Eight-year-old Princess: Phoenix Reborn

When Ning Qian heard this, her complexion suddenly turned cold, and she said sharply, "Nonsense!"

Seeing the faint veins popping up on her forehead, Yun Shang seemed to be more angry than her, so she couldn't help laughing: "It's really absurd, but don't be too anxious, be careful of the child."

Ning Qian's eyes swept over the people outside the pavilion, all of them were trembling, as if they were terrified.

Ning Qian slowed down her voice, and said softly: "The reason why I am so angry is because I have heard a lot about Princess Rui and Prince Rui. It can be said that no matter in Ningguo Still in Xia Kingdom, the two of them are role models for all couples."

Seeing that everyone was listening attentively, Ning Qian continued: "Prince Rui was famous as the god of war when he was in Ning country, but he has always kept himself clean when it comes to men and women. He never had a single maid. Until he met Princess Rui, at that time Princess Rui was still the most honorable princess in Ning Kingdom, and the song "Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix" won the two of them to fall in love with each other. Weight, naturally there are many women who wanted to marry Prince Rui as concubines, but Prince Rui declined them one by one, and promised that there will be only Princess Rui in the next life."

Yun Shang smiled slightly, thinking that Ning Qian had been immersed in the harem for more than a year, and now she has learned a lot, knowing how to use some more roundabout methods to dispel the suspicions of others.

But thinking of Luo Qingyan again in his heart, he sighed softly again, and murmured: "I hope to have a person with one heart, and never leave each other."

Then he stood up and said: "Caiyi will take care of this matter. Since you came to find me, let's go back to the Chaoxia Palace and sit down. It's next to the lake, and the wind is a bit strong. You didn't wear an extra cloak when you went out." Clothes, be careful of catching a cold."

Ning Qian responded, followed Yun Shang to stand up, and led a group of concubines to the Zhaoxia Palace.

A woman following Ning Qian was somewhat interested in the story Cai Ning Qian told, and said softly: "I heard that when Prince Rui was in Ning State, he was the adopted son recognized by the late Emperor Ning State, that's not Princess Rui's... ..."

"Uncle Emperor." Yun Shang laughed when he heard the words, "Well, Prince Rui was my Uncle Emperor at that time."

The woman was stunned when she heard the words, and then she smiled and said: "Nephew, I'm afraid it's a bit harder than ordinary people, but it's really enviable, Prince Rui looks at such a cold person, but can fall in love with the princess. "

The corners of Yunshang's mouth curled up, thinking in her heart, it's not too hard, originally the uncle and nephew should be regarded as a scandal in the royal family, but it was probably because Luo Qingyan was too strong and never cared about others say what. Besides, Luo Qingyan and her are not real uncles and nephews, so it's fine.

Yun Chang paused slightly, only to realize that she couldn't help thinking of Luo Qingyan again, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, thinking to herself, look, Luo Qingyan is so strong, I don't know Unknowingly, it broke into her heart and made her worry about it all the time.

When they arrived at Zhaoxia Hall, Yun Chang ordered the palace servants to make tea, and then took everyone to sit down in the outer hall.

Ning Qian then asked: "What's the situation yesterday? Earlier, I heard from the Empress that there were almost no survivors in Prince Rui's residence, but I was taken aback, and I was not easy to ask, so I waited until the greetings were finished. After going back to have breakfast, I hurried over eagerly."

Yun Chang nodded slightly: "Yesterday, I entered the palace at the Wanshou Banquet. You also know that the prince was poisoned by the snow lotus before and has been unconscious. I'm afraid someone will seize the opportunity and take advantage of me. Most of the hidden guards had the opportunity to leave the mansion, so they did it. When I hurried back to the mansion, there were corpses all over the mansion. The courtyard where my lord and I lived was also on fire, and it was burnt beyond recognition."

Yun Shang sighed, "The only thing to be thankful for is that the prince has not been found yet, which at least allows me to comfort myself, the prince is fine."

"Prince Rui is a blessed person, and he will be safe and sound." Ning Qian quickly replied.

Yun Chang lowered her head and nodded slightly.

Because there were other people there, Yun Shang and Ning Qian chatted casually for a while, almost all about what happened in Prince Rui's residence yesterday. Ning Qian sat for a while, then got up with the others to leave.

It was only then that the hall of Zhaoxia became quiet, and Yunshang picked up the teacup calmly, took a sip of tea, and asked lightly, "Have the soldiers and horses brought by the Seventh Prince arrived at Lingxi?"

Qianzhuo thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "According to the calculation of the footsteps, it should take about two or three days."

Yun Chang put the teacup down, nodded, and after a moment of silence, he murmured: "Two or three days, it takes three or four days to set up the camp, so six or seven days is enough."

"What is enough?" Qian Zhuo asked softly, a little confused.

Yun Chang smiled, but didn't answer.

After a long time, he changed the subject again, "We are in the palace now, and it is not easy to transmit information outside. You should think about it, and I want to know the situation outside as soon as possible. The border, Jincheng, all the things I am paying attention to Pay special attention to the hidden guards we have left around Prince Rui's residence, I want to hear reports about them every evening."

Qianzhuo quickly agreed.

Yun Shang tapped on the table lightly, "It's not all a bad thing that we are in the palace now, at least, the Queen, Concubine Shen Shu, and Mrs. Xian, we can grasp their movements as quickly as possible."

Qin Yi smiled softly and said, "That's true."

It was too late to enter the palace yesterday, and Yun Chang didn't check the Zhaoxia Palace carefully. Today, I found out from the queen that this is the place where the eldest princess lived in the palace, so I have to check it carefully. some. Yun Chang gave instructions to the palace servants waiting outside the palace, only saying that she was tired and wanted to take a nap. He also ordered Qianzhuo and Qinyi to stand guard at the door of the dormitory and the other in the dormitory.

Yun Chang entered the inner hall and did not rest, but checked the hall one by one. Although it has been thirty or forty years since the eldest princess left the palace and established her own princess mansion, there are still many traces in this palace. There are calligraphy posts she practiced when she was a child, jewelry she once wore, clothes she wore, and piano scores she played.

Yun Shang took some books she had read, and looked through them one by one.

It was already around noon when Qianzhuo came in to report Caiyi's return.

Caiyi came in and bowed to Yunshang, then hurriedly said: "My servant asked Liu Changyi to be placed in her palace first, and I have already sent someone to report to Manager Liu, and the results should come soon."

Yun Chang responded, and let Caiyi back down.

Unexpectedly, the next morning, Yunshang received the news that Liu Changyi had died.

Liu Changyi died in Yancui Lake, and the maid who was cleaning by Yancui Lake in the morning saw her body floating from the lake. The corpse seemed to have been soaked in the lake for a long time, and it was already a little swollen.

Yun Shang noticed that she was still wearing the light yellow palace dress from yesterday.

There were quite a few palace people watching by the lake, their voices were a bit noisy, but Yun Shang could still clearly hear the words "Princess Rui" being mentioned by them constantly.

Yun Shang smiled wryly, it really was a wave of ups and downs, and she had only been in the palace for two days before she was killed.

The concubine died, the queen should have personally intervened, but the palace attendant who went to invite her came back alone quickly, only saying that the queen's empress is out of shape today, she said it was just a change of clothes, let the internal guard handle it .

Yun Shang raised her eyebrows. Logically speaking, this matter has something to do with her, and she is the biggest suspect. The queen never liked her. According to the queen's temperament, she should be the first to watch a good show, why she shirked it, it's really a bit strange.

The internal servant came not too late, and the leader was an internal servant wearing dark blue clothes. First, he ordered people to salvage Liu Changyi's body, and then asked Wu Zuo to do a simple autopsy first.

Wu Zuo looked carefully for a while, then raised his head and said, "Grandpa Qi, he was indeed drowned and there were no other injuries."

That Eunuch Qi nodded, as if he was used to such scenes, he waved his hand casually and said, "Take the corpse back and examine it carefully. This is Liu Changyi who lives in the east side hall of Mingcui Palace." ?”

Someone nearby responded, and Eunuch Qi nodded slightly, and said casually: "Bring all the palace servants in her palace back to the inner guard."

The servants who followed behind him headed towards Mingcui Palace. Eunuch Qi looked at the people by the lake, frowned and said, "There are so many people, the scene has been completely destroyed. Wait for someone to clean it up." At the scene, I'm looking carefully to see if there are any clues, and some people are also going to the east side hall of Mingcui Palace."

Yun Shang looked at the situation, then turned around to Qin Yi and Qian Zhuo and said, "When it's time for us to show up, the internal guard will come to find us, don't worry, go back to the palace first."

Qianzhuo bit her lip, and followed Yunshang back to Zhaoxia Hall. As soon as he entered the palace, Qianzhuo suddenly fell to his knees, his face was a little pale: "It's all because the servants are too impulsive and caused trouble for the princess."

Yun Chang glanced at Qian Zhuo lightly, and sighed softly, "You are impulsive, you always have to suffer some losses before you know how to repent, forget it, let this be a lesson, remember in the future, you must think twice before doing something. "

Qian Jue bit her lip in response.

Qin Yicai said softly: "This servant feels that this matter is a bit strange. Caiyi returned yesterday that she has brought Liu Changyi back to Mingcui Palace and placed him there, waiting for Manager Liu to deal with it. Caiyi Since I said that, I must have sent someone to watch, how could it be..."

Yun Shang was silent for a moment, then raised her head and said to Qin Yi, "Where is Caiyi?"

Qin Yi went out, and after a while, brought Caiyi back, Caiyi saluted, and Yunshang said: "You must have heard about Liu Changyi's drowning and death, it just happened to me yesterday There were some conflicts, and today they are gone, I am afraid that many people will suspect me. I asked you to come because I wanted to ask you, you said yesterday that Liu Changyi was brought to Mingcui Palace and placed?"

Caiyi understood what Yunshang wanted to ask as soon as she heard it, and quickly responded: "Yes, this servant brought Liu Changyi back to the east side hall of Mingcui Palace yesterday, and made a special trip to let people stare at her. You are not allowed to go out until His Majesty gives the order."\u003c
