Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 1060

Yun Shang stopped and turned to Ning Qian, "What did you say? She have a disguise on her face? "

Seeing Yun Shang's expression, Ning Qian knew that Yun Shang didn't know about it. She nodded and said, "Yes, I found it by accident. I've tried many ways, but I found that the disguise on Lady Cao's face is nowhere to be found. I've also used the medicine to wash her disguise, but it's useless."

"Then how did you find her disguise?" Yun Shang frowned and asked.

Ning Qian smiled and said, "Once, she was in my palace. We talked about the recent pearl hairpins, and I took out some hairpins to let her see if she had a favorite style. The servant accidentally cut a small wound on her forehead with the hairpin, and I found that she was wearing a fake face."

Yun Shang's mind was racing, and her expression was changing. If Cao Shanxiu was not the real Cao Shanxiu, who would she be?

Yun Shang thought carefully about the things that could be connected with Cao Shanxiu, and had a guess in her heart.

Yun Shang turned to look at Ning Qian and stared at Ning Qian for a long time. Ning Qian touched her face and asked in confusion, "Why are you looking at me like that, master?"

Looking at the disguise on Ning Qian's face, Yun Shang touched her face and asked, "Do you think Cao Shanxiu can recognize your disguise when you appeared in front of her?"

Ning Qian thought for a while and nodded, "She is good at disguise, so she can find it at a glance."

Yun Shang nodded thoughtfully, threw the brocade handkerchief on the ground, and turned around to walk back with Ning Qian. "After you enter the room, it's all my people. Remove the disguise on your face, and then go to the private prison with me."

Ning Qian didn't know why Yun Shang arranged this, but she agreed. As soon as she returned to her room, she quickly removed her disguise and went to the private prison with Yun Shang again. Cao Shanxiu raised her head and looked at the two. When her eyes fell on Ning Qian, her expression changed obviously. But Yun Shang ignored it and ordered the secret guards, "My brocade handkerchief is missing. Check to see if it fell here just now."

The secret guard answered in a hurry. He had searched for a long time in the private prison, but did not find the brocade handkerchief that Yun Shang had mentioned. Hearing the secret guard's report, Yun Shang frowned and waved her hand. She sighed, "Forget it. I'll look for it somewhere else."

Then Yun Shang left the prison with Ning Qian.

Ning Qian was confused, "Master, what are you doing this for?"

Yun Shang smiled, "Since you saw her disguise before, she was naturally afraid. Before that, she might not know that you work for me. Of course, I would show her. Then she will be worried that I will find out the secret of her disguise. If that secret is very important, I don't believe that she will not do anything. As long as she makes a move, I will have the chance to find evidence to prove that what I think is right. Even if she didn't do anything, I will cheat her again tomorrow to make her think that I have collected the evidence..."

When the two of them returned to Weiyang Palace, Yun Shang walked to the couch and sat down. She reached out for the teacup that Qian Zhuo handed to her. Then she looked up at Ning Qian and asked, "You just said, what's wrong with Xia Houjing?"

Ning Qian also sat on the chair. She frowned and said, "A letter from Yang Liu Town said that Xia Houjing is seriously ill. The secret guards couldn't find out whether it was true or not, so they had to send a message back as soon as possible and wanted to ask master what to do with it."

"Xia Houjing is seriously ill?" Yun Shang looked surprised.

"Yes, the doctor His Former Majesty and Xia Houjing called happened to be working in the hospital where our spy was. He also went as an assistant. The doctor said that Xia Houjing's condition was very serious." Ning Qian replied softly.

Yun Shang nodded slightly, lost in thought, and murmured, "How come he is seriously ill? It's hard not to arouse suspicion."

Biting her lips, Yun Shang looked up and ordered Ning Qian, "Keep an eye on them. Don't let go of any stranger entering the town. Maybe Xia Houjing's people are planing to rescue. This is our chance."

Ning Qian smiled, "Well, I'm going to Yang Liu Town in person."

Yun Shang was surprised. She looked at Ning Qian and thought for a while. Then she shook her head and said, "You just gave birth to a baby. How can the baby leave you? You don't need to worry about it. I will ask someone to investigate it."

Ning Qian nodded and told Yun Shang something else before leaving the palace.

Yun Shang took a sip of tea and knocked on the armrest of the chair. Then she looked up at Qian Zhuo and said, "Send a message to Qian Yin and ask her to go to Yang Liu Town."

Qian Zhuo bowed to Yun Shang and left.

Yun Shang sat quietly in the chair and drank up the tea in the cup. Qian Liu went up to refill Yun Shang's cup. Then Yun Shang told Qian Liu, "Ask Pei Lan to Shangyi Bureau to call Yu Nian here."

Qian Liu bowed and left the inner hall. She told Pei Lan in a low voice, but she didn't come in for a long time. There was a faint sound of talking outside. After a while, Qian Liu opened the curtain and came in. Yun Shang looked up at Qian Liu, "What's wrong?"

Qian Liu smiled, "The Imperial Household Department sent someone here, saying that the weather was getting colder and they have prepared some new charcoal for you."
