Chapter 1019 A Favorable Terrain (Part Two)
When they arrived at the northernmost part of Phoenix Mountain, Yun Shang happened to see the
sunset. There was a cliff in the north of Phoenix Mountain, and the mountain seemed as if it had been
cut by a knife. The canyon below was the boundary between the State of Yng and the State of Xia.
The two sides of the mountain were a little t. It was not early, so Yun Shang went down the mountain
with her secret guards. When they were about a mile away from the bottom of the mountain, Yun
Shang saw a stone forest. Looking from the top of the mountain, the stone forest was extremely
spectacr. There were many stones that were as tall as four or five people standing, and the stones
were also in different shapes.
When he got closer, he found that the stones were covered with thick moss. The distance between the
stones was different. It seemed that he had entered a maze. Yun Shang made a detour for a while, but
she still couldn''t get out of the stones.
The secret guards, one on the left and one on the right, took Yun Shang and jumped on the stone. It
was not until then that Yun Shang found that the stone forest had extended for almost two or three
miles, which was frightening.
"Master, there are stones everywhere. We are blocked in the way, and we can''t tell the direction with
the mist. It''s easy to get lost. Let''s make a detour." The secret guard said softly.
Make a detour. Yun Shang looked around and found that there was a cliff in the north and a dense
forest in the south. If they would make a detour, they had to go through the forest. They had walked
through the muddy woods before they came here, and there were many kinds of fierce beasts in the
woods.
Yun Shang smiled, "This is the perfect ce to make an array."
The secret guards didn''t know why Yun Shang said so, and they were all confused. Yun Shang looked
up and said, "Take me over from this stone. I''ll carefully look at the position of these stones, and I can
draw a picture after we go back."
The secret guard answered and leaped over the stone forest with Yun Shang using Qinggong.
After going down the mountain and returning to the mansion, Yun Shang shut herself in the study
before eating anything. She fetched a writing brush and drew out the positions of each stone in the
stone forest.
It was already midnight when Yun Shang finished. Yun Shang put away the paper and went back to her
bedroom to sleep.
The second morning, when she woke up, it was already dawn. Bao''er was held in Hua''er''s arms and
fed breakfast. Yun Shang looked at her for a while and asked, "Where is Pei Lan?"
Hua''er hurriedly said, "Pei Lan is in the kitchen. I''ll go find her right now."
Yun Shang shook her head and said, "Nothing. You can continue to feed Bao''er."
But Bao''er seemed to be full. He turned a blind eye to the porridge fed by Hua''er and looked at Yun
Shang with a smile.
Yun Shang sat up, took her clothes and put them on. Bao''er had been cleaned up, and he was sitting
on the chair in a proper way, with one hand supporting the armrest of the chair.
Looking at the serious look on his face, Yun Shang couldn''t helpughing. She picked up Bao''er and
kissed his forehead with a smile. "Our Bao''er is so cute."
After Yun Shang and Bao''er yed together for a while, Pei Lan came in. Seeing that Yun Shang had
already got up, she quickly walked to Yun Shang and said, "Your majesty, why didn''t you call me when
you woke up? I''ll tie up your hair." Then she asked Yun Shang if she needed to go out to explore the
terrain today.
Yun Shang shook her head and smiled, "just a simple bun."
Pei Lan agreed and helped Yun Shang sit in front of the bronze mirror.
Bao''er was in Yun Shang''s arms and didn''t want to let go. Yun Shang had no choice but to sit down
with Bao''er in her arms. She looked at Pei Lan in the bronze mirror and asked, "Have you sent the
letter we received the day before yesterday to his majesty?"
Pei Lan nodded, "Yes. The secret guard who sent the message said that his majesty said nothing."
Yun Shang nodded, took out Bao''er''s finger from his mouth, and wiped it with a brocade handkerchief.
"Have you chosen a good ce to dig theke?"
"Yes, your majesty. You can have a look after breakfast. It''s in the west of the garden. Now there''s no
one in the mansion, and several guest rooms in the west can be directly demolished. In this way, there
should be a few acres ofnd." Pei Lan smiled and said in a calm voice.
"Okay," said Yun Shang softly.
Pei Lan continued, "But now the city has almost be an empty city, and we can''t find any
craftsmen. I''m afraid it''s difficult for you to see the lotus in summer."
Hearing this, the corners of Yun Shang''s mouth curved up slightly. She took out a very elegant wooden
hairpin from the dresser and handed it to Pei Lan. She said softly, "Why do we need craftsmen? Just let

our secret guards do it. We have brought nearly three hundred people to Lingxi City. Normally, we don''t
need so many secret guards. Just dispatch one hundred and fifty people to do this. "
Hearing this, Pei Lan was stunned for a while. Then she quickly smiled and said, "Your majesty, you
are so thoughtful. I didn''t think of this and even nned to borrow some soldiers from the camp."
"It''s ok to ask some soldiers to do it. But it''s not appropriate to do that now as the war is intensive." Yun
Shang said calmly.
