Shen Ruojing raised her eyebrows.
She glanced in the direction of the main hall and saw that Jing Zhen hadn't come out, so she understood what was going on.
She smiled and helped Yu Jing up by her arm. "Let's go."
Yu Jing's body was trembling uncontrollably, but she still tried her best to stand up and follow the person sent by the Queen Dowager.
As Shen Ruojing followed the group out, she suddenly noticed that Yu Jing had become calmer.
She raised her eyebrows and asked, "Not scared anymore?"
"Scared." Yu Jing's voice was still trembling. "But I know that being afraid is useless now that I have to go to the palace. My life is given to me by the royal family, and I must be loyal to them. Even if I'm driven out or beaten to death, it's not a pity."
In Country A, the royal power was supreme, and ordinary people had a deep sense of awe for it, even to the point of subservience ingrained in their bones.
