The maid in blue thought for a while, but she shook her head in confusion. "I... I really don't remember. It's been too long. "
"She met her." A maid in green said.
"Oh?" Yun Shang looked at the maid and asked, "Do you remember?"
"It occurred to me that Lady Li had met Steward Wang from the Imperial Library the day when she was wearing the dress, and it was not in the morning when she met other stewards."
"Then when was it?"
The maid in green answered in a low voice, "It should be in the afternoon. When her highness was about to take a nap after taking off her outer clothes, Steward Wang came, saying that she had found a book that her highness asked for before."
"I was going to take the book in and send her away. But Lady Li heard the voice of Steward Wang. She ordered me to invite Steward Wang and asked me to leave. The two of them talked for about a quarter of an hour before Steward Wang left. "
Yun Shang tugged at the embroidered handkerchief in her hand and asked, "Do you know which book it is?" "I don't know."
Yun Shang nodded and waved the two away.
Maybe the colors Wang Wenxiang said didn't mean that there were something hidden in Lady Li's clothes. But the colors of the clothes Lady Li was wearing when she met Wang Wenxiang.
After all, the question she asked Wang Wenxiang yesterday was if she still remembered Lady Li.
Yun Shang frowned, depressed.
She had thought that she could find something, but it turned out that she didn't find anything.
Hua'er took a look at Yun Shang and asked in a low voice, "Your majesty, do you still want to check the clothes inside?"
"No."
Yun Shang shook her head and said, "Let's go back."
Along the way, Yun Shang was thinking about it. She had found out the secret of the four colors.
But what did the next sentence mean? Spring and autumn... Short, long... What did she mean? Did it also have something to do with Lady Li?
In spring? In autumn? What did short and long mean?
In the end, she asked about the maid who had escaped from the Palace after killing Lady Li. Wang Wenxiang talked something like a chant. What did that mean?
Yun Shang rubbed her forehead and felt a splitting headache.
She didn't sleep well last night because of the rain. In addition, all kinds of thoughts were intertwined back and forth in her mind, making her mind messy.
Seeing Yun Shang rubbing her forehead, Pei Lan said in a low voice, "Your majesty, you'd better have a rest first. There are very few clues about this case, and I'm afraid you won't be able to figure it out in a short time. It's useless to force yourself to think about it. You'll be more efficient after having a good rest. "
Yun Shang felt dizzy. She nodded and lay down on the bed.
But she couldn't fall asleep. Maybe it was because she was thinking something in her mind, or just because the weather was too hot.
