The Legitimate Daughter Returns: The Real Daughter is Reborn

Chapter 15 The eldest lady stole the bracelet

After hearing what King Jin said, cold sweat broke out on Su Hou's forehead. He was surprised and happy in his heart. He glanced at Su Leyun meaningfully and tentatively spoke.

"How dare you trouble Your Highness with the household affairs? It's my daughter who is ignorant. I apologize to you on her behalf."

Prince Jin seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and looked at Su Leyun with slightly raised eyes.

Su Leyun's eyes averted, and he felt uneasy in his heart. King Jin came here this time, and there was something in his words. What was his intention?

In her previous life, she only knew that King Jin was cold-hearted and cold-faced, but she didn't know that he could act so wantonly.

He blatantly meddles in the affairs of his ministers and is not afraid of others saying that he forms cliques and uses his power to oppress others.

Before she could finish thinking, King Jin spoke again, and his words were shocking.

"This is not only Su Hou's family matter, but also a matter of concern to this king..."

Before he finished speaking, his final voice rose slightly, which was thought-provoking.

King Jin stopped ordering and picked up the tea cup again. Everyone understood the meaning of his words and had their own thoughts. For a while, the room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Su Leyun tightened her grip on the jade pendant in her hand and frowned. She didn't expect that a whim in the inn would lead to a big trouble.

The King of Jin wanted to use her to bring the Sun Mansion and the Su Mansion under his banner, giving him a bargaining chip on the road to seizing the throne.

The road to inheriting the throne has always been dangerous, and she didn't want to get involved in this muddy water.

But now that King Jin was speaking so firmly, she was unable to refute it.

Sun Jiarou had a smile in her eyes. The more she looked at King Jin, the more satisfied she became. He had a noble status, a dignified character and outstanding appearance.

She held Su Leyun's hand and patted it, her voice deliberately lowered, unable to conceal her joy.

"My daughter really has good eyesight."

Su Leyun smiled helplessly, his eyes moved slightly, and he glared at King Jin without any trace.

Prince Jin took in her small movements and smiled indulgently, feeling even more interested. Among the noble girls in the capital, who wouldn’t have tried so hard to marry him into Prince Jin’s palace?

She was quite good, with a frown on her face, as if this king was not worthy of her.

Su Wan'er saw the interaction between the two in her eyes, and the fingers in her sleeves pinched into her palms.

At the palace banquets on weekdays, there are so many high-ranking ladies, fat and thin, who can't win the eyes of King Jin even though they are so attentive. How can a country girl win the eyes of King Jin!

Even if she had to choose Su Hou Mansion for marriage, she should be Su Wan'er. How could it be her Su Leyun's turn!

On the other side, Su Hou thought for a long time, suddenly laughed, stood up and cupped his hands towards King Jin.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I know what to do. Tomorrow, I will join hands with the elders of the clan to come up with a family tree and add Yun'er's name."

Now the King of Jin is the most likely prince to inherit the throne. If they can get married, the Su family will rise steadily from now on.

A mere marquis is nothing. If this happens, he will be the head of the country from now on!

If you want to become the King of Jin now, the first step is to determine Su Leyun's title as the legitimate daughter. Only the legitimate daughter of the Hou Mansion can be worthy of the Heavenly Family.

Sun Jiarou stroked Su Leyun's shoulder, her eyes a little moist, her daughter could finally enter the family tree and regain her status as a legitimate daughter.

Su Leyun shook her hand back, feeling cold in his heart.

Even if she is a biological daughter, she cannot match the power and wealth.

Seeing the sadness in Su Leyun's eyes, King Jin frowned slightly, put down the tea cup, and exchanged a tacit look with Su Hou.

"That's very good."

Then he turned to the old lady and said curiously: "When I first entered the house, I heard that something seemed to have been lost in your mansion, and I was about to search it. Just in time, I brought some people with me to help."

The old lady stood up in a hurry and said hurriedly that she did not dare to trouble the prince.

King Jin only thought she was being polite and ignored her, and continued to order his subordinates.

"Yun'er's yard has been searched. You can follow the people from the Su family and look elsewhere."

As soon as the words fell, several palace servants and the royal guards immediately searched everywhere.

Su Hou had a look on his face and looked at the old lady reproachfully.

It was just a jade bracelet, but it actually made a joke about searching the family, and even made Prince Jin look at it. Searching it here and there, where is the face of Suhou Mansion!

Su Hou's face turned red and white, and when he was about to speak, King Jin blocked him back.

"Something has been lost in the Su Mansion, so it is appropriate for me to do something. Don't worry, ladies and gentlemen, the chambermaids will be responsible for visiting the house, so the rules will not be broken."

After saying that, King Jin took some time to grab a handful of pine nuts on the table and peeled them carefully.

Seeing that she was not paying attention, Su Leyun took the opportunity to sneak behind the screen, called Cui Liu, and whispered a few words. He saw Cui Liu leaving the yard before returning to his seat.

As soon as she sat down, she saw Jin Dynasty waving to her, motioning for her to come over.

Su Leyun frowned and walked to King Jin reluctantly.

"I wonder what His Highness's orders are."

Prince Jin just looked at her and smiled without saying a word. He didn't speak slowly until he saw someone who was about to explode.

"Hands out."

Su Leyun was puzzled, but he did as he was told, with his fair palms facing up and his long fingers.

King Jin put all the peeled pine nuts in Su Leyun's hand.

"I heard from Su Ye that you like to eat this."

The warm fingertips touched the palm of his hand, and a red cloud appeared on Su Leyun's face. He stopped his hand, then thanked him.

"Thank you for the reward, Your Highness."

Prince Jin raised his eyebrows. She wanted to have a relationship with him, but he refused to let her do so.

"That day you asked me for a jade pendant, but you were not so shy. Go back and sit down, eat and wait."

Su Leyun held a breath in his chest, turned back to Sun Jiarou, and closed his eyes slightly.

It's over, now even the water in the moat can't clean the relationship between her and Prince Jin.

In just one cup of tea, the waiter in blue held up a white jade bracelet and handed it to King Jin.

"My lord, do you think this is what you are looking for?"

King Jin sneered: "You stupid thing, why don't you present it to the old lady?"

The chamberlain obeyed and handed the jade bracelet to the old lady. The old lady finally had a smile on her face. She took the jade bracelet and asked Aunt Zhao to put it on her, then stood up and thanked her.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. This is exactly the one I lost."

King Jin nodded, called the servant to him again, and asked in a cold voice: "Where did you find it? Have you caught the thief?"

The chamberlain hesitated and lowered his head lower and lower.

"What? Are you mute?"

King Jin asked with a cold eyebrow, playing with the tea cup on the table in his hand, as if he could see the flowers from it.

The chamberlain said cautiously: "It's hard for me to reply to this servant, so I'd better let Su Mansion's housekeeper do the talking."

The old lady was stunned, and her heart that had just been relieved came back to her throat. The servant could not explain clearly, firstly to save face for the Hou Mansion, and secondly to prevent others from believing her.

In this case, it's a family scandal! ?

King Jin waved his hand to signal the servant to go down, and his cold and slightly oppressive eyes fell on the butler.

The housekeeper stepped forward bravely and said hesitantly: "This bracelet, this bracelet was found under the eldest lady's pillow."

"What! You're talking nonsense!"

Su Waner stood up, forced herself to remain calm, and looked at the old lady as if seeking shelter.

The old lady was still in shock and had not come back to her senses.
