Chapter 655 A Favorable Draw


    Hearing his words, Luo Qingyan meditated for a moment, then put down the window curtain and sat


    there gloomily. After a while, he said, "You suddenly said you would go out of the city to pray. Is it


    because you knew that the seventh prince had knelt down outside the Taiji hall the whole night and


    knew what his majesty was going to do, so you took me out of the city with you because you worried


    that I would be unhappy?"


    Yun Shang was surprised at Luo Qingyan''s sudden thought. After thinking for a while, Yun Shang said


    with a smile, "We can''t control everything. Sometimes we could only watch things happen. Instead of


    upsetting ourselves, we''d rather live our own lives."


    Hearing Yun Shang''s words, Luo Qingyan understood a bit. He forced a smile and said, "I just don''t


    understand why his majesty is so indulgent to him?"


    "I also don''t understand. But I believe that things always happen for a reason. We failed this time, but


    the emperor must have a grudge against the seventh prince. We should make adequate preparations


    before we carry out our next move. First, we need to find out the reason why his majesty allowed the


    seventh prince to be so arrogant. Then, we''ll find the right solution and try to do it in a short time." Yun


    Shang chuckled, "There are a lot of days ahead. And this time, I''ve learned a lot from it, at least..."


    Yun Shang thought about it for a while and said, "at least we can use this incident to provoke


    someone..."

    Hearing this, Luo Qingyan turned his head, frowned, and thought for a moment before saying, "You


    mean the empress?"


    Yun Shang smiled and nodded. "The seventh prince is the murderer of the crown prince. Now we are


    trying to tell the empress that the emperor himself asked to set him free. And for the matter happening


    now, his majesty must have ordered not to tell anyone about it. The empress may not know what


    happened yesterday in the seventh prince''s mansion, and why the seventh prince knelt down in front of


    the Taiji hall. If the empress knows about it one by one, I don''t know what she will think."


    Luo Qingyan frowned and remained silent for a long time.


    "I''m afraid the empress hated him most for losing her son in her middle age." Yun Shang smiled coldly.


    She had gone through the pain of losing her son in her previous life, so she knew how painful it was.


    She could shout and cry, but the empress could only bite her lips and swallow her blood. Even though


    she knows that her enemy was in front of her, she could only pretend to smile elegantly and


    "Okay, do as you said." Luo Qingyan sighed. He closed his eyes and leaned against the wall. After a


    long time, he smiled as if he wasughing at himself. "The hardest thing to guess is one''s heart."


    Yun Shang knew he was still angry, but she had tried her best to console him, and give him ideas. Yun


    Shang lowered her head and held Luo Qingyan''s hand tightly. She said with a smile, "Don''t be afraid.


    There''s a long way to go. No matter howcent the seventh prince is now, we''re the ones who


    Luo Qingyan raised his eyebrows and pulled Yun Shang into his arms. He kissed her on the cheek and


    nodded. "You are right. We will be the final winner."


    The temple was not very far. It only took them an hour. Qin Yi opened the door of the carriage. Then


    Luo Qingyan jumped off the carriage first and helped Yun Shang get off.


    The temple was located halfway up the mountain. Fortunately, there was no step. The carriage directly


    stopped at the gate of the temple. Yun Shang looked up at the door of the temple and smiled. Then she


    went into the temple with Luo Qingyan.


    Although it was the right time for Spring Festival, there were still many people seeking for new year''s


    gifts.


    Both Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang were pretty good-looking, and there were quite a few onlookers


    along the way. Fearing that Yun Shang might be hurt by the crowd, he immediately held her in arms


    and asked Qin Yi to find the abbot, and the abbot personally led them to a room on the mountain


    behind the temple.


    "Prince Rui, Lady Rui, please." The abbot pushed the door of the room open and led them in.


    After entering the room, Yun Shang folded her hands and made a Buddhist salute with a smile.


    "Amitabha, we nned toe here for a draw today, but we didn''t expect there would be so many


    people. His highness is so worried about my health that he bothers you."


    The master also returned a salute, "Your Highness, don''t be so polite."


    The wing room was very simple. There was a bed in the middle of the room, on which there was a big


    character "Buddha". There was a table, four chairs, a teapot with teacups, and a lot of bamboo sticks in


    a lot pot.


    Luo Qingyan helped Yun Shang to sit down beside the table, and then he sat down beside her. The


    abbot smiled, "There is a lot pot here, just take one stick from it."


    Yun Shang nodded slightly and directly took a stick from the lot pot and handed it to the abbot.


    The abbot took the stick and had a look, then he said with a smile, "Your Highness, you have a good


    luck. It''s the best one. There is a note on it, which says perfect and ride high. It means everything will


    going well. In the face of any emergency, you could get unexpected help. Some people would deal with


    it prudently. Even if it was difficult, you could finally achieve your goal."


    "Unexpected help..." Yun Shang raised her eyebrows and took the bamboo stick from the abbot with a


    smile. She looked at it carefully and said, "It''s really lucky. I don''t know who will give me the unexpected


    help."


    "Your Highness will know it when the one shows up." The abbot kept it in suspense.


    Yun Shang smiled, "Thank you, abbot."


    Luo Qingyan also suggested, "Thank you for your kind offer, master. We will walk around the mountain


    behind and then go down the mountain."


    Then he bowed to the abbot and left the room.


    Yun Shang was fiddling with the bamboo stick. She gently touched the words on the sticks, and then


    threw it away. She poured out all the bamboo sticks from the lot pot and looked at them one by one.


    "There are thirty-two sticks in the lot pot, twelve of which are the best ones, ten second best ones, five


    third best ones, but only five second worst ones, and there is no worst one..." Yun Shang shook her


    head with a smile and put all them back into the lot pot.


    "People just want some good signs. No one cares what other sticks are." "Don''t you want to have a


    walk? I didn''t expect there were so many people in the temple. Just now when I came here, I noticed


    that there were not many people in the back hill. We could walk around there."


    Yun Shang nodded and stood up. "Since we''ve already been here, let''s go have a look."


    All things had withered in the winter. There was nothing but a few plum trees in the withered season.


    Luo Qingyan walked with Yun Shang and felt a bit disappointed. When they were about to go down the


    mountain, they heard someone talking in the bamboo forest. There was a word that made Yun Shang


    and Luo Qingyan pause. Prince Rui.


    A young woman replied confidently, "Among all the young men in the court, Prince Rui is the only one


    that deserves me to marry. Wait and see. No matter who is the present wife of Prince Rui, I will get that


    position."
