The legitimate daughter becomes cannon fodder? Rebirth to overthrow the system's fatality

The capital was in an uproar for several days because the Prime Minister's wife's coffin had been moved three times.

I thought that with the case settled, I could finally have some peace and quiet.

Unexpectedly, a rumor once again put the Prime Minister's Mansion at the center of public attention.

Cheng Yunge looked at the person in the mirror, and thought of Cheng Jiuyuan's face that was so beautiful without any makeup, and sighed secretly.

The maid Hong Qiao, who was dressing her, asked in confusion, "Young lady, why are you sighing? Now that the second young lady has left the capital, it is a good time for the young lady to become famous."

Cheng Yunge sighed again.

It was because of Cheng Jiuyuan's departure that it became difficult for her to make a name for herself.

"Miss, you are so beautiful." After finishing her makeup, the maid praised.

"Is Cheng Jiuyuan more beautiful?"

"...How can the second young lady compare with you?" the maid said with a little guilt.

Cheng Yunge waved his hand, stood up and walked out: "Never mind, a woman's appearance is just the icing on the cake."

She is different from these ancient people, not so superficial.

She is full of knowledge, but she doesn't believe that she can't make it on her own.

Just as he was about to leave the room, a girl hurriedly ran in from outside and bumped into Cheng Yunge.

If she were a girl from an ordinary family, she would have been in great trouble.

But the girl didn't look panicked at all, she just quickly helped Cheng Yunge up.

"Girl, are you okay?"

The girl was kindhearted and told them every day that there was no need to be polite and that everyone was equal. If they made mistakes on weekdays, as long as they didn't make trouble in front of the aunt, the girl would not punish them.

Cheng Yunge stood up, feeling angry and was about to yell, but when he thought of his own kind personality, he suppressed his anger.

She frowned and asked, "Why are you running so fast?"

"Girl, something terrible has happened. Now people are saying that you are the boss behind Changtian Pavilion!"

"what!"

Cheng Yunge suddenly panicked.

This matter is so secret, how could it get out?

Of course she knew what the consequences would be if word got out that a woman opened a Changtian Hall. She dressed as a man every time she went there. How did she get discovered?

At this moment, another nanny came in hurriedly.

"Miss, the Prime Minister has just returned from outside, and he looks very unhappy. He asked you to go to the front hall."

Cheng Yunge's heart sank. His father must have heard the rumors outside.

She walked back and forth in the room twice and suddenly stopped.

I have an idea in mind.

"Miss, I'll go find my aunt." Hong Qiao said and turned to go out.

"return!"

"girl?"

"Don't go to Auntie."

She has a way to get out of this matter, but if her aunt gets involved, her way will be greatly hindered.

After all, in this era, no matter how much or how well she does, in her aunt's heart, she is not as good as Cheng Changchuan.

I'm sorry, Cheng Changchuan.

She has also called him "big brother" for more than ten years. Isn't the role of big brother supposed to help his younger sister solve problems?

She returned to her usual calm and composed look and walked towards the front hall with the maid.

Just as he was about to enter the door, a teacup came towards him, accompanied by a loud shout from Cheng Zongyang.

"Bastard!"

Cheng Yunge was quick-witted and turned his head and stretched out his hand to block the attack, thus avoiding the risk of a bloody head.

She looked at the debris on the ground with lingering fear, and a trace of fear flashed across her eyes.

She was almost disfigured!

She had long known that Cheng Zongyang had no feelings for anyone, and all he cared about was his future and the reputation of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

This incident became known to the whole city, and you can imagine how furious he was.

She immediately burst into tears and knelt down in front of Cheng Zongyang.

"Dad, I wonder what my daughter did wrong to make you so angry."

"You evil creature! How dare you ask!" Cheng Zongyang always looked aloof and indifferent, as if he kept strangers away. No matter how difficult the problem was, he could solve it step by step.

Now that rumors are flying everywhere, he feels embarrassed every time he thinks about the way his colleagues look at him and the way they are hesitant to speak.

Although the folk customs in Dongling are relatively open and women can go out to study and run small businesses, Changtian Tower is a brothel!

"Dad, I have been a well-behaved girl since I was little. I usually stay at home except for going to the academy. I really don't know what I did wrong to make you so angry."

"If my daughter is wrong, I will accept the punishment. I just ask Daddy to calm down and take care of yourself."

Looking at his daughter's concerned and pitiful eyes, Cheng Zongyang frowned.

He calmed down, but the coldness in his eyes remained.

"Do you know Changtian Pavilion?"

"Changtian Pavilion? What is that place?" Cheng Yunge was full of confusion.

"You really don't know?"

"Dad, apart from going to the academy, I spend most of my time at home. Even when I go out, I am followed by maids. I really don't know where the 'Changtian Tower' that Dad is talking about is."

Cheng Zongyang looked at her with cold eyes, which seemed more like he was looking at a criminal rather than his daughter.

Cheng Yunge endured the tremendous pressure, gritted his teeth and straightened his spine.

As expected of the prime minister who has held a high position for many years, most people cannot withstand such power.

At this moment, Zhou, who got the news, hurried over.

"Master, what are you doing? Yun Ge is a child you have watched grow up, and you don't know her character? Master, you actually believed such an outrageous rumor?"

"I will naturally check it out! It would be best if it's not her. If it is, you know what to do!" After saying that, Cheng Zongyang stood up, flicked his sleeves and left.

Cheng Yunge fell to the ground.

"Ge'er, are you okay?" Zhou hurried forward and helped her up with caring eyes.

Cheng Yunge held Zhou's hand tightly: "Mom, Dad's look just now was so scary." It was as if he was looking at a dead object.

If she didn't have a backup plan and Cheng Zongyang really found out, he would probably kill her with a cup of poisoned wine and a piece of white silk.

However, being ruthless also has its advantages. As long as she has enough bargaining chips in the future, Cheng Zongyang will abandon Cheng Jiuyuan without hesitation.

"It's okay, it's okay." Zhou kept patting her daughter's back to comfort her.

"A girl's reputation is so important. Who spread this rumor? If I catch the person behind it, I will pull out his tendons and bones." Zhou said gritting her teeth.

Cheng Yunge felt a little guilty.

She just felt that she had been suppressed for too long in this era, and she almost forgot that she did not belong to this era.

She would visit her parents every morning and evening, practice music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and kneel before seeing anyone. The frustration in her heart almost made her burst.

What's wrong with her opening a small brothel? She can make money and gather intelligence, which will be of great use to her in the future.

Who is ruining her business?

After this incident, I’m afraid Changtian Pavilion will not be able to continue operating.

It hurts just thinking about it.

It seems that she really can't let Cheng Jiuyuan leave. As soon as Cheng Jiuyuan leaves, she will start to have bad luck.

"Mom, the New Year is coming soon. Will Cheng Jiuyuan come back during the New Year?"

Zhou was stunned. "After something like this happened, you still have the mood to care about that little bastard?"

"Mom, I know what you're thinking. I'm just afraid that Cheng Jiuyuan will be away from home for too long and out of our control."

"I'll talk to your father about this. Hey, why are there so many things going on recently? The shopkeepers will come to settle accounts this afternoon. You better be quiet."

"Yes."

She will definitely be quieter recently, but I'm afraid your precious son won't be.
