After a few glances, Yun Shang suddenly closed the imperial edict again, and her face turned pale.
"I can't accept this imperial edict."
As Yun Shang said this, she quickly rolled up the imperial edict and put it back into the brocade box.
When she was about to close the box, Luo Qingyan held Yun Shang's hand.
"Take it. This is a gift from your father. Your father is worried that you will be wronged in the State of Xia and that I can't protect you well."
Yun Shang raised her eyes and glared at Luo Qingyan. Her eyes were full of helplessness. "Nonsense. I'm the Empress of the State of Xia. How can I be the Crown Princess of the State of Ning? Won't it be discussed if the news spreads?"
"Only the two of us know about it. How could it be spread? Just find a suitable place to keep it. If I have nothing to worry about, I will protect you well. But if something happens to me, this is your amulet."
"What are you talking about?" Yun Shang frowned, "Nothing will happen to you. How could you curse yourself like this?"
Luo Qingyan lowered his eyes and chuckled, "Okay, it's my fault. I shouldn't have cursed myself like this. Let's talk about Chengye. As the two of us are in this position, there will always be times when we have no choice, and sometimes we can't take care of Chengye. With this thing, the status of Chengye in the State of Ning will also be different. At that time, even if he is sent to the State of Ning, he can get good protection."
Yun Shang thought for a moment and nodded. "Well, since you said so, I'll put it away first. I just hope that I don't need to use it in my life."
"Of course."
Yun Shang closed the box, bit her lips and said, "My Weiyang Palace was burnt last night, and I can't find a place to put it..."
Luo Qingyan chuckled, "Then put it here."
That was just what Yun Shang wanted, so she handed the box to Luo Qingyan. Luo Qingyan took it and walked to the bookshelf aside. He moved away the books on the top of the bookshelf, took out the board, put the box under it, and then put the books on the bookshelf one by one.
Yun Shang stood aside and looked at him with a smile. When she was about to speak, she heard Liu Wenan's voice from outside. "Your majesty, Prince Xian had someone send a birthday gift to you."
Yun Shang was stunned, but she looked at Luo Qingyan subconsciously. Luo Qingyan also raised his eyebrows and said with a faint smile, "Prince Xian has always been under the watch of the secret guards. I don't know when he has sent someone to send you the birthday gift. Tsk..."
Yun Shang smiled and was in a good mood. She raised her voice and said, "Bring it in."
Liu Wenan walked in quickly with a box made of sandalwood.
Yun Shang took the box and opened it. There was a bracelet in it, but it was different from other bracelets. It was made of gold nor silver, nor copper or jade. From the appearance, it seemed that it was carved from wood. On the bracelet, there was a phoenix carrying a branch of plum blossoms.
There was a piece of paper under the bracelet, which was written by Liu Yinfeng. He said, "I heard that this kind of wood could smooth nerves, so I specially carved a bracelet for you. I hope you could like it. Take good care of yourself."
Yun Shang put away the letter and put the bracelet on.
