An Eight-year-old Princess

Chapter 175 The Hidden Facts (Part Two)

Yun Shang looked worried as she walked up to Hua Jing. She examined the wound and said, "Oh my!

Sister, this is such a deep wound. Does it hurt?"

Hua Jing looked Yun Shang in the eyes, and saw that Yun Shang was deriving pleasure from her

misery. So, she didn't say much, instead she retorted, "Hmm. No, it is just a small wound."

At Hua Jing's words, Yun Shang took the pink handkerchief from the madam and used it to put

pressure on Hua Jing's wound. She said with concern, "Even if it is small, we should still not let it bleed.

Father, I suggest that we stop the interrogation and call the imperial physician to bring some ointment

for sister."

As she was talking, she turned to examine the handkerchief in her hand. As expected, the blood stain

had become bigger. Yun Shang raised her eyebrows. She suspected the handkerchief was made of

silk and must have good air permeability. It felt light when Yun Shang held it, but it had one problem, it

was not so porous. As a member of the Royal family, Hua Jing would have ice served to her in her

room on a hot day. There would also be someone holding an umbrella for her when she went out. So,

whether her handkerchief was permeable or not wasn't important.

Hua Jing was surprised by Yun Shang's behavior. She figured out what Yun Shang was doing. Hua This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Jing quickly pulled back her hand, but it was too late. She looked at the handkerchief held by Yun

Shang, and found her blood had spread through almost the entire handkerchief.

"What happened? Why is there so much blood? Why is the handkerchief completely red? Call the

imperial physician here at once." Yun Shang shouted quickly, before Hua Jing could explain anything.

When Prince Qingsu was found injured, the imperial physician had been called. He was thus, close by.

Hearing Yun Shang's call, the imperial physician was able to get to them quickly.

"Your Majesty."

Emperor Ning nodded and said to the imperial physician, "You don't need to bow to me. Go check the

Princess's wound, and let us know if it's serious."

The imperial physician agreed and walked to Hua Jing, "Your Highness. Would you mind letting me

check the wound on your palm?"

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Hua Jing knew that she had to accept the physician's request.

She put her hand out for the physician to examine. Hua Jing felt desperate for a countermeasure to the

situation. She hated Yun Shang to her core.

The imperial physician took a quick look at Hua Jing's wound before he gave his diagnosis. "Her

Highness's wound was caused by a sharp object. The wound is not big, but it is quite deep. It shouldn't

cause a problem, but there will be some pain. I can prescribe an ointment for the Princess to apply on

the wound."

Yun Shang opened the handkerchief to show the stain to the imperial physician. She inquired, "If the

wound is not a big deal, then why did she bleed so much? The handkerchief is soaked through with her

blood......"

Knowing Emperor Ning loved and valued Princess Hui Guo very much, the imperial physician took Yun

Shang's question seriously. The physician examined the handkerchief in Yun Shang's hand carefully,

and then smiled, "Your Highness, correct me if I'm wrong, but this handkerchief is made of silk. Silk

handkerchiefs are thin and are easily dyed because of the special material. So even though the blood

on the handkerchief makes the wound look bad, it is not that serious."

Yun Shang nodded. "I see, " she said before stepping back. She forced an embarrassed smile and

admitted, "I was wrong, it turns out the wound was nothing. Mister Xing, you can proceed with your

interrogation."

As she spoke, Yun Shang put the handkerchief back in the madam's hand, as if she had done

something wrong and was trying to hide it. Her behavior was confusing and caught the onlookers'

attention. The onlookers recalled that when the handkerchief was first found, it had a small blood stain.

They had seen it clearly. But it was now much bigger and looked terrifying.

According to Hua Jing, she got the wound earlier in the day. So, the handkerchief was used to cover

her hand. But it started to bleed again. The handkerchief was soaked in blood when Yun Shang held it

against the wound. If it was used earlier for her wound, then why would there be such little blood?

Only then did they understand what Princess Hui Guo had done. They believed Princess Hui Guo

loved her sister so much that she didn't want to get her into trouble. That's why Princess Hui Guo

pretended like she didn't know anything just now.

They were impressed with Yun Shang's cleverness. In their eyes, compared to Hua Jing, who kept

lying, Yun Shang seemed kinder, especially considering she defended her sister in such a situation.

"Your Majesty......" A powerful voice rang clearly through the room as a man in military dress rushed in,

"Your Majesty, I've found an injured man in the rockery out in the backyard. He looks like a servant. The

servant was badly injured and in a coma. He has woken and claims that his master is innocent. He

demands to see Your Majesty......"

The man's words shocked most people. Yun Shang saw Hua Jing's face suddenly turn extremely pale.

She also noticed that Wen Qingzhu bent his head even lower. Yun Shang played with the jade pendant

on her waist. She smiled. 'Finally......

Well, Hua Jing. Karma has come for you. How does it feel?'

Emperor Ning said, "Bring the servant."

Then some soldiers carried a man into the yard. The man was soaked in blood. He was wearing a

servant's suit of a steel-gray color. His face seemed bluish. He must have been in great pain for his

face was sweating.

Once released by the soldiers, the servant mustered all his strength to prostrate himself. He said, "Your

Majesty. I am Mister Wen Qingzhu's attendant. I have something to report, Your Majesty. There are

untold facts about the accident that happened to the Prince of the State of Yelang. Please uphold

justice......"

Before the servant could finish his sentence, Wen Qingzhu, who had been kneeling on the ground,

suddenly jumped up and rushed to his servant. He bore a murderous look. But before Wen Qingzhu's

hands reached the servant, he was stopped by the soldiers who were standing beside the servant.

The servant raised his head and looked at Wen Qingzhu. Teardrops fell from his eyes. He said, "Mister

Wen, I know that you did it to defend the Wen Clan. But you're the only heir of your Clan. If anything

happens to you, what are they going to do? You've always taught me to tell what's right from wrong.

Mister Wen, why are you being silly this time?"

"You said that there were untold facts. Tell us, what has not been told?" Emperor Ning asked the

servant in a steady tone. It was hard for others to tell whether he was mad or satisfied. But Yun Shang

knew that the Emperor was about to lose his temper.
