Chapter 165 Flower Show Guide (Part Three)

Yun Shang requested leave from the Emperor and the Empress, and returned to Qingxin Palace with Qian Yin. As soon as Qian Yin entered the Hall, she told everything that had happened at Qiwu Palace to Qin Yi. She gloated, "Qin Yi, you should have seen the expression of the Empress and Hua Jing. It was so exciting. However, I think Hua Jing looked more quiet and not as stupid as she was before."

Yun Shang smiled at the fact that Hua Jing was not a fool. Actually, she was cunning enough to prepare schemes in advance. However, Hua Jing had been spoiled since her childhood. She may be smart, but she never knew how to exercise patience.

If she learned how to restrain herself, she would certainly be a good opponent. An opponent that Yun Shang wouldn't be able to ignore so easily. What a pity that she was too conceited to learn that.

Qin Yi felt uneasy about Yun Shang making fun of the Emperor. She said with hesitation, "Your Highness, will Lady Ya be angry at you?"

Yun Shang smiled faintly and shook her head, "I have trained Lady Ya for a long time. So, she won't feel anger at such a trivial matter. On the contrary, this can help her. I saw the Empress wanted to draw Lady Ya over to her side, but felt she couldn't be fully trusted. If I fool with Lady Ya either by accident or on purpose, the Empress will trust her more."

Grand Councilor Li saw that both Yun Shang and Prince Jing didn't raise any objection and replied in haste, "It's my duty to help you."

Soon afterwards, Grand Councilor Li proposed that Yun Shang and Prince Jing accompany him to the banquet's venue to familiarize them and introduce matters that required special attention.

Yun Shang agreed and took leave with the excuse of getting changed. Then, the Emperor allowed Prince Jing to escort Yun Shang back to Qingxin Palace.

"It's obvious that a plot is awaiting us. But I don't know what it is." Yun Shang sneered with an air of contempt.

Prince Jing looked at Yun Shang. However, he didn't care about the plot and said to Yun Shang, "I heard Master Wu Na congratulated you on your destined marriage."

Yun Shang was puzzled and had no idea why their conversation had been changed to such a topic. Then, she heard Prince Jing laughing softly and gently before he added, "I'm pleased to be received and approved by Master Wu Na."

Yun Shang blushed scarlet and said, "I and…"
