As soon as they got in the carriage, Bao'er fell asleep. Qin Yi took Bao'er and looked up at Yun Shang with confusion in her eyes. "Your Highness is forcing the the seventh princess like this. Won't it make her hate you more?"
Yun Shang smiled, lost in thought. After a long moment, she said, "I don't care. What else do I care about her now?"
When she returned home, she saw Luo Qingyan also there, accompanied by a young woman. Although the woman was not beautiful, she had a quiet temperament. Luo Qingyan was standing with his back to her under the eaves of the garden house and talking to the woman. His face was rare gentle.
Yun Shang raised her eyebrows and saw Luo Qingyan turn around before she walked over. Yun Shang smiled faintly and walked to Luo Qingyan. "Why did you come back so early today?" After that, she turned to look at the woman with a smile. "This lady is..."
"I told you yesterday that I wanted to find a woman who knows medical skills to ensure the health of Chengye. This is Dr. Zheng's disciple, Chen Miaosi. She knows some medical skills and poison techniques. From now on, let her take care of Chengye. Later, you can arrange a yard and two maids for Dr. Chen." Luo Qingyan said softly.
Luo Qingyan did mention it yesterday, but Yun Shang didn't expect that Luo Qingyan would keep it in mind and find a suitable person so soon. Yun Shang nodded slightly, "Yes, I will take good care of Dr. Chen."
Then Yun Shang turned to Qin Yi and said, "Give Bao'er to me. Find a quiet yard and lead Dr. Chen there. Dr. Chen, if there is anything you need, just tell Qin Yi. I'll ask Qin Yi to bring some maids to you later."
Chen Miaosi hurriedly curtsied and replied, "Thank you, Your Highness Crown Princess." Then she left after Qin Yi.
Yun Shang's eyes fell on the back of Chen Miaosi. She raised her head and looked at Luo Qingyan with a smile. "I thought you had found a sister for me, but it seemed you made me happy for nothing?"
"Happy?" Luo Qingyan smiled and tapped on Yun Shang's forehead, "Do you think I haven't noticed it? You must be close to losing your temper. Others might not know, but how could I not know that? My Shang'er is a jealous woman."
Yun Shang glared at Luo Qingyan and snorted, "Nonsense. Don't flatter yourself. You know who is jealous."
Luo Qingyan nodded, "Of course I am also a jealous type." Then she held Yun Shang's hand again. "I heard that you went to the Seventh Prince's mansion? What happened?"
"Nothing. I just thought of what happened to Hua Yutong, so I went to add insult to injury." Yun Shang raised her head with a smug smile.
Luo Qingyan shook his head, showing obvious disbelief on his face. "I know you well, I'm afraid you don't have the heart to do such a thing. Although Hua Yutong framed you, you still remember that he had once been good to you. So you want to pull her before she falls to the bottom."
There was still a smile on Yun Shang's face, but it faded a lot. There was a touch of sadness in her eyes. "Maybe it's because I suffered a lot in my previous life, so when I meet someone who is better to me in this life, I always want to try my best to keep that warmth."
Luo Qingyan held Yun Shang in his arms and said softly, "You want to pull her, but she might not want to come up. Maybe it's painful for her to fall to the bottom of the valley, but the one she loves is there. She may not feel it's a bad thing. Love is like drinking poisonous wine with a smile, willing to bear all the bitterness and resentment."
Yun Shang was still a little confused. After a while, she suddenly laughed. "Your Highness, it's rare for you to say something so meaningful."
Luo Qingyan thought for a moment and said, "You might some rumors recently. Don't believe any of them.
"Oh?" Hearing this, Yun Shang knew what he meant. What Empress Hua said was true. Xia Huanyuwas trying to win over some important court officials for Luo Qingyan, and the best way to win them over was to marry their daughters. Pretending not to know, Yun Shang tilted her head to look at Luo Qingyan and said in a playful voice, "Did Your Highness mess around with women outside?"
Seeing the rare seriousness on Luo Qingyan's face, Yun Shang felt warm in her heart. She said seriously, "Okay, I see."
Luo Qingyan was satisfied. He rubbed Yun Shang's soft hair and said with a smile, "I'm going to the Censorate. I won't have lunch at home. You got up early today and you could take a nap after lunch."
Yun Shang nodded and watched Luo Qingyan leave. Then she took Bao'er from Hua'er and slowly walked towards the South Yard.
However, Yun Shang didn't expect that the rumor Luo Qingyan said had reached her ears as soon as she woke up from the nap in the afternoon. It was Qian Yin who specially hurried here to report it to her.
"I saw His Highness and a woman having lunch at the Longfeng Tower. The woman kept smiling at him, which made me sick." Qian Yin said with a look of disgust, "I've sent someone to investigate. That woman is the daughter of the Vice Censor, and her name is Ji Wan'niang.
