An Eight-year-old Princess

Chapter 1410 Go And Return Quickly

As both the Emperor and the Empress lived in the temporary imperial palace, there were more and

more people coming in and out. However, Yun Shang knew that everyone who came in or out of the

temporary imperial palace might be watched.

"How are you going to leave?" Luo Qingyan had asked about Yun Shang's plan, but he didn't know the

details.

Thus he asked, "At this time, there are not many people leaving the temporary imperial palace.

Recently, as we have lived in the temporary imperial palace, the items that may be used here are

bought according to the masters' preferences. Thus, in the past two days, many servants have been

coming and going to and from the temporary imperial palace. Are you going to mingle in the crowd and

leave with them? "

Yun Shang shook her head, "No. The people who do the shopping in the temporary imperial palace

have all been arranged. They are those several people who are familiar with each other. If I mingle

among them with no one to support me a cover, I'll be easily exposed. Besides, Xia Houjing might have

planted his men in this purchasing group. If anything happens to me, I will be in danger. "

"Then..."

Yun Shang smiled, "The Palace should send people to deliver the memorials to the temporary imperial

palace every day, and then you will send them back after your approval, right?"

Hearing this, Luo Qingyan turned to Yun Shang and replied, "Yes."

"It is the second day that we have been in the temporary imperial palace. Yesterday evening, there

should be memorials presented to your majesty. Have you finished reading them?"

"It was a long night last night. Your majesty didn't allow me to come to stay with you. I couldn't fall

asleep alone, so I had to finish going through the memorials last night. However, I haven't ordered to

send them away."

Yun Shang lowered her eyes and smiled, "How about I send them away for your majesty?"

Luo Qingyan frowned. He then fixed his eyes on Yun Shang, but he didn't say anything.

"The secret guards who deliver the memorials are usually two people, and both of them are your

majesty's most trusted ones. They won't be bought off, and there won't be any risk of being exposed.

And because they are heading for the Jin City, there is little chance of being suspected. Even if they

may be followed, I've already arranged some secret guards on the way. At that time, we'll just play a

trick of a cicada out of its shell, " suggested Yun Shang.

That was a good idea.

On the one hand, with the secret guards' martial arts and perception, if someone followed them, they

should be able to find it out soon.

Two, in order not to be suspected, Yun Shang would leave the temporary imperial palace without any

guards. Although she was good at martial arts and could use poison medicine, Luo Qingyan still

couldn't rest assured about her. If a secret guard could be arranged to follow her righteously, he would

feel a little relieved.

Luo Qingyan soon made up his mind. Since she was going to leave, she had to go by the safest way,

"Okay, you'll go to my place first. And I'll arrange it."

When they arrived at the palace where Luo Qingyan lived, Luo Qingyan pushed the memorials on the

table to Yun Shang and said, "These memorials are to be escorted by the Empress."

Yun Shang glanced at the stack of memorials and raised her eyebrows, "I suddenly feel that it's

dangerous to pretend to be a secret guard who is to submit the memorials. If someone wants to read

the memorial, it's... It will be a terrible situation, right?"

Luo Qingyan smiled, "Xia Houjing is still in the Jin City, but we are not there. In this case, he must have

known the content of the memorials sent from the Jin City. There is no need to ask someone to stop

them halfway, instead of alerting their enemy."

"You are right."

Luo Qingyan ordered to bring over a woman secret guard who was about the same stature as Yun

Shang's. She then was quickly disguised as Yun Shang and changed her clothes with Yun Shang, too.

"This secret guard is not familiar with you, so she can only pretend to be you for a while. Are you ready

now?"

Yun Shang nodded, "She just need to pretend to be me and return to the palace where I live."

"That's good."

Luo Qingyan looked at Yun Shang and said, "But the secret guards who came to deliver the memorials

this morning were two men. If this time it suddenly changes to a man and a woman, it may be easy to

arouse suspicion."

Yun Shang nodded, "I know. I'll dress myself like a man. Fortunately, it's getting cold now, so it's easy

to disguise. I'll wear an armor and two more clothes, which will make me look stronger. Besides, I'll add

something in my shoes so that I can look taller. In this way, they will never associate this secret guard

with me. "

"Okay." Luo Qingyan nodded. Yun Shang and that secret guard quickly exchanged their clothes.

Luo Qingyan looked at Yun Shang and said, "In a minute, you'll leave with another secret guard with

the memorials. There must be someone watching you. When they are hesitating if they should send

someone to follow you, I will go out with the person who disguises as you in order to distract the

attention of those spies. "

Yun Shang cupped her hands and said with a smile, "Thank you so much, your majesty."

Luo Qingyan still fixed his eyes on Yun Shang.

Yun Shang didn't move. She was listening to Luo Qingyan's repeated advice and farewell speech.

After a long time, Luo Qingyan's lips moved slightly, but he only said, "I'm waiting for you to come

back."

Yun Shang raised her eyebrows, "That's all?"

Of course, Luo Qingyan understood what Yun Shang meant. He just smiled helplessly, "Well, you've

prepared everything. That's all. I've already told everything that I can tell. What I can say now is only

my expectation for you. "

Yun Shang nodded, "I will come back safe and sound. Your majesty, please take good care of Chengye

and yourself. It's not as safe here as in the State of Yelang. "

Luo Qingyan replied with a smile, "Well, Goodbye. Go and return quickly."

To go and return quickly? He sounded as if Yun Shang could be back soon.

Yun Shang's eyes softened and smiled, "Okay."

Yun Shang left the temporary imperial palace with her companion, the secret guard. As she had secret

guards around her all the time, she knew them very well. Of course, she was able to imitate their style

and characteristics very well.

It was not until three or four miles away from the temporary imperial palace that Yun Shang felt a little

relieved. The secret guard with her was called Gengsan. He was a man who didn't talk much but acted

very efficiently.

Seeing that Yun Shang turned around and looked in the direction of the temporary imperial palace, he

reported in a low voice, "Someone followed us when we just left the temporary imperial palace. After

we left Wei City, the stalkers retreated."

Yun Shang nodded, "It's about the same as I expected."

After saying that, Yun Shang looked up at the sky and said, "It's almost five o'clock now. We'll arrive at

the Xumeng Town in about two hours. The people I arranged are there in the town, and we'll have a

change in person there. You'll leave early tomorrow morning, and I'll leave in the afternoon."

"Okay." Gengsan nodded and then asked, "When we arrive at Xumeng Town, where will your majesty

stay?"

Yun Shang smiled, "Posthouse."
