An Eight-year-old Princess novel Chapter 1396

Wang Wanzhi went on calmly, "Maybe Official Cao thought he could see through people. If he mentions this again next time, I will try to deal with him. "

Yun Shang nodded, "You always know what to do. It's up to you."

Anyway, she was clear that Cao Han might not be able to appear in front of her soon.

As Yun Shang spoke, she unfolded the paper and had a look. As Luo Qingyan expected, there were more than 10 places of properties written on the paper, followed by the name of the person who bought each house, when it was bought, and who really owned it.

Yun Shang smiled. She and the Emperor had guessed that Cao Han would tell them seven or eight places to be distributed to the secret guards. But they didn't expect that he was so powerful. What he had presented were not seven or eight places, but nearly twenty!

The Cao clan really thought highly of them.

Yun Shang took a glance at the paper and put it on the imperial table, "Okay. After the morning court tomorrow, you'll tell Cao Han that I have known it and have discussed it with his majesty carefully. At about 9 o'clock tomorrow evening, his majesty and I will arrange secret guards to investigate all these places he has mentioned and let him deal with them carefully in the Cao mansion. Don't let them find out anything."

Wang Wanzhi noted down Yun Shang's words and left.

When Luo Qingyan returned to the Taiji Palace, Yun Shang told him what had happened.

"At nine p.m.?" Luo Qingyan was a little surprised, "It's already the evening time, and the city has been under a night ban. This time?"

Yun Shang certainly understood what Luo Qingyan meant. She nodded and said, "Xia Houjing must have been hiding from the limelight before. Today is the best opportunity. He will try his best to contact his own people, his previous subordinates, the officials and so on to discuss something important.

Most of the officials in the court are under the supervision of your majesty and me. If several officials don't go back at night at the same time, it will cause our suspicion. Therefore, Xia Houjing will definitely choose a place where he can stay blatantly without causing any suspicion after the night ban. "

A cunning light flashed through Yun Shang's eyes, "Tell me, your majesty. Where will this place be?"

"A brothel?"

Yun Shang smiled, "Yes, a brothel.

Brothels are good places. There are many brothels in the city. Xia Houjing will definitely feel that even if we guess what he is thinking, we will definitely not know which one he is in. We can't investigate it one by one.

But he probably won't think of it anyway that we won't investigate it at all. Although I choose the time of 9 p.m., it is the most lively time in the brothel. There are all kinds of people in this kind of places. If anything happens, it will definitely be spread quickly.

In my opinion, although it's late at night, it's very quiet everywhere in the city. If anything happens or any noise astir comes out then, it will be more abrupt and eye-catching in this quiet city."

Luo Qingyan nodded, "Okay, then do as you say."

At night, the secret guards were sent out early in secret, leaving only more than ten people guarding near the Taiji Palace.

Yun Shang asked someone to set up the chessboard and played chess with Luo Qingyan.

"Your Majesty has been busy all day long. I have never seen you play chess with anyone since I moved to the Taiji Palace. Why are your majesty still so good at chess? I haven't played chess for a long time, and I feel it quite exceeds my ability. "

Luo Qingyan smiled, "Maybe it's because I'm always playing chess in my mind, though I don't play chess with others."

"What?" Yun Shang was surprised, 'Is he playing chess in his mind every day?'

"The checks and balances in the imperial court as well as the disputes between countries are all chess games for me. If I make a mistake, I'll lose everything. "

Yun Shang understood what he meant. She thought for a moment and then nodded, "Yes, you're right."

With a teapot in his hand, Liu Wenan came and served tea for them two. He glanced at the sand clock on the bookshelf and reminded in a low voice, "Your Majesties, it's already nine o'clock at night."
