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

The moon is neither bright nor dark, and the wind is neither warm nor cold.

The moon was high in the sky, the night was warm, and the carriage drove slowly through the downtown area. It suddenly became quiet outside, making the carriage even quieter.

Chu Heng broke the silence, "Why not tell her directly? Yongle looks careless, but she is actually not confused about major issues."

"There is no impenetrable wall in the world. If you want to keep a secret from others, the best way is to let it rot in your heart. If there is a day when it is useful, I will tell you."

"Are you afraid of facing off against the Queen's faction?"

"It's not that I'm afraid, it's that there's no need."

"What if you are forced to be implicated and stand on the opposite side of the Queen's faction?"

If his mood is not fulfilled, his heart will never calm down.

What he did might implicate her.

Cheng Jiuyuan's inquiring eyes fell on Chu Heng, "Who was implicated?"

The more she interacted with Chu Heng, the more she felt that he was not as selfless as he appeared to be.

Could it be that he is not without desires, but wants something big?

He wants the throne?

Chu Heng looked away and chuckled, "I was just asking casually."

Cheng Jiuyuan answered very seriously: "I don't cause trouble, but I'm not afraid of it. I have people and things to protect. If these people and things are threatened, no matter how strong the opponent is, I will fight with my life."

Hearing this, Chu Heng's heart moved.

Is he included in these 'people and things'?

Cheng Jiuyuan asked tentatively: "Your Highness, are you worried about something?"

Chu Heng smiled and said, "Miss Cheng, are you okay?"

Cheng Jiuyuan withdrew his gaze.

Well, how can a person not have worries?

Most of the time, things don't go as planned, but there are only a few that you can talk about with others.

The carriage stopped as the two men tested each other.

"Your Highness, Second Miss Cheng, we have arrived at the Prime Minister's residence."

Chu Heng got off the carriage first. Mu Jin wanted to go forward to help her girl, but he got there first.

Cheng Jiuyuan got off the carriage with the help of Chu Heng and thanked him with a smile.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for sending me back home."

"go in."

Cheng Jiuyuan bowed slightly, turned around and walked inside.

She must have heard it wrong in the Imperial Garden before.

New Year’s Eve, the night of family reunion.

Chu Heng will definitely attend the New Year's Eve banquet in the palace, which is also the royal family's family banquet.

How could he possibly spend New Year's Eve with her?

……

The next morning, Cheng Jiuyuan took two maids to Jiang's house.

It takes only two incense sticks of time to drive from the Prime Minister's residence to Jiang's residence.

It is better for the Prime Minister’s Mansion to be located in a busy city, where the surroundings are very quiet.

When he arrived at Jiang's house and saw his acquaintances from Gusu, Cheng Jiuyuan was very happy.

"Aunt Yuan, how are you these days?"

Yuan Su has been taking care of Jiang Miaoduan over the years, and has also taken good care of Jiang Miaoduan, her only little disciple.

Seeing Cheng Jiuyuan coming, she was also very happy, with a friendly smile on her face.

"Thank you for your concern, young lady. I am fine. But after young lady returned to Beijing, Madam did not eat well." Yuan Su told Cheng Jiuyuan about Jiang Miaoduan, "Young lady, please talk to Madam later."

Cheng Jiuyuan walked into the room with a smile and saw that the interior was decorated very similarly to the house in Gusu. Jiang Miaoduan was sitting upright and practicing calligraphy.

Cheng Jiuyuan winked at Yuan Su, signaling her to go down.

She tiptoed up and sat next to Jiang Miaoduan. Seeing that the inkstone was empty, she picked up the ink block and slowly ground the ink.

Jiang Miaoduan looked up at her, then lowered his head to continue practicing calligraphy.

Jiang Miaoduan suddenly asked, "What do you think of the Fifth Prince?"

"Your Highness the Fifth Prince is gentle and refined, handsome and bright, and capable of both literature and martial arts..."

"There's no need to talk about these superficial things. I have good eyes."

Cheng Jiuyuan lowered his voice and said, "I think the Fifth Prince is not a simple person. He is not as selfless as he appears to be."

Jiang Miaoduan paused for just a moment and then continued writing.

"Her son is naturally not simple."

Cheng Jiuyuan looked at his master curiously before realizing that Chu Heng's mother was his master's senior sister.

"Master, you were the top scorer in the female exam back then, why did you leave Beijing? Did Shangguan Jing use some tricks?"

"Back then, I studied with Shangguan Jing at the same girls' school, and we were close friends. At that time, my senior sister... the former queen, also had a good relationship with Shangguan Jing's sister, the current Consort Xian."

"Ranking of the female test, Master is first, Shangguan Jing is second."

"But later, the article I wrote was involved in the literary inquisition, and I was thrown into prison. Later, I saw the article I wrote, and someone had tampered with it."

"Originally, this death certificate alone could not accuse my master of having treasonous intentions. At this moment, Shangguan Jing stood up."

"With her testimony, we can say that both physical and human evidence are complete."

"Thanks to my senior sister, I was able to save my life."

"Before I could realize my ambition, I was caught in a storm. My former confidant became my enemy. I was disheartened and returned to Gusu."

"Who knew that my senior sister didn't want me to be wronged, and she never gave up the investigation. One day I received a letter from her. In the letter, I could tell that she was very happy. She said that she had found the person who framed me and could finally clear my name. She asked me to wait a little longer, and she would let me return to Beijing in glory."

"I received the rehabilitation documents, but I never received a letter from my senior sister. It was nearly half a year later that I received a letter from her. That was also the last letter she left for me."

"The letter repeatedly warned me not to return to Beijing. It was filled with her disappointment in the Emperor, the capital, and the entire world. The ink was smudged. Senior Sister wrote the letter while she was crying."

"I felt very uneasy. I ignored my senior sister's advice and went to the capital in disguise."

"At that time, the situation was changing. Everyone was saying that the crown prince was forcing the emperor to abdicate. He was beheaded on the spot, and my sister hanged herself in Fengyi Palace..."

Having said this, Jiang Miaoduan could no longer write, and the hand holding the pen was shaking uncontrollably.

His voice was as calm as ever, but his eyes were red.

Cheng Jiuyuan held her master's hand and comforted her silently.

"I was found by the maidservant next to my senior sister. She managed to take me out of the city and warned me never to return to the capital."

"My good senior sister, such a good senior sister..."

Jiang Miaoduan threw down his pen, and ink splashed all over the rice paper.

She covered her face with her hands.

Cheng Jiuyuan soothed him softly: "Master, it's all over."

After a while, Jiang Miaoduan put down his hand, his eyes full of hatred: "I didn't get through! I can't get through!"

"You said that the Fifth Prince is not a simple person. I am very relieved. If he can really let go of the hatred of killing his mother and brother, he is not worthy of being my son!"

"This capital city is full of cannibals. Your mother is also considered half of my apprentice. When she and my senior sister were in Gusu, they were such a beautiful woman, but they both died in the capital city."

"At that time, you knew at a young age that you had to avenge your mother. As a teacher, I am useless and can only pass on my useless skills to you, hoping that it will make your life easier."

"Master, I will never forget your kindness!"

"Over the years, the imperial court has sent many female historians to invite me to return to the capital as a teacher." When she said this, she gave a sarcastic smile.

"The Women's School was founded by my senior sister. It was my senior sister's wish that women all over the world have books to read and don't have to be confined to the harem. He sent someone to find me back to the capital just to fulfill my senior sister's wish. But does he think that if he does this, my senior sister will forgive him?"

Cheng Jiuyuan knew that the 'he' that the master was referring to was the one sitting on the dragon throne.

After a long while, Jiang Miaoduan regained his composure, changed a piece of rice paper and continued practicing calligraphy.

When he spoke again, there was no abnormality: "You and the Fifth Prince actually share the same suffering. As a teacher, I am of little use, but I also want to lend a helping hand."

"You have almost avenged your revenge. You were granted marriage to the Fifth Prince, and you are one with him. You should know who the Fifth Prince is going to deal with. If he succeeds, your status will be unparalleled. If he fails, you...are you afraid?"

Cheng Jiuyuan shook his head.

What's the difference between what she wants to do and what Chu Heng wants to do?

One is the third prince and the other is the crown prince.

It's hard to say who is involved between her and Chu Heng.

"Since Master wants to help the late Queen to avenge her, I will not sit idly by. However, the Wei family is deeply rooted, so we have to take it slow."

"I, the master, naturally know this. I have waited for so many years, so why not wait a little longer?"

Cheng Jiuyuan had lunch at Jiang Mansion before getting on the carriage back home.

In the carriage, she recalled the intense hatred in her master's eyes.

She taught her all her skills, so her master's enemy is also her enemy.

She had thought about this before. If she got her revenge, Chu Ze died, and the prince took the throne, Dongling would probably be the Wei family's world, and the people would suffer even more.

After all, half of Wei Tiankuang's military achievements were gained through collusion with Northern Qi, and he was not at all the patron saint of the people living in the Dongling border area.

Wei Tiankuang has achieved his current position by stepping on the flesh and blood of his own people.

Damn this Wei family!

Jiang Xiubai had to be instigated to rebel.

He is an excellent chess piece to deal with the Wei family.
