Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 912

Luo Qingyan was also a little annoyed. "Wang Yuanjun is always on Xia Houjing's side. He must come with ill intent. I'll go and have a look."

Yun Shang frowned and murmured, "But Your Majesty hasn't had lunch yet."

Luo Qingyan smiled, "Are you afraid that I will be hungry in the Palace? It's okay. I'll ask Liu Wenan to prepare some food later and I'll have lunch in Taiji Palace. You don't need to wait for me."

Yun Shang had to agree and sent Luo Qingyan out of Weiyang Palace.

After Luo Qingyan left, Yun Shang fell silent. The eunuch reported that Wang Yuanjun and the Minister of Personnel are requesting to see His Former Majesty as they suspected that Luo Qingyan had usurped the throne.

Yun Shang squinted. Xia Huanyu issued the imperial edict to pass down the throne to Luo Qingyan in the presence of all the civil and military officials. All the officials were witnesses. But Wang Yuanjun jumped out at this time. He must be holding something in his hand.

What could it be?

He said that he wanted to see Xia Huanyu. But didn't he know that Xia Huanyu would prove Luo Qingyan innocent as soon as he shown up?

Thinking of this, Yun Shang was a little worried. She wanted to send someone to inquire about it, but she didn't. She just sighed and didn't say anything. "Your Majesty, do I need to ask the kitchen to cook less dishes as His majesty won't have lunch in the palace?" Qin Yi asked softly with concern in her eyes.

Yun Shang thought for a while and shook her head. "Don't bother. You can have dinner with me later. Tell the other servants to leave."

Qin Yi nodded and stopped talking. Yun Shang took out a book and read it. But she just couldn't concentrate on it. After thinking for a long time, she raised her head and said, "Send someone to Taihe Palace to check on Their Former Majesties."

"Their Former Majesties? Didn't Your Majesty just come back from the Taihe Palace?" Qin Yi was confused.

Yun Shang nodded. She had thought about it for a long time just now. Since Wang Yuanjun kept asking to see Xia Huanyu, could it be that he was sure that Xia Huanyu was not able to show up? That might be the reason why he was so unscrupulous.

But just as Qin Yi said, when she just came out of Taihe Palace, Xia Huanyu and Hua Ling were both fine. How could someone take them away in such a short time? However, Yun Shang was still unsure. She nodded heavily and said, "Bring two bowls of bamboo fungus soup to them and check whether or not they are safe."

Qin Yi nodded in a hurry and left the inner hall.

The window was suddenly opened with a bang. Yun Shang was startled. She looked up and found the wind was strong outside, which made the leaves kept rustling and even blew the window open.

Yun Shang stood up and walked to the window. She saw several servants cleaning the yard outside. A eunuch carrying a bucket stumbled over a branch that had been blown to the ground and most of the water in the bucket was spilled. A maid in cyan frowned and pointed at the eunuch with her hands akimbo. Yun Shang couldn't hear what the maid was talking about because she was a little far away. Judging from her tone and expression, she must be scolding him.

The eunuch stood still, bowed his head and said nothing. Several servants approached them, but no one helped him. Yun Shang looked at the eunuch and kept silent for a moment. Then she raised her hand and closed the window.

After closing the window, Yun Shang picked up the book and read it for a while. Then Qin Yi returned to the palace. "Your Majesty, His Former Majesty and Her Former Majesty are safe. They are playing chess."

Yun Shang nodded. She was more confused about Wang Yuanjun's behavior.

"Your Majesty, lunch is ready." Hua'er poked her head in and said with a smile.

Yun Shang replied, "Since His Majesty is not here, just set the lunch in the inner hall."

Hua'er answered and asked the maids behind her to come in and put the dishes on the table. Yun Shang stood up, walked to the table and sat down. She waved away the servants in the hall, and asked them to call Chen Miaosi over. Then they sat down around the table and began to have lunch.
