An Eight-year-old Princess novel Chapter 673

As Qin Yi expected, the empress was so displeased about what happened yesterday. As soon as Yun Shang stepped into the Wei Yang Palace and knelt down to show her respects, the empress said in a lukewarm tone, "I thought you would disobey my order and not come."

It was a serious charge. Yun Shang thought to herself and showed a timid expression, "I dare not."

No sooner had Yun Shang finished speaking than the empress sneered, "You dare not? Is there anything Lady Rui dares not to do? Yesterday when I left the Xiang Zhu Palace, I specifically ordered you to send someone to inform me when you have any result." If I didn't summon you, I'm afraid you wouldn't remember it."

Hearing this, Yun Shang hurriedly said, "Your majesty, please don't be angry. I can explain."

"Well, tell me. I'd like to see what excuses you have." The empress looked at Yun Shang with a sneer.

"When I investigated for a while yesterday, his majesty came to the Xiang Zhu Palace and asked me about it. Then I reported to him. It was near midnight when I left the Xiang Zhu Palace. Thinking that your majesty must have gone to bed, I didn't dare to disturb you, so I left the palace directly. Besides, his majesty said he would tell you when I left. So I thought he had... It's all my fault..." Yun Shang said in a low voice. She even pushed the blame directly to Xia Huanyu. She believed that the empress dared not to question Xia Huanyu and would never think that she dared to lie to her.

The empress felt as if she had punched in cotton. The more she frowned, the more nervous she became. After a long time, she said coldly, "Of course his majesty will tell me. He went to the court early in the morning. Haven't you thought of this? You didn't explain to me what happened. It's your fault. Will you admit your guilt? "

Yun Shang hurriedly said, "I'm to blame."

The empress snorted again. "So what did you find yesterday?"

Yun Shang hurriedly ordered, "I have checked all the things in the room but found nothing unusual. Maybe it's because of her weakness and the cold weather."

The empress's eyes flickered a little. She picked up the teacup by her hand and said coldly, "She should have stayed in the room as she is too weak to walk in the imperial garden. She shouldn't have been so careless since she has a baby."

Yun Shang kept silent. She didn't know whether she meant it or...

If the empress said it on purpose, then there must be a lot of meanings behind her words. There are many new furniture in the room, which was extremely bad for the unborn baby of Lin Youran. If they still put the braziers in the room with the window locked, her unborn baby would be dead in no time.

"Yes. I've told her to have a good rest in the inner hall, and she can go out and walk when her pregnancy is more stable." Yun Shang answered softly.

The empress nodded and said coldly, "Get up. You are pregnant now. If you are seen kneeling here by the Prince Rui, he might blame me."

Yun Shang agreed and stood up.

The empress took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Since Lady Hui trust your medical skills so much, make her a prescription for miscarriage prevention. Then she won't always feel that everyone in the palace wants to hurt the baby in her belly."

Yun Shang didn't understand why the empress said so. She thought for a moment and found a ferocious argument. If she gave a prescription, she would be unable to find a proper word to defend herself if there is anything wrong with the medicine or Lady Hui. So she laughed and said: "Every medicine has its side effect. I think she'd better not take too much medicine."

The empress looked at Yun Shang and said, "Well, whatever you say. Anyway, Lady Hui is willing to listen to you."

There was some irony in her words, but Yun Shang pretended not to hear.

With Yun Shang's concession and the mention of Xia Huanyu, the empress couldn't do anything about it. She simply said a few cold words to Yun Shang and let her go. When Yun Shang walked out of the Wei Yang Palace, she saw several women in strange clothes coming towards the Wei Yang Palace.

It was odd because the clothes they wore seemed not to be from maids or concubines. Yun Shang took a look at them. They were all familiar to her, and realized that they were female officials.

Yun Shang thought for a while. Since she had already entered the palace, she decided to go to the Xiang Zhu Palace again and then headed for it with Qin Yi.

Ning Qian and Lin Youran were having tea and chatting with each other in the hall. Ning Qian was not surprised at Yun Shang's arrival. She stood up with a smile and said, "I heard that your highness had just gone to the Wei Yang Palace, and was worried that the empress might get you in trouble. I was just telling Youran that if you still hadn't come out later, I will go to the Wei Yang Palace to have a look."
