Chapter 653 Special Rouge


    Qianshui Pavilion was open at the moment, but there weren''t many guests in the shop. Qian Shui was


    taking care of the shop herself and walked out as soon as she saw Yun Shang''s carriage. "Your


    Highness..."


    Qian Zhuo drew aside the curtain and got off the carriage with Qin Yi. Then she helped Yun Shang get


    off. Yun Shang smiled gently, "I was just thinking about whether you had closed the shop in the new


    year. Luckily, you didn''t."


    Qian Shui smiled, "Your Highness, what a coincidence. We had closed the shop for several days and


    just opened it today."


    Yun Shang nodded slightly and walked into the shop. "I remember there is a kind of rouge called


    butterflies in love with flowers. Do you have it now?"


    "Butterflies in love with flowers?" Hearing this, Qian Shui paused for a while and quickly caught up with


    them. When she entered the shop with them, she said with a smile: "I have, but only one box."


    "That''s enough. One box is enough. Go get it for me." Yun Shang said gently, and then went to the


    second floor with Qian Zhuo and Qin Yi. Walking into a room on the second floor, she walked to the


    window, opened the window a little bit and looked down. The coachman was standing next to the


    carriage and looking around, as if on high alert.


    Yun Shang closed the window before she sat down and said to Qin Yi, "I ordered Qian Shui to bring the


    rouge here. It doesn''t have strong fragrance, but it is specially made by the secret guards. The secret


    guards can track down people with the scent. I paid attention to the coachman just now. He was


    breathing lightly, and we didn''t talk much, but he should hear us clearly. He must be a kung fu master.


    He definitely couldn''t be just some ordinary servant. "


    Qin Yi nodded. Yun Shang continued, "It''s not surprising that the prince has his own shadow guards or


    bodyguards around him, but we don''t know how many he has as he is always hiding so well. This is an


    opportunity."


    "Do you want to use this coachman to get rid of all the cultivators around the seventh prince?" When


    Qian Zhuo understood what Yun Shang meant, her eyes twinkled with excitement.


    "It would be great if we can. But the seventh prince has always been very cautious, and I''m afraid it''s


    not easy. But it doesn''t matter. At least, we can know where these people are hiding. The fragrance can


    onlyst for three days, and our time is limited. " Yun Shang smiled and turned to Qin Yi, "Qin Yi, take


    the box of rouge and make a false slip when you get on the carriage, sprinkling the rouge on that man."


    Qian Zhuo said in a hurry, "Your highness, Qin Yi is not good at Kung Fu. What if the man dodges? Let


    me do it."


    "I''m afraid the coachman must be better than you in Kung Fu and he must have known that you know


    some Kung Fu. It would be suspicious if you fall down so easily. Qin Yi knows nothing about Kung Fu.


    That''s why I ask her to do it." Yun Shang exined indifferently.


    The door was pushed open. Qian Shui walked in with an exquisite carved box, smiling, "This is the only


    one I have. It''s really troublesome to make it." Then she walked to Yun Shang, opened the box, and


    there was light red rouge powder in it.


    Yun Shang leaned over and sniffed. Then she nodded, "Wonderful. The smell is light, but elegant. It will


    be useful if it can be used. Ask more people to make it. If you need anything, just let me know. I''ll send


    people to find it. "


    Qian Shui replied: "Your Highness, some material is really hard to find. I''ll make a list and send it to you


    Yun Shang nodded slightly and stood up, "Let''s go. It''s time to go back."


    The three of them then went downstairs and went out of the Qian Shui Pavilion. Qian Shui opened the


    curtain and got Yun Shang onto the carriage. Qin Yi followed them. But as soon as she stepped on a


    wood outside the carriage, she slipped. Qin Yi hurriedly grabbed the coachman by the side, and the


    rouge box in her hand was knocked open and fell on the carriage driver''s shoulder.


    "What''s wrong?" Yun Shang finally turned around when she heard the noise. Qin Yi had almost


    steadied herself, but she looked at the rouge in her hand with a frown and a bit frightened.


    Qian Zhuo said, "Your highness, it was an ident that Qin Yi slipped and almost fell when she got on


    the carriage."


    Qin Yi quickly knelt down at the edge of the carriage, "Please forgive me, your highness. I''ve knocked


    the rouge over. "


    Yun Shang frowned and sighed, "Why are you so careless?" After a moment of silence, she softened


    her voice and said, "The shopkeeper said that this box is the only one for the time being. Well, go back


    to the shop and tell her to make another box. When it''s done, send it to our mansion."


    Qin Yi nodded, and got off the carriage in a hurry. She went back to the shop to have a detailed


    ount before she got back to the carriage.


    Yun Shang nced at Qin Yi''s hands and passed her a handkerchief. "Clean your hands carefully."


    Qin Yi nodded, but she hurriedly said, "I have a handkerchief with me." Then she took out the


    handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped her hands carefully.


    Until they arrived at the mansion, the coachman didn''t make any noise. Yun Shang was surer that he


    was sent here by the seventh prince to find out the truth.


    After entering the mansion, Yun Shang ordered Qian Zhuo, "Don''t send anyone to follow him for the


    moment, lest we alert the enemy. He has the smell of the rouge, which is not hard to find.


    Qian Yin said yes. Then Yun Shang saw the butlering towards her, and she asked, "Has his


    highnesse back?"


    The butler shook his head. "I was just about to tell your highness about it. Just now, his highness sent a


    message, saying that when he was in the general''s house, he received an imperial edict which ordered


    him to go to the seventh prince''s mansion. So he will probably return hometer."


    "His majesty asked his highness to the seventh prince''s mansion?" Yun Shang kept silent for a while.


    She guessed that his majesty suspected that his highness had something to do with the fire thing. It''s


    not a bad thing that his highness went there. The seventh prince couldn''t talk nonsense with his


    presence. And Yun Shang could know how the thing was going when Luo Qingyan came back.


    Yun Shang nodded with a smile, "Okay, I see." Then she went back to the yard with Qin Yi and Qian


    Zhuo.


    When Yun Shang returned to the yard, she saw Qian Liu standing in the yard with a smile on her face.


    Yun Shang ran to her and asked, "Are you feeling better?"


    Qian Liu nodded slightly, "I''m fine now. Thank you very much, your highness." Then she turned to Qin


    Yi and said with a smile, "I heard that you came to see you some days ago. I haven''t had the chance to


    see you because of my poor health. Thank you for looking after her highness these days."


    Qin Yi smiled, "Are you Qian Liu?" Then she looked at Qian Liu from head to toe, and smilingly said,


    "We are all your highness'' maids. You don''t have to be so courteous."


    Qian Liu replied with a smile and turned to Yun Shang, "A maid from the imperial pce came to report


    that his majesty had seen the thing in pot of ck chrysanthemum yesterday. His majesty got angry


    and had sent someone to investigate it."


    Yun Shang nodded slightly and said with a smile, "They could only find out that Zhao Xianwu has


    something to do with it. We have to send someone to talk to his majesty about the close rtionship


    between the empress and Zhao Xianwu. But the person couldn''t be Ning Qian and Lin Youran. Ask


    Ning Qian to make the arrangement by herself."


    Qian Liu replied with a smile and continued, "The maid said that the Wanshou Festival ising soon


    and the emperor has ordered all the princes and princesses outside could return to the Jin City."


    "It was supposed to be so. The Wanshou Festival is a matter of great importance. Although some


    Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org.


    princes and princesses have been ordered to stay in their own fiefs, they are still his majesty''s children.


    His majesty wants to have the family reunion on this day." Yun Shang took off her cloak and handed it


    to Qian Zhuo. Qin Yi had poured water for her. She went to the bathroom to wash her hands before


    Qian Liu continued, "It doesn''t matter for them toe back except one prince..."


    Yun Shang pondered for a while before she stopped. "Prince Qi?"


    "Yes, the son of Lady Shu, Prince Qi." Qian Liu replied in a hurry.


    Yun Shang walked to the couch and sat down on it. She took up the cup and frowned, "Lady Shu is in


    the cold pce now. Do we need to worry about it?"


    Qin Yi smiled, "Before I came here, I''ve already known some things that have happened after your


    highness came to the State of Xia. As far as I''m concerned, Lady Shu is by no means simple. Don''t


    underestimate her. Even if she is in the cold pce now, as long as she is alive, there will be a chance


    to turn over."


    "You are right." Yun Shang thought for a while and said, "Someone went to the cold pce to visit Lady


    Shu, but we still haven''t found out who the person is until now. I''m afraid Lady Shu hasn''t given up.


    She''s just waiting for an opportunity. It''s indeed a good chance when Prince Qi to return to the pce


    for the Wanshou Festival."


    "Your highness, let''s find an opportunity to get rid of Lady Shu in case of any future worries, shall we?"


    Qian Zhuo asked.


    Yun Shang shook her head, "Let''s put aside the fact that our people didn''t haven''t got so many


    infulences in the pce that we can''t get rid of them so easily. Though Lady Shu has been put in the


    cold pce, the emperor sent many guards to protect her, which means his majesty still cares about


    her. If we do it so rashly, we might get into trouble. Just leave itter. I will consider how to deal with it. "


    Everyone responded. After taking a sip of tea, Yun Shang lied on the bench and closed her eyes for


    rest. She woke up after a while, washed her face and rinsed her mouth. Then she ordered the servants


    to prepare the dinner. However, before the dinner was ready, Luo Qingyan hade back.


    Yun Shang smiled and asked Qin Yi to prepare some water for Luo Qingyan to wash his hands. After


    Luo Qingyan finished, Yun Shang asked with a smile, "How is it going? I thought you woulde back


    a littlete. "


    Luo Qingyan poked at Yun Shang''s forehead and sighed, "Why didn''t you tell me about this? I was


    almost scared to death when I heard of it."
