Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 1243

The gate of the the Xiangyi Palace was closed, and white flowers were still hanging on it. Two white lanterns were lit on the gate, and two guards were standing at the gate.

At the sight of Yun Zhang, the two imperial guards hurried to her and greeted her, "Your majesty."

Yun Zhang nodded and looked up at the three words on the plaque above the palace gate. After a moment of silence, she withdrew her gaze and said, "Open the gate. I'll go in and have a look."

The Royal Guard answered and opened the gate.

Yun Shang had been to the palace for several times. But when she stepped in again, she found that the palace was totally different from the one in her memory.

In her memory, the courtyard was full of all kinds of precious flowers and plants. But now it had already disappeared, and the soil on the ground seemed to have just been turned over.

"His majesty ordered to turn over the soil in the yard?"

Hearing Yun Zhang's question, the guard quickly replied, "Yes. After dealing with the funeral of Lady Li, his majesty ordered to dig out the yard. It was almost three feet deep, but nothing has been found."

"But his majesty has only sent people to dig in the yard, and the things in the palace are still the same. His majesty said that he would ask your majesty to have a look after you came back. "

Yun Shang nodded and walked in.

They passed through the messy yard and entered the main hall.

As soon as they entered the main hall, Yun Shang frowned again.

It made sense that the yard was totally different from before as Luo Qingyan has sent someone to turn the soil. But what happened to the main hall?

In the main hall of the Xiangyi Palace, the books, paintings and some precious ornaments were all gone. The hall was empty. There were only two large vases standing at the door, and several tables and chairs were placed in the hall.

Standing at the door of the palace, Yun Shang kept silent for a while. The scene that she was just reborn when she was eight years old and went to find her mother came to her mind. At that time, her mother lived in the Cold Palace, which was even more desolate than this.

She had lived such a luxurious life for a long time, and she forgot that there were always snobs in the palace.

Earlier, When Lady Li helped her deal with the imperial household affairs, all the servants flattered her and sent good things here.

Later, Lady Li made a mistake and was under house arrest. Many servants in the palace were dismissed. It was probably at that time that all the valuable things in the palace were taken away by the servants.

Yun Shang walked in and walked around the hall. The tables in the hall were covered with a thick layer of dust, as if they hadn't been wiped for a long time.

Yun Shang entered the inner hall. It was the same as the main hall. Except for some big items, there was almost no furnishing. It seemed that she could see everything in the hall at a glance.

Yun Shang glanced around the hall and moved her fingers in her sleeves.

Luo Qingyan said that Lady Li was a smart woman. She must have foreseen her ending after the maid entered the Xiangyi Palace. In that case, she must've left a way out for herself and hide the clue.

So, where would that thing be hidden?

The maid must have thought of this as well. She must have searched every corner of the hall.

Standing in the hall, Yun Shang closed her eyes for a while and wondered where she would hid it if she were her?

First, it should be a place within her sight every day. Only when she saw it every day did she know if anyone had moved it.
