Chapter 687 Lantern Festival (1/2)
Yun Shang nodded and thought for a while. ”I'm afraid the method I discussed with grandmother to plot against the seventh prince has to be taken earlier. I have some candidates, some girls who has been trained for being sent into the imperial palace. I'm afraid Hua Yutong is so innocent that she might fall in love with the seventh prince.”
Lady Hua Guo shook her hand, ”You don't need to worry about that. Even she is innocent, she knows very well that she shouldn't fall in love with the seventh prince. She is outgoing and could easily get on well with others, but she has self-control. But I think it's a good idea to take action earlier. Then we don't have to worry about it.”
After they talked for a while, a servant knocked on the door. ”Your Highness, His Highness asked me to invite you to the garden house.”
Yun Shang stood up with a smile, ”I'm afraid grandpas have already finished a round. Let's go to the garden house for dinner.” Then she asked Qin Yi to order the maids to serve dishes.
Lord Hua Guo and his wife left after dinner. Yun Shang wanted to have a good talk with Xiao Yuanshan, but Luo Qingyan rejected her. ”Grand tutor must be exhausted with the long journey. Let him have a good rest today.”
Xiao Yuanshan nodded with a smile. ”I will stay in the State of Xia for a while. I have plenty of time.”
Although Yun Shang was reluctant, she had to agree. She took Xiao Yuanshan to the guest house and went back to the yard with Luo Qingyan.
Back in the yard, Yun Shang lied down on the soft couch. She looked at Luo Qingyan, who went straight to the desk, and smiled, ”Who won just now?”
Hearing that, Luo Qingyan smiled. ”Of course your husband is the winner.”
”You are shameless! How could you contend for the winner with two seniors?” Yun Shang reprimanded him with a smile.
Luo Qingyan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile. ”My lady, you are wrong. There is no father and son in this battlefield. Whether the two armies are close or not, their only purpose is to win.”
Yun Shang thought for a while and asked, ”You have known matter of the State of Yelang, haven't you?”
”What?” Luo Qingyan looked at Yun Shang and smiled. Then he nodded, ”Well, maybe I knew it earlier than His Majesty. Is it Lady Hua Guo who told you about it?”
