Chapter 190 The Return Of The Nightmare (Part One)


    Marry Prince Jing.


    For the rest of the day, Yun Shang felt upset whenever she thought of the suggestion.


    Marrying somebody was thest thing Yun Shang had designed for her new life. After being reborn,


    she wished to enact her revenge and revive the connection between her and her parents. She had


    even wished to make new acquaintances with real friends who sharedmon goals with her.


    Her marriage with Mo Jingran in herst life was so heart-breaking that she was scared of thinking


    about marriage. She didn''t have the courage to marry somebody. She was afraid of falling in love. She


    was even fearful that she would be hurt and despised again by her husband whom she would love with


    her heart and soul.


    However, Prince Jing had agreed to hand over his half of the Hufu to the Emperor on their wedding


    day. In that case, she could not turn down the marriage. At least, with the whole Hufu in hand, the

    Emperor would feel more secure.


    Yun Shang was aware that the Emperor could not afford to annoy Prince Jing. His Majesty was the


    only one who was fully aware of the extent of Prince Jing''s influence. If His Majesty hastily took any


    action to suppress Prince Jing''s forces in court, both sides would probably suffer tremendous losses,


    even though the Prince was not powerful enough to defeat the Emperor. Yun Shang was unwilling to


    see the two men at war, no matter what the consequence.


    "Your Highness, you are back! Did you get any information about Prince Jing?" Yun Shang stepped into


    the room in low spirits. The Princess''s countenance startled Qin Yi. So, she inquired as soon as she


    saw Yun Shang.


    Yun Shang stared nkly at Qin Yi for a moment. As Prince Jing was already under the Emperor''s


    control, there was no need for the Emperor to kill him. With this in mind, Yun Shang nodded at Qin Yi,


    "Yes. Prince Jing is safe for now."


    She spoke while walking toward the inner Hall. Then Yun Shang sat on her bench. She seemed lost in


    her thoughts. As Yun Shang sat there, she happened to see a teacup on the table. A plum flower in full


    blossom had been painted on the teacup.


    Qin Yi watched Yun Shang as the Princess walked into the inner Hall. She could not help but feel


    surprised at the Princess''s mncholy. As Prince Jing was safe now, why did the Princess still look so


    worried?


    However, Yun Shang didn''t pay attention to Qin Yi''s curiosity. She just sat on her bench and stared at


    the teacup. It wasn''t until some timeter that Yun Shang lifted her eyes to look at Qin Yi, "Go and ask


    the cooks to prepare an borate meal. Prince Jing will be dinning with us tonight."


    Qin Yi nodded. Before withdrawing, she cast another look at Yun Shang. She could not help but feel


    concerned. Qin Yi felt protective of the Princess and was driven to inquire about her worries. But she


    finally subdued the impulse to ask.


    Yun Shangy on the bench, and then, somehow, she fell asleep.


    In her dream, she seemed to be reliving the painful incidents of her previous life. What an unforgettable


    life it was! Yun Shang still remembered that horrible morning. She hadn''t been able to sleep well ever


    since Huan''er had fallen ill. On that particr morning, Yun Shang was happy to learn from the


    physician that Huan''er was recovering. She found that Huan''er had slept much better than before,


    though his face still looked pale. Looking at her son''s peaceful face as he slept, although in a dream,


    Yun Shang could not help but let out a sigh of relief. She remembered how many times she had wished


    that Huan''er could rally himself to recover from his illness! She knew that if he ovees the most


    challenging obstacle in his life, nothing terrible could happen to him in the future, and that he would


    certainly grow into a healthy young man.


    Yun Shang had felt relieved by the good news. Her worry finally gave way to exhaustion. She lifted her


    eyes to look at the maid standing by her side, "Where is Lian Xin? Why does it take her so long to


    prepare the medicine?"


    Lian Xin had been the Princess''s maid since Yun Shang had been a little girl. Yun Shang was so tired


    that she needed to rest. But someone had to attend to Huan''er while Yun Shang rested. As Lian Xin


    was her most trusted maid, she needed Lian Xin to take care of Huan''er in her absence.


    The maid peeped into the yard, and said calmly, "It is raining outside. Lian Xin didn''t take an umbre


    with her. She must have stopped somewhere to shelter herself from the rain."


    Though a little surprised at the maid''s exnation, Yun Shang still nodded. After dismissing all the


    maids, Yun Shang returned to Huan''er''s room, and napped by his bed.


    When Yun Shang woke, she heard some maids talking outside the chamber. As she had perspired in


    her nap, she was in need of water to clean her face. But Yun Shang felt a sharp pain in her throat when


    she opened her mouth to call the maid. She must have caught a cold when she had fallen asleep. Yun


    Shang grew angry at herself. How could she fall ill before Huan''er recovered? Painfully, Yun Shang


    made her way to the doorway. She intended to call the maids to serve her and to bring some medicine


    for her.


    However, as soon as Yun Shang neared the doorway she heard a maid speak in an ironic tone, "What


    a failure Princess Yun Shang is. Even her closest maid has betrayed her. I went to the Emperor''s Son-


    in-Law''s chamber and saw Lian Xin was waiting on Princess Hua Jing. When the Emperor''s Son-in-


    Law learned that Princess Hua Jing likes to eat lotus seed, he went to theke and picked many lotus


    seeds for Princess Hua Jing. Even though it is difficult to peel lotus seeds, the Emperor''s Son-in-Law


    patiently peeled each one and personally fed them to Princess Hua Jing."


    Yun Shang was familiar with the maid''s voice. She recognized the maid to be Wu Yi, a secondary maid


    who had been sent by Jingran to serve her.


    "Princess Hua Jing is a widow. How could she have charmed the Emperor''s Son-in-Law so much that


    he has be this obsessed with her? It seems as though the Emperor''s Son-in-Law cannot survive a


    single minute without Princess Hua Jing by his side." Yun Shang did not recognize the second voice.


    This maid was a stranger to her. It must be a maid from another Pce who hade to visit Wu Yi.


    Wu Yiughed after hearing those words. Then she said with a touch of shyness, "Do you know how


    sexy Princess Hua Jing is when she is in bed with the Emperor''s Son-in-Law? Several days ago,


    Princess Yun Shang sent me to find the Emperor''s Son-in-Law. When I approached the Emperor''s


    Son-in-Law''s study, I happened to hear Princess Hua Jing''s moans. It was so teasing that even I, as a


    woman, could not help but feel a sexual impulse coursing through my body. Wow..."


    "Is Princess Hua Jing indeed so alluring?"


    "Of course she is. Besides, Princess Hua Jing was born by the Empress, the legal wife of His Majesty.


    And Princess Hua Jing is also the Princess Royal of the State of Ning. In spite of her pitiful fame as a


    widow, she has kept many gigolos. Owing to her important position in the court, many people wish to


    lick her shoes. s, Princess Yun Shang is useless. Though brought up by the Empress, Princess Yun


    Shang is of humble status. Her mother is a deserteddy who has been banished to the Cold Pce


    by His Majesty. It is said that even the jewelry and ornaments that Princess Hua Jing has awarded to


    her maids are much better than those used by Princess Yun Shang." Wu Yi let out a cold "hum". There


    was a touch of agitation in her voice. She desperately wished to be Princess Hua Jing''s maid!
