The Princess Kicks Down the Protagonists

Chapter 279 Can Love Overcome All Difficulties?

Xiaoyanzi was very curious, but pretended not to care.

"Tell me about it."

Cai Lian smiled. She had already made up her mind not to reveal her and Xiao Jian's identities and the purpose of coming here. After all, Xiao Yanzi was stupid and if she let the secret slip, it would be all over.

"I know your brother. You know he's a hero. He saved me before. I know a few things about him, so I wanted to tell you."

"Didn't you follow Yongqi into the palace? How could my brother save you?"

Xiaoyanzi felt indignant when she thought that Cailian was enjoying a good life in the palace while she and Yongqi had a hard time seeing each other. Now that Cailian had followed Yongqi out, Xiaoyanzi was even more upset.

She was still brooding over Cai Lian's entry into the palace.

"Of course I saw you outside the palace. As you know, I was bought by the Fifth Prince. Hero Xiao helped me before I met you."

Xiaoyanzi obviously didn't believe it, "What do you want to say?"

"Well, you should have some relatives in Dali. If you don't want to stay here, you can go to Dali and be free and happy. I've met your relatives before and can help you find them."

After Cai Lian was rescued by Xiao Jian, she followed Xiao Jian for a long time. She went to many places and met many people. Naturally, she also met Xiao Jian's uncle and others. She learned that all of Xiao Jian's relatives lived in Dali and that they also did some business there. It was easy to infer that Xiao Jian's base was in Dali.

I didn’t know what Xiao Jian’s situation was before, but after the truth about Xiao Zhihang came to light, even if Cai Lian was stupid, she could guess something. Xiao Yanzi would definitely be happier in Dali than here.

"I can't guarantee how good your life will be in Dali or how wealthy your family will be, but I think it will at least be much happier than staying in this small courtyard. Besides, don't you want to meet your relatives?"

Xiaoyanzi doesn't believe it.

If this was said by her own brother, she would naturally believe it, but when it came from Cailian, Xiaoyanzi just thought that she wanted to trick her away and keep Yongqi all to herself.

"Are you trying to trick me into leaving? You're miscalculating. I'm living happily here now. I've never even heard of Dali. Who knows if you're trying to lure me away to some remote mountain village?"

She is not stupid. Is there any place richer than the capital?

Unfortunately, if Xiaoyanzi was a careful person, or had a better memory, she would have remembered that Xiao Jian had mentioned the scenery of Dali many times, intentionally or unintentionally.

Cai Lian sighed, "There's no need for me to lie to you."

"Who said you didn't have to lie to me? You definitely had to. Besides, even if what you said was true, I don't think it would be any better than it is now. I'm already very happy to be married to Yongqi."

Cai Lian actually didn't expect Xiaoyanzi to refuse without hesitation. She was very confused and said, "Xiaoyanzi, you obviously can't stand this kind of life without freedom. You can obviously live a better and freer life. Why do you want to hang yourself on a tree?"

Little Swallow started to argue, "Then why did you hang yourself on this tree? Why don't you go find my so-called relatives?"

"Because they are your relatives, not mine. I am an orphan, and I am satisfied as long as I have enough food and drink. But you are different. You have relatives who can give you a good life.

"Besides, do you think being a prince's concubine will give you more freedom than being a princess of the royal family? You couldn't stand being a princess of the royal family, and now you're a concubine, and you're not even liked by Concubine Yu and the wife. How good do you think your future life will be?"

Although Cai Lian was just trying to persuade Xiao Yanzi casually to make herself feel at ease at the beginning, now seeing Xiao Yanzi being so stubborn, Cai Lian also got a little emotional.

She knew Xiaoyanzi's temperament. Xiaoyanzi would definitely not be able to bear the grievances in the future. Now that the Fifth Prince loved Xiaoyanzi the most, he would naturally indulge her in everything. But the Fifth Prince was a man after all, and a royal man at that.

Now that he loves Xiaoyanzi so much, he can let her and Xinrong find a way to get along, let alone in the future?

He can't even give the woman he deeply loves the position of wife and can only make her a concubine. How can you rely on such a man?

She just wants to live a comfortable life and doesn't care about Yongqi's favor, but Xiaoyanzi is different.

If the Fifth Prince changes his mind in the future, what should she do? These little swallows don’t want to do that at all.

Although she didn't know the exact situation of Xiao Jian's relatives, the Xiao family was wealthy and powerful. Xiao Zhihang had sent his children away before his house was ransacked. Is it possible that he didn't leave money for his two children to survive?

As Xiao Zhihang's orphan, Xiaoyanzi's relatives will definitely treat her well.

Whether you go to Dali and become a young lady or the daughter of an ordinary family, isn't it better than being the concubine of an unfaithful man?

What's with the term "concubine"? It sounds nice, but doesn't it also include the word "concubine"?

I originally thought that Xiaoyanzi would have a big fight with the Fifth Prince after being punished by Xinrong yesterday, but now it seems that Xiaoyanzi is really not in her right mind.

"Fifth Prince and I are truly in love. Even if there are people like you and Xinrong who have bad intentions standing in our way, we can still live happily!"

Xiaoyanzi was very determined.

Can love overcome all difficulties?

Cai Lian shook her head helplessly. In that case, she would just live a good life with Yongqi.

"I hope you don't regret it."

Cai Lian didn't want to argue with her anymore and turned away.

Originally, everyone thought that the matter would end in a bad mood, but Cai Lian obviously underestimated the extent of Xiaoyanzi's love for Yongqi and overestimated Xiaoyanzi's innocence.

Xiaoyanzi was guarding the gate of the courtyard, and the moment Yongqi came back, she complained to Cailian.

"Yongqi! That Cailian is a spy!"

Hearing this, Yongqi frowned, "What do you mean?"

Yongqi was in a very bad mood. He had suffered enough in the palace, and he didn't expect that his home was also not peaceful. He was a little irritable.

When he just entered the palace to pay his respects, the emperor only accepted tea from Xinrong and said that if there was anything, she could come to the palace. This was simply a slap in the face of the fifth prince in public.

He almost said that he no longer recognized this son.

Yongqi's face turned red and white, and the invisible slap hit his face again and again.

The same situation happened to my mother and Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager originally liked Xinrong, so it was natural for her to be close to her. That was not the case. However, Mother only pulled Xinrong aside to ask her about her life, worried that she would not be able to adapt to the life there and that she would be wronged.

Yongqi, who was like a transparent person standing by, had suffered enough grievances all morning. But his mother still took the time to ask about Cailian's situation. In short, she cared about everyone, but no one cared about him.

Finally, he made it back. Just when Yongqi wanted to take a break, Xiaoyanzi brought another bombshell. Yongqi felt overwhelmed.
