An Eight-year-old Princess novel Chapter 243

Perhaps it was because of the selection, Emperor Ning felt that he owed a lot to Lady Jin, so he agreed to her request without hesitation, even if this request was somewhat difficult to accept.

Emperor Ning was afraid that Yun Shang would suffer losses at the frontier, so he sent a small group of secret guards to follow her and obey her orders. Along with which, he also presented an imperial edict, a golden medal, and a sacred sword that could make Yun Shang act without waiting for the Emperor's approval. When the imperial edict arrived at Prince Jing's Mansion, Yun Shang was also surprised. Although she knew Lady Jin agreed with it and it should be no problem, she didn't expect that it came so soon.

Seeing the astonishment on the butler's face, Yun Shang worried that something unexpected would happen if she didn't tell Prince Jing about it in time. So she asked Qian Yin to pack up her belongings and set out with her people the next morning.

It was inconvenient for a woman to walk outside. Yun Shang changed into men's clothes, and they had arrived at the outside of KY City after about ten days.

It seemed that the KY City hadn't been influenced by the war at all. The people in the city were still leisurely and the street was full of people and seemed to be prosperous. Yun Shang couldn't help frowning, feeling that this situation was somewhat strange.

Yun Shang left all her guards outside the city. When she came into the KY City, she didn't go to the Qi Mansion directly. Instead, she found a fancy tavern and went inside.

There was no private room in the tavern, so Yun Shang sat in the hall on the second floor. After ordering some food, Yun Shang looked up at the waiter and said with a smile, "Hello, we came from the NX City. I heard that the KY City was fighting, so I come here to see if my business in the family is affected. But, why does it look like that we are not fighting at all?"

The NX City was a prosperous city in the State of Ning. Yun Shang was afraid that she would say that she came from the Imperial City to attract the attention of others, so she just made up the story casually.

The waiter grinned and said, "You don't know? We thought we would have to close the door if the war began. But it turned out that the people of the State of Xia are afraid of General Qi's fame. It's more than a month now, but the soldiers of the State of Xia only dare to station dozens of miles. Only occasionally send someone to see, like a turtle, they don't dare to come at all. I don't think we can get into a fight. General Qi is a major general of the State of Ning. He has a strong force. I'm afraid he's as mighty as Prince Jing."

Yun Shang put her hands on the table and talked with the waiter with a smile, "Really? I was worried for nothing. With General Qi in charge, our KY City must be safe without mishap. "

She gave the attendant two taels of silver and sent him away. But she frowned. The leader of the State of Xia was the Crown Prince and his counsellor was Liu Yinfeng. If she didn't know the situation of the generals, she would believe the waiter right away. However, she heard Prince Jing mention it before, and then she looked through some documents. Now listening to the waiter's words, the doubts in her heart became stronger.

"Master, is General Qi really so powerful?" Dressed in casual clothes, Qian Yin stared at Yun Shang, her eyes sparkling.

Yun Shang chuckled coldly, "Yes, of course, of course, arrogantly powerful." As well as the people in the KY City who admired and believed him.

As the dishes were served, Yun Shang surmised what Liu Yinfeng was thinking about. He may do this for two purposes. One was to make the guards in the other two cities on the alert to consume the endurance of the other two city soldiers; the other was to let Qi Lang feel that since the State of Xia was afraid of him and dared not attack him, they were more arrogant and waited for Qi Lang to relax his vigilance. Then he would launch an attack all of a sudden, leaving Qi Lang off guard.

Yun Shang tapped her fingers on the table when a noise came from downstairs. "What did you say? No private room? Do I, Qi Yuzhi, need to reserve an exclusive room before? Ask your shopkeeper to come here! I'd like to know."

"Calm down, master! I'll ask someone to prepare a room. Please wait here... I'll prepare some tea for you." The shopkeeper said in an obsequious voice.

Qi Yuzhi...

Yun Shang turned to look downstairs, and saw a young man standing downstairs. He was dressed in purple, and had a folding fan in his hand. He was a handsome boy, but his eyes were full of arrogance and contempt when he looked at the shopkeeper.

Qi Yuzhi, the third son of Qi Lang, was 21 years old with no wife. There were more than 20 concubines in the clan. He was arrogant and domineering, which was called as a bully in the KY City. But because his father was Qi Lang, not many people dared to offend him.

The waiter went upstairs in a hurry and knocked on the door one by one. After he went in and asked about the details, a man in one of the rooms came out, looking unhappy.

The shopkeeper ushered Qi Yuzhi into the room.

"Come on, it's just because he has a father who is the general. Don't be so rude. You said there was no private room here, and that's all. Since when did you have one after Qi Yuzhi came?" A man's voice resounded from downstairs in the hall.
