Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 545

Qian Zhuo still wanted to say something, but Qian Liu pulled the hem of her clothes and stopped her.

After the three of them went out of the palace and got on the carriage, Yun Shang said, "everyone in the palace heard and knew something. There are some things you couldn't say in the palace. I'm afraid the conversation between you and me just now has already reached the empress' ears. Don't do it ever again."

Qian Zhuo was stunned before she realized what Yun Shang meant. With a guilty look in her eyes, she said, "Your Highness, I'm sorry."

Yun Shang nodded her head, "it's good that you have realized your mistake. Following me, you must be careful in the future."

Qian Zhuo nodded her head. Qian Liu was silent for a while before asking, "but since you have known someone was eavesdropping, why did you say you want to borrow the power of the Su clan?"

Yun Shang sneered in a cold way, "I don't know much about the empress, but I'm afraid she won't believe me as she is the empress. If I shout loudly to show my determination to follow her, she will be suspicious. She will be reassured if I pretend to be close to her with a purpose."

Qian Liu nodded her head understanding^. Her eyes were full of thoughts. Back at the Prince Rui's mansion, Yun Shang asked Qian Yin to tell the maids in Qianshui Pavilion to prepare some new dresses and jewelries. As soon as Qian Yin left, Yun Shang heard the maid's greetings outside. It was Luo Qingyan coming back.

Yun Shang ran to him, took the robe he had just taken off, and whispered to him, "is everything going well today?"

Luo Qingyan nodded his head and handed the documents in his hand to Yun Shang. There were one hundred and eight girls to select in this group. By now, the officials had taken an inspection on them, and it didn't take much effort. Every three years, a beauty selecting event was held in the state of Xia. The Ministry of rites had been preparing for it for many times. Everything was in an orderly fashion. Luo Qingyan went into the bathroom to wash his hands. Then he returned to the room and saw Yun Shang reading the list of the girls with their names on it.

"What's wrong? Are you interested in the beauty-picking event? " Luo Qingyan smiled, holding Yun Shang's shoulder and looking at the list in her hand.

Yun Shang giggled, "well, I'm quite interested in the selection. His highness, do you know how many of them are my people?"

Luo Qingyan raised his eyebrows and smiled with a gleam shining in his eyes. "You have a tacit understanding with me."
