Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 1493

Everyone hurried into the hall with Yun Shang. Pei Lan said to Yun Shang, "Your Highness, the woman who disguised as you arranged by His Majesty looks exactly the same as you in terms of expression and movement, but she is a fake anyway. Some of her preferences and subtle movements are still different. But only I and Hua'er found the subtle differences because we have been taking care of you for a long time. No one else knows.

At first, we thought something had happened to you, but the woman probably sensed that we had figured out she was a fake, so she took the initiative to admit it. She said that His Majesty and you had gone out of the palace to investigate the avalanche in Qi Mountain.

I didn't think too much at that time. I just thought that you had mentioned it before and suspected that the avalanche in Qi Mountain was a man-made accident. Xia Houjing launched a rebellion yesterday, and that woman helped us find a way to stabilize the imperial household." Yun Shang nodded. The person arranged by Luo Qingyan was undoubtedly very meticulous.

Yun Shang whispered, "Did anyone come to ask to meet me yesterday? Before the news of Xia Houjing's attack arrived? Especially people who don't usually come to the palace for meetings, but suddenly asked for a meeting with me?"

Pei Lan and Hua'er looked at each other. They didn't know why Yun Shang asked this question, but they thought about it carefully for a moment and said, "People who don't usually come here but yesterday came..."

Seeing that Pei Lan didn't remember, Hua'er immediately said, "I remember!"

"Steward Zhou from the Imperial Library."

"Steward Zhou from the Imperial Library?" Yun Shang squinted her eyes. She remembered this man. "His name is Zhou Gao. Another steward of the Imperial Library poisoned and tried to murder Her Former Majesty. I went to the Imperial Library specially and asked Steward Zhou some questions.

At that time, I felt that this person was really interesting. He wanted to form a romantic pairing with Steward Wang, but they ended up having a grudge against each other because of this. He was targeted by Steward Wang, but he took himself out of that matter. Later, after I left, a eunuch close to him asked why I went to the Imperial Library and Steward Zhou helped me make up an excuse, saying that I went to find a book."

Yun Shang tapped her fingers on the table and said, "I thought that Steward Zhou was really a smart man.

Unfortunately, we are not on the same side. The smarter he is, the more annoying he will be."

"You are not on the same side?" Both Pei Lan and Hua'er were surprised. "Your Highness, do you mean that Steward Zhou..."

But Yun Shang didn't answer their questions immediately. She just asked, "What was Steward Zhou doing here?"

"Steward Zhou said that when he was sorting out the books in the Imperial Library, he found that Weiyang Palace had borrowed two books and hadn't returned them, so he came to ask."

Hearing what Pei Lan said, Yun Shang smiled, "He's here to find out whether it's me or not in the palace."

Yun Shang pressed her lips and asked, "What did the woman who was arranged by His Majesty and pretended to be me say?"

Hearing Yun Shang's words, both Pei Lan and Hua'er were stunned. Then, Pei Lan reacted quickly and seemed tobe relieved. "That's lucky..." "Lucky?"

Pei Lan nodded, "At that time, before Steward Zhou came to Weiyang Palace, we just found that the woman was not Your Highness, and she had just confessed her identity to us. As soon as we finished talking, Steward Zhou came.

That woman said she was not you. Although she could deal with the affairs in the palace, she could only barely deal with them. Since her identity had been exposed, we could help her cover her up. Therefore, before she heard that Steward Zhou came to see her, she asked us what Steward Zhou was in charge of and what interaction he had with you.
