The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities-Chapter 316: Did Su Yu Abandon His Lover After Seducing Her?

Su Xingqiao has been in the army for many years and has long regarded it as his home and his responsibility. The generals who follow him are also inevitably implicated because of him. It can be said that once the Crown Prince ascends the throne, the entire Nanyao Country will usher in a great purge of power.

Su Yaogeng cannot stand by idly. Su Yu would find it equally difficult to persuade Su Xingqiao, so from a personal standpoint, the best result would be for Su Xingqiao to ascend the throne.

Originally, she thought everything was still early. If Su Xingqiao kept a low profile and didn’t return to the Capital City, perhaps things wouldn’t be so dire.

But Brother called him back with a secret edict, and he returned. Regardless of the reason, he can no longer escape this vortex. Until the dust settles, it is bound to be a tumultuous storm.

Therefore, at this moment, the direction of the court’s wind becomes somewhat important. It depends on which side General Han, Han Si Que, and He Qi stand.

Especially He Qi.

He is quite an important figure in this war.

Perhaps this is also why Brother summoned him back to the Capital City. At this moment, even Brother is probably hesitant about who should inherit this throne.

Brother is good in every way, except that he is too compassionate. He should have long realized that the Crown Prince is not suitable to be the Emperor, but the bond of father and son is thicker than water. He did not make the decisive decision back then, and now it’s likely even harder...

Su Yaogeng did not want to talk much about court matters with Han Jing: "These things don’t have much to do with you. It’s not that far yet, there will eventually be a result. Just focus on taking care of your health and nurturing the child, that’s what’s important. As for He Yanxin, you don’t need to worry, Yun Peng will handle it."

Involving the court, Han Jing knew indeed there was no room for her to intervene.

As for He Yanxin, she had even less to worry about. The Capital City is, after all, her domain. He Yanxin trying to be arrogant on her territory, thinking she was a pushover?

Trying to steal her man, well, let’s see if she has the ability to do so!

Han Jing nodded and said, "Mother, don’t worry, I will take good care of myself."

Su Yaogeng gave her a few more warnings before leaving.

The days that followed were quite peaceful for Han Jing. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Over at Su Xingyan’s place, Han Yan would occasionally make trouble for him. Han Yuxiao was resentful because of what happened that day and often cried at home, causing the Han Family members to also harbor resentment towards Su Xingyan. This, in turn, led to the cold-shouldering of the Crown Prince. Upon realizing where the problem lay, the Crown Prince was less inclined to regard Su Xingyan favorably, thinking, "Isn’t it problematic enough already?" Thus, Su Xingyan had no time to seek out Han Jing.

He Yanxin frequently ran to Su Yu’s residence and to Baihua Garden, but she never managed to catch Su Yu even once. She didn’t even get to see Su Yu’s face. She asked He Qi to continue pushing the Emperor for marriage, but the Emperor naturally couldn’t truly accept and often found excuses to avoid meeting her. Within a few days, everyone in the Capital City knew that He Yanxin wanted to marry Su Yu, but Su Yu didn’t care about her at all.

How could He Yanxin bear such humiliation? Since she had already lost face, she decided to let it go completely and drag Su Yu down with her. She started spreading rumors that she was pregnant with Su Yu’s child, and accused him of abandonment.

Once that rumor was out, the entire Capital City was in an uproar.
