Thinking of this, Yun Shang asked again, "When did Lady Lian send these things here? Did she ask someone to send them here or in person? "
There were a lot of people coming to deliver the gifts today, but the gift from Lady Lian was so special that Hua'er was deeply impressed, so she replied, "About an hour ago, it was lady Lian who sent it here in person. She also told me that she specially sent someone to ask the Master of the Qinglian Temple to personally forge and consecrate it. It must be very efficacious."
Yun Shang closed the pamphlet and sneered. Two hours ago, it was the time after she and Luo Qingyan left the Changting Garden.
After they left, the secret guards must have dealt with those who stood behind Xia Houjing, and let the others go. Then Lady Lian returned to her palace, took her gift and sent it to the Jinxiu Palace.
Yun Shang's look was cold and penetrating. She had thought that Lady Lian had made a lot of mistakes in front of her before, and that she must be a spy placed by Xia Houjing in the imperial household.
But she didn't expect Lady Lian to be so interesting.
In the Changting Garden, she should have clearly seen that Xia Houjing had an absolute advantage, but she remained unmoved when Xia Houjing asked his men to stand out.
She had witnessed that the secret guards had dealt with Xia Houjing's supporters in the palace, but she was still able to return to her own palace without fear and send her gifts.
She was not giving her an ordinary gift, but a very meaningful and sensitive one.
Wasn't she afraid that Yun Shang would kill her in anger?
Of course, Lady Lian was not afraid.
No matter what, Yun Shang had never admitted that she was infertile.
If it was true that because Lady Lian sent her a statue of Guanyin, the goddess of sending children, Yun Shang would be angry and get rid of one of the imperial concubines. She would seem to be trying to cover up something.
"Your Majesty, should this gift be dealt with differently?" Hua'er asked cautiously.
Yun Shang smiled and casually put the pamphlet aside saying, "No need. It'
dded, "That's good. How is it going at the frontier?"
"It has been peaceful for the time being since Cangjue Qingsu withdrew his troops. But there are still some soldiers of the the State of Yelang moving around in the border area, and some disguised as ordinary people sneaking into the border city, as if they are seeking information.
I have caught some of them, but I can't get any information from the interrogation."
Yun Shang was not surprised at all, "People like Cangjue Qingsu are always ambitious. He will not reconcile himself to failure. Although he lost this time, he will not give up easily. He will come back when the right time is found. "
Zhao Yingjie nodded, "That's also what I think, so I want to go back to the frontier when the Jin City is a little stable."
"You don't have to be in such a hurry." Yun Shang smiled, "I don't think we need to worry too much this winter. Most of the places in the the State of Yelang is grassland. Their biggest advantage in war is their strong horses and soldiers. They are very powerful.
It's just because it is in winter, the grass on the grassland has withered, and there is a lack of food. In addition, it is cold in the north, and neither the horses nor the people are in a good condition. It's really asking for trouble for them to fight with us now."
Zhao Yingjie thought for a while and praised, "Your Majesty, you are right."
