Chapter 1195 Investigate
On the third day after their marriage, Qin Yi quietly left the Jin city with Zhao Yingjie and went to the
frontier.
After Zhao Yingjie and Qin Yi left, they had to prepare for the Spring Festival.
This was the first Spring Festival after Luo Qingyan became the emperor. There were a lot of things to
prepare, and Yun Shang began to be busy.
"Your majesty, this is the list of the new year gifts to be given to the officials in the court and the ladies
in the imperial household. Please have a look."
Yun Shang took it and glanced at it.
"Is it in accordance with the same rule as the past years?"
"I think so. But this year is the first year that his majesty ascends the throne, so the reward a little
more."
Yun Shang nodded, "Ok."
Qian Liu answered and took another form, "this is the list of rewards gained by the imperial household
of the previous dynasty." Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Yun Shang looked through it and felt something was missing. She frowned, but didn't remember what
was missing.
"Your majesty, do you have any supplement?" Seeing Yun Shang's expression, Qian Liu asked
hurriedly.
Yun Shang checked the list again and finally found something wrong. "It seems that there is no...
Prince Xian? "
"Prince Xian?" Qian Liu was stunned, "But didn't Prince Xian resign and leave the Jin City? Should he
get a reward? "
"Of course." Yun Shang replied, "Although Prince Xian has left the Jin City, his majesty hasn't approved
the resignation. His mansion is still reserved for him, and no one is allowed to move the servants and
things inside. This means that he is still Prince Xian."
"Although he is not in the Jin City, the new year gift should still be sent. Just send it to Prince Xian's
mansion. There should be someone in his mansion who can get in touch with him. At that time, it's up
to them to deal with it."
"From now on, don't leave out Prince Xian when giving rewards to the officials in the palace."
Qian Liu nodded and kept it in mind.
After thinking for a while, Yun Shang took out a piece of paper and wrote a message. She folded it and
handed it to Qian Liu. "Send the letter to Prince Xian's mansion together with the gift."
Qian Liu took it over and said yes. Then she continued, "There was something wrong with your
majesty's underwear for the ceremony. At that time, we had dealt with all the servants in the Shangyi
Bureau who had something with it. After that, I sent someone to check where the cloth came from.
They carefully checked the record and found that the cloth was sent by the Imperial Purveyor, the Li's "
"The Li's was chosen as the Imperial Purveyor three years ago. They mainly engaged in cloth business
in the State of Xia. The Li's cloth is well-known in the State of Xia. This is the third year they provide
cloth to the palace. There has never been anything wrong before."
Qian Liu said softly, "When the Li's was asked to send these clothes, they didn't know what the cloth
would be for. The cloth for your clothes was sent together with other first-class cloth. Then, it was Yu
Nian, the steward of the Shangyi Bureau, who personally brought someone to the Imperial Household
Department to choose the cloth. She chose it to make the underwear for your majesty. "
Yun Shang narrowed her eyes and said, "I remember that Yan Pin once mentioned that there was gold
and silver threads in the cloth. If it was used for an outer dress, the gold and silver threads would make
the clothes glitter and shine, but if it was used for an underwear, it would rub against the skin after
being worn for a long time, making people feel very uncomfortable..."
"Yes." Qian Liu nodded, "Yan Pin said so. So I think it's not necessarily that the Li's did it. It might be Yu
Nian or any other servant of Shangyi Bureau."
"There must be something wrong with the Yu Nian. As the steward of the Shangyi Bureau, she would
definitely check the cloth for the ceremonies personally. She had been in charge of the Shangyi Bureau
for so many years, so she must know it. But she still chose this cloth to make underwear for me. If she
didn't do it on purpose, I really couldn't think of any other reason. "
"As Yan Pin said, I wouldn't feel anything wrong with it after I put it on. I would feel uncomfortable after
some time. Obviously, it was prepared for the ceremony. Usually, I would take it off if I felt
uncomfortable."
"But the formal dress for the ceremony was too complicated. I will definitely change it according to the
time. I would set out directly after I got changed. I might find something wrong when the ceremony was
about to begin or after it started. But it would be too late to get changed at that time. Besides, I would
just feel a little uncomfortable at the beginning. I would probably bear it and continue the ceremony. "
"But I would feel more and more uncomfortable. If I really couldn't bear it, I would make a fool of myself
at the ceremony. By then, their goal would be achieved."
Qian Liu nodded, "That's it. Fortunately, it had been found out before your majety got changed, or the
consequences would be unthinkable."
Yun Shang smiled. There might not be any serious consequences. She had experienced a lot of
difficulties and hardships in her previous life and this life, so she could bear what ordinary people could
not bear. Even if she really wore that clothes for the ceremony, she would definitely be able to hold on
until the end of the ceremony.
"But it's hard to tell if this matter has anything to do with the Li's. And Yu Nian has died. Your majesty,
what should we do with it?"
Yun Shang narrowed her eyes and tapped the table with her fingers. "The dead can't be investigated. I
can't dig out her body and whip it again. But the Li's... "
Yun Shang meditated for a moment and said, "Don't take any action for the time being. Ask the secret
guards to investigate the background of the Li's carefully. The more detailed the better, and send it to
me after checking."
"Let's see the Li's is really just a simple Imperial Purveyor and tell if it has anything to do with the
matter."
Qian Liu replied, "I'll tell them right now."
Yun Shang nodded and said, "Don't worry. The most important thing right now is to prepare for the
Spring Festival. There is always something wrong with the banquets. I feel dizzy every time I hear it. I
just want to have a peaceful banquet for the Spring Festival."
Qian Liu couldn't help laughing when hear it. "Don't worry, your majesty. I promise I will try my best to
ensure a perfect banquet."
"Of course I can rest assured that you will arrange it well. But I'm afraid that someone will make trouble
on purpose."
