Yun Shang had already known that Luo Qingyan would ask about it if he had known the truth. So she had made a detailed statement. "It was very important to get rid of the hidden army of the Eldest Princess. But the palace guards were only familiar with the terrain of the Jin City. I was afraid that there would be some troubles, so I decided to go with them. I had been ready for it before we set out. We didn't hurry on with the journey. Besides, I know some medical skills. It's nothing serious. "
Luo Qingyan sighed, "I know you were doing this for me. But don't do this again. No matter what happens, you can't ignore your own health."
Yun Shang didn't expect Luo Qingyan could forgive her so easily. She nodded and agreed.
Xia Huanyu had not gone to the court for several consecutive days. Luo Qingyan had gone to the Imperial Palace once. When he came back, he had a worried look on his face and only said that Xia Qingyan intended to take this opportunity to clean up the court. After that, Luo Qingyan stayed in the mansion, accompanying Yun Shang.
Yun Shang didn't bother to ask more. Besides, part of the guards in the Imperial Palace had been withdrawn, so Yun Shang could get news of the Imperial Palace. That day, Ning Qian sent a message saying that Luo Qingyan and Xia Huanyu had a big fight. The servants said they seemed to keep mentioning Lady Rui in their conversation.
Yun Shang had been guessing for a long time, but she couldn't figure out why they quarreled. She didn't ask Luo Qingyan about it.
It was not until the sixth day that Xia Huanyu issued a decree to resume the morning court.
On the first day when the morning court was restored, several imperial edicts were issued. A number of officials in the court were punished and Liu Jin was sentenced to death on a treacherous crime. Many officials, whom Yun Shang had never heard of, were also affected. Some of them had been downgraded, and some had been killed.
However, these officials who had been punished were mostly those who the secret guards had reported to Yun Shang that they had unusual behaviors during the period when Xia Huanyu was missing.
It was easy to see that Xia Huanyu was well prepared as he took action so fast.
Well prepared... The corners of Yun Shang's mouth curled into a smile. She was afraid that the whole disappearance thing was under the control of himself.
Old fox. Yun Shang thought to herself, 'Poor me. I have also fooled by him.'
Two days later, it was the wedding day of the seventh prince. Yun Shang had been grounded again by Luo Qingyan, and she hadn't been out of the mansion for a long time. Taking advantage of the wedding of the seventh prince, she went to celebrate them with Luo Qingyan in a carriage.
Yun Shang was a little curious. Liu Jin was about to be beheaded, then there would be no Liu clan. In that case, could it be possible for Liu Chuchu to marry into the seventh prince's mansion?
Yun Shang asked Luo Qingyan. Luo Qingyan smiled and said, "why couldn't? Although Liu Chuchu doesn't have a noble identity now, she is the most talented lady in Jin City and she will marry the seventh princess just as a concubine. She entered the Mansion of the Liu clan. No one knows what would happen then. "
Yun Shang was surp
asked, "Did the empress make things difficult for you?"
Yun Shang tilted her head and thought, 'it was Luo Qingyan who had made trouble for the empress.' At the thought of this, she burst into laughter and shook her head, "His Highness really pissed the Empress off."
Lady Hua Guo felt relieved when she saw Yun Shang was fine.
Having rested for a while, the housekeeper came and reported, "Distinguished guests, the groom and the bride are about to come. Please come to the garden house."
Then they all stood up and walked to the garden house with the servant.
Many people were already standing outside the garden house. Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan were arranged to seats aside. A moment later, the empress came in, walked to the main seat, and sat down.
Everyone bowed. The empress said lightly, "Get up."
After a while, a voice of joy was heard, "The new couple is coming. The new couple is coming." Cheers came through.
Yun Shang looked out of the door and saw that the seventh prince was dressed in a red wedding clothes, which made him look more handsome and attractive against his pale face. The prince was holding a red silk, the other end of which was held in the hand of the bride. The bride looked very petite, but her face couldn't be seen clearly with the handkerchief covered.
The new could slowly walked to the door and entered.
"Wedding time!" The courtier said loudly. Then the servant took the bride and groom to the garden house and knelt not far away from the empress.
"The couple may now kowtow to worship the heaven..." The guests watched the prince and the bride turn around and kowtowed toward outside.
"Now, kowtow to worship the Emperor and the Empress..." Then the seventh prince and the bride turned around and kowtowed to the empress. Yun Shang noticed that the noticed the seventh prince fixed his eyes on the empty seat next to the empress and squinted.
"Kowtow to worship your spouse..." The new couple kowtowed to each other. But the seventh prince's face turned pale all of a sudden when he was halfway through his kneeling. He staggered and fell to the ground.
"Your Highness!" All of a sudden, exclamations rang out
