An Eight-year-old Princess novel Chapter 1284

In order not to arouse any suspicion, Yun Shang deliberately sent people to the Imperial Library two days later after Wang Wenxiang's death to take out the two books, "Spring and Autumn" and "Short and Long".

Qian Zhuo went there in person and soon she brought back the two books.

Yun Shang took the books and asked in a low voice, "When you asked for the books, what was Zhou Gao's reaction to it?"

"Steward Zhou looked surprised to hear that your majesty wanted these two books. He asked me why your majesty suddenly wanted these two books?"

Yun Shang nodded, "These two books are all classic works. And just because they are too classic, most people will learn these two books at the beginning of their primary school. Therefore, although these two books are kept in the Imperial Library, very few people will read them."

Qian Zhuo nodded and then smiled, "I told Steward Zhou that your majesty wanted to get the two books for the Crown Prince to learn. I told him that your majesty favors the two books very much all the time, so you wanted to teach the Crown Prince the two books in person."

"Did he believe it?"

"He must have believed it. He told me he had heard that the Crown Prince had got the Grand Tutor, who was a young man of more than 20 year old and he asked me if I had seen him before."

Yun Shang replied, "I see."

Then she didn't ask any more questions but just picked up one of the two books and read it quickly.

Yun Shang was there turning the pages at a very fast speed. She didn't stop until more than half of the book was flipped.

"Yes, your majesty?" asked Qian Zhuo. She knew what Yun Shang was looking for. Seeing that Yun Shang suddenly stopped, she couldn't help asking.

Yun Shang narrowed her eyes, turned the book to the back and flipped two pages, and then carefully stroked that page.

"Your Majesty, have you found anything?" Looking at the words on both sides of the page, which seemed to be no different from the ordinary pages, Qian Zhuo became more and more confused.

"Bring me a pair of scissors," Yun Shang ordered.

Qian Zhuo fetched the scissors quickly. Yun Shang took the scissors and cut at a width of about two pieces of hair along the edge of the book.

As soon as it was cut open, Qian Zhuo saw that the page seemed to be divided into two pages.

"Are these two pages stuck together?" asked Qian Zhuo with her eyes widened.

Yun Shang nodded while cutting more carefully.

After carefully cutting on the three sides, Yun Shang took out a piece of paper as thin as the wings of a cicada from inside.

"Take a blank piece of paper and pad it. It's too thin. I'm afraid I'll break it by accident."

Qian Zhuo hurriedly fetched a piece of blank paper according to Yun Shang's instruction. Yun Shang put the paper she found out from the book on the blank paper and saw some indistinct patterns on it.

It was also a map.

Yun Shang pressed her lips and quickly found a red dot on the paper. Then she lowered her eyes and stared at the map for a long time, memorizing every line and place name on the map.

"Get me the brush and paper."

After Qian Zhuo got ready paper and the writhing brush, Yun Shang drew the map on the paper again and checked it one by one. Then she put well the two pieces of paper and picked up another book.

As Yun Shang expected, there was a map on the other book in the same way.

Yun Shang noted down the two maps and then drew them out carefully. Then she breathed a sigh of relief, took a box, and put inside the two original maps as thin as the wings of a cicada. Then she handed the box to Qian Zhuo ordering, "Find a hidden place to put it away."

Then she handed over the two pieces of paper on which she had drawn maps, "Give these two maps to the leader of the spies in the city. Ask him to find the maps of every city and county in the State of Xia. Then from those maps, find out these two places on the maps I gave to them, and dispatch some spies out to check these two places carefully to see if there is any clue."

Qian Zhuo took the two maps over and asked, "Your Majesty, won't you show them to his majesty?"

Yun Shang paused for a moment. Thinking of what Luo Yi had said before, she shook her head and replied, "Wait a minute. Don't worry."

She decided to wait until the time came when the spies found out the clues on the maps, as well as when Ning Qian was able to get the secret guards sent from the State of Ning. Then she would pretend that she had just found the two maps.

A sound came from behind. Yun Shang turned around and saw Qian Zhuo coming in again.

"Your majesty, I have ordered everything well."

Yun Shang nodded, "There's one more thing. Send someone to ask the leader of the spies what the places are related to the words "in the center of the water "in the Jin City? Ask him to make a list for me. "

"In the center of the water?

Is it related to the words of 'in the center of the water'? What are your majesty looking for? "

"I suspect that according to the meaning revealed by Wang Wenxiang before, the hiding place of the maid named Yingyue is related to these words. She is the maid who entered the Xiangyi Palace with my help, got the news from Lady Li, and then left the palace again with Wang Wenxiang's assistance, "

said Yun Shang. Then she ordered, "By the way, ask a painter to draw the face of the maid and hand it over to the leader of the spies.

Do you still remember the appearance of the maid?"

After thinking for a while, Qian Zhuo replied, "I only remember some of it, a little blurry. If I see her again, I will definitely recognize her. But it's not easy to ask me to describe her appearance and ask the painter to draw her out. "

Yun Shang waved her hand and said, "All right then. Let me do it myself."

Then she picked up a pen and quickly spread out the paper, and began to work on it effectively.

Soon, a portrait was drawn.

Qian Zhuo walked closer and took a look at it. She nodded, "Yes, yes. It's exactly what she looks like. Your majesty, you have a good memory. I was totally confused. I just vaguely remembered that she had a pretty face, willow eyebrows, a small and straight nose as well as a small mouth. I didn't remember anything else. "

Yun Shang smiled, "Well, there's no need to flatter me. Go ahead with your business."

Then Qian Zhuo hurried out of the room with the portrait.
