Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 646

Ning Qian nodded, "I think so too. Now that Youran lives in the Xiang Zhu Palace, I could help to look after her. But yesterday you said at the banquet that Yourran had a strong sickness because of the incense of musk or the saffron flower. This morning, his majesty sent people to her palace to search, but they found nothing...

Yun Shang and Ning Qian had known each other for many years, and they had a good tacit understanding. Hearing Ning Qian's words, Yun Shang understood what she was thinking about. She smiled at Ning Qian and said, "You are smart. In fact, I've already made a plan. You could go there when you're free, claiming that you'll accompany Youran to pack up. You'd better go with his majesty. If you can't go with him, try to take Liu Wenan with you."

"There is a pot of black chrysanthemum on the table of the inner hall. Ask a maid to deliberately knock over it when she was cleaning up." Yun Shang picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

"Those are hidden in the flower pot?" Ning Qian's eyes sparkled with excitement, and the corners of her mouth curved up. She asked in confusion after a moment's reflection, "But, what's the matter with the black chrysanthemum? Even if we find, so what? "

Yun Shang didn't answer Ning Qian's question, but just asked in a soft voice, "How's the relationship between the Empress and Zhao Xianwu recently?"

"Zhao Xianwu?" Ning Qian was confused. She looked at Lin Youran.

Lin Youran thought for a moment and said softly "Did you mean the chosen lady Zhao Xianwu, the daughter of the governor of Jingzhou, Zhao Butong?"

Ning Qian was suddenly enlightened. "Oh, it's her. She was the girl who danced in moon last night? I heard that the empress intended to recommend her to his majesty. It seems that the plan was well planned. But her Highness has messed it up. I didn't remember her name."

After a moment's pause, he remembered Yun Shang's question. Ning Qian meditated for a moment and said in a low voice, "Among all the chosen ladies, Zhao Xianwu was closest to the empress. It's said that the empress had punished her because she had a conflict with Lady Yun in the imperial garden. But soon after that, the empress quickly summoned her and awarded her many gifts."

"The empress must have planned everything well." Yun Shang put down the teacup and gently covered it. "As you can see, the only lady in the imperial household who danced the moon dance is lady Zhao. Clearly, the empress was behind it. You just need to let more people know this fact. Make everyone know that she works for the empress."

"All the black chrysanthemums in the imperial palace..." Yun Shang smiled faintly. "The 24 pots of black chrysanthemums were all sent as tributes by Zhao Xianwu's father, but the one in Youran's palace was given by Zhao Xianwu. Youran might not remember. She got the tile of Lady Hui without the third round of selection and has been favored by his majesty, so many chosen ladies sent gifts to her palace.

Hearing this, Ning Qian smiled and said, "The empress has been in close contact with Zhao Qianwu. And musk and saffron flower are found in the pot of black chrysanthemum given by Zhao Qianwu... Even though we couldn't prove the empress did it, I'm afraid his majesty will have a grudge against her if he knows it." Yun Shang nodded. She touched her lower abdomen with a smile, and said, "The Su clan has a great power in the court. With the Su clan's help, the empress's position will not be affected. And what I want to do is to make his majesty's good impression towards the empress fade gradually and make him feel that the Su clan is ambitious that they not only want to take the lead of the imperial household, but also want to murder the royal children and covet the throne of the state of Xia. Repeat lies will became truth. Let alone what I'm telling is the truth. There are many princesses in the imperial household, but there are very few princes who can live to adulthood. I won't believe that the Su clan didn't do anything to them."

"His majesty's children are really not too many. The seventh prince is in poor health, but the twelfth prince is fine. It's a pity that Lady Shu... The nineteenth prince was also extremely weak now. The imperial physician once said that he could not survive this winter. Prince Rui is an exception, but he grows up without staying in the palace." Ning Qian murmured.

"I'm afraid has majesty has some doubts too. However, the empress has always been cautious, and his majesty has not caught any evidence. We still can't affect the empress too much this time, but the doubt will grow bigger if his majesty has already been suspicious of the empress..." Yun Shang smiled.

Ning Qian nodded, "I know what to do."

They chatted for a while. Then they talked about the emperor's disappearance some time ago. Ning Qian asked, "Your Highness, so you disappeared?"

Yun Shang smiled. "The arrest warrant has been issued, but no one has been found. I'm afraid he is hiding somewhere, changing his appearance is possible."

Ning Qian frowned and looked at Yun Shang with concern. "I'm not afraid of stronger enemies. I'm afraid that they are hidden in the shadows and can't be found at all. I always feel restless as long as I can't find the Eldest Princess. You are pregnant now. You should take more secret guards whenever you go out. Don't let others find any chance to get close to you."
