Chapter 1177 To See Him Or Not


    The weather was getting colder, so the Shangyi Bureau sent several more clothes over here.


    "I like the clothes made by the new steward of the Shangyi Bureau," Yun Shang reclined on the couch,


    flipped it over and said, "Unlike the clothes made by the Shangyi Bureau before, who always tried to


    pursue luxury and the color was always bright, while the embroidery on them was either a phoenix or a


    peony, or flowers in full bloom and auspicious clouds. It was beautiful, but it was really tacky. Besides,


    in order to pursue a beautiful look, the clothes didn''t feelfortable.


    The clothes sent by the Shangyi Bureau are different now. They are beautiful and pleasant. They are


    elegant and noble, and the fabric they use isfortable. It''s very attractive andfortable. "


    Hearing Yun Shang''sments, Hua''er couldn''t helpughing, "If the new steward of Shangyi Bureau


    knows you praise her like this, she will be very happy."


    "She had done a good job. Of course she deserves my praise," Yun Shang waved her hand casually,


    "Next time you see her, you can tell her what I said."


    "Yes, your majesty."


    Yun Shang raised her hand and asked the servants to take those clothes away.


    Qian Yin came in from the outside. Shewalked to Yun Shang], knelt down and massaged her legs while


    reporting, "Your Majesty, Qian Yin sent a message from outside the pce that the seventh master of


    the Cao n passed a message through our spy that he wanted to see you and discuss something


    with you."


    Yun Shang lowered her eyes and smiled, "He wants to see me? He has something to discuss with me?


    "


    Qian Zhuo nodded, "Your Majesty seems to be very concerned about the Cao n''s affairs recently.


    Will you see him or not?"


    "No," without any hesitation, Yun Shang replied, "I''m not a member of the Cao mansion. How could I


    agree to meet him so easily?"


    Qian Zhuo was a little surprised, "But he said there was something important. Your majesty, you really


    don''t want to hear what important thing it might be?"


    "Cao Han is just a son of a concubine who is not favored by the Cao n. He is not as useless as he


    seems. The only thing he has been paying attention to is the affairs of the Cao n. The Cao n is


    one of the eight noble ns in the Jin City, but if they take any action together with other ns, I should


    be able to receive the news sooner orter. Therefore, the most important thing he talked about was


    mostly about the Cao n.


    If it''s only about the Cao n, no matter how important it is, it''s not a big deal to me,"


    Yun Shang turned a page and went on, "In that case, it doesn''t matter whether I see him or not. But I


    should let him know that I''m the Empress, not someone he can see as he wants. I think highly of him


    when I see him. It''s not a big deal for me to not see him. "


    "Yes, I see, your majesty," hearing Yun Shang''s words, Qian Zhuo nodded slightly and said, "Then I''ll


    return him in this way."


    Yun Shang said yes, and then ordered Qian Zhuo, "Lord Hua Guo''s birthday ising. Go to the


    storehouse and see if there is anything we can use as a gift. Make a list for me and I''ll pick something.


    I''ll take them to Lord Hua Guo''s mansion then."


    Qian Zhuo nodded and responded.


    Yun Shang didn''t meet the seventh master of the Cao n. Two dayster, the detailed information


    about everyone in the Cao n as well as the marriage rtionship were put on Yun Shang''s desk.


    Perhaps it was because the Cao n and its coteral rtives were toorge that there were four


    pamphlets of them on Yun Shang''s desk.


    It took Yun Shang three days to read them one by one. Then she quickly constructed a family map of


    the Cao n in her mind.


    And she found out something wrong with the pamphlet Cao Han had sent to her.


    "As I expected, the Cao n has something to do with Cao Wenxi.


    Cao Wenxi was very cautious. If I only investigate the wives of the men of the Cao n, it won''t be a


    big deal. Fortunately, Qian Yin spent some more time to include all the concubines of those men of the


    n, and then we found the problem," said Yun Shang.


    Luo Qingyan looked at Yun Shang curiously, "What problems?"

    Yun Shang smiled, "The maids in the pce can be released when they are twenty-five years old. But


    most of the maids who serve the concubines are not willing to leave the pce because they have


    already been first-ss maids and have a good life in the pce, and they are favored.


    But Cao Wenxi has been living in the imperial household for so many years, and the people around her


    have been changed one after another. Each of her maids chose to leave the pce after reaching the


    age of twenty-five. And they all became the concubines of the Cao n''s men after leaving the pce.


    "


    Yun Shang smiled coldly, "Even if the people in the Cao mansion have nothing to do with the Cao n,


    this alone is very unusual. Besides, I have found something else interesting. "


    "Yes? What is it? " asked Luo Qingyan.


    "A daughter of a coteral branch of the Cao n was sent to Xia Houjing as a concubine. Cao Zhan''s


    grandfather used to change his name, and his previous name was the same as that of a disciple from


    the coteral branch of the Cao n, " replied Yun Shang.


    Luo Qingyan smiled, "Cao Zhan''s grandfather?


    If my memory serves me right, Cao Zhan is already more than 40 years old? His grandfather should


    have died a long time ago. How did you find out something in that generation? "


    Yun Shang smiled, "When the spies were investigating, they copied a family tree of the Cao n, so I


    checked it carefully."


    Luo Qingyan nodded, "So the Cao n should be the branch of the former one, right? Perhaps Cao


    Zhan''s grandfather had changed his name for some unknown reason, so he escaped from the disaster.


    Later, Cao Wenxi found the branch on purpose, and she secretly supported it. "


    Yun Shang nodded and smiled, "To be honest, I really admire Cao Wenxi''s scheming. She changed her


    appearance and sent herself to the pce to have children with His Former Majesty. She also


    supported the branches of the Cao n and made it be one of the eight noble ns in the Jin


    City. She supported the survivors of the Cao n to be promoted to the golden pce. Now she even


    let them show up in front of you openly and want to put them on our side.


    If I were her at that moment, I''m afraid I wouldn''t be able to do that."


    Luo Qingyan pursed his lips and said, "You won''t end up like her."


    "You are right," Yun Shang answered smilingly, "After all, I still have your majesty."


    Luo Qingyan nodded without hesitation, "Yes, you have me."


    Then he added, "Since Cao Han is trying to get close to you, you can let him be. We can also see what


    they want to do. "
