sound came from inside.

The palace maid knew that Shen Xinran was in trouble. While everyone was inside, she ran out of the Palace of Prayer for Good Harvests, running faster and faster...

Nian Susu felt refreshed early in the morning. He moved around in the yard for a while and found that others had not gotten up yet. Qin Junyu was making breakfast in the kitchen, so he said something to him and went to the flower shop to open the door.

Qin Junyu responded and gave her two boiled eggs to eat on the way. Nian Susu saw that the unknown object in the pot was smoking and decisively accepted the eggs.

She ate and hummed songs as she walked to the street. From a distance, she saw that the door of the flower shop was open. Could it be Ding Changfeng and the girls who were helping in the shop?

When I looked closer, I saw that there was no one in the store, but everything in the store had been smashed, even the door had been lifted away.

The vases were broken into pieces, and the ground was covered with fresh flowers that had not yet been made into finished products, mixed with mud and stuck to the ground, not to mention other facilities. Everything that could be smashed was smashed, and those that could not be smashed were moved away. It was obvious that someone was deliberately causing trouble.

Nian Susu was furious and walked around with his fists clenched, but he didn't see any suspicious people.
