Chapter 818 Something Usual (2/2)

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

It's said that the Emperor's been deeply loved Empress Hua. When Empress Hua was in the palace, she was the only one in his harem...”

Yun Shang had knew everything she said. She kept silent for a moment and asked, ”Do you feel anything unusual in the Palace recently?”

Seeing the serious look on Yun Shang's face, Lin Youran meditated for a while and said gently, ”Something unusual... I haven't heard of anything unusual. But a few days ago, three servants in Xiangzhu Palace suddenly disappeared...”

”Have you sent someone to look for them?” Yun Shang asked hurriedly.

”Yes, they've searched everywhere, but didn't find them.” Lin Youran replied softly.

Again, someone missing?

Yun Shang frowned and a strange look flashed through her eyes. It was normal for someone to disappear outside the Palace, but in the Palace...

It was not easy to take action in the Palace as it had always been heavily guarded.

”Have you heard of such situation in the other palaces?” Yun Shang asked hurriedly.

”I don't know whether or not it has happened in the other palaces. But I heard that some servants from the Treasure House and Shangyi Bureau have disappeared. But now His Majesty is not in the palace. Although Lady Shu was in charge of the imperial household, she seems not be responsible. She is afraid that it might make people in the Palace panic, so she suppressed it and asked the Neishi Bureau to investigate it secretly. But they've been investigating for a long time, and I haven't heard any result.” Lin Youran said in a low voice.

Yun Shang nodded slightly, ”Have you heard that many people have bought a lot of jewelries from outside the Palace?”

”Jewelries?” Lin Youran shook her head and said, ”No Lady Shu said that considerable money was needed to supply the soldiers on the front with food. So she asked everyone in the imperial household to save money, and we haven't bought any jewelry for several months. Almost every palace is like this. Knowing that Empress Hua is going back to the Palace, no one wants to stir up trouble at this moment.”

Yun Shang frowned. It was weird, but she couldn't figure it out.
