Chapter 657 Fraternity
"Plead for him?" Luo Qingyan sneered and said nothing.
Yun Shang knew that he must be quite unhappy now. She said in a softer tone, "That''s right. Plead with
his majesty for him. Now we all know that his majesty is not going to do anything to him. Since you
have known this result, you''d better go to the Taiji hall to plead for the seventh prince, and in this way,
you might get a good reputation for caring your brother."
Although Luo Qingyan was a little unhappy, he was considering her advice. Hearing Yun Shang''s
words, he understood her n. He was silent for a moment, and then nodded. He stood up and sighed.
"Okay, I''ll go."
Yun Shang hurriedly stopped Luo Qingyan and smiled, "Don''t rush. It''s windy at night. Put on more
clothes... " Then Yun Shang turned around and asked Qin Yi to bring the warmest underwear and robe
to help Luo Qingyan put them on. She also took cotton trousers for Luo Qingyan to put on. "Since you
decide to do it, you should make it more real. Your knees won''t hurt with the thick trousers."
Seeing that Yun Shang busy with the preparations for him, Luo Qingyan was at a loss whether tough
or cry. "How could you ask your husband to kneel in front of the Taiji hall for a whole night..."
Yun Shang smiled and said, "You are good at Kung Fu. It''s no big deal to kneel for one night. Besides,
you could get some benefits in the future if you do it."
Luo Qingyan smiled, bent over and kissed Yun Shang''s forehead gently. He smiled and said, "Well, my
shang''er, you are always thinking for me. I will listen to you." Then he put on clothes as Yun Shang told.
Seeing that Yun Shang was about to fetch the thermos, Luo Qingyan hurriedly held Yun Shang''s hand
and said with a smile, "No need. How could I take a thermos with me to kneel on the ground with
seventh prince? It''s inappropriate."
Yun Shang thought for a while and realized that it was not a good idea, so she had to give up. She
quickly ordered Qian Liu to make a bowl of ginger soup. "It''s cold at night. There is no need to rush at
this moment. Drink it before you leave."
Luo Qingyan didn''t know whether to cry or tough. He stopped Yun Shang and said, "If I don''t be
quick, the pce gate will close."
Yun Shang then stopped and walk him out of the yard. She sighed gently, "What should I do? I''m a little
regretful."
Luo Qingyan smiled and touched Yun Shang''s head. "Only one night. As you said, people all think I am
cool and even indifferent. Sometimes, it''s not a good thing. Why don''t I go if I had such a chance? "
Yun Shang nodded and watched Luo Qingyan leave the yard. After a long time, she went back to her
room.
The moment Luo Qingyan left, Yun Shang appeared a little depressed. She walked back and forth in
the room for several times before she whispered, "No. Now that his highness is in the pce, I''ll let
Ning Qian or Lin Youran help."
The three maids were standing by. Qian Liu smiled at Yun Shang, "What do you want? I''ll ask someone
to inform them. "
Yun Shang thought for a while and murmured, "I can''t do it too obviously."
She walked back and forth in the hall for several times. Then she turned to Qian Liu, "Tell Ning Qian or
Lin Youran to go to the Taiji hall to deliver some soup to the emperor. They just need to tell his majesty
that they saw Prince Rui kneeling down with the seventh prince outside the hall and asked what did the
two princess do wrong."
Qian Liu curtsied to Yun Shang, and obeyed.
Yun Shang went back to her bed and lied down on it. She frowned and regretted letting Luo Qingyan
do it. He was the one who was suffering, but she was the one who was in a bad mood.
Qin Yi smiled and asked the maids to prepare the hot water. She went to the couch and squatted. "Your
Highness, you did a good job. Thest thing the emperor wants is that his children fight against each
other for his throne. His majesty already has a grudge against the seventh prince for the matter. If his
highness did something like that, it would show that he is a noble and righteous man."
Yun Shang nodded gently. Although she knew that, she still couldn''t help worrying about him. It was in
severe winter and it was cold outside. Although he was skillful in Kung Fu, he wouldn''t be able to
endure the coldness.
As the maid brought a basin of hot water, Yun Shang wash her face and rinse her mouth. Yun Shang
wanted to read a book for a while, but madam Qi, who came in and took care of things, saw it and
persuaded her hurriedly, "It''s dark at night. You''d better not read. It''s not good for the baby."
Hearing her words, Yun Shang had to put the book down. There was nothing to do except reading. So
she rested early.
The next day, Yun Shang woke up very early, even before the sun rose. Since she had woken up, Yun
Shang didn''t want to stay on the bed. She called several maids in to dress and make up.
They were surprised, "Your Highness, you wake up so early today." Qian Zhuo said with a smile.
Qin Yi also smiled faintly and said, "Someone got up even earlier than her highness, the seventh
princess. She came here an hour ago. I have persuaded her that you won''t be able to get up until a
certain time. But she insisted on waiting for you to get up."
Yun Shang was surprised. She looked at Qin Yi with a frown and said, "is Yu Shang here?"
Qin Yi nodded, "I''m afraid it''s about the seventh prince."
"Yes." Yun Shang nodded, went to the bathroom and washed her face. After that, she walked out of the
bathroom, and ordered quietly, "Lead the seventh prince here. She''s not an outsider. It''s okay."
Qian Zhuo responded and left the room.
Qin Yi helped Yun Shang put on a light pink long dress. She asked Yun Shang to sit down in front of
the bronze mirror. "I''ll make you a simple but elegant bun."
Yun Shang nodded. Qin Yi quickly took theb, andbed Yun Shang''s hair before she coiled it.
Before she finished, Hua Yutong followed Qian Zhuo into the room.
Yun Shang saw from the bronze mirror that Hua Yutong''s face was pale and her eyes were bluish. It
seemed that she hadn''t slept well for a long time. Yun Shang was astonished.
"What''s wrong with you? You look so cheerless. " Yun Shang asked softly.
After being silent for a long time, Hua Yutong sighed and said, "The seventh prince went into the
pce the day before yesterday, and he hasn''te back yet. I noticed that the emperor was angry
and pulled a long face when asking him to leave. I''m so worried about him. But I couldn''t inquire about
the news in the imperial pce. So I have been worried for him for two whole days. His highness still
hasn''te back when I got up this morning. I had no choice but toe her and ask Prince Rui."
Yun Shang was stunned. She hadn''t thought of that. She could get some information from the pce.
However, as Hua Yutong just married to the seventh prince, she was not liked by the seventh prince
and others in his mansion. However, the seventh prince was her husband after all. If Hua Yutong is
really a straightforward and innocent girl as Lady Hua Guo said, she must have been very worried
about him. Even though Hua Yutong didn''t want to marry the seventh prince, he was still her husband
and the backbone of their mansion.
Thinking of this, Yun Shang raised her hand to stop Qin Yi. She turned around and looked at the
anxious look on the face of Hua Yutong. "I know something. But Yutong, don''t worry. The seventh
prince has been kneeling outside the Taiji hall for two days. Yesterday, Prince Rui came into the pce
too and pleaded with the emperor for him. I think he cane back this afternoon at thetest. "
"Kneel down for two days and two nights?" Hearing this, Hua Yutong''s face turned paler. She said,
"Even a healthy person couldn''t bear that, let alone the seventh prince who has always been in poor
health. How can he bear to kneel for such a long time?"
Yun Shang hurried tofort her, "Yutong, believe me. The seventh prince will be fine. Yesterday,
Prince Rui went to the pce to plead for him. I am also ready to go there and take a look."
Hua Yutong thought for a while, held Yun Shang''s hand and said, "Shang''er, take me with you into the
pce."
"Okay, please sit down for a moment. I''ll go into the pce with you after I finish making up." Yun
Shang smiled mildly.
Only then did Hua Yutong nodded. She walked aside and sat down. The embroidered handkerchief in
her hand was crumpled into a ball. After a long time, she sighed, "I''m just afraid that as soon as I

married into the mansion of the seventh prince, something bad happened to him. In the future, what
should I do?"
Yun Shang understood Hua Yutong''s fear. She nodded and said softly, "I understand."
After Qin Yi dressed Yun Shang up, Yun Shang stood up and went outside with Hua Yutong. But Hua
Yutong hurriedly said, "Shang''er, put on a cloak. It''s a little cold outside."
Yun Shang answered with a smile. After Qin Yi put a silver cloak on Yun Shang, they got in the carriage
and went to the pce.
As soon as they entered the pce, Yun Shang walked to the Taiji hall to have a look. The officials of
the court stood stately in front of the gate, but she didn''t see the figures of the seventh prince and Luo
Qingyan kneeling on the ground.
Yun Shang pondered for a while, then she drew Hua Yutong aside, bypassed the Taiji hall, and headed
for the imperial household. "I didn''t see the seventh prince and his highness. I guess they are probably
in the Taiji hall now."
Hua Yutong turned around, looked at the direction of the Taiji hall, nodded gently, and followed Yun
Shang to the Xiang Zhu Pce.
As soon as she entered the Xiang Zhu Pce, she saw Lin Youran taking a walk outside the side hall.
When she saw Yun Shang enter the door, she was excited. But before she walked forward, she saw
Hua Yutong following Yun Shang. After thinking for a moment, she slowly walked up and said, "Your
Highnesses."
