Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 932

Hearing this, Uncle Liu trembled and looked up at Yun Shang in a daze. He opened his mouth wide and asked, "Are you the Empress?"

Yun Shang replied smilingly, "I know that your family was broken up because of that incident. You must have been tossing and turning to keep that secret in the past few years, but now it is difficult to keep the secret anymore. Your best choice now is to find a good backer to protect you and your family. Do you think there is anyone better than the Emperor and the Empress in the world?"

Uncle Liu lowered his head but said nothing.

Yun Shang didn't force him. She stood up and told him, "You are now in Lord Hua Guo's mansion of the Sthe of Xia. I will go back to the Palace this afternoon. You have time to consider it carefully. You can rest easy about this matter. Even if you don't promise me today, I won't hurt you or your family."

After saying that, Yun Shang turned around and walked out of the small room. Qian Zhuo ordered someone to lock the small room and whispered, "Your Majesty, how about letting the secret guards have a trial?"

Yun Shang smiled with assurance in her eyes, "It doesn't matter. He will agree to it. If he wants to see me, just send someone to report to me."

Qian Zhuo didn't know why Yun Shang was so sure, but she quickly followed her orders.

When they walked out of the yard, they saw the main hall. Lady Hua Guo was sitting inside, leaning against a chair, and saying something to a madam beside her. She seemed to be surprised to see Yun Shang come out, "You've settled everything inside so soon?"

Smilingly, Yun Shang said, "He refused to say anything. Just wait a little longer. I happen to be out of the palace, so I'd like to company and have a good talk with Grandma."

Lady Hua Guo was very pleased to hear that. She smiled and asked Yun Shang to sit next to her. She looked at Yun Shang up and down and asked with concern, "Usually, the imperial dinner in the palace is the best thing in the world. Why don't you get a little fat? On the contrary, you look thinner."

"I'm not thinner," Yun Shang answered with a smile on her face, "I still feel that I haven't lost weight since I gave birth to Bao'er. I want the imperial physician to prepare some medicine for me to lose some weight."

"No, I don't think it's good," Lady Hua Guo wanted to stop her. She smiled and patted Yun Shang on the hand, "Why? Are you used to living in the palace? Are you busy?

"I'm quite used to the life in the palace actually. If there is anything that I am quite headache about, it's probably because of the complexity in coming out of the palace. I'm not as comfortable as when I was in the Crown Prince's mansion. As for the affairs in the palace, since Lady Shu left, no one has taken care of the affairs in the palace. As a newcomer, I don't know how to deal with them. I want to have a strict management, but I am afraid that the servants might not obey me. But I am afraid if I don't manage it strictly, it will be of little help,"

as Yun Shang spoke, she held Lady Hua Guo's hand with a smile and then went on, "Grandma, can you give me some advice? I'm really at a loss. I have to let it go now. I don't care about anything at present there."

Hearing this, lady Hua Guo thought for a while and said, "That's a problem. Although I don't know what the imperial household is really going on, I think it's just a larger mansion. It's the same. Since you're new there, you have to take care of it. You should have your authority there, or no one will listen to you in the future. However, there is also a way to build your prestige, and we should make good use of the method."

Lady Hua Guo paused for a moment, and a flicker of hesitation flashed through her eyes. She then said softly, "As the saying goes, to kill a snake, you must first crush the head. In the inner palace, there are nine departments, which are Neishi Bureau, Imperial Household Department, the Imperial Hospital, Shanggong Bureau, Shangyi Bureau, Shangfu Bureau, Shangshi Bureau, Shangqin Bureau and Shang'gong Bureau. The stewards of every department are the overlord of their own territory. You have to carefully figure out which place is the most important. You should first choose a place where you think you can control people well, and take over that place."

Hearing this, Yun Shang began to think hard. Actually, all these nine departments were important, but the most important ones should be the Imperial Household Department and the Neishi Bureau. The other six ones were basically under the leadership of the Imperial Household Department, and all the servants in the palace were under the jurisdiction of the Neishi Bureau.

"You must have known where the vital points are. When dealing with the vital parts, you should avoid using the method of 'diamond cut diamond'. Those stewards are the elders in the palace, and I'm afraid they have some people in their hands. After all, they are the stewards. It's inappropriate for you to pull them down without any evidence or reason. By doing that way, they might be plotting against you secretly. You have to make a good plan on this matter. Even if you want him to die, you have to get both human testimony and material evidence, so that no one can find out any fault in it,"

while speaking, Lady Hua Guo seemed to remember something else and smiled, "I've heard that there is the most serious charge in the imperial household..."

Yun Shang was stunned, but she didn't understand what Lady Hua Guo meant. She looked at her with confusion, but Lady Hua Guo laughed and didn't go on. She just changed the subject, "How is Ling'er now?"

Yun Shang came to her senses and replied with a smile, "Everything is fine, but I still can't remember what happened thirty years ago. Now the former majesties are now living together in the Taihe Palace. It's a pleasure for them two to read books and play chess together every day."

Seeing the depressed look on Lady Hua Guo's face, Yun Shang smiled and suggested, "Grandma, if you miss her former majesty, you can go to the palace to see her."
