An Eight-year-old Princess

Chapter 1384 No More Worries

"He has run away?"

in the Taiji Palace, Yun Shang leaned against the couch and asked Luo Qingyan with a smile. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

"Yes, he's run away."

Luo Qingyan took the sachet from his waist and played with it, "I've ordered the secret guards to chase

after him about a quarter of an hour later. He will have completely disappeared then."

Yun Shang nodded and kept silent for a while. Then she asked, "Is there any news from the Cao

mansion?"

"After the Weiyang Palace was burnt down, the news was spread to the Cao mansion. Old Lady Cao

summoned her sons to have a meeting in the study for about four hours. Later, the butler of the Cao

mansion went in again. I think it's because he got the news that Xia Houjing has escaped."

Yun Shang smiled, "The Cao clan must know that we have been suspicious of them. I'm afraid that

they won't go to look for Xia Houjing for the time being after hearing the news."

Luo Qingyan didn't take it seriously at all. He replied, "It doesn't matter whether they will go to find him

or not. With your poison in his body, I am sure Xia Houjing will definitely have a hard time."

With that, Luo Qingyan seemed to think of something, so he asked, "By the way, when will that poison

take effect?"

"One day after he is poisoned. Once his unstable mood swings begins, the poison will show its effect.

When this happens, he can't control his temper. He will become violent and have infinite power.

Sometimes he will even have an illusion and become very murderous."

Luo Qingyan nodded and smiled, "I just wonder when Xia Houjing will realize that he is poisoned.

When Xia Houjing comes to his senses, it will be very interesting."

"Alas, if I had thought of this method earlier, he would have been this way now. It is better to let Xia

Houjing go than to worry that he would become a time bomb and that there would be trouble if he was

removed. Actually, as long as we have something in hand to control him, he will never be able to get

out of our hands. "

"Yes, your majesty is smart." Luo Qingyan smiled and then he continued, "Now that Weiyang Palace is

burnt down, your majesty can rest assured to live in the Taiji Palace. It's getting late now. Your majesty,

you'd better go to bed early. Let me serve the Empress in bed..."

Yun Shang darted him a glance and stood up, "I have to take a bath. Because of today's fire in the

Weiyang Palace, however, all my clothes have been burnt away. The Shangyi Bureau has to make new

clothes for me before the night is out. I'm afraid they won't be able to make it until tomorrow at the

earliest. "

"It doesn't matter." Luo Qingyan's eyes lit up. "You can wear my clothes first."

"……" Yun Shang had planned to send someone to get her a dress for the maid.

Luo Qingyan seemed to understand what Yun Shang was thinking, "The maid's clothes are still not

comfortable enough. I have many clothes that I haven't worn at all. Although they are a little bigger, it

doesn't matter. You will just need to wear them for one night anyway. The Shangyi Bureau will send

new clothes here tomorrow morning."

Seeing Luo Qingyan look so excited, Yun Shang swallowed the words on the tip of her tongue.

Luo Qingyan stood up, opened the suitcase and looked for clothes. "Come on, I'll pick a dress for you

myself. Although the Empress is a natural beauty, the dress I choose will certainly make you more

beautiful."

Yun Shang looked at Luo Qingyan coldly, snorted but said nothing.

Soon, Luo Qingyan got the clothes ready, but he didn't show them to Yun Shang. He only took Yun

Shang into the bathroom behind, but they didn't stay and entered another door in the bathroom.

There was a warm spring inside. "I'm afraid you must be very tired after staying up so late. It's good to

have a good bath in it."

Then he turned to Yun Shang, "Let me help your majesty take off the clothes?"

Yun Shang glared at Luo Qingyan and replied, "Your Majesty, please don't bother. Please go out first.

I'll get ready soon soon. Please help me call in Qian Zhuo and Pei Lan."

Of course Luo Qingyan wouldn't follow Yun Shang's idea. Seeing that Yun Shang refused to cooperate

with him, he said nothing but held Yun Shang's hand and jumped into the pool with her.

Yun Shang was shocked and screamed. When she came to her senses, she was already in the pool,

and the water spread from all directions. Yun Shang felt panic and subconsciously stretched out her

hands to try to grab something, but she was lifted up by Luo Qingyan.

"Luo Qingyan!"

Yun Shang shouted angrily, but she heard Luo Qingyan laugh loudly.

Yun Shang pinched Luo Qingyan's arm, but her knitted brows began to smooth gradually. As soon as

she stood firm in the pool, she raised her hand to wipe off the water on her face, but another hand

reached out and blocked her eyesight.

Yun Shang raised her hand but only touched Luo Qingyan's. when she was about to push away the

hand, she felt something pressing on her lips...

Early the second morning, when Yun Shang woke up, the sun was already bright. She opened her

eyes and saw it was all golden everywhere. The Dragon embroidered on the bed sheet was flying in

the clouds. Yun Shang gazed at the dragon for a long time before she realized that she was in the Taiji

Palace.

Yun Shang opened the bed tent and wanted to call for help when she heard someone talking from the

outer hall.

Judging from the voice, it should be Luo Qingyan and Ling Ziyue.

Yun Shang sat on the bed for a while before she came to her senses. The stuff they had taken

yesterday was jointly made by people from the State of Youyue and Ministry of Works. Now that the

accident happened, according to their plan, today they should call Ling Ziyue here.

At least, they had to pretend to be very angry and blame others.

Since there was an outsider, it was inconvenient for Yun Shang to go out. She sat in the hall and

looked around, only to see clothes and jewelry on a stool nearby.

Yun Shang paused for a moment and then picked up the clothes.

They should be sent here early in the morning by the Shangyi Bureau.

Yun Shang changed her clothes, made a simple bun, and put on a hairpin. Then she walked to the

door of the inner hall.

"Your Highness, you should be smart enough to know why I did this." Luo Qingyan's voice was calm,

but also cold, "After this incident, I will work together with his highness to open the southeast door of

the State of Xia and go on an expedition into the world."

"Hahaha!" Ling Ziyue was also very happy, "Your Majesty is really smart, far sighted and insightful.

It's not that I didn't think about cooperating with the State of Yelang, or... other forces in your state. After

a few rounds of comparison, I think your majesty is the best choice, no matter in your vision, ambition,

or strategy.

I will only cooperate with the most capable person. Of course, I will never let your majesty regret.

Please believe me. I'll do my best to cooperate with your majesty this time. Your majesty, I am sure

we'll have no more worries when both external and internal troubles are eliminated. "
