Jiang Yue felt rather awkward being asked this by Xiao Yunsheng.
She closed her eyes, trying to reach into her dreams for an answer. Instantly, her mind conjured up a list of suspects: aside from the Second Prince, only a few people from the Fu family came to mind. But the Fu family was related to the General by marriage. If her suspicions were correct, the person who wanted her dead was the General’s closest kin.
Jiang Yue didn’t know how to phrase it. She remembered back in Wuyue Town, where aunts who had drunk too much would often corner their husbands and mothers-in-law with that age-old, impossible question: if your mother and your wife both fell into the water, who would you save first? In truth, both the palm and the back of the hand are flesh; pain touches those dearest to you most deeply.
