Teaming up with her mother to take revenge on the scumbags! The Crown Princess becomes the darling o

This only made the eldest son, Haijin, even more confused.

Another world? A mother? And forced to commit suicide?

He understood each of these words individually, but when put together, he couldn't quite grasp them. However, his intuition told him that He Lingyi in front of him wasn't lying, so... she was his cousin's biological daughter.

Having formed this preconceived notion, Haijin heard her reveal everything.

"In this other world, I died of illness in the backyard of the Imperial Uncle's mansion. I thought that I could only go to the King of Hell to tell him about my mother's and my suffering. But when I opened my eyes again, I was He Lingyi, studying in the Vice Minister's mansion. When I saw my mother, I was also very confused. But since Heaven has made this arrangement, there must be a reason! So I stayed by my mother's side as He Lingyi, giving her advice and shielding her from many hardships!"

"What hardship?"

"After my mother broke with the Marquis of Haibo's mansion, Madam Guo seized the opportunity. First, she joined forces with Madam Guo to force my mother to break off her engagement with the Qiao family. Then, she forced my mother to lose her virginity before marriage and marry into the Qiao family. The Lü family was utterly immoral and despicable. They tricked and deceived my mother into taking all her dowry and helped her sister, a talented woman in the palace, rise to the rank of Imperial Concubine. Then, they turned their backs on her and drove my mother and me to our deaths. We had nowhere to turn for help, so we went to the Chi family. Minister Chi stood by and watched coldly, showing no regard for family ties. Madam Guo humiliated my mother at will, driving her to the brink of death. The second daughter of the Chi family even stepped on my mother's flesh and blood to marry into the Qiao family and live a happy life. But why? They did all sorts of bad things, but in the end, my mother and I died without a burial place. So now that I have been given a second chance at life, I must clear the way for my mother. No matter what the cost, I will make them pay for their blood debts!"

Hearing He Lingyi's indignant words, the eldest son, Haijin, was at a loss for words.

This was clearly beyond his imagination, but he didn't think He Lingyi had gone mad.

Because you can't fake hatred, especially in your eyes; he could even feel He Lingyi's loathing that wanted to crush them.

After a moment of silence, the eldest son, Haijin, finally spoke.

"So, you're my cousin, right?"

A single sentence brought tears to He Lingyi's eyes, who had been calm before. She had never appeared in this capacity before, and the fact that she was suddenly mentioned like this meant that the eldest son, Haijin, believed all her absurd words, or in other words, that her great-uncle believed them.

"Ah."

Seeing her like this, Haijin let out a long sigh.

Then she handed him a handkerchief and spoke softly to comfort him.

"Don't cry. Now that I've taken you in, I'll naturally help you out. No matter how willful my cousin is, it's no excuse for the Lü and Chi families to harm her. Tell me, how do you plan to take revenge?"

"I knew my cousin wouldn't abandon my mother and me!"

When she said this, there was a hint of coquettishness in her voice, which He Lingyi was unaware of. From childhood to adulthood, apart from her mother, she had hardly relied on any elders. They either suppressed her or deceived her in various ways, and she had never seen their sincerity.

Therefore, for her, saying this was also a form of progress.

Wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, He Lingyi's mood calmed down considerably. When she spoke again, she regained her composure and then spoke in detail.

"Back then, I devised a plan to make Chi Guiying suffer the same fate as her mother, who was despised for losing her virginity before marriage. As expected, Chi Yunjing immediately married Chi Guiying off to the Lü family for the sake of his future. There was a small accident along the way. Madam Guo was unable to resist and injured her head. Now she has been taken out for treatment by Chi Guiying and the Guo family. I want them to fight each other to the end and then use these things to drag Minister Chi down with me. But I can't find Minister Chi's weakness, so I had no choice but to come to my eldest cousin to confess."

"You! What are you doing with so much blood on your hands, you young lady?"

Although the words were meant as a reproach, they were more about heartache, concern, and care. He Lingyi could tell, so she returned a happy smile.

"I want to send them to hell with my own hands, only then can I clear my and my mother's name!"

Upon hearing this, Haijin sighed. Seeing the determination in her eyes, he stopped trying to persuade her.

However, as soon as he uttered the next sentence, it was clear that his feelings for He Lingyi had changed from those of a young lady from a great Confucian family to those of a close relative, and he asked a pointed question.

"Is it possible that Minister Chi's insistence on marrying the Second Miss Chi into the Lü family is not solely due to her premarital loss of virginity?"

"My eldest cousin is indeed amazing."

"If Consort Jia were only promoted to this rank, the Lü family wouldn't be able to reach the Imperial Uncle's residence. So, she gave birth to a prince? And is she very much favored by His Majesty?"

"Yes, before I passed away, Consort Jia had already been granted the title of Imperial Noble Consort."

No wonder.

"Where was His Highness the Crown Prince at that time?"

"To my shame, I was raised to be very submissive and hesitant. I struggled to manage even the affairs of the inner quarters, let alone the affairs of the court. I really didn't know much about the Crown Prince, but I vaguely heard from the Lü family that the Tenth Prince (born to Consort Jia) was the one who was truly capable and competent."

Haijin's face remained largely expressionless upon hearing this, but his heart was in turmoil.

Now that the Crown Prince is at the height of his power, even if Consort Jia gives birth, it will not affect the overall situation. So why is he now less powerful than a small child more than ten years later?

So who did the Lü family find as their backer that allowed them to openly confront the Crown Prince?

A layer of mystery had also appeared before him. Although he had long since stopped paying attention to court affairs, he was still moved when the case of Prince Jin's mansion reached his ears.

Three years ago, after his accident, he frequently drowned his sorrows in alcohol.

The Crown Prince visited the Marquis's residence and said only one sentence to him: "I believe you. Do you believe me? I will clear your name in three years!"

At the time, he took it as a comforting remark and never took it to heart. But it wasn't until recently, when the case of Prince Jin's mansion caused a great uproar in Bianzhou, that he realized the Crown Prince had never broken his promise.

With such a ruler, how could his subjects not bravely sacrifice themselves for their country?

Therefore, even though Haijin had ruined his reputation, he had no choice but to stand up and do something to protect the emperor after realizing that these things would be detrimental to the crown prince.

So after thinking for a moment, he said to He Lingyi in front of him.

“I will handle Minister Chi’s matter. If you have too much contact with him now, you will easily get caught up in it. Your strength alone is no match for the strength of the entire Marquis’s family. Don’t worry, your cousin is not only your mother in this world, but also someone we have watched grow up. If something happens to her, we will not ignore it.”

Hearing these comforting words, He Lingyi felt a warmth in her heart.

For the past six months, she has been searching for revenge on her own, with no one by her side to support her.

Hearing this now, she was happy for her honesty today. "Thank you, Uncle."

"You'd better keep that title to yourself. If others hear it, they might become suspicious of you, and that would be troublesome. Since you've taken over Miss He's body, live well and show the world that you're no less than anyone else, and neither is she!"

He Lingyi nodded heavily.
