Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 1388

This move might not be able to make people take the initiative to join into their camp, but at least it would have a certain deterrence effect.

Then, they could slowly add some fuel to the fire, and some people would be unable to bear it.

Yun Shang smiled. Although she and Luo Qingyan had made up their minds to start with Xia Houjing and Cangjue Qingsu, the Cao clan must be removed as well.

Otherwise how could they allow others to covet by their side?

When Yun Shang arrived at Weiyang Palace, she saw that everything there was burnt beyond recognition.

"During the year I stayed in the Weiyang Palace, it was burnt by fire twice. The name Weiyang' means peace, joy, no disaster, no trouble but with boundless happiness. But in fact, it's not as auspicious as its name indicates.

I have to change the name of Weiyang Palace after it is repaired."

Qian Zhuo was standing by the side. She smiled, "What kind of name do you want to change for the Weiyang Palace then?"

Yun Shang thought for a while and then replied, "The name Weiyang came from two lines in the Book of Songs: What time is it now at night? It's still early; it's not light yet. Weiyang means the night is not over. I'll call it Samson palace. "

The Zhaoyang Palace sounds very good."

Yun Shang smiling stood in the yard, watching the servants move out the things that had not been burnt inside the palace from time to time.

After a while, Yun Shang saw Pei Lan walk out of the ruins of the main hall quickly.

"I'm packing up in the palace. I didn't come out until I heard that your Majesty is here," explained Pei Lan. Her dress was full of black smoke stains. She quickly reported, "Your majesty, someone has secretly come to Weiyang Palace to look for something."

Yun Shang squinted, "What happened?"

"As there were fires in many places in the palace, it was already midnight when we extinguished all the fires last night. The servants were then asked to keep an eye on them in case the fire would be rekindled again at night. We planned to wait for the day to clear them up. But just now when I was looking though the things, I found that many things in your majesty's bedroom seemed to have been moved by someone earlier." Yun Shang thought for a moment and then asked, "Did it happen when they were putting out the fire yesterday? Or did something fall and move them when the fire was on? "

Pei Lan shook her head, "Yesterday, though the fire in Weiyang Palace was not small, the beams and roof of Weiyang Palace were specially reinforced when it was repaired after the fire last time. Yesterday, the beams and roof were blackened by the smoke, but they did not collapse. It should not cause too much movement of things. At most, some fragile things were broken by falling things.

What's more, by saying that there are traces of things being touched, I don't mean that some things are not in their original positions," Pei Lan said in a low voice, "Although we didn't clean it up immediately after we put out the fire yesterday, I still went in to have a check. Today, when I went in, however, I found that there were some footprints on the floor that I didn't see last night.

The vases on the bookshelf as well as at the door of the room were all blackened last night, and today several fingerprints were seen on the necks of the vases."

Hearing this, Yun Shang couldn't help squinting, "The footprints can be understood, but it's strange that there are fingerprints on the vases." "Yes." Pei Lan nodded, "Even if people put out the fire or packed up things, it's impossible to for them to look into every vase, right?"

Yun Shang thought for a while and asked, "except for the vase, what else has been touched?"

"The bookshelf has been touched the most. Some books that your majesty seldom read before were placed in different order.
