As soon as Wang Jinhuan and the others left, Yun Chang was also free, only to remember that Princess Tai'an was still in the private prison in the mansion. Because of Xia Huanyu and Empress Hua's sudden visit yesterday, she almost forgot about this incident.

Waiting for Qin Yi to return to the house, Yun Shang ordered Qin Yi to ask the secret guard to bring Princess Tai'an up.

I don't know what kind of torture she has suffered in the private prison these two days, but the torture tools of the secret guards have always been endless, and the situation of Princess Tai'an can tell whether it is good or bad. Princess Tai'an was no longer as pampered as she was the day before yesterday. She seemed to be several years old, her complexion was gray, her eyes were black and blue, and her whole body was trembling slightly.

As soon as the hidden guard let go of her, she fell limply to the ground as if she had lost all her bones. When she looked up and saw Yun Shang, she seemed to be frightened, and she took a few steps back: "Don't come here, don't come here, Don't use torture anymore, I will recruit all I recruit."

Yun Shang slowly hooked the corners of her mouth, and said softly: "Princess Tai'an designed to frame me this time, who ordered it?"

"Concubine Shen Shu, Concubine Shen Shu..." Princess Tai'an hurriedly said, curling up into a ball, "Concubine Shen Shu said that no matter how the country of Xia is changed, at least the descendants of our Xia family should inherit that position, not a wild man of unknown origin. He also said that His Highness the Crown Prince was murdered by Prince Rui, and Prince Rui wanted to harm the Seventh Prince, and asked me if I had to choose someone between the Seventh Prince and Prince Rui, who would I choose. Naturally, I would choose the Seventh Prince , me and the prince, we are in love with each other."

Even though she knew that Princess Tai'an was talking about the former prince, Yun Shang couldn't help but frowned.

Princess Tai'an seemed to be in a very disordered state of mind, and she babbled again: "Before she asked me to play more with the little princesses in the palace, and then asked Princess Qianling to put poison into your food, who would have thought that Qianling The princess disappeared. I was listening to a play in the theater that day, and she sent someone to come to me and said that our chance has come."

Yun Shang had heard about Princess Tai'an's poisoning before, and after the Queen Mother left, her temperament changed a lot. She also often played with the little princess and princes, but she never thought that she would have such an idea.

As for the day she mentioned, it must have been the day Yun Shang said she would spend the night in Xiangzhu Hall.

In this way, Concubine Shen Shu knew the authenticity in the palace long ago, so she asked the nephew in the Xiangzhu Palace to bring Yunshang to the bedroom where the accident happened.

"The authenticity, did Concubine Shen Shu tell you, or did you know it before?" Yun Chang frowned and asked.

Princess Tai'an shrank back, as if she was extremely afraid of her, and answered after a while: "It's Concubine Shen Shu, Concubine Shen Shu told me that she was the imperial brother's secret guard before, and she often entered and left the palace through the tunnels in the palace. Brother Huang is very clear about the tunnels in the palace when he is doing business, so I went for a walk with her, and sure enough, the tunnels lead to the palace."

"Why did she ask you to take me into the ice cellar?" Yun Shang's eyes turned cold, and she fixed her gaze on Tai'an.

Hearing this, Tai'an laughed a little strangely: "It wasn't she who asked me to bring you into the ice cellar, but I brought you by myself. I thought, since Prince Rui harmed the crown prince, he harmed me. After losing a loved one, I naturally want to let him taste what it feels like to lose a loved one."

"That authentic way, even Concubine Shen Shu didn't know, it was used when I was with the crown prince, when we had a tryst, I quietly brought you into the ice cellar, I wanted to kill you directly, but when I heard footsteps, I didn't have time to kill you, so I threw you down in a hurry and hid aside. I didn't expect Liu Yinfeng to follow me, but I was afraid that he would rescue you, so I simply sent the authentic The secret door was blocked, and both of you were locked inside."

As Tai'an said, he suddenly raised his head and stared at Yunshang, with a bit of malice in his eyes: "After I finished these things, I was afraid that Concubine Shen Shu or the Seventh Prince would come to ask me about my crimes, Concubine Shen Shu ordered me to You locked it up, I thought you were dead at that time, so I quickly packed up my things and fled outside the city. In the end, I was arrested and returned..."

Tai'an lowered his head and smiled, and then continued: "Who knew that you were so lucky, you were found so quickly, you were frozen in the ice cellar for so long, there was no accident, and you even gave birth to your son smoothly .”

Yun Shang laughed coldly when she heard the words, "You keep saying that you like the former prince Xia Houyan, but you don't know that the real murderer who killed Xia Houyan was the Seventh Prince. It's really, extremely ignorant."

Tai'an shrank back again, "You are talking nonsense. When the crown prince was alive, he cared a lot for the seventh prince, and the seventh prince also respected the prince very much."

"I, Ning Yunshang, have no other advantages, but I still dare to admit what I have done. Besides, you have fallen into my hands now, so why should I lie to you." Yunshang sneered, Another look at Tai'an.

"However, whether you believe it or not is of little use to me. I have never been soft-hearted to those who try their best to move me, and this time, you almost caused me to lose the child in my womb. , no matter what, I will be liquidated."

Yun Shang said, and looked at Tai'an with pity: "Your former highness the prince was in the prison of Ningguo, was plotted by the Seventh Prince and Cangjue Qingsu, confused by the incense of the Buddha, and burned to death. I heard that if two lovers die in the same way, they can still meet in the ground. Since you miss him so much, why don't I make it possible for you to go on and reunite with him."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Tai'an's reaction, he raised his eyes and raised his voice to order: "Come on, it's a hot day, the weather is dry, and the Princess Tai'an's mansion is on fire. Why don't you hurry up and put out the fire?"

The dark guard quickly responded, and dragged the pale Princess Tai'an out of the room. Only this time, Princess Tai'an didn't make any noise anymore, and was a little unusually quiet.

When Luo Qingyan returned home, Yunshang was taking a nap with Bao'er in his arms, but Bao'er was well-behaved, she had already woken up, but there was no noise, she just bit her finger silently. Seeing Luo Qingyan staring at him, he smiled and clapped his hands, looking very happy. Seeing Luo Qingyan still looking at him again, he simply stretched out his hand, as if asking for a hug.

Luo Qingyan stared fixedly for a long time, then slowly moved away, with a bit of coldness in his eyes.

Bao'er pursed her mouth when she saw this, as if she was about to cry. Luo Qingyan pretended not to see it, turned around and left the room... Then, Bao'er's cry came from the room. Luo lightly paused his footsteps, but still didn't look back.

When it was time for dinner, a maid came to invite her. Luo Qingyan returned Shi Shiran to Nanyuan. Seeing that Yunshang had already sat at the table, but Baoer and Nanny were not there, Luo Qingyan's expression calmed down a little. Sat down at the table.

Yun Chang didn't know what happened in the afternoon, so she chatted with Luo Qingyan while the maid was setting the dishes, "Did Empress Hua encounter any obstacles when she returned to the palace?"

Luo Qingyan shook his head, with a bit of pondering in his eyes: "This time, Your Majesty seems to have made up his mind to restore Empress Hua's position. When I return to the palace today, Your Majesty did not let Empress Hua go back first." The harem, instead, took Empress Hua directly to the Tai Chi Hall."

There was an unconcealable astonishment on Yun Chang's face. The Tai Chi Hall was the place where the courtiers went to court early. Xia Huanyu's behavior was probably trying to silence the people in the court first. It's just that Yun Chang doesn't need to guess, she knows how wonderful the courtier's face will be when she sees Empress Hua and Xia Huanyu going to court together.

"And in our mansion, His Majesty asked someone to change Empress Hua into a phoenix crown and phoenix robe. Today, when Your Majesty brought Empress Hua into the Tai Chi Hall, the courtiers didn't know how to salute Empress Hua." Luo Qing said He narrowed his eyes, with a hint of subtlety in his eyes, "It's just that His Majesty should have made arrangements long ago. Before the ministers got up after saluting, His Majesty first commended Duke Hua for his deeds against the enemy this time, and rewarded him with a lot of things. , and then directly issued the post-sealing decree."

Hearing what Luo Qingyan said, Yun Shang regretted that she hadn't been there, it was a rare scene in a hundred years.

"No one stood up to object?" Yun Chang was a little puzzled.

"Objection?" Luo Qingyan curled his lips when he heard the words, "The old officials in the court must be very clear about how much Empress Hua was favored back then. Standing up to oppose is tantamount to saving Your Majesty's face. Moreover, I was just crowned prince, and Duke Hua was rewarded a moment ago. Who dares to stand up and make irresponsible remarks at this juncture. Even if I want to say something, I can only come down and submit a report quietly, but the imperial decree has already passed. Your Majesty, if you want your majesty to take back your words, it will be very difficult for you to take back your words."

When Yun Shang heard the words, she had to sigh: "Ginger is still old and hot."

She had made so many preparations for Empress Hua's return before, but she couldn't match Xia Huanyu's thunderous tactics, so she confirmed the title of Empress Hua with such lightning speed.

The imperial decree of the empress dowager, although the empress dowager ceremony has not yet been put on the agenda, but the prince's mansion is already full of people.

Yun Chang was still in confinement, so she refused them all, but there were also many people who left the gift box at the door and left in a hurry. Get up, tidy up one by one, let Luo Qingyan find an opportunity directly, and donate to the national treasury.

In the past few days, Jincheng was very peaceful, except for the sudden fire at Princess Tai'an's mansion that day, Princess Tai'an died in the crowd. It's just that Princess Tai'an has always been domineering, and this matter gradually calmed down after a few days of gossip in Jincheng.

It's just that the calm didn't last for a few days before something happened.

A plague broke out outside Jincheng, and the plague spread into Jincheng. Qin Tianjian asserted that this vision was caused by a disaster star falling on Xia Kingdom, and the disaster star moved into Jincheng, causing disasters. All the signs pointed to Empress Hua who had just returned to the palace. \u003c
