Chapter 1189 A Divine Punishment

After Liu Wenan left, a secret guard came to report again, "The notice was posted at a quarter to ten in the morning. By 4 pm, thirty-seven deserted houses had been burnt down by the fire..."

Luo Qingyan nodded, "What about the rumors in the city?"

"After the houses near the Temple of Heaven were on fire, there were many rumors. It was said that the Emperor and the Empress were ominous people and would affect the luck of the State of Xia. That was why fires came out everywhere on the day of the enthronement and the grand coronation. They also said that the fire was from the heaven and the punishment was from the heaven, too. "

Yun Shang sneered, "There are still many tricks. And even heavenly fire."

The secret guard went on, "But later, after we posted the notice, and spread our ideas out as soon as possible. Soon, the rumors in the city changed.

At the beginning, many people kept an unbelievable attitude. They said that fire was an ominous thing. How could his majesty burn houses on his enthronement ceremony?

But later, many people went to the notice board to read it, and then they began to talk about it and believe it.. Under our deliberate guidance, many people began to talk about this matter. Some said that his Majesty's action was really bold. It's said that in the world of the Emperor, their life should have been more prosperous than anywhere else. In the Imperial City, there shouldn't have been too many deserted houses, and many of the courtyards have collapsed. It's really not good to leave them there. So your majesty is wise to do so.

After discussing it was right or wrong of this matter as well as whether it was ominous or no for your Majesty's setting fire, people began to discuss gradually where there were houses being burned and what was the most suitable thing to build in that place. Since then, the rumors about the heavenly fire and the ominous rumors about the emperor and the Empress in the morning have completely disappeared. "

Yun Shang nodded, "This makes sense."

The secret guard lowered his eyes and said, "The

thought about it carefully, "The first time I saw Shang'er, she was only eight years old at that time? She seemed to be eight years old... We were discussing something with your father, when you came in.

"Did Shang'er fall in love with me at that time?"

Yun Shang had no impression of the first time when they met. She blushed, gnashed her teeth and stared at Luo Qingyan, "What are you talking about? I was just very young at that time? Are you an animal or I am? "

Luo Qingyan's eyes were full of smile, "Although you were only eight years old at that time, I remember that Shang'er once told me that you were eight years old when you were reborn. Judging from the situation at that time, you should have been who you are now. Although you were only eight years old at that time, the soul living in your heart was not. It wouldn't be strange if you fell in love with me at that time. "

"……" Yun Shang didn't want to argue with Luo Qingyan anymore. She just glared at him and changed the topic, "I'm a little hungry. It's time for dinner, isn't it? During the banquet, we ate a little later than usual, so I told the servants to prepare the food when I tell them to serve. "

Luo Qingyan looked at Yun Shang with a smile, "I suddenly know what I want Shang'er to do."

"What?" Yun Shang asked curiously.

However, Luo Qingyan kept her in suspense, "You'll know it later."
