"No matter how good the Fifth Prince is, he's just a prince without real power. Do you really think your love can last you a lifetime? You'll definitely regret it if you follow him to a remote place!"
"Look at your father and me. Back then, I was forced to marry your father. Your father later married many women, but now, the entire Zuo Mansion is under the control of your mother and me. Have I ever suffered any injustice in my life? Has your father ever treated me unfairly? Who in the capital doesn't envy me? So, don't be so naive. No matter how much the Fifth Prince loves you, if you don't have some power in your hands, you will be looked down upon!"
Mrs. Zuo’s words enlightened Zuo Xinya.
She had been struggling with this matter for a long time, and now that she thought about it carefully, she felt that her mother was right.
She was greedy for Helian Yun's favor towards her. For her sake, there was no other woman around him over the years.
But who can say for sure that he won’t fall in love with another woman in the future?
He was just a prince born to a palace maid. Even if he became a prince now, he would be the most useless prince.
He looks rich and powerful, but in fact he can never compare to Helian Cheng!
So what if Helian Cheng doesn't love her?
When she becomes the Third Prince's Consort in the future, she will have the final say in the entire palace. No matter how many women Helian Cheng has, the Third Prince's Palace will belong to her son in the future!
When Mrs. Zuo saw Zuo Xinya's expression, she knew that she had come to terms with it.
After all, she is her own daughter. How could Mrs. Zuo not understand what kind of person Zuo Xinya is?
If she really liked and cared about Helian Yun, she wouldn't have told me about this.
In fact, she already had an answer in her heart. The reason she came to her was just to hope that she, as her mother, could persuade her and find an excuse for her to betray Helian Yun.
After a while, Zuo Xinya looked at Madam Zuo and said, "But... I have already promised Helian Yun that I will leave with him on the day of the Dharma Assembly. The Emperor and the Empress have already started to take care of this matter. What should I do now?"
Madam Zuo held her hand, thought about it carefully, and suddenly a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.
She said, "Don't worry, I have my own way!"
After hearing what Mrs. Zuo said, Zuo Xinya felt relieved.
She lowered her eyes in thought. It wasn't her fault. She...she was just forced into it.
After all, if she really left, perhaps the Zuo Mansion would really be finished!
The mother and daughter did not notice that there was a man in black standing on the roof.
After the man in black heard their words clearly, he quickly left the place using his lightness skills.
The next morning, when Duan Qingxi woke up, Helian Sheng was gone.
As soon as she finished washing up, Xuan Yi and Xuan Er came in and told Duan Qingxi everything they heard last night.
Duan Qingxi was not surprised. She had long guessed that Zuo Xinya was not the kind of person who would give up everything for love.
But what she didn't expect was that this woman was so cruel that she actually wanted to...
Thinking of this, Duan Qingxi curled up the corners of his mouth slightly.
"I was just worried about not being able to find a suitable opportunity to plot against Helian Yun, but then Zuo Xinya bumped into me. It really seems like it was fate!"
Xuan Yi and Xuan Er didn't quite understand what Duan Qingxi meant, but they knew that she was planning to do something at the Dharma Assembly.
Xuan Yi asked, "Miss, do you need us to do anything then?"
Duan Qingxi said, "No, you don't have to do anything! I will do this myself!"
Hearing this, Xuan Yi and Xuan Er had nothing more to say and retreated silently.
Ninth Prince's Palace.
After hearing the report from the secret guard, Helian Sheng's face suddenly turned gloomy.
Seeing this, Su He on the side couldn't help but tremble.
