Chapter 1393 Murderer Behind The scenes

After saying that, Yun Shang came to her senses, "I remember that most of the hunting areas in the

State of Xia in the past would be located in the places a little northward, because more beasts could be

hunted over there. Why did you choose the south this time?"

"Both Ganhe County and the State of Yelang are in the north," said Luo Qingyan narrowing his eyes,

"It's just a bluff.

Moreover, we can choose two totally different paths from the temporary imperial palace to the Ganhe

County and to the State of Yelang respectively without any overlap. In this way, I'm more relieved. "

Yun Shang suddenly understood what it meant. Qian Zhuo pretended to be her and went to the Ganhe

County. At the same time, they would also send some other people to disguise as her and go to the

Ganhe County to deceive the enemy.

However, the enemy was not that stupid. On the way to the Ganhe County, there would be people lying

in ambush, waiting for them. Thus Luo Qingyan was afraid that she would run into them. In this way,

choosing another completely different route was the most appropriate way.

Yun Shang wasn't afraid of those people waiting on the way, but she nodded, "I see."

She should cherish her life more as she had someone she cared about.

Ling Ziyue didn't stay in prison for a few more days, and thus the result about the Kongming latern's fire

came out.

"The Ministry of Justice and the Court of Justice have joined hands to arrest all the people who have

connection with Kongming latern. They have been interrogated for five or six days, and finally someone

admitted it."

"Who has admitted?"

Yun Shang raised her eyebrows. She knew exactly why the lanterns were on fire, of course.

"A craftsman from the Ministry of Works who had taken part in the construction of the Kongming

latern," Qian Zhuo lowered her voice and reported, "It's not just a scapegoat. The craftsman did do

something on the Kongming latern, but he was found not long after he did it.

The evidence is irrefutable. After signing the paper, he was killed in secret. It is announced that he

committed suicide for fear of punishment... "

Yun Shang nodded, "you deserve more than death."

"Yes, his crime deserved more than death." Qian Zhuo nodded and then continued, "His majesty

ordered us to deal with that person and arranged a murderer behind the scenes."

"What? Who? "

"Xia Houjing," said Qian Zhuo lowering her voice, "Most people in the Jin City know little about what

happened in Liucang City and Siyang City. They don't have a bad perception of Xia Houjing. What's

more, everyone supposed that Xia Houjing was dead.

This time, his majesty not only put the name of the murderer behind the scenes on Xia Houjing, but

also made the matter public. " Taking a look at Yun Shang, Qian Zhuo went on, "At present, the whole

Jin City, and even soon, the whole State of Xia will soon know that Xia Houjing is not dead, and he still

wants to murder your majesties."

Yun Shang nodded, "It's a good time now. When Xia Houjing made a fuss in Liucang City, his majesty

was not enthroned yet. Although he was the Crown Prince, his reputation in the State of Xia at that time

was still much weaker than that of Xia Houjing's. It was not a good idea to spread the rumors about Xia

Houjing then.

And the moment, however, his majesty has ascended the throne for more than a year, and the country

is peaceful while the people are singing highly of his majesty. However, Xia Houjing had disappeared

for more than a year, and he had been accused of treason. In this case, the people will naturally

support his majesty more. "

Qian Zhuo nodded, "Yes, his majesty must have thought the same, so he made such a decision. I have

ordered the spies outside to inquire about the voices from the people. There are many people talking

about it, and most of them are blaming Xia Houjing. "

Yun Shang nodded, "That's good."

After saying that, she curled up her mouth again, "Now that Xia Houjing has lost the support from the

public, his biggest chip is gone. In addition to the arrest warrant issued by his majesty a few days ago,

the members of the Cao clan are just like to be grilled on fire now. "

Qian Zhuo nodded, "If the Cao clan indeed hide Xia Houjing, I'm afraid they are now burning with Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

anxiety. They think Xia Houjing is really a tricky problem. They don't want to keep him, and they don't

dare to throw him away."

Yun Shang uttered a "hum".

"Keep an eye on the Cao mansion. If there's any news, report it to me in time."

After a pause, she continued, "Any news is divided into two parts. One is for me, and the other is for his

majesty."

Previously, she had sent some spies to sneak into the Cao mansion, and she had also placed them

around the mansion, so she knew more about the affairs of the Cao mansion.

But if she went to the State of Yelang, many things in the Jin City couldn't be sent to her by carrier

pigeons, waiting for her to make a decision.

Maybe this kind of messages can only be handed over to Luo Qingyan.

But... Luo Qingyan had a lot of state affairs to deal with.

Yun Shang frowned and then said, "You don't have to report everything to his majesty. You can get the

news first and then sift through and report it tohis majesty if it is urgent and important. If it's not urgent,

you can put it in the pamphlet and send it to his majesty every once in a while.

If you really don't know whether the news is valuable or not, you can discuss it with Wang Wanzhi, the

imperial attendant."

Qian Zhuo responded in a hurry. She took another look at Yun Shang and then said, "Xia Houjing has

been released. I think this is the signal that your majesties start pulling in the net. I'm afraid the Cao

mansion won't be long on the stage after these few days."

"Although you can say so, we can't let down our guard. The Cao clan might not be able to survive

anymore, so we should be more careful. After all, the Cao clan is one of the famous clans in the Jin

City. If they have any intention, they will fight against us to the death...

Even if we win in the end, I'm afraid we may also suffer a great loss."

Qian Zhuo nodded and smiled, "I know what you mean, your majesty. You mean, although the Cao

clan is not our match, it's better for us to wisely take it in case of unnecessary losses, right?"

"That's what I mean."

After Yun Shang finished speaking, she thought of the news that Qian Zhuo had reported to her at the

beginning, "So, someone admitted the crime and pointed out that the person behind the scenes. That

is Xia Houjing. Then, Ling Ziyue can be released, right?"

"Yes, your majesty." Qian Zhuo nodded, "I've got the news that his majesty has ordered the prison to

free Ling Ziyue."

Yun Shang raised her eyebrows, thought for a while, and ordered Qian Zhuo, "Go to the posthouse and

invite the ladies into the palace."

Qian Zhuo understood Yun Shang's intention at once, "Your majesty, do you want to send those who

are locked up in the Palace back?"

"Yes." Yun Shang nodded, "send the message out and go to the Meeting Hall by the way. Ask his

majesty to bring Ling Ziyue here later. When Ling Ziyue is here, he understands why I have left those

women in the palace. He can restrain them in case they make trouble. "

"Yes, your majesty," responded Qian Zhuo. She then bowed and left.

Yun Shang rubbed her fingers gently in her sleeves. The person who had fooled them around wouldn't

have thought that Luo Qingyan would directly put the blame on Xia Houjing.

However, it was still unknown what else he could do next.
