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

The New Year is approaching, and many people send gifts to the Prime Minister's Mansion every day.

Yan Yu got off the carriage carrying the food box, and saw Pei Xuan and a mother and daughter walking out the door.

At this time, it started snowing. The girl looked at Pei Xuan shyly and said in a tender voice, "Mom, it's snowing and we didn't bring an umbrella."

A flash of doubt flashed across the lady's eyes. The carriage was waiting outside the mansion, so why would she need an umbrella?

But she quickly understood her daughter's thoughts and looked at Pei Xuan.

Pei Xuan looked at the concierge: "Go get an umbrella."

The woman smiled and thanked him: "I'm sorry to have caused trouble to Prime Minister Pei."

"You are Welcome."

The umbrella was quickly brought back, and the mother and daughter thanked again and walked out.

Pei Xuan took a glance and saw Yan Yu holding a food box, standing there for an unknown period of time.

He walked over quickly and asked, "How long have you been here? Why don't you come in?" As he spoke, he brushed the snow off her hair and clothes and led her inside, holding her hand.

"Prime Minister Pei." The curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing the girl's charming face.

When the girl saw Yan Yu, the smile on her face faded a little. Her eyes fell on the two people's clasped hands, and she silently lowered the curtain.

The carriage left quickly and Yan Yu withdrew his gaze.

"Did I disturb your good time?"

Pei Xuan took the food box from her hand and led her inside with his other hand: "That's the wife and daughter of Lord Jiang. They came to give a festival gift."

Yan Yu didn't say anything.

There is no need for the host to come in person to send a holiday gift, just send someone to deliver it, especially when the gift is to an unmarried girl.

He didn't need an umbrella, but he still borrowed one. Borrowing and returning, going back and forth, people became familiar with each other.

She is not blind, she can see clearly.

Pei Xuan paused, turned to look at her, and asked in confusion: "Ayu?"

Yan Yu looked up at him.

She and he grew up together and watched him grow from a small child to the successful man he is today.

He has a handsome face and an elegant temperament. Although he looks weak, he has an aura of majesty without even being angry.

At such a young age, he was already appointed Prime Minister.

It would be strange if it didn't attract attention when it is so outstanding.

Yan Yu was about to speak, but he grabbed her hand.

"Ayu, let's get married."

Yan Yu's heart was beating like thunder, and he turned away: "You should discuss this matter with my parents."

"After returning to Beijing, I have discussed it with Master and Master's Wife. They said they want to keep you for a few more years. I... I am really tired of waiting."

Yan Yu looked at him suddenly.

It turned out to be the case.

He didn't mention it for a long time, and she secretly guessed a lot about it. It turned out that her parents couldn't bear to let her go.

Pei Xuan blushed slightly, but still spoke softly: "I have wanted to marry you for many years. But I am the eldest son of the Pei family and I must protect the Pei family. I thought about marrying you after I passed the imperial examination, but I realized the dangers after entering the court, so I thought about marrying you when the situation was clear. I kept delaying it, and when the time was right, I went to find my master and his wife, and my master said he wanted to keep you for a few more years..."

Yan Yu laughed out loud, "I can't make the decision on this. My parents have spoken."

After saying that, Yan Yu walked forward and Pei Xuan hurriedly followed.

"Please don't, Ah Yu, please feel sorry for me and help me put in a good word in front of Master and his wife."

"It depends on your performance."

The two entered the house, and Yan Yu asked, "Aren't you going back to Gusu for the New Year?"

Pei Xuan sighed: "Yuan'er and the emperor are going to Gusu, leaving me to do hard labor. It's a pity that I am alone and helpless in the capital..."

"Then come to my house for the New Year."

Pei Xuan's eyes lit up: "It would be disrespectful to refuse."

Yan Yu took the food box, put it on the table and opened it: "This is the snack my mother made, all of which are Gusu delicacies. She said you must miss this, so she asked me to bring it to you."

Pei Xuan sat over and picked up a piece of dessert. "Master's wife must be very concerned about me. The emperor left a lot of trouble behind and ran away. I'm so busy every day that I don't have time to eat. I've lost a lot of weight."

"No matter how busy you are, you have to take care of yourself." Yan Yu looked at the servant behind Pei Xuan, "Yunsheng, you have to remind your young master that he still has to eat on time."

Yunsheng glanced at his young master. He knew that his young master was definitely not someone who would put himself in a difficult position.

But seeing the smiling face of her young master, she knew that he just wanted to see Miss Yan caring about him.

"Miss Yan, Yunsheng knows."

Yan Yu looked at Pei Xuan, and Pei Xuan put away the smile on his face and returned to his pitiful look.

"Don't complain to the emperor. The emperor trusts and values ​​you. Many people in the court are jealous of you."

Pei Xuan nodded in agreement.

He just said it casually, pretending to be pitiful.

……

A horse-drawn carriage sped past on the empty official road.

"Master, we have arrived in Gusu!" Shan Lan's cheerful voice came from outside.

Cheng Jiuyuan opened her eyes dazedly and asked Chu Heng: "How long have I slept?"

"An hour."

Cheng Jiuyuan was surprised and asked, "So long?"

She was always alert, so it was rare for her to sleep so soundly in a carriage.

Mu Jin handed over the pear soup and said with a smile, "Your Majesty has been sleeping well recently and looks very good."

Cheng Jiuyuan took the pear soup and took a sip. She didn't know if it was because she had avenged her great hatred and felt very comfortable every day, but she did sleep very soundly recently.

Chu Heng also nodded in agreement. Several times when he returned to the bedroom, she fell asleep while he was taking a bath.

Cheng Jiuyuan lifted the car curtain and looked at the familiar Gusu City.

I don't know when the snow stopped, the clouds dispersed, and the warm sun was in the sky.

In the long streets, the bluestone slabs are wet and ice crystals hang in front of the eaves.

In front of the steamed bun shop on the street, the charcoal fire in the stove was crackling and steam was rising from the steamer.

The waterside restaurant faces the sparkling river, and the melodious and graceful string and bamboo music is particularly sentimental.

After returning to Gusu, people become more sentimental and graceful.

Cheng Jiuyuan lowered the curtain: "Do you think that father and grandfather will be frightened when they see us?"

"Definitely."

They came to Gusu quietly this time, and did not allow Pei Xuan to tell his family, in order to give the Pei family's two elders a surprise.
