"Why does Daddy say that?" Yun Mian felt confused.

Looking at his daughter in front of him, Yun Shengzhi had a complicated expression.

Because he knew Yun Mian was not his biological daughter, his reaction was naturally a little cold. "You don't need to ask about those things. Just know that you came to the teahouse today. Focus your other thoughts on serving the eldest prince.

Feeling the subtle change in Yun Shengzhi's attitude towards him, Yun Mian felt a little warned, but did not dare to ask too much.

After returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Yun Shengzhi directly asked someone to summon Miao Fengxian.

Miao Fengxian was originally immersed in the excitement of becoming the mistress of the house after Su Fan's death. When she heard Yun Shengzhi's call, she went to the main hall in confusion.

All the servants in the main hall were evacuated, leaving only Yun Sheng.

Seeing Yun Shengzhi's serious expression, Miao Fengxian immediately sent all her personal maids away and adopted a flattering, tentative tone: "Didn't the master leave the house today to have tea with the other adults? How come he's back so soon?"

"Mian'er is not Benxiang's biological daughter at all. Do you know this?"

Who knew that Yun Shengzhi's words would shock Miao Fengxian.

Miao Fengxian was terrified, but on the surface, she was shocked. "This... Master, how is this possible? Mian'er's age, the birthmark on her body, and her background all indicate that she was abducted in the same year. I have carefully compared them one by one, and all the signs are consistent with her being the lost daughter of the Madam. How can you say that she is not?"

There is no evidence to prove this kind of thing, and the sudden suspicion can only be... unless the master has found the real Yunmian.

Miao Fengxian was shocked, but she could only pretend to be confused and clueless.

"Hmph, what can a birthmark prove? How do you know there won't be a second or third woman with a phoenix birthmark in this world? Besides, the phoenix birthmark on Mian'er's body when she was a child was a mark of favor from the divine phoenix in heaven. It can't be replaced by anyone with a similar birthmark..." Yun Shengzhi said with a cold face.

The more Miao Fengxian listened, the more she felt she might be right: "Could it be that the master has found a woman with the same birthmark as Mian'er?"

"Of course, and I have confirmed that she is the real Fulian Fengnu, and also my real daughter." Yun Shengzhi felt extremely angry. If Miao Fengxian had not found the wrong person, he would not be in the dilemma he is in now.

Yun Shengzhi also knew the possibility of making a mistake based on a phoenix birthmark. Even Miao Fengxian did not expect that there would be a mistake, so Miao Fengxian could not be blamed entirely for this matter.

But there was still a fire in my heart that I wanted to vent.

Miao Fengxian didn't expect that the real Yun Mian was not dead, and was found by Yun Shengzhi.

So he cautiously reassured, "Master, you must not have been deceived by some liar out there... The wedding is imminent, why did this person show up at this time instead of earlier?"

"Are you questioning what I saw with my own eyes? The auspicious sign of the phoenix was witnessed by the entire capital. Tell me, how did you fake it?" Yun Shengzhi looked at her with disappointment.

Phoenix auspiciousness?

Miao Fengxian didn't understand, but seeing Yun Shengzhi's anger, she was so frightened that she immediately knelt down, and said with a look of panic and trepidation: "This is all my fault. Now I will immediately kick this fake out of the house, and we should quickly bring back the real Sixth Young Lady of the Xiangfu!"

It was a complete failure.

She had thought that the little bitch was dead, but she didn't expect that she was still alive and came back to the capital.

But it doesn't matter. Her mother can torture herself to death, so why would she be afraid of a little bitch who grew up wild outside?

Unexpectedly, Yun Shengzhi said with a headache, "If only it were that easy. Now that the Second Prince has confirmed his marriage to Mian'er, it means they are very likely in love. Moreover, the wedding is known to the whole country, and any mistakes will make the entire Prime Minister's Mansion a laughing stock. Fengnv only has one chance to arrange a marriage, and now it's our Mansion's responsibility to deal with family affairs. If the Emperor takes this opportunity to revoke the Prime Minister's authority, we will have no choice but to swallow our anger."

"Then... Master means... that the fake play becomes real?" Miao Fengxian's eyes lit up. It seemed that there was still hope.

Yun Shengzhi sighed, "Mian'er still doesn't realize her true identity and already considers us her real family. We can still use her to our advantage. Fulian's identity as a phoenix girl has already been used to its full potential. As for the true Mian'er, we've decided to let her return to the palace as an illegitimate daughter. And now the eldest prince seems quite interested in her. Let's quickly send her to the eldest prince's palace. This will achieve the best of both worlds without alerting anyone."

"The eldest prince?" Miao Fengxian was surprised: "How could she be related to the eldest prince?"

It seems that it is not convenient for me to do it myself.

But then he thought that she would have to go back home anyway, and there would be other ways to deal with it.

"This is a long story, so I'll just talk to you. You mustn't let any news leak out. When the time comes... don't make a fuss about the real Mian'er returning home and her identity as an illegitimate daughter to arouse her suspicion. She currently doesn't know that she is the legitimate daughter and has been replaced..." Yun Shengzhi looked at Miao Fengxian and warned in a cold voice.

Miao Fengxian nodded quickly: "I understand."

He felt relieved in his heart. It seemed that even if the counterfeit he found was discovered by the master, for the benefit of the prime minister's mansion, the master would have no choice but to let the real owner compromise.

So, what if that little bitch comes back home?

Returning home as an illegitimate daughter is worse than being born out of wedlock.

…

The news of the Phoenix appearing in the capital spread throughout the streets and alleys in an instant.

Mu Linyuan, who was standing outside the window in the courtyard, did not miss the scene of the divine phoenix disappearing just now.

Qi Yang came back after asking around. He entered the study and looked at Mu Linyuan respectfully and said, "Your Highness, I went to the teahouse to check. It's said that this divine phoenix was created by the Sixth Young Lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion."

The shopkeeper was unwilling to say anything at first, but only after he revealed his identity did he dare to tell the truth cautiously.

"It turns out that the name Fulian Fengnu is not just a false reputation as rumored." Mu Linyuan was also surprised.

Qi Yang also looked up at Mu Linyuan in surprise and said, "Your Highness, everyone is saying that whoever wins the Phoenix Girl will rule the world. Could it be... that it is God's will that you and the Phoenix Girl marry? Now that auspicious signs have appeared before the wedding, what is this hinting at?"

"I am more curious about how Mu Lansheng would feel if he knew that I am already one step ahead of him." Mu Linyuan sneered.

Although, on the battlefield, they all lost because of love.

Now that Yun Miao is dead, they can no longer fight for her.

But in terms of power, he is already far ahead of Mulansheng.
