Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 244

When Yun Shang arrived at General Qi's Mansion, the gate of General Qi's Mansion was closed. A cold light flashed in her eyes. She asked Qian Yin to open the gate for her with the invitation letter.

"Who is it?" An impatient voice came from inside and the door was opened. The doorman was a little stunned when he saw so many people outside. "Who are you?"

"She is the wife of Prince Jing. we are here by the order of the Emperor. Call General Qi over!" There was no smile on Qian Yin's face. She was more like a servant girl who appeared to be arrogant.

The servant was surprised at the name of Prince Jing. He stretched his head, looked at the long queue again, and his eyes fell on the fancy carriage in front of the door. He seemed to turn around and talked with the people next to him before he turned back and said, "Please wait a moment, your highness. I've sent someone to inform the general."

Yun Shang poured a cup of tea and said calmly, "It doesn't matter. I'll just wait."

A somewhat cold and harsh tone fell to the servant's ears. The servant shivered and bowed to Qian Yin. "It's not that I don't allow you to enter the house. It's just that now that GeneralQi is patrolling the southern city's gate, I don't dare to make a decision. I have already informed the housekeeper, and I think the housekeeper will soon send someone to tell the general."

Yun Shang didn't respond. She heard more and more people gathered by the carriage. She pursed her lips and thought to herself, 'Qi Lang! How dare you bully me first!'. He told her that he had spent an hour on the inspection at the southern city gate. She believed that the servants had already informed Qi Lang of the big noise she made in the city. But Qi Lang didn't show up when she arrived in front of General Qi's Mansion because he despised her.

The tea was getting cold. Yun Shang asked Qian Yin to get in the carriage and boil another cut of tea. She boiled a pot of tea. When Yun Shang was halfway through the tea, she heard the horse's hooves coming from afar.

Yun Shang put down the teacup and straightened her dress. Then a powerful voice came from outside the carriage. "I'm Qi lang. welcome! Your highness, please forgive me."

Yun Shang kept silent for a while and smiled. "General Qi guarded the border for the people, and worried about their safety. What crime is it?"

"Your Highness, you've been travelling a long way. I've told the housekeeper to prepare a guest room for you and please go inside to have a rest." Qi Lang answered in a steady and respectful tone, but Yun Shang heard faintly a touch of defiance.

Yun Shang winked at Qian Yin. Then Qian Yin pushed open the door of the carriage and got off. She bowed and stretched her hand into the carriage without looking at Qi Lang and the onlookers. A slender hand rested on the back of Qian Yin's hand, followed by a pretty face.

Yun Shang got off the carriage slowly and ran her eyes over the onlookers with a smiling face. Then she looked at Qi Lang, who was kneeling on the ground. Qi Lang was in his fifties and had gray hairs and an armor on him. But his back was straight. Behind him were two young men dressed in the same armor. Yun Shang smiled gently and said, "General Qi, guard the frontier. Thanks for your hard work. I'm here today to visit the general and the army, as his Majesty's instruction. I've been conferred the position of governor by his majesty. Thank you for your guidance in the following days."

Glancing around the commoners, noticing their curious, disdainful, and joyful faces, Yun Shang restrained her smile and said in a slight voice, "His majesty asked me to tell you, the army

and the people living in the border area, that even though the KY City is on the border of the State of Ning, his majesty is always in the same mind with us."

Qi Lang fell to the ground, "Your highness, thank you very much."

Yun Shang squinted at the man in front of her. After a long time, she smiled. "Please rise, General Qi."
