Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 1051

"The fifteenth Princess has been out of the palace recently?" Yun Shang looked sideways at Qian Zhuo with confusion in her eyes.

Qian Zhuo nodded and said gently, "On the first and fifteenth of the lunar new year, the fifteenth Princess would go out of the palace to pray in the temples outside the city. Because she is a princess, the guards of the palace generally let her pass."

"To pray in the temple on the days of the first and the fifteenth of the lunar new year? Huh... " Yun Shang smiled, but her eyes were cold, "She doesn't seem to be that kind of persons who have such a habit. Send someone to the palace gate to inquire about it. Try to find out whether she has always had this habit, or she has just developed it recently."

Qian Zhuo nodded in a hurry. Yun Shang looked at Qian Zhuo and said indifferently, "I've investigated the two palaces and tried to find if there were any servants who have been out of the palace recently. I forgot about the fifteenth Princess. Since the fifteenth Princess could freely enter and leave the court, it was possible that Cao Shanxiu was sending messages to the outside through the fifteenth Princess. To pray is most likely an excuse for her. What a coincidence it was when she just went out of the Imperial Palace and met the accident that Ming Qian's brother was being chased by the people from the gambling shop."

However, there was one thing that Yun Shang didn't understand. Logically speaking, even for the sake of Xia Houjing's mother, Lady Cao might think of a way to help the seventh Prince, but why did she try so hard to court the servants around Lady Li. If Xia Huanyu was still the Emperor, it could be understood that she was making trouble for Lady Li in order to win favor for herself. But now there was no such thing as competing for favor between both of them, and neither of them had a son. Why did Lady Cao take great pains to deal with Lady Li?

At first, Lady Cao said that when Lady Li was dealing with the imperial household affairs for Yun Shang, she would take the opportunity to steal the seal of Yun Shang on a blank paper. As a result, Yun Shang paid special attention to Lady Li.

Then, Ming Qian delivered a family letter to the guard of the imperial guards on behalf of Lady Li, but was discovered by the secret guard. According to the clues available now, it was very likely that Lady Cao took the opportunity to order Ming Qian to do so on purpose.

After that, although Yun Shang received the news from the secret guards, she didn't move. Then, Ming Qian suddenly died in her own room. Judging from the scene, it seemed that she had committed suicide. The broken pieces of letters in her room were from the same letter, but there seemed to be two copies. The first one was like Hua Ling's instructions to Lady Li. From the content of the pieces, it seemed that Hua Ling said Yun Shang was infertile and wanted to choose a concubine for Luo Qingyan. The second one was only half of a private seal, but she didn't know what it was.

Yun Shang slightly narrowed her eyes. She found It was strange that Ming Qian died three days after she sent a letter secretly.

Yun Shang thought it over carefully, and felt that the purpose of Lady Cao's manipulation of this matter was just to attract her attention.

While Yun Shang was thinking, another secret guard came to report, "Your majesty, in a remote alley in the west of the city, there was a seal engraving shop. The owner said that someone had privately carved this seal on the first day of July. The person was a woman. She dressed like a maid. She was wearing a pink dress and the fabric was good. The storekeeper said that he couldn't recognize the words on the seal, so he had a deep impression on it."

"The first day of July," Yun Shang repeated the time in a louder voice.
