Eight-year-old Princess: Phoenix Reborn

Chapter 287 Praying Mantis Catching Cicadas

Yun Chang nodded slightly, walked in, and saw that the Xiangzhu Hall was brightly lit, a court lady was waiting at the door, and when she saw Yun Chang, she hurriedly greeted her with a smile, "Princess, please wait a moment, and the maidservant will go and inform His Majesty first."

Yun Chang responded, and then sorted out her thoughts carefully.

"Princess, Your Majesty invites you." The palace man hurried out and said softly, leading Yunshang into the Xiangzhu Hall.

Xia Huanyu was sitting under the lamp reading a book. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he raised his eyes to look at Yunshang, and then moved his eyes to Ning Qian, who was embroidering, before saying calmly, "It's so late, I'm panicking." What's the matter here?"

Yun Chang hurriedly half-kneeled on the ground and saluted, "Your Majesty, when the minister's wife and the prince moved into the palace, they were too hasty to clean up the palace. Today, the minister's wife went to the Duke's mansion as a guest." , and ordered people to clean up the courtyard. But unexpectedly, a witch doll was found in a courtyard that had never been used, and the name and date of birth of His Majesty were written on the witch doll."

"What?" Xia Huanyu's eyes suddenly turned cold.

"The minister's wife was not in the mansion at that time, and the servant who found the witchcraft doll was also an old man in the original mansion. He did not report the matter, but spread it privately. When the steward found out, the servant who found the witchcraft doll The person has died suddenly, and the witch doll has disappeared. The minister feels that this matter is of great importance, so she came to the palace late at night to report, but fortunately, His Majesty has not rested yet." Yun Chang lowered her head, perhaps just in time to catch up A little anxious, a thin layer of sweat seeped out of the vest, and the underwear was already wet, making it uncomfortable to stick to the body.

After not hearing Xia Huanyu's response for a long time, Yunshang's eyes fell on her knee, where a plum blossom was embroidered in full bloom.

"Has Prince Rui entered the palace?" Yun Shang heard Xia Huanyu's voice after a while, with a bit of chill.

Yun Chang quickly responded, "Here we come, but at this time, the prince is inconvenient to enter the harem, so he asked his wife to report. The prince is waiting in the meeting hall at this time."

Xia Huanyu gave a "huh" and stood up, "In that case, I should go to the meeting hall. If you want to go back to the mansion, tell Liu Wen'an to send some guards to take you back."

The meaning of these words was that she didn't want Yunshang to follow her to the meeting hall. Yunshang pondered for a moment, then replied, "Yes, my wife understands."

Xia Huanyu bypassed Yunshang and walked out of the hall, the sound of "The emperor gets up" resounded throughout the Xiangzhu hall.

After Xia Huanyu left, Ning Qian asked the servants to retreat, went to Yunshang and helped Yunshang to stand up, then pulled her to sit down on a chair beside her, "Master, you are always calm when things happen. , this time it was a little reckless."

Seeing that Yun Shang was silent, Ning Qian said softly, "It's not wrong for the master to report to His Majesty before the enemy, but the master can do better, since Prince Rui's palace has already appeared, Then the master might as well let some of those things appear in every palace in the palace and every palace in the imperial city. At that time, it will be a good show. There will definitely be some who have discovered it but are eager to destroy it. The one who planted the blame. The master just needs to sit on the sidelines, and the real culprit will soon lose his footing."

Yun Chang raised her eyes and stared at Ning Qian for a long time, before she smiled slightly, "Your idea is very good, it's not too late to do it now. Today, I will stay in this Xiangzhu Palace, and the prince is discussing matters The palace is with His Majesty, and His Majesty will never doubt me."

Ning Qian pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Master, it's a good move, this subordinate will order someone to arrange it."

"The witch doll remember to use the cloth in the palace, but it can't be too rare cloth. The palace people can make clothes, and if there are no traces, they can make as much as they can. Let people go, use old thread, and the embroidery skills will definitely not be revealed." Yun Chang instructed softly.

Ning responded with a smile, "Don't worry, master."

Seeing Ning Qian calling people in, Yun Shang arranged everything in an orderly manner, feeling a little emotional in her heart, "It seems that a place like the imperial palace is really the most training place. You used to do things safely, but the way is right. Now that I have more eyes, I don’t know if it’s good or not.”

After Ning Qian finished arranging things, she turned around and said to Yun Shang with a slight smile, "In this palace, eating and drinking are the best, and this subordinate thinks it's quite good. This subordinate was born in a brothel, if it wasn't for the master I saved my life with the old master, I am afraid that I will watch my mother being tortured to death that time, and I can't escape that fate. I know that the master has always felt guilty for letting me enter the palace, but this is the path chosen by the subordinates. Yes, and the subordinates are very satisfied with their current life."

Yun Chang lowered her head, smiled slightly, and did not speak.

"Since the master is not going back to the mansion tonight, let's go to the side hall to rest for a while. The subordinates have heard the report from the palace servants. Then Princess Tai'an may come early in the morning. The master now only needs to recharge his batteries and wait Just watch a play tomorrow." Ning said with a slight smile.

Yun Chang nodded, and Ning Qian turned on the lamp herself, and walked to the side hall with Yun Chang, "The bed curtains, sheets and bedding are all newly replaced, let Qian Meng come and wait for the master to freshen up."

Then, a woman dressed as a court lady came out, and Yun Shang knew that she was her own when she heard her name was Qian Meng. She smiled and nodded slightly, "In the future in the palace, you don't have to call me master. If someone with a heart hears it, it will definitely cause an uproar."

Ning responded with a smile, saluted and then retreated.

In the early morning of the second day, I really heard a voice from outside, "Yesterday you said that the emperor had an order not to let anyone see it, and now it's almost time for the morning court, why hasn't the emperor come out?"

The voice was somewhat domineering, as if he was questioning the palace servants outside the palace. Yun Chang hugged the quilt and sat up, and saw that Qian Meng was already waiting beside her.

"Master, is he going to get up?" Qian Meng asked with a smile.

Yun Chang rubbed her forehead and nodded, "Get dressed."

After getting dressed, washing and combing her hair, Yun Chang walked out of the side hall, and saw Ning Qian also coming out of the main hall, Ning Qian smiled and nodded at Yun Chang, before raising her head Facing the palace man at the door, he said, "Open the door."

As soon as the door was opened, Tai'an's voice suddenly became louder, "Slave dog, I will definitely take your dog's head after I and the emperor report it."

As soon as the words fell, a purple figure appeared at the entrance of the hall. Princess Tai'an was dressed in a purple floor-length dress, elegant and luxurious, with a head ornament on her head, a huge emerald walker, and a peony flower on her head. It's just that on the face, because of anger, it looks a bit ferocious.

Princess Tai'an walked towards the hall aggressively, but her steps suddenly stopped, her eyes fell on Ning Qian, and then at Yunshang, her face was full of astonishment.

Ning Qian knew that she must be thinking too much, so she smiled and said, "Princess Tai'an came to Xiangzhu Hall so early to find something with His Majesty? It's just a coincidence that Prince Rui and Princess Rui entered the palace in the middle of the night yesterday. The father-in-law came in a hurry to talk to His Majesty, and His Majesty went to the meeting hall to discuss government affairs with Prince Rui, but he didn't come back all night. Princess Rui and Prince Rui entered the palace together, but it was too late. Rested in the side hall."

Princess Tai'an's complexion suddenly became very ugly, "I begged to see the emperor's brother last night. Your palace said that the emperor's brother has orders and no one should disturb him. Why are they able to see him?"

Ning Qian smiled slightly, "Your Majesty did say that no one should be disturbed, but I heard from Eunuch Liu that His Majesty has also decreed that if you are Prince Rui, you can meet directly anytime and anywhere."

Princess Tai'an stomped her feet fiercely, glared at Ning Qian, turned around and walked out of the hall.

"This princess has been spoiled by the queen mother, and her temper is really not flattering. I am afraid that there is no princess like her in this world. There is no concubine, but there are hundreds of faces, more than your majesty's harem." Somewhat spectacular, and even a little bit displeased, he killed palace officials and face leaders at will. I see, what happened yesterday, I'm afraid she is inseparable from it. You just sent a letter yesterday, and she was there There was a clamor outside the hall asking to see the emperor, I was a little more careful, and I added some embellishments to your majesty, and the emperor said no, so I suppressed it." Ning Qian looked at the purple skirt that disappeared in front of the palace door Swing, walked to Yunshang and whispered.

Yun Chang nodded slightly, "When I came yesterday, I just saw her outside the palace, she seemed to have been waiting for some time, but if the queen or other princes or other princes' henchmen did this, I would understand But she is just a princess, and we have just come to Xia Kingdom, we should have no enmity with her, why would she do this?"

Hearing this, Ning Qian was silent for a moment, and then said softly, "This matter is indeed a bit strange, but although Princess Tai'an is a bit domineering, she doesn't have any ideas. I think she may have been picked up by others. , was used as a knife."

"If that's the case, then the person behind her should check it carefully, so as not to be tricked by someone but not know who the opponent is." Yun Shang said calmly, but she didn't agree with Ning Qian's words in her heart.

As Ning Qian said yesterday, this palace is the place where there is no shortage of calculations. It is true that a princess has a noble status. She grew up in the public. She was either calculated by others, or she was used to being calculated by others. Princess Tai'an is already in her thirties. If she is said to be so easy, she will be picked up by others. She wanted to do such a dangerous thing, but she couldn't believe it.

In the palace of Xia Kingdom, it really is much more interesting than that of Ning Kingdom. Yun Shang slightly evoked a smile. Where there are many women, there are many calculations. Previously, there were only a dozen concubines in Ningguo Palace, so there were so many farces. In the Xia Kingdom's harem, there are dozens of concubines of the crowd.

"Are you ready for the witchcraft dolls? Next, it's time to choose a place for the witchcraft dolls to show up." Yun Shang said with a smile. \u003c
