Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 937

Yun Shang lowered her head and answered in a low voice.

Soon after that, Bao'er yawned and closed his eyes, as if he wanted to sleep. Yun Shang looked down at Bao'er and sighed. She thought she should protect her baby better. Now Bao'er had a different identity. He was the prince, and the only son of Luo Qingyan's.

Although she was the only one in Luo Qingyan's imperial household and there was no scramble for favor, there were still many covetous people around. Among the sons of the former Emperor, although the nineteenth prince was weak and young, he would grow up. And the former Emperor's twenty-first prince was just four years old. No one knew how many people in the dark were coveting Bao'er's life with murderous eyes. Even if she had a single careless error, her baby would be exposed to danger.

Yun Shang held Bao'er's little hand and made up her mind to protect her baby. She would rather kill one thousand people by mistake than let go of anyone who wanted to hurt her baby.

Luo Qingyan put his arm around Yun Shang's shoulder and comforted, "Don't worry. I will protect you and Chengye."

Yun Shang smiled and let go of Bao'er's hand. Gradually, she calmed herself down. The former life had passed. This life was here to come. She wouldn't let the tragedy happen again, never.

"Your Majesties..." Qin Yi's voice came through the bead curtain, "The mouse is ready." Luo Qingyan frowned and asked in confusion, "What are you going to do with the mouse?"

Yun Shang raised her voice and said to Qin Yi, "Let the imperial physician examine it. Don't need to wait for me."

After she finished her words, she raised her head and explained to Luo Qingyan, "I suspect that someone has done something to the wet nurse, so I asked her to bring some milk. But the problem with the milk is how to examine it. So I asked someone to catch a mouse and let it drink the milk. If there is something wrong with it, the mouse will tell from its reaction."

After explaining, Yun Shang stood up and suggested, "Let's go out and have a look." She then ordered Hua'er and Qinghao to guard Bao'er in the palace, so that if there was something wrong, they could report it in time.

When Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan walked out of the inner hall, they saw a imperial physician pour the milk into a cup in the cage where two mice were drinking together with their heads down. There was still a plain cloth cushion in the cage, but no one knew what it was used for.

Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan sat down on the main seats. Qin Yi served tea in a hurry. Yun Shang took a sip of the tea and stared at the two rats in the small cage.

Both mice didn't move for a long time. Yun Shang frowned and looked up at the imperial physician standing aside. "Is there nothing wrong with the milk?" But Bao'er only drank water and milk, and if there was no problem with either of the two, then what happened?

While she was thinking, she saw that one of the mice seemed to have sneezed, and there was a trace of blood on the plain cloth cushion on the cage.

Yun Shang focused on the blood, and her eyes showed a flash of red with anger too.

Both Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan stood up and walked to the cage where the mice were locked. They found not only the sneezing mouse, but also the other one shrank still aside and there was some blood on the cloth cushion under its body.

Yun Shang clenched her hands in her sleeves. She paused for a while and said, "Take them away. Don't make the table dirty."

Chen Ke took the mouse cage away in a hurry, and the room was quiet at once. Yun Shang stood still with a cold expression in her eyes. After a while, she turned to the wet nurse and asked, "What's going on?"

The maid's eyes were also full of confusion, "I don't know, I..."

Before she could finish her words, Yun ShangYun Shang turned around and sat back on the chair. In fact, Yun Shang was also very clear that all these couldn't be done by the wet nurse. It took Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan a lot of effort to find the wet nurse. She was absolutely reliable. And if it were she who had done these, she should have a better way not to be found. She would not have left any evidence. But today, judging from the current evidence, the biggest suspect was clearly pointed to the wet nurse.

Yun Shang raised her head and looked at Chen Miaosi and the imperial physicians by saying, "The prince is fine now. Thank you for your help."

Everyone understood what Yun Shang meant. She was about to search for the thief. She didn't want them to be present, so they all said hurriedly, "We're leaving now."

Yun Shang nodded and watched them leave the main hall one by one. Only the staff were left in the main hall at present. Yun Shang looked up at the the wet nurse and said, "Come here, and stretch out your hands."

The maid quickly responded and stretched out her hands. Yun Shang put her hand on one of them and felt her pulse carefully. Then she raised her head and said, "Stick out your tongue."

The maid did as she said. Yun Shang was silent for a moment before she said, "You've got pathogenic dryness, but because you are an adult, the impact is not too serious. Think about it carefully. What have you eaten and drunk these days. Qin Yi, prepare the pen, ink, paper and inkstone."
