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

She only wanted to be a woman who quietly sought revenge, and after her mother got married and her scumbag father and the Minister's family paid the price they deserved, she would leave Bianzhou. Now that she was going to be the Crown Princess, wouldn't she become the focus of everyone's attention?

Just as he was about to find a reason to refuse again, he was silenced by a single sentence from the Crown Prince.

"Although I don't know why Miss He harbors such deep resentment towards Minister Chi's family and has repeatedly made things difficult for them, I can tell you that as the Crown Princess, dealing with them would be much easier, including the Guo and Lü families that you dislike."

A few words were enough to set off He Lingyi's alarm bells.

She prided herself on being careful and cautious in everything she did, and she had never told anyone except Haijin why the Crown Prince was able to easily uncover this secret.

Could it be that he's been secretly investigating me all along?!

So, in the end, the secret of this possession and resurrection could not be kept?

The Crown Prince is not Haijin.

She never trusted the Crown Prince in the slightest, so if the secret were to be leaked, and the Crown Prince treated her as a ghost from another world and summoned a master to deal with her, wouldn't that be a huge problem?

Forcing herself to calm down, He Lingyi couldn't help but clench her fists under the Crown Prince's probing gaze. She wanted to knock the Crown Prince unconscious so he would forget what had happened today.

This is truly a case of trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead!

After calming down, He Lingyi forced herself to speak.

"Your Highness is overthinking it. What deep-seated hatred could a young lady from the He family have with the Vice Minister's Mansion, the Lü family, or the Guo family? It's nothing more than that I couldn't stand them ganging up on Sister Chi, so I stepped in to help. But that was only because they had ulterior motives. That's why I put up some resistance. Otherwise, if they had continued to cause trouble, what reputation would Sister Chi have left? I suppose the Qiao family has already come under Your Highness's control and wouldn't want this marriage to be tainted with such a bad reputation."

The crown prince paid no heed to her words.

Having served in government for many years, if he couldn't even figure out this little trick, then he shouldn't even dream of ruling the world. Therefore, he put away his desire to investigate, relaxed a bit, and changed the subject with a smile.

"I was merely making a guess. Since Miss He has no such intention, I will not say anything more."

He Lingyi breathed a sigh of relief. If the relationship between the emperor and his subject was so difficult to maintain, let alone the prospect of becoming husband and wife who would share a bed in the future, then she absolutely could not accept the position of Crown Princess!

Before they could fully relax, the prince continued speaking.

"However, the eldest daughter of the Chi family is quite lucky to have met someone like you who is so willing to help her. Since you are helping others, wouldn't it be even more advantageous for you to become the Crown Princess? After all, those who rely on their master's power are often more afraid of those above them, and Miss He should understand this."

He Lingyi was well aware that holding power would make her more adept at revenge, but this was the Crown Prince, and if she relied on his influence, she would have to pay back even more in the future. What should she do then?

Just as I was about to refuse, a brilliant idea suddenly struck me.

wrong!

Although she hadn't spent much time with the Crown Prince, judging from the incident at the Prince Jin's residence, he was not someone who acted rashly. Thinking of this, she felt that the Crown Prince's insistence on making her his Crown Princess must have a reason!

But what could she possibly have that would make the Crown Prince "covet" her?

After careful consideration, He Lingyi had an answer in mind.

Consort Jia is pregnant. Although the gender is unknown, it would not be a cause for celebration for the Crown Prince if she were to give birth to a healthy prince.

Therefore, it would be reasonable for him to take action against it.

However, the Crown Prince, who is in charge of the country, always focuses his attention on his unborn younger brother in the harem. This will inevitably leave some unclear and ambiguous rumors behind, so someone needs to handle this matter for him.

While he may not be the only candidate, he is the most suitable candidate at present.

The fact that he had repeatedly targeted the Vice Minister's Mansion suggests that there was a grudge involved, but the Crown Prince was still unaware of the reason. However, if he were to dismantle the Vice Minister's Mansion and take down the Lü family in the process, it would be a natural course of action.

Therefore, the Crown Prince took a liking to me because he wanted me to deal with Consort Jia's backer for him.

Thinking of this, He Lingyi felt that it coincided with the Crown Prince's plan.

However, the Crown Prince is like a towering tree, while she is merely an ant. If she wants to reach a consensus with him and carry out her revenge, she probably won't be able to do so without showing some "genuine sincerity."

"Your Highness, do you wish to use me to eliminate some people you dislike?"

Her words left the Crown Prince speechless.

The woman before him seemed shrewd and capable, so why did she suddenly change direction and ask such a stupid question? Did he need to rely on others to eliminate someone he disliked?

However, seeing the expectation in her eyes, and then realizing what He Lingyi meant, she didn't say anything. She simply poured herself a cup of tea, pushed it in front of He Lingyi, and said something ambiguous.

"I am not particularly fond of tea drinking, but I am well aware that the tea ceremony encompasses a wide range of things and requires careful consideration. If Miss He can share my burden and brew this pot of tea well, then I am not unable to drink it."

This statement successfully swayed He Lingyi's train of thought.

This made her even more convinced that her idea was correct. If that were the case, then she and the Crown Prince would have a common "enemy." She would use the Crown Prince's power, and the Crown Prince would use her schemes; they would each get what they wanted.

As I thought about it, I suddenly realized that the throne of the Crown Princess wasn't so hot to behold after all.

The Crown Prince noticed the slight softening in her expression. Seeing that things were easing, he knew that this path was viable. If he could give it a little push, then everything he wanted could be achieved.

Sitting across from each other by the window, no one knows exactly what the two talked about, but after leaving the courtyard in Haijin, the prince could no longer hide the smile in his eyes.

Upon entering, Haijin saw He Lingyi sitting calmly and asked a question.

"The Crown Prince has granted his permission?"

"No."

"Why did he look so pleased when he left? Did you give his permission?"

Upon hearing this, He Lingyi nodded at Haijin, which puzzled Haijin. "Didn't you say you didn't want to get involved in these troubles? Why were you suddenly persuaded?"

"With my current strength, I'm afraid it's impossible to completely bring down the Vice Minister's Mansion and the Lü family. So, by borrowing the Crown Prince's power, many things can be done easily."

Haijin disagreed with this statement.

“Lingyi, revenge is important, but it’s a bit impulsive to gamble your entire future on it. The Crown Prince will definitely ascend the throne, and then you will face more than just the Vice Minister’s Mansion and the Lü family. There will be the power of the court, the balance of the harem, and many other struggles and schemes. These things will trap you for the rest of your life. Are you sure?”
