Jinnian suddenly sat up, drenched in sweat, as if she had been fished out of water.
"Miss, what’s wrong? Did you have a nightmare?" Hemei softly called.
Han Jinnian looked at Hemei, holding her hand, "Hemei, what kind of person was I before?"
Hemei was puzzled, thought for a moment and then said, "When I started following Miss, you were already twelve years old. The things before you were twelve, I know some of, but not much. His Highness the Prince Ruyi knows more, but it’s all superficial. The one who really lived with you for many years is the wet nurse; she knows more!"
Hemei sat down at the bedside, "Miss, your clothes are all soaked through. Let’s change your clothes first, and then I will slowly tell you, alright?"
"Okay!"
Casually washed, Jinnian sat by the window, letting the cool breeze blow.
Hemei didn’t persuade her, just took a thicker piece of clothing and draped it over Jinnian’s shoulders.
"When I first started following Miss, you always had nightmares at night, often waking up crying. It’s just that Miss rarely told me. Even the wet nurse didn’t know. You kept it all to yourself!"
"Miss is a good person, kind-hearted, erudite, and excellent in medical skills, helping many poor people!"
"In my heart, Miss is a good master, never hitting or scolding us servants. You haven’t even said a harsh word. Even if we said something wrong, you’d only gently correct us, and provided us with good food and clothing, taught us martial arts, literacy. Shameless to say, but many noble young ladies outside don’t live as well as we do!"
Han Jinnian heard this and smiled gently.
"I never thought I was this good!"
She couldn’t remember things from long ago, but she recalled the events in the Marquis Residence of the Great Zhou Kingdom and at the border town.
Even memories of being drugged in a daze started to surface.
It turns out, at that time, she was suspicious, so when Chu Yu appeared, those people were afraid and took the opportunity to drug her, making her forget everything once again.
"Hemei, what kind of person is His Highness the Prince Ruyi?"
"His Highness is genuinely sincere to Miss. When Miss went missing, everyone thought His Highness would go mad, but he didn’t. He calmly issued orders one after another. Many thought he didn’t care, but within a few days, white hair appeared at his temples..."
As Hemei spoke, she suddenly fell silent, exclaiming, "Miss, you’re crying!"
Jinnian reached out to touch her face, wet and burning. "I didn’t cry before?"
"Hmm, for a period, no matter how sad Miss was, you just had red-rimmed eyes, and wouldn’t shed a tear!"
"Then I must have cried often in the past!" Jinnian said, with a gentle and soft smile.
"The wet nurse also said so, said that you were too aggrieved as a child, and cried all your tears dry..." Hemei said, kneeling down to look up at Jinnian, "Miss, it’s my fault. I didn’t take good care of you. That night, if I hadn’t been careless, if I hadn’t been so conceited, you wouldn’t have been in trouble. It’s my fault!"
Hemei said, bursting into tears.
Jinnian was briefly surprised, then smiled and took a handkerchief to wipe Hemei’s tears, "I don’t blame you!"
"Miss..."
"Well, life is never smooth sailing. It was fate and timing. When others painstakingly set a trap, they’re bound to gain some rewards. Stand up and tell me about the Capital City, so I won’t be completely in the dark when I return!"
