However, this battle also caused great losses. The State of Xia had also consumed a lot of soldiers. It was okay in the Lingxi City, but outside the city, there were corpses everywhere, which brought some heaviness to the people while they were enjoying their victory.
After staying in the Lingxi City for more than half a month, Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang finished the management of the battlefield and sorted out the follow-up matters. At the end of June, they returned to the palace.
Before they got to the Jin City, the news of the great victory had already spread to the city. The story of Yun Shang's all-sided array had already become the favorite story of storytellers' in the tea house.
Therefore, on the day they entered the city, almost all the people there came out to welcome their happy return. Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan sat in the imperial carriage, holding Bao'er in her arms. Outside the carriage, cheers for his Majesty resounded through the sky.
After the carriage entered the palace gate, Luo Qingyan went straight to the Taiji Palace. Yun Shang went directly to the Weiyang Palace.
Getting off the carriage, Yun Shang saw that all the ladies in the palace were in the Weiyang Palace. It seemed that they had been waiting there for a long time. Yun Shang took a deep breath and stepped into the Weiyang Palace.
Lady Li walked up first, bowed with the others to Yun Shang, and then looked up at her with a smile, "Your Majesty, you have won a big victory on the battlefield. Congratulations!"
Yun Shang smiled and said, "Thank you for your appreciation. I didn't do anything special actually." As Yun Shang spoke, she stepped into the main hall of the Weiyang Palace.
Qian Zhuo and Qin Yi came up,
dy Wan and Qi Ruihai, in which she said she only had one child and she must protect him. She didn't want the nineteenth Prince to be a victim in the struggle for that position.
Yun Shang then realized that Lady Wan was afraid that the nineteenth Prince would be affected during the fight between Luo Qingyan and Xia Houjing for the throne.
Yun Shang curled her lips and thought, 'Lady Wan is such a stone-hearted mother.'. Although the pills made of the three kinds of medicine wouldn't hurt the nineteenth Prince' body, they were forbidden after all and had quite a big harm.
"Since your majesty is not in the palace, we don't dare to deal with it rashly. We only collected evidence so that you will make a decision after you return to the palace. What do you think we should do?" Qian Zhuo asked softly.
Yun Shang curled her lips and said with a hint of slyness in her eyes, "The nineteenth Prince is only a child of three or four years old. He can't pose a threat to anyone. But this can be a handle for us to win over Qi Ruihai. Doesn't Qi Ruihai care so much about his sister? I will protect his sister for him, but he must work for me. "
