Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 247

"What?" Qian Yin paused, and then smiled. "I see... If she really becomes one of the ladies, things will be much easier. Right?"

Yun Shang nodded, "yes. This is finally a good news... " Yun Shang returned the parchment to Qian Yin, "dispose of it."

Qian Yin nodded and took out a brazier from the drawer. She picked up a fire starter and threw it into the brazier. When she saw the parchment was burned to ashes, she extinguished it with water and took it out.

After having breakfast and lunch, Yun Shang took a nap and was about to go out for a walk, when a voice with some tiredness came from outside. "General Qi's wife wants to visit you."

Yun Shang took a seat and nodded to Qian Yin.

Qian Yin lifted up the curtain and went out, followed by a woman. She was in her forties. She had a normal appearance and was a little plump. But her face was pale, as if she had been ill for a long time.

"Your Highness..." Lady Qi bowed to Yun Shang.

Yun Shang stood up with the help of a astral hand and said gently, "Lady Qi, you are being polite. Now I am visiting you in your mansion. By rights, I should go to see you, but I was tired after a long journey the other day, so I took a rest early. I caught a cold today, so I didn't get up early. I'm afraid the illness will affect you, so I'm late." "I dare not, I dare not." Lady Qi put on a stiff smile and asked after a while, "Your Highness, do you call for a physician?"

Yun Shang nodded, "I didn't feel well since I got up early in the morning. I have asked my maid to send for a doctor. The doctor said I'm fine. But my health is not good in the first place. In addition, I've been on a rush these days. It's not a big deal. Now I've taken my medicine. But how about Mrs. Qi? Do you feel better now? Yesterday, the seventh lady went to the front hall to receive me. I didn't know your health until I asked General Qi."

A trace of disgust appeared on Lady Qi's face, but Yun Shang noticed it soon. "I'm old and not as healthy as before. I'm also ill with my old illness. Thank you for your concern, your highness."

"If you need any herbs, just tell me. I've brought many of them, some of which are rare." Yun Shang smiled and said, "I saw two gentlemen yesterday. They are both good-looking and pretty. I think you are blessed."

Qian Yin brought the tea and placed it on the table beside them. Yun Shang took up the teacup. The water temperature was just right. When she lifted the lid, the crumbs of the tea floating on the teacup were left. When she looked down, her eyelashes trembled slightly. She looked gentle and considerate. Lady Qi was stunned. She stared at Yun Shang for a while and smiled. "You flatter me, your highness. They are just two young boys. They are not as handsome as you said." Although she said so, her eyes were full of pride.

Curved her eyes, Yun Shang took a sip of tea and said gently, "it's said that Mr. Qi was hit 50 times by General Qi yesterday. How is he now?"

Lady Qi's smile froze on her face. "Thanks for your concern, your highness. I'm sorry for my carelessness. He deserves the punishment for beating. He's young and strong. There's nothing serious with him." "That's good." Yun Shang chuckled.

"Your highness, you have come to the KY City. The general asked me to prepare a welcome banquet for you yesterday night, but if you are sick, we can postpone it." That was why she came here.

Yun Shang nodded with a smile, "postpone it for a few days. I'm too weak to manage it. When I feel better, I'll ask someone to tell you so that you can arrange later."

Lady Qi heaved a sigh of relief and chatted with Yun Shang for a while. She left after asking Yun Shang whether she was used to living here.

Yun Shang leaned back on the couch, and curled her lips. It seemed the General Qi's Mansion was not a peaceful place.

Qian Yin escorted Lady Qi back to her room and whispered, "Judging from her appearance, she should not be the apple of the eye. No wonder General Qi didn't even allow her to see a guest. Is she ill or something? Maybe she doesn't like strangers."

"Well, you have only seen the appearance of the matter, but you can't see the part hidden in the inner." As Yun Shang spoke, she saw Qian Yin glaring at her with a curious look. Yun Shang continued, "When Lady Qi married Qi Lang, he was just an ordinary farmer in the countryside. It wasn't easy for her to grow up with him. Qi Lang had three sons and two of them were born by Lady Qi. Although Lady Qi was not very beautiful, she must have an undeniable position in General Qi's heart, and she must be a resourceful person. Despite the seven wives of General Qi, only the fifth lady now had one son, and nothing else. So, never underestimate this lady..."

Qian Yin opened her eyes wide and nodded repeatedly. "You are so capable, your highness." In the following days, several ladies of General Qi's Mansion had almost visited the mansion, except for the fifth lady and the seventh lady.

Yun Shang knocked on the table with thoughts in her eyes. She had offended the two ladies. The seventh lady blamed General Qi for inviting a concubine to serve tea the other day when she entered the mansion, while the fifth lady might have something to do with Qi Yuzhi.
