Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 828

Yun Shang forced a smile and said, "Well... To tell you the truth, when I was at the border, I spent most of my time in Cangnan and Huaiyin. I did live in Lingxi City for a few days, but I hadn't seen the seventh Prince. But don't worry. When I was in Lingxi City, I was treated by the Governor of Lingxi City, Zhang Xing. I could send a message to him for you. If he could see the seventh Prince, he will give your letter to him."

Hearing this, Hua Yutong kept silent for a while and then nodded slightly. She took out a sealed letter from her sleeve and handed it to Yun Shang, "Thank you, Shang'er."

"My pleasure. You don't need to be so polite in front of me." Yun Shang smiled and handed the letter to Qian Zhuo in the presence of Hua Yutong. "Send two secret guards to Lingxi City."

Qian Zhuo took the letter and went out.

Hua Yutong thanked her again and said with a smile, "I haven't been to the Palace for a long time. Since you are going to the Palace, I'll go to greet Lady Shu with you."

Yun Shang nodded slightly and smiled, "Okay, let's go."

Hua Yutong and Yun Shang went to the Palace together. As soon as they entered the Palace gate, they saw a group of officials in court clothes coming over. They seemed to be about to leave the Palace. The group was led by Luo Qingyan, who was talking to the people beside him. As soon as he turned around, he saw Yun Shang. Luo Qingyan stopped and walked quickly towards Yun Shang. "Why are you in the Palace?" Yun Shang smiled and said, "I'm going to visit Lady Hui."

Luo Qingyan nodded and looked at Yun Shang. He frowned and said, "It's a little far from here to Xiangzhu Palace. I'll ask someone to carry a palanquin here." Then he turned around and was about to give an order.

Yun Shang hurried to stop Luo Qingyan and said gently, "No, thanks. There is a rule for the use of the palanquin in the Palace. I'm not that fragile. I'd better follow the rule lest someone else will gossip about us. If you have anything to do, just go ahead with your work. I have Hua Yutong with me."

Luo Qingyan looked up at Hua Yutong, who was standing next to Yun Shang. He was silent for a moment and then nodded slightly. "Okay. Be careful. I'll come back to the Palace after I deal with something outside the Palace. Wait for me at Xiangzhu Palace. I'll pick you up later."

Yun Shang broke into a big smile and nodded, "okay."

Luo Qingyan reached out to help Yun Shang fix her haipin before going back to the group of officials.

Yun Shang took a look at them quietly, and then walked towards the inner Palace. Hua Yutong looked at Yun Shang with admiration, "Prince Rui looks cold and indifferent, but he is really gentle to Shang'er."

As she spoke, her voice gradually lowered, and she looked a little sad.

Yun Shang reached out to hold Hua Yutong's hand and said softly, "A good woman like you is bound to meet someone who is willing to love and protect you."

Hearing this, Hua Yutong smiled bitterly, "Maybe, but that person may not be the one I want."

Empress Hua said in a very low voice. If it weren't for that Yun Shang knew some martial art and had a more sensitive ear than ordinary people, she couldn't have been able to hear what she said.

"What?" Yun Shang thought for a while, pretending not to hear it, and turned to ask.

Empress Hua shook her head, "Shang'er, are you going to Shuya Palace?"

Shuya Palace? Thinking of Luo Qingyan's words, Yun Shang thought for a while and nodded. "Now that Lady Shu is in charge of the imperial household, we should go to greet her."

When they arrived at Shuya Palace, Lady Shu was taking a nap, so Yun Shang and Hua Yutong waited outside. Yun Shang thought Lady Shu wanted to discomfit her by keeping her wait for long for what happened the day before yesterday. But she didn't expect that Lady Shu would come out of the inner hall soon.

Yun Shang and Empress Hua stood up to curtsy. Lady Shu waved her hand casually and said with a sullen face, "Sit down. It's getting hotter. After taking a nap, I'm sweating all over. There are several pots of ice in the room, but it's still so hot."

Yun Shang and Empress Hua sat down. Yun Shang didn't respond, but Hua Yutong said first, "I'm afraid It's going to rain soon."

"That's good. It will be cooler after rain." Lady Shu wiped the sweat on her nose and said softly, "It seems to be hotter this year than before. I'm wondering when it could cool down."

Yun Shang smiled and said, "The Mid-autumn Festival is coming soon. It should be cooler after the festival."

Hearing Yun Shang's words, Lady Shu thought for a while and said, "A banquet for the Mid-autumn Festival is held every year in the Palace. Now that the Emperor is not in the Palace, I don't know whether to hold it or not."

Yun Shang didn't expect that Lady Shu would bring up this topic herself. After a pause, she said naturally, "His majesty will come back before the Mid-autumn Festival, won't he?"
