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

This is what Shen Mi will do next.

She placed the chess piece in her hand on the board, her face slightly cold.

The next day, the sky was slightly bright.

A hurried sound of footsteps came from outside the door.

"Miss, the master wants you to come over."

Shen Mi frowned slightly: "So early?"

"The master said that there is something important."

Shen Mi got out of bed, washed up, and followed the guards to the study in the Shen Mansion.

After Shen Mi arrived at the study, it was closed.

After a while, the voice of Pingyang Hou was heard from inside.

"Mi'er, come in."

The door creaked open, and Shen Mi saw her father sitting at the desk, frowning as he looked at some letters in his hands.

She walked closer and placed the medicinal food in her hand on the tea table next to her.

"Dad, I know you've been working hard these past few days, so I made you some nourishing medicinal food. Drink it while it's hot."

Marquis Pingyang looked up at her, forced a smile on his lips, and waved at her.

"Come here, Daddy will show you something."

Shen Mi was a little puzzled. She walked closer slowly and saw a letter with the handwriting in a flamboyant style.

She was very familiar with this handwriting; it was exactly the handwriting of her uncle Jiang Xuan.

Pingyang Hou handed the letter to Shen Mi: "Your uncle wrote to me, saying that he will be back in half a year. Please take some time to write back to your uncle."

"Your uncle is always thinking about you."

Shen Mi took the letter, saw the words on it, and thought of Jiang Xuan's tragic ending in his previous life. She couldn't help but feel inexplicably sad.

Jiang Xuan and his mother Jiang Jingwan were originally born into a famous merchant family in Jiangdong. Their ancestors were in the silk business and were considered wealthy in Jiangdong.

When my father was young, he went on a tour to the southeast of Jiangdong. He was chased by someone on the way, so my mother brought him back to the Jiang family to recuperate, and the two fell in love.

A year after my father left the Jiang family, he went to the Jiang family in person with a betrothal gift to propose marriage. Only then did my mother marry my father, Marquis Pingyang.

Later, the Jiang family's silk business in Jiangdong grew bigger and bigger, which made their peers jealous. They then used some dirty tricks on the Jiang family's business and even got the Jiang family into lawsuits.

My grandfather fell ill and passed away not long after. My grandmother followed him later.

At this point, only Jiang Xuan and Jiang Jingwan, a brother and sister, were left in the Jiang family's main branch.

The Jiang family is falling apart and family conflicts are becoming increasingly intensified.

Jiang Xuan left home when he was young. After returning to Jiangdong, he was even more at odds with his relatives and was often excluded. The Jiang family fell into decline from then on.

Under the guidance of his father and mother, Jiang Xuan joined the army and became the Jiang Xuan of today.

Speaking of which, Jiang Xuan's life was not very lucky.

"Mi'er, what are you thinking about?"

When Shen Mi heard the words of Marquis Pingyang, he came back to his senses.

She folded the letter and looked at Pingyang Hou with a smile on her face: "Dad, is there any news from the border? Did my uncle win the battle?"

Pingyang Hou smiled and said, "Yes."

"Your uncle won this time with 3,000 soldiers and horses. His Majesty was very pleased and gave him many rewards. If he comes back in half a year, he will be rewarded again."

"When your uncle went to the military camp, he was only fifteen years old. Now ten years have passed. I am very pleased that he has achieved what he has today."

Shen Mi raised the corners of her lips slightly and said with a smile: "Dad, if we can send my brothers to the military camp together at that time, it might not be a bad thing."

Pingyang Hou smiled and said, "This is the only way for these two children."

"Only your sister and you are more sensible."

Shen Mi pursed her lips and said, "Dad, my brothers will understand your painstaking efforts."

Pingyang Hou sighed, "Let's hope so. Daddy is old and blind, and he made a mistake in choosing someone."

"You can only go to your mother to atone for your sins in the future."

Shen Mi lowered her eyes, looked at Pingyang Hou, and sighed.

She didn't expect that her father would think this way.

She saw that Pingyang Hou looked unhappy, and thought of Lin's years of unsuccessful efforts to get pregnant.

He wanted to test whether Marquis Pingyang was in poor health.

She said slowly: "Dad, I see that you don't look well, why don't you let your daughter take your pulse?"

Pingyang Hou sighed, sat on the chair, and stretched out his hand, "Okay, you come and take my pulse."

Shen Mi's eyes darkened slightly, and he stretched out his hand to take the pulse of Marquis Pingyang.

Although Pingyang Hou's pulse was stable, there was an indescribable disorder in it.

She had diagnosed this kind of disorder in other patients before, as if they had been poisoned by the tama magpie branch.

Moreover, as far as we can see now, he was poisoned many years ago, and the remaining poison has been cleared, leaving some sequelae.

"Dad, have you ever been poisoned?"

Pingyang Hou nodded, "Many years ago, I was tricked in Jiangdong and was poisoned by the Ta Que Zhi, but the remaining poison has been cleared. Is there something wrong?"

Shen Mi pulled down the sleeves of Marquis Pingyang.

She finally understood why Lin couldn't have children.

This is the aftermath of stepping on the magpie branch.

Although her father was humane, he was unable to allow her to conceive a child.

Thinking of this, Shen Mi said: "Dad, you haven't cleared the poison yet, and there are some sequelae."

"If Mi'er told you, would Daddy believe it?"

Pingyang Hou frowned and looked at her, seeing that she was acting mysterious.

"Mi'er, just say what you want to say."

Shen Mi took a deep breath and spoke with a somewhat embarrassed look.

"Dad, you know that after being poisoned by the magpie branch, although... although it can..."

Shen Mi's face turned a little red, which made Pingyang Hou very anxious.

"Hurry up and speak quickly."

Shen Mi took a deep breath and finally mustered up the courage to speak.

"Although they can have sexual intercourse, it is extremely difficult... to conceive a child."

Pingyang Hou's expression changed slightly, and he looked at Shen Mi with some doubts.

He laughed and said, "How is that possible? I heard that this magpie branch is just a drug."

"Father, didn't you also give birth to Shu'er?"

Shen Mi pursed her lips tightly. She knew that if she continued to talk, her father might blame her for deliberately trying to sow discord between him and Shen Shu.

What's more, she didn't know when Pingyang Hou was poisoned, and she was not sure whether Shen Shu was her biological son.

Now, tell Daddy about the poison of the magpie branch, and he will check it out himself.

Even if Lin was pregnant in the side courtyard, he would still question it.

What's more, this kind of thing is a hidden disease of men and is related to men's dignity. Which man is willing to accept the fact that he cannot have heirs?

Thinking of this, Shen Mi stood up from his chair.

"Dad, Mi'er is just telling you about my experience. Maybe it's not what I think."

"Now that I have received my uncle's letter, Mi'er will go down first."

Pingyang Hou looked unhappy and sighed, "Go ahead."

Shen Mi returned to the private room in Lanyue Courtyard.

In the private room, she picked up the teacup in her hand and frowned when she thought of the connection between the newly crowned number one scholar Su Xun and the prince in her previous life.

In his previous life, Su Xun won the first place in the Spring Examination and was appointed to the Ministry of Revenue by Emperor Ren De.

Later, he secretly became the prince's adviser, giving him advice.

Su Xun is a man who is good at strategy and has talent and perseverance.

If I could seize the opportunity to become the crown prince in this life, I would be the first to conquer Su Xun and make him my own.

Thinking of this, Shen Mi put down the teacup and looked at Yun Lan.

"Someday, you and I will have to go to Bai Xiao Tang to get some information and release some news."

Yun Lan was a little confused: "Miss, what news are you asking for, and what news are you going to release?"

Shen Mi raised the corners of his lips slightly, and said calmly: "Ask about a person. This person is talented and resourceful, and should not be underestimated."

"As for the news that was spread, it is naturally about the Ministry of War."

"This matter concerns my sister's life and death."

"Pack these things up in the next few days and go to Bai Xiao Tang with me."

Yun Lan pursed her lips and looked at Shen Mi.

"Miss, Bai Xiao Tang charges 150 taels of silver for each request for information."

"Last time we asked for Li Niang and bribed some people, we don't have much money left."

Shen Mi frowned and remained silent for a while.

"Let's take out what we have left."

"Yes, ma'am."

Shen Mi knew that it would be difficult to bring down the prince without money.

She vaguely remembered that in the previous life's Qionghua Banquet, the winner was Shen Shu.

The silver reward bestowed by His Majesty at that time was enough to buy four or five shops, and the Qionghua Banquet could also be used as an opportunity to allow people to enter the Eastern Palace.

If she had put more effort into this Qionghua Banquet, she might still have a chance.

But it was still early before the Qionghua Banquet, and she couldn't wait that long. She had to find out Su Xun's background first.
