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

The embroidered curtains roll up at sunset, and the water under the pavilion reflects the sky.

It was dusk, and the golden crow was about to set. The sky was filled with orange and red clouds, and the flowers and plants in the courtyard were also covered with colored clothes. The whole Feiyuan Pavilion was shrouded in a golden silence.

Cheng Jiuyuan sat in the pavilion, leisurely looking at the reflection of the sunset on the water below the pavilion.

Song Lan came over hurriedly and said in a low voice: "Miss, Lin came back from the Lin Mansion and brought someone with him. That person smells like herbs, so he must know medical skills."

Cheng Jiuyuan curled her lips and smiled.

now it's right.

If we can restrain each other, why fight and kill each other?

It’s just a pity for Cheng Zongyang, who worked day and night to plan and use everything to climb up.

Sometimes Cheng Jiuyuan couldn't help but admire her father. From the son of a farmhand, he climbed to the position of prime minister. The hardships involved were beyond the imagination of outsiders.

He was worthy of himself and the ancestors of the Cheng family. In order to avoid being caught, he did not engage in corruption, which was also worthy of the people.

But he felt sorry for the Pei family, and even more sorry for her mother.

The two women in his backyard, one gave him a drug that would make him infertile, and the other cheated on him. This was his retribution.

I wonder what he would think if he knew that the family business he had worked so hard to build was finally taken by a "son" who had no blood relationship with him.

If Lin had always kept her distance from her, she would not have bothered to meddle in her affairs and expose her.

She looked down upon the family business of the Prime Minister, thinking it was just an empty shell.

"Don't worry about that." Cheng Jiuyuan looked at Mu Jin, "Any news from uncle?"

"Not yet. It will take time to take over all these industries."

Cheng Jiuyuan nodded. She was not in a hurry, but just asked casually. After all, she knew the strength of the Pei family.

Cheng Zongyang came back from his job with a smile on his face and walked with a breeze.

Although he is nearly forty years old, he still has an upright posture and a gentle temperament.

People feel refreshed when they are happy and look a little younger than before.

As soon as I got back to the mansion, I went back to the main courtyard.

"Are you still feeling bad today?"

Lin smiled gently: "I ate some sour preserved fruits, and I feel much better."

Nanny Wang also said flatteringly: "They say sour boys and spicy girls. Madam likes sour things, so I'm afraid it's a young master."

Cheng Zongyang's smile deepened: "My children are all well."

Although he said so, he had two daughters and his only son was incompetent, so the prime minister's mansion would not be handed over to him. He also hoped that Lin could give birth to a legitimate son.

Lin pulled the woman next to her over and said to Cheng Zongyang, "Oh, Master, this is the nanny my mother assigned to me. She is very good at taking care of the body. Can you let her take a look at the Master?"

"Greetings, Your Majesty." The woman bowed slightly and saluted.

The woman looked to be around thirty years old. Although she was plain-looking, she was neither humble nor arrogant, completely different from the other servants.

"That's not necessary." Cheng Zongyang waved his hand.

"Master, Madam Ji's grandfather and father were both in the Imperial Medical Bureau. She was in charge of the medicine and food in the palace before, but she left the palace because she got married and had a child. If it weren't for my mother's kindness to her, I would never have invited her. Didn't the master say that you are easily tired recently? Let her treat you."

Cheng Zong raised his eyebrows. Is he so powerful?

He stretched out his hand and said, "Let me have a look."

Madam Ji stepped forward to check his pulse and spoke slowly after a while: "My Lord, have you had dry mouth and bitter taste recently? Your lower limbs are a little swollen, you are easily tired, and you have some rash on your body?"

There was some surprise in Cheng Zongyang's eyes. He didn't expect that he really had some skills.

"You are right. What is wrong with me? How can I improve it?"

"Don't worry, sir. It's not serious at the moment. I'll prescribe a prescription. It can be improved with acupuncture. If you trust me, I'll give you acupuncture now."

Cheng Zongyang waved his hand: "No need, you write the prescription first."

Lin also knew that he was a cautious person, so she would show the prescription to the imperial physician for review before she felt at ease.

She winked at Mrs. Ji, who stepped aside and wrote a prescription.

Cheng Zongyang accompanied Lin for dinner before going to the study.

As soon as he left, Lin sent all the servants away, including Nanny Wang.

She and Mrs. Ji were the only ones left in the room, so she couldn't wait to ask, "How is it?"

Madam Ji shook her head: "You can't tell just by feeling the pulse. I know a kind of medicine that can kill off descendants. The blood of people who take Chinese medicine will turn green when it comes into contact with Fengling leaves. But the Prime Minister is cautious, so it's not easy to get blood."

Lin frowned.

That’s right, if the poison wasn’t kept secret, Zhou wouldn’t dare to administer it.

"Leave the blood collection to me. I hope Madam will not tell anyone about this, including my mother."

"Yes."

In the next few days, Lin woke up from her dreams every night.

When Cheng Zongyang came back from work that day, she went to greet him.

"Master, I have been troubled by nightmares recently. Today I went to Huguo Temple, and the abbot said that the fate of the child in my belly is precious and I can't suppress it. I looked at your horoscope and he said that your fate can suppress the child."

Cheng Zongyang asked curiously, "Is there such a thing?"

"I am distressed, and the master cannot be with me every day. The abbot said that I only need to take a few drops of the master's blood and let me wear it on my body."

Cheng Zongyang saw that there were dark circles under her eyes and her complexion was not very good.

For this child, all it takes is a few drops of his blood.

He immediately asked someone to bring a knife to cut his hand, but Lin quickly stopped him.

"Master, I can't bear to see you hurt yourself."

She looked at Mrs. Ji, who came forward with a silver needle and a small glass porcelain bottle.

Cheng Zongyang didn't believe in these supernatural things, but he also knew that the woman in the back house believed in them.

In order for her to feel at ease and give birth to the baby safely, he reached out without hesitation.

Before Cheng Zongyang felt any pain, the blood was drawn.

"Are you relieved now?"

"Thank you, sir."

The next morning, as soon as Cheng Zongyang left, Mrs. Ji hurried in.

"Ma'am, your guess is correct."

Lin's face changed drastically.

Good job Zhou Yurong!

He actually dared to go to such lengths for fear that she would marry into his family and pose a threat to her.

"Go to Qiushuiyuan!"

At this time in Qiu Shui Garden, several maids were kneeling on the ground holding buckets of water, while Zhou was sitting on the couch holding a mirror with a gloomy face.

When Lin and his men rushed in aggressively, Zhou calmly put down the mirror and stood up.

"All of you get out!" Lin said coldly.

The punished maid immediately stood up and walked out.

"Madame Wang, you guys go out too."

Nanny Wang looked at Zhou warily: "Madam, you are pregnant..."

"It's okay, go out."

"……Yes."

When there were only two people left in the room, Zhou asked in confusion, "Madam, why did you come to my Qiushui Garden so early in the morning?"

Lin approached Zhou step by step: "Zhou Yurong, you are so brave!"

"What you said, madam? No matter how brave I am, I am not as brave as you." Zhou's eyes fell on Lin's abdomen with a hint of meaning.

Lin lowered her voice and said, "Zhou Yurong, how dare you give the master a drug that will kill him!"

If this bitch hadn't been so bold as to drug the Prime Minister, how could she have come to this point!

Zhou's face changed drastically: "You, you are talking nonsense! You are slandering me!"

"You know whether I am talking nonsense or not! When the Prime Minister was poisoned, there were only you and your son in the mansion. You know medical skills. If the Prime Minister wants to investigate, do you think you can escape?"

Zhou quickly calmed down and sneered.

"Madam, I don't know how the Prime Minister got poisoned. But if he got poisoned, where did the baby in your belly come from?"

The two were very close to each other, staring at each other tensely for a long time.

"Zhou Yurong, I don't know how much you know. If you spread any news that is unfavorable to me, you will die! I hope you understand what I mean!"

"Lin Manqing, you don't want this bastard to inherit the Prime Minister's Mansion, do you?"

"Why not? Do you still have hope for your good-for-nothing son? Zhou Yurong, these two secrets should either rot in our stomachs together. Or they should explode together and we will perish together. You are a smart person and you know which way to choose."

After saying this, Lin turned and walked out.

"Lin Manqing, don't slander me. I didn't poison you. Don't try to use this to threaten me to keep your secret!"

Lin didn't look back, "You can try!"

After saying that, he left the room without looking back.

Zhou gritted her teeth, yelled, and smashed the mirror on the table to the ground.

Of course she didn't dare try.

If the master knew that she had been poisoned, according to the time calculation, she would be the first one to be found.

Although Lin Manqing couldn't escape the fact that she cheated on him, he could still have given birth if it weren't for her poison.

He must hate her more than he hates Lin Manqing.

She didn't dare to gamble.

Zhou was very angry because she finally got hold of Lin Manqing's handle but couldn't use it to bring her down.

How did Lin Manqing know that the Prime Minister had been poisoned by a drug that would make him infertile?
