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

Concubine Chun originally wanted to help Cheng Jiuyuan enter the court, but unexpectedly the Queen disrupted her plan with the wedding date.

Fortunately, Cheng Jiuyuan was smart and thought of a compromise.

In fact, when I think back, it would be better to be in a college than to go to court.

She was a little girl, and it was difficult for her to survive in the court, which would also give rise to gossip.

At least at this stage, it is not appropriate to serve as an official in the court.

This episode passed quickly and the hall was still bustling with activity.

After the dinner, snow started falling again.

Chu Heng opened his umbrella, walked down the stairs, and then extended his hand to Cheng Jiuyuan, "Be careful."

His voice was gentle and pleasant, with a faint smile on the corners of his lips, and his eyes were full of pampering and love.

Cheng Jiuyuan placed her hand in his and stepped into the snow.

Most of the oil-paper umbrella leaned towards Cheng Jiuyuan, and snowflakes landed on Chu Heng's shoulders.

The man's gentle voice wrapped in the fragrance of red plums spread in the night breeze. The two people's hair was flying, sometimes entangled together, and even the cold night seemed to become gentle.

Under the eaves, many ministers and their wives watched the lovely couple leave together.

Some people couldn't help but sigh: "It's really a perfect match."

As Chu Ze walked out of the palace, he saw the backs of the two people. When he heard this sigh, he immediately tightened his fists in his sleeves.

Chu Heng sent Cheng Jiuyuan onto the carriage, and a eunuch came hurriedly, saying that Emperor Zhaolie had summoned him.

Chu Heng gave a few instructions and sent Chi Zhang and Shan Lan to escort them before turning around and leaving.

Cheng Zongyang and Lin were about to get on the carriage when they were stopped by someone.

"Prime Minister, wait a minute."

Cheng Zongyang turned around and saw Wei Tiankuang striding towards him.

"Master." Lin called out worriedly.

"It's okay. It's cold outside. Go get in the carriage first."

Lin nodded, turned around and got on the carriage.

Cheng Zongyang looked at Wei Tiankuang and nodded slightly: "General, what can I do for you?"

"Mr. Prime Minister, I haven't seen you for a few years. You are more graceful than ever."

"The general has given you a reward."

"Yes, the second Miss Cheng is about to marry into the royal family, so she is indeed confident enough." The deputy general beside Wei Tiankuang said coldly.

Wei Tiankuang said: "What nonsense are you talking about."

Although it was a scolding, there was no sign of dissatisfaction on his face.

Cheng Zongyang kept smiling: "General, if you have nothing else to do, I will go back first. It's freezing cold..."

Wei Tiankuang laughed a few times, "What's that? It's much colder here in the frontier. You guys are really pampered in the capital. This general has been in the military for half his life so that the people of Dongling can live and work in peace and contentment, and so that no one can bully my family."

Cheng Zongyang smiled apologetically: "Yes, the general's achievements are unmatched."

"But someone dared to provoke my Wei family while I was away from the capital. What's the matter? If there is no tiger in the capital, the monkey can be called the king."

Cheng Jiuyuan was sitting in the carriage at the back, not intending to get involved. Hearing this, she lifted the curtain and said softly, "General Wei, I wonder if the 'tiger' you are talking about refers to the general himself? Do you mean that this 'tiger' is the king of this capital?"

No matter how arrogant Wei Tiankuang was, he didn't dare to answer this.

"I just said a common saying. There is no need to make such a big deal out of it. Second Miss Cheng, I advise you not to be too ostentatious."

"Show off? I dare not compare myself with the general."

When it comes to arrogance and ostentation, who can compare to the Wei family?

"This general is giving you good advice. If you don't want to listen, just forget it. Don't regret it in the future." After saying this, Wei Tiankuang strode away.

Looking at Wei Tiankuang's back, Cheng Zongyang looked at Cheng Jiuyuan and said, "He is here to warn you about Wei Pianpian. Otherwise, you should prepare some gifts tomorrow..."

"Dad, it's getting late, let's go back home." Cheng Jiuyuan lowered the curtain before he could finish his words.

"You girl are becoming more and more unruly." Cheng Zongyang sighed and got on the carriage in front.

Lin heard everything and felt that Cheng Zongyang was a bit cowardly.

"Master, Wei Tiankuang is so arrogant. He even said something like 'I hope I won't regret it in the future' in front of you, and you didn't even mention protecting Yuan'er."

"He is a general with military power, his daughter is the queen, his grandson is the crown prince, and his granddaughter is the queen of Northern Qi. What can I do?"

"But we should be reasonable in everything. Wei Pianpian wanted to harm Yuan'er, but in the end he was bitten by the snake he brought with him. Who can be blamed for this? It is generous of us that we did not ask him for an explanation."

"You don't understand. This officialdom is not a place for reasoning. Yuan'er is willing to listen to you. Please persuade her to prepare some gifts and go to the Wei Mansion tomorrow."

"I'm not going." She couldn't say it.

"All of you, I'm her father, how can I harm her? Are those Wei family secret guards a joke? Wei Tiankuang wants to kill someone, and he can do it without anyone noticing. The guards in our Xiangfu are not good enough, do you want to see Yuan'er die?"

Lin was stunned. "Wei Tiankuang is a general after all. How can he really argue with a child?"

"The Wei family is even more petty than I am."

Lin secretly complained and knew that he was narrow-minded.

But if she were to persuade Cheng Jiuyuan to go to the Wei family to apologize, she felt that Cheng Jiuyuan would never agree.

It's so frustrating and pathetic.

After returning home, it was already very late, so everyone went back to their rooms and went to bed.

Chu Heng returned to Zichen Palace, and not long after, Chi Zhang and the other two also returned.

"Your Highness, Miss Cheng has returned home safely."

Chu Heng nodded, and seeing that the two hadn't left yet, he looked up and asked, "Anything else?"

"Your Highness, after you left, General Wei came over and spoke to the Prime Minister."

"A few words? Oh, a warning, right?"

"Yes, he told Miss Cheng Er not to be so ostentatious, so as to avoid regret."

Chu Heng put down the book, raised his eyes and said, "Send someone to watch every move of the Wei Mansion."

"Yes."

Chi Zhang was about to go down, but was stopped by Chu Heng: "Forget it, Wei Tiankuang has returned to the capital, and people from all sides will definitely be eyeing the Wei Mansion. Our people should not join in the fun, but send people to protect the Xiang Mansion. If the second Miss Cheng goes out, be sure to send someone to report."

"Yes!"
