The thrilling banquet finally ended in the evening.Yun Shang followed Luo Qingyan to the palace gate. On the way, people greeted Luo Qingyan from time to time. Luo Qingyan only nodded coldly to as an answer.
A gaze fell on Yun Shang. Perhaps it was because the gaze was too unfriendly, that Yun Shang noticed it at once. Yun Shang turned around and saw a woman in a long carmine dress looking at her.
Yun Shang recognized her at a glance. She was the woman who had volunteered to play a war song after the assassination.
Luo Qingyan didn't hear the footsteps of Yun Shang behind him. He turned to look at Yun Shang and followed her gaze, "What's wrong?"
Yun Shang smiled and said softly, "I'm afraid that lady has taken a fancy to your highness. She has been hostile to me since we were in the palace."
Luo Qingyan looked at the woman coldly. He held Yun Shang's hand and said softly, "Don't worry, my lady. All the other women except you are just moving stones in my eyes."
Yun Shang couldn't help but burst into laughter. She said with a smile, "Your Highness, may I ask where the rouge stone came from?"
Luo Qingyan sneered, "She is the daughter of the Bangyan."
"Daughter?" There was a hint of surprise in Yun Shang's eyes. She knew that among the top 3, Bangyanwas the only person who was not controlled by Luo Qingyan. But she thought that the Bangyan, Li Ye, was at most thirty years old, but she didn't expect his daughter to be so old.
"Yes, it took him more than 20 years to get the top of the list. It's really difficult for him being so old to get the position," Luo Qingyan squinted and said indifferently.
Yun Shang turned around and looked at the woman in a long carmine dress again. She saw a middle-aged man standing next to her. He looked about forty years old. His face was sallow and yellow, and his eyes were empty.
Yun Shang narrowed her eyes, but kept silent. Li Ye's appearance was exactly the same as that of a person who had read for more than 20 years in Yun Shang's heart. A person had been trying to get a scholarly honour for twenty years, so he was very stubborn about it. Such a person might only be able to study hard, and he might not even be able to care about his own life. What could Xia Houjing do to arrange such a rigid man in the court?
And
Yun Shang recalled the performance of the woman in a long carmine dress. She was more like a martial artist, with a sense of sharpness in her actions. Moreover, she just said that she wanted to play a war song for everyone.
If the ranking had nothing to do with that woman, she would still feel that nothing was wrong.
But that woman was Li Ye's daughter. How could a stereotyped person teach such a daughter? Practicing martial arts was straightforward and bold, and there was a bit of pride in his expression.
With a thoughtful look in her eyes, Yun Shang turned around and walked to the palace gate side by side with Luo Qingyan.
Yun Shang heard whispers coming from the side, and the voice fell faintly into Yun Shang's ears, "The Crown Princess is too rude. How could she w
tter. "
Yun Shang raised her eyebrows, snorted and raised the corners of her mouth, "Your Highness, don't blame me. Tell me, what's the matter with the assassin today?"
"What?" Luo Qingyan turned to look at Yun Shang, "The acrobatics team was invited back by the Ministry of rites, and both his majesty and Empress Hua nodded. But I'm afraid that something has happened to Cangjue Qingsu. Cangjue Qingsu is really ruthless."
Hearing this, Yun Shang looked up at Luo Qingyan and said with a smile, "Those daredevils are good at acting, but the leader's words have been slightly worse."
Luo Qingyan smiled and didn't deny it.
Yun Shang continued, "As soon as the troupe came out, I sensed that something was wrong. Everyone was watching carefully. Although you were also watching, you were nervous as if you were on guard at any time. You have never been like this when others performed at the beginning. If it's because you like to play juggler very much, I don't believe it anyway. When those people took out their swords from the tall sticks, everyone was shocked. Even I was a little surprised, but you didn't show any surprise on your face. Instead, you quickly pressed my hand. "
Yun Shang kept silent for a while and said, "Besides, you know I don't like eating pears, so you peeled a pear for me. There are many fruits on the plate, including oranges, plums, and bananas. But you chose the pear that I don't like most. I didn't understand it before, and then I came back to my senses. It was probably because the pear was the only thing that needed to be peeled in the plate. You can't use a sharp weapon in the palace. You can ask the servants for a dagger for the sake of peeling the pear, just for the following things. "
Luo Qingyan looked at Yun Shang with a doting smile, "Your ladyship is so smart."
"Your Highness, you don't want to have more concubines, do you? What do you want to do next, your highness? " Yun Shang asked with great interest.
Luo Qingyan patted Yun Shang's forehead and said with a smile, "Just wait and see."
