Chapter 246 The Banquet (Part One)


    Qi Lang was confused. After a moment''s silence, he said: "ording to thew of the State of Ning, I


    will punish him fifty rods and give the injured man a certain amount of money."


    A faint smile appeared on Yun Shang''s face when she heard his words and looked at Qi Yuzhi. She


    turned to look at the trembling butler before she lowered her head and asked, "Oh? ording to my


    secret guard, Mister Qi hurt Mister Li in the west of the city at noon. What should we do with him,


    General Qi?"


    Upon hearing that, Qi Lang trembled with his hands clenched into fists. A touch of cruelty painted


    across his face. However, Yun Shang didn''t seem to see it. She kept smiling and turned to the fish in


    the pond. "It''s a tradition. Prince Jing and I also will be punished if we do something wrong. Prince Jing


    often mentioned about you, General. He said the General has a good reputation here. The reward and


    punishment are distinct. As we entered the KY City today, I saw people admire you. I guess you won''t


    let us down, will you? "


    No one answered for a long time, but Yun Shang didn''t hurry and sat still.


    "Of course. Whether thew is disciplined or not, and whether the people are decent or not, I will follow


    thew." Qi Lang said in forbearance.


    As soon as the words were spoken, Yun Shang heard Qi Yuzhi call out to his father from his gritted


    teeth, "father."


    Qi Lang red fiercely at Qi Yuzhi and knelt down respectfully with a pale face.


    Yun Shang turned around and nced at the veins on his forehead. She wanted tough, but she


    managed to force a smile. "General Qi, just as his highness said, there is a clear distinction between


    rewards and punishments. In that case, I won''t dy General Qi''s work. It seems that the Li family are


    waiting for General Qi in the front hall. " As she spoke, Yun Shang nced at the butler. He was


    obviously shocked. Then Yun Shang stood up and went back to the Chrysanthemum Yard with Qian


    Yin''s support.


    "Your highness, why did you demand General Qi to hit his son so hard? Will General Qi betray you


    because of this? Now we still live in General Qi''s Mansion, what if we provoke the people of the Qi


    family and they take action against us? As the saying goes, a strong dragon is difficult to deal with a


    local viin." Qian Yin couldn''t help but worry when she recalled the looks of General Qi and Mister Qi.


    Yun Shang looked calm and she shook her head with a slight smile. "Since I have asked for an imperial


    edict ande to the KY City, I can''t pretend to be weak and harmless. The gentler I am, the less


    respect I get from him. I''m afraid that he won''t take me seriously when the army of the State of Xia


    She heaved a sigh and said, "I did this to let Qi Lang know that I''m not as weak as the rumor said.


    Even if I was under his eyes, I still have my way to monitor everything in this city. In this way, he will


    definitely be somewhat afraid of me. With my identity, he may not care that I am a princess, but that I


    have Prince Jing behind me. In this case, even if he wants to y a show, he has to try his best to


    make it real. He doesn''t want me to find his fault, and at that time, he will definitely let me do the duty of


    inspector. He will just try to make things difficult for me. All I need to do is to avoid the trap he set, and I


    will really reach the battlefield... "


    Looking at the lines on the table, Yun Shang was in a trance. Who said the rough men who only knew


    about war didn''t know how to detox? They were as scheming as those shrewish women in the Imperial


    City who fell into their schemes.


    Yun Shang was a little tired after all the mess. Qi Lang was a typical killer. He was surrounded by an


    intense murderous will, and it was a tough fight for her.


    Yun Shangy on the bed, and intended to have a rest. But to her surprise, when she woke up again, it


    was already the next morning. Yun Shang felt a headache when she woke up. She might have caught


    a cold.


    She frowned. Since she started to learn martial arts, her bones had be much better, and she


    seldom got sick. However, once she got ill, she felt very ufortable.


    She asked Qian Yin toe in and look after her. Qian Yin sensed that something was wrong with Yun

    Shang''s voice, so she sent her hidden guard to bring in a physician. Yun Shang indeed caught a cold.


    The physician prescribed a prescription, and Yun Shang told the servants to bring the medicine. Yun


    Shang checked the medicine, and then asked Qian Yin to cook it herself.


    She felt better after taking the medicine, but she still felt a little weak, so shey on the couch and read


    a book.


    "Your Highness, I heard General Qi really had someone beat him fifty timesst night. When you were


    asleep, I paid a special visit. Heehee hee, the whole General Qi''s Mansion could hear his scream."


    Qian Yin grinned gloatingly for a while before she continued, "I heard that the fifthdy summoned all


    the doctors of the city to this mansion yesterday and cried a lot. But it seemed that she waster


    scolded by General Qi."


    Yun Shang smiled. Qi Yuzhi''s mother was the fifthdy of the Qi family. It was said that she had been


    the daughter of the richest man in the KY City. His mother had been favored in the mansion. Perhaps it


    was because she had the richest man of the KY City behind her, she had been so arrogant and


    domineering.


    "I''m not afraid of Qi Lang and Qi Yuzhi, but for this fifithdy, you have to have someone keep an eye


    on her. She is by no means simple." Yun Shang rubbed her temples. She said in a hoarse voice. She


    knew very well that women in the mansion were very good at doing secret things, so she didn''t


    underestimate them.


    Qian Yin answered with a smile, "Your Highness, yesterday someone called me. It was not until then


    that I got to know the boss of the imperial household has opened a shop in this remote city. He is really


    something. By the way, your highness, the boss has a letter for you. He asked me to give it to you. "


    Then Qian Yin took out a piece of parchment from her inner packet and handed it to Yun Shang.


    Yun Shang took it over and looked at it carefully. Then she smiled happily. "You are right. Ning Qian is


    really something. She stayed in the Imperial City of the State of Xia no more than six or seven days,


    but the princess had already had an eye on her and brought her to the Princess Pce."


    Qian Yin was surprised, "Your Highness? When did the boss be a bisexual? Does the Princess


    like women? Or does she want to choose a concubine for Emperor''s Son-inw?"


    Yun Shang couldn''t helpughing. She tapped Qian Yin on the head with the parchment, "what are you


    thinking about? The princess was the sister of the Emperor of the State of Xia. She wanted to present a


    beauty to the Emperor. Ning Qian was ady of outstanding appearance and intelligence, so the


    princess chose her. Maybe Ning Qian will be one of thedies of the State of Xia in a few


    days."
