The legitimate daughter becomes cannon fodder? Rebirth to overthrow the system's fatality
Chapter 116 Xiu Bai is helpless
It was a cloudy night with a moonless sky. The air was damp and cold. A flash of lightning tore through the clouds and illuminated the sky.
Inside the Zichen Palace, the prince glanced out the window in surprise.
"This damn weather is already cold, and it's raining, so I don't want to get up early to go to court."
Chu Heng said one word and turned a deaf ear to the bad weather outside.
The prince looked at him, his eyes filled with excitement again.
"Hey, you know what? My people discovered two gold mines."
Chu Heng's hand holding the chess piece paused slightly.
The prince then said with regret, "It's a pity that the third brother's people left too quickly. It seems that this gold mine can only be reported to the emperor. What a pity."
Chu Heng curled his lips and smiled: "Third brother may also feel it's a pity."
"How about I discuss it with the Third Brother and we each take a seat?"
"Brother, do you think you and Brother Three can be so peaceful that you can divide the gold mine equally?"
The prince looked at him in confusion: "We divided the gold mine between us, and we both have leverage over each other. Can he still go and tell Father about it?"
"What if he doesn't touch the gold mine and waits until you have almost used it up, and then he tells you about it, what will you do?"
"Yes, the third brother has always been insidious. I'd better not take any risks. I will report to my father in the morning court tomorrow and ask for a reward."
Chu Heng said nothing and played his chess game.
"You said you played chess all day, what's the point?"
Chu Heng didn't even raise his head, and said calmly: "I was implicated by you, and I lost my position in the Shenjiying Camp. I got a sinecure in the Ministry of Personnel. What else can I do besides playing chess?"
The prince choked.
Chi Xu and Chu Heng are the ones responsible for the safety deployment of the Winter Hunt. If something goes wrong with the Winter Hunt, they naturally cannot escape.
"I'm sorry for you, brother. Don't worry, you won't be in this position for long. Pan Huan will be leaving soon. You are the right person to be the Minister of Personnel."
"I haven't done anything meritorious, so how can it be that easy to be a minister? Besides, being a minister means I'm very busy with official duties every day, so I'd better not do it."
The prince was very disappointed: "You can't just muddle through like this."
Chu Heng said calmly, "Don't worry about things outside of your own business. God will take care of it."
"Fifth brother, if you are like this, I am really afraid that you will become a monk someday."
"That's not the case."
……
In Jiuhua Palace, Chu Ze leaned quietly against the bed, wearing a pure white inner garment, which was as pale as his face at the moment. Even though the injury made his face look a little haggard, it still did not damage his good looks.
After listening to Chi Zhang's report, he also felt sorry.
"How did Chu Jing's people know about this?"
"Your Highness, do you think it could be Cheng Yunge?"
Chu Ze thought about it for a moment and felt that it was possible.
He curled his pale lips and sneered.
This Cheng Yunge has laid out several baits. This woman is really greedy.
"Forget it then. Take the person back and don't get involved. Just pretend you don't know."
"Yes."
"Your Highness, how could Cheng Yunge, a girl in the boudoir, know that there is a gold mine thousands of miles away?"
"She may have accidentally heard her father say that this woman has little ability but is very cunning." A trace of disgust flashed across Chu Ze's eyes.
"By the way, did you find out whether there were any other people in the dense forest besides us and Chu Jing's people on that day?"
"Your Highness, the Royal Guards sealed off the forest after the incident. I personally checked every spot and found no suspicious people."
Chu Ze frowned slightly.
Why did the person he arranged miss the target? He was a skilled archer with great martial arts skills, but his neck was broken with just one move. How high was the opponent's martial arts skills?
Having such a powerful unknown enemy really made him feel uneasy.
"Keep investigating! Compile a list of all the people who were in the forest at the time of the incident and send it to me!"
"Yes!"
……
The rain and snow made the night even colder.
Chu Qing threw down his pen, his face full of anger.
"I won't copy anymore! I've been copying books for more than half a month. When will father let me out?"
The palace maids hung their heads and dared not speak a word. Only an older maid came forward and spoke softly to comfort them.
"Princess, you have committed a serious offense this time. The Queen only asked you to copy books, and this is also for the Emperor to see. You just have to hold on. The New Year is coming soon. Once the Queen asks for mercy, you will definitely be able to go out."
"I am not doing this for my brother..."
"Princess, don't say that anymore," the nanny tried to dissuade her.
Chu Qing gritted her teeth: "Damn Chu Wan, it's all her fault! Not only did I get stabbed in vain, but I was also stripped of my title. She enjoys unlimited glory outside, while I can only be trapped in Yongfu Palace!"
The more Chu Qing spoke, the more excited he became, and his expression gradually became more sinister.
"You all get out!"
"Princess, today's thirty articles have not yet been..."
"I said get out!"
"……Yes."
After everyone left, Chu Qing shouted coldly, "Xiu Bai!"
Jiang Xiubai appeared in the palace in an instant. He bowed to Princess Yongfu and said, "I am here."
"Go and secretly take Chu Wan out of the palace. Find a few people... no, find a few beggars. I will make her suffer a fate worse than death!"
Jiang Xiubai looked at her expressionlessly, "Princess, please forgive me. Because of what happened last time, the master has already severely warned me not to act rashly. I am only responsible for your safety."
This princess is really dreaming. This is inside the palace, not outside. There are so many experts in the palace. She wants to take a princess out of the palace quietly? It's just a foolish dream.
"You dare to disobey my order?"
"My subordinates dare not."
"What? You only recognize your uncle as your master? I am your new master. If you dare not listen to me, I will have you chopped up and fed to the dogs."
Jiang Xiubai felt helpless.
To be honest, the princess was vicious and stupid, and he was really in a difficult situation.
"Princess, if you do this, you will expose your master."
He was originally secretly trained by the Wei family and placed in the royal secret guards. If he took action against Princess Yongle and it was exposed that the Wei family was secretly training secret guards, even if the Wei family was extremely powerful, they would still face a major purge.
Chu Qing said angrily: "I will ask my uncle to replace me with an obedient secret guard!"
Jiang Xiubai was exactly what he wanted.
"I'll take my leave." After saying this, he instantly disappeared into the darkness.
Chu Qing was so angry that he smashed things around the room, and then he calmed down after venting his anger.
When she can go out, she will make sure Chu Wan looks good!
And there is Zhu Jin.
Zhu Jin got away twice, and she suffered bad consequences each time.
The daughter of a small official, to kill her is like killing an ant!
Don't want to marry her brother? Fine! She'll pick another ideal husband for her!
Thinking of this, a cruel smile appeared on his face.
Thinking of the plan in her mind, she sighed again, picked up the pen and resigned herself to continue copying the book.
The most urgent task is to lift the curfew first.
