Abandoned daughter reborn, legitimate son is resourceful

"Have you found out?"

Yan Boxi glanced at the place where the voice came from, and walked hurriedly towards Nan Jinming.

At this time, Nan Jinming was standing by the window. She was wearing a simple dress, her eyes were as cold as ice, and she stared at the windy and snowy sky outside the window.

She was playing with an exquisite plum blossom hairpin in her hand, as if she was in deep thought.

When Nan Jinming heard Yan Boxi coming in, he did not turn around.

Yan Boxi replied calmly: "Someone from the Shangguan family."

Chu Xiaoran sat quietly beside Nan Jinming. His face was pale, and his originally gentle face revealed a hint of determination and concern.

"It seems that Shangguan Yilin can no longer hold back and is eager to attack you." Chu Xiaoran said softly.

Nan Jinming frowned slightly, as if he remembered something.

Chu Xiaoran looked puzzled: "Why did Uncle do this?"

Nan Jinming sighed and said slowly: "Have you forgotten the deal you made with the Prime Minister?"

Chu Xiaoran's face suddenly changed when he heard this. He was full of surprise and asked impatiently, "But I didn't do anything. Why is he so impatient to get rid of me?"

Nan Jinming's eyes were cold, and his tone was decisive: "Of course I'm worried that you will threaten the throne."

Chu Xiaoran clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, saying, "You are such a despicable villain!"

Yan Boxi thought for a moment and suggested: "We can't just sit there and wait for death. We need to take the initiative."

Nan Jinming nodded in agreement: "Indeed, this matter should be reported to His Majesty."

"But..." Chu Xiaoran seemed to be hiding something.

"What are you worried about?" Nan Jinming turned and looked at him.

"Without solid evidence, it will be difficult to convince Your Majesty." Chu Xiaoran expressed his concerns.

"indeed so."

Yan Boxi agreed, "We need to find evidence before we can denounce the Shangguan clan."

"I have a plan."

Chu Xiaoran's eyes flashed with cunning, "Since they are trying to frame me, why don't we use their own tactics against them?"

Nan Jinming and Yan Boxi looked at each other and asked in unison, "What's the plan?"

Chu Xiaoran came forward and whispered, "We can pretend to fall into their trap, and then lure them into the trap..."

"Your Highness, the Princess, His Highness Feng Jun is here to visit!"

The servant at the door came hurriedly to report with a panicked look on his face.

Nan Jinming's originally relaxed expression suddenly became solemn. She frowned and thought to herself, "How could this man get the news so quickly? Could it be that... he came here to test us?"

After a moment of silence, Chu Xiaoran said softly, "Got it. Lead him to the front hall and wait. I will change my clothes and come right back."

Yan Boxi, who was standing aside, raised his eyebrows, a trace of contempt flashed in his beautiful eyes, and he snorted coldly, "Humph, he is really good at rushing."

Thinking of the hypocritical and ugly face of Shangguan Yilin that he had witnessed in the palace, Chu Xiaoran couldn't help but feel disgusted.

Now this person actually dared to step into the princess's mansion openly. I don't know what kind of sinister and cunning intention he has. Nan Jinming changed his clothes and came to the front hall.

Shangguan Yilin was standing with his hands behind his back. When he saw Chu Xiaoran coming, he greeted him with a smile.

"I wonder what the purpose of His Highness Feng Jun's visit is?" Chu Xiaoran said straight to the point.

"I heard that the princess was assassinated, so I came to visit her." Shangguan Yilin looked concerned.

Nan Jinming sneered in his heart, but pretended to be grateful on the surface: "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness Feng Jun, but there are already some clues on this matter."

"Oh? I'd like to hear more about it." A hint of curiosity flashed in Shangguan Yilin's eyes.

"This princess has received news that the assassination was aimed at me. But it is still unclear who did it." Chu Xiaoran deliberately revealed some information.

Shangguan Yilin was shocked. He didn't expect Chu Xiaoran to find the clue so quickly.

He said quickly: "Don't worry, Princess. I will investigate this matter thoroughly and give you an explanation."

"Then I'll have to trouble Your Highness Fengjun." Nan Jinming nodded slightly.

After seeing off Shangguan Yilin, Nan Jinming and Chu Xiaoran smiled at each other. They knew that the plan was half successful.

"Your Highness Feng Jun, do you want to continue sending people?"

"Being not."
