An Eight-year-old Princess

Chapter 228 An Unexpected Incident (Part Two)

The headman of the secret guards was a middle-aged man. He was silent for a while before he said,

"His Highness said we must protect your highness with our lives."

Yun Shang's face was pale with fright after several hours' running and scare. After a while, she laughed

and pulled out the dagger from her boot, placing it against her neck. "If anything happens to father and

mother, I'll die here. I'll wait and see how you explain it to Prince Jing." I'm good at martial arts. I can

protect myself. Just go and find His Majesty and Lady Jin."

The secret guards looked up at Yun Shang. After a while, the middle-aged man nodded and waved at

the people behind him, and the secret guards disappeared in front of Yun Shang.

Yun Shang sighed. If Ning Qian hadn't pretended to be the Empress in the palace and she had taken

her revenge and asked all her people in the Jinluan Hall, she wouldn't have had to threaten Prince

Jing's people like this.

The hidden guard looked around and did not find the traces of Emperor Ning and Lady Jin. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Yun Shang continued to walk forward. After another two forests, she would arrive at Laifeng City. What

happened to father and mother? Yun Shang gradually calmed down. She frowned. If things went on as

usual, their troops would have already passed the woods. But no trace of war could be found in the

woods. Did father and mother come back to Laifeng City again?

Yun Shang then called two shadow guards to Laifeng City, and the rest followed her.

They walked for about two hours and arrived at a forest. This time, before they entered the forest, the

secret guards were on their guard. "Your Highness, there's a sound in the forest ahead. There are

many people."

Yun Shang shivered all over. She was about to walk towards the woods when a secret guard stopped

her. "Be careful, Your Highness."

Yun Shang was worried, but she didn't lose her mind. She knew that if she rushed in, and if Xia Houjing

and Li Jingyan were there, they wouldn't let her go.

She couldn't give them any more chance to threaten her mother or Prince Jing.

Yun Shang meditated for a while and said, "I have given up my horse. Let's go into the forest together.

It's difficult to hide ourselves in such a chaotic place with so many things covered."

Then she jumped off the horse and went straight into the forest. The dark guard followed her in a hurry.

She crept into the forest through the grass. The sounds became clearer in the forest. There were

sounds of killing, weapons colliding, and someone falling.

Yun Shang was hidden on a tree by the secret guards. They jumped from the crown to the crown.

Everything in the forest could be seen clearly.

The fight was fierce. Yun Shang saw several people standing in front of a armor. She frowned, and one

of them looked a little familiar. It took her a while to remember that he was the Grand Councilor Li

Jingyan.

Since Grand Councilor Li was here, he should be with Xia Houjing. Is my father here?

Yun Shang ordered her guards to spare them and moved forward. There were dark groups of people in

front of Li Jingyan and Xia Houjing. Yun Shang stared at them. They were dressed exactly like the

corpses of the secret guards she had found before. The secret guards were here to protect her father

and mother?

Yun Shang jumped forward, and fell on the ground after passing the black mass.

"Who is it?" The moment Yun Shang fell on the ground, two swords were placed on her neck.

"Stop! Princess Yun Shang is before you. Don't be so rude to Prince Jing's wife." Yun Shang turned to

look at the man who was holding a sword on her neck, and asked anxiously, "are you my father's

secret guards? Where are father and mother now? "

The shadow guards looked suspiciously at Yun Shang and the shadow guards behind her. Yun Shang

reached out to her waist, and did not know when her token had disappeared. The sword was even

closer to her neck.

The secret guards behind Yun Shang quickly took out their own token and said, "we are the secret

guards of Prince Jing. We are ordered to protect Her Highness under the orders of Prince Jing."

The secret guards believed them. They took down the sword and bowed to Yun Shang. "I don't know

it's Your Highness, we didn't mean to offend you. His Majesty and Lady Jin are still in the temporary

imperial palace in Laifeng City, with other guards protecting them."

Yun Shang was surprised. She turned to the guard and asked, "father and mother said they are going

back to the palace today. Didn't they go?"

The dark guard nodded, "yes. The Emperor doubted the Grand Councilor's spy in the temporary

imperial palace, so he made the plot. He sent a message to the Prince that today's trip was to lure the

snake out of the hole. "

Yun Shang was surprised and relieved. She knew that after so many years when her father had been

in the throne, he couldn't have been so careless. He should have returned to the palace after getting

everything ready.

But when she thought of Jing Wenxi, Yun Shang got anxious again. As long as Jing Wenxi was in the

Laifeng Palace, Yun Shang couldn't rest assured.

"His Highness has brought reinforcements, but Grand Councilor Li has been suspicious for a long time.

I'm afraid he will doubt it soon. You'd better stall for some time." Yun Shang ordered. She took a horse

and went to Laifeng Palace.

It took about two hours before they reached Laifeng City. As they arrived, the gate of Laifeng City was

also shut down. Yun Shang knocked at the gate, and saw an archer on the city wall. The assassin

immediately revealed his identity. Two men came out of the gate. The guard examined the men, and

allowed Yun Shang in.

The Laifeng Palace was located halfway up a mountain behind Laifeng City. Yun Shang climbed the

mountain, and it took her a lot of time to enter the temporary imperial palace. As soon as she entered,

she saw all the people in the temporary imperial palace scurry with each other.

Yun Shang asked a maid and knew the youngest prince was ill.

Yun Shang was shocked. She bit her lip and wondered if Jing Wenxi had already laid hands on her? Or

did she do something to her brother?

Yun Shang ran to the palace where Lady Jin lived in a hurry and saw the gate of the palace closed.

There were several guards standing at the gate. She went forward, but was stopped.

"This is Princess Yun Shang. Please let me in." Yun Shang frowned, looking unhappy.

The guard shook his head. "The little prince has got pimples. To prevent infected, nobody is allowed to

enter."

He got a pimple? Yun Shang turned pale. How could that be? She knew exactly what it meant to have

a pimple on a kid's head, and she was even more worried about it. At the same time, she was also a

little curious, wondering why her brother had got a pimple on a hot summer day, usually in spring or

winter.

"Where are His Majesty and Lady Jin?" Yun Shang asked.

The guard replied expressionlessly, "both His Majesty and Lady Jin are inside."

"Mother! Mother! I'm Yun Shang I've learned medicine. Please let me in to see my brother. " Yun Shang

shouted outside the door.

Yun Shang shouted for a long time. When she was about to break in, the door was suddenly opened.

Before she could do so, she heard a "stop her", and the guards blocked her out.

Yun Shang was taken by surprise. She looked up and saw her mother standing in the doorway, looking

at her from afar. "You've never had any pimples. Don't come in."

Yun Shang hurriedly said, "mother, let me in. I've learned medicine and I know how to take care of my

brother."

Lady Jin wasn't convinced. "Madam Zheng has also learned medicine. She will take care of Chenxi."

Yun Shang frowned as she knew that her mother would never let her in. She sighed and was about to

take two steps back when a delicate voice said, "Lady Jin, Xi'er has applied medicine for the youngest

prince."

Yun Shang saw Jing Wenxi coming out from the palace. Jing Wenxi saw Yun Shang's blank

expression, so she drew a smile and greeted Yun Shang, "Princess Yun Shang, what brings you here?

You haven't got any pimple yet. Don't come in with it. You might get infected. "

She seemed to care about Yun Shang a lot. Yun Shang frowned. She didn't believe that such a

coincidence would happen to her. What had happened to her on her first visit to Laifeng City. It didn't

matter when Chenxi had a pimple. She believed in Madam Zheng's medical skills. However, Jing

Wenxi was taking care of Chenxi in the ward. If she was really going to hurt Chenxi, then Chenxi would

be in danger.

Thinking of this, Yun Shang put her hand in the sleeve and suddenly raised her hand to slap the two

guards in front of her. Since Jing Wenxi was here, she couldn't expose her martial arts. But it would be

easy for her to get in.

The two guards became weak at once. Yun Shang seized the chance and rushed over to hold Lady

Jin. She smiled at the stunned Lady Jin, held up the needles in her hand and said, "the two guards are

so stupid. I put down a single needle. Fortunately, I learned the needles from Madam Zheng, and I've

learned how to stab the needles. I won't leave you again, mother. "

Lady Jin looked a little pale. She stared at Yun Shang for a long time before she said, "get out. What if

you get infected?"

Yun Shang lowered her mouth and remained silent for a while. Then she stood straight, turned her

back to Jing Wenxi, and spoke to Lady Jin silently, "Jing Wenxi has a problem. I can't let her get close

to Chenxi."

Lady Jin's face slightly changed. She glanced at Yun Shang before she called out to the servants.

"Make some boiling water and let the princess and Miss Jing take a bath. Change into clean clothes

and get out of here."

Yun Shang shook her head, "mother, since I've already come in, I won't go out again." Then she turned

to Jing Wenxi, "Miss Jing, you are taking care of Chenxi. You must have had the pimples. You won't be

infected. Please leave. I'm here and everything is fine."

Jing Wenxi widened her eyes and looked at Yun Shang hesitantly, "but..."

Yun Shang left her no chance to speak. "Prince Jing is coming with his soldiers. They are about to

arrive at the temporary imperial palace. I can't go out now. Miss Jing, please tell Prince Jing that I will

go out as soon as I get rid of Chenxi's pimple."
