Chapter 1185 The Fire
"Since Yu Nian is no longer here, the people below all stick to their own words when they were
interrogate. They all insisted that what they said was true, and they had evidence and witnesses. I'm so
incompetent that I can't tell who is telling the truth and who is telling the lies," Yan Pin reported.
Yun Shang raised her hand and let the servants take off the heavy dress for her. There was no
expression on her face, "Since we can't tell whether it's true or not, it's easy to deal with them. We can
beat each of them 20 times and lower them to the low class maids. Send them back to the inner temple
and ask the madam in charge to redistribute them."
"Yes, your majesty." Yan Pin lowered her eyes, looking a little depressed.
Yun Shang sensed the emotion in her words. She turned to her and said, "You used to be obsessed
with the skills of making clothes and embroidery, but now you are suddenly promoted to the position of
a steward. It's normal that you can't adapt to it in a short time. The Shangyi Bureau is only one of the
six departments, but it's always in the first place for the list of clothing, food, living and transportation.
The Shangyi Bureau is in charge of the clothes of me, his majesty and most of the people in the
imperial household. It's very important. No mistake is allowed. I will give you some time to adapt to it,
but I hope it won't be too long. "
"I understand," replied Yan Pin, a little shocked
Yun Shang nodded slightly, "How to manage your subordinates is also a subject. If you really don't
understand something, you can go to the Imperial Household Department to ask Qin Yi for advice."
"Yes, your majesty. I understand. Thank you for your help."
Yun Shang smiled and said nothing.
After the servants changed clothes for Yun Shang, she turned around in front of the mirror and said
with a smile, "A few days ago, I was also praising you with my servants around. They said that since
you took over the Shangyi Bureau, the clothes you sent here are much better. But as the manager of
the Shangyi Bureau, it's not enough to make beautiful clothes. " NôvelDrama.Org content.
Yan Pin responded. Yun Shang waved her hand and asked her to leave. Then she sat down in front of
the bronze mirror and let the servants help her with her make-up.
"Steward Yan is a honest person. If she can't find out the truth, she can let it be. However, she even
came here to ask you what to do with it. If it's an ordinary person, I'm afraid even if he can't find
anything, he will try to find a few scapegoats to give you an explanation, " said Qian Zhuo while quickly
removing the hair accessories on Yun Shang's head.
"It's true," Yun Shang also said smilingly, "In the imperial household, it's hard to find an honest people.
Let's see if it's true or not."
Yun Shang didn't explain why she said so. She just ordered Qian Liu, "Bring Chengye here. We'll go to
the imperial banquet together."
"Bring the Crown Prince with you?" Qian Liu seemed a little surprised, "Your majesty seldom brought
the Crown Prince with you at the previous banquets."
Yun Shang lowered her eyes and said, "Chengye is now the Crown Prince. It's more effective for him to
see something with his own eyes than to hear the Grand Tutor say it ten or a hundred times. He should
know how to deal with the deceit and flattery at the banquet. He should know how to guard against
himself.
"The more he sees now, the more skillful he will be in dealing with it in the future."
Qian Liu answered in a low voice and left. After a short while, Chengye ran inside, followed by many
servants.
"Mother, aunt Qian Liu said you will take me to the imperial banquet," he said excitedly.
Yun Shang nodded, "Do you want to go?"
"Is there anything interesting?" Chengye blinked and looked at Yun Shang.
The servants hurried to bring an embroidered stool for him.
Yun Shang thought for a while and said, "Yes, there are. People can dance, and there may be some
acrobatics. There is not only fun, but also delicious food. "
"Great! I'll Go! I'll go! " Chengye immediately raised his hand high and his eyes lit up.
Yun Shang was amused by his response, "Then we have a deal. During the banquet, you have to listen
to me. Don't run around or shout. Otherwise, I'll ask someone to bring you back, and I won't give you
any toys or invite you to the imperial banquet in the future. "
"Okay, Mother. Don't worry!" Chengye replied.
Yun Shang smiled and stroked him. She looked up at the sand clock on the bookshelf and said, "It's
about time. Let's go."
It was a big day today when the enthronement ceremony and the Empress coronation were both held,
and the banquet was set in the Golden Hall of the Taiji Palace.
Yun Shang walked out of the Weiyang Palace. As soon as she got on the Phoenix chariot with
Chengye in her arms, she saw Qian Yin coming quickly.
Qian Yin was five months pregnant, and her belly had slightly bulged.
Seeing this, Yun Shang hurriedly said to her, "Slow down. You are going to be a mother. How can you
be so reckless?"
"Your Majesty..." Qian Yin curtsied to her.
"But what happened outside the palace?" Yun Shang asked.
Qian Yin nodded, "His majesty has posted a notice that there will be eight Temples of Heaven for
praying in the Jin City. He will gather monks and Taoist priests from all the temples around the Jin City
to pray there for the people of the State of Xia."
Yun Shang nodded. She knew about the notice. After she met the people from the five prominent clans,
on her way back to the palace, she happened to meet soldiers putting up the notices, and she had read
it with her own eyes.
"But what's wrong with Temple of Heaven?" Yun Shang asked, "And hasn't his majesty sent a lot of
secret guards and guards to keep an eye on these temples? With so many secret guards and guards,
I'm afraid that even mosquitoes can't fly into the Temple of Heaven. How could something happen? "
"It's not Temple of Heaven," Qian Yin frowned and said, "There are fires in many places in the city. The
places where there are fires happen to be the adjacent place of every two Temple of Heavens.
People have always thought that fire is a sign of great disaster, which is very ominous. Today is a big
day for the emperor's enthronement ceremony and your Majesty's coronation, but there are so many
fires in the city. Although the secret guards and spies found them in time and have quickly extinguished
them, many people have seen the fire accident. Now there are rumors outside. They said that... "
Yun Shang sneered, "What did they say? They might say fire is not a good omen. It indicates that his
majesty and I are ominous and will bring disasters to the State of Xia? "
"Almost that way," Qian Yin lowered her head and went on, "The secret guards have also caught
several suspects who set fire, but as the fire had already been on, even if we caught the culprit out, I'm
afraid that the rumors will not be able to subside..."
Yun Shang pressed her lips and asked, "Has his majesty known about it?"
"The secret guards should have reported it to his majesty," Qian yin reported.
Yun Shang nodded, "Come with me to the Taiji Palace. I'll discuss it with his majesty. But I believe his
majesty and I should have the same idea. "
Yun Shang narrowed her eyes and went on, "Since someone has set the fire, what we need to do is
probably not to put out the fire, catch the culprit or let the rumors subside. And I think we should make
the fire stronger, so that the rumors can be more intense... "
