Chapter 948 His Crimes (1/2)
When they arrived at the Taiji Palace, they found no one was there. Neither Liu Wenan nor Luo Qingyan was there. The eunuch guarding at the door bowed to Yun Shang as soon as he saw her, ”Your Majesty. Are your majesty here for his majesty? Just now, the people in the Taihe Palace came, and his majesty took Master Liu to the palace. ”
Yun Shang narrowed her eyes. The Taihe Palace? Did Xia Huanyu have something to discuss with Luo Qingyan?
Yun Shang guessed in her mind, but she still smiled gently, ”Really? What a coincidence! I'm here to bring his majesty the ginger soup. In that case, please tell his majesty to go back to the Weiyang Palace for a drink. ”
After saying that, Yun Shang turned to Qian Zhuo and said, ”Let's go back.”
Qian Zhuo obeyed and followed Yun Shang behind. They turned around and walked towards Weiyang Palace along the way they came. Yun Shang kept thinking that if Xia Huanyu asked to see Luo Qingyan, there would be only a few possible things. First, he asked Luo Qingyan to choose a concubine for himself. Second, he asked Luo Qingyan something about Xia Houjing. Third, it might be about the Imperial Household Department.
However, none of these three things was a good thing.
Yun Shang frowned and gathered her cloak to stop the cold wind from blowing into her clothes.
When they returned to Weiyang Palace, Chen Ke and Qinghao were still standing at the gate of the Weiyang Palace. Both of them quickly bowed to Yun Shang.
When Yun Shang returned to the inner hall, she asked Qian Zhuo to heat up the ginger soup in the small kitchen. Then she took a book to read, but her face had not been relaxed. Seeing Qin Yi come in, Yun Shang raised her head, walked to the table, picked up a pen and wrote a line of words on the paper, and handed it to Qin Yi. After reading it, Qin Yinodded, threw the paper into the brazier and left.
Yun Shang breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the fire suddenly sprang up and burned the paper to ashes.
”Your Majesty,” Chen Ke's voice came from outside. Yun Shang walked to a chair and sat down. Then she took a book in hand and said loudly, ”Come in.”
Chen Ke lifted the bead curtain and walked in. He curtsied to Yun Shang in a hurry and said, ”Your majesty, the guards in our palace have just arrived. They said that the servants in the Imperial Household Department have finished their interrogation and there is a lot of news to report to you.”
