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

Cheng Jiuyuan supported Lin and followed Cheng Zongyang to the Yangxin Palace under the guidance of the palace servants.

As soon as I entered, I saw the embarrassed trio.

Qi Zhen stood to one side, his face gloomy, his hands clenched tightly, as if he was trying hard to restrain something.

Chu Qing and Cheng Yunge knelt on the ground with disheveled hair and tears streaming down their faces, saying that they were framed.

Cheng Jiuyuan and Chu Heng looked at each other, but quickly looked away, and then followed their parents to pay their respects to the distinguished guests.

Emperor Zhaolie slammed the table, and Cheng Zongyang and his wife immediately fell to the ground and dared not get up. Cheng Jiuyuan naturally could not get up either.

"Father, your Majesty, Miss Cheng made a mistake, and the Prime Minister and his wife are to blame for failing to discipline her properly. But this has nothing to do with Miss Cheng, so she doesn't have to kneel, right?" Chu Heng looked at Emperor Zhaolie and asked.

Emperor Zhaolie glanced at Chu Heng and protected him right away?

Concubine Chun also whispered, "Yes, Your Majesty, this Second Miss Cheng is so innocent."

Emperor Zhaolie raised his hand: "Forget it, you get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Cheng Jiuyuan thanked him quickly, got up from the ground, and stood aside to watch the show quietly.

Poor Lin was pregnant and had to kneel on the ground without saying a word because of Cheng Yunge's suggestion.

"Now that everyone is here, tell me, what's going on?"

Qi Zhen stepped forward and said, "My clothes were soaked by a palace maid who poured wine on them. I was led to that room by the palace maid and then lost consciousness. I must have been poisoned by the love potion."

He really didn't know how the other party made him lose consciousness. The drug in the incense burner had no effect on him at all, so he let down his guard.

"Father, I was passing by and approached the room when I heard the noise. As a result, I fainted and I didn't know anything after that! Father, Mother, I am innocent. Please help me!" Chu Qing cried bitterly.

She didn't expect things to turn out like this. It should be Chu Wan who should kneel here and admit her mistake!

"Your Majesty, I felt that the palace was too stuffy, and I wanted to go out for some fresh air, but I was knocked unconscious! I must have been drugged, so..."

The three people spoke in unison and firmly believed that they had been drugged.

However, these three people themselves could not smell it, as the pungent smell of alcohol was emanating from them from the inside out.

"You said that you were all set upon by someone? You were knocked unconscious and drugged, right?"

"Yes! If this matter is not explained, I will never give up!"

Emperor Zhaolie slammed the table and said, "You were in my palace, with my daughter... You still want to explain?!"

No matter how you look at it, Qi Zhen got the upper hand in this matter. After all, Chu Qing is a legitimate princess, and Cheng Yunge is the prime minister's eldest daughter. Not only are they of noble status, they are also beauties.

Qi Zhen clenched his fists, and there was murderous intent in his eyes as he looked at Chu Qing and Cheng Yunge.

Emperor Zhaolie looked at Eunuch Quan and said, "Call the imperial physician."

"Yes."

Not long after Eunuch Quan went out, he came in with two imperial doctors.

"See the Emperor."

Emperor Zhaolie raised his hand and said, "Get up and check if the three of them have been poisoned."

"Yes."

The two imperial doctors took turns taking the pulse of the three people.

"how?"

The two doctors looked at each other.

"Your Majesty, there is no discovery."

"How is it possible?" Chu Qing was the first one who didn't believe it and shouted out loud.

Even though she was the one who ordered someone to put the medicine in, the imperial physician actually said that he found nothing?

Qi Zhen also didn't believe it: "These are two quacks. Go and ask the imperial physician who accompanies me."

"In that case, let's invite the Northern Qi delegation over as well."

"Yes." Mengzhou took the order and left.

Chu Heng glanced at Cheng Jiuyuan and saw that her facial expression had not changed since she came in. She was really watching the show seriously.

Well, if she dared to poison, she must be completely sure.

Yan Guihong's apprentice, whose medical skills could be better than hers? His worries were completely unnecessary.

Chu Heng also stood by with his hands folded and became a spectator, and asked Chi Zhang to find a chair over.

Cheng Jiuyuan glanced at him and felt that he was a little strange.

Rumor has it that Chu Heng is extremely disliked by the Emperor, but Chu Heng is so casual in front of the Emperor.

For example, just now, Chu Heng asked the emperor to exempt her from the kneeling punishment, and the emperor didn't say anything.

Looking at it now, if there was a stack of sunflower seeds, she believed Chu Heng would watch the show while eating them.

Why does she feel that Chu Heng is very popular with the emperor?

Thinking in this way, everything that happened in the past makes sense.

For example, the emperor first placed Chu Heng in the Shenjiying and then transferred him to the Ministry of Personnel.

Are these two places really not accessible to people without the Holy Heart?

But if he had the Holy Heart, then why was Chu Heng's fiefdom in his previous life the remote and barren Liping?

Cheng Jiuyuan's eyes fell on Chu Heng, slightly confused.

Chu Heng turned his head and saw Cheng Jiuyuan looking at him. He winked at Chi Zhang.

Chi Zhang immediately found another chair and placed it behind Cheng Jiuyuan.

"Miss Cheng, please take a seat."

Cheng Jiuyuan lowered his brows and did not move.

Cheng Zongyang and Lin were both kneeling, so it was a good thing that she didn't have to kneel, so she didn't dare to sit down.

Chu Heng stood up, pushed her down on the chair, and then sat back in his own chair.

The two of them sat in the corner, and Cheng Jiuyuan felt very uncomfortable.

Emperor Zhaolie glanced at the corner and ignored him. Cheng Jiuyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon the Northern Qi delegation came in.

The imperial physician of Northern Qi gave Qi Zhen a thorough examination.

"How about it?"

"Your Highness has drunk too much. This is a sobering pill..."

"Impossible!" Qi Zhen interrupted him.

Emperor Zhaolie slammed the table, pointed at the three people and said, "Just smell it yourself, you smell like alcohol, what's impossible?"

Cheng Yunge tilted his head and sniffed, but smelled nothing.

Cheng Jiuyuan heard Bai Lu shouting in her heart.

"I'm so familiar with this scene! When I had that strange disease, everyone said that I had a bad smell in my mouth, but I couldn't smell it. What's going on?"

Cheng Yunge replied angrily: "Shut up, I'm annoyed now!"

"Why are you so upset? Don't you want to marry Qi Zhen? Isn't this exactly what you wish for?"

"Although I want to marry Qi Zhen, I don't want to marry with Chu Qing!"

"What can we do? Not only are you marrying together this time, but Chu Qing is a princess, so the position of Crown Princess of Northern Qi cannot be yours."

Cheng Jiuyuan curled her lips.

Aren't we good sisters? Going to Northern Qi together is a good opportunity for us to look after each other.

Chu Qing was still eyeing his eldest cousin, so he wanted to plot against Qi Zhen and Chu Wan.

Now it’s okay, my cousin is safe and Sister Yu doesn’t have to worry anymore.

Zhu Jin no longer has to stay at home all day, killing two birds with one stone.

"At this point, we were originally discussing the marriage between Dongling and Beiqi, so let's just settle it. As for the daughter of the Cheng family..."

Emperor Zhaolie's gaze fell on Cheng Yunge.

In this situation, apart from going to Northern Qi together as a princess, the rest of their lives would be spent in seclusion and meditation.

The queen looked at Cheng Yunge coldly and said, "How dare a rich girl like you behave immorally in the palace after drinking..."

Cheng Yunge glanced at Cheng Zongyang anxiously, and saw that he had no intention of speaking for her.

She gritted her teeth and said, "I am willing to be Princess Teng's concubine and go to Northern Qi together."

She raised her eyes and looked at Qi Zhen with tears in her eyes, but Qi Zhen, who had been so gentle to her in the past, was now full of disgust.

Emperor Zhaolie finally granted Cheng Yunge's request for Cheng Zongyang's sake.

Qi Zhen agreed with a gloomy face.

After all, he originally wanted to marry the legitimate princess of Dongling. As for Cheng Yunge, he had heard of Cheng Yunge's talent in Northern Qi a long time ago, so Cheng Yunge was also one of the purposes of his trip.

It was just that this kind of thing happened and made him feel aggrieved.
