Eight-year-old Princess: Phoenix Reborn

However, after leaving the palace, the group entered a dense forest. Yunshang frowned. She knew about this dense forest. The rumored haunted forest, but Yunshang had never been there before, but she didn't know that miasma would rise in this dense forest at night. Once she entered the forest, she could almost see I don't see what's going on in front of me.

Yun Chang frowned slightly, what a clever way, but why did they dare to go into the forest full of miasma without any scruples?

"Let's go, let's retreat first." Yun Chang waved her hand, telling her subordinates to disperse first, and went to Prince Jing's mansion by herself.

The head of Prince Jing's mansion has been guarding the door. Seeing Yun Shang approaching, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Princess, have you found the prince?"

Yun Chang shook her head, walked in, and saw a bright light in King Jing's study, Yun Chang stepped into the study, there were a few people sitting inside, Wang Jinhuan sat at the front, and the other two seemed to be in the barracks by themselves I have seen it, but others are a little strange.

The two of them were taken aback when they saw Yunshang, "Young Master Xiao?" They just saw Yunshang dressed in a woman's attire, and stayed there for a while, their expressions changed for a while, and they raised their eyes to look at Yunshang several times, finally She still didn't speak, but she was very puzzled in her heart, what's going on, why did Young Master Xiao become a woman? Before she was in the army, she lived in the prince's tent. Could it be that she and the prince...

"Princess, lord..." Wang Jinhuan quickly stood up and looked at Yunshang.

The two men were shocked again when they heard Wang Jinhuan's words, "Princess?!"

Yun Shang nodded slightly towards the two of them, and sat at the front, "We saw the prince, but he was taken into a dense forest, and the dense forest was full of miasma. I was worried that there was a trap, so I didn't chase after him."

"Miasma?" Wang Jinhuan murmured, "Miasma is often poisonous. It is the gas emitted by poisonous flowers in the forest. Are those people invulnerable to all poisons?"

A somewhat thin man at the side heard the words, pondered for a moment, and then said, "I've heard that Xia Guo is located in a low-lying terrain, and there are many miasmas in the forest, so Xia Guo people have some special resistance to miasmas. walking in the miasma."

"Xia Guo?" Yun Shang raised her eyes to look at the man, "Could it be the Seventh Prince of Xia..."

Wang Jinhuan was a little unbelievable, "I have seen the seventh prince of the Xia Kingdom, and he looked very sick. Besides, the prince has no enemies in the Xia Kingdom. Although the Xia Kingdom is rich, it is a small country. The total number of people is less than that of the emperor. There are many cities, what good is it for them to hijack the prince and fight against Ningguo?"

"It's rare that you have been used to watching the battles of big families in the imperial city, and you still believe what it shows. As far as I know, the princes of the Xia Kingdom are not good at nothing. Under such circumstances, hiding your strength, Let others feel that you are particularly weak, and maybe you can better protect yourself. As soon as Yelang State revealed his desire to marry Ning State, Xia State eagerly sent the Seventh Prince over because he was afraid that we would join hands with Yelang State Come on, if we unite hands, Xia Guo will only be able to win. Xia Guo is not targeting King Jing because of Prince Jing's enmity with them, but because of Prince Jing's strength in the court and his skill in fighting I guess, if Xia Guo really did it, then, soon, they will try their best to plant it in the hands of Yelang Guo." Perhaps because of today's tiredness, Yunshang's voice carried With a slight hoarseness, it makes people feel that it is extra convincing.

The two who met Yunshang in the military camp had seen Yunshang's resourcefulness and ability, so they naturally believed her words, and asked quickly, "Then princess, what should we do now?"

Yun Shang pondered for a moment, then said, "Block the city gate with great fanfare, find out the whereabouts of the prince, the bigger the disturbance, the better, let the people in the imperial city know that the prince is missing. And mobilize the power of the people, so that if they see anything suspicious Those who provide effective information will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold."

"But the lord has a high reputation among the people, if the people know that something happened to the lord, they will be panicked..." A man sitting at the bottom said with some doubts.

Yun Shang raised the corners of her lips, "Do you think that even if we don't do this, no one will leak the news? I'm afraid that someone with a heart will do this before us. You also know that the emperor's uncle is in the hearts of the people. The reputation is very good, if the common people know that the emperor's uncle is missing, they will definitely cause trouble. When the time comes, the father will see it, and I am afraid that suspicion will inevitably arise in his heart. If the father is jealous, it will be very bad for the emperor. We will reward If the gold is set higher, when the time comes, Emperor Father will think that the people are so crazy only because of the bounty, so he won't think too much about it."

Yun Chang paused for a moment, and seeing that everyone looked solemn, he said again, "At Xia Houjing's place, send more people to follow. Who did he meet, what did he do, where did he go, and report everything in detail. In addition to Xia Houjing, the Prime Minister's Mansion, Wen's Mansion, and Prince Shunqing's Mansion also sent people to watch."

Everyone was silent for a moment, looking at each other, for a long time, only Wang Jinhuan answered, and after a long time, the two generals in the battalion also answered.

Seeing that the rest of the people didn't respond, Yunshang smiled slightly and said, "Father has already granted me a marriage with the emperor's uncle. If something happens to the emperor's uncle at this time, I will be left as a widow." I am afraid that it will be difficult to marry again in the future, I am only a daughter, and I must know that the daughter's reputation is sometimes more important than life."

When Wang Jinhuan heard the words, a pair of peach blossom eyes looked towards Yunshang, with a little thought, Yunshang said these words with a smile, but the content was not necessarily easy. She first reminded them that she had already bestowed a marriage to the prince, and in the future, she might be their mistress. If she offended the future mistress, life might not be easy. She also stated that she attached great importance to her boudoir's reputation, and would never allow Prince Jing to have an accident before they got married, so as to show her position, it's really interesting.

The rest of the people looked at each other in blank dismay, and hurriedly cupped their hands towards Yunshang, "I am waiting for the princess to order."

Yun Chang smiled slightly and nodded, "If that's the case, I'll take care of you, my lords."

Yunshang arranged everything before returning to the palace. Qianyin hurriedly held Yunshang back and said, "Just now, the empress delivered an order to let the princess go to the Wu Palace. The servants were afraid that something might go wrong, so they let the boss pretend to be dizzy and said that the princess is not a princess. Because of Prince Jing's disappearance, I was exhausted physically and mentally, overwhelmed with grief, and passed out. The Empress Empress just let people come over to look at it, but the boss fooled her."

Yun Chang nodded, the queen was afraid that she had heard about Hua Jing and wanted to question herself a few words. Yun Chang slightly hooked the corners of her lips, who could blame her good daughter for being so unable to bear loneliness.

"Understood, I'll just go and have a look tomorrow morning. I'm a little tired today. Let's pack up and take a rest." It was almost dawn, and Yun Chang was very tired, so he simply asked why sleep.

When I woke up, it was almost noon, Yun Chang ate something and was about to go to Qiwu Palace to have a look, but saw Manager Zheng walking in, Yun Shang hurriedly said, "Director Zheng is here to look for Chang'er? But the emperor has news?"

Mr. Zheng was slightly stunned when he heard Yun Shang's question, and shook his head, "It was Xia Guo's Seventh Prince and Hua Guogong who entered the palace. Hua Guogong said that he wanted to see His Royal Highness, so the emperor sent his servants to come. Princess please."

Yun Shang frowned, Duke Hua? What did he see himself doing? Yun Chang thought for a while, but suddenly remembered that when he was in Yumanlou, Duke Hua looked at King Jing almost without blinking his eyes. Could it be that King Jing's disappearance has something to do with him?

"Let's go, I just want to pay my respects to my father." Yun Shang stood up and followed Mr. Zheng to the Qinzheng Hall.

When we arrived at Qinzheng Hall, we saw Emperor Ning playing chess with Duke Hua. Xia Houjing stood aside and watched with relish. Yun Chang stepped forward and looked at the situation on the chessboard. It was evenly matched, so Yun Chang also stood aside and remained silent. watching loudly.

After a while, the two stopped playing. Emperor Ning smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for many years, but Duke Hua's chess skills have improved a lot."

Hua Guogong smiled, "The emperor has improved a lot. I remember that more than 20 years ago, I would not have lost so badly."

Yun Chang looked over, and Hua Guogong lost three sons.

"Shang'er is here?" Emperor Ning raised his eyes to look at Yunshang, with concern in his eyes, "I heard that you fainted after returning to the palace last night, are you feeling better now?"

Yun Shang smiled, with a bit of bitterness on her face, "I'm better, Chang'er is in good health, but I just remembered that the emperor's uncle's life and death are uncertain now, and his mood fluctuated a bit, which caused the old illness. Fortunately, there are still some people in the palace. Abbot Wu Na prepared the pills, so there is no danger."

Duke Hua raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard Yun Shang's words, and looked at Yun Shang, "I heard that the abbot Wuna of your country is also a rare figure, and the old man wants to pay a visit, but I don't know the princess What kind of disease do you have at such a young age? The old man also knows some medicine, can the princess ask the old man to give you a pulse?"

Yun Shang smiled lightly, her smile was a little pale, she was fully prepared when she returned to the palace, just to prevent the imperial doctor from seeing any flaws in the pulse, now that she heard what Hua Guogong said, she immediately He didn't resist either, and stretched out his hand with a smile, "Of course."

Hua Guogong took Yunshang's hand, frowned slightly, and said after a while, "Princess's pulse is too disordered, it seems that she was poisoned when she was young, and the poison was a bit harsh, but fortunately, an expert rescued it, but it was only later. The princess seems to have failed to take good care of it and hurt her vitality, so now she is weak and the situation is not optimistic."

When Emperor Ning heard the words, he also showed a bit of worry on his face, "Is there any way for the Duke to cure Chang'er?"

Hua Guogong shook his head slightly, "Princess's body is expensive now... You must not worry too much, and don't work too hard, or you may endanger your life."

Yun Shang didn't show a trace of sadness, and her smile was still calm, "Abbot Wuna has always emphasized to me that we must learn to be as calm as water, but I am a little younger, and I will never be able to realize that state. In fact, the abbot and I have said that it is not suitable for me to marry and have children in my situation, but I always feel that as a woman, if I can't support my husband and raise my children, I will lose a lot of fun."

Emperor Ning was shocked when he heard the words, Yunshang had never told him this, so he never knew that her body was so bad, and felt even more pity in his heart, this is his and Shujin's child, if she Something happened, Shujin must be very sad, he was suspicious of her before, it's really...

"Then you still promised to marry Prince Jing..."

Yun Chang lowered her head, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, "Uncle Huang knows about my condition..."

Emperor Ning frowned slightly, knowing, if Prince Jing knew that Yun Shang could not get married and have children, why? Could it be that he has some purpose?

Only then did Yunshang smile and said, "It's the uncle I begged for..." Yunshang glanced over Xia Houjing and Hua Guogong, but didn't speak again.

Emperor Ning also noticed Yun Chang's gaze, and after a long silence, he raised his eyes and said, "Duke Hua just said he was looking for Chang'er for something? I don't know what it is?"

Only then did Duke Hua smile and say, "The old man saw the princess a few days ago, and felt that she was somewhat similar to my poor daughter in appearance, so he felt a little close to her. I only entered the palace today because I heard that Prince Jing Something happened, the old man was afraid that the princess would be sad, so he wanted to go to the palace to have a look..."

Just as he was talking, he saw Mr. Zheng walking in hastily.

Duke Hua stopped talking, and the three of them looked at Mr. Zheng together. Mr. Zheng lowered his head and said softly, "Your Majesty, Xiao Yuanshan, please see Mr. Xiao."

Yun Chang's eyebrows twitched, and there was a bit of surprise in her eyes. The day before yesterday, Prince Jing told her that grandpa was coming yesterday, but yesterday was too busy for him to take care of, so he forgot about it, but I don't want to, a grandfather will enter the palace today.

"Father, it's Grandpa." Yun Shang turned her head and looked at Emperor Ning with a smile.

Emperor Ning was also in a daze. Ever since Concubine Jin entered the cold palace, Xiao Yuanshan had resigned from his official position and lived in seclusion in an unknown place. Now Concubine Jin is coming to Fengcheng to give birth. I heard that he often goes to see her Concubine Jin, I don't know why she suddenly entered the palace...

"But former Grand Tutor Xiao Yuanshan? This old man has heard of his name in Xia Guo. I heard that he is a talented person. I have always wanted to meet him. I didn't expect this old man to come by coincidence." Hua Guogong said with a smile. .

"Xuan." Emperor Ning said hastily.

He walked in from outside the door in a green dress. Because of the backlight, he couldn't see his face clearly, but he felt that the man's figure was tall and straight, graceful and handsome. Yun Chang's eyes were bent, she hadn't seen her grandfather for a long time, and she was still so beautiful now.

"Grandpa..." Yun Chang hurried up to greet him, and saw a familiar face appear in front of her eyes.

Xiao Yuanshan looked at Yunshang and laughed, "Shang'er is getting more and more beautiful, and she looks more and more like Shujin." Then he looked at the man in the dragon robe sitting in the room, and saluted, "Caomin Xiao Yuanshan pays homage to the emperor, long live my emperor."

Emperor Ning looked at the man in front of him, sighed slightly, opened his mouth, and after a long time, said, "A teacher for one day will be a teacher for a lifetime, and the teacher is free."

Xiao Yuanshan raised his eyebrows, but his expression was not very joyful, but he remembered that his daughter had suffered for more than ten years because of the man in front of him.

Perhaps seeing the indifference in Xiao Yuanshan's eyes, Emperor Ning lowered his head, a look of remorse flashed in his eyes, at the beginning, Xiao Yuanshan should have been left in the court, if he had been there, the court might have looked different.

"I haven't seen the teacher for many years, I don't know why the teacher entered the palace today..." Emperor Ning asked softly.

Xiao Yuanshan's eyes fell on Yun Chang, and he said with a smile, "I went to Ningguo Temple to pray for blessings a few days ago, and I heard Abbot Wuna say that Chang'er might be doomed, and the grass people were a little worried, so they hurried to the imperial city."

"Jie?" Everyone was taken aback, especially Emperor Ning, who believed in Buddhism in Ningguo, especially Abbot Wuna, who was known as a fortune teller in Ningguo, believed in it without any doubt. Over the years, Abbot Wuna has always been straight-forward, and he is sure. Now, he said that Chang'er is in trouble...

"Did Abbot Wuna say what kind of catastrophe it is? Is there a way to resolve it?" Emperor Ning hurriedly asked, even Yun Chang couldn't help turning his head to look at Xiao Yuanshan.

Xiao Yuanshan frowned, and said after a while, "Qingjie, Chang'er may have a bloody disaster in the near future, and it needs to be married to resolve it."

Yun Chang was almost choked, what is this about... Yun Chang stomped her feet, her face turned red, "Grandpa... Didn't Abbot Wu always say that I can't get married too early? What about Qing Jie? Abbot Wu's calculations are getting more and more inaccurate, and the emperor's uncle has disappeared, who am I going to marry."

"Don't worry, Prince Jing will be fine. Abbot Wuna said that Prince Jing is safe and sound. I'm afraid the one who will be unlucky in the end will be someone who wants to harm him."

Hearing Xiao Yuanshan say such words, Yunshang's eyes swept over Xia Houjing and Hua Guogong lightly. Yunshang saw that Hua Guogong's expression was the same, and he listened to Xiao Yuanshan's words calmly, with a bit of expectation in his eyes. And Xia Houjing...

Yun Chang's eyes fell on Xia Houjing, but he saw him looking at her with a half-smile, with a smile flickering in his eyes.

Seeing Yun Shang looking at him, he just hooked the corners of his lips and averted his eyes lightly.

Could it be that Xia Houjing thought that he was testing him?

"That's good, the emperor is the pillar of Ningguo, nothing can happen." Emperor Ning breathed a sigh of relief and said in a low voice.

Duke Hua smiled and said, "This is the best. Prince Jing is fine, so there is no need for the princess and the emperor to worry. In this case, I have admired Mr. Xiao for a long time. I want to ask Mr. Xiao for advice. What do you think sir?"

Xiao Yuanshan turned his gaze to Duke Hua, with a faint smile, "It turns out that it is Lord Hua, today Xiao and Shang'er still have something to talk about, how about Xiao coming to ask for advice another day?"

Duke Hua nodded.

Yun Shang hurriedly turned to Emperor Ning and said, "Father, since Grandpa has something to do with Chang'er, Chang'er will take Grandpa to the Imperial Garden first."

Emperor Ning agreed, and Yunshang and Xiao Yuanshan left the gate of Qinzheng Palace together.

"Grandpa, why are you here?" She wouldn't believe that set of catastrophes and disasters. The thing her grandfather never believed the most was Wu Na's signature.

Xiao Yuanshan looked around and then lowered his head, "A few days ago, I passed by Qilin Mountain on the back of the imperial city. In Qilin Mountain, I found traces of an army stationed there, and it doesn't seem to be Ningguo's army.\u003c
