Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 1138

Yun Shang paused.

Liu Wenan stood there with his head down. He didn't hear Yun Shang's words for a long time. He raised his head in confusion and asked, "Your majesty?"

Yun Shang seemed to come to her senses all of a sudden. "Yes, I have something to ask you. It's about the imperial edict."

"I've only show you the imperial edict announced by you this morning. But I heard that there were rumors outside the Palace this morning when the court was still in progress. It's said that I poisoned his majesty, forged the imperial edict, and granted Chengye the title of the crown prince and that I would assistant to deal with the state affairs."

Liu Wenan was stunned.

Yun Shang said it so clearly that he knew what she meant.

"Your majesty, I have never told anyone about the imperial edict. I don't know why there are such rumors outside."

"Oh? Really? " Yun Shang glanced at Liu Wenan.

After a moment's silence, Liu Wenan continued, "But, after I left the Weiyang Palace, I went to his former majesty."

Seeing that Yun Shang was looking at him quietly, Liu Wenan couldn't help explaining, "I'm not suspecting your majesty. I just think that his majesty is in a coma now, so such an important thing should be reported to his former majesty. Even it's not necessary to ask for his opinion, we should at least let him know."

Yun Shang smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for your concern, Lord Liu. But as you said, we should inform his former majesty of such a big matter. I have already told his former majesty about it when his majesty was just poisoned."

"Yes." Lord Liu lowered his hand and said, "His former majesty has told me. I was being overthinking."

"I'm not blaming you, but the rumors outside this morning are really strange. Few people knew about the imperial edict. Lord Liu, think it over. Except for his former majesty, who else has the chance to know about it?"

Frowning, Liu Wenan thought for a while and shook his head. "When I reported this to his former majesty, no one else was there."

After saying that, he paused with some hesitation.

Yun Shang sensed something wrong from her hesitation. "What's wrong? Lord Liu, do you remember anything?"

Liu Wenan raised his eyes slightly and said, "When I came out of the hall after reporting it to his former majesty, I saw the crown prince running out from behind. Following him were several servants of her former majesty's."

Yun Shang squinted, "What do you mean?"

"I suppose that when I came out of the palace, his highness came out from behind the hall. So when I reported to his former majesty, he must be playing behind the hall with his servants. If someone who was good at martial arts among the servants around the crown prince sneaked into the inner hall to eavesdrop, I and his former majesty may not find it." Liu Wenan frowned slightly, but soon calmed down. "However, although I only glanced at those servants yesterday, I was able to accurately recognize them. If they really eavesdropped on the content of the imperial edict and spread it out, it would be easy to find out the culprit."

"Of course we need to find such a person. He is hard to rest assured whether he is in the company or by the side of the empress."

Yun Shang knocked on the table with her fingers and said, "Since they are the people around his former majesty and her former majesty, let them deal with it. Go and report this to his formal majesty."

"Yes." After replying, Liu Wenan asked in confusion, "Your majesty, don't you want to have a look?"
