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

The next morning, General Jiang and his family entered the palace.

As soon as General Jiang entered the East Palace, he was asked to leave, saying that the Queen Mother had invited him.

The entire Eastern Palace was in mourning. Jiang Qinglian, who had just reached the age of marriage, supported the haggard wife of the Grand Commandant and said, "Mother, let's go and see my sister off for the last time."

When the two arrived outside Jiang Qingli's yard, they saw the coffin parked in the main hall, with many guards guarding outside the hall.

As the two were about to go in, they were stopped by the guards.

"The Queen has ordered that no one is allowed to approach."

"My Qingli passed away without knowing why. Why can't I go in and take a look? She is my daughter!"

The guards were unmoved.

Jiang Qinglian shouted, "Where's my sister's maid? Can't we see her, too?"

"The Crown Princess's illness is contagious, so her maids naturally need to be isolated!"

"Nonsense! My sister has been in good health since she was young. She didn't seem to be ill when I entered the palace last time. How could she suddenly be infected with a serious disease? I have to go in and take a look today!"

The guards refused to give in, and just as the two sides were arguing, the prince appeared.

"Mother-in-law, Sister Qinglian."

Jiang Qinglian looked towards the prince and saw that he looked extremely grief-stricken, which she felt was hypocrisy.

Some time ago, she went to the palace to see her sister. Although her sister tried her best to pretend to be happy, she could see that she was not happy.

Her sister's personal maid told her privately that since her sister entered the palace, the prince had only rested in her sister's room a few times.

Now that her sister has passed away suddenly, she just doesn't believe that there is no fishy thing going on.

"Your Highness, please let us in to see my daughter for the last time." The Grand Marshal's wife pleaded.

The prince looked at the coffin in the hall with a sad look, and said in a hoarse voice: "Mother-in-law, I didn't let you see it because I was thinking about you. Qingli was infected with an epidemic."

"What!" The commander's wife was shocked.

Jiang Qinglian's eyes were full of suspicion: "Sister has lived in the palace for a long time, how could she be infected with the disease? Moreover, even sister's maids have been quarantined, why is the prince not quarantined?"

The prince's expression froze. Jiang Qinglian was smarter and more interesting than her sister. Thinking of his mother's words that she would persuade her father-in-law to send Jiang Qinglian to the East Palace, he felt uneasy.

Jiang Qinglian felt a chill run down her spine from the prince's gaze and hid behind the Grand Marshal's wife.

"My grandfather had an accident recently, and I was so busy that I couldn't see Qing Li. The imperial physician also checked me out and said I'm fine."

At this moment, a chaotic sound was heard in the distance.

"No, it's gone!"

"Quick! Go put out the fire!"

The prince grabbed a eunuch and asked, "Where is the fire?"

"It's the Taiji Palace! The Queen and the Grand Marshal are all in there!"

When the prince heard this, he ran away immediately.

Hearing that Commander Jiang was also trapped inside, the Commander's wife and Jiang Qingli and her daughter were about to rush over, but they heard the guards outside the hall behind them falling down one after another.

At this moment, a head popped out of the door.

"Madam! Second Miss!"

The mother and daughter looked closely and found that it was Jiang Qingli's personal maid Qianyun.

"Qianyun? Why are you…"

Qianyun came out quickly and pulled the mother and daughter inside.

"Madam, Second Miss, the eldest girl didn't die of an epidemic. She was tortured and strangled to death by the Crown Prince!"

Qianyun said this as she pushed the coffin lid.

"what?!"

The Grand Marshal's wife and Jiang Qinglian were both shocked.

"If I hadn't been smart, I would have been silenced long ago. I wanted to follow my master, but when I thought about the fact that the Grand Marshal's Mansion would be kept in the dark, I felt sorry for my master!"

Jiang Qinglian learned some martial arts and worked together with Qianyun to lift the coffin lid.

When the coffin lid was slowly opened, Jiang Qingli's remains were revealed. The wife of the Grand Marshal held onto the coffin and screamed, tears streaming down her face, but she could not make any other sound.

She saw her daughter lying there breathless in her hands, with her hands covered with bruises.

Jiang Qinglian lifted her sister's collar with trembling hands, and saw a very clear dark fingerprint.

Qianyun lifted Jiang Qingli's sleeves and choked up, "There is not a single good piece of land on the master's body. The prince is not a human being, but a beast!"

Jiang Qinglian supported her mother and cried silently.

"Since the Madam and the Second Miss know the truth, leave quickly to avoid getting killed."

"Does that beast dare to kill our entire family?"

"Madam, don't underestimate the prince's cruelty!"

Jiang Qinglian also immediately said: "Mother, let's leave quickly and go find Dad!"

"Yes! Your father is still trapped in the fire..."

"Madam and the second young lady don't have to worry. The master will be fine. This fire is just a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain. Let's leave first."

Qianyun and Jiang Qinglian worked together to restore the coffin and left in a hurry.

The guards at the door woke up one after another, breaking out in cold sweats.

Qianyun sent Jiang Qinglian to a safe place and disappeared again.

The fire in the Taiji Hall was quickly put out. General Jiang found his wife and daughter, and his face looked bad.

The few of them didn't say anything extra until they left the palace and returned home after noon, then they breathed a sigh of relief.

General Jiang sent all the servants away, leaving only the family of three behind.

"My Lord, what does the Queen want to see you for?"

Jiang Taiwei said angrily: "The Queen and several ministers have persuaded me to marry Qinglian to the Crown Prince as his second wife."

"what!"

These words shocked Jiang Qinglian and her daughter.

"My sister just passed away, and they are already thinking about remarrying?"

The wife of the Grand Marshal wiped her tears and said, "What does she think of my two daughters? Master, do you know how tragically our Qing Li died? There was not a single piece of healthy flesh on her body. She was strangled to death by the Crown Prince!"

General Jiang stood up suddenly: "What?!"

"Dad, it's true. We saw my sister's body. Sister, sister... wuwuwu..."

Jiang Taiwei murmured, "No wonder... No wonder he didn't let us see Qing Li's body. Plague? Qing Li didn't leave the palace, so where did the plague come from?"

"Dad! I'm entering the palace! I'm willing to marry the prince!" Jiang Qingli suddenly said.

"Silly child, what nonsense are you talking about! A beast like the prince..."

"Mom, I want to avenge my sister!"

"How are you going to take revenge? Are you going to risk your own life? It's not worth it!"

Jiang Qinglian gritted her teeth and soon came to her senses.

It’s not that she couldn’t bear to sacrifice her own life, but if she killed the prince, her parents and all the branches of the Jiang family would not be able to escape.

"What should we do? We can't let my sister die in vain!"

Looking at his crying wife and daughter, General Jiang was also extremely sad.

At this moment, a dart came through the air and nailed into the pillar, carrying a letter on it.

"Who!" General Jiang yelled, but there was no response.

Jiang Qinglian protected her mother, and the two of them looked horrified.

General Jiang took the letter, unfolded it and read it carefully, a hint of contemplation flashed in his eyes.
