Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 857

The smile at the corners of Xia Huanyu's mouth was somewhat ironic. After listening to Xia Houjing for such a long time, he nodded and said, "Really? So you have made a great contribution. When this matter is settled, you will be rewarded for your contribution."

Hearing this, Xia Houjing seemed very happy. He kowtowed several times and pretended to be humble. "I just did a little bit to stabilize the state of Xia."

Xia Huanyu glanced at him coldly and said, "That's it for today. I'll deal with it later. The Palace needs to be cleaned up. You can go back home first."

Yun Shang, Luo Qingyan and Xia Houjing immediately obeyed the Emperor and slowly left the Taiji Palace.

The three walked down the long stone steps together. Xia Houjing turned to look at Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang, with a smile on his face. "I heard that today is the full moon party of the eldest son of Your Hignesses Crown Prince and Crown Princess. I wonder if I have the honor to have a drink at my nephew's party?"

Luo Qingyan didn't respond. Yun Shang smiled and said, "Of course, you are welcome."

Xia Houjing seemed to be very happy. He grinned and said, "Thank you, Your Highness Crown Princess. I've just entered the city and I've been in a mess after the long trip. It's not appropriate to meet guests like this. I'll go back to my mansion and change my clothes. Then I'll come to your mansion to congratulate you."

After getting down the stone steps, Xia Houjing stood in front of the carriage and waited for Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang to get on it. He didn't get on his carriage until their carriage started.

Yun Shang opened the curtain and looked at the staggering figure of the seventh Prince. The corners of her mouth were slightly curled up. "It's getting more and more difficult to see through the seventh Prince."

Luo Qingyan smiled, "You don't need to see through him. Spare your time to look at me."

It took Yun Shang a long time to realize that Luo Qingyan was flirting with her. She glared at Luo Qingyan and stopped talking.

Luo Qingyan smiled and stopped joking. "He has a grudge against you when you were in the Lingxi City. You need to be careful."

Without Luo Qingyan's reminder, Yun Shang knew she should be careful. She nodded and leaned on Luo Qingyan's shoulder, thinking about something.

After a while, Yun Shang frowned and suddenly sat up straight. "It suddenly occurred to me that Hua Yutong hadn't shown up at the banquet."

Luo Qingyan turned to look at Yun Shang. After a long silence, he said slowly, "I didn't say anything since I saw you have a good relationship with Hua Yutong. But you must have found something wrong. I'm afraid Empress Hua is not on the same way with us. We can't keep her."

Hearing this, Yun Shang was in a daze. After a long silence, she lowered her head.

She had found many unusual things. She had thought that Hua Yutong might have been bribed by the seventh Prince. She had also sent someone to follow her, but she hadn't investigated it thoroughly. In fact, Hua Yutong was one of the few friends in the State of Xia that she could talk to. She still had some expectations for this friendship.

But Luo Qingyan wouldn't have said such words for no reason. Since he had said it, he must be sure.

Yun Shang's hands trembled slightly, and she closed her eyes to prevent the emotions in them from leaking out.

Luo Qingyan held Yun Shang in his arms and said softly, "It's not impossible for you to keep her. But you have to promise that she will never become our enemy."

Yun Shang's eyes lit up. She looked up at Luo Qingyan and nodded with a smile. "It's so kind of you. Your Highness."

Seeing that she was happy, Luo Qingyan also smiled. He reached out his hand to touch the hair and said softly, "You always address me as Uncle, Your Highness, and Your Highness Crown Prince, which makes me feel a little uncomfortable. Would you not address me in a formal manner when we were alone?"

Yun Shang blinked her eyes and looked up at Luo Qingyan. She was in a good mood and said, "What do you want me to address you?" Qingyan?"

Luo Qingyan smiled, "I think I'll be happier if you call me husband or dear."

Hearing this, Yun Shang couldn't help pinching Luo Qingyan's waist and said with a smile, "Mind your words, old man!"

Luo Qingyan's face changed. "My lady, do you think I'm too old?"

Yun Shang blinked and nodded without hesitation, "Yes, after all, you are almost twice my age." Then she couldn't help laughing. She stretched out a finger, raised Luo Qingyan's chin, looked over and said, "Well, but you are so handsome. I'll make do with you." Luo Qingyan frowned as if he was very distressed. He bent over and bit Yun Shang on the shoulder.

Yun Shang screamed, "How could you bite me?"
