Eight-year-old Princess: Phoenix Reborn

Back in the imperial city, it was already the beginning of September. The weather gradually turned cooler, and the sound of cicadas became less and less. Yunshang took a pen to draw a detailed outline on the paper, and stopped writing after a while. What appeared on the paper was clearly the map of Xia Guo.

When Qianyin came in with tea, she saw the map that Yunshang had drawn, frowned, and asked softly, "Princess, why are you always drawing this map of Xia Kingdom?"

Yun Chang remained silent, put down the picture in her hand, picked up the teacup, walked to the side and sat down on the soft couch, with a bit of melancholy in her eyes, "Ning Qian should have arrived in Ning Country, right?"

Qianyin tilted her head and thought for a while, "If it's normal, the time should have arrived, but now the border is not smooth, I'm afraid it will take some time, maybe a few more days."

Yun Chang nodded.

It has been a few days since I returned to the imperial city, and the tense atmosphere in the imperial city a month ago seems to have disappeared. It seems that everyone has forgotten what happened during that time, except for a few families that disappeared inexplicably. Yun Chang hooked the corners of her lips. In fact, in many cases, the most ruthless people are these common people. Even if they are changed to be emperors, I am afraid that they can only exclaim a few words, and how to live in a blink of an eye.

With a faint sigh, Yunshang raised her eyes and looked at Qianyin, "In recent days, let the people below buy more food and grass for emergencies."

Qianyin nodded, and then heard the butler's voice from outside, "Princess Wangfei, Princess Shunqing is visiting."

Princess Shunqing. Yunshang paused in her hand, what was she doing here, remembering that Ning Ye had been dormant in her mansion for so many years before, I don't know if King Shunqing and Princess Shunqing knew about it.

Yun Shang put the teacup in her hand on the table and stood up, "Let's go, I'll go to the front hall to have a look."

Compared with the last time we met, Princess Shunqing seems to be much older, and there are more gray hairs in her hair. Yun Shang sighed. During this period of time, many things have indeed happened in the Shunqing Palace. A daughter-in-law and the queen Collusion, almost killed her. A daughter-in-law disappeared and has never been found. There was also a son who inexplicably turned into another person, and colluded with Xia Guo. Everything was like a heavy punch in her heart.

Yun Chang hesitantly raised her footsteps and walked into the front hall, "Shang'er has seen Princess Shunqing..." After saluting, she walked over to the main seat and sat down, ordering the servant girl to bring tea and snacks, She smiled and said, "Princess Shunqing is here today, but do you have any orders?"

Princess Shunqing's eyes fell on Yunshang, and after a long while, she opened her mouth and said, "I didn't want to trouble Princess Jing, but now that Prince Jing is not in the imperial city, I have no other choice. I came here today for my sake." About that son..." After a pause, he sighed, "After all, he shouldn't be my son."

As soon as Yun Chang heard it, she knew that she was talking about Ning Ye.

Princess Shunqing smiled wryly, "In all my life, I have given birth to four sons, and the youngest Ning Ye was born with a stubborn nature, which caused me and the prince to have the most troubles. Although he is still a dude in the past few years, he is also sensible. Many, my lord and I knew it before we could get some comfort, so it turned out that he was not our son..." Princess Shunqing's lips trembled slightly, "My Ning Ye, I don't even know that he is gone. have no idea."

Yun Chang listened silently, and couldn't help sighing inwardly, feeling sorry for the parents of the world.

Princess Shunqing paused for a while, and then tremblingly opened her mouth, her eyes were slightly red, and her voice was trembling, "I have always asked Princess Jing to send a letter to Prince Jing. , if you meet Ning on the battlefield...meet that person...if you can capture him alive, let's try to capture him alive, the prince and I just want to ask him, where is my Ning Ye's body..."

Yun Chang's hands trembled slightly, and it took a while before he answered, "Okay."

After Concubine Shunqing left, another attendant from the palace came to deliver an order saying that Concubine Jin had invited her to the palace to meet her.

Yun Shang tidied up and changed into a pink palace attire before entering the palace. Concubine Jin was watching the nanny breastfeeding Chen Xi, with a smile on her face.

"Mother Concubine." Yun Chang saluted, and Concubine Jin pulled her to sit beside her.

"It's been a few days since I've been back to the palace, and I haven't seen you coming into the palace. What are you doing in the mansion?" The nanny had already finished feeding, and Concubine Jin took Chen Xi over, hugged her in her arms, and asked with a smile.

Yun Chang shook her head, "It's nothing, just reading a book."

Concubine Jin glanced at her, and then said, "Prince Jing has news today that he is almost arriving at the house, and that he was ambushed not far from the house. damage."

There was Yunshang by King Jing's side, and Yunshang had known about the news for a long time, so he didn't react too much, and only nodded slightly.

Seeing Yunshang's appearance, Concubine Jin handed Chenxi to the nanny and let her carry her out, then took Yunshang's hand and said, "I asked my father in private, and he said, you have learned from him all these years. There are a lot of things. Father is very sure of your talent, and he said bluntly, even if there are three, I'm afraid I can't match it."

Yun Shang smiled slightly, "Mu Fei praised me so much, but Shang'er was flattered."

Concubine Jin couldn't help laughing, and said after a while, "I heard from your father that you intend to go to Kangyang."

Yun Chang's expression paused slightly, and after a moment of silence, she nodded, tapped her fingers on the table three times, and heard a bird-like sound coming from outside. Only then did Yunshang speak, "Concubine Mu, Prince Jing...is from Xia Guo."

Concubine Jin was startled, she retracted her hand suddenly, and accidentally touched the teacup on the table, the teacup fell to the ground with a crisp "bang", and the tea spilled all over the floor.

"Your Majesty?" came the suspicious voice of the maid from outside.

"It's okay, I accidentally knocked over the teacup, come in and clean it up." Concubine Jin raised her voice after she regained her composure.

A court lady quickly opened the bead curtain and walked in, cleaned up the broken teacups on the ground, and hurriedly retreated. The sound of the bead curtains colliding jingled, Concubine Jin's expression changed several times before she sighed, "You already knew?"

Yunshang shook her head, "It's not early, and it was just a few days ago. He... is not only from the Xia Kingdom, but also the eldest son of the Emperor Xia..."

Concubine Jin's eyes were somewhat surprised, and she recovered after a while, muttering to herself, "It's so..." After a pause, she seemed to think of something again, with some doubts in her eyes, "Then now Jing Wang and Xia Guo..."

Yunshang sighed, "My lord has always been grateful for the late emperor's life-saving and cultivation grace. At this time, he should not betray his father, but Xia Guo is his after all..."

But after all, he couldn't continue, and he said after a while, "I don't want to see him in trouble, but I also don't want to see Xia Guo unscrupulously targeting our Ningguo. These days, I have read a lot of materials, and now even if it is closed Focusing on it, I can accurately draw the maps of Xia Kingdom, Yelang Kingdom and Ning Kingdom, and I can also know the information of the border guards, including their families, their personalities, and their preferences. Although I don’t really command I fought a battle once, but, thinking about it, it shouldn’t be much different. I don’t know if my grandfather told my mother and concubine that I have been planted in every town in every country with hidden stakes a few years ago..."

Concubine Jin was silent for a moment, and finally nodded, but she was a little worried, "But, after all, you are a woman..." At the end of the sentence, it sounded like a sigh.

Yun Chang smiled, "Father is also sighing, but unfortunately I am not a man. Now that the power in the court is in turmoil, Prime Minister Li's rebellion, in the early court, I am afraid that most of the seats in the entire Jinluan Palace will be empty, and it will take a long time to recover." It will take some time. Now is the critical time, and it is really unknown who those soldiers at the border gate are heading for, so I want to go and see."

"Shang'er..."

Yunshang interrupted Concubine Jin's words, and said, "In this palace, there are almost no people who threaten the concubine mother. Chang'er is very relieved after leaving. I think, sooner or later, this country will have a It has to be handed over to Chen Xi, and I don’t want Chen Xi to receive a turbulent country.”

Yun Shang sighed in her heart, half of her decision was for Prince Jing, and the other half was for Chen Xi. In her previous life, she owed a lot to Concubine Jin. In this life, she wants to make up for everything that is best in this world.

While talking, there was a sudden bluffing voice outside, "It's not good, it's not good."

Yun Chang couldn't help frowning, turned around and looked at the maid who hurried in, she knew this maid, she was the concubine mother who had been with her concubine after she came out of the cold palace, her name was Yingyu, she presumably was concubine mother trustworthy.

"Is there a wolf chasing you from behind?" Concubine Jin looked at Yingyu with a smile, "What's wrong?"

Na Yingyu stomped her feet and said angrily, "I just heard from the attendant who was waiting outside the Golden Luan Hall that many ministers proposed drafts this morning, saying that the emperor has fewer heirs and needs to fill the harem and open up branches for the royal family." Scattered leaves. Your Majesty... Your Majesty actually agreed..."

Seeing Concubine Jin's expression, Yun Shang was slightly stunned, but it was only for a moment, and then she returned to her usual calm appearance in a blink of an eye, "Well, I see."

Seeing that Concubine Jin didn't seem to care much, Yingyu became even more anxious, and was about to speak when Concubine Jin waved her hand to stop her, "Go down."

Yingyu stomped her feet, but also retreated obediently.

The hall fell silent for a moment, and after a while, I heard Concubine Jin's soft and inaudible voice, "Now that the court is in turmoil, it's normal for him to use Nafei to calm people's hearts."

Yun Shang only felt a dull pain in her heart, "Mother Concubine..."

Concubine Jin suddenly turned her eyes to look at Yunshang, "If you want to go to Kangyang, I will mention it to the emperor later."

Yunshang was taken aback, but saw a bit of firmness in Concubine Jin's eyes, "When I was in the cold palace before, my father resigned and returned to the farmland, and I had no support in the court. If this is the case, there are some things that should be done Do it, so that Chen Xi won't suffer in the future."

Yunshang paused for a moment, then heard the overtones of Concubine Jin's voice, nodded and said, "Shang'er understands."\u003c
