Chapter 670 A Strange Scent (Part Two)
Ning Qian pondered for a while, and said again, "But they didn''t bring the furniture here until the third
day. I think someone has been involved in the plot, and they want to make something bad to Lin
Youran, so the imperial household department has to make another set of furniture and send them
here. On the one hand, they were afraid that we would find out the truth, so they sent the furniture to us
in a hurry before the smell dissipated."
Yun Shang was also full of doubts. She thought for a while and turned to Qin Yi. She said, "Qin Yi, you
go out of the pce and ask the coachman to take you to Qian Yin and find a reliable carpenter for us."
Qin Yi nodded her head and was about to go out. Ning Qian frowned and said, "but even if a carpenter
has been found, this ce is still a ce where people can''te and go so easily..."
Qin Yi heard her words and stopped. She turned around to look at Yun Shang. Yun Shang was silent
for a moment before she looked around. Then she bent down and took out the dagger tied to her leg.
She thought for a moment, and made a big carved wood from under the bed curtain. She took it out
and handed it to Qin Yi. It had a length of about a foot. "Be careful. Take this thing out of the pce.
Qian Yin will find a carpenter for you. Ask the carpenter have a look at the wood and see if there is
anything wrong with it."
Qin Yi answered yes, took the wood and looked around. Then she took a rope from the side and tied
the wood to her thigh. She bowed to Yun Shang and said, "I''ll go now."
Yun Shang nodded her head, took out the jade badge that symbolized her identity and handed it to Qin
Yi. "Go to ask the carpenter for details, and then go back to our mansion. If Prince Rui and I haven''t
returned to the mansion, youe to the pce with this token."

Qin Yi took over the token, bowed to her and left.
After Qin Yi left, Yun Shang checked the whole room up and down. Seeing that she was unhurried,
Ning Qian said worriedly, "Your Highness is pregnant now. There are bad things in this room for the
baby, so you can''t stay long as well. You''d better sit in the main hall, your highness."
Yun Shang smiled, said okay and went to the main hall with Ning Qian.
No sooner had she sat down in the main hall than a maid came in. She took a look at Yun Shang, who
was drinking tea in the hall, and curtsied to her, "Hello, Lady Rui and Lady Xiang. The empress sent
me to ask about the matter. Is there any result yet?"
Yun Shang raised her eyebrows and stood up in a hurry. She said with a smile on her face, "please
help me get back to the empress. Tell her that I haven''t had any result yet. I just felt a little
ufortable all of a sudden, so I sent someone back to my mansion to take the medicine for me. I''m
taking a rest here for a while."
The maid looked impatient at Yun Shang and nodded her head carelessly. She bent a little and left the
hall.
Yun Shang smiled a little and said, "I have juste here and sat down for a while. Then someone has
life for there is a spy of the empress."
Ning Qian breathed out a small sigh, "it''s so hard to keep the imperial household clean. If I let my
pce to be too clean and full of my own people, the empress will get back at me in every way she
can. And now with a spy here, I can also rest assured that there is someone here to keep an eye on
me for her. Besides, I know who the spy is. Generally speaking, the only thing that can enable her to
pass down to the empress is just a piece of insignificant information. "
"You''d better know what to do." Yun Shang thought for a while, and felt the empress'' was really
suspicious about everything. Ning Qian was right about this.
It had been almost two hours since Qin Yi went out of the pce. It waspletely dark outside. Yun
Shang frowned and her eyebrows flickered. Then she heard a voicee from outside, "greetings,
your majesty. Greetings, Prince Rui."
Yun Shang and Ning Qian stood up in a hurry, and saw Xia Huanyu and Luo Qingyaning in
together.
ncing around the room, Xia Huanyu said, "have you had dinner yet?"
Ning Qian shook her head and went up to the emperor, "I''ve arranged for some food. Your majesty,
what would you like to eat?"
"I want nothing special to eat. How about Prince Rui? What do you want to eat?" Turning around, Xia
Huanyu looked at Luo Qingyan.
Luo Qingyan meditated for a moment and said softly, "make some osmanthus cakes."
On hearing this, Ning Qian quietly turned around to look at Yun Shang, and, with a smile on her face,
ordered her servants to do as the Prince Rui said.
Xia Huanyu walked to a chair nearby and sat down. Taking a look at the three of them who were still
standing, he asked, "sit down. Why do you stand there?"
After the three of them sat down, the maid hurriedly brought tea here. Xia Huanyu took up the tea cup
at hand, picked up the lid, and casually swept the foam in the cup. After a long while, he raised his
head and looked at Yun Shang, as if asking in an extremely casual tone, "How is it going? How is the
investigation going on with Lady Hui''s matter? Have you got any clues? "
