Chapter 672 Send News Secretly
Yun Shang stayed upte in the night. She got up a littlete the next day. Just after she finished her
breakfast, the butler brought the ount book to her. "Today''s ount books are about other
mansions. They contained every detail about the mansions we bought after we came to the State of
Xia. Your highness, you don''t have to read it in one day."
Yun Shang looked through it and nodded, "OK, I see."
When Yun Shang opened the ount book, Qian Liu came in, "Your highness, the servant reported
that the seventh princess hase."
"Yutong?" Yun Shang thought for a while. Since the seventh prince had knelt down in the Taiji hall, Hua
Yutong hadn''te to her for days. And the incident of the seventh prince had been left unsettled, just

as Yun Shang expected.
"Ask the seventh princess toe in." Yun Shang replied with a smile.
Qian Liu answered and went out again. After a while, she led Hua Yutong in.
When Yun Shang saw Hua Yutonge in, she closed the ount book in her hand and stood up
with a smile. "You have known my habits well. I''ve just got up and now you are here."
Hua Yutong smiled lightly, but only sighed softly, "It''s turned so cold today. When I came here just now,
I felt as if my face was cut into pieces by the wind."
Yun Shang listened and looked at Hua Yutong carefully. She couldn''t help but have some feelings. Hua
Yutong was different from what she was before she got married, although she had been married for
less than a month. For these days, her eyes were full of sadness.
"The spring wille after several cold months. I heard that the most beautiful time in the State of Xia
is spring. All the peach blossom bloomed, like a paradise on earth. I missed itst year when I came to
the State of Xia. I have to take a good look this year." Yun Shang said with a smile, taking the seat
beside her.
Hua Yutong answered, seemingly absent-minded. "Yes, peach flowers are all over the mountains.
They''re very beautiful." While speaking, he looked around casually. "I saw you looking at the ount
book just now? I didn''t see you do that before. I thought you have no interest in these things."
"Yes, you''re right. I''m not into it. But I have no idea. I have to learn." Yun Shang replied casually and
asked Qian Liu to pour tea for Hua Yutong and fetch some cakes.
"I heard that after the seventh prince knelt down outside the Taiji hallst time, he sent for a doctor. Is
he all right?" Yun Shang asked softly. She had heard about it from Luo Qingyan that the seventh prince
had asked for a leave and hadn''t attended the morning court since then. The seventh prince had knelt
for about twenty hours in coldness. Even an ordinary person couldn''t bear it.
Hearing Yun Shang''s question, a bitter smile appeared on Hua Yutong''s face. She lowered her head
and said, "To tell you the truth, after that day, I haven''t seen the seventh prince at all. Every time I went
to bring him some tonic soup, I was stopped outside the door by his servant. I''ve nevere in. "
Yun Shang didn''t expect such a terrible thing to happen. She thought for a while and said, "You must
have suffered a lot."
Hua Yutong shook her head with a smile. "It doesn''t matter if I''m bitter or not. It''s probably my fate.
These days, I''ve seen clearly that I''ve just got the title of the seventh prince. In fact, no one has
regarded me as the real princess in the mansion. It doesn''t matter, though I don''t understand many
things, I know vaguely. But it''s not a bad thing. After Prince Rui... "
Hua Yutong paused for a while, chuckled, and continued, "After that, I will ask for a divorce letter and
live my own life."
Yun Shang narrowed her eyes slightly and thought, ''The words Hua Yutong didn''t speak out should be
''after Prince Rui ascended to the throne''.
"You are a good girl. You will find your own happiness." Yun Shang smiled and held her hands.
Hua Yutong nodded her head. She remained silent for a while and said in a casual tone, "But his
highness should be fine now. This morning when I was walking in the mansion, I saw General Feng
Ming enter his yard."
Feng Ming? Yun Shang went nk for a while. The information about the officers and generals of the
State of Xia shed through her mind. She was remembering Feng Ming, but she kept calm. "It''s good
that the seventh prince is all right. Don''t worry about him."
Hua Yutong was stunned for a while and then nodded.
After they chatted for a while, Hua Yutong stood up and left. Yun Shang asked a maid to send her out.
Then she looked up at Qian Liu, "Fetch the third book on the third row on the bookshelf."
Qian Liu answered and took the book for Yun Shang. Yun Shang opened the book and tried to recall.
Then she opened it and turned to a page, and her fingers slid down,nding on the bottom of a name:
Feng Ming.
After a while, Yun Shang slightly frowned. "After the war in KY City, Feng Ming was dispatched by Xia
Huanyu to guard the city not far away from KY City. I haven''t heard Xia Huanyu has summoned him
recently. The general guarding the border cannot go back to the Jin City without being summoned. Why
is he here in the Jin City, especially in the mansion of the seventh prince. Has seventh prince taken any
actionstely? "
"Is it possible that the seventh princess made a mistake?" Qian Zhuo stood aside listening to Yun
Shang''s muttering and said gently.
Yun Shang turned to look at Qian Zhuo. She said, "When I heard what Yutong said just now, I could
almost guess that she came here for this matter. Thus, she looked absent-minded before telling me
this. I don''t know why she told me about it, but since she came here specially to tell me, she must have
been sure. "
Yun Shang thought for a while and said to Qian Zhuo, "Feng Ming''s mother is still living in the Jin City,
so you send secret guards to keep a close eye on her secretly. He is a dutiful son. If he returns to the
Jin City, it is impossible that he doesn''t go to visit her. Tell them to report to me if there is anything
unusual."
Qian Zhuo responded and left.
Yun Shang still had some doubts. Why did the seventh prince keep in touch with the general? He might
want to ask for military forces topete for the throne. If not for the throne, what else is it for? It was
less likely that he intended to ask the general to attack the State of Ning. After all, the State of Ning had
signed a peace agreement with the State of Xia.
But there was another possibility. He might let Feng Ming create some chaos at the border and said
that the State of Ning wanted to stir up trouble and then took the opportunity to send his troops out.
However, even if the state of Ning and the State of Xia were in fight, the seventh prince would not get
any benefit. He wouldn''t make a fuss about her.
Yun Shang thought about every possibility, but she still didn''t find anything. She frowned and said to
Qin Yi, "Qin Yi, prepare brush, ink and paper. I''ll write to father and mother."
Qin Yi was surprised at Yun Shang''s words for a while. Then she prepared these things. Yun Shang sat
down at the desk. After a moment''s meditation, she started writing.
After finishing it, Yun Shang handed the letter to Qian Liu. "Ask the secret guard to help me send the
letter back to the State of Ning."
Qian Liu replied and went out.
Qin Yi thought for a while and said, "Your highness, are you afraid that the seventh prince will make
use of your identity?"
Yun Shang smiled, "Since everyone knows my identity, how could he make use of it. I''m just afraid he
will do something on the border of the State of Xia and the State of Ning. If the two countrye into
conflict, my identity will be biggest weakness of Qingyan. That''s not what I want."
Qin Yi nodded and sighed, "The identity of your highness is noble, but..."
Yun Shang knew what she wanted to say. She smiled but didn''t reply. She picked up the ount book
which was put aside when Hua Yutong came and began to read carefully.
But in less than an hour, the butler came in again, "Your highness, someone from the imperia pce
hase."
"The imperial pce?" Yun Shang frowned and asked, "Who sent?"
"Her majesty..." The butler answered in a low voice.
Yun Shang sighed and knew that she had no time for the ount book today. Thinking of this, Yun
Shang put aside the ount book and said to the butler, "I see. Ask him to wait in the garden house. I
thought I didn''t need to meet guests today, so I just dressed in some casual clothes andbed my
hair in a casual style. I''ll change first."
The butler responded and walked out of the room.
Qin Yi quickly took out a pink dress embroidered with cloud patterns and help Yun Shang change.
Then she changed Yun Shang''s hairstyle and put on a pink flower crown.
Yun Shang smiled and shook her head. "It''s likely that she wille to the imperial pce. The
empress always dislikes others to dress too bright. It''s New Year, and there''s nothing wrong with it. But
just take it off and put on some hairpins." Then she called a maid in and said, "if Qian Liu and Qian
Zhuoe back, tell them I''m going to the imperial pce now. If they have nothing to do in the
afternoon, go to Wang Congwen''s mansion and keep an eye on him."
The maid said yes. Qin Yi took off the crown and put on two golden butterfly hairpins and a pink
hairband on her bun. Yun Shang nodded. Putting on a silver cloak, she stood up and went to the
garden house with Qin Yi.
It was just as Yun Shang expected that the servant from the pce came to pass on the empress''s
decree, andmanded Yun Shang to enter the pce.
Yun Shang smiled and took over the decree. Then she asked the servants to prepare a carriage.
Qin Yi lifted the curtain and cast a nce at the person riding the horse to the front. Then she put the
curtain down and whispered to Yun Shang, "The empress is calling you toe to the imperial pce.
It''s most likely for the matter concerning Lady Hui. What are you going to do?"
Yun Shang smiled and raised her eyebrows. "What are you afraid of? There are so many people in the
pce. Even if she wants to do something to me, she won''t be able to plot against me in such a
situation."
Qin Yi replied in a low voice, and then they stopped talking.
