Rong Ju was stunned for a long moment before she curtsied. "Greetings, Princess, Princess Yongjia."
Hua Yang said, "We are all family. There is no need for such ceremony."
Rong Ju was still utterly shocked to hear the words "we are all family." 'How could I have never imagined it was Princess Hua Yang? She's His Majesty's own sister. Doesn't this throw the entire family hierarchy into chaos?'
Shi Rou stood up and said, "Mother, Mother, my finger hurts so much! I can't even use chopsticks anymore. You have to save me! I don't want to be in this jail cell any longer. It's too dark and gloomy here."
Rong Ju's heart ached as she said to Shi Rou, "My daughter, there is only one month left. Please, try to endure it. Mother has brought you some books. You can read them to cultivate your character."
Shi Rou said, full of regret, "Mother, I shouldn't have listened to my aunt. I shouldn't have listened to her."
