Aunt Xi watched personally, although the beating wasn’t light, there was leniency, and such injuries were nothing much for Dongbao.
Seeing Han Jing approach, she still felt very guilty in her heart: "Miss, this is all my fault, no matter how the Princess punishes me, it’s deserved."
Han Jing poured a glass of water and handed it to her: "Alright, stop saying these things. Take good care of your injuries, and once you’re better, learn well under Aunt Xi. In the future, no matter what you do, you must be more careful. I was too careless and got deceived by them."
Dongbao took the glass, her nose tingling, she choked up: "Miss, I really don’t deserve you treating me so well..."
Han Jing gave her a light slap on her head: "Silly girl, we grew up together, our bond is naturally different from others. In the future, we have many things to do, how can you be missing!"
Dongbao nodded: "Mhmm, don’t worry Miss, from now on, I will definitely be careful in everything I do!"
Han Jing smiled and nodded.
Dongbao looked at her in confusion: "Miss, why do I feel like you’ve become different overnight!"
Han Jing raised an eyebrow: "Oh? How have I changed?"
"Hmm..." Dongbao thought for a long time, suddenly her eyes lit up: "It’s like, you’ve grown up overnight!"
"Pfft—" Han Jing laughed: "People, eventually do grow up. Have a good rest, in a few days, I have something very important to entrust to you."
"Mhmm!" Dongbao quickly agreed.
Han Jing’s room was right next to Dongbao’s. After comforting Dongbao, Han Jing went back to rest. Although she had basically figured out her identity now, her memory was not very clear, and she still needed Dongbao’s help for many things. Dongbao grew up with her, like sisters, the bond between them was unquestionable. Therefore, Han Jing trusted her and planned to keep her by her side.
The next morning after breakfast, Han Jing went to greet Su Yaogeng, but found that Su Yaogeng was already prepared to enter the palace.
Han Jing thought of her plan and whispered something to Su Yaogeng.
Su Yaogeng didn’t care what Han Jing wanted to do, anyway, whatever she asked her to do, she would just do it.
Thus, Su Yaogeng entered the palace and, without saying anything else, mentioned that yesterday in front of Prince Ling Mansion, Su Xingyan attacked Han Jing, many townsfolk saw it, and Su Yu could also testify. It happened that the Emperor had summoned Su Yu into the palace, and just after Su Yaogeng finished speaking, Su Yu came in and very cooperatively testified.
The Emperor was immediately troubled by these two.
Knowing Han Jing’s temperament as her uncle, how could he not be aware? If they said his son resorted to violence, if he wasn’t pressed, would he even have acted?
But he couldn’t do anything about his own sister. If Su Yu hadn’t intervened, he could get someone to find out the truth and speak a few good words for his son, given that he still felt guilty about the arranged marriage.
Yet of all times, the usually uninvolved Su Yu happened to intervene now, stirring things up by stating that if he hadn’t stopped him in time, Su Xingyan was planning to end Han Jing’s life!
Hearing this, Su Yaogeng immediately flared up, demanding that if the Emperor didn’t call Su Xingyan over to clarify things, today’s matter wouldn’t be over!
