Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 640

When she went back to the Taiji hall, she was playing a lute. Yun Shang quietly went back to her seat. As soon as she sat down, she saw a maid coming in from outside and standing behind the empress.

Yun Shang stared at the lady who was playing Pipa, but saw the servant girl bow down and whisper to the empress from the corner of her eye. Yun Shang flashed a smile. Suspicion was not a good thing sometimes.

Gradually, the sound of the Pipa became lower and lower, and the hall became brighter. Luo Qingyan turned around and saw Yun Shang's smile. He said gently, "You seem to be in a good mood? Is her Pipa so melodious?"

Yun Shang nodded, "It's good." Yun Shang smiled and said, "I feel the jewelry on my head is too heavy today. His highness, shall I go back to the mansion now?"

Luo Qingyan meditated for a moment and said, "The banquet is boring anyway. I'll go back with you. Please sit here for a while. When the next show begins, I'll report it to his majesty and then leave."

Yun Shang nodded. The light went down again after the empress reported the name of the next show. This was a sword dance.

Luo Qingyan stood up, walked to Xia Huanyu and said something to him. Then he looked up at Yun Shang with a stern look, and nodded in agreement.

Yun Shang knew that Yun Shang must have agreed, so she stood up and left the Taiji hall with Luo Qingyan.

They walked down the long steps outside the Taiji hall together, and went out of the palace gate. After they got on a carriage, Luo Qingyan said, "I saw you go out just now, and it seemed that the empress had sent a maid to follow you?"

Yun Shang smiled, "Yes, her majesty has always been suspicious of me. Just now, Lady Hui was found pregnant, and I went out of the Tai Chi hall. I'm afraid that she's suspecting me of tampering with it, so she ordered her servants to follow me."

Luo Qingyan nodded slightly, "The empress..."

But he didn't finish what he wanted to say. Yun Shang saw him frown slightly and there was a murderous look in his eyes. She didn't ask what he wanted to say afterwards. She just withdrew her gaze and looked at her own hand.

"The empress of the State of Xia is just like Empress Yuan Zhen of the State of Ning. They don't get the emperor's love, but only get support from their families. But they are different. The Su clan has a deeper foundation in the state of Xia and Su Ruji is and more ruthless. " Yun Shang said indifferently, touching her belly with her hands, and her eyes grew colder. But so what? She could get rid of Empress Yuan Zhen, and so could she get rid of Empress Su.

After returning to their mansion, Yun Shang asked Qin Yi and Qian Zhuo to remove her formal clothes and hairstyle. After changing into casual clothes, Yun Shang was a little relieved. "Even though I have strong endurance, I still feel it's lucky that there aren't too many formal banquets like this one in the Palace."

Qin Yi grinned, "Your Highness, everything is ready. It's the first time for the seventh prince's wife to dress up so solemnly and attend such an event. I noticed that she seemed to be very tired just now, with her brows frowning tightly. From time to time, she lifted her bun with hands."

'Yutong..." Yun Shang frowned and kept silent for a long time before she said, "I don't think the maids around her are capable enough. I'm afraid it's not easy for her to live in the seventh prince's mansion. When I went to Lord Hua Guo's mansion later, I'll ask Lady Hua Guo to send two capable maids to look after her.

However, Qin Yi shook her head, "Your Highness, I don't think you need to talk about it with Lady Hua Guo. She is Lord Hua Guo's niece and was recommended to the selection by Lord Hua Guo's mansion. If it were possible, they would have arranged it early, but it didn't. They must have its own reasons."

"You are right." Yun Shang nodded, "The seventh prince looks gentle, but actually he is cruel and suspicious..."

Just then, Luo Qingyan came out of the bathroom. Seeing that he only wore his underwear, Yun Shang frowned and said, "Although there is braziers in the room, it's not very warm. You'd better wear more."

Luo Qingya smiled, "You look a little tired. Don't want to deal with anything today and have a rest."

Yun Shang nodded, and went to the bathroom to wash up. Then she went to bed early.

Early the next morning, Qin Yi knocked at the door. Yun Shang was still dazed when she heard Luo Qingyan asking, "What's wrong? Is there anything wrong? "
