Han Youyi spent the entire afternoon taking care of Yu Xiangwei in her bedroom.
Yu Xiangwei caught a cold and started to have a fever in the evening. Han Youyi was so scared that she quickly asked the maid to call the palace doctor.
The court physician took Yu Xiangwei's pulse and prescribed medicine. He then said to Han Youyi, "Madam, the young lady is already afraid of the cold, and she fell into the water. She needs to be well-rested from now on, otherwise she will develop a serious illness, which would be very serious."
Han Youyi nodded: "Yes, we can't let her suffer from the cold again."
Yu Xiangwei closed her eyes and hummed in bed: "Mom, it hurts, I feel so bad."
Han Youyi quickly went to the bedside and grabbed Yu Xiangwei's hand. "Xiangwei, Mom is here. Don't be afraid! Doctor Wen has prescribed some medicine for you. You'll be fine after taking it."
Yu Xiangwei suddenly burst into tears: "Mom, it turns out you still love me. I was so afraid that you didn't love me anymore. I was so afraid that you would not want me anymore."
Han Youyi looked at Yu Xiangwei. This was the child she raised!
For eighteen years, this child has been her sweetheart, and she usually can't bear to even scold her. But now that she has found her biological daughter, could it be that this child no longer loves her?
"Xiangwei, don't overthink it. How could I not love you? You're my daughter, how could I not want you?"
"Mom, but you now have a daughter. My sister doesn't like me. She pushed me into the water and wanted me to die."
"Xiangwei, I will talk to Jinshu about this and tell her not to do that again. You two are sisters, you must love each other."
"Mom, my sister wants me to die. If this happens, there will definitely be a next time. Mom, I feel like I can't survive. I will definitely be killed by her."
Han Youyi felt very upset. The biological child she had finally found was going to kill the daughter she had raised for eighteen years.
How can we make Jinshu let go of the grudge in his heart and stop hurting Xiangwei?
At this time, Yu Xingyue also rushed into the bedroom. Seeing Yu Xiangwei lying on the bed with a flushed face, he asked with concern, "Xiangwei, how are you?"
Yu Xiangwei's heart choked and she started crying again: "Daddy, I thought you didn't want me anymore."
Yu Xingyue stroked Yu Xiangwei's head and said, "Silly child, why would Daddy not want you?"
Yu Xiangwei couldn't stop crying: "Daddy, it was my sister who pushed me into the water. She wanted to kill me."
Yu Xingyue looked at Han Youyi: "Is this really true?"
Han Youyi knew Xiangwei would definitely tell her father about this, and she couldn't hide it. "At that time, Jinshu asked Xiangwei to take her to the garden to play. I don't know what Jinshu was thinking, but she actually..."
Yu Xingyue stood up and said in a deep voice, "Jinshu has indeed suffered, but you can't have the intention to harm others. I'll go find her and ask her."
"No need to look for me, I'm here."
Yu Jinshu walked in with a calm and nonchalant look on her face.
Yu Xingyue walked up to Yu Jinshu and asked, "Jinshu, how could you push your sister into the water? It's winter now, how cold is the water?"
Yu Jinshu smiled calmly and stared into Yu Xingyue's eyes: "Governor."
Yu Xingyue frowned: "Jinshu, I am your father."
Yu Jinshu chuckled: "Until this matter is clarified, you are not my family. Because between family members, there will be no deception and distrust."
Han Youyi came over: "Jinshu, what do you want to say?"
When she heard Jinshu's words, she felt that Jinshu wanted to defend herself.
Could it be that she had wronged Jinshu?
If she was really wrongly accused, then she would be a sinner.
After suffering for eighteen years, she finally returned to her parents, but she still faced their doubts. How sad she must be.
Yu Jinshu ignored Han Youyi and stared into Yu Xingyue's eyes. "Governor, if a soldier made a mistake in the barracks, what would you do?"
Yu Xingyue was puzzled: "Jinshu, why are you saying this?"
Yu Jinshu said in a stern voice, "Why not be more direct? If a soldier complains to the Governor, saying that a certain soldier has committed a crime, would you punish him directly or investigate the matter first?"
Yu Xingyue blurted out: "Of course we have to find out first." He seemed to have understood something.
Yu Jinshu said coldly, "Since the Governor understands that the soldiers made mistakes, he must first investigate the facts before making any judgments. But why can't the Governor treat family affairs equally?"
Han Youyi said: "Jinshu, what you mean is..."
Yu Jinshu looked at Yu Xiangwei lying on the bed and said, "You just believed Yu Xiangwei's one-sided statement and thought I pushed her into this. This is very unfair to me."
She snorted coldly, "I have indeed suffered for eighteen years. I feel very uncomfortable and wronged. Why should the daughter born by an evil slave enjoy the care of my biological parents, while I can only endure humiliation?"
When Yu Xiangwei heard this, she suddenly widened her eyes and stared at Yu Jinshu.
The daughter of the evil slave, who is the daughter of the evil slave?
Yu Jinshu continued, "I'm not a malicious person. Even though everyone has treated me badly over the past eighteen years, I've never hurt anyone. The Governor can verify this by visiting the village where I lived. Besides, the mistakes of the past eighteen years cannot be undone, so I can only accept her."
She looked at Yu Xiangwei. "Even if the Governor's wife said she raised Yu Xiangwei for eighteen years and that this mother-daughter bond is inseparable, and she doesn't want Yu Xiangwei to know her true identity, I can understand that. But Yu Xiangwei slandered me for pushing her into this, and that makes me very disappointed. It makes me feel that I can't get along with Yu Xiangwei anymore."
She snorted coldly, "Today, Yu Xiangwei can slander me for pushing her into trouble. Next time, will she poison herself and say that I poisoned her?"
Yu Xiangwei struggled to her feet and walked up to Yu Jinshu. "What did you say? What did you just say? Who is the daughter of the evil slave?"
Yu Jinshu looked at Yu Xiangwei and said, "I heard that the evil slave pair will be executed in Xishi today. If you want to go and see it, you can go and have a look."
She pointed outside again. "Also, I've reported you pushing me into the water to the authorities. The government officials are waiting at the gate for the Governor-General to summon you. Once they come in and investigate, if there's evidence proving I pushed you, I'll punish you by death or by slicing you into pieces. If not, you've committed slander and should be punished according to the law."
She turned to look at Yu Xingyue, "Governor, I believe that the rule of law in Wei must be strict."
After saying that, she turned around and walked out of the bedroom.
Yu Xingyue turned to look at Yu Xiangwei and asked sternly, "Tell the truth, was it Jinshu who pushed you into this?"
Yu Xiangwei's face was pale, and the five words "daughter of an evil slave" were still circling in her mind.
Yu Jinshu also said that she reported the case to the authorities, and if the truth was found out, she would be guilty of slander.
If she commits a crime, will she die?
