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

Lin felt that it was a bit stuffy here with so many people, so she took Nanny Wang to a place with fewer people and came back when the banquet was about to start. Unexpectedly, as soon as she arrived, she heard Shangguan Jing talking about the family affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion in front of so many people.

She walked quickly forward, stood beside Cheng Jiuyuan, and looked at Shangguan Jing with cold eyes.

"Am I wrong? Those who were kind to Yun Ge were eliminated one by one by you..."

"Lady Shangguan, you need evidence for what you say! What do you mean by being removed?"

At this point, it was Lin and Shangguan Jing who were confronted.

Lin was so angry that she was shaking all over.

By saying this, wasn't Shangguan Jing specifically accusing Lin Manqing of being cruel and intolerant?

If this rumor spreads, wouldn't it be considered that she harmed her aunt and illegitimate son?

Nanny Wang immediately stepped forward to comfort Lin, "Madam, don't be so excited, you are still pregnant!"

Then he turned to look at Shangguan Jing and said, "Madam Shangguan, Aunt Zhou has contracted a strange disease and is recuperating on the farm. As for the eldest young master, I think she knows the whole story better!"

Cheng Yunge didn't want to offend Lin Manqing.

Lin Manqing is now Cheng Zongyang's treasure. If she whispers in his ear, Cheng Zongyang might really marry her off.

She slowly stood up and said in a low voice: "Brother had a serious illness and died..."

Shangguan Jing didn't expect that she would be stabbed in the back when she stood up for her. She immediately looked at Cheng Yunge with a cold gaze.

Cheng Yunge felt helpless, what could she do?

This is all Cuiluo's fault. She said nonsense to the master for no reason!

Nanny Wang looked at Shangguan Jing: "Did you hear clearly, Lady Shangguan? After all, these are family affairs of the Xiangfu. You are just the eldest lady's master..."

"I am the official speaking, how can you, a servant, have the right to speak!" Shangguan Jing was embarrassed and a little angry.

Jiang Miaoduan, who had been sitting there without saying anything, sneered, "What a great official power."

Anyone could hear the contempt in her voice, and everyone became even more curious about her identity.

Lin looked at her and felt that she looked familiar.

After thinking for a while, he suddenly widened his eyes: "You...you are Miss Jiang!"

Jiang Miaoduan stood up slowly: "I didn't expect that after almost twenty years since I left Beijing, the capital is still so noisy."

"Miss Jiang? Which Miss Jiang?"

Hearing others only call Jiang Miaoduan "Miss Jiang", it seemed that she had no rank or noble status, and the person who had bullied Jiang Miaoduan in the first place jumped out again.

"You know that if you offend an official, you will be dragged away and beaten with a stick! The female official Shangguan is a person who does important things. She doesn't want to argue with you women in the back house, but you are still taking advantage of her!"

Jiang Miaoduan looked at Shangguan Jing: "Someone who has done great things? May I ask, what great things has Lord Shangguan done in all these years? Tell us so that we can see them in admiration."

Shangguan Jing had a dark face and said nothing. Jiang Miaoduan turned to the lady who spoke for her and said, "Then you tell me."

The lady glanced at Shangguan Jing with an embarrassed look on her face.

Shangguan Jing has indeed not achieved any achievements in the more than ten years he has been an official.

"Shangguan Lady... Shangguan Lady is a woman who has become an official by relying on her own talents and knowledge. This is enough to bring honor to us women!"

"What this means is that Ms. Shangguan has been an official for many years but has made no achievements?" Jiang Miaoduan looked at Shangguan Jing with cold eyes.

"Shangguan Jing, I remember you said before that you wanted to make great achievements and improve the situation of women. Now it seems that the you who made such a promise back then has become completely different."

"You are claiming to be working for the welfare of women, but you look down on them. What do you mean by 'I don't want to argue with the women in the harem'? What do you mean by 'When you talk, the servants can't interrupt'? The first female official? You are really good at flattering yourself!"

Shangguan Jing's face turned pale after hearing what Jiang Miaoduan said, "Jiang Miaoduan, don't push your luck!"

More than ten years have passed, and Jiang Miaoduan is still the same as before, speaking and doing things based on her heart. Such a person is not suitable for survival in officialdom. She did nothing wrong at the beginning!

"Jiang Miaoduan? Could it be..."

"Could it be Madam Ling'an?"

"That junior sister?"

"It's actually her?"

"I was wondering why she was so arrogant. It turned out to be her..."

"No wonder Shangguan Jing remained silent even when he was pointed at and scolded. This guy dared to point at His Majesty and scold him."

"Speaking of which, Jiang Miaoduan was the champion of the Women's Academy. It's a pity that she didn't want to be an official and returned to her hometown in Gusu, which allowed Shangguan Jing to take advantage of the opportunity."

"This second Miss Cheng's luck is really enviable. She actually became Madam Ling'an's disciple."

"What are you talking about? Whose junior sister is she?" A young lady asked in confusion after hearing everyone's whispers.

I only heard someone mention the words "late queen" in a low voice.

Cheng Jiuyuan looked at her master in shock. She was a martial artist and had excellent hearing.

She didn't expect that her master was actually the junior sister of the late queen!

Cheng Yunge looked at Jiang Miaoduan and then at Shangguan Jing.

Jiang Miaoduan had a cold expression, but just a few words made Shangguan Jing so angry that her face turned red and her neck became thick. It was obvious who was superior and who was inferior.

Cheng Yunge walked up to Shangguan Jing and tugged at her sleeve.

Then he looked at Jiang Miaoduan: "My master has always been speaking up for women and seeking welfare for women. What my master wants to do is difficult in this era, but at least she has been working hard. And you, with your talent and knowledge, avoid officialdom, and want to embarrass my master, do you think it's right?"

Cheng Jiuyuan stepped forward and was about to speak, but Jiang Miaoduan grabbed her wrist.

"I'm avoiding officialdom? You can ask your master why I wanted to 'escape officialdom' in the first place."

Jiang Miaoduan's gaze fell on Shangguan Jing, who avoided his gaze and did not dare to meet his gaze.

Jiang Miaoduan continued, "Now I've figured it out. If I keep giving in, people will only push me further."

"That's right." Lin stepped forward and looked at Cheng Yunge coldly, "I have been tolerant and have tried my best to treat you equally, but what have I gained? You actually dared to describe me as a vicious stepmother in front of outsiders. You really disappoint me!"

Cheng Yunge was anxious: "Mother, I didn't..."

"You didn't? You didn't have your master who knew so much about your family affairs and stood up for you?"

"That's a misunderstanding, Master..."

Shangguan Jing shook off Cheng Yunge's hand and looked at her expressionlessly.

She was humiliated by Jiang Miaoduan, but for whom?

In the end, all she got was a sentence of "Master, you misunderstood". She finally understood that this was an ungrateful person who could never be tamed.

Shangguan Jing looked at Jiang Miaoduan and straightened her back in an instant: "Jiang Miaoduan, what happened back then has nothing to do with me. I have a clear conscience."

Although she was the beneficiary, it was Shangguan Huan who did it, and the most she could do was pretend to be ignorant afterwards.

The 'First Female Official' will go down in history. Who can resist such a great temptation?

It’s just Jiang Miaoduan’s bad luck, why should she feel guilty?

Now she is a female official of the fourth rank, while Jiang Miaoduan is a commoner.

Her sister was the virtuous concubine, and the senior sister that Jiang Miaoduan relied on had passed away many years ago.

No matter how you look at it, Jiang Miaoduan has no capital to be arrogant in front of her.

Why does she still want to live under Jiang Miaoduan's shadow?

"You spoke rudely to me, but I will let it go for the sake of our past friendship. If you do it again, I will not let you off easily."

Jiang Miaoduan's lips curled up with a hint of sarcasm: "You don't think that the title of 'First Female Official' is enough for you to show off your power for the rest of your life, do you? As an official, you still have to rely on your ability to win the support of the people."

"You are a commoner, yet you dare to speak so arrogantly..."

Seeing that the two sides began to argue with each other again, the ladies and girls nearby watched in silence.

At this moment, a message stopped the war from spreading.

"The Emperor has arrived! The Empress has arrived! The Concubine Xian has arrived! Concubine Chun has arrived..."
