An Eight-year-old Princess novel Chapter 147

Ning Qian nodded and added, "I have sent spies to all the mansions in the Imperial City. There are 73 subordinates in the Grand Councilor's Mansion. The army on the border are ready. All the spies come from innocent families. You won't get implicated. They are smart and will soon get promoted. They will help us."

Yun Shang nodded with praise, "I believe you are competent."

Ning Qian took out a bunch of parchments. She handed them to Yun Shang and explained, "I sieved out pieces of useful information that has been collected recently and wrote them down."

Yun Shang took the parchments and scanned them quickly. She wrinkled her brows and took out a flint. Then she threw the flint to the plate on the table and burned the parchments.

"Ok, I see. My mother will go into labor soon. Send more people to the temporary imperial palace. I don't trust the midwife from the Imperial City. Send more credible midwives there. Ensure the safety of my mother and her baby. Use any means necessary." Yun Shang replied in a low voice.

"Yes, My Lady." Ning Qian answered. Yun Shang beckoned her to leave with a wave of her hand.

When she left, Yun Shang went to Prince Jing's bedroom. As she entered, she saw Prince Jing lying on the couch. He was wearing a white tunic. His coronet had been removed and his hair was spread out on the couch. He always seemed to be cold and indifferent. But at that time, he looks endearing and amiable.

Yun Shang paused before entering.

"Have you finished your conversation?" Prince Jing looked up at Yun Shang and asked. She had seen many handsome men in her previous and present life. The sight of Prince Jing still froze her though. Her heart nearly stopped beating.

Yun Shang stared at him for quite a while. When she got over her shock, she took her eyes off him and bowed her head. She didn't notice that Prince Jing smiled happily.

"Yes, thank you, uncle." Yun Shang answered in a low voice.

Prince Jing replied with a mere "Hum." He didn't speak. Yun Shang didn't look up, so she missed his expression. After an awkward silence, she said, "Qian Qian told me Ning Ye is an impostor. I know Wang Jinhuan investigated Ning Ye after the Spring Outing incident. So I guess you would know about it."

"Hum?" Prince Jing raised his eyebrows and asked, "What? I don't know. What did Lady Qian Qian tell you?"

Yun Shang was surprised. She looked up and made eye contact with the Prince. She looked down and said, "Qian Qian said that he had been rescued from drowning and changed a lot since then. His character, his hobbies, and his handwriting are totally different."

"Hum?" Yun Shang was distracted by Prince Jing's appearance. This more or less pleased Prince Jing. He raised his eyebrows, smiled, and then said causally, "Qian Qian said that Ning Ye colluded with Cangjue Qingsu's subordinates. I guess Ning Ye is a spy from the State of Yelang."

"Hum, I know." Prince Jing answered in a low voice. And then he burst out laughing.
