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

In the imperial examination three days later, there was no suspense. The top scorer was Pei Xuan, the second place was Qin Ge, and the third place was a student from Baichuan Academy.

Pei Xuan was the compiler of the Hanlin Academy, and Qin Ge was the editor of the Hanlin Academy.

After the court was dismissed, Pei Xuan wore the top scholar's uniform, which made him look more gentle, elegant and modest.

"Congratulations, Master Pei, you are truly a young man to be feared."

"Thank you."

"How about coming to my house for a drink?"

"There is something going on in the mansion today, I will come to bother you another day."

Just as he was dealing with it, Cheng Zongyang came out, and Pei Xuan bowed: "Uncle."

Cheng Zongyang nodded slightly and walked side by side with him.

"Although the editor of the Hanlin Academy is only a minor official of the sixth rank, you can't let your guard down. I used to be in that position."

"Thank you for your reminder, uncle. Xuan got it."

At this time, Chu Qing was sitting bored on the corridor in the distance.

Recently, her mother has kept her and her brother under surveillance, and they are not allowed to leave the palace. She is really bored.

I heard that this year's top scholar looks like Pan An, so I came to take a look.

After waiting for a long time, no one came out.

"Princess, here I come! Here I come!"

Chu Qing looked up indifferently, and once he saw it, he couldn't take his eyes away.

The man had a slender figure, long hair tied up high, a handsome face, a gentle smile on the corners of his lips, and he was untainted by the world.

Chu Qing stood up slowly, his eyes not blinking.

……

After the imperial examination, students from Lu Lin who were supposed to return to Gusu were preparing to leave, and those who were supposed to stay in Beijing also began to move out of Pei Mansion.

Cheng Jiuyuan thought that Yan Yu would definitely leave Beijing, and she was reluctant to let her go, so she went to accompany her every day.

That day, when she arrived at Pei's house, Yan Yu no longer had her usual sad expression.

Cheng Jiuyuan asked curiously: "What's wrong? Is there any good news?"

"Yuan'er, I don't have to leave Beijing!"

"Really? That's great." Cheng Jiuyuan was naturally happy. "Did something happen?"

"My father has been appointed as the dean of Baichuan Academy!"

This is understandable. After all, two of the top three places in the imperial examination were taken by Gusu Lu Lin, and many other students also passed the imperial examination.

"very nice!"

"Yes, that's great. My father has already written to my mother, asking her to come to the capital as well."

"Then we can see each other more often in the future."

"Yes, my father has gone to look for a house today. Since we are going to live here permanently, we naturally cannot live in Pei Mansion anymore."

Cheng Jiuyuan smiled and joked, "You will move in sooner or later, what are you afraid of?"

Yan Yu's cheeks flushed, and she said angrily, "If you make fun of me again, I will ignore you."

Cheng Jiuyuan was naturally happy that Yan Yu didn't have to leave Beijing.

Almost every other day, she would go to the Grand Tutor's Mansion to play with Zhu Jin. Chu Wan would also often go out of the palace, and the relationship between the girls became closer.

Within half a month, the news that the prince would get married a month later spread throughout Dongling.

This matter has little to do with Cheng Jiuyuan. She still reads books and practices calligraphy every day, meets with friends, reads the news from Wuying Hall, and secretly keeps abreast of all developments in the court.

Another ten days passed like this.

In the backyard of the Taifu Mansion, several girls were sitting around a table.

On the table were various snacks prepared for them by Mrs. Taifu. The sun was lazily shining in the courtyard. It was a quiet time, peaceful and unhurried, and the whole garden was filled with fragrance.

"In a few days, I won't be able to leave the palace. The Crown Prince and my brother are getting married, and envoys from various countries will be coming. By that time, the capital will be in a state of chaos, and my mother will definitely not allow me to leave the palace. You can come to the palace to play with me then." Chu Wan said while eating snacks.

"Why is the date for the prince's wedding set so urgently? What can be prepared in a month?" Yan Yu asked curiously.

Zhu Jin was very happy. Now that the prince was getting married, his eyes would not always be on her.

Cheng Jiuyuan curled her lips, she could guess something.

The Wei Yuanshan case caused great losses to the prince's faction. The prince was busy trying to win over the Jiang family and expand his power.

"Hey, where are we going to play tomorrow? We can't waste such a beautiful spring day."

"How about going to Taohuatan to admire the peach blossoms?"

"Okay."

After staying at the Taifu Mansion until the sun set, Cheng Jiuyuan and his friends left the house and returned home.

Thinking about going to enjoy the flowers tomorrow, Mu Jin plans to buy some cold food when passing by the downtown area so that she can take it with her tomorrow.

Cheng Jiuyuan was sitting in the carriage waiting for her, and suddenly her eyes widened.

that person!

She can’t be wrong!

She opened the curtain and got out of the carriage.

"Girl, where are you going?" Song Lan asked curiously.

"I'll be back soon, don't follow me."

Cheng Jiuyuan quickly chased in the direction the man was going, and only slowed down when she saw the man's figure.

The man in front was tall and slender, wearing black clothes and wearing black hair, and he had a very good appearance.

This good-looking appearance caused many girls passing by to look at him frequently. The man had a smile on his face and raised his eyebrows and smiled at the girls, causing all the girls to walk away in shame.

Looking at the girl who ran away, he smiled in a way that felt inexplicably evil.

The man dressed as a servant beside him said, "People in Dongling are so pretentious. Their eyes are glued to you, young master, but they have to act so reserved."

"I asked you to find out where is fun in Dongling Capital. Did you find out?"

"Sir, Dongling is not as vast and rich as our Northern Qi. The people of Dongling like to pretend to be cultured and only like to enjoy flowers and boats."

"Mo Chi, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. It's spring now, so it's nice to enjoy the flowers and cruise the lake."

"If you want to enjoy the flowers, I heard that the peach blossoms in Taohuatan are in full bloom."

"Then let's go and have a look tomorrow..."

The two men talked and entered Ruyi Tower. Cheng Jiuyuan did not follow them.

Qi Zhen arrived at Dongling so quickly.

She had not received any news about the Northern Qi prince's arrival at the Eastern Tombs. It seemed that Qi Zhen had arrived at the Eastern Tombs before the Northern Qi envoys.

Cheng Jiuyuan returned to the carriage, Mu Jin had bought everything, and the carriage slowly drove through the downtown area.

Scenes from the past life emerged in Cheng Jiuyuan's mind.

In the previous life, when the prince married Zhu Jin, Qi Zhen did not come to Dongling.

Instead, half a year later, Dongling went to war with Northern Qi. Dongling was defeated, and Northern Qi took the opportunity to propose a marriage alliance.

She was tricked by Chu Ze into marrying Northern Qi in order to get the Northern Qi's defense map.

Because it was a defeated country, she naturally knew that her situation in Northern Qi would be difficult.

But she didn't expect it to be so difficult.

The cold knife cut the skin and blood dripped down.

Unbridled ridicule and trampling came from all directions, leaving her with nowhere to escape.

What is dignity if you compete with dogs for food?

Qi Zhen's methods of torturing people are endless.

What he liked most was to see a perfect person who was high above everyone else fall into the quagmire. That would break a person's spine inch by inch, leaving him without dignity or shame, and living like an animal.

"Girl? Girl?" Mu Jin called softly when she saw that her face looked strange.

Cheng Jiuyuan came back to his senses, "Tell Cheng Yunge that King Rui will go to Taohuatan tomorrow."

"Yes."
