Chapter 1034 Back To The Pce (Part Two)


    However, this battle also caused great losses. The State of Xia had also consumed a lot of soldiers. It


    was okay in the Lingxi City, but outside the city, there were corpses everywhere, which brought some


    heaviness to the people while they were enjoying their victory.


    After staying in the Lingxi City for more than half a month, Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang finished the


    management of the battlefield and sorted out the follow-up matters. At the end of June, they returned to


    the pce.


    Before they got to the Jin City, the news of the great victory had already spread to the city. The story of


    Yun Shang''s all-sided array had already be the favorite story of storytellers'' in the tea house.


    Therefore, on the day they entered the city, almost all the people there came out to wee their


    happy return. Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan sat in the imperial carriage, holding Bao''er in her arms.


    Outside the carriage, cheers for his Majesty resounded through the sky.


    After the carriage entered the pce gate, Luo Qingyan went straight to the Taiji Pce. Yun Shang


    went directly to the Weiyang Pce.


    Getting off the carriage, Yun Shang saw that all thedies in the pce were in the Weiyang Pce. It


    seemed that they had been waiting there for a long time. Yun Shang took a deep breath and stepped


    into the Weiyang Pce.


    Lady Li walked up first, bowed with the others to Yun Shang, and then looked up at her with a smile,


    "Your Majesty, you have won a big victory on the battlefield. Congrattions!"


    Yun Shang smiled and said, "Thank you for your appreciation. I didn''t do anything special actually." As


    Yun Shang spoke, she stepped into the main hall of the Weiyang Pce.


    Qian Zhuo and Qin Yi came up, helped Yun Shang sit down and served tea for her.


    Bao''er fell asleep on the way. Yun Shang handed him to Qin Yi and said with a smile, "Put him on the


    bed. Don''t wake him up."


    Qin Yi answered in a hurry. Yun Shang looked at the concubines who followed her in, rubbed her


    aching forehead and ordered to arrange a seat for everyone present.


    After chatting for a while, Yun Shang sent the guests out on the pretext of the long trip on the way and


    taking a rest.


    After the Weiyang Pce was finally quiet, Yun Shang stood up and went into the inner pce. Qian


    Zhuo and Qin Yi followed her in. Yun Shang looked up at them two and smiled. She asked softly,

    "Thank you for your hard work these days. Is there anything happening in the pce?"


    Qin Yi and Qian Zhuo looked at each other and said, "It''s very quiet this time. I''m also surprised."


    "But your majesty asked me to keep an eye on Qi Ruihai when you left the Imperial Pce. And I did


    find something strange," Qian Zhuo said smilingly.


    "Oh?" Yun Shang looked up and remembered that she had seen Lady Wan just now. She didn''t look


    unusual, so she asked softly, "What''s the matter?"


    Qian Zhuo lowered her voice and reported, "Lord Qi is sending the forbidden medicine to the pce."


    ''Forbidden drug?'' Yun Shang thought of the secret guard who had reported to see that Qi Ruihai gave


    food to Lady Wan and asked her to give it to the neenth Prince. She became a little suspicious,


    "What kind of forbidden medicine is it?"


    "Musk kernel, Hanshi Drug," Qian Zhuo answered in a low voice, "The Neishi Bureau is in charge of the


    arrangement of the eunuchs going out of the imperial pce to visit their rtives. Every few days, Qi


    Ruihai would send one of that kind of visitors to go to the Xialiu Lane to fetch something for him. The


    secret guards looked through the ount book of that person and found out what Qi Ruihai ordered to


    take."


    They are Musk kernel and Hanshi Drug." These two kinds of herbs were both forbidden in the pce. If


    Qi Ruihai divided these two kinds of herbs, Yun Shang might not know their uses. But once they were


    taken together, Yun Shang knew that there was a prescription that needed to use these two kinds of


    herbs together. In fact, there were a total of three medicinal herbs, and the other were the artemisia


    leaves. But the medicine was an ordinary one in the Imperial Hospital. Qi Ruihai was in charge of all


    the eunuchs in the pce, so it was not difficult to for him get this kind of medicine.


    These three kinds of herbs when put together could make people look listless with disordered pulse,


    weak hands and feet, but they would not hurt the body at all. This symptom was very simr to that of


    the neenth Prince.


    That meant the neenth Prince might not be sick at all.


    She remembered what the secret guard had heard from the dialogue between Lady Wan and Qi


    Ruihai, in which she said she only had one child and she must protect him. She didn''t want the


    neenth Prince to be a victim in the struggle for that position.


    Yun Shang then realized that Lady Wan was afraid that the neenth Prince would be affected during


    the fight between Luo Qingyan and Xia Houjing for the throne.


    Yun Shang curled her lips and thought, ''Lady Wan is such a stone-hearted mother.''. Although the pills


    made of the three kinds of medicine wouldn''t hurt the neenth Prince'' body, they were forbidden after


    all and had quite a big harm.


    "Since your majesty is not in the pce, we don''t dare to deal with it rashly. We only collected evidence


    so that you will make a decision after you return to the pce. What do you think we should do?" Qian


    Zhuo asked softly.


    Yun Shang curled her lips and said with a hint of slyness in her eyes, "The neenth Prince is only a


    child of three or four years old. He can''t pose a threat to anyone. But this can be a handle for us to win


    over Qi Ruihai. Doesn''t Qi Ruihai care so much about his sister? I will protect his sister for him, but he


    must work for me. "
