An Eight-year-old Princess

Chapter 1405 Why Didn't They Test Him

Luo Qingyan chuckled and gave Yun Shang a thumbs up, "Well, it is really a good idea, your majesty.

Xia Houjing certainly will not expect that his plan has been completely exposed when it has just begun

to be implemented. Moreover, the Empress has already thought of a way to deal with it and we'll play

him at his own game. "

Squinting at Luo Qingyan, Yun Shang turned to Liu Wenan and said, "Mister Liu, his majesty is really

good at flattering people now. He has learned this very well under your expert tutelage."

Liu Wenan was at a loss why he was suddenly involved in this matter, and he didn't know whether it

was a compliment or a disapproval. Anyway he didn't dare to accept it, "Your Majesty, I'm flattered. I

don't deserve it. All this has nothing to do with me. It's just that your majesty is indeed talented, and his

majesty is really praising you from the bottom of his heart."

Yun Shang nodded, and then she turned to Luo Qingyan, "Look, I've told you that both your behavior in

this respect is very similar. Don't you feel so ?"

"……"

"……"

After all, Luo Qingyan was more thick-skinned, "Whatever. Anyway, in my heart, whatever you say is

right."

This time, it was Yun Shang's turn to feel speechless.

Both of them laughed and joked for a while, and the servants got hot water ready for them. At last, Yun

Shang and Luo Qingyan took a bath and rested.

As Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang left the Jin City, every move of theirs received wide attention around.

Perhaps just because it was too shocking, their journey in the next few days was very quiet and

smooth.

There was no assassination.

There was poison either.

There was no careless official.

Their journey was so quiet and smooth that Yun Shang was not used to it. Sometimes she even felt

bored.

Perhaps because what Yun Shang was thinking was known, the carefully designed second test came

soon.

And this time, the method of the test was a little different from the last time.

At that time, Yun Shang was reading under a tree in the backyard of the posthouse. A cat fell from the

sky and hit right onto Yun Shang's book. Yun Shang was so shocked that she almost jumped up.

Then, a woman rushed out from nowhere and was stopped by the guards. She was trying to gesture at

Yun Shang. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

It took the servants quite some time to figure out what was going on in front of them, "The cat has been

in the yard all the time. The secret guards have sensed the smell from the cat, and someone has been

paying attention to it all the time. They thought it was the cat in the posthouse. As your majesties have

told them not to deliberately damage the things in the posthouse, the servants were not quite on guard

against it. The cat was crouching on the tree quietly, and it seemed to be asleep. However, no one

knows why it suddenly fell down.

That woman lives next to the posthouse. She has been deaf and dumb since she was a child. She is

very familiar with the posthouse manager's family and often comes here. She naturally knew well the

posthouse. She knows that there are several places there where the walls are low, and there is a hole

in the wall for drainage.

She said her cat just came in from that hole. In order to find the cat, she also came in from that hole.

She didn't expect to offend your majesty."

Yun Shang tapped the table with her fingers, turned around and exchanged a look with Luo Qingyan.

She then smiled, "I didn't expect there is such a special person among those they've bought off. A

dumb woman... She is dumb from birth, and she just lives next to the posthouse. Interesting. "

Both Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang were deeply touched. He knew what Yun Shang was talking about

immediately. He smiled and responded, "Don't look down upon such a nobody. Sometimes, it is just this

kind of people who don't look very impressive, or who you don't care about when you see them that

can strike you the most fatal blow. "

Yun Shang had suffered a lot from something like this, so she knew it clearly. She nodded slightly and

replied, "Yes, I know."

Then she asked, "Your Majesty, what do you think we should do with it?"

Luo Qingyan was not in the least interested with his eyes half closed, "It's not a big deal. Since they are

here to sound us out, Shang'er can just follow your heart and deal with it at will."

Yun Shang nodded, but she was thinking about it in her heart. She knew that it was most likely a test

for her, so she had prejudice about it from the beginning and attached too much importance to it.

Luo Qingyan's words of "not a big deal" had enlightened her.

Yun Shang looked up and ordered Pei Lan, "Send my message to the guards and let them set the

woman free. Now that the posthouse manager knows the woman, just let him deal with it.

"As the manager knows nothing about all these, I'm afraid he'll be frightened after hearing the news.

He'll teach her a good lesson when he lets the people go."

Luo Qingyan took a sip of tea and said nothing.

Seeing Pei Lan go out, Yun Shang couldn't help but feel a little curious, "During the last test, they made

use of two officials. They were not only testing me, but also testing your majesty. Thus your majesty

has dismissed the two official directly, which can dispel their doubts.

But this time, it seems that they are just testing me from beginning to end. Don't they worry that the

emperor has already left while I was hiding something? "

Hearing Yun Shang's words, Luo Qingyan couldn't help but take a meaningful look at Yun Shang.

Seeing this, Yun Shang's heart skipped a beat. She raised her hand and touched her hair, "What's

wrong? Did I say anything wrong? "

Yun Shang recalled what she said just now. It seemed that... She didn't say anything.

Luo Qingyan smiled, "I know why they didn't test me this time."

"Why?"

Yun Shang asked, feeling a little regretful. Somehow, she knew that what Luo Qingyan was about to

say was probably not something good.

Luo Qingyan's eyes twinkled with a smile, "We arrived at the posthouse yesterday. It rained all night

and didn't stop until an hour ago, so we didn't set off today."

"Yes?" Yun Shang's eyes were full of doubts. Weren't they talking about why they only tested her this

time, but didn't test Luo Qingyan? Why did he suddenly talk about the rain? And that was the

connection with the fact that they stayed here for one more day and didn't set off?

"Last night, Shang'er took a bath before going to bed, and then in the middle of the night, you asked for

a hot bath again," Luo Qingyan pointed out.

'Is there anything wrong with it?'

as soon as this thought flashed through Yun Shang's mind, she saw Luo Qingyan's smiling eyes. Her

heart skipped a beat and she suddenly understood what he meant.

Last night, because Luo Qingyan was gooey over her until midnight, she was sweating all over. Thus

she ordered hot water and took a hot bath at midnight.

Today, they just wanted to test her because they knew what happened to them last night. As long as

they made sure that she was real, they knew that Luo Qingyan was definitely not a fake.

After all... She couldn't be with anyone else except Luo Qingyan... to sleep on the same bed.
