Helian Yun naturally didn't dare to go to the emperor and the empress to tell them. Firstly, he knew it was useless, and secondly, doing so would only implicate Zuo Xinya.
So after much thought, he decided that it would be most appropriate to come to Duan Qingxi.
As long as she doesn't agree, then the marriage between them will be cancelled.
It’s a pity that Duan Qingxi doesn’t want him to have his way.
"Duan Qingxi, listen to me. This prince will never fall in love with you, so you'd better be prepared to marry me! If you tell my father and mother that you don't want to marry me now, I will owe you a favor. Later..."
"Tsk tsk tsk, the Fifth Prince is quite calculating. But, do you think I'm still a fool? If I disobey your orders, I'll be the first to take the blame. And then I'll help you and Miss Zuo get together?"
As she spoke, she sneered, "Fifth Prince, please don't treat everyone like a fool."
Helian Yun could naturally hear the sarcasm in her tone. He clenched his hands into fists, but did not lose his temper. He gritted his teeth and said, "You are the daughter of the general's mansion. Even if you disobey the emperor's order, my father will not dare to do anything to you!"
"That sounds nice, but you're still the Emperor's son. If you disobey his orders, will he be even more cruel to you than he was to us, the General's Mansion?!"
"Duan Qingxi, don't go too far!"
"Isn't it Your Highness who's being overly harsh? A grown man isn't willing to take responsibility, yet you let a girl like me take the blame. You're so audacious! Aren't you afraid of getting the word out and making people laugh?"
Helian Yun didn't expect Duan Qingxi to be so difficult to deal with. Knowing that force wouldn't work, he had no choice but to swallow his anger and try to gain sympathy.
"Miss Duan, Ya'er and I are truly in love. Even if I beg you, please help us, okay?"
Duan Qingxi felt so nauseous that she almost vomited. She said, "How about I give His Majesty a suggestion? Why don't you just elope and come back after you give birth to the child? That way, even if the Emperor and Empress are angry, they won't be able to force you to separate, right?"
Helian Yun frowned, "No! Doing this will ruin Ya'er's reputation. She will never be able to hold her head up high for the rest of her life!"
Duan Qingxi sneered, "Come on, what about reputation? The Third Prince has a lush green meadow on his head, and you two are still kissing in the woods in the middle of the night. What are you talking about reputation? I'm ashamed for you!"
Helian Yun's face changed drastically, as if he had thought of something, and he angrily said, "The person from the hunting competition that night was you?!"
Duan Qingxi simply admitted it and said, "Yes, it's me. What's wrong with me? Do you still want to kill me?"
Helian Yun did have this idea, and the hidden weapons in his hands appeared.
Duan Qingxi saw this but wasn't afraid. She continued, "Not only did I know about this, I also told the person who saved me. If you have the guts, kill me. I guarantee that your Ya'er won't survive either."
As she spoke, she sighed deliberately, "Ah, I just pity Miss Zuo. If people knew that her innocence had already been exposed and that she had already done something like this with you, the Fifth Prince, would she be thrown into a pig cage?"
Helian Yun was furious, but he could only silently put away the hidden weapon and defend himself, "Don't talk nonsense! Ya'er is still innocent, we don't have anything at all!"
"Oh, according to what you mean, Fifth Prince, if they took off their clothes, touched each other all over, and looked at each other all over, as long as they didn't become one, then it means they are still innocent, right?"
"You...anyway, nothing that shouldn't have happened happened to us!"
Thinking of this, Duan Qingxi asked curiously, "Hey, did she help you with that?"
