Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 689

Yun Shang's eyes fell on the seventh prince. He was dressed in a white robe and a silver overcoat made of fox fur. His hair was tied up with a silver hair band. He looked like a languid noble man.

Yun Shang smiled and thought, 'Things are getting more interesting. From the assassination to the rescue with guards, it took less than an hour. How could the seventh prince know the news and bring people here so quickly?'

Neither joy nor anger could be seen in Xia Huanyu's eyes. He looked at the seventh prince indifferently. After a long time, he said, "Rise. What crime would you commit?"

The seventh prince quickly responded and stood up. He raised his head and looked at Xia Huanyu, only to find Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan standing beside him. His eyes darkened before he smiled and said, "It turns out that Brother is with Father."

Luo Qingyan kept silent. However, Xia Huanyu suddenly asked, "Where were you just now?"

It seemed that the seventh prince had expected this question from Xia Huanyu, so he responded calmly, "I was having dinner with her highness in the Long Feng Tower when I saw crowds of people running around, saying that there was an assassination of Father. As my mansion was not far from the Long Feng Tower, I hurried back to summon all my people to rush here."

Hearing this, Yun Shang smiled lightly. Just now people ran away not because of the murder of Xia Huanyu, but because of the murder to Luo Qingyan. Even the seventh prince intended to help, he couldn't summon nearly one hundred soldiers so quickly. They must have already packed up and been waiting for something to happen.

However, the seventh prince didn't expect that Luo Qingyan was also here, and he was first assassinated, so there was a flaw.

But in this way, it should not be the same person that assassinated Luo Qingyan and Xia Huanyu.

But Luo Qingyan didn't care about the rumors at all. He walked to Yun Shang, looked her up and down, and then asked lightly, "Are you tired after all this?"

Hearing that, Xia Huanyu turned his head back too. After being silent for a while, he said in a low voice, "I didn't expect you to be quite good at martial arts. Now that you are pregnant, you shouldn't take any actions. I'm afraid I can't see the lanterns today. I'll go back to the palace. You'd better go to another place."

Yun Shang smiled and responded. Then she said to Luo Qingyan, "Let's go back."

Luo Qingyan nodded and jumped off the high wall with Yun Shang in his arms. Then they left passing by the seventh prince.

The seventh prince was still some distance from Xia Huanyu, so he didn't hear clearly their conversation at all. He gritted his teeth in secret, lowered his head and stood under the wall.

Turning around, Xia Huanyu said to Ning Qian, who was by his side, "Let's go back to the palace too. Tell them what festive lanterns you like and ask them to make some for you."

Ning Qian giggled. "It's my honor to company Your Majesty around. I've already seen the lanterns. I'm very pleased, so I won't be bothering."
