Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 1055

Yun Shang nodded in agreement. Things had gradually come 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 complicated. She would definitely not let any extra story happen to it.

"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 Palace 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 Palace. 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 Palace. 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 palace 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 placed 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 would come 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 Liu coming 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 accident, 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 blame 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 Palace?"

Cao Shanxiu waved her hands and said, "It's not a big deal. Our palace is not far from the Weiyang Palace. 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.
