Eight-year-old Princess: Phoenix Reborn

Chapter 118 Confused, Injured

"Xia State, located in the south of Ning State, is relatively wealthy. Unlike Yelang State, which is brave and good at fighting, Xia State's people worship literature, because Xia State has a superior geographical location, facing the sea on three sides, and towering mountains on the other. Therefore, in the past few hundred years, it has been very peaceful. The seventh prince, the seventh son of the current Emperor Xia, is the most talented among the sons of the Emperor Xia. He was crowned king at the age of seven, but he gave birth to a After a serious illness, his health has not been very good since then, and the Emperor Xia has gradually neglected him, and the year before last, the Ninth Prince, who was named the Empress, was crowned Prince."

Qianyin stood in front of Yunshang with a roll of parchment, read softly, put away the parchment after reading, and said softly, "The Seventh Prince seldom appears in front of everyone because of his poor health. There is very little news about it, what we can find out is almost known to many people, and I am afraid it will take some more time for others."

Yun Chang nodded, and took the parchment, "It's good, let's inquire about it."

Qianyin nodded, and then said curiously, "Princess, I have seen the Seventh Prince from a distance several times in the past two days, and I saw that he was a chronically ill person, and he would have to breathe for a long time after speaking a few words. people..."

"Oh? Is such a person no threat at all?" Yunshang raised her eyebrows, her own girl, Yunshang naturally knew what Qianyin was thinking, "When I first returned to the palace, I'm afraid the queen and Huajing were also like this. Look at me, I have stayed in a place like Ningguo Temple for seven or eight years, and I don’t know the twists and turns in the palace. I am not in good health, and I have to cough for a long time when I talk. You can take advantage of it. You have to understand that in the royal family, the one who is the target of public criticism is always the one who stands out the most. Those who know how to hide their strengths and bide their time are the truly smart people."

When Qianyin heard the words, she understood a lot in her heart, and quickly responded, "This servant is taking it lightly."

Yun Shang nodded, and saw Qin Yi walking in with a strange look on her face, she handed Yun Shang a post and said, "Princess, this is an invitation from Cangjue Qingsu to the princess, saying that she is new to Ningguo and wants to Invite the princess to be your guide and tour the imperial city of Ningguo together."

The corner of Yunshang's mouth twitched slightly, what kind of plan did Cangjue Qingsu have? Touring the imperial city together? Be a guide?

Qin Yi was a little worried, "Now that the princess has an engagement, she can't go to the appointment no matter what, but, Cang Jue Qingsu is a guest after all, how should I respond?"

Yun Shang pondered for a moment, and a mischievous light flashed in his eyes, "Send the post to Prince Jing's mansion, just say that Cangjue Qingsu invited me to be a guide for him to tour the imperial city. Men and women are different. This princess is a bit inconvenient. Lord Jing Since he is the princess' fiancé, let him do it for her."

Qin Yi heard the words, a smile flashed on the corner of her mouth, she nodded and said, "I understand."

Yun Shang then turned to Qian Yin and said, "What happened to Princess Huajing and the Queen in the past two days?"

Qian Yin smiled and said, "Princess, Princess Huajing has been staying in the Princess Mansion to recuperate for the past two days, but the Princess Mansion is very lively these two days. At least two groups of people go to the Princess Mansion every night to check. Yes, from the Prime Minister's Mansion, from Cangjue Qingsu's side, and of course ours, and even the Seventh Prince of Xia Kingdom seems to have sent someone there."

"Oh?" Yun Chang raised her eyebrows, "Just don't let her die, it's still useful to keep her."

Qianyin nodded, and then heard a voice from outside saying, "Princess, Miss Wang from the servant of the Ministry of War, please see me."

"Wang Jinyan?" Yunshang stood up, she liked that hearty woman herself a bit, Yunshang walked out of the inner hall with a smile, and saw Wang Jinyan standing at the door, and walked away smiling when she saw Yunshang Come in, the laughter is full of joy, "What is the princess doing, Yan'er didn't disturb the princess, right?"

Yun Chang raised her eyes and smiled and glared at Wang Jinyan, "I've already interrupted you, tell me how you should be punished."

Seeing Yun Shang say this, Wang Jinyan didn't feel guilty at all, and said with a bit of slyness in his eyes, "Princess, you must not be angry with Yan'er. Now Yan'er is a soldier under Prince Jing. If the princess and The lord said, if the lord doesn't let Yan'er go to the battlefield, then Yan'er will cry to death."

Upon hearing this, Yunshang raised her hand and made a gesture to hit Wang Jinyan, "You still dare to make fun of me, look for a hit."

The two laughed together, and after a while, Yunshang said, "Why did you enter the palace?"

Wang Jinyan smiled and said, "Father came to the palace to meet the emperor. Yan'er and the princess hit it off right away, but the princess seemed to have forgotten about Yan'er and never left the palace, so Yan'er had to take the day you quietly gave it to me. Your jade tablet has entered the palace."

Yun Chang shook her head, "I dare not go out of the palace to see you. You see, this is still in the palace, so he only knows how to tease me. If I go out, you may not know how to bully me."

"Princess, your crime is too serious. How dare Yan'er, alas, when will we be able to fight? It's really meaningless to stay in this imperial city." Wang Jinyan sighed, looking a little disappointed.

Yun Chang laughed, "There is no one like you who thinks about fighting all day long."

Wang Jinyan smiled, leaned into Yunshang's ear and said, "Actually, it was Prince Jing who let Yan'er enter the palace. The princess stays in the harem. The prince is a foreign minister, so there is no way to come into the palace often. Previously, Yan'er accompanied Yan'er." Cousin went to buy jewelry, and met Prince Jing who seemed to be leaving the city. Prince Jing asked Yan'er to come into the palace to accompany the princess, and asked Yan'er to tell the princess that he needed to leave the imperial city for three to five days. Be careful, let you think about him more."

Yun Shang was a little dumbfounded, "This last sentence must have been added by yourself. I saw your heroic spirit that day, and you must be a woman who is different from other ladies. I wanted to make friends with you, but I didn't expect that you are as gossiping as they are, alas, I don't know people well..." Yun Shang pretended to be unhappy and sighed, but she thought in her heart that now Xia Guo and Ye Lang Guo's envoys are all in the imperial city, what is King Jing doing out of the city?

He suddenly remembered that he had just asked Qin Yi to send Cang Jue Qingsu's post inviting her to visit the imperial city with him to Prince Jing's mansion, so he frowned again.

"You still said you don't want to, look at your frown that can almost kill flies..." Seeing Yun Shang's troubled look, Wang Jinyan laughed out loud.

Yun Chang glanced at her before telling her about Cangjue Qingsu's post to her. Wang Jinyan looked serious when he heard this, "That Cangjue Qingsu is not a good person at first glance, he is exuding a radiant glow all over his body. There is a cold smell, I am afraid that the person who comes is not good. I heard from my brother that he is not here for Princess Huajing? Could it be that Princess Huajing has done something like that, and he despises it? But no matter what, the princess is sure. I can’t go, how about this, Princess, how about I go home and talk to my brother, let him help you solve it?”

Wang Jinhuan? Yun Shang pondered for a moment, but it was not impossible, Wang Jinhuan has always been closer to King Jing, if it was said that King Jing let him go, I am afraid everyone would believe it, "Then I will trouble you, Mr. Wang, but let you Brother, go under the banner of King Jing, and by the way, tell your brother, if this matter is done well, I will help him invite Miss Qianqian to have dinner together?"

"Miss Qianqian? It's the oiran who has been so popular in the imperial city for the past two years. The princess knows her? Yan'er also wants to make friends with her very much. Yan'er has heard many people say that that woman is really beautiful... ..." Wang Jinyan's eyes lit up.

Yun Shang smiled and patted her hand, "You look like this, if you don't know that you are a woman, you will think you have a crush on Miss Qianqian."

The two talked for a while, and Wang Jinyan left the palace with a smile. Qin Yi stood next to Yunshang and looked at the gate of the palace, and said with a smile, "This Miss Wang has a very straightforward temper. If the princess makes friends with her Not bad, moreover, the Minister of War is in charge of the mobilization of most of Ning's army and the appointment of officials, which is also very beneficial to Princess Yu."

Yun Shang nodded with a smile and said, "Qin Yi is similar to what I thought. Minister of the Ministry of War is a very family-oriented person. He only married one wife and never took a concubine. He respects and loves his wife very much. The two children are also very loving, such a person is very admirable."

Envoys from the two countries in the imperial city came to visit, and Yunshang knew their purpose, so she hid far away. For a few days, she never even went out of Qingxin Hall, and Cangjue Qingsu never sent any post. Qianyin said that Ricangjue Qingsu was waiting at the gate of the palace with great interest, but when the prince came, his expression was very bad. Yunshang couldn't help laughing, but she couldn't help but sneered in her heart. These days, Yunshang has been thinking about what kind of idea Cangjue Qingsu is up to. Ning Qian and the others have been monitoring the princess mansion, Cangjue Qingsu not only sent someone to visit Huajing, but also went there twice himself. He seemed to appease Huajing and said that when the matter calmed down a little this time, he would propose to Emperor Ning.

Yun Chang squinted her eyes, while comforting Hua Jing, but at the same time wanted to hook herself up? I'm afraid that King Jing's going out was also calculated by him, otherwise it would not be such a coincidence that Prince Jing had just left the imperial city, and his post was sent over, it was a good plan.

"Princess, it's time to hold the lamp. Princess, let's wash and familiarize myself and get ready to rest." Qin Yi walked in and helped Yun Shang take off the pearl hairpin with a slight smile.

Yun Chang nodded and entered the clean room. It has been seven days since King Jing left the imperial city, and he does not know what happened, but what Wang Jinyan said that day was three or five days, and now seven days have passed. Gui, I'm afraid things are a little tricky.

Yunshang was soaking in the bathtub, thinking about the movement in the imperial city in the past few days. Cangjue Qingsu was not peaceful. He had quietly visited many ministers of Ningguo, and the one who caught Yunshang's attention the most was Shun Ning Ye, the county prince of Prince Qing's Mansion. Yun Shang remembered that both Ning Qian and Prince Jing had become suspicious of Ning Ye, but nothing was found out except that Ning Ye had hidden his martial arts skills. Cang Jue Qingsu, the dandy son of an idle prince, had to meet him three times in private, which is really too much of an eyesore.

The Seventh Prince of Xia Kingdom did not move much, he stayed in the post house every day, except for the doctor, no one came to the door, and he was never seen coming out.

Prime Minister's Mansion... Yun Chang frowned. After returning to the palace that day, although Emperor Ning did not give an order, the queen hardly showed up, and stayed behind closed doors in Qiwu Palace every day. My greetings are also spared, and Hua Jing has been staying in the Princess Mansion to recuperate. It's just that these things happened, but the Prime Minister's Mansion didn't seem to have any abnormality, it seemed that it had nothing to do with them.

Thinking about these things in Yunshang's mind, she frowned, stood up, wiped off the water stains on her body, put on her middle coat, and walked out of the clean room. Qin Yi quickly brought a white handkerchief to help Yunshang wrap her wet hair Get up and rub it carefully.

The window was knocked open suddenly, and a red figure came in. Yun Shang was startled, and pulled Qin Yi away for a distance, staring at the red figure coldly, and when the man raised his head, Yun Shang realized, It turned out to be Wang Jinhuan.

Yun Chang frowned, and said with some displeasure, "Prince Wang, this is the imperial palace, this is the princess' bedroom, is it a place where you come whenever you want?"

Wang Jinhuan seemed a little anxious, gasping for breath, and said after a while, "Princess, the prince is injured."

Yun Chang was taken aback for a moment, and naturally knew that the prince Wang Jinhuan was talking about was Prince Jing, and felt uneasy in his heart. He frowned and said, "What's going on?"

Wang Jinhuan tried his best to avoid the guards in the palace, broke in, and was still panting, "My lord left the imperial city to do some business a few days ago. It was originally agreed to be up to five days, but I haven't come back after five days. I was a little worried, so I went to look for him, and when I left the city, I saw guards escorting him back, but he was seriously injured, and he is still unconscious."

Yun Chang was startled, she naturally knew Prince Jing's martial arts, who could hurt Prince Jing so badly? Qin Yi had already taken the coat for Yun Shang and put it on, Yun Shang didn't care that her hair was still loose, so she quickly pulled Wang Jinhuan out of the palace and went straight to Prince Jing's mansion.

When they arrived at King Jing's mansion, Yun Chang was taken by Wang Jinhuan to King Jing's house. There were several people standing in King Jing's house, including the housekeeper of Prince Jing's mansion, Wang Shun, and a few people Yun Chang had never seen before.

"How is the prince?" Wang Jinhuan asked hastily as soon as he stepped into the room.

Wang Shun's face was sullen, and he said after a long while, "I just went to the doctor to see it. Although the injury looks a little serious, it didn't hurt the vitals. It should be nothing." Then he saw Yunshang standing aside, and was stunned , then said again, "It's just because the prince was injured but didn't receive timely treatment, so he has some inflammation, and I'm afraid he will have a fever later."

Yunshang stepped forward, wanting to lift the quilt to look at King Jing's injury, but was stopped by someone, Yunshang raised her head, and saw a young man with a cold face frowning at her, Wang Jinhuan hurriedly said, " Leng Jun, this is Princess Yunshang and the future Princess Jing, so don't be rude."

The young man named Leng Jun was stunned, with a flash of understanding in his eyes, he moved away, Yun Chang lifted the quilt, and saw that King Jing's abdomen was tied with a thick layer of gauze, Yun Chang wrinkled Frown, this position is very dangerous.

Seeing Yun Chang's expression, Wang Jinhuan coughed lightly and said, "something happened to the lord, this news cannot be released, so as not to cause any trouble. Let's discuss the matter after the lord wakes up. Let's go to the study to discuss the matter first. The prince has been away from the imperial city for so many days, and there are quite a few people who are ready to move, let's discuss how to deal with it now." After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Yun Shang and said, "For us old men, this caretaker It is not easy to do things like this, and there is not even a servant girl in Prince Jing's mansion. Prince Jing and the princess have already been married, so it is not appropriate to ask other people to take care of them. Princess, I will leave it to you here. You, there are attendants outside, the princess can order anything."

Yun Chang raised her eyebrows, but said nothing. Wang Jinhuan took it easy for her to agree, and dragged a group of people out of the house.

Yun Chang sat on the edge of the bed and looked at the person lying on the bed. Perhaps it was because of the injury and fever, his face was slightly flushed, but his brows were tightly frowned, but it was not the same indifference as he usually saw. Similarly, Yun Shang had never seen such a King Jing before, and sighed silently in her heart, such a weak King Jing was really hard to get used to.

Yunshang stretched out his hand to test the temperature of his forehead, and then touched his own forehead. It was indeed a little hot. Yunshang sighed, and when he walked to the door, he saw two servants standing at the door, "Go help me make a basin Come on with hot water."

The attendant nodded, and after a while, a pot of hot water was brought. Yunshang twisted up the veil, put it on King Jing's forehead, and changed it again when the veil became cold. After tossing about for half the night, the heat subsided, and Yunshang felt relieved. He fell asleep next to the bed.

Early the next morning, the person on the bed opened his eyes, his eyeballs moved, and when they turned to the woman next to the bed, his pupils lightened up slightly, seeing that she seemed to be sleeping restlessly, he frowned again , wanted to sit up, but pulled the abdominal wound and fell on the bed.

This movement woke up the woman beside the bed, Yun Chang opened her eyes, and saw Prince Jing covering the wound on his face, frowning slightly, Yun Chang then rang out what happened yesterday, and stood up He came and said, "What's the matter? But it's a wound? I'll ask the doctor to come and have a look." Then he walked out the door.

But someone grabbed her hand, Yun Chang was taken aback for a moment, then turned her head to look at the person on the bed.

King Jing shook his head, "It's okay, why are you here? You took care of me all night yesterday?" His voice was hoarse, and King Jing couldn't help being taken aback.

Yunshang sat down again, and wanted to pull out the hand that was grabbed by King Jing, but he didn't. Yunshang was stunned, thinking about the wound on King Jing's body, and didn't force it, "Yesterday, a prince broke into me. I told you that you were injured, so I came over to have a look, how do you feel? Does the wound still hurt? "

Prince Jing nodded, "There is a guest room next to my room. I see that you haven't rested well. You should go there and sleep for a while."

"It's not that sleepy at all. Where have you been these days? Why did you come back all injured?" Yunshang helped King Jing tuck the corners of the quilt.

"Someone wanted to lure me out of the imperial city. I have a small group of forces hidden in the dark in a nearby city, but I don't know how they were discovered. A few days ago, someone gave me a pot. I went to deal with it, but was People are trapped." Prince Jing sighed, "I was careless."

Yunshang narrowed her eyes, "You just left the imperial city, and before I received the news, Cangjue Qingsu sent me a post, inviting me to be a guide and take him on a tour of the imperial city. This matter may have something to do with him ?”

"Oh?" A dangerous gleam flashed in Prince Jing's eyes, "Whether he did it or not, I'm afraid he knows some inside information. He must be comfortable in the imperial city. Soon, he will be too busy to take care of himself. This king wants to see how he will plot against others..."\u003c
