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

Chu Wan didn't come to him to cry and beg for two days, and Chu Ze thought she might have accepted her fate.

He breathed a sigh of relief inwardly, then sighed quietly, a trace of guilt welling up in his heart.

After all, he still truly loves his youngest sister.

"Xiao Linzi."

The eunuch outside the door came in and saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty."

"Send some jewelry to the Yongle Palace, as well as some new tribute fruits and novelties from various places."

The New Year is approaching, and many tributes have been sent to the palace from all over the country. Chu Ze thinks that he should send some to make up for the debt he feels.

"Yes."

Eunuch Lin led the palace maids into Yongle Palace.

Every time I passed by Yongle Palace, it was always noisy, but today it was exceptionally quiet.

Before he entered the hall, he was stopped by the chief palace maid with a smile.

"We are here on the orders of the Emperor to bring some fruit and jewelry to the princess. Where is the princess?"

"The princess was tired from crying yesterday and has not yet gotten up. You can leave her to me."

Eunuch Lin nodded and asked his men to hand the things over to the palace maids in Yongle Palace.

Those young palace maids didn't dare to look up from beginning to end. Eunuch Lin looked over and found that the hands of one of the younger ones were shaking like a sieve.

"Hold it! This is fresh fruit that has just been offered as tribute. You can't buy it even if you have money. If you drop it, you won't be able to afford to pay for it with your life!"

The palace maid was so frightened that she quickly held it in her arms.

Eunuch Lin's eyes flashed, and his gaze vaguely swept across the hall.

The senior palace maid immediately interrupted his inquiring look.

"Father-in-law?"

Eunuch Lin retracted his gaze, said nothing more, and left with his men.

The senior maid breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the younger maids, and her face darkened.

After they entered the hall, the head maid spoke up: "What's wrong with you guys?"

"Sister, if we are discovered, we will die!"

"The Concubine said she would save our lives, and she always keeps her word. Besides, we are already indebted to the Concubine. It was the Concubine who saved us from the hands of the late Queen. Have you forgotten that? For the happiness of the princess, what does it matter if we lose our lives?"

Several young palace maids nodded with firm eyes.

But facing death, how can these young people not be afraid?

Concubine Chun arrived at Ningshou Palace again.

"The Queen Mother is not feeling well, please go back. The Queen Mother said that she can't do anything about Princess Yongle's marriage to Northern Qi."

Concubine Chun smiled slightly and approached the chief eunuch: "I'm not here for this matter."

The chief eunuch raised his eyes suspiciously.

Concubine Chun approached him, leaned over and whispered a few words in his ear. The eunuch's face changed and he turned and hurried in.

The senior maid beside Concubine Chun asked in confusion: "Your Majesty, can we see the Queen Mother this time?"

Concubine Chun curled her lips, revealing a determined smile.

After a while, the eunuch came out and said, "The Empress Dowager, please come in."

Concubine Chun looked at the maids beside her and said, "Wait here."

"Yes."

Concubine Chun entered Ningshou Palace alone.

The head palace maid waited outside the palace for nearly a quarter of an hour before she saw Concubine Chun come out.

There was a clear slap mark on Concubine Chun’s right cheek, but there was a smile on the corner of her mouth.

"Madam! What are you doing..."

Concubine Chun shook her head: "It's okay, let's go."

A slap in the face brings peace to everyone in Yongfu Palace, it's worth it!

As if to make himself feel better, Chu Ze often had people send things to Yongle Palace. Whenever he asked about Yongle's reaction, Eunuch Lin said that he had not seen anyone.

It happened again this time, Chu Ze frowned.

"Your Majesty, the princess is being irritable to you. When she gets married and grows up, she will understand your difficulties."

Chu Ze felt something was wrong. According to Yongle's personality, even if he was sleeping at the time, he would probably smash and throw away the things he sent when he woke up, and then run to him and quarrel with him. It had been several days since he was this quiet.

Chu Ze stood up: "Go to Yongle Palace!"

The group arrived outside the Yongle Palace in a grand procession. When the senior palace maid of the Yongle Palace saw that the emperor had come in person, her face turned pale immediately.

"See the Emperor."

The palace maids of Yongle Palace knelt on the ground, with their heads hung, and their faces showed that they were ready to die.

"Where's Yongle?"

"Princess...Princess is not feeling well..."

Chu Ze snorted coldly and rushed in.

After seeing that there was no trace of Chu Wan in the palace, Chu Ze looked coldly at the palace people and said in a cold voice, as if it came from hell: "Where is the princess?"

All the palace residents were crawling on the ground, not daring to look up and no one spoke.

"She escaped!" Chu Ze said affirmatively.

It has been several days, I am afraid he has already left the capital.

"Great! This palace is really free to come and go. Go and invite Concubine Chun!"

As soon as Chu Ze finished speaking, Concubine Chun's voice came from outside the palace: "No need to invite me! I'm here."

Concubine Chun came in and looked at Chu Ze: "Your Majesty, if you want to blame someone, blame me, don't implicate the innocent palace maids."

"Innocent? They protected Yongle and let him escape. They deserve to die! Someone, come!"

The palace maids on the ground collapsed to the ground in fear. This is the most real reaction of a person when facing death, not that they are unfaithful.

"Your Majesty!" A group of royal guards entered the hall.

"Yongle escaped, and everyone in Yongle Palace is to blame. Drag them all away, and beat them! Shot dead!"

"Your Majesty!" Concubine Chun shouted, looking somewhat anxious, her eyes occasionally looking outside the palace.

"Drag it!"

"Wait!" Ali's majestic female voice came from outside the hall.

Everyone looked towards the palace entrance and saw Empress Dowager Shangguan slowly coming in with great pomp and circumstance.

She looked at Chu Ze and said, "The New Year is coming soon. This is also the first New Year since you ascended the throne. It is unlucky to kill so many people."

Chu Ze didn't expect that she came to beg for mercy, and his face was immediately full of suspicion.

"They offended the majesty of heaven, shouldn't they die? I have already set a date for the marriage with Northern Qi, which is after the New Year. Now they are missing. How should I explain this to Northern Qi?"

"Since time is pressing, why don't you quickly order someone to bring them back?" Empress Dowager Shangguan glanced at the palace servants on the ground. "As for them, we should first break into the Xinzheku."

"Why does mother want to protect these people?" Chu Ze really couldn't understand.

Not only could he not figure it out, even the palace maids on earth couldn't understand why the Queen Mother wanted to protect them.

"I just said that I did it all for you. This is your first year on the throne. It is not appropriate to kill too many people. It would harm the harmony of nature."

Empress Dowager Shangguan looked at Concubine Chun and said, "As for Concubine Chun, she will be confined to her house for the time being."

Chu Ze didn't have time to waste here, so he ordered his men to chase in the direction of Liping.

Concubine Chun clenched her fists, hoping that Yongle could arrive in Liping as soon as possible.

Another worry rose in her heart.

Yongle went to Liping. She believed that Prince Chen would protect Yongle, but this would also anger Chu Ze.

She has caused trouble for Prince Chen.

But at the moment, Yongle had no other place to go. She was a selfish mother. She didn't want her daughter to go to Northern Qi, and she didn't want her daughter to die in a foreign land like Yongfu.

She looked at Chu Ze and said, "Your Majesty, what Northern Qi wants is Princess Dongling, which is just an identity. You can recognize her as your adopted sister and make her a princess..."

Chu Ze snorted coldly and walked out with a gloomy face.

If Chu Wan cannot be brought back, adopting a stepsister is the last resort.

But Chu Wan's escape to Liping made him extremely angry.

They all went to Liping, and they all chose Chu Heng!

Do you think Chu Heng can protect you? Yongle, you are too naive!

I will let your trusted fifth brother personally send you back to the capital!
