Chapter 692 A Trail Of Clues

Yun Shang had to pretend that she didn't hear anything. She blinked with a smile and muttered to herself, 'I haven't seen the bill today. I need to go to read the account book.' Then she made a curtsy to Xiao Yuanshan, "Grandfather, I'm leaving now."

Both Xiao Yuanshan and the butler burst into laughter.

Yun Shang indeed went to read the account book in her room. After having lunch with Xiao Yuanshan, she went back to her room and was about to take a nap, when someone told her that the seventh princess was here.

Yun Shang then remembered that she had asked Qin Yi to send for Hua Yutong at noon.

Yun Shang nodded and asked the servants to take Hua Yutong to her room. As soon as Hua Yutong entered, she smiled and greeted, "What treasure do you want to show me by sending someone to the seventh prince's mansion to invite me here? Shang'er, show me quickly, please. "

Yun Shang smiled and looked at Hua Yutong indifferently, "The treasure is not here, but I'd like to talk to you."

Stunned for a while, Hua Yutong sat down next to Yun Shang. With a confused look on her face, she asked, "What's the matter? What happened? "

Yun Shang smiled and looked out of the window. The frost on the bamboo leaves hadn't faded away. She asked softly, "Did you buy two blue sapphire butterfly hairpins in the Qianshui Pavilion the other day?"

Hua Yutong was stunned again. Then she nodded and answered, "Yes, it's been a long time."

Yun Shang didn't expect that Hua Yutong would admit it so quickly. She was absent-minded for a moment, then she said slowly, "Did the seventh prince tell you to buy it? A few days ago, these two hairpins were seen to be on Lady Xian's head in the palace. Have you heard of it? Did you send them to her in the palace in person? "

"Indeed, his highness asked me to buy them, but I don't know why he did so. He only said he had to send a gift to a woman. It's not very convenient for him to buy hairpins, so he sent me to the shop and especially told me to put on a veil. I haven't paid attention to it since I bought them back and gave them to his highness. Perhaps it was his highness who had sent the hairpins to Lady Xian," wit

e lied down on the bed, but her brows were furrowed.

About an hour later, Yun Shang woke up. When she opened her eyes, she saw Qian Liu standing by her soft couch. Yun Shang was a little surprised. After a while, she said, "Qian Liu, are you back?"

Qian Liu nodded with a smile and helped Yun Shang sit up.

Yun Shang yawned and said to Qian Liu, "Please open the window for some fresh air."

Qian Liu replied and opened the window. It was a bit cold outside, and a gust of cold wind blew through the window. Qian Liu quickly fetched a cloak and put it on Yun Shang.

Yun Shang was brought back to her senses by the cold wind. She asked Qian Liu to help her with her hair and then asked softly, "How is everything going on in Wang Congwen's mansion?"

Qian Liu replied softly, "I'm back to report this to your highness. Wang Congwen is now quite cooperative. Things are going well these days. And everything is almost done. However, the secret guards found by chance that Wang Congwen seemed to have some secret connections with the seventh prince. He seemed to be well behaved in the daytime as he knew our secret guards were following him. However, he sneaked out of the mansion at midnight twice and went to the seventh prince' mansion. He stayed there for about two hours each time. "

"Wang Congwen? The seventh prince' mansion? Lady Xian? The seventh prince? " Yun Shang sneered and thought, 'Things were getting more interesting.'
