Yun Shang nodded and sneered, "If it was Qian Zhuo who did this, I would believe that she did it unintentionally. But if it was Qian Liu, it would not be that simple."
Qin Yi also nodded and said, "I don't know much about Qian Liu. But when I heard what Your Highness said, I felt it suspicious. Qian Liu seldom went out of the bedroom as she disguised as you. And Field Marshal Su was in the garden house which was usually only used to treat guests. Qian Liu couldn't be that careless."
"Besides, Su Qi hadn't know that I went to KY City before Qian Liu was found to be pretending as me. Su Qi must have got in touch with Qian Liu after that day and found out my whereabouts from her." Yun Shang frowned and thought for a long time. "But I can't understand. If Qian Liu really wants to betray me, she has a lot of chances to do so. Not to mention tell out my whereabouts, it's even possible for her to kill me. But why... She did it this time..." Yun Shang frowned with a bit of doubts in her eyes, drumming on the edge of the couch.
After a while, Qian Zhuo and Qian Liu came back with a lot of things in their hands, most of which are clothes and daily necessities. Yun Shang and Qin Yi stopped talking about it, pretending to be the same as usual. Then they all gathered together and talked about some ordinary things.
It was getting dark. After dinner, Luo Qingyan said that he had to go to the camp and asked Yun Shang to go for bed early. Then he went out. With a thought, Yun Shang smiled and said, "There are only a few rooms in the yard. Qin Yi will, you live in a room alone. Qian Liu and Qian Zhuo, you two share another room. And Qian Zhuo, stay here to serve me in the night as His highness isn't here tonight."
In this way, Qian Liu would also live in a room alone.
It was a little hot in June. Yun Shang only wore a chiffon coat and read a book on the couch in the room. She didn't lie down until it was a little cooler.
Yun Shang felt sleepier these days. She fell asleep soon after lying in bed.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!" The beat from the night watchman was heard. It was 1 pm. Just at this time, a scream came from the yard. Qian Zhuo came to her senses and sat up quickly. She saw that the yard was lit up, as if a secret guard had lit up a torch. Normally, if a secret guard did this, something must have happened.
Qian Yin stood up in a hurry, walked to the table and lit up the lamp. As soon as the light was on, she heard a knock on the door. "Your Highness, Your Highness..."
"Wait for a second." Qian Yin walked quickly to the bedside and lifted up the bed curtain. She called softly, "Your Highness, Your Highness..."
Yun Shang opened her eyes and looked at her in confusion, "Em?"
Qian Zhuo said in a hurry, "Your Highness, something happened. A secret guard asks to see Your Highness..."
"Something happened?" Although she just woke up, Yun Shang came to her senses soon after hearing the two words. She quickly sat up, rubbed her temples, and whispered, "What happened?"
"I don't know. I just heard the scream and saw the light in the yard. Then the secret guard came." Then Qian Zhuo put the glaze lamp on the chair and hurried to find a robe from the case beside.
Qin Yi pushed the door open and came in. Seeing that Yun Shang was awake, she quickly took the robe from Qian Zhuo, put it on Yun Shang and them made her hair into a simple bun.
In the bronze mirror, Yun Shang saw that Qin Yi, who was combing her hair behind her, slightly moved her lips and said two words silently.
Yun Shang lowered her head, a cold smile on her lips.
After cleaning up, Yun Shang slowly walked out of the inner room and into the main hall. The secret guard outside had been waiting for her for a long time. Yun Shang walked to a chair and sat down before she asked slowly, "What's wrong? What happened?"
The secret guard hurriedly said, "I caught someone sending messages to the outside through a carrier pigeon..."
"Oh? Who?" Yun Shang had already known the answer, but she still wanted to confirm it.
"Your Highness's maid, Qian Liu." The secret guard replied in a low voice.
It was just as Yun Shang expected. The coldness at the corners of Yun Shang's mouth became even greater. While Qian Zhuo was shocked and quickly asked, "Qian Liu? How could it be? Did you make a mistake? "
Yun Shang raised her eyes to look at Qian Zhuo and saw the anxiety and concern in her eyes. After all, they used to be like sisters who live and work together, so it was natural that she couldn't believe it.
"Have you stopped the letter? Let me have a look." Yun Shang turned around and ordered the secret guard. The secret guard quickly responded and handed the letter to Yun Shang. Yun Shang unfolded it, glanced at it indifferently, and handed it to Qian Zhuo. "Qian Zhuo, have a look."
