Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 429

The Xiang Zhu Palace should be where Ning Qian lived. When Yun Shang was thinking about it, a hatred flashed in the empress' eyes and she concealed it immediately. She smiled indifferently. "I wanted to have a good talk with you. Now that his majesty wants to see you, then go first."

Yun Shang curtsied to the empress and left with the servant.

"I haven't seen my father for a long time. I want to go with you." Princess Qian Ling's voice came from behind her, "sister in law, wait for me."

Yun Shang paused for a while, and then she was held by Princess Qian Lingg. After they left the Yunqi palace, Princess Qian Ling glanced at the servants who walked in front of them and said in a low voice, "tell you a secret. The lady from the Xiang Zhu Palace is even more beautiful than you. It's just that she doesn't pay any attention to me. I don't like her."

Yun Shang's eyes fell on Qian Ling who looked innocent. She was a little annoyed that the girl growing up in the palace was so scheming at the age of twelve that she told her first that Lady Xiang was even prettier than her to get her annoyed. Women were always narrow-minded, especially with a beautiful face. There was always a slight enmity between women who were more beautiful than themselves. That was exactly what Qian Ling wanted. She wanted to make Yun Shang dislike the Lady Xiang in the first place. Then, she told Yun Shang that Lady Xiang chose to ignore her because she didn't like her. She wanted Yun Shang to know that they were on the same side.

"Really?" Yun Shang frowned. "She is really more beautiful than me?'

"It's not my words. Since you came, people all hold a comparison between you and Lady Xiang."

Yun Shang smiled and said no more.

A lot of Hunan bamboos were planted in the Xiang Zhu Palace. Yun Shang heard someone playing when she walked in. Someone was playing the zither behind a piece of white veil.

"Father, father." However, Qian Ling hadn't seen the emperor, before she had thrown away Yun Shang's hands and rushed into the palace, shouting and yelling.

"It's Qian Ling." Xia Huanyu's voice came through, which sounded indifferent and emotionless.

It suddenly came to Yun Shang's mind that there was information in her pamplet, on which Princess Qian Ling was the apple of Xia Huanyu's eye. Yun Shang paused for a second and walked in. It turned out that Ning Qian was playing the zither. At the same time, Xia Huanyu sat on the chair next to them, holding Qian Ling in his arms, who had just rushed in.

"Pay respects to his majesty and Lady Xiang." Yun Shang curtsied to them.

"Get up." Said Xia Huanyu lightly.

Yun Shang rose to her feet. No sooner had she stood on her feet than she heard Xia Huanyu ask, "Why are you here today?"

Yun Shang quickly bowed her head and said, "Princess Qian Ling came to the mansion. I sent her back to the palace."

Hearing this, Xia Huanyu looked at Qian Ling, who was in his arms, as if deep in thought, and then looked away slightly. "Well, since you're back in the palace, let's play chess with you."

Hearing this, Ning Qian quickly ordered the maids to bring the chessboard. Yun Shang sat down opposite to Xia Huanyu. It was hard for her to figure out what was on Xia Huanyu's mind. Did he ask her to come just to play chess with her?

With a frown, Yun Shang took a look at Xia Huanyu and finally kept up with him.
