Chapter Four: The Substitute Princess (Part Two)



Lingzhi mistakenly believed that her condition was a sequela caused by falling into the water earlier, and did not suspect anything. Out of kindness, she told Fengjin everything that had happened to her.

"Since Miss doesn't remember, then I'll tell you now; a few days ago, in order to stabilize the court, His Majesty discussed with his ministers the possibility of issuing an edict to confer upon you, Miss, the title of Imperial Concubine, and at the same time betrothing Miss Two to Prince Jing. However, Miss Two has always been proud and arrogant, and has been at odds with Miss since childhood. In order to enter the palace as a concubine, she actually tried to drown you in the lotus pond..."

Hearing this, Yu Qianqian finally understood the whole story. It turned out that Feng Jin, whom Feng Yao mentioned, was the only legitimate eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's mansion, and Feng Yao was her half-sister.

What's even more unbelievable is that she not only looks exactly like the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's family, but they also share similar experiences.

She sat down in front of the bronze mirror, staring thoughtfully at her own face. Suddenly, another thought came to her mind. Different identities, different names, yet they shared the same face. She never imagined such a coincidence could exist in the world. Since fate had allowed her to encounter another identity when she was at her wit's end, then perhaps... she might as well use the name Feng Jin to continue living and use the identity of the Prime Minister's daughter to avenge the massacre of her family. This might not be a bad way out.

"From this moment on, I am Feng Jin."

Finally, the procession, accompanied by several sedan chairs, stopped in front of the Prime Minister's residence in a very extravagant manner.

"As expected of the current prime minister! The palace staff come to visit every few days as if it were a daily routine. It's truly enviable!"

"Yes, yes, it seems that Feng Qingyun has another good thing coming his way!"

Amidst a cacophony of murmurs that spread through the crowd, an eunuch in blue official robes, supported by a soldier, slowly emerged from the sedan chair.

"See! I guessed right, this is indeed Eunuch Wang who serves the Emperor!"

Amidst the kneeling and welcoming of everyone in the entire Prime Minister's residence, Eunuch Wang remained unfazed, strode into the center of the courtyard, and then pulled out an imperial edict from his sleeve, calling out in a high-pitched voice: "Feng Qingyun's eldest daughter—Feng Jin, come to receive the imperial edict!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Qianqian hurriedly left the room, knelt down, and patiently waited for Eunuch Wang to continue reading the imperial edict.

"By the grace of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: The eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's family, Feng Jin, is virtuous and dignified. Effective immediately, she is betrothed to Prince Jing and bestowed the title of Princess Jing. This is the imperial decree!"
