An Eight-year-old Princess novel Chapter 358

Yun Shang was taken aback at Prince Jing's words. After a long while, she finally realized what he meant. A cold smile appeared on her face. "That's really interesting. Another trouble came for me

again. Yesterday at the Jinluan hall, when Hua Jing and I were at odds with each other, many people had saw it. If Hua Jing was indeed burned to death in prison, I'm afraid that everyone would suspect me."

But who set this up for her?

Yun Shang sat on the edge of the bed, and searched every possible person in her mind. The most suspicious person was Jing Wenxi, but Jing Wenxi had no ability to do anything like this since she was locked up by Prince Jing's people. So she was not the one. Yun Shang couldn't think of anyone else in the Imperial City bore such a grudge against her except Jing Wenxi.

Qian Yin had already gone to report to Luo Yi. She fetched Yun Shang's clothes and help her to put them on and comb her hair. Yun Shang seldom wore make-up, so her daily routine was simple.

After freshening up, Yun Shang entered the palace. Since emperor Ning had just married the new

empress yesterday, the court should be closed today. Yun Shang headed straight to the qinzheng hall, but she was informed that emperor Ning slept in the Qiwu Palace last night.

Surprised, Yun Shang was annoyed at herself for forgetting this. She forgot that emperor Ning should stay in the Qiwu palace, as Lady Ya had just become a new empress yesterday.

Thinking of the trouble to get back to the Prince Jing's mansion, Yun Shang walked to the Jinxiu Palace. lady Jin had got up and was surprised to see Yun Shang in. "I heard from Qin Yi that you always slept late. Why do you get up so early today?"

Yun Shang sighed, "I think someone didn't want me to sleep late. The prison of the court of justice was set on fire last night."

"A prison?" Lady Jin frowned. "What happened to Princess Hua Jing? She was just put in jail yesterday? How about the fire now? What about the casualties? Is there anything wrong with Princess Hua Jing? "

Hearing what the emperor said, Yun Shang realized that as soon as emperor Ning left the Qiwu palace, he was stopped by Madam Zheng. Now the head of the court of justice was probably waiting outside the qinzheng palace. If emperor Ning were to go, no one would know what had happened. The head of the court of Justice dared not to go in the imperial household, so madam Zheng took it from him. This was good.

Yun Shang thought for a while and said hastily, "father, earlier this morning I heard that the fire was lit in the prison of the Court of Justice. It has been more than four hours. I sent my people to inquire about the situation of the casualties. No one knows. I want to ask for an imperial edict and take a look at the prison of the court of justice."

"The prison is on fire?" Emperor Ning's face changed abruptly. He kept silent for a moment and said, "what does the fire have to do with you? Why do you want to go?"

Hearing this, Yun Shang smiled bitterly and said helplessly, "father, you know better than me who is locked up in the prison of court of justice. Sister had a conflict with me at the Jinluan hall last night and was imprisoned in the prison. The prison went on fire at night. If sister died in the prison, I'm afraid that everyone would suspect me. I just want to seek justice."

Lady Jin was also surprised at Yun Shang's words. She thought for a while in silence, and her face slightly changed. "So, the arson man wanted to frame you?" She paused and her face grew paler. "It doesn't matter if Princess Hua Jing is the only one who died. But there are so many people and some guards in the prison. If they were either dead or wounded seriously, the people would be unhappy."
