Chapter 863 The Death Of Court Officials (2/2)

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

”As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses.”

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.

et up Empress Hua. Although Lady Shu was the one who took the blame for the case of the pestilence in the end, the real murderer was not necessarily Lady Shu. It might be Su Ruji.

If it was Lady Shu, Lady Shu was still cooperating with the seventh Prince at that time.

The two officials who had died had one thing in common, that was, they had both targeted Luo Qingyan, but it was hard to guess who was behind them. These two people were the officials that Luo Qingyan had made up his mind to get rid of in the cleanup of the court.

From this point of view, it was very likely that the incident was aimed at Luo Qingyan.

Thinking of this, Yun Shang looked up at Hua'er and asked, ”Where is His Highness?”

Hua'er answered in a hurry, ”He was working in the study before, and was just summoned to the Palace by His Majesty.”

Hearing this, Yun Shang nodded. She was a little worried. She could almost guess why Xia Huanyu called him to the Palace. It was very likely that His Majesty wanted him to investigate the case. Although as the Crown Prince, Luo Qingyan didn't have to interfere in it in person, this was also an opportunity to let Luo Qingyan show up in front of the people of Jin City. Xia Huanyu would definitely try his best to let Luo Qingyan seize this opportunity.

Yun Shang clenched her fists. Maybe the person who set up this trap had predicted that Xia Huanyu would let Luo Qingyan investigate this matter.

Yun Shang's heart skipped a beat. She quickly raised her head and said, ”Ask someone to wait for the Crown Prince at the Palace gate. As soon as His Highness went out of the Palace, tell him that I'm waiting for him at home and have something important to tell him. Ask him to come back anyway.”

Hua'er answered and hurried out of the door.

Yun Shang stood up and walked to the window. Looking at the blurry scenery outside because of the rain, she frowned slightly. ”It's another eventful autumn.”

Qin Yi comforted her in a soft voice, ”His Highness won't be at the mercy of others. Just relax, Your Highness.”

Yun Shang nodded, but her brows were still knitted.
