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

Seeing Chu Heng coming from a distance, the Crown Prince and the commander of the Imperial Guards Chi Xu stopped talking.

Chu Heng walked closer and bowed to the prince: "Royal brother."

"How did you come?"

"I will be returning to the capital the day after tomorrow, so I went to discuss the return trip with Commander Chi. I heard Commander Chi was here, so I came to look for him. Is there something important you want to discuss with Commander Chi?"

"Nothing, just a few words when we met. You guys chat, I'll go back first."

He didn't intend to let Chu Heng participate in his plan. With Chu Heng's soft-heartedness, he would say some nonsense like "after all, they are brothers".

He gave Chi Xu a look, and Chi Xu nodded slightly.

Chu Heng saw everything but pretended not to know.

After discussing with Chi Xu, Chi Xu bowed and said, "Then I will arrange it according to the discussion."

Chu Heng smiled and nodded, looking at Chi Xu's back, his eyes became unpredictable, and he turned and walked towards Cheng Jiuyuan's tent.

Cheng Jiuyuan poured him a cup of tea and asked casually, "Any news?"

Chu Heng picked up the tea and took a sip slowly, "Well, it should be tomorrow."

"Did you say Wei Xiangming participated?"

Chu Heng curled his lips and smiled: "If Wei Xiangming knew, he would only dissuade him. The enclosure looks dangerous, but it is not a good place to start. Chu Ze must be on guard, it will be easy for someone to catch him."

He put down his tea and continued, "Only someone like the prince, who is ambitious and self-righteous, would think this is a good opportunity."

Cheng Jiuyuan nodded in agreement: "You are right. I secretly observed and found that the prince brought countless guards with him, while the third prince only brought less than 30 people. Even if he didn't take action, wouldn't he be on guard against the prince?"

"It's not that he won't take action, he's retreating to advance."

"You mean, he came here specifically to give the prince a chance?"

Chu Heng stared at the teacup in his hand, his eyes deep and sharp, "It's possible."

Cheng Jiuyuan supported his chin, and countless plans flashed through his mind.

If that's the case, will she sneak into the prince's men tomorrow and kill Chu Ze?

But this thought was fleeting. Based on her understanding of Chu Ze, since he dared to use himself as bait, he must have a foolproof plan. She couldn't take the risk.

She'd just have to see how the situation develops then.

"What are you thinking about?" He leaned close to her, his deep eyes shone with a captivating warmth, as if endless tenderness was hidden in them.

The handsome face that suddenly enlarged in front of him made Cheng Jiuyuan lean back slightly, "Nothing, I was just thinking about the good show tomorrow."

"Why do I feel like you not only want to watch the show, but also want to sing a role yourself?"

Cheng Jiuyuan coughed lightly: "Your Highness is joking."

Chu Heng sat up straight and chuckled.

Through the faint scent of tea, Cheng Jiuyuan felt that he had a handsome face and was extremely elegant, as if the man who was strategizing and reading people's hearts just now was her illusion.

Cheng Jiuyuan put down the teacup and looked at him.

"What? You suddenly realize now that your future husband is good-looking?" Chu Heng smoothed his hair in front of him, and returned to his cynical look, joking with a smile.

Cheng Jiuyuan curled her lips and smiled, but did not answer.

She was indeed a little unsure about this man.

"If you want to watch the show tomorrow, stand farther away and don't get affected."

"Your Highness, won't you go with me?"

"I'm busy, take care of yourself."

"Ah."

"I'll give Chi Zhang and Shan Lan to you tomorrow?" Chu Heng said worriedly.

"No need, Your Highness knows that I am not weak in martial arts, so I should have no problem protecting myself."

Cheng Jiuyuan was hoping that something would happen to him, so that she could also take advantage of Chu Ze's misfortune. How could she possibly have two tails?

The two of them looked relaxed as they drank tea, but their minds were already filled with mixed feelings.

……

In the early morning, the mist was thick, the surrounding scenery was blurred, and clouds were flowing among the rolling hills.

As the rising sun broke through the fog, the paddock and the surrounding area gradually became lively.

Today is the last day of winter hunting, and everyone is still very enthusiastic.

Cheng Jiuyuan rode his horse into the dense forest, tied up the horse when there was no one around, and disappeared in a leap.

The prince was riding on his horse, but he did not rush forward like he had done in the previous few days. Instead, he seemed to be waiting for some news. He was feeling a little restless, so he simply turned over and got off the horse.

Wei Xiangming, who was traveling with him, looked at him strangely: "What's wrong?"

"Uncle, I, I..."

Wei Xiangming frowned: "You hesitate. This is not like you."

The prince didn't say anything in the end. His arrangements were foolproof.

The plan succeeded and he eliminated a major threat.

If we fail, they will all be dead, and there will be no evidence to prove their guilt, and we won't be able to find him at all.

Cheng Jiuyuan hid in the treetops and followed Chu Ze all the way.

She didn't follow very closely, for fear of being accidentally injured by the prince's men.

Chu Ze was only followed by about twenty guards, which made it hard for people to resist taking action.

But she still remembered Chu Heng's warning and refrained from taking action for the time being.

After following for nearly an hour, Cheng Jiuyuan was beginning to doubt whether the prince's men would take action when an arrow flew through the air.

"careful!"

"Protect His Highness!"

The guards immediately surrounded Chu Ze and looked around warily.

Arrows flew towards Chu Ze from the dense forest all around, covering the sky and the earth.

Screams rang out one after another, and the people around Chu Ze fell down one after another.

The best option for Chu Ze at this time was to break out on horseback, but he seemed to be scared silly and became a target while riding on the horse.

Cheng Jiuyuan was certain that he was using her as bait.

After a rain of arrows, there were less than ten people left around Chu Ze, and a group of masked men in black jumped out from all directions.

Chu Ze did not dare to be careless. He immediately dismounted and fought with him.

These men in black were extremely skilled in martial arts, and Chu Ze's two fists were no match for four hands, and he gradually found it difficult.

At this moment, Mengzhou suddenly appeared with a group of Jinyiwei.

Cheng Jiuyuan clearly saw a smile appear on Chu Ze's face, and then he looked in the direction of the dense forest, exposing his entire back.

Cheng Jiuyuan immediately flew over in the direction of his gaze, and sure enough, there was a man in black hiding in the treetops.

The man in black was holding a bow and arrow, aiming at Chu Ze's back.

Cheng Jiuyuan instantly realized that this man in black was deliberately arranged by Chu Ze to play a trick on him.

A sneer appeared on Cheng Jiuyuan's lips.

Since he was going to use a cruel trick on her, she would help him.

Cheng Jiuyuan flew over and slapped the black-clothed man's arm, and the arrow flew out instantly. The black-clothed man was shocked and watched the arrow deviate from the agreed entry position.

Before the man in black could turn around, Cheng Jiuyuan twisted his head and he fell from the treetop.

Cheng Jiuyuan glanced at Chu Ze who was lying on the ground, his life or death unknown. No wonder he dared to take the risk alone, it turned out that he had consulted the Jinyiwei.

She didn't think much about it and flew away immediately.
