An Eight-year-old Princess novel Chapter 422

After returning to her carriage, Yun Shang slowly opened the crumpled letter and took out a piece of paper. At the beginning, there were two words on it: Secret decree.

Yun Shang quickly finished reading the imperial edict with a startled look. She studied it again and found that the handwriting was really her father's. The seal was his imperial seal as well as his little seal. It couldn't be counterfeited.

"What happened, your highness?" Qian Yin noticed that Yun Shang went silent and her expression was strange, so she asked.

Yun Shang came to her senses and answered lightly. "Nothing." But she still folded the letter carefully and put it into her sleeve.

However there was still all kinds of emotions surging in her heart. It was written on that imperial edict that the emperor Ning was leaving the throne to Chenxi. Did her father give such a secret order to her to make her happy and reassured? Or is he on guard against something?

Having just experienced a separation, and Emperor Ning's secret order, Yun Shang's mind was in a state of anxiety along the way. On the way to the imperial city of the state of Xia, she fell ill.

Prince Jing looked at Yun Shang and was worried about her. He gave up the horse and sat in the carriage. He would take care of Yun Shang day and night. However, his move attracted many people's attention. Emperor Xia scolded him several times. How could a man do something like that for a woman? This was what he said. On the other hand, Liu Yinfeng paid Yun Shang a visit several times. He saw her flushed face due to the high fever and an unhealthy mental state. On the other hand, he was also worried about her health, so he sent for a doctor back to the Jin City in a hurry. After taking five or six days of medicine, Yun Shang looked better than before. Although she was still not in good spirit, her condition was not as serious as it was several days ago. Prince Jing and Liu Yinfeng were both relieved at that.

It was May 14 when they arrived at the Jin City and didn't get off the carriage until they entered the Imperial palace. The empress, Su Ruji, together with all the ladies and officials above the imperial household, waited at the end of the main road. Xia Huanyu got off the carriage and walked slowly with them. The empress and the officials bowed to Xia Huanyu. "Your Majesty, welcome back." They all said with a bow.

Xia Huanyu walked to the empress and helped her up. He said flatly to her, "the empress must be tired after all these days when I was not here."

The empress smiled demurely, stood up and said softly, "Your Majesty, you have overstated it." Her gaze swept across the people behind Xia Huanyu. Her gaze paused at Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang for a moment, and then looked away. "His Majesty must be very tired after days of travel. Why not go back to the Chang Le palace, freshen up and have a rest? I'll prepare a royal banquet for your highness tonight."
