Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 538

The Empress asked for her? Yun Shang narrowed her eyes. She was afraid that the empress would think she had done something bad to Xia Yunxi.

Yun Shang thought for a moment, turned to speak to Luo Qingyan, and then stood up to go to the Wei Yang palace. However, just as she stood up, she saw Luo Qingyan put down his glass and also stand up as well.

"Your Highness?" Yun Shang stopped and looked at Luo Qingyan with curiosity.

"HI go with you. I just thought that I haven't seen my nephew, and I should go with you no matter what." Then Luo Qingyan held Yun Shang's shoulder and walked out of the Taiji Palace slowly.

The Wei Yang Palace was brightly lit, and the servants led them to the door of the side hall where the servants were scurrying back and forth. Yun Shang thought for a moment, and stepped into the hall with Luo Qingyan. Many servants were waiting in the side hall, some with washbasin in their hands, and some with towels in their hands.

Luo Qingyan glanced at them indifferently, and then led Yun Shang into the inner hall. Xia Huanyu

and the empress were both sitting on the chair opposite the bed. Three imperial physicians with white beard were standing by the bed, and they were examining the little boy. Two servants were standing beside him, one holding a pot in hand, and the other holding a towel. "Are you here?" Xia Huanyu turned around and said to Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan.

Yun Shang agreed. They stepped forward together before Yun Shang said gently, "The little prince..."

Before Yun Shang finished her words, the empress cast a cold glance at her, and said coldly, "in the afternoon today, I went to change my clothes in the palace, and asked you to keep an eye on my grandchild. But why didn't you do as you was told?"

Yun Shang raised her eyebrows. This was a very smart move for the empress. She asked Yun Shang why she let the little prince have an accident, not if she had got in touch with him. In this way, Yun Shang agreed with the empress to take care of the baby boy in her absence. But because of her negligence, the boy now looked like this. No matter who the real culprit was, she would be charged with negligent care of him.

Yun Shang lowered her eyes and said in a pleasant and low voice, "the empress asked me to take care of the little prince, but just because I was spilled tea by servants. My arm was scalded by the tea. It's her Majesty's birthday today. It would be disrespectful if I wear dirty clothes and Her Majesty's birthday party, and the little prince's nanny has also arrived. So I entrusted her the little

prince to his nanny's hands to take care of him."

The empress frowned and snorted coldly. When she was about to say something, Luo Qingyan frowned and interrupted her, "Your Majesty asked Lady Rui to take care of the baby boy? Huh... Lady Rui is neither the little prince's mother nor his servant. Her rank is much higher than the little prince's, why does Lady Rui have to look after him? The empress asked Lady Rui to help her to take care of the child. Lady Rui just thought that as an elder, it was kind of her to take care of the child. Moreover, Lady Rui have never touched the little prince. What a farce it would be if the empress put the blame on Lady Rui. What should be blamed most for what happened to his highness was someone else. Didn't his servants serve him?"
