"Lifelong happiness? You're already in this state, are you sure you can still have lifelong happiness?"
"I……"
Ling Fei looked around and after making sure it was safe, she said, "Who would really like you or love you if you're like this? Only if you marry Dongfang Ming will he treat you well for the Ling family's sake.
Actually, Dongfang Ming wasn't bad either; at least he was the Crown Prince of Dongxiang. As long as he managed things properly, ascending to the throne was inevitable. Your mother was once the Crown Princess, but so what? Once the Crown Prince ascended the throne, wouldn't he have to give up the position of Empress to those charlatans of the Divine Cult?
So even if you marry Dongfang Ming and become the Crown Princess now, when he ascends the throne, you will have to give up the position of Queen, right? "
Seeing Qianye Manqiao's silence, Concubine Ling continued to comfort her, "Mother doesn't want to force you, because a forced melon is not sweet. Besides, the Ling family also needs you to do many things in the Prince's Mansion. If you are not willing, your grandfather would rather not have this marriage, but he must not offend the Prince of Dongfang.
However, my mother feels that it is no longer realistic for you to choose a suitable husband through the Chamber of Commerce. Instead of doing this, you should do something beneficial for the future.
My mother and that bitch Xia Muwan have been competing for favor all their lives. Now I realize that in this deep palace, it doesn’t matter whether we can get the favor of our husband or not. What matters is that we must hold the power in our own hands.
Your brother has been demoted to Lizhou. If you can cooperate with Dongfang Ming and seize control of Nanyue while Murong Qingyu is still unprepared, catch him off guard, and conquer Nanyue... If your brother becomes the emperor of Nanyue, Dongfang Ming will have a strong backing. Although you have been disfigured, who would dare to look down on you then?
After hearing what Concubine Ling said, Qianye Manqiao fell silent.
Although her pride made her feel that marrying the crown prince of a worst country like Dongxiang Kingdom as a concubine was the greatest insult to her, she was not stupid. After calming down and analyzing the problems she faced, it seemed that marrying Dongfang Ming was her best choice.
Now Qianye Mixue, a princess with no status, is going to marry into the Northern Wei. How can she have the face to stay in Nanyue and wait to finally marry the son of a minister?
If she married Dongfang Ming, as long as everything was done properly, as her mother had said, at least her future life would not be sad, and she would not have to stay in Nanyue and watch those people mock and ridicule her.
As long as Qian Yeyao became emperor, she would be able to gain a firm foothold in Dongxiang. Taking a step back, the battle for the throne between Qian Yeyao, Qian Yeming, and Qian Yechen was becoming increasingly intense. In the end, only one would win, and the other two would die.
If the other two ended up becoming emperors, then there would be no good outcome for her following the Ling family. Rather than that, it would be better to stay away. At least Qian Yeming and Qian Yeyao didn't have the strength to attack Prince Dongxiang's mansion.
"What does your mother want me to do?"
Looking at Qian Ye Manqiao who had figured it out, Concubine Ling raised a determined smile at the corner of her lips.
What husband? What throne? She doesn't care about any of them! Now, what she wants is her son to be the emperor! Only when she becomes the empress dowager can she truly sleep peacefully!
