The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities-Chapter 389: Battle for the Throne (Part 2)

General Han solemnly said, "Eldest Princess, please rest assured, this old minister will do his utmost."

Su Yaogeng nodded, planning to rise and take his leave.

General Han hesitated and said, "Regarding my young daughter, this old minister does not dare to ask for the Eldest Princess’s forgiveness, only that the Eldest Princess might consider this old minister’s humble face, and spare her life."

Having such a troublesome daughter pained General Han’s heart, especially since she was the only cherished daughter in the family, spoiled to the point of being unruly. But she just had to provoke Han Jing, whom the entire Capital City knew was the Eldest Princess’s precious treasure. If it were merely a common quarrel, even a fight would not have been a big issue, but it happened to involve such disgraceful means.

It was also their indulgence that spoiled her, making her unable to discern right from wrong, and thus was used by others.

Previously, he did not understand the truth of the matter, and thought that Han Yan had framed Xiao’er, unexpectedly she was involved in it, and even spoke out in front of the court officials and their families, leaving it impossible to cover up.

Now, he chooses to cooperate with the Eldest Princess, firstly for the benefit of the family, and secondly hoping that the Eldest Princess might, for his devoted efforts, spare Xiao’er’s life. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

After all, to destroy someone’s innocence is truly excessive. If it were him, he would probably not spare the other party either.

Su Yaogeng gave General Han a glance, and after pondering, said, "General Han is also a parent, you should understand that from my standpoint, this matter originally had no room for turning."

General Han bent over and cupped his hands in salute to Su Yaogeng. Indeed, the Han Family was at fault, and he truly had nothing to say. After a lifetime in the army, living a candid life, it turns out he did not educate his children well.

Looking at General Han’s graying hair, it was not easy for such a Great General to be so fretful for his daughter. Su Yaogeng sighed and said, "Given my nature, it would be impossible to let this matter pass, but since Jing’er hasn’t pursued Miss Han, although I do not know the reason, I respect her decision. So, this matter needs not be mentioned again, but General Han should still manage his daughter well, to avoid further trouble. We have to work together in the future, I hope there will be no further unnecessary troubles."

Su Yaogeng knew that Jing’er was not someone easily taken advantage of, nor someone who returns good for evil. She might have let Han Yuxiao go because she simply looked down upon Han Yuxiao’s minor acts. The reason she did not pursue it was that even though it was trouble, for Jing’er, it was a blessing in disguise. With Jing’er’s health, survival itself was not easy, let alone having a child, and Han Yuxiao and Han Yan’s reckless actions brought her to meet Su Yu, giving her both a child and altering her fate. Everyone hopes for the best for their children; as it stands, Jing’er has found a rare good ending, and may live a long life! Indeed, heaven has been kind to their Jing’er.

General Han was momentarily stunned, never expecting the usually domineering Eldest Princess to show leniency on this matter.

General Han bowed deeply to Su Yaogeng, sincerely saying, "This old minister, on behalf of my young daughter, thanks the Eldest Princess and Princess Chenyu for their mercy. In the future, should there ever be a need for this old minister’s service, I shall do my utmost without hesitation."
