Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 430

Yun Shang asked Qian Yin to help her get dressed and made her hair in a bun. Then an eunuch by the empress' side came to visit, and he was not Liu Wenan. "Your Highness, Princess Qian Ling had a stomachache last night. The imperial physician diagnosed that she was poisoned. The empress is calling for you to come to the Imperial Palace."

Yun Shang lifted her hand and held the plum blossom hairpin in her bun. She frowned as if she was very surprised, "Princess Qian Ling was poisoned?"

The eunuch hurriedly said yes and continued, "the empress has summoned all the people who have contact with Princess Qian Ling yesterday. Princess Qian Ling went to her highness' mansion yesterday, and Lady Rui sent her back to the palace in person. The empress said that lady rui was so kind that she would never do such a thing. But she also said that she had to go through the proper procedures, or people would not believe it."

"Well..." Yun Shang squinted and nodded her head, "I'll go to the imperial palace with you."

When Yun Shang arrived at the palace, lady Yun's Yunqi Palace was full of people. The empress was the first to see her. "Lady rui, you are here? Come and sit here. " Then she asked some maids to bring a stool for her. Yun Shang curtsied to the empress, and sat down beside her. She looked worried, "I heard that Princess Qian Ling was poisoned in the early morning. How is she now?"

'The physician has been making a diagnosis and treatment for her stomach for a whole night. I went to see her just now and her face was so pale. I feel very sorry for her." The empress looked miserable.

"Have you found the culprit yet?" Yun Shang lifted her eyes to look at the people in the hall. In addition to many maids and eunuchs, there were also two or three imperial concubines sitting in the hall. All of them had heavy faces.

The empress shook her head, "not yet. His majesty has always loved Princess Qian Ling. Now someone has committed such a terrible crime. The culprit must be punished." Then the empress turned around and looked at an old maid who was a little old. "Madam, it seems that Qian Ling also went to the Xiang Zhu Palace yesterday. Has the Lady Xiang come yet?"

The lady whom she have been talking about is Ning Qian?

Yun Shang was stunned for a while and then said to the empress, "Princess Qian Ling went to the Xiang Zhu Palace with me yesterday. The emperor was there and the princess was in his Majesty's arms. But it seems that she didn't get in contact with the lady."

"Well, it's not necessarily a solid evidence to prove she's innocent. I also didn't get in contact with Princess Qian Ling, but she's always fond of food. She ate almonds in my palace, and maybe she had some in the Xiang Zhu Palace as well." A woman who was dressed a little coquettishly snorted and responded dismissively.

The empress frowned and seemed a little displeased. She glanced at the lady and ordered quietly, "send someone to the Xiang Zhu Palace to invite the lady Xiang."

Xia Huanyu was not here. Yun Shang thought to herself. When she received the news today, Luo Qingyan had not gone to the palace to the court yet. Lady Yun had no reason to keep it a secret if something bad happened to Qian Ling last night. And if lady Yun reported to Xia Huanyu that Qian Ling was poisoned, as the favorite princess by name, he would have come to see her.

Yun Shang thought for a while and wondered where did Xia Huanyu rest yesterday?

No one answered Yun Shang's question before Xia Huanyu came in, followed by Ning Qian, who was dressed in plain clothes.

As he looked a little angry, Daniel went straight to the woman who had just spoken, ignoring the other people who had knelt down to express their respects. "Why didn't you tell me that something like that happened to Tina last night? If I didn't go to the Xiang Zhu Palace to hear about it from the Lady Xiang there, I'm afraid you will

still hide it from me even now."

The lady was shocked. She hurriedly knelt down and said, "I, I didn't expect..."

Xia Huanyu was so angry that he raised his foot and kicked her. "You didn't expect that? Why didn't you think of it? " Then he turned to the empress, "where is the imperial physician? What did the imperial physician say?

The empress answered promptly. "The imperial physician is making a diagnosis and treatment. The night before yesterday it was a bit noisy. The imperial physician said that there might be some trouble. Lady Yun Shang is in her bedroom. Your, would you like to go in and have a look?"

Xia Huanyu didn't respond. He walked towards the inner room, followed by the empress. Yun Shang stood still with her head down and her eyes peered at Ning Qian. Ning Qian gave a gesture to Yun Shang and then stood still quietly. The woman who was kicked to the ground gritted her teeth and knelt up. Stubbornness could be seen in her eyes.

It must be because the woman was fighting for emperor Xia's favor, so lady Yun sent a servant to tell the news that Princess Qian Ling had a stomachache. At that time, Xia Huanyu should be resting in the woman's palace. That woman thought lady Yun deliberately blocked the news in order to lure him into the palace.

'the woman is probably going to die. But she doesn't seem to realize it,' she thought to herself.
