The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities-Chapter 23: Merely a Concubine, Still a Mistress

Han Jing was still pondering over the strange relationship between her mother and father during her journey. She believed that with her mother’s temperament, if it were someone else, it wouldn’t have ended with just a few sarcastic remarks. But to say she had feelings for Han Siqu seemed even less plausible. Judging by her mother’s demeanor, she clearly didn’t care about him at all.

And Han Siqu, he didn’t seem to have any affection for her mother either.

Truly, the relationship between these two was peculiar.

With the command issued by the Eldest Princess, the servants naturally dared not disobey. Therefore, no matter how unwilling Lady Li and Han Yan were, the two were still taken to the Buddhist Hall to obediently kneel and copy sutras.

By the time Han Jing arrived, the two were already inside, with two strong servant women guarding outside. It would be tough for ordinary people to get in.

Seeing Han Jing approach, the two servant women quickly paid their respects and stepped forward to open the door for her.

Han Jing left the little maid outside and walked in herself.

Han Yan’s eyes were red, unclear whether from anger or from crying.

Seeing Han Jing enter, Han Yan didn’t hold back at all and shouted coldly at her, "Han Jing, if you have the ability, come at me directly. What skill is there in tattling? Without the Eldest Princess protecting you, what are you even?"

Normally, Han Yan could definitely keep her cool, but she hadn’t expected that after last night’s incident, Han Jing would dare to act so arrogantly in front of her!

Han Jing truly had a big life, not dying after all!

Now, first she was hurt by Han Jing on the finger, and now being tormented by her like this, no matter how good Han Yan’s endurance was, she couldn’t hold it anymore!

It was Mrs. Li, kneeling beside her, who lightly snapped, "Shut up!"

Then said to Han Jing, "Please forgive me, Miss. Yan’er is still young and ignorant, and I hope Miss doesn’t blame her for speaking without thinking."

Han Jing chuckled lightly. Honestly, she really admired these shameless people; she didn’t even know how they could say such things.

"I wonder, Lady Li, in what capacity are you speaking to me?" Han Jing asked with a smile, indeed noting Lady Li’s face stiffen.

She remembered that Lady Li’s status was that of a direct daughter of the Marquis Mansion. Logically, if it weren’t for the Eldest Princess, she would be enough to marry Han Siqu as his rightful wife. It was just unfortunate that having married Han Siqu, although she barely attained the title of a lady, she was ultimately nothing but a concubine, still a mistress.

Mrs. Li was merely a concubine of Han Siqu’s, while Han Jing was the daughter of the Eldest Princess, personally conferred the title of County Master Chenyu by the Emperor. Moreover, she was granted the privilege by the Emperor to use the national surname. In other words, she, Han Jing, also had another name — Su Chenyu.

Han Jing’s words directly pierced Mrs. Li’s heart and struck her most vulnerable wound.

Having married Han Siqu, with the Eldest Princess hardly managing the rear courtyard affairs, her position as a concubine was almost equivalent to being the Marchioness Qing’an. But in front of Su Yaogeng and her daughter, she would always be a notch lower, only a servant.

"Han Jing! What right do you have to be so arrogant! On what grounds do you speak to my mother this way! You’re just a bastard of unknown parentage, while my mother is the Marchioness Qing’an! Don’t think that just because the Eldest Princess favors you, it can change your birth!" These words had been pent up in Han Yan’s heart for a long time, and she just hadn’t had the chance to say them. Now, since she had already fallen out with Han Jing, there was no need for her to endure anymore!

She was simply indignant, indignant that this ugly Han Jing, had so much more than her!
