Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 712

Yun Shang was slightly taken aback. Then she burst into a scornful smile. "The seventh prince thought he had controlled Lady Shu. But he seemed to have neglected that Lady Shu had a son, as Prince Qi wasn't around. It is impossible for Lady Shu to plan and work for the seventh prince wholeheartedly. As I said before, she has a weakness. It will be the Wanshou Festival soon. Has His Majesty issued an imperial edict to ask Prince Qi back to celebrate his birthday? "

"By convention, he should come back." Luo Qingyan answered in a low voice.

Yun Shang nodded slightly, "I think Lady Shu will try every means to keep Prince Qi in Jin city. When Prince Qi was ordered to leave the Jin City, I said I would take advantage of him to restrain Lady Shu. Now it's a good chance..."

Luo Qingyan nodded and stopped asking any more questions. After thinking for a while, he said, "The eldest princess and the seventh prince are hard to deal with, but we will find a solution."

Luo Qingyan looked up at Yun Shang, who was still lost in thought, and pulled her to sit on the bed. Then he said: "In order to hide her identity, the eldest princess even dressed herself as a beggar. But she has been a noble princess all her life, she must have not been totally used to that kind of life. Think about it carefully. When she worked as an accountant in Yuan mansion, the hairpin on her head seems very simple, but it is very precious. Let's start from here."

Yun Shang didn't realize what he meant until she pondered over Luo Qingyan's words. She ordered Qian Zhuo in a hurry, "Go to the Yuan mansion and search for the room where the eldest princess lived. Pay special attention to her tunics and socks, which are not conspicuous."

Qian Zhuo, though not knowing what was going on, quickly ordered the secret guards to go.

Luo Qingyan continued, "With the clue, we can start fishing and wait for the fish to get hooked..."

"As for the seventh prince..." Luo Qingyan smiled, so unreadable that Yun Shang could not tell what he was thinking. "I'm not in a hurry. I'll eliminate his allies first, and then see how long he can be arrogant."

Yun Shang smiled too when she saw Luo Qingyan's face. In Yun Shang's eyes, Luo Qingyan was like a well prepared hunter who was staring at his prey. Instead of killing him, Luo Qingyan was going to getting rid of his companions one by one first, and enjoyed the flustered look of his prey.

"You old fox." Her lips curled into a smile.

Hearing this, Luo Qingyan raised his eyebrows, gently patted on Yun Shang's head and chuckled, "you little fox."

After laughing for a while, they took the map and sat on the bed to read it. The room was quiet. Both Qin Yi and Qian Zhuo smiled when they read the map.

Luo Qingyan's speculation was very accurate. He found the key point immediately. The next morning, Qian Zhuo went into the room and whispered to Yun Shang, "The secret guard checked the room where the eldest princess had stayed in. The inner clothes and socks were all made of good silk. Moreover, the handkerchief for face washing is the best brocade handkerchief. The hairpins in the jewelry box are simple wooden hairpins, but they are all made of good wood materials, such as yellow pear wood, rosin wood, mahogany, rosewood and ebony." Hearing this, a sneer emerged at the corner of Yun Shang's mouth. It was exactly like what Luo Qingyan had said that a noble princess couldn't get used to real ordinary life.

"There are few shops selling these things In the Jin City. Scrutinize those items and tell what kind of material they are. Then find shops where these things could be bought and install some secret guards in. Yun Shang ordered in a low voice with a sneer.

Qian Shu made a quick reply and withdrew.

Before long, a voice from the outer room came, "Your Highness, the seventh princess asks to see you."

Hua Yutong? Yun Shang raised her head and turned to look at Luo Qingyan. She hesitated for a moment before asking Qin Yi to put down the bed curtain and spread out the screen. Then she said to lady Shun Qing, "please come in."

Yun Shang put the map under several medical books. Then she picked up a medical book to read.

When Hua Yutong walked into the room, she saw Yun Shang sitting at the desk with a slight frown, looking at the book in her hand. Then she came closer and saw the name of the book. She was surprised and glanced quickly at the screen that blocked the bed. She said in a soft voice: "Shang'er, are you reading a medical book?"

Yun Shang nodded gently, put the book aside, and rubbed her temples as if she was a little tired. "Yutong, have a seat."

She sat down on a chair and thought for a while before asking, "I heard about what happened to Prince Rui. How is he now?"

Yun Shang sighed helplessly and shook her head, "The poison of the fluffy snow lotus is not something that can be cured in one or two days. I feed him medicine everyday but it seems not to work. I have been reading medical books all day long. I want to find out other methods."
