The legitimate daughter is reborn and the fake Bai Lian is completely panicked

"King Rui Murong Che? The living king of hell in Yanjing City?"

Shen Mi nodded: "Well, do you know why he wants to see you?"

Ye Shiqing lowered his head and sighed: "It must be related to my dead second uncle."

"In our Ye family, some died, some were exiled, and only my sister and I survived."

"My sister is still young, and I just want to lead a peaceful life with her, and not get involved in these old things."

"Yanjing City is fraught with danger. If you are not careful, you will be doomed."

He lowered his eyes and looked at Shen Mi. Although she was a little girl, he found her incredible.

At least, when it came to deceiving Li Niang, Shen Mi had thought very carefully and even found out everything about Li Niang's old lover and even her personality.

She is so meticulous that she doesn't look like a little girl at all.

He smiled and said, "Young lady should be a noble lady from an aristocratic family. I'm afraid she can understand the dangers of Yanjing."

Shen Mi pursed her lips, with the corners of her lips slightly raised.

"Of course, Master Ye, I wish you a safe journey."

Ye Shiqing bowed and said, "Ye Shiqing, I also wish the young lady a safe journey."

Watching Ye Shiqing's back disappearing into the endless night, Shen Mi's heart finally calmed down.

Yun Lan and others covered the dug-out coffin again and restored the grave to its original appearance before walking up to Shen Mi.

"Miss, we should go back now. Tomorrow is the Third Miss's coming-of-age ceremony."

"I'm afraid tomorrow, things won't be peaceful again."

"Li Niang has given her true heart this time, I'm afraid Master Ye is reluctant to let her go."

Shen Mi's eyes fell on the empty forest in front of her. She smiled and said, "Li Niang and my elder brother are just playing a trick on each other."

"My eldest brother was so willing to do it for her, but she still didn't fall in love with him and fell in love with Ye Shiqing."

"It is not easy for people who act with a purpose to get into the role."

Shen Mi turned to look at Yun Lan: "Have you dealt with the bracelet? Tomorrow is Shen Shu's coming-of-age ceremony, and there must be no mistakes."

Yun Lan pursed her lips and said meaningfully: "Everything is according to the young lady's instructions."

"That's good."

……

Prince Rui's Mansion.

The candlelight in the room flickered slightly. The man put down the letter in his hand, leaned back in the chair, and looked at Fu Ying.

"Shen Mi, went through so much trouble just to get back her mother's dowry?"

"They actually let Ye Shiqing go, which almost ruined my plan."

Fu Ying stood beside Murong Che and handed another letter to him.

"Fourth Master, what about Ye Shiqing?"

Murong Che said: "Bring him back. Don't worry, I will not treat him unfairly."

"Yes, Fourth Master."

Fu Ying continued, "Fourth Master, you underestimate the Second Miss of the Shen family. Tomorrow, the Third Miss of the Shen family will hold her coming-of-age ceremony, which is the highlight of the Second Miss Shen's arrangement."

"This Second Miss Shen is so scheming, it's really hard to predict."

"Everything Ye Shiqing said and did was tailor-made for Li Niang, even his fake death."

"Obviously, Miss Shen is only a little girl of 16 or 17 years old."

Murong Che raised his eyebrows slightly and said in a cold voice: "Shen Mi."

He snorted coldly: "It seems that I will also get involved in the mess of Pingyang Marquis Mansion."

Murong Che picked up the teacup on the table and played with it casually in his hands. The black cloud-patterned silk brocade and the crimson purple jade belt with gold thorns made his waist look even more slender and powerful.

He said in a deep voice: "Are the generals who are secretly communicating with the Crown Prince satisfied with my arrangement?"

Fu Ying said: "A few days ago, he was still shouting about unfairness in the army, but now he has gradually compromised."

"The Fourth Master has two people share the position that originally belonged to one general. On the surface, it is to help them solve problems, but in fact it is to decentralize power and undermine the power."

"Fourth Master, you could have executed them, why did you show mercy?"

Murong Che took a sip of the tea in his hand and said calmly: "The Qilin Army has followed me for many years. If I kill them all, wouldn't it mean that I am cruel and heartless and don't care about our old friendship?"

"It has caused the king to lose the morale of his army."

"Promote some capable people, and then work slowly."

"However, they are not fools. They should be able to guess my intention."

"If we find that there are still people secretly communicating with the prince and causing trouble in the army, we will let them do it. If the trouble gets serious, we will chop off their heads to serve as a warning to others."

"Yes, Fourth Master."

……

It was already the middle of the night when Shen Mi brought Yun Lan into the Shen Mansion from the side courtyard.

The candlelight in the room flickered slightly. She pushed open the door and saw Qinghe waiting anxiously.

"Miss, you are finally back."

"Today, as you said, Miss Third's maid Bai Lu sneaked in and even touched the coming-of-age gift that Miss Third had prepared for her."

Shen Mi looked at the table and saw an exquisite bracelet in the box.

She smiled and said, "It's fine if you've done it. I'm afraid you'll never get your life back if you do it."

"It's getting late now, you should help me wash up, we have a good show tomorrow."

Qing He nodded: "Yes, Miss."

Qinghe walked to the table, put away the bracelet on the table, put it in the secret room of the room, then turned around and went to get water for Shen Mi to wash.

……

The next day, the entire Pingyang Marquis Mansion's maids, servants, housekeepers and nannies were all busy preparing for Shen Shu's coming-of-age ceremony.

In the private room of Mingxiang Garden, several maids brought in many fine clothes for Shen Shu to choose from.

Shen Shu got up from the bed, her eyes fell on the brocade on the table in front of her, and finally picked out a Begonia brocade skirt woven by Yun Fei.

The orange and white brocade is embroidered with light-colored crabapple flowers, which is luxurious yet low-key.

After the maid Bai Lu helped Shen Shu put on the Begonia brocade skirt, she couldn't help but praise her.

"Miss, you are so beautiful. This set will be the most suitable for your crowning."

Shen Shu looked at herself in the mirror, her lips curled up slightly: "I wonder how the coming-of-age gift my sister prepared for me is going. I'm looking forward to it."

"My brother, the Crown Prince, will also be here today. Mother has also invited many noble ladies and wives from Yanjing City. I think my sister will definitely be remembered by everyone in Yanjing City."

Bai Lu inserted a pearl hairpin into Shen Shu's bun and said with a smile, "Miss, the prince and old lady of the Yongchang Marquis's Mansion will also be here. Maybe we can discuss the marriage today."

Bai Lu's voice fell, without her noticing that Shen Shu's fists were slightly clenched under her sleeves.

She clearly wanted to be the Crown Princess, so how could she marry Zhang Huaian?

Although she and her mother had worked hard to get this marriage.

But how can the mistress of a marquis's mansion be more noble than the Crown Princess?

If her mother hadn't insisted on her marrying Zhang Huaian, she wouldn't have...

Thinking of this, Shen Shu suddenly felt unhappy.

She said, "This engagement originally belonged to my elder sister. It would be great if I could return it to her today."

The maid Bai Lu said, "Miss, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Bai Lu glanced outside the door, stood up and closed the door, then walked back to Shen Shu.

"Your Highness, although I have someone deliver letters to the dog hole in the north courtyard every day, the show must go on today."

"Otherwise, if others find out about your relationship with the prince, I'm afraid the young lady will be punished by the master."

"What's more, if the Queen knew about this, she would probably..."
