Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 1421

After entering the door, Liu Man said, "This is my master. She has something to ask you."

The two men looked at each other and said nothing.

Yun Shang lowered her eyes, took out a secret letter from her sleeve and unfolded it. She only showed the bottom part to the two people.

At the bottom of the letter was a private seal of Luo Qingyan.

The two men's eyes fell on the private seal, and there was a flash of surprise in their eyes. They quickly knelt down.

Yun Shang still didn't say anything. She took out another letter and showed it to the two.

"Is it your master who wrote this letter?"

The two men looked at each other in surprise, but they still didn't say anything.

But Yun Shang got the answer she wanted from the reaction of the two of them. "You are spies here. You must keep in touch with your master through letters. I think you can recognize your master's handwriting, right?

Now that I have come to you and guessed who your master is, I can probably guess why you are here. But I'm curious that the Wu Er'he City is just a small city, so if your master wants to attack the city, he only needs you to investigate the terrain around the city, the layout of the houses and streets, and the defense arrangement of the entire city...

You don't need to investigate these things for more than a month, but you have stayed here for so long that you almost exposed your whereabouts."

Yun Shang smiled, "In fact, I'm more curious about what you are investigating and what means you have used so that you have made yourselves exposed."

The two looked at each other, and one of them walked two steps forward on his knees. "Our master indeed asked us to check the terrain, street layout and city defense. He said that winter would come soon. Once winter comes, the whole State of Yelang will be very scarce of resources. Many merchants of the State of Yelang are trying to buy some supplies from the State of Xia and send them to the State of Yelang. If we cut off the commercial path of the State of Yelang by taking over the Wu Er'he City, the whole people of the State of Yelang will be greatly affected this winter.

But when we were inquiring about this, we found that one of the concubines of the king of the State of Yelang is in the city. And according to our inquiry, she has lived in the city for three or four months with the youngest son of the king of the State of Yelang."

"Three or four months?" Yun Shang thought for a while, turned around and asked Liu Man, "When did we take over the city in front of the Wu Er'he City?"

"About half a year ago."

Yun Shang nodded. Half a year ago, the Wu Er'he City had become the border city of the State of Yelang. It had been three or four months since Cangjue Qingsu's concubine and his youngest son came to the city.

They almost set out after the news that the Wu Er'he City had become the border city of the State of Yelang was spread to the imperial capital city, right?

"Although she is just a concubine of the king of the State of Yelang, she has great prestige in the whole State of Yelang. One reason is that her father holds most of the military power of the State of Yelang, and the second reason is that she gave birth to two princes, which is unique among the concubines of Cangjue Qingsu. The third reason is that this concubine is extremely capable.

She not only has great prestige in the State of Yelang, but also Cangjue Qingsu trusts her very much."

Hearing this, Yun Shang couldn't help laughing. "It's not necessarily trust. If the concubine's family holds military power, Cangjue Qingsu trusts her on the surface, but secretly, he is afraid of her.
