Chapter 729 Drowning (1/2)

Hearing this, Ning Qian's face suddenly turned cold and snapped, ”Nonsense!”

Seeing blue veins standing out on her forehead, Yun Shang couldn't help laughing, ”It's indeed absurd. But don't worry too much. Be careful of your baby.”

Ning Qian glanced at the people outside the pavilion, and they were all trembling with fear.

Ning Qian said in a low voice, ”Why am I so angry? I've heard a lot about Lady Rui and Prince Rui. It can be said that the two of them are the typical couples in the State of Ning and in the State of Xia.”

Seeing that everyone was listening carefully, Ning Qian continued, ”When Prince Rui was in the State of Ning, he was twenty-seven years old and unmarried. Though he was a well-known God of war, he had never had a relationship with a lady until he met Lady Rui. Before that, he even didn't have a maid by his side. Lady Rui was the most honorable princess in the State of Ning at that time. After they played the popular melody, Courting A Phoenix, they fell in love with each other. After the two got married, many women wanted to marry Prince Rui as his concubines for he was in a high position, but they were rejected by him one by one. Prince Rui promised that he would love Lady Rui all his life and wouldn't marry anyone else.”

Yun Shang smiled. It seemed Ning Qian had learnt a lot after living in the Palace for a year. She knew how to use some roundabout ways to dispel the suspicion of others.

But thinking of Luo Qingyan, Yun Shang sighed and murmured, ”Wish I can find the true love of my life that I would never leave until the end of time.”

Then she stood up and said, ”Cai Yi will deal with it. Since you're here to look for me, let's go back to the Zhaoxia Palace and have a rest. It's near the lake and the wind is a little strong. You didn't wear enough clothes. Be careful not to catch a cold.”

Ning Qian nodded and followed Yun Shang to stand up. Then she led the ladies to the Zhaoxia Palace.

The woman behind Ning Qian was interested in the story that Ning Qian had just told. She said softly, ”I've heard that Prince Rui was adopted by the late Emperor of the State of Ning, so he was Lady Rui's...”

”Uncle.” Yun Shang smiled. ”Yes, Prince Rui was my uncle at that time.”

The woman was stunned at her words. Then she smiled and said, ”Then it must have been harder for you two to get together. But it's really enviable that the cold prince could be totally enamored of Your Highness.”

The tips of Yun Shang's mouth lifted in a smile. She thought, 'It's not too hard. It should've been a scandal that uncle and nephew being married in the royal family, but Luo Qingyan was so confident and strong that he didn't even care about what others said.' Besides, Luo Qingyan and she were not real uncle and nephew, so it was not a big deal.
