Chapter 1048 A Trap
Luo Qingyan nodded with a smile on his face. He walked to Yun Shang and sat down opposite her.
"Ghost Doctor is so skilled. I''m sure he will be able to cure Chengye. Don''t worry."
The smile on Yun Shang''s face faded a little. She kept silent for a while and sighed, "Ghost Doctor
asked us to be prepared. He said it''s difficult to cure Chengye he has injured when he was in my belly."
The smile on Luo Qingyan''s face disappeared in an instant. He looked at Yun Shang with a bit of pity.
After a long time, he walked around the desk, walked behind Yun Shang, reached out his arms around
Yun Shang, andforted her softly, "It doesn''t matter. No matter what, he is our child. Our first child is
also the most important child. No matter he is smart or not, no matter what he looks like, I will give him
the best. I will try my best to protect him from being hurt. "
Yun Shang nodded slightly with tears in her eyes, "Okay."
After saying that, tears suddenly fell down. Yun Shang lowered her head and didn''t want Luo Qingyan
to see her. Luo Qingyan also looked away. He took a deep breath and said gently, "By the way, I have
a good news for you. Your father is on his way here with Lady Jin and Chenxi."
Hearing this, Yun Shang trembled and looked up in surprise. But she remembered that there were still
tears in her eyes, so she quickly lowered her head and asked, "Why do father and mothere here?
Will my brother alsoe? "
Luo Qingyan nodded and said, "They might be worried about you after knowing what happened to you
and fear that you will be wronged in the State of Xia because of this, so theye to ask about it in
person."
Hearing this, Yun Shang couldn''t help but burst intoughter. She nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes,
the State of Xia is too bullying, especially your father. He tried every means to push me out. Just now I
heard from Ghost Doctor that the one who asked him to expose me in front of everyone was Liu
Wenan. It must be your father who ordered it. When my father arrives, I will report it to him. I will let you
know that if anyone in the State of Xia bullies me at will, my father will not let you go."
Luo Qingyan lowered his eyes with an apologetic look. He held Yun Shang tighter, patted her on the
shoulder and said softly, "Okay, okay. It''s all my fault. Brother should teach me a lesson."
Yun Shang pursed her lips and lowered her head. Her mood was mixed with joy and sorrow.
What pleased her was that Ghost Doctor said that there was still hope for her to get pregnant again,
and also the arrival of her father, mother and brother. She hadn''t seen them for a long time and missed
them more and more. The worry was that Bao''er might really have to be like this. She was worried that
she would make father and mother sad.
Yun Shang closed her eyes slowly, took a deep breath andforted herself, ''It doesn''t matter. Bao''er
is fine now. He can cry,ugh and make trouble. It''s good, nothing bad.''.
The weather was getting cooler and cooler. Recently, Yun Shang was gettingzier and didn''t want to
get up too early. Fortunately, she was the only one in Luo Qingyan''s harem, and she didn''t have to get
up early every day to receive the greetings from other concubines. Yun Shang slept soundly untilte in
the morning.
After Qian Liu get Yun Shang dressed, Yun Shang saw Qian Zhuoe in with breakfast. As soon as
Qian Zhuo entered the inner hall, she set the food on the table and ordered the other servants to
retreat to the main hall to wait. After Yun Shang walked to the table, Qian Zhuo handed the chopsticks
to her. She reported in a low voice, "I got something about Lady Li yesterday."

Yun Shang rubbed her forehead. She was still sleepy, and her eyes were not clear. Hearing Qian
Zhuo''s words, she didn''t have much reaction. She just nodded and said, "I see. What have you got?"
Qian Yin lowered her voice and answered, "Yesterday, the secret guard saw a maid of Lady Li sneak
out of the Xiangyi Pce and pressed a sachet under a stone in the garden outside the pce. The
secret guard quietly took out the note from the sachet and copied it. Later, the secret guards saw that
the sachet was taken away by a patrolling guard. "
"Guard?" Yun Shang narrowed her eyes and asked, "There is someone in the Xiangyi Pce who has
contact with the guards?"
The guards patrolling the pce were the imperial guards. If the people in the imperial household had
anything to do with the imperial guards, it would not be a trifle.
Yun Shang took the note from Qian Zhuo and unfolded it. After a while, she folded it and put it aside.
Qian Yin asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, do you need to bring the maid who has secretly sent
letters with the guards here for interrogation?"
Yun Shang shook her head and asked, "Is there any news about Lady Cao?"
Qian Zhuo frowned, "I didn''t hear any news from the secret guard. I heard that Lady Cao was
embroidering in her pce these two days. It''s rare for the fifteenth Princess to obediently learn the
needlework from her."
Yun Shang nodded, "Really?" There was a hint of doubt in her eyes.
Yun Shang didn''t mention it anymore. After breakfast, she went back to her room,y on the couch and
wanted to have a nap. It had been a long time since she got up sote like today, but she seemed to be
more sleepy than before.
As soon as Yun Shang asked Qian Zhuo to cover the quilt, she heard Pei Lan''s voice from outside,
"Your Majesty, Lady Cao hase to greet you with the fifteenth Princess."
Yun Shang was a little surprised, "I''ve just talked about her."
After thinking for a while, Yun Shang asked Qian Zhuo to put the note sent by the secret guards on the
desk. It was conspicuous, and the secret textures on the paper could be seen clearly.
After Qian Zhuo settled the note, Yun Shang looked up and said, "Bring Lady Cao and the fifteenth
Princess in."
The bead curtain was opened from outside. Yun Shang saw Cao Shanxiue in with the fifteenth
Princess. The two of them walked to Yun Shang and bowed to her. Yun Shang nced at them and
said with a smile, "I got up early today to deal with something. I was about to go back to sleep, but you
two came. Please don''t be courteous. Qian Zhuo, Pei Lan, bring chairs for Lady Cao and the fifteenth
Princess."
Pei Lan immediately agreed and did as she was told.
"The fifteenth Princess now look like noble princess. Very good. By the way, I was discussing with your
mother that you are not young and it''s time for you to marry a husband. Do you have someone you
like? " Yun Shang asked with a smile.
The fifteenth Princess lowered her head and blushed. "It''s up to you, royal sister-inw."
Yun Shang chatted with Lady Cao and the fifteenth Princess, but they didn''t say anything important.
Yun Shang saw her look at the desk aside again and again, and Yun Shang just ignored it.
After Lady Cao left, Yun Shang smiled and said, "She didn''t know how to hide her true color. She''s
being too anxious which would attract attention."
Qian Zhuo looked at the curtain thoughtfully. After a while, she asked Yun Shang, "What''s your n,
your majesty?"
Yun Shang smiled and said, "She wants me to angrily question Lady Li, but I can''t do as she wishes.
We should remain the same, and some people will be anxious."
There was some doubt in Qian Zhuo''s eyes, but she nodded and didn''t ask any more.
On the morning of the third day, a maid in the Xiangyi Pce was found dead in her room. She was
hung to death at the door.
There was no sign of fighting in the room. Judging from the mark on her neck, it was indeed hanged to
death, as if she wasmitting suicide.
Qi Ruihai took the coroner of the Neishi Bureau to examine the corpse. There were no other wounds.
The eunuchs from Neishi Bureau found an iplete paper in the maid''s room.
The paper looked more like a letter. There were only a few words on it, which should have been torn
down. The handwriting on the paper was a little familiar to Yun Shang, and she had even seen it a few
days ago.
It was written by Hua Ling.
The words were "ghost", "pregnancy", "kill", "disaster", "empress" and "Xiu".
"These words seem to have some meaning." Yun Shang smiled when she heard Qian Zhuo''s report.
"How could the handwriting of Empress Hua appear in Lady Li''s pce? It didn''t make sense? Even if
she is framed, it''s too presumptuous. " Qian Zhuo was confused.
Yun Shang smiled and said, "When Hua Ling was the empress, the first person who worked for her in
the imperial household was Lady Li. It made sense that she asked Lady Li to do something. These
words... "
Even if it was just a few words, Yun Shang could roughly guess the meaning. Yun Shang blinked her
eyes. The schemer must have known the pain in her heart very well, so he deliberately exposed the
letter to her. Presumably, the schemer wanted to arouse her anger and then use her to do something.
This matter had something to do with Hua Ling .Hua Ling was now with Xia Huanyu, and Xia Houjing
was in the hands of Xia Huanyu. What did the person behind it want to do?
Yun Shang narrowed her eyes and wondered the motive of the enemy. What she should do now was to
figure out what the other party wanted to do, calcte their next actions, and then counterattack
against them.
Since the person was trying to attract her attention through Lady Li, he must want to send her some
information or let her know what he had found. Now she needed to wait, waiting for more clues to be
found by Qi Ruihai. The more clues she got, the more urately she could break through.
