It was probably because of the thought that Prince Jing was leaving tomorrow that they stayed in the hall. Yun Shang asked servants to prepare a beautiful couch for Prince Jing. Half leaned on the couch to read a book, while Prince Jing sat behind the table and read the pamphlet presented by the secret guards. She was reading a book, and the whole room was quiet except the sound of her turning the pages.
When Yun Shang woke up the next morning, she found Prince Jing was not by her side. She reached out her hand to feel the bed. The bed next to her was already cold. He must have been gone for a long time. She sat up after a while. Hearing the noise in the room, Qian Yin hurried into the room.
"How long has his highness been away?" Yun Shang said gently.
Qian Yin quietly observed Yun Shang's face, and saw her as calm as usual. She said gently, "An hour and a half, his highness saw that Princess Yun Shang had a good sleep, so he told me not to disturb you."
Yun Shang nodded and asked Qian Yin to prepare the toiletries, but her mind was in a mess. If he left, then it would take a long time to see.
Yun Shang spent the whole day in her palace, browsing through a book on the bed and absent-minded. She used to lead a comfortable life like this when she was alone. But now, it seemed that she was used to the company of Prince Jing, which made her feel a little bit uncomfortable without him by her side.
After Prince Jing left, Yun Shang thought that since Li Jingyan and Xia Houjing were no longer keeping watch on the Imperial City, Ning Qian must be bored in the palace, so she sent someone to call Ning Qian over. Ning Qian made someone told the people that the Empress was not in good health, and Ning Qian made a secret guard disguise as the Empress.
Emperor Ning decided to leave for Imperial City five days later after Prince Jing had left. Yun Shang decided to see Jing Wenxi in prison.
Jing Wenxi seemed to have a bad life in the prison, in rags, but she was still like a high miss. She didn't get angry when she saw Yun Shang and called her with a poker face, "Princess Hui Guo."
Yun Shang asked the guards to open the door, and entered. "Now Miss Jing should call me Lady Jing."
Jing Wenxi smiled with contempt, "How long do you think you can live as his wife? Why did Prince Jing marry you? Why don't you think about it? Are you afraid of the answer, or are you unwilling to do that? Prince Jing is just interested in your identity as a princess. He is an ambitious Prince and you are able to help him a lot. If one day he no longer needs you, I would like to see how he dumped you. "
