Chapter 499 A Friend Came From Afar (Part Two)


    As Wang Jinyan and Wang Jinhuan arrived, Yun Shang was very happy to see two familiar faces in this


    almost strange ce of the state of Xia. So she stayed at the Inn and chatted with Wang Jinyan for a


    whole night. The next morning, she put on the mask and prepared to go back to Li mansion.


    "Now that we are in the state of Xia, we can make a good show of our talents by taking advantage of


    this. I have also climbed a decent position in the state of Ning because of my father. So I would like to


    go to the imperial pce as the envoy of the state of Ning and question Xia Huanyu why the princess


    of the state of Ning died just in three months after she arrived in the state of Xia. " Before leaving,


    Wang Jinhuan said to Yun Shang.


    Yun Shang kept silent for a while. She didn''t think it would be of much use to her, but they people


    in the State of Xia had forgotten she had a special identity as well, along with Lady Rui. It would be nice


    if Wang Jinhuan could help them to remember that she was still a princess in the


    state of Ning better.


    "Well, that''s good. I have a token from my father. It will be more persuasive if you take it with you to the


    pce." After a pause, she continued, "when will you go? Take me with you. "


    Wang Jinhuan nodded. Yun Shang set a time before she left the inn.


    Yun Shang was talking with Wang Jinyan during the night. When she returned to Li mansion, she felt


    sleepy and was about to lie down for sleep when Qian Yin walked over. "I have got in touch with the


    butler. He told me that the dead body of the fake Lady Rui was suddenly missing during thest night of


    the funeral. The Butler reported to his majesty that his majesty ordered him to carry the empty coffin


    directly into the funeral, but he didn''t expect that something would happen at the funeral. What


    happened yesterday has already provoked much discussion among people. It''s said thatdy Rui died


    in a odd way and her corpse has changed. "


    "Corpse change?" Yun Shang sneered, "who would have thought that? Howzy the guards of Prince


    Rui''s mansion are? I can''t believe that the dead body would have been burgled so easily! "


    Qian Yin replied in a hurry, "It was not the Butler''s fault. All the servants are very busy with the funeral.


    The Butler knew that the corpse was a fake one, so he didn''t take it to heart. The night keeper was


    Yun Shang frowned slightly, but there was a deep doubt in her heart. "Who would steal a corpse? I


    wonder if the thief knows that the corpse is a fake one."


    Qian Yin was also confused. After a while, she said, "maybe theye here to take the body away to


    have a thorough investigation, just because they don''t know if the body is a real one or a fake one?"


    Resting in the bed, Yun Shang nodded with a gleam in her eyes, "that''s possible." She paused and


    continued, "if that''s the case, they have to make an autopsy of the corpses. There are only a few


    coroners here. Ask the secret guards to keep an eye on them."


    Qian Yin replied yes. She shot a nce at Yun Shang and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, you


    need a rest. Let me serve you."


    Yun Shang was taken by surprise. After a short silence, she said, "Qian Yin, you don''t have to do that.


    No matter what happens, you are my best helper. You served me just to deceive the public. You are


    more talented than just being a maid of mine. Ning Qian is busy with many things in the pce now. I


    was thinking about sending you out with an excuse when I returned to the Prince Rui''s mansion and


    have you in charge of our shops in the Jin City. "


    Qian Yin bit her lips. Knowing that Yun Shang said that not tofort her, her eyes were also teary.


    She nodded her head and said, "OK, I see."


    Wang Jinhuan decided to go to the pce the next day morning. Yun Shang had a good rest the whole


    day. Early in the morning, she left the house secretly from the back door of the Li mansion with some


    servants and went to the inn. She changed her appearance in the inn and entered the pce with


    Wang Jinhuan.


    In order not to make Yun Shang seem too abrupt, Wang Jinhuan brought another three people with him


    as well. When entering the pce, he only said they were the ministers of the state of Ning. He also

    handed a token to Xia Huanyu for request.


    The eunuchs checked every one of them to see if they had any sharp weapons. After checking, Wang


    Jinhuan stood at the gate of the pce with four people, waiting for the summon. It was the hour in the


    early morning of the state of Xia. About five minutester, Yun Shang saw Liu Wenaning down


    from a long staircase in front of the Taiji Pce and slowly walking to Wang Jinhuan. He looked at


    Wang Jinhuan in a red robe and he paused for a moment, and then asked hesitantly, "is this Lord


    Wang from the state of Ning?"


    Yun Shang couldn''t help but curl her lips into a smile. She had a feeling that he must thought that


    Wang Jinhuan didn''t look like an officer.


    Wang Jinhuan, however, was quite used to the way other people looked at him. He raised his


    eyebrows, "yes, I am."


    Liu Wenan immediately said, "Lord Wang, please follow me..."
