Chapter 1044 Make him work for her (Part Two)


    Yun Shang] smiled. Qi Ruihai looked calm and told a lie calmly.


    "Lord Qi also knows what kind of crime it is to smuggle the forbidden medicine into the pce."


    Qi Ruihai nodded imperceptibly and answered in a low voice, "death penalty."


    "Yes." Yun Shang smiled, "But I have to tell you the truth. Among all the directors in the imperial


    household, you are the most promising one. If Lord Qi can help me, I will pretend not to know about it


    and won''t cut off your way of wealth. I''m the only one in his majesty''s harem now. Lord Qi, what do you


    think? "


    Qi Ruihai pondered for a long time and didn''t respond. Yun Shang was not in a hurry and waited


    quietly.


    After a long while, Qi Ruihai suddenly knelt down and said, "I, Qi Ruihai, am willing to work for your


    majesty."


    Hearing this, Yun Shang smiled and said, "Well, Lord Qi is a man of sense. In that case, if you are loyal


    to me, I won''t treat you unfairly. But to put it bluntly, betrayal is thest thing I want. If you betray me, I


    have thousands of ways to make your life worse than death. Not only you, but also the people you care


    about. "


    A hint of coldness shed through Yun Shang''s eyes, but Qi Ruihai was secretly shocked. He nodded

    and agreed.


    After Qi Ruihai left, Qian Zhuo came in. She looked back at his back and said gently, "Your Majesty, I


    don''t understand."


    Yun Shang took a look at Qian Zhuo. There were many people around her, but not many people she


    could trust. Qian Zhuo was one of them. Although she was more mature than before, she stillcked a


    lot in dealing with things. She hoped that she could grow up quickly, so she smiled and said, "Oh? Tell


    me, what do you not understand? "


    Qian Zhuo said, "I don''t understand two things. First, you can ask someone to invite Qi Ruihai here


    directly. Why did you find an excuse?"


    Hearing this, Yun Shang looked at the faint parrot in the bird cage aside and said softly, "Qi Ruihai is


    smart. If I ask him to Weiyang Pce for no reason, he will understand that I have a n and will think


    of all kinds of ways to deal with it in advance. What I want is to make him unprepared."


    "Let me guess. The second thing you don''t understand is why I didn''t mention Lady Wan and the


    neenth Prince." said Yun Shang, blinking her eyes.


    Qian Zhuo nodded repeatedly. "Lady Wan is the sister of Qi Ruihai. And Qi Ruihai sneaked into the


    pce with the forbidden medicine forthe neenth Prince. The two are the best excuses to threaten


    Qi Ruihai to surrender, but your majesty didn''t mention them at all."


    Yun Shang nodded, "You''re right. From what we know now, Lady Wan and the neenth Prince are


    probably the people Qi Ruihai cares most in the pce, but I only mentioned the forbidden medicine."


    Seeing Qian Zhuo nod, Yun Shang asked, "Then let me ask you, what do you think of Qi Ruihai''s


    power after so many years in the pce?"


    "He must be very powerful." Qian Zhuo answered without hesitation.


    Yun Shang nodded, "By the way, although Qi Ruihai looks calm and self-control, it''s just because I


    haven''t touched his bottom line. He had been looking for his sister for so many years, and he had done


    so much for her. It could be seen that she and the neenth Prince were the people that Qi Ruihai


    cared most in the pce. If I threatened him with Lady Wan and the neenth Prince, I would


    inevitably exert too much strength, which would make Qi Ruihai feel that the two people''s lives were in


    my hands. If he had to fight to the death, he would take advantage of his power in the pce to kill me.


    Although it may not be sessful, this method is not good for me. On the contrary, I lost a useful


    person and put myself in danger. "


    "If Lady Wan wants the neenth Prince to stay away from the disputes, the pill is the key. If Qi Ruihai


    can''t get the pill, what he has done before will be in vain. If I on purpose, Qi Ruihai would be worried


    that I would cut off the source of the medicine. Then I deliberately mentioned in the conditions I offered.


    If he is willing to work for me, I won''t stop him from taking pills into the pce. This is a great


    temptation for him. "


    After listening to Yun Shang''s exnation, a hint of understanding shed through Qian Zhuo''s eyes.


    She nodded repeatedly, "Your majesty, you are so scheming."


    Yun Shang red at Qian Zhuo and smiled. "Now Qi Ruihai has to work for me no matter he wants or


    not. In this way, many things will be easier. The cleaning of the imperial household can start from the


    servants of each pce. "


    "Got it, mydy." Qian Zhuo answered in a hurry


    While the two were talking, a voice came from outside, "Your majesty, Lady Cao wants to see you."


    Yun Shang nodded. Then she walked to the door, lifted the curtain and said with a smile, "Lady Cao,


    please."


    Lady Cao came in with a gentle smile and greeted Yun Shang.


    "Lady Cao, you don''t have to be so courteous." Yun Shang asked Qian Qian to bring a chair for Cao


    Shanxiu to sit down. Then she looked up at Cao Shanxiu and said, "You look good."


    Hearing this, Cao Shanxiu smiled and said, "Thank you for your good guidance, your majesty.


    Recently, the fifteenth Princess has been learning from madam, reading and ying the zither. She has


    be gentler and maturer in dealing with people. I''m relieved."


    "The fifteenth Princess is not a stubborn and uneducated person, and she is kind-hearted. If you guide


    her more, she will be a good daughter. By the way, I said that I would choose a man for the fifteenth


    Princess, but I was dyed by the matter of Lingxi City a few days ago. I have ordered someone to


    make a list of the people of the right age in the court, and their portraits and birthday are also included.


    Later, I will ask Qian Zhuo to make a list and send it to your pce. " Yun Shang said with a smile.


    Hearing this, Cao Shanxiu looked very happy. She quickly smiled and said, "Thank you, your majesty."


    After thanking her, Cao Shanxiu looked up at Yun Shang, thought for a moment, and said, "There''s one


    thing. I don''t know if I think too much, but I''m afraid that something bad will happen if I don''t report it to


    you."


    Seeing her expression, Yun Shang raised her eyebrows and said, "I didn''t think you were such a


    coward before? What was it? Tell me. "


    Cao Shanxiu nodded and said in a low voice, "Not long ago, your majesty was not in the pce. I was


    in collusion with Lady Li to deal with the affairs of the imperial household. By ident, I found that Lady


    Li had secretly put several seals on several white papers when she took your private seal from Qian


    Zhuo and Qin Yi. I don''t know what did she do this for, but I''m afraid it''s not appropriate."


    "Oh? How could this happen? " Yun Shang raised her eyebrows and turned to look at Qian Zhuo. The


    confusion on Qian Zhuo''s face didn''t seem to be fake. It could be seen that she really didn''t know about


    it, but Lady Li didn''t know kung fu. Besides, Yun Shang had ordered that if Lady Li and Lady Cao used


    her private seal, Lady Li, Lady Cao, Qin Yi and Qian Zhuo must be present. Qian Zhuo was good at


    Kung Fu. If Lady Li could hide the truth from Qian Zhuo and Qin Yi, how could Cao Shanxiu find out?


    Yun Shang thought to herself, but she didn''t show it on her face.
