Chapter 709 The Trap

Yun Shang hadn't recovered from the shock that the woman in front of her was Lady Yun, who had disappeared for a long time, when Lady Yun took back the paper and wrote a few more words on it. Then she held the paper up so that Yun Shang could see clearly. The handwriting of this time was illegible, especially the last two words - Save Qian Ling.

Yun Shang stared at the words for a long time before she slowly raised her head and looked at the woman who claimed to be Lady Yun. Again she raised the corners of her mouth, and her eyes met the woman's. Yun Shang didn't dodge, but asked directly "Why?"

Yes, why? The woman seemed to be confused by Yun Shang's question. She was motionless for a long time without even a blink.

Although Yun Shang's smile was still quite cold, she was now a little more relaxed. She ordered Qian Zhuo to fetch a chair, and sat down opposite Lady Yun. Her voice was calm, "I think I know you well, Lady Yun. Maybe it's because I grew up in the palace, I know very well what the women living in the palace are thinking. Therefore, after I arrived at the State of Xia, I kept a distance from the Imperial concubines. Lady Yun, you were one of the few that were intimate to me. "

Lady Yun didn't seem to understand why Yun Shang said these words. She just looked at Yun Shang blankly. Yun Shang smiled more brightly and went on, "but Lady Yun, you made me quite disappointed... "

After being silent for a long time, Lady Yun slowly put away the paper and sat on the chair, lowering her eyes.

Yun Shang ordered Qian Zhuo to find the antidote for dumbness as well as the liquid medicine for the facial disguise. Although the woman said she was Lady Yun, Qian Zhuo still did not trust her to stay in the same room with Yun Shang, so she stayed in the room and only gave the orders to the servants.

Lady Yun kept sitting quietly all the time, so Yun Shang didn't speak. About an hour later, the shadow guard found medicine Yun Shang asked for. Qian Zhuo took it over, fed an antidote pill to Lady Yun, then ordered someone to take some water, poured the liquid medicine to remov

ath. Such strong poison must have entered her mouth to cause such a result.

Yun Shang stared at the corpse of Lady Yun for a while, and then looked up at Qian Zhuo. She ordered, "Ask the shadow guard. Where did he get those two herbs for Lady Yun just now?"

Qian Yin responded in a hurry. Then she called in the guard who had taken the medicine and inquired about it. The guard was surprised and quickly replied, "I got them from Qian Yin's Magic Pharmacy, which was just opened last month."

Yun Shang's hand stopped while hearing those words, and her smile grew colder. She realized the Eldest Princess was much more difficult to deal with than she had imagined. How dared she make a move from Yun Shang's own pharmacy so brazenly?

Yun Shang wasn't surprised how the Eldest Princess knew the Magic Pharmacy was her shop. Two months ago, the princess used to be the accountant of the mansions, where some common medicinal materials are planted, and of course there are related accounts to be recorded.

Yun Shang stood up slowly and walked out of the room. She took a deep breath and felt a little relieved. She was about to order Qian Zhuo to send a message to Qian Yin, when she heard a knock on the door from outside followed by someone shouting, "Open the door! We are in charge of the cases in the Jin City. Someone reported that there is a murder here. Hurry up! Or we will break into it... "
