Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 801

"It's my fault. I didn't protect her well." Xia Huanyu's low voice came with endless remorse.

Yun Shang was taken aback and felt a little depressed. She thought for a moment and said, "The reason why His Highness and I decided to hide the truth from you was that Her Ladyship has had a new family as she lost her memory. We thought it not appropriate to disturb her. Besides, we also knew that during these years after the incident of Empress Hua, Your Majesty had set up a new empress and married many concubines. And you also had many children with them. So, we really didn't know if we should tell you the truth. We just thought it might be good for everyone if we hid it."

Xia Huanyu kept silent. Yun Shang didn't hear any response from Xia Huanyu until he returned to the yard house.

Knowing that Xia Huanyu must've been in a complicated mood as he had suddenly got to know too many things in one day, so she didn't say anything. She just returned to her room quietly and wrote a prescription. Then she asked Qin Yi to fill the prescription and send it to Lady Zhao.

When Yun Shang returned to the yard, Xia Huanyu had already gone. Yun Shang was shocked and wanted to ask someone to look for him. But she remembered that since Xia Huanyu had left the Palace, he must have brought a lot of secret guards with him. There was no need to worry. She calmed down a little and ordered Qin Yi to prepare something to eat.

But Xia Huanyu didn't come back until the dusk. Yun Shang was a little flustered. She stood up in a hurry, took Qin Yi and Qian Zhuo out of the door, and rushed to the yard house where Lady Zhao lived.

Huaiyin City was not big, so Yun Shang didn't take the carriage. When she turned the corner beside Lady Zhao's yard house, she suddenly stepped back.

Qin Yi and Qian Zhuo looked at her with curiosity. Yun Shang took a look at them and then poked her head out again.

Xia Huanyu stood outside the wall of Lady Zhao's yard. After a while, he began to pace back and forth, but his eyes were always inadvertently looking at the low wall.

Looking at Xia Huanyu's figure full of worries, Yun Shang frowned and felt moved.

Yun Shang hid in the corner and watched for a while. Then she turned around, winked at Qin Yi and Qian Zhuo, and turned around to leave. She suddenly felt that bringing Lady Zhao here might be a wrong decision.

On the second morning, Xia Huanyu went into the yard again and had his breakfast in silence. He sat on the bench in the yard for the whole morning, and then the whole afternoon.

It was not until dusk that Xia Huanyu lifted his eyes to look at Yun Shang, who had been glancing at Xia Huanyu from time to time. He seemed to have returned to the one Yun Shang was familiar with, the calm emperor of the State of Xia.

After a moment's silence, Xia Huanyu opened his mouth. His voice was slow, but with irresistible firmness, "I'll go back to Jin City tomorrow morning."

Yun Shang was surprised, but he seemed to talk to himself, "I've been away for more than half a month. I'm afraid there are a lot of political affairs for me to deal with in the court.

Yun Shang stared at Xia Huanyu blankly. He didn't plan to take Empress Hua back to the Palace?

Just as Yun Shang was speculating, Xia Huanyu spoke again, "The Palace is in a mess now. Tell her to wait for me for a while. I'll take her back as soon as I clear the Palace up."

Yun Shang was shocked and looked at Xia Huanyu in disbelief.
