Chapter 1045 A Storm In The City (1/2)

”I don't like to be deceived. If Lady Li really did so, it was a betrayal. I can't let her go easily.” Yun Shang squinted and said in a dangerous tone.

Lady Cao seemed to be startled by Yun Shang's reaction. She stiffened slightly and hurriedly echoed, ”Of course it should be. Your majesty saw that Lady Li had no children to rely on in the palace, so you trusted her so much. But she did such a thing behind your majesty's back. It's really chilling.”

Yun Shang rolled her eyes and said indifferently, ”I will send someone to investigate it. Thank you for coming to report.”

Lady Cao said a few polite words and left with a smile. After sending Lady Cao out of Weiyang Palace, Qian Zhuo returned to the main hall. Seeing that Yun Shang was looking at the light with a cup in her hand, Qian Zhuo walked up to Yun Shang and asked softly, ”Your majesty, do you need me to ask Lady Li here?”

”What for? Even if it was true, we could only investigate it in secret. Besides, did you and Qin Yi keep an eye on them as I told you? ” Yun Shang put the green cup on the table.

”Yes, your majesty. Your Majesty's seal has never been out of our sight for a moment.” Qian Zhuo answered in a hurry.

Yun Shang nodded, ”That's it. Lady Li is a weak woman who doesn't know kung fu. Can she use my private seal under your watch?”

It was not until then that Qian Zhuo understood what Yun Shang meant. ”Your Majesty, do you mean that Lady Cao has told a lie?”

Yun Shang just smiled. She didn't say yes or no. she just ordered in a low voice, ”Send some secret guards to keep an eye on Lady Li.”

Qian Zhuo was stunned for a while before she answered yes and left. Yun Shang picked up the teapot and poured a cup of hot water. Then she stood up and put the cup in the bird cage. Seeing the parrot pecking in the cup, Yun Shang smiled, ”interesting.”

It was said that a pregnant woman was stupid for three years. Since she gave birth to Bao'er, she felt that she seemed to be much more dull. Just like before when Xia Huanyu took Xia Houjing to Yang Liu Town, she only saw hidden dangers, but did not see a chance. This time, she had only seen through Lady Cao's care for the fifteenth Princess. She didn't expect that Xia Houjing was born in her palace more than 20 years ago. Xia Houjing should also call her aunt.

Cao Shanxiu had said that she had a good relationship with Cao Wenxi before when they were young. In that case, how could she just stand by and watch Luo Qingyan and she deal with Xia Houjing.
