As Wang Jinyan and Wang Jinhuan arrived, Yun Shang was very happy to see two familiar faces in this almost strange place of the state of Xia. So she stayed at the Inn and chatted with Wang Jinyan for a whole night. The next morning, she put on the mask and prepared to go back to Li mansion.
"Now that we are in the state of Xia, we can make a good show of our talents by taking advantage of this. I have also climbed a decent position in the state of Ning because of my father. So I would like to go to the imperial palace as the envoy of the state of Ning and question Xia Huanyu why the princess of the state of Ning died just in three months after she arrived in the state of Xia. " Before leaving, Wang Jinhuan said to Yun Shang.
Yun Shang kept silent for a while. She didn't think it would be of much use to her, but they people
in the State of Xia had forgotten she had a special identity as well, along with Lady Rui. It would be nice if Wang Jinhuan could help them to remember that she was still a princess in the
state of Ning better.
"Well, that's good. I have a token from my father. It will be more persuasive if you take it with you to the palace." After a pause, she continued, "when will you go? Take me with you. "
Wang Jinhuan nodded. Yun Shang set a time before she left the inn.
Yun Shang was talking with Wang Jinyan during the night. When she returned to Li mansion, she felt sleepy and was about to lie down for sleep when Qian Yin walked over. "I have got in touch with the butler. He told me that the dead body of the fake Lady Rui was suddenly missing during the last night of the funeral. The Butler reported to his majesty that his majesty ordered him to carry the empty coffin directly into the funeral, but he didn't expect that something would happen at the funeral. What happened yesterday has already provoked much discussion among people. It's said that lady Rui died in a odd way and her corpse has changed. "
"Corpse change?" Yun Shang sneered, "who would have thought that? How lazy the guards of Prince Rui's mansion are? I can't believe that the dead body would have been burgled so easily! "
Qian Yin replied in a hurry, "It was not the Butler's fault. All the servants are very busy with the funeral. The Butler knew that the corpse was a fake one, so he didn't take it to heart. The night keeper was lazy. But when he got up and was about to cover the coffin, he couldn't find the body anywhere. "
Yun Shang frowned slightly, but there was a deep doubt in her heart. "Who would steal a corpse? I wonder if the thief knows that the corpse is a fake one."
The eunuchs checked every one of them to see if they had any sharp weapons. After checking, Wang Jinhuan stood at the gate of the palace with four people, waiting for the summon. It was the hour in the early morning of the state of Xia. About five minutes later, Yun Shang saw Liu Wenan coming down from a long staircase in front of the Taiji Palace and slowly walking to Wang Jinhuan. He looked at Wang Jinhuan in a red robe and he paused for a moment, and then asked hesitantly, "is this Lord Wang from the state of Ning?"
Yun Shang couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile. She had a feeling that he must thought that
Wang Jinhuan didn't look like an officer.
Wang Jinhuan, however, was quite used to the way other people looked at him. He raised his eyebrows, "yes, I am."
Liu Wenan immediately said, "Lord Wang, please follow me..."
