Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 924

The letter was not long. Yun Shang soon finished it. Then she read it again with a deep look in her eyes.

In the letter, Xia Huanyu repeatedly asked Liu Yinfeng not to tell Xia Houjing about that thing. And he said that he only wanted to keep what happened in that year a secret forever and asked Liu Yinfeng not to reveal it unless he had no other choice. Otherwise, it would be difficult to deal with as so many people involved. Besides, Xia Huanyu mentioned in the letter that he had Luo Qingyan's promise that he wouldn't kill Xia Houjing under any circumstance.

After reading it, Yun Shang was totally confused.

She had three doubts in her mind. First, what was the thing that Xia Huanyu warned Liu Yinfeng not to tell Xia Houjing? Second, what was the secret that Xia Huanyuan tried so hard to hide it? Third, why did Xia Huanyu tell Liu Yinfeng about that he had asked Luo Qingyan not to hurt Xia Houjing?

Yun Shang frowned. She remembered that Liu Yinfeng also begged Luo Qingyan and her to spare Xia Houjing's life.

She could understand why Xia Huanyu and Liu Yinfeng wanted to keep Xia Houjing alive. For Xia Huanyu, Xia Houjing was his favorite son. For Liu Yinfeng, Xia Houjing was the only child of Lady Liu.

However, after reading the letter, she felt that there seemed to be some hidden secret in it. A question again came into Yun Shang's mind. What was the relationship between Xia Huanyu and Liu Yinfeng? In the court of theState of Xia, Liu Yinfeng was undoubtedly a very special existence. Liu Yinfeng didn't have an official position, but was highly valued by Xia Huanyu.

At first, when she heard that Liu Yinfeng was hailed as a child prodigy when he was very young and that he once had affection for Lady Liu, she thought that it was because Xia Huanyu appreciated Liu Yinfeng's talent, and because he felt sorry for Lady Liu, he adopted an accommodating attitude towards Liu Yinfeng's choice. Liu Yinfeng was indifferent to fame and fortune and didn't want to be an official, so Xia Huanyu didn't force him.

But now, Yun Shang felt that this reason seemed too farfetched...

All kinds of questions flooded her mind. Yun Shang felt that the State of Xia was full of secrets. However, the top priority was to find out one thing, that was the reason why there had been no news of Liu Yinfeng for so long. Was it because Liu Yinfeng was trapped or because he had betrayed them? Or, Liu Yinfeng just pretended to join into their camp at the very first beginning?

Yun Shang's heart seemed to be gripped. She bit her lips and closed her eyes to calm herself down.

No, no matter what, she had to discuss it with Luo Qingyan. If Liu Yinfeng might have betrayed them, they had to think of another way to prevent the situation from getting worse. There must be something that Xia Huanyu had hidden from them, and it might be of great importance.

Yun Shang shook her head and thought she couldn't believe Xia Huanyu anymore.

She opened her eyes and looked at the beautiful handwriting on the letter. Yun Shang squinted, thinking that Hua Ling might be a good ally. Now that Hua Ling hadn't regained her memory, she might not have any special feelings for Xia Huanyu. The reason why she agreed to go back to the Jin city was that she owed Luo Qingyan. However, Xia Huanyu had a deep love for Hua Ling. If love became a battle, the more loving one would lose.

However, Liu Yinfeng...

Yun Shang narrowed her eyes. Liu Yinfeng didn't seem to be that cunning. But if Liu Yinfeng worked for Xia Houjing, then Xia Houjing would really get great help from him. And he would be a great threat to them.

Yun Shang had made all kinds of assumptions in her mind, but she didn't think of a solution.

She tossed and turned for more than an hour and hadn't fallen asleep when Qian Zhuo came to call her. Yun Shang answered. She thought for a while and finally put the letter back into her sleeve. Then she sat up and lifted the bed curtain.

Qian Zhuo helped Yun Shang up and helped her get dressed. It was still early, and the sun hadn't set yet. Yun Shang came to the couch and sat down. After Qian Zhuo poured Yun Shang a cup of tea, Yun Shang took the cup and raised her head. "What have Their Former Majesties been doing in the Taihe Palace these days? His Former Majesty had been busy for most of his life. I'm afraid he is not used to it when he suddenly has a lot of time."

Hearing this, Qian Zhuo looked up at Yun Shang and smiled, "Exactly. His Former Majesty feels bored these days and asked Her Former Majesty to play chess and paint with him every day. Sometimes, he just read books and practiced swordsmanship to kill time. As for Her Former Majesty, she is quite used to the peaceful life. She just transcribes Buddhist scriptures and reads books every day."

Yun Shang nodded, as if lost in thought. Then Qian Zhuo continued, "Yesterday, I heard His Former Majesty say that he would take her to travel around in a few days. He said that although he had been the Emperor of the State of Xia for more than thirty years, he had never really enjoyed the charming scenery of the state, which was a great regret for him. Now that he is free, so he wants to make up for it."

Hearing this, Yun Shang's eyes flashed. Travel around? Now it was obviously not a good time to travel as the State of Xia was suffering from domestic trouble and foreign invasion. What Xia Huanyu was up to? Did he want to go to Liucang City under the guise of travelling?

The more Yun Shang thought about it, the more likely it was. She was very worried. She looked at Qin Yi and asked, "Has His Majesty said when he'll come?"

Qin Yi shook her head in a hurry. She looked at Yun Shang's face and said softly, "No. But it's almost dinner time. His Majesty should be coming soon."

Yun Shang nodded and kept silent.
