An Eight-year-old Princess

Chapter 1147 The Birthday Gifts

Yun Shang was surprised, "Did Liu Yinfeng leave Liucang City?"

Luo Qingyan nodded slightly, "I thought there was something wrong with Liucang City, Siyang City and

Nanyang City, because Xia Houjing had made trouble in these places before, and also because the

craftsmen of the Ministry of Revenue had gone to this area. But the most important reason is that Liu

Yinfeng went straight to Liucang City after he left the the Liucang City.

I always feel that there is a reason for Liu Yinfeng to go there. In addition, there were all kinds of signs

indicating something before, so both you and I suspect that he has sensed something wrong and

traced in the Liucang City.

Now Liu Yinfeng has left the Liucang City mostly because he didn't find anything there. That's why I

suspect that we have all been tricked away by their scheme, "

Yun Shang paced back and forth in the room. Then she turned to Luo Qingyan and asked, "Where did

Prince Xian go after he left the Liucang City? He should know that you have sent someone to follow

him all the time. Did he leave any message? "

Luo Qingyan shook his head, "There is still a distance from the Liucang City to the Jin City. It will take

some time even if the carrier pigeon sends the message. The latest news I received is the news that

Liu Yinfeng left the Liucang City three days ago. I haven't got any further news yet. But according to the

secret guards over there, Liu Yinfeng is leaving for the north. "

"The north?" Yun Shang walked quickly to the front of the map and found the location of the Liucang

City with her fingers. Then she slowly moved north and wondered, "There seems to be no any special

city to the north?"

Luo Qingyan nodded, "Yes, there is indeed no special city to the north. But... there is a special country.

"

"A special country?" Yun Shang continued to move her fingers upward on the map, and soon she

understood what Luo Qingyan meant, "The State of Yelang?"

Yun Shang withdrew her hand and turned to Luo Qingyan, "You mean Liu Yinfeng is going to the

border of the State of Yelang and the State of Xia? Did he find something in the Liucang City? Or did

he get some news? Did he suspect or find that Xia Houjing's people were connected with those from

the State of Yelang? That's why he went there? "

Luo Qingyan smiled, "I'm just suspecting about these possibilities.

A few days ago, the State of Yelang was defeated by us, so they had to withdraw their troops

temporarily. But Cangjue Qingsu is not a man who would give up easily. He will come back soon to the

battle.

However, Xia Houjing has failed in his intrigues. And we have almost removed all their spies placed in

the court as well as in the imperial household. It's hard to guarantee that he won't jump off the wall and

collude with Cangjue Qingsu. I guess they would join hands to remove us first, so that they two can

make their further plans."

Yun Shang pursed her lips and said, "If Xia Houjing wins the throne of the State of Xia on his own

ability, I will think that he is a character. Even if we lose, we will be sincerely convinced. But if he really

has an affair with Cangjue Qingsu, I will look down upon him regardless of the victory or defeat.

Cangjue Qingsu is ambitious and cruel. If the soldiers of the State of Yelang really invade the State of

Xia, the people here will suffer a lot. For the sake of the throne and his own selfish interest, a person

who can ignore the life and death of the people in his country may not deserve to be an emperor. "

Luo Qingyan smiled, "You are wrong."

Yun Shang raised her eyebrows, "What's wrong? Do you think for the sake of only the throne, a person

can do anything in return? "

"I didn't mean this," Luo Qingyan put on a bigger smile and said, "I mean, what you said was wrong.

Even if Xia Houjing and Cangjue Qingsu have a secret united relation, they are definitely not our Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

match. They will never win. "

Hearing this, Yun Shang couldn't help laughing, "You are so confident."

"Of course," answered Luo Qingyan.

While they two were talking, Liu Wenan's voice came from outside, "Your Majesties, the Emperor of the

State of Ning has sent some gifts for her majesty''s birthday."

"My father's gifts?" Yun Shang quickly turned around and said, "Come on in. Let me have a look. What

gift did Father and Mother give me?"

With a smile, Liu Wenan came in with three brocade boxes in his hands. He put the boxes on the table

and left.

"There are three brocade boxes. One is a gift from my father, and the other is from my mother. And the

third one, most likely from Chenxi. Let me have a look. "

Yun Shang opened the biggest brocade box and saw a big jar in it. The jar was tightly sealed and

looked rather mysterious.

There was a piece of paper beside the jar.

Yun Shang didn't open the jar first. She just unfolded the paper and couldn't help laughing when she

saw the crooked handwriting on it.

"Chenxi wrote it? What did he write? " seeing Yun Shang laughing so happily, Luo Qingyan was also

curious.

Yun Shang put the paper back and said, "Chenxi said he had tried almost the whole Jin City's food

after he came here. He thought the best one was shrimp paste he had eaten at a stall. In the jar, is the

shrimp paste he begged the seller to teach him to make. He also said that it took him more than half a

month to catch so many shrimps before he learned to make them into the shrimp paste. He made the

shrimp paste himself. He tried several times and finally succeeded. He asked me to have a taste. "

Luo Qingyan also smiled, "He is very considerate. You should have a good taste of it."

"I hope the taste is not too strange,"

said Yun Shang. She held back her laughter and picked up another box.

There was a pair of shoes in the box. The shoes were embroidered with peony flowers, which was

lifelike. Beside the shoes, there was a gilded card.

"This should be from Mother. Mother is the best at embroidery,"

said Yun Shang while unfolding the card, with a slight smile at the corners of her mouth, but her eyes

were a little red, "Mother hopes that wherever I go, I will know that she will always be with me."

Yun Shang closed the box carefully and opened the last one. The last box was beautiful, not big, but a

little longer.

As soon as she opened it, Yun Shang saw a piece of bright yellow cloth inside, which was neatly folded

and placed. On it, there was a little embroidery pattern, which seemed to be the edge of auspicious

clouds.

Yun Shang was somewhat familiar with this kind of embroidery. She frowned and said, "This is..."

"Imperial edict,"

Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan spoke out at the same time.

Then they looked up at each other.

"Why did Father give me the imperial edict? I'm in the State of Xia now. The imperial edict he gave me

is useless,"

but after saying that, she suddenly had a vague guess in her heart. But she felt that this conjecture was

too impractical, so she frowned again.

"Open it?" Luo Qingyan encouraged.

Yun Shang nodded, took out the imperial edict and unfolded it slowly.
