The Legitimate Daughter Returns: The Real Daughter is Reborn

It's the dead of night again.

Somewhere on the outskirts of Beijing, Chen Cheng, dressed in black and wearing a black scarf, directed his men to carefully transport the iron ore in the mine car.

"Sir, it's not good!"

As his men panicked, dozens of forbidden troops rushed in.

Chen Cheng's face, which was hidden under the black scarf, changed drastically, his eyes flashed, and he said loudly: "Don't panic, everyone!"

At his voice, everyone who was about to make any movement stopped.

Chen Cheng pulled off the black scarf, stepped forward, and said to the leader of the imperial army: "Master Feng, why are you here?"

"Master Chen?" Feng Hu squinted his eyes. The sky was dark. He looked for a long time before he recognized Chen Cheng's appearance. "I would like to know why Master Chen is here?"

"Since Mr. Feng is here, I think he knows what is going on here."

Chen Cheng looked at the mine carts, "These are the iron ore hidden by King An."

Feng Hu's expression remained unchanged, but there was a flash of suspicion in his eyes.

"Master Chen, please come with us."

"It's natural. After finding these iron mines, I should have returned to your Majesty."

Chen Cheng looked calm and unfazed.

This made Feng Hu even more surprised, but also a little more vigilant.

But until he entered the palace, Chen Cheng didn't make any unnecessary moves.

It was as if he was really a loyal and patriotic minister, but he just happened to discover the iron mine and didn't have time to report it to the emperor.

In the imperial study room, the lights were still bright.

Emperor Jianwen has been dealing with the affairs of King An and the iron mines these days, and now there are a few bruises on his face.

"Your Majesty, Master Feng is back."

"Let him in."

Emperor Jianwen did not raise his eyes, his eyes still fell on the memorial in front of him.

The number of memorials sent in these days has doubled compared to the past, and most of them accuse King An of tyranny, such as seizing farmland, forcibly expropriating, and raping women...

The memorial was thrown on the table by Emperor Jianwen. Eunuch Wan glanced at the words on the memorial and silently looked away.

Robbing civilian girls?

In this capital city, when it comes to lecherous people, King An may not even be ranked among them.

Moreover, this Prince An also has a little hobby. He dislikes girls from good families the most, but prefers girls who come from brothels.

To talk about robbing civilian girls, this is really not like King An's style.

But at this time, everyone is pushing against me. No matter what I have, I will report it to the police, so that I can seem not so unique at this time.

Eunuch Wan lowered his head and said nothing.

Soon, Feng Hu took Chen Cheng into the palace.

"I see your Majesty."

The two of them saluted, and at Emperor Jianwen's signal, they stood up slowly.

Emperor Jianwen glanced at Chen Cheng and then his eyes fell on Feng Hu, "What did Mr. Feng discover?"

"Back to Your Majesty, I followed your instructions and found the place where the iron ore is stored. But..." Feng Hu glanced at Chen Cheng from the corner of his eye and continued: "When I arrived, I found that Mr. Chen had taken a step ahead of me and had already We are taking people to move the iron ore."

"oh?"

Only then did Emperor Jianwen's eyes fall on Chen Cheng.

The two of them came in together. Although Emperor Jianwen was a little surprised, he didn't think much about it. Only now did he react after hearing Feng Hu's words.

"Master Chen, what are you doing there so late?"

"Back to Your Majesty, Wei Chen received a report from his subordinates and found the place where the iron ore was hidden. Because he was afraid of disturbing His Majesty, he thought of reporting it tomorrow. But Wei Chen was worried about being discovered by others during this period, so he took people there and wanted to First transport the iron ore out and send it to the treasury.”

"It is an honor for me to have such a loyal minister like Mr. Chen in the Great Sheng Dynasty."

"Your Majesty shows love, but I dare not."

When Chen Cheng heard this, he opened his clothes and knelt down.

His expression was calm, and every move he made was impeccable.

In the hall, Emperor Jianwen narrowed his eyes slightly.

Suddenly he waved his hand and said, "Mr. Chen, you have worked hard. Please go back and rest early."

"Yes, Wei Chen is resigning."

Chen Cheng lowered his head, slowly backed away, and left the imperial study room.

"His Majesty……"

"I have to trouble Mr. Feng to make a hard trip to transport all the iron ore to the treasury."

"I obey the order."

Feng Hu did not ask why Emperor Jianwen let Chen Cheng go so easily. Firstly, the emperor's actions were not something that a minister could question. Secondly, Feng Hu felt that the emperor must have his reasons for doing so.

In one night, most of the iron ore was transported to the treasury.

During the morning court meeting, Emperor Jianwen did not mention the iron mines, and turned a deaf ear to Prince An's affairs.

When the court came down, Xiao Jin caught a glimpse of Xiao Shengyu's back, her eyes flashed, and she followed him.

"Third brother, what do you think about sixth brother's matter?"

Xiao Jin's tone was very gentle, like an older brother who cares about his younger brother.

Xiao Shengyu paused and turned to look at Xiao Jin.

There was only indifference in his eyes.

Xiao Jin almost couldn't keep the smile on his face, so he could only straighten the corners of his mouth and meet Xiao Shengyu's eyes.

"You're just reaping the consequences."

After saying this, Xiao Shengyu turned around and left calmly.

Xiao Jin was left standing there alone, stunned for a long time.

Xiao Shengyu's words circulated over and over in his mind. Xiao Jin frowned, always feeling that there was something in Xiao Shengyu's words.

In the prison, King An shouted at the top of his lungs: "I want to see my father! Father, my son has been wronged!"

But his words could not reach the ears of Emperor Jianwen.

Only the jailer on the side could hear it.

Soon, footsteps were heard not far away. King An was still shouting, so he immediately opened the cell door and looked in the direction of the footsteps.

A familiar figure appeared in front of King An.

"Fourth brother!"

King An shouted.

Xiao Jin walked forward and saw a somewhat embarrassed King An, with more worry on his face.

"Sixth brother, how are you?"

"Fourth brother, help me tell my father that I was wrongly accused!"

As if seeing a life-saving straw, King An suddenly grabbed the hem of Xiao Jin's clothes and prayed.

He was a majestic prince who had always lived in fine clothes and fine food. How could he endure the treatment in the prison? After staying here for the past few days, he felt like he was going crazy.

This is even more terrifying than the last time he was assassinated!

Xiao Jin patted An Wang's slightly cleaner cuffs and stepped away without leaving a trace, so as to get rid of An Wang's hand grabbing the hem of her clothes.

"Don't worry, sixth brother, I will tell my father, but... this matter is really big. Sixth brother, have you really never done this?"

"Of course I don't!"

Upon hearing Xiao Jin's words, King An couldn't care less about Xiao Jin's movements and quickly started to defend himself.

"I did deliberately hide the mine, but I didn't want to take it for myself! I just wanted to tell my father after mining it. This would also make my father worry less, and also let my father see that I am not All I can do is eat and drink!”

King An said, his voice trembling a bit.

It was as if he wanted to cry.

Xiao Jin turned away and said, "I will tell my father. Sixth brother, don't worry. My father is just angry for a moment. He will be fine after the anger subsides in a few days."
