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

The explosion of bamboos startled the spring, and the noise filled the night with the sound of flutes and drums from thousands of doors.

The New Year’s Eve banquet is also a palace banquet during the New Year, and all ministers have to bring their families into the palace to attend the banquet.

Because Ji Ge'er was too young, he was left in the mansion with his wet nurse.

When Cheng Jiuyuan followed Cheng Zongyang and Lin to the palace, she saw Chu Wan's personal maid waiting at the palace gate.

"Second Miss Cheng, it's still early for the palace banquet. Please follow me to Yongle Palace and have a seat. Miss Yan and Miss Zhu are both here."

Lin smiled and said, "Go ahead."

Cheng Jiuyuan nodded slightly and followed the maid to Yongle Palace.

Before entering the hall, I heard Zhu Jin's laughter coming from inside.

Seeing Cheng Jiuyuan coming in, Chu Wan immediately came over and took her arm: "Sister Cheng, you're here."

Zhu Jin also stood up and looked at Cheng Jiuyuan today, "Sister Cheng's outfit today is very different from usual."

Chu Wan then looked at her carefully, "Yes, she used to dress too plainly. It looked good, but too cold. Today, she looks full of vitality."

Yan Yu also stood up and pinched Cheng Jiuyuan's cheek: "This is what a twentieth-century girl looks like. This cape suits you very well."

"Where did you buy this cloak? It's so beautiful. I want to buy one too." Zhu Jin said.

"My mother sewed it herself."

"The Prime Minister's wife has great cooking skills," Yan Yu praised.

Charcoal was burning in the hall, and Cheng Jiuyuan took off his cloak and handed it to the maid.

"Fifth brother is busy today, so he sent someone to tell me early in the morning to take good care of you today, for fear that you would suffer any grievances." Chu Wan joked as she pulled Cheng Jiuyuan to sit down.

"He must be very busy today."

The Wei family has just fallen, and today is a palace banquet. I am afraid that the remnants of the Wei family will cause trouble secretly.

"Yes, I heard from my grandfather that the fifth brother has been impressive recently, and his ability is not inferior to the third brother." At this point, Chu Wan lowered her voice, "The crown prince has been deposed, and now all officials are taking sides. My grandfather said that the fifth brother's popularity is no less than that of the third brother."

Zhu Jin looked at Cheng Jiuyuan in surprise: "Sister Cheng, that means you might be..."

Yan Yu fell silent, in fact she already knew it.

Pei Xuan said that the future was uncertain and he was afraid of dragging her down, so he had not yet decided on their marriage. She had guessed it at that time.

"Yuan'er, do you want to live that kind of life?"

Cheng Jiuyuan did not answer immediately.

The reason why Chu Heng and Chu Ze were so confrontational was mostly because of her.

It was for this reason that she and Chu Heng initially formed an alliance.

If it weren't for her, with Chu Heng's personality, he might have left the palace and wandered around the world on the day the Wei family and the prince fell.

Now that the arrow is on the string, she can't wait for Chu Ze to fall and then abandon Chu Heng to enjoy herself.

At first, Zhu Jin only thought about the power and glory of that position, but when he saw Yan Yu's expression, he immediately thought of the key.

"If you really take that position, you will be trapped in the deep palace. As an emperor, you can't be the only one..."

Cheng Jiuyuan looked calm, without any sign of trouble, "I believe him."

He said he would not let her live that kind of life.

If he couldn't do it, she was capable enough to get out of the predicament.

She believed in him, and also believed in herself.

Just three words made the three girls envious.

"Is this what the storybooks mean by 'undoubted love'?" Zhu Jin exclaimed.

The corners of Yan Yu's mouth curved up, she also had complete faith in Pei Xuan.

"You can rest assured about my fifth brother. He has chosen you and will not let you suffer any injustice. Besides, the situation is unclear now. Shouldn't we be worried about my fifth brother?"

Although they are all her royal brothers, it doesn't matter to her who sits on that position, but in her heart, she still prefers her fifth royal brother.

This sentence made Zhu Jin and Yan Yu frown again.

The fight for the throne has always been cruel.

If you lose...

Cheng Jiuyuan tapped Chu Wan's forehead and said, "You worry a lot every day."

Chu Wan felt that this topic was too heavy for the girls, so she immediately smiled and comforted them, "There is really nothing to worry about. My third brother is a pretty good person. Even if it comes to that, his life will not be in danger."

Seeing her innocent smile, Cheng Jiuyuan curled up the corners of his mouth.

Chu Ze is a man who is always gentle to those who have no conflicts of interest with him.

If someone gets in his way, he will show no mercy.

After this topic was over, the girls started talking about where to go next.

It was not until 7pm that a maid came in.

"Princess, the palace banquet is about to begin."

Chu Wan stood up: "Let's go."

The dinner was held in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and the palace was already brightly lit and bustling with activity.

"Princess Yongle has arrived!"

Everyone who was greeting each other looked towards the entrance of the hall and saw several young girls coming together.

Walking in the front was Princess Yongle, wearing a light purple palace dress with her hair tied up high. In such an occasion, she slightly raised her snow-white face, looking even more like a proud little phoenix.

The girl on the far left behind her had bright eyes and white teeth, and her clear almond eyes were as lively and spiritual as the clear autumn water in a lake. She was wearing a goose yellow long skirt with butterfly patterns embroidered on the hem. When she walked, the butterflies seemed to come alive, and the whole person was very lively and cute.

Many people recognized that she was the daughter of Master Zhu.

The person whose arm she was holding was the prime minister's daughter who had recently become famous.

Her eyebrows were like a bunch of silk, her teeth were like pearls, and her eyes were full of smiles. Her long hair was half tied up, with a few small braids hanging on her shoulders, dotted with pearls, just like the little rabbit on her pink cloak, harmless and naive.

As she walked, she revealed a long white dress with silver-embellished patterns and pear blossoms underneath her cloak. She also wore a heart-shaped knot with silk tassels tied around her waist, which made her waist look even slimmer. She was truly as beautiful as a spring plum blossom blooming in the snow, and as charming as an autumn orchid covered in frost.

The other one was unfamiliar. The woman had lightly tied black hair, lightly drawn eyebrows, and clear eyes tinged with light sorrow. She was extremely beautiful. Her plain white cape was simple, with only an orchid as an embellishment.

Many ladies secretly inquired about it and found out that she was the daughter of the dean of Baichuan Academy. She came from a family of scholars, no wonder she exuded the scent of books.

When these four girls, each with their own unique talents, came in, the hall seemed to become brighter in an instant.

After everyone saluted Chu Wan, Chu Wan took a seat.

Zhu Jin and the other two were huddled together. Chu Wan was a princess, so considering her status, she could only look at the three of them with envy.

Not long after I sat down, another announcement came.

"The Emperor has arrived! The Concubine Xian has arrived! The Concubine Chun has arrived!"
