"I've met the eldest princess."

Fang Nanzhi knelt down and saluted.

"Get up."

Princess Mingzhu stared at her face and couldn't help feeling a little confused.

This child looks more and more like a member of the Chen family.

"sit."

Fang Nanzhi readily followed suit and sat down.

She raised her hand, and Anmei brought the box over. Fang Nanzhi opened it and pushed it in front of the Grand Princess.

"Grand Princess, I invited you today because I wanted to ask about the reason for this gift."

Fang Nanzhi went straight to the point, his eyes were firm, and his tone was actually a bit resolute.

The old nanny frowned, thinking that the little girl was too presumptuous. Just as she was about to teach her a lesson, the master spoke.

"Didn't I tell you that last time?"

Princess Mingzhu picked up the teapot, poured tea, and placed it next to the little girl herself.

This tolerance and closeness made Fang Nanzhi feel even more uncomfortable.

Without touching the teacup, she simply asked, "I want to know the truth. Has the Grand Princess already figured out my identity?"

There was a hint of doubt in the little girl's eyes.

Princess Mingzhu looked at her serious little face, but she was not angry. She just felt that she looked more and more like that person.

She stretched out her slender hand, wanting to touch the little girl's hair, but in the end, she retracted it.

"Yes, according to blood relationship, you should call me aunt."

Princess Mingzhu's eyes were cold.

Yesterday, when she heard that Yiyang was causing trouble on the street and targeting the young lady from the Fang family, she realized something was wrong.

Under her harsh questioning, Yiyang told her everything, including knowing Fang Nanzhi's identity, her dissatisfaction, and deliberately telling the third princess to kill someone with a borrowed knife.

Princess Mingzhu was furious and beat her daughter for the first time.

That night, she ordered that the things that had been prepared secretly be brought to light ahead of time.

This led to the sudden attack in the morning court.

Even though Fang Nanzhi was mentally prepared, he was still feeling emotional.

She remembered that Chen Xiang's case seemed to have been reported personally by his first wife, Princess Mingzhu.

From this perspective, they should be enemies?

But if Prime Minister Chen...uncle really had ill intentions and did something wrong, she couldn't blame Princess Mingzhu.

Fang Nanzhi suppressed her emotions and said, "Princess Mingzhu, is my uncle really guilty of treason?"

The two looked into each other's eyes, one clear and transparent, the other cold and deep.

Finally, Princess Mingzhu retracted her gaze and said, "That's the matter of the previous generation. You're still young, don't worry about it."

"You have to remember, your last name is Fang, not Chen."

There was something in her words.

Fang Nanzhi heard it, but didn't want to do it.

"Grand Princess, you should know that some things are innate and cannot be avoided. If I don't dare to face them, then am I still myself?"

Princess Mingzhu said nothing and just looked at the hot tea in her hand.

"This is the best Snow Mountain Dragon Bud Tea. It has a refreshing fragrance when brewed. It was your uncle's favorite."

“But no matter how good the tea is, once it gets cold, it loses its flavor.”

This was a hint to her that she had a promising future, but if she rashly got involved in Chen Xiang's affairs, her life might be in danger.

"I am Chen Zixi's daughter."

Fang Nanzhi just said.

Whether Chen was truly guilty or was being wronged, she was willing to take responsibility.

Princess Mingzhu sighed, wondering why all the Chen family members were like this, each one more stubborn than the other.

"There is solid evidence that Chen Zijun was beheaded in public." Princess Mingzhu said.

Fang Nanzhi's heart sank. He nodded slowly and stood up to leave.

"You actually look more like your uncle than your mother."

Princess Mingzhu suddenly spoke.

Fang Nanzhi paused.

"Nanzhi, there are some things that adults will do on their own. You should not get involved. You should be prudent and protect yourself."

The Grand Princess continued.

Fang Nanzhi was a little confused and wanted to ask something, but the Grand Princess refused to say anything.

Eventually, she left.

The exquisite headgear was also left behind.

Fang Nanzhi could not accept this complicated gift, or rather, she could not accept it on behalf of her mother and uncle.

Princess Mingzhu looked at the little girl with an expressionless face, but a drop of tears unconsciously flowed across the corner of her eyes.

The old lady was startled: "Princess."

"It doesn't matter."

Princess Mingzhu said softly.

Fang Nanzhi didn't get on the carriage, but walked home. She needed to think.

The Grand Princess said that there was irrefutable evidence of the Chen family's crimes, but she also asked her not to get involved and to protect herself.

Not participating in what?

Fang Nanzhi thought about it and decided that she needed to see for herself what the case of Chen was like.

With a goal in mind, she felt much more relieved. At the same time, she did not forget to take Anmei to the flower market, as the flowers and plants in the system mall were sold out again.

I have to investigate my mother's affairs and save the prince.

The little girl's steps became more determined as she walked.

When she returned home, her second uncle and father had both returned from the government office.

The second uncle confirmed that Yuhuan was the token of the Chen family's legitimate child.

Combined with the information Fang Nanzhi got from the Grand Princess, it was confirmed that her mother was Chen Zixi.

"I looked through the Book of the Law today, and according to the law, treason will implicate three clans."

Qin Yan suddenly spoke.

Everyone was shocked.

"But in the Chen case, no other tribes were implicated at the time. Only the tribe itself was exiled."

He continued.

"And the law stipulates that after a woman marries, she no longer belongs to her original clan, and her children also belong to the man's clan."

Therefore, Fang Nanzhi is not considered a member of the Chen clan, and according to the law, she does not need to be arrested and exiled.

The family breathed a sigh of relief.

"Now, it depends on whether the emperor still hates the Chen family so much. If so, I'm afraid that all the branches will be implicated."

Qin Yan is very objective.

The emperor's favor can make people do whatever they want, but the emperor's disgust can make people live a life worse than death.

"Then I'm afraid that His Majesty has no good feelings towards Chen."

Fang Yin took over.

He told the story of what happened in the court. If Lord Park had not mentioned Mr. Zhen, the emperor would probably not even look at the so-called "evidence."

By making up a pretext that Mr. Park was spreading rumors to confuse the public, they could drag him out, and the "evidence" would disappear without anyone noticing.

The whole family was worried again.

Fang Nanzhi's eyes lit up: "Why is it that after so many years, someone is suddenly crying out for justice?"

This is exactly what makes Fang Yin confused and uncertain.

He didn't even know whether those who wanted to overturn the verdict really wanted to clear Chen's name or take the opportunity to throw more dirty water on him and implicate more people.

Fang Tongze could think of the Grand Princess.

"Could it be Princess Mingzhu who did it?"

"Then what does she want? She was the one who exposed Chen back then." Qian Fengping felt that the possibility was not high.

The others didn't speak either.

Yes, if the case of Princess Mingzhu who killed her own relatives for the sake of justice is overturned, the reputation of the Princess will definitely be damaged.

She was branded as a vicious and cruel woman.

"No matter what, we have to confess this to the emperor." Fang Yin said.

Once a secret is known to another person, it is no longer a secret.

Besides, how many people know about it now? It's better for him to confess his crime sooner rather than for the emperor to find out.
