Indeed, although it had only been a few short days, Prince Jing and Ye Jiu had become quite close.
Originally, Princess Consort of Prince Jing did not have a good impression of Ye Jiu. Now that she suspected Ye Jiu and Prince Jing of harming her own nephew, the Princess Consort found it even harder to accept.
With suspicion arose the need for investigation.
Nothing was a secret, and very easily, Princess Consort discovered that Ye Gaosheng was Ye Jiu's elder brother, and that a few months earlier, her nephew had broken Ye Gaosheng's leg over a soap recipe.
Thus, it wasn't difficult to guess why Ye Jiu would target Liu Sansan.
What hurt the Princess Consort the most was not that Liu Sansan might end up crippled, but that Prince Jing would go to such lengths for the sake of a maid, even to the point of being ruthless towards his Princess Consort's nephew.
