Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 231

Yun Shang smiled and agreed. She lowered her head and looked at the map of the State of Xia.

Prince Jing's blood relatives must be in the State of Xia. He always pretended that he didn't care about Lord Hua Guo and treated him with indifference. However, when it came to taking his family as an enemy, she always felt sorry for him.

After she married Prince Jing, she was more and more shocked by his power. It had been twenty years since her father ascended the throne. If Prince Jing was determined to ascend the throne, the State of Ning would have long lost its surname. Prince Jing didn't mean to, but he just didn't want to. Even though the late emperor had only taught him for two or three years, he always felt that he had been very grateful to the late emperor, and he didn't want to be in a dilemma with his father.

Although he looked cold on the outside, he still felt warm in his heart.

But now, he had no choice but to be an enemy of his family.

Yun Shang smiled bitterly. In fact, she had always had a dream recently. In her dream, Prince Jing was wearing a dragon robe, and when the ministers kowtowed to him, she saw Lord Hua Guo and Xia Houjing.

Since this dream came to her mind, she always wondered what she would do if Prince Jing returned to the State of Xia one day? Emperor Ning kept silent for a while and said, "I have only one son, Chenxi. He is Shu Jin's son. If nothing goes wrong, the throne will belong to him sooner or later. However, I'm not young anymore and I don't know when it is a limitation. If I die, will you and Prince Jing spare no effort to assist Chenxi?"

Yun Shang's hands trembled for a short while. Then she said, "father, do you know that the Empress controlled the imperial household? She asked the Grand Councilor Li to replace all the guards in the palace. He also asked her to gather all the concubines to Jinluan Hall and threaten father."

Emperor Ning didn't know why Yun Shang brought this up. He nodded, "I know you've settled this."

Hearing this, Yun Shang smiled faintly. "It's said that a married daughter is like splashed water. It's just that the Empress has been married to his majesty for more than twenty years, right? She still treated herself as the daughter of the Li clan, but never treated her as a royal daughter-in-law. It turned out that the saying was wrong. I'm still his Majesty's daughter, and Chenxi's sister."

Yun Shang paused and continued, "I know that there are several generals on the side of father who are good at fighting. I don't know why father didn't use them, but I know it's not a good thing for father since Prince Jing has been cremated. If one day Prince Jing can't fight, I'm afraid that it will be public support that collapsed."

Emperor Ning took a deep look at Yun Shang, who had grown up beside him. The more he looked at her, the less he understood what kind of person she was. After a moment's silence, he said, "I see."

Yun Shang smiled and murmured to herself, "father, in this world, mother is the most important person in my life. Although I can't grow up by her side, my relationship with my mother is not as peaceful as any mother and daughter. On the contrary, just because I can't get it, I cherish it more when I get it. Mother is a good woman. I hope she can live a good life. Father, don't let her down."

The Emperor certainly knew what Yun Shang meant. When he arrived at temporary imperial palace of Laifeng City, he found that Lady Jin had many secret guards. He had his people investigate and found that they were all his daughters' men. At that time, she was shocked. She had been back for so long, but she did not realize that her daughter had such a strong power in the dark. Therefore, he held grudges against her. What worried him more was that she would hand these powers over to Prince Jing.

What she said just now was like a promise. She had promised that as long as Lady Jin lived a good life, at least she would not become his opponent.

"Of course." Emperor Ning turned his head and looked out of the window.

Yun Shang looked to the direction of the voice, and saw her mother walking towards the study. After a while, the door rang. Yun Shang opened the door and saw Lady Jin standing at the door. "What are you talking about? It's time for dinner."
