"So that's how it is. She's quite a nice girl. General Duan's daughter being betrothed to my third brother is a perfect match. I just hope he can cherish her well."
The Queen also sighed and said, "Who says it's not true? It's a pity that his heart is solely on Zuo Xinya. It's really..."
Helian Wushuang added, "The girl from the Zuo family is a good girl, but it's a pity that she has such a father. She is also the only legitimate daughter, and my fifth brother loves her very much. If they really let her get married, I'm afraid my fifth brother will become a pawn in their hands. If I betroth her to my third brother, he can take good care of her and put some pressure on Master Zuo."
The Queen nodded, "Indeed."
Lord Zuo is the Prime Minister's confidant, and the Prime Minister is ambitious and has been secretly making things difficult for the royal family for many years. His intentions are obvious to everyone, so Helian Yun must not become his son-in-law.
Otherwise, given his love for Zuo Xinya, he would certainly collude with Lord Zuo and be willing to become a pawn in the hands of Lord Zuo and the Prime Minister.
The emperor has now sent people to secretly collect evidence of the Prime Minister's collusion with Lord Zuo. As long as he finds the right opportunity, he will naturally wipe them out.
If Helian Yun was allowed to be with Zuo Xinya, he would definitely be implicated. As a parent, he naturally couldn't bear to see his child like this, so he forced him to marry Duan Qingxi.
As for Helian Cheng, he is a heartless man and is close to Helian Sheng. He can definitely help them get information about Lord Zuo from Zuo Xinya.
It's just that they can't explain this kind of thing to Helian Yun. Even if they do, he probably won't understand.
Outside the palace.
Duan Qingxi's carriage slowly drove towards the general's mansion, but suddenly stopped.
Duan Qingxi was puzzled and was about to ask Qiao Yun to go out and take a look when he heard a servant's voice outside, "Is there something important that the Fifth Prince wants to talk about?"
Helian Yun's voice came immediately, "Get out of the way!"
"Fifth Prince, you can't do that. My lady... Hey! Fifth Prince!"
The servants seemed to want to stop him, but they couldn't. Soon Helian Yun rudely lifted the curtain and walked in.
After taking a look at Qiao Yun, he said coldly, "Get out!"
Qiao Yun trembled as she protected Duan Qingxi. Although she was afraid, she was unwilling to leave.
Seeing that Helian Yun had already developed murderous intentions, Duan Qingxi said to her, "Alright, Qiao Yun, go out. Let me have a good talk with your future son-in-law."
Qiao Yun was a little worried, but after seeing Duan Qingxi's soothing eyes, she had to go out.
Helian Yun's face became more and more ugly. It seemed that he was angry because of her words "future son-in-law".
Haha, it seems that he doesn’t like himself very much!
Duan Qingxi suddenly felt that being assigned to marry Helian Yun was not a bad thing. This body was not hers anyway, and she would have to leave here sooner or later. Even if she married Helian Yun, she would not be with him forever.
But... I can take this opportunity to disgust him!
It makes me excited just thinking about it. But let me ask myself... is there anything more disgusting in this world than being forced to be with a woman you don't like?
Therefore, Duan Qingxi showed a very frivolous smile on her face, "Oh, isn't this my future husband? Come on, come on, sit down! I just left the palace, and my husband can't wait to catch up with me. Is he reluctant to leave me?"
"Shut up!"
Helian Yun's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. If he hadn't taken into consideration that she was Duan Hong's daughter and Duan Sijin's sister, he would have killed her with a single blow!
"I'm telling you, I will never marry you. You'd better give up on this idea!"
Duan Qingxi heard this, his face expressionless, as he leaned back lazily, "Oh? Fifth Prince, are you going to disobey the emperor's order? If you have the guts, go and tell the emperor and the empress~"
