I, who disguised myself as a woman, turned out to be a queen! ?

Chapter 1202 Empress: Give it to me, I'll take it back and cry to your sister-in-law.
Su Qingning's tearful and snotty appearance startled Su Wenqing and the others, who wondered why the child was suddenly like this.

Su Linhan looked at Su Qingning and became anxious. She was fine just a moment ago, how could she suddenly turn out like this?

Su Liheng was practically about to blurt out, "Did someone bully my sister?"

Wu Dameng was a little flustered as she tried to shove the handkerchief into Su Qingning's hand, because she hadn't expected that Sister Qingning would cry.

Even Yan Ruyu was somewhat flustered; like Wu Dameng, she had never considered such a thing.

Lu Cai, who had been waiting at the door, looked at Su Qingning as if he had discovered something.

Su Qingning grabbed Su Chang'an's arm, her eyes brimming with tears, and cried, "If you don't help me, no one else will. Otherwise, my mother will really beat me to death, and I'll just marry any man I want."

Su Chang'an was startled, but seeing Su Qingning wiping her nose with her hands on her clothes, he couldn't help but say, "Don't cry, tell me what's wrong."

Su Chang'an naturally knew about his second uncle Su Ziyu's request for his second aunt to return the money.

The battle in Yan no longer requires Su Ziyu to be stationed in Yuzhou. Moreover, given the Su family's situation, it would be inappropriate to have someone with such military and political power in another region. Now that the chaos is about to end, no one is saying anything, but as time goes on, trouble will naturally arise.

This is also what Su Ziyu said when Su Chang'an passed through Yuzhou. So the reason for returning was that Su Ziyu requested to return to the capital.

Although Xia Fengxiang still intended to use Su Ziyu, he knew the importance of the matter and, after thinking it over, agreed to Su Ziyu's request. The vacant position of Minister of Works was reserved for Su Ziyu.

Based on Xia Fengxiang's words, there's no reason for you to come back and become a minor official.

Su Qingning sniffed, but tears continued to flow as she looked at Su Chang'an and sobbed, "My mother... my mother knows that I've done a lot of good things in the capital. She wrote to me before saying that I should get ready when I come back, and that several mansions in the capital have already contacted her to marry me off."

Upon hearing this, Su Chang'an turned to look at Su Wenqing and Su Zimu.

Su Wenqing shook his head: "You've caused too much trouble, and your second aunt is furious."

As Su Qingning looked at Su Wenqing with a tearful face, she rubbed her eyes, and then burst into tears again.

Seeing Su Qingning's actions, Lu Cai, who was straightforward by nature, quickly stepped forward and said, "Third Miss, although that poison is harmless to the eyes, it is still poison after all. It cannot be used directly like this. It must be diluted with water first."

Upon hearing Lu Cai's words, everyone looked at him.

Su Qingning's expression froze for a moment, but then she exclaimed "Wow!"

After a moment's thought, Su Linhan grabbed Su Qingning's arm, reached into Su Qingning's sleeve, and immediately pulled out a damp handkerchief.

After smelling it, Su Linhan handed it to Lu Cai.

Lu Cai took it with both hands and sniffed it lightly: "Hmm, it's snake eye dew. It's made by digging out the eyes of venomous snakes and boiling them with several other poisonous herbs to make a transparent liquid. In Raojiang, the dew is diluted with water and then dripped into the eyes to treat some eye ailments. But because of its medicinal properties, it easily makes people tear up, so people in Raojiang also call it 'crying water.' This is undiluted, so although it can come into direct contact with the eyes, it's still poisonous, so it's not good."

Upon hearing this, Su Linhan took the handkerchief, and looked at Su Qingning with a puzzled expression.

Su Qingning sobbed, her eyes brimming with tears. Seeing everyone looking at her, she never expected that she had been inspired by her grandfather's words, "If you cry, the Empress will soften her heart," and that this had led to her being exposed.

She bit her lower lip lightly, gripped Su Chang'an's arm tightly, and was about to cry out again.

But at that moment, Su Linhan took a handkerchief and placed it under Su Linhan's eyes.

Wow!
Su Qingning really let out a "waaaah" and tears streamed down her face.

Seeing this, Su Wenqing couldn't bear to watch any longer and turned to walk towards the chairs in front of the hall, saying, "Big girl, don't pay attention to her! This impulsive girl scared me." Su Zimu looked at Su Qingning and breathed a sigh of relief, wondering what grievance she had suffered.

Before leaving, the second son entrusted his daughter to him. He was worried that if Qingning were to suffer any injustice, it would be disastrous.

Su Chang'an looked at Su Qingning with a mixture of amusement and exasperation.

But before she could speak, Su Wenqing said, "Big girl, come here quickly, let's not worry about her."

Su Chang'an couldn't help but smile as he looked at Qing Ning, whose face was full of grievance, but whose tears seemed utterly fake.

Su Linhan grabbed Su Chang'an's other hand: "Big sister, don't pay attention to her. Let's go in first and let her scare us with such methods."

As they spoke, he pulled Su Chang'an towards the main hall.

Su Qingning held onto Su Chang'an's hand, clearly not intending to let go.

But Su Liheng yanked him away, glared at Su Qingning, then smiled at Su Chang'an. After taking two steps, he turned back to Su Qingning, his eyes seeming to say, "You think you can touch my older sister?!"

As soon as Su Chang'an sat down, Su Wenqing glanced at Qing Ning, who was standing in the doorway, sobbing and looking frightened: "Come in and stand here!"

Then, looking at Su Chang'an, she said softly, "You decide what to do."

Su Chang'an smiled and glanced at Qing Ning, then looked at Su Wenqing: "Second Aunt, are you looking for a husband for Qing Ning?"

Su Zimu shook his head and said, "Don't listen to this girl's nonsense. Several families had proposed marriage to her before, but your mother wanted to see what the girl wanted, so she declined them all. However, some of those ladies knew your second aunt and they exchanged letters. So your second aunt wrote back, first telling you about the trouble she had caused in the capital, and then mentioning some families, including the old lady of the Guyuan Duke's Mansion. The old lady saw her at the Noble Ladies' Banquet, and your mother said she really liked Qing Ning."

Su Qingning muttered, "But I've never thought about getting married, I..."

Su Linhan interrupted Su Qingning with a cold face: "Did I ask you to speak? Grandpa made it clear that you should talk to Big Sister. Big Sister nodded, and that was the end of it. But you, you used such methods."

Su Qingning looked at Su Linhan with a wronged expression: "I did this because I listened to Grandpa."

Su Wenqing was about to drink tea when she heard this and laughed and scolded, "When did I give you this idea?"

Su Qingning immediately said, "Just now, you told Lord Tian that you cried in front of the eldest sister, and the eldest sister, being soft-hearted, agreed immediately after seeing you cry."

Upon hearing this, Su Wenqing chuckled and then scolded, "You brat! I was just teasing Tian Gui, what does it have to do with your matter!?"

Su Qingning choked up. The medicine was quite effective. Su Qingning's eyes were red and still wet with tears.

Su Chang'an looked at Su Qingning: "That medicine... is there any left?"

Su Qingning nodded obediently, then took out a small glass bottle from her other sleeve, which was half-filled with liquid.

Su Chang'an looked at the bottle and said, "Give it to me, I'll take it back and cry to your sister-in-law."

Upon hearing this, the others looked at Su Chang'an and asked, "Hmm?"

……

P.S.: That's all for now, it's a short one, I'll finish it tomorrow.
