Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 767

Lingxi City... Yun Shang thought for a while and said nothing.

Hua Yutong continued, "My cousin came to Jin City for the imperial examination. My uncle and aunt heard that I married the seventh prince, so they asked my cousin to visit me and see if I can find a way to help him. I dared not to promise my cousin when he mentioned it as I didn't have the ability. So I just change the topic and ask him how he was going. He told me that he had just come back from Lingxi City and inadvertently mentioned that he had met His Highness's servants several times."

Hua Yutong lowered her head and smiled helplessly. "Although I'm not favored by the seventh prince, he is still my husband nominally. I heard from my cousin that the situation in Lingxi City is not good, so I'm a little worried about His Highness. But my cousin didn't say anything more about that. I want to know His Highness' current situation from him, but I'm really not familiar with him and it's difficult for me to ask him. I sent people to inquire about my cousin and found out he liked enjoying opera, so I often invited him to the theater and wanted to get some information from him."

"Have you found out what you want to know?" Yun Shang's lips curled up slightly. She picked up the cup of tea poured by Qin Yi, but she didn't drink it. Instead, she fixed her eyes unblinkingly on Hua Yutong.

Hua Yutong shook her head and looked a little disappointed. "I've asked him two times, but the information I got was not what I wanted. My cousin only said that the war in Lingxi City was tense, and told the situation about the people and shops in the city. He didn't say anything else." "It's not that he doesn't want to tell me, but he doesn't know at all." Yun Shang sighed, "I'm afraid your cousin has some evil thoughts on you. You'd better not have too much contact with him. You've been married now, and your husband is a prince. I'm afraid that if you go on like this, rumors will drown you before you get the answer."

Hua Yutong said nothing, clenching the brocade handkerchief in her hand.

Yun Shang raised her hand and poked the spot between her eyebrows. She shook her head and said, "I think you are a smart lady. Why are you being so stupid this time? As you said just now, your uncle is a businessman. Even if they have been to Ling Xi City, they could see no more than the situation of common people and shops.

"The seventh prince is the commander in chief of the army. Where is he when the two armies are fighting? What is he doing? How is he? This is the top secret in the army. The State of Yelang must've planted many spies in Lingxi City. If even a businessman who has just arrived at the city could get to know about this, I'm the seventh prince will probably be murdered soon." Yun Shang took a sip of the tea with a touch of sadness in her eyes.

Hua Yutong kept silent for a long time and said softly, "I've never stayed in the camp as you did. I really don't know..."

Yun Shang nodded gently, "Remember what I told you. Don't go to Liyuan Theater with your cousin anymore."

Hua Yutong nodded and looked up at Yun Shang, "Okay, I will." Haven't you got any news about Prince Rui?"

Yun Shang sighed and shook her head, with a bit of weariness on her face. "His Highness was poisoned when he was missing. Although the fluffy snow lotus is not deadly, the antidote is very precious. If His Highness couldn't be fed with the antidote on time, he will have to stay in a coma. I wonder how His Highness is now and whether His Highness has been detoxified...

Seeing Yun Shang like this, Hua Yutong hurriedly comforted her, "Shang'er, don't be sad. Prince Rui will be fine. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have mentioned it. Shang'er, scold me."

Yun Shang laughed, "Why should I scold you? Even if I scold you, His Highness won't be able to come back. Have you visited Lord Hua Guo's mansion these days?"

Hua Yutong nodded, "I went back four or five days ago, and the door was closed. After talking to me for a while, Lady Hua Guo went into her bedroom for a nap. I heard from the maids that she took care of Lord Hua Guo at night and didn't sleep much."

"It's not easy for Lady Hua Guo. Go back and have a chat with her when you have time." Yun Shang whispered.

Hua Yutong agreed. The two chattered for a while before Hua Yutong stood up and left Prince Rui's mansion.

Yun Shang felt a little sleepy, so she went upstairs and lay down on the couch in the room. Then she raised her head and whispered to Qian Liu, who had followed her up, "Do you think the seventh princess is telling the truth?"
