Chapter 1055 The Appearance Of The Fake Seal
Yun Shang nodded in agreement. Things had graduallye to this point, and it was almost the same
as she had expected. However, the matter of Xia Houjing had not been settled yet, and it was very
"No matter what, we can''t let anyone enter the Yang Liu Town. Send a message to the secret guards
and deal with it as soon as possible. Stop that person and take him back to the Jin City. If there is
anything wrong, you can use the special method at the critical moment and deal with it directly, " Yun
Shang looked calm and said in a cold voice.
Qian Zhuo responded and left the Weiyang Pce in a hurry.
The windows of the inner hall were open, and the fragrance of osmanthus blossoms wafted in. Yun
Shang walked to the bedside and looked out. Outside, Pei Lan was picking the blossoms. Seeing that
Yun Shang looking at her, she curtsied to her.
Yun Shang looked up at the sky. Many dark clouds were up there today, as if it was going to rain.
"It seems that it''s going to rain. The osmanthus blossoms can''t be soaked in the rain. Pick them all and
dry them with fire. His majesty likes the mandarin fish, and I like the osmanthus cake. So the more
osmanthus blossoms you can get, the better, " Yun Shang ordered softly.
Pei Lan answered with a smile. Yun Shang looked at the gate of the Weiyang Pce. Cao Shanxiu
came in in in a purple dress embroidered with azaleas, followed by the fifteenth Princess in a green
dress. Yun Shang restrained her smile and left the inner hall.
Su Mu led Cao Shanxiu and the fifteenth Princess into the main hall. When they two saw Yun Shang

sitting on the Phoenix couch, they quickly walked into the hall and bowed to her. Yun Shang had a faint
smile on the corner of her mouth. Seeing this, she ordered the maid standing aside to give two seats to
them.
Cao Shanxiu sat down and looked up at Yun Shang. She smiled and said, "It''s getting cold. Your
majesty is wearing thin clothes. You should wear more."
Yun Shang smiled, straightened her embroidered dress, and said softly, "I seldom leave the Weiyang
Pce. I don''t feel cold in this room, so it doesn''t matter. Today, I summoned you two here for the
wedding of the fifteenth Princess. Have you seen the portraits of those young men of the right age that
I asked my people to send to your pce before? I haven''t got your response, so I am wondering if you
have chosen anyone that you are satisfied with? "
Hearing this, Cao Shanxiu stood up in a hurry and bowed to Yun Shang. She said gently, "It''s not that I
haven''t chosen the one I''m satisfied with. The people selected by your majesty are all excellent young
men, so I''m satisfied with all of them. Actually they are too good for me to decide one."
Hearing this, Yun Shang smiled, "In that case, do you mind if I make the decision for the fifteenth
Princess?"
Cao Shanxiu and the fifteenth Princess looked at each other. After a long time, she said softly, "Your
majesty, it''s the fifteenth Princess'' honor if you choose a husband for her, but can you tell who he is?"
Yun Shang picked up the tea cup ced by a maid beside her and gently blew the foam on it. Then
she said in a low voice, "I think Sun Bingzhi, the Wuzhuangyuan, is a good choice. Although Sun
Bingzhi just became the Zhuangyuan this year, his majesty ordered him to lead his troops to tame the
rebellion in Liucang City. He has won several consecutive battles, and even the most cunning traitor,
Xia Houjing, has been defeated by him many times. Now, it was said that the chaos of Liucang City
would be settled and they woulde back in a period of time. He has made such a great
achievement at such a young age, and his majesty will give him a good reward. Moreover, he is so
young, and now our court is in a shortage of military officers. He is sure to have a bright future. "
Yun Shang sensed that Cao Shanxiu''s body trembled slightly when Yun Shang told her that the chaos
of Liucang City had been settled by Sun Bingzhi. Yun Shang smiled and saw Qian Liuing in with
two cups of tea.
Yun Shang lowered her head and gently stroked the edge of the slightly hot teacup. Soon enough, a
crisp sound was heard, followed by a scream.
Yun Shang raised her head. The hall was in a mess. There were broken teacups on the ground. Cao
Shanxiu and the fifteenth Princess stood up and hurriedly wiped their clothes with a handkerchief.
"What happened?" Yun Shang frowned and snapped, "I was just in a trance for a moment. And things
changed this way."
Qian Liu knelt down in panic and kowtowed to Yun Shang]. She said in a hurry, "Your Majesty, please
forgive me. It''s all my fault. I tripped over by ident, and all the tea in my hands fell on Her Highness
and the fifteenth Princess."
"Damn it!" Hearing this, Yun Shang stood up in a hurry, walked up to Cao Shanxiu and the fifteenth
Princess, and asked with concern, "Did you get hurt?"
Anger could be seen in Cao Shanxiu''s eyes. Hearing Yun Shang''s question, she quickly raised the
corners of her mouth and said with a smile, "It''s okay. The tea isn''t too hot, so it''s not hurting. Your
majesty, you don''t need to me her. Everyone may do something wrong, and she should be careful
next time."
The fifteenth Princess was not as easy-going as Cao Shanxiu. Hearing Cao Shanxiu''s words, she
snorted coldly, gritted her teeth and turned her head away. Yun Shang pretended not to see her but
said anxiously, "Although it''s not hot, your clothes are wet. If it''s cold today, I''m afraid you''ll catch a cold
when you go out with your wet clothes. How about this way? You both just change two of my daily
clothes here in the Weiyang Pce? "
Cao Shanxiu waved her hands and said, "It''s not a big deal. Our pce is not far from the Weiyang
Pce. It''s only a few minutes'' walk from here."
"It matters. Go and change clothes here. If you insist not to change clothes, I will think you are angry
with me." Yun Shang smiled, but she didn''t look happy.
Thus, Cao Shanxiu didn''t dare to refuse again. Yun Shang immediately called, "Qian Liu, Pei Lan, go to
the inner hall to find two of my daily clothes for Lady Cao and the fifteenth Princess."
Hearing this, Qian Liu and Pei Lan hurried into the inner hall. Yun Shang smiled and walked in with Cao
Shanxiu and the fifteenth Princess. Qian Liu had already found clothes, and the color was almost the
same as the clothes they two were wearing, and the color was simple and elegant. Qian Liu unfolded
the screen. Seeing this, Cao Shanxiu didn''t say anything but walked behind the screen with Qian Liu
and Pei Lan.
Yun Shang walked to the beauty couch and sat down, staring at the figures behind the screen. She
frowned slightly, and her eyes were deep. No one knew what she was thinking about.
With a "Crack", something fell to the ground. Then, Yun Shang saw a small piece of white thing rolling
out from behind the screen. Yun Shang squinted slightly, stood up and walked over.
She looked at the little white thing and bent down to pick it up. She saw the fifteenth Princess running
out of the screen in a hurry, regardless of only wearing an underwear.
When she saw the thing in Yun Shang''s hand, her face suddenly turned pale. She uttered in a hurry,
"Your Majesty..."
Cao Shanxiu also walked out from behind the screen. She was dressed, but she hadn''t tidied up her
clothes yet.
Yun Shang quietly looked at the thing in her hands while turning it over and over to research it. After
quite a while, she looked up at the two people and said, "Your Highnesses as well as the fifteenth
Princess, if I''m not mistaken, is this my private seal?"
The fifteenth Princess looked flustered, but Cao Shanxiu seemed to have calmed down. She smiled
and said, "Maybe your majesty forgot it in your daily clothes. When I put on your clothes just now, the
clothes may be shaken and it fell out."
"Oh?" Yun Shang smiled, "Really? Lady Cao probably didn''t know that I never gave my own clothes to
others. These two clothes were newly made by the Shangyi Bureau, and the maids have checked them
one by one carefully. Besides... "
Yun Shang paused for a moment and reached out her hand. There was also a small white jade seal in
her hand. On the seal, there were several plum blossoms.
Yun Shang looked up at the two bloodless people, smiled and said, "Lady Cao said it was my private
seal, but you don''t know that I like to keep it close with me."
Cao Shanxiu hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I really don''t know what it is. It didn''t fall
from me or the fifteenth Princess. I don''t know why it suddenly fell here."
"Really so?" Yun Shang picked up the fake seal. The seal was rough, and only the handwriting was a
little exquisite.
"It doesn''t seem to be a masterpiece of a master. I just need to ask someone to check every corner of
the city to know where it came from..." Before Yun Shang could finish her words, she saw Qian Zhuo
Taking a look at the two kneeling on the ground, Qian Zhuo walked up to Yun Shang and handed the
things in her hands to Yun Shang. Yun Shang reached out her hand and took them over. They were
just a few letters. Yun Shang leafed through them roughly and threw them in front of Cao Shanxiu and
the fifteenth Princess. Her voice gradually became cold, "Your Highness said that you didn''t know
where this fake seal came from. Then, your highness, Tell me, where did this letter with my private seal
Cao Shanxiu stared at the letters scattered on the ground. She bit her lips and didn''t say anything.
Yun Shang was not in a hurry. She walked around Cao Shanxiu and said with a smile, "After I came
back from Lingxi City, you reported that Lady Li had secretly printed a few nk letters. Three months
ago, the fifteenth Princess didn''t have the habit of praying or worshiping outside the pce on the first
and fifteenth months ago. She suddenly had this habit in the past few months, and she happened to
save Ming Qian''s brother when she went out of the pce. Later, my secret guards found out that Ming
Qian, who was with Lady Li, after passing on a letter to the guard in private, died a few dayster.
While I was paying attention to Lady Li, the fifteenth Princess hooked up with a businessman selling
cloth outside the pce and went to the Yang Liu Town. Did I miss anything, Lady Cao? "
