Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 1118

Yun Shang restrained her smile and said, "Interesting. They submit the such memorials at this time. Just when we are suspecting that there were some hidden secrets in those places, they recommended themselves to go to those places."

"Liu Cang, Siyang and Nanyang, are now in chaos because they have just experienced the riot. Normally, officials would definitely be unwilling to these places, but they even recommended themselves. It's really strange."

Yun Shang bit her lips and asked, "Who submitted the memorials?"

"Vice Minister..." Luo Qingyan mentioned several officials in a row.

Yun Shang frowned and said, "A few days ago, I asked someone to carefully investigate the ex grand tutor, Ling Hai, as well as all his students and friends. The people your majesty just mentioned are all included."

Luo Qingyan nodded, "In this case, these two things are connected."

Yun Shang blinked her eyes and said, "They tried their best to go to those places when others were eager to avoid it. They even gave you several memorials at the same time. Even a fool would find it odd, wouldn't he? I don't think they really want to clean those places. They just want to use this method to attract your majesty's attention."

'Xia Houjing's people must have known that I have investigated the Ling Hai. It seems that they want us to just focus on Ling Hai. I'm wondering what they are planning."

Luo Qingyan nodded, "A fox will eventually show its tail.

Yun Shang smiled, "Are we going to see Xia Houjing today?"

"Yes." Luo Qingyan said with a smile, "Maybe they are trying to test my reaction by doing so. Since Xia Houjing is the person behind the scenes, I should go to see him so as to know what he is going to do."

Yun Shang frowned and said, "But Xia Houjing is locked up in the private prison. I don't think he knows what happened outside, right?"

"Not necessarily."

Hearing this, Yun Shang suddenly looked up at Luo Qingyan and asked, "Your Majesty, do you think that Xia Houjing is still connected with the outside world? But... Xia Houjing is under the watch of our trusted guards. How could he..."

Luo Qingyan raised his hand and touched Yun Shang's hair. He pursed his lips and said, "We can only say that all the people who are guarding are our trusted ones. But Xia Houjing wasn't in our hands before."

Yun Shang's hands trembled slightly. Xia Houjing was indeed not in their hands before, but in... In the hands of Xia Huanyu.

"But, his former majesty..."

Xia Huanyu wouldn't do that, would he?

After all, it was not good for the State of Xia to keep Xia Houjing in touch with the outside world and bring Xia Houjing back to life. Although Xia Huanyu might not like her and Luo Qingyan, he would never risk the State of Xia.

"I trust his former majesty now." Luo Qingyan knew what Yun Shang was thinking at a glance. "But the people around his former majesty are complex. Xia Houjing has a deep foundation in the State of Xia and had had support from Lady Cao, so it's not completely impossible for him to arrange one or two people around his former majesty."

Yun Shang nodded, but frowned, "If that's the case, then things will become a little troublesome."

Then she raised her head quickly and said, "How about we transfer Xia Houjing to another place and imprison him?"
