Even if the queen gives them a lot of property when they leave, the money will always be spent. Besides, Helian Yun is just a prince, who can't carry anything. What can he do after leaving the capital?
Moreover, their identities are sensitive. If they really want to leave, they will definitely hide their identities and keep a low profile. They may not even be able to live a life of luxury outside.
She had lived the life of a rich lady in the Zuo Mansion for more than ten years. Was she going to live the life of a pariah for the rest of her life?
She loved Helian Yun very much and could do many things for him, but to let her live that kind of life, she...
The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became, so Zuo Xinya simply sat up.
Finally, she got up, dressed, and left her room.
The light in Lord Zuo's study was still on, and Mrs. Zuo came out from inside. She must have gone in to deliver something.
Zuo Xinya lowered her eyes and hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to go forward.
Mrs. Zuo was very surprised when she saw her.
"Ya'er? It's so late, why aren't you asleep yet?"
As she spoke, she stepped forward and brushed the strands of hair off Zuo Xinya's cheek, saying softly, "You are our little darling, and your parents' sweetheart. You can't get tired. Go to sleep quickly, or your face won't look good."
Hearing Madam Zuo's concern for her, Zuo Xinya finally couldn't bear it anymore and grabbed her hand and said, "Mother! Today, the Queen called me to the palace!"
"What?!"
Zuo Xinya was summoned into the palace secretly, so Lord Zuo and Madam Zuo didn't know about it.
In addition, she went out frequently these days, so they didn't mind even if she came back a little late.
But unexpectedly, she was summoned into the palace by the queen.
Madam Zuo grabbed Zuo Xinya's hand and asked anxiously, "Ya'er, why did the Queen suddenly summon you to the palace?"
Zuo Xinya was about to speak when Madam Zuo suddenly reached out to stop her.
She looked around warily and whispered, "This is not the place to talk. Come with me."
Having said that, he took her back to his room.
After entering the room, Madam Zuo had someone guard the door before asking, "Ya'er, what's going on? Tell me the truth."
Zuo Xinya bit her lip and finally told everything.
Upon hearing this, Madam Zuo's face turned very ugly, and no one knew what she was thinking.
After a long while, she finally said to Zuo Xinya, "Ya'er, listen to your mother. You must not go with the Fifth Prince! Otherwise, you will definitely have no way to survive!"
Zuo Xinya was stunned. After all, Madam Zuo was her biological mother, so she still believed what she said.
Madam Zuo said, "If the Emperor and Empress truly want to grant your wish, then just let the Fifth Prince marry you. It's not a big deal, so why make it so complicated? I'm afraid they've already suspected your father. They're doing this just to wait for you to leave the capital so they can send someone to kill you, or even capture you alive to threaten your father!"
Zuo Xinya was frightened by Madam Zuo and turned pale. She asked in confusion, "But... why would the emperor and the others do this? The Fifth Prince is their son!"
Madam Zuo said, "Ya'er! How can you be so naive?! Does the Emperor still need a son?! Even though the Fifth Prince is a prince, he's just the child of a palace maid. Even if he's given a title in the future, it'll be to some remote place. He won't amount to anything! They suspect your father, so they'll naturally suspect the Fifth Prince is in cahoots with us. The Emperor doesn't have any evidence now, so he doesn't dare to touch our Zuo family. But the Fifth Prince is different. They can kill him if they want!"
After a pause, she sighed again.
"I've always disapproved of you being with the Fifth Prince. Later, you were granted marriage to the Third Prince, and I stopped interfering in this matter. But you really made a big mistake this time!"
