Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 1151

Yun Shang got the tea from the servant and took a sip, "When did you come back from the frontier?"

"Twenty-four days ago."

Yun Shang calculated the time and asked, "Before you left the frontier, did you find that there were some suspicious people passing through the frontier and entering the military camp of the Yelang troops?"

"Yes." Zhao Yingjie nodded, "About a month and a half ago, there was a caravan of more than 10 people coming out of the Lingxi City and passing through our inspection post at the border.

When they passed the inspection post, they said that they were a trade group and lived at the border of the State of Xia and the State of Yelang. Because of their special living places, they often went between the two countries to do business of some special products of the two places.

I've sent someone to investigate about it, and I did find some scattered people at the place they said. Their names and ages were right, so I asked the frontier guards to release them.

But two or three days later, another trade team came. They also said that they lived there, and their names and ages were the same as those mentioned a few days ago. When I got the report, I felt strange. After investigation, it was confirmed that this caravan behind was the real one.

I right away sent someone to investigate the whereabouts of the former caravan. We found they had gone to the camp of the State of Yelang after passing the border."

Yun Shang narrowed her eyes and said, "It's true as I expected."

Hearing Yun Shang's words, Zhao Yingjie couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Your majesty, do you know the background of those who pretended to be the trade group before?"

"I don't know. I just doubt it. His majesty and I suspect that Xia Houjing colluded with Cangjue Qingsu again,"

Yun Shang pursed her lips and said, "No, we can't say they colluded with each other again. Perhaps, from the beginning till now, Xia Houjing and Cangjue Qingsu have never been cut off from each other. But before this, they both have been defeated by us and each of them has retreated. We thought that their alliance had been broken up because of this failure. But I didn't expect that they are still in touch."

Zhao Yingjie snorted, "They are not reconciled to their defeat. They are still so wild with their ambition."

"Admit defeat? If they were so easy to reconcile to their defeat, how could it be called ambition?" Yun Shang smiled, "It's not difficult to understand. The enemy's enemy is friend. They two are both enemies with us, so it's normal for them to become friends. Besides, for them, the crime of collusion with the enemy country and treason has been committed. There is no difference between once and twice, or even countless times."

Zhao Yingjie frowned and said, "If so, I should have returned to the frontier earlier."

Yun Shang's smile widened, "You don't have to rush back in such a short time. If we can defeat them once, we can defeat them for a second time, countless times, and then completely defeat them. I am thinking about handling the marriage between you and Qin Yi since you are back."

Zhao Yingjie's cold and hard face suddenly flushed. He lowered his eyes and said, "Qin Yi works for your majesty. You can make decisions for her."

"Now that you said so, I'll ask someone to find an auspicious good day and deal with your wedding," with a smile on her face, Yun Shang said, "I trust Qin Yi very much. If you marry her, you must treat her well. If I know you treat her badly, I won't spare you."
