An Eight-year-old Princess

Chapter 1255 The Embodiment Of A Demon

In Weiyang Palace, after Yun Shang heard the secret guard's report, she couldn't help but raise her

eyebrows, "Did he really say so?"

"Yes, your majesty." The secret guard lowered his head and went on, "I heard what Steward Zhou said

to the eunuch in the Imperial Library. That eunuch seemed to be his confidant."

Yun Shang smiled playfully, "Interesting. It's really interesting."

Qian Zhuo, however, did not understand, "Then why did he tell his confidant so? Everyone in the

palace knew about Steward Wang's case. And as Steward Wang used to work in the Imperial Library, it

was normal for your majesty to ask about the situation, wasn't it? Then why did he try his best to find a

reason to cover up the real purpose of your trip? "

"Didn't you hear what he said then? He and Steward Wang had a bad time because of the relationship.

Later, Steward Wang tried his best to form a faction, which embarrassed him. When I asked him about

the servants who were close to Steward Wang, he reported without hesitation.

It can be seen that the relationship between him and Steward Wang is really bad. I said then that I

would interrogate the servants on the list one by one. He helped me cover it up, probably for the same

reason as I didn't want to ask him to the Weiyang Palace for questioning, " Yun Shang explained.

Qian Zhuo frowned, "Does he want those servants who are close to Steward Wang not to be

prepared?"

"Yes." Yun Shang leaned against the couch and went on, "If the relationship between Steward Wang

and Steward Zhou is really so subtle, Zhou Gao would prefer to get rid of those maids who had been

close to Steward Wang by me."Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Yun Shang tapped her fingers on the table and ordered, "Send someone to check whether what Zhou

Gao said is true or not."

"Yes, your majesty," the secret guard answered and left.

Qian Zhuo asked, "Then... Do you mean to arrest and interrogate all the servants on the list written by

Zhou Gao? "

Yun Shang shook her head and said, "Don't worry. Zhou Gao has tried every means to cover it up for

me. I can't let his plan go in vain. Send someone to keep an eye on these servants on the list and don't

bring them to interrogate for the time being.

I've been to the Imperial Library. Even if Zhou Gao said that way, they were suspicious of me, and they

would discuss how to deal with the situation if I really send someone to catch them.

The more flustered they are, the more exposed they will be."

Qian Zhuo nodded and left.

Yun Shang had just turned a few pages when Qian Zhuo walked in quickly from the outside, "Your

majesty, there's news from outside the palace. It's said that the unpleasant rumors before have been

slightly subsided, but..."

Yun Shang heard that there was a turning point in her words. She raised her eyebrows and asked, "But

what?"

Qian Zhuo frowned and replied hesitantly, "But there are more rumors. It seems that these rumors were

spread by his majesty."

Yun Shang didn't pay much attention to it when she first heard it from Qian Zhuo.

However, she was interested when she heard that the gossip was spread from Luo Qingyan. She sat

up a little, raised her eyebrows and asked with a smile, "Come on, tell me what kind of gossips they

are."

"It's not something unpleasant, but it's a little ridiculous." Qian Zhuo looked a little confused, "But the

key point was shifted. The story had changed from what happened to your majesty during your

disappearance from the palace to how you escaped safely and returned to the palace from the the

Dangnan Mountain...

Some people said that your majesty was saved by some monsters in the mountain. Some said that

your majesty was protected by Buddha. Moreover, some said when you were eight years old, you

successfully predicted the rain and was conferred the title of Princess Hui Guo by Emperor Ning. They

were sure that you were the reincarnation of the Ninth Heaven fairy and that you had the ability to

predict the future. Otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to go smoothly all the way from the

daughter of a concubine in the cold palace to where you are today... "

Hearing all these, Yun Shang almost choked on her own saliva.

She remembered that when she was eight years old, she did successfully predict the rain. It was the

time of Hua Jing's Coming-of-age Ceremony. At that time, she just returned from her transmigration.

She remembered that in her previous life, because of the long drought in the State of Ning, her father

had been unable to ask for rain for several times. As a result, it suddenly rained at Hua Jing's Coming-

of-age Ceremony, which was said by the Empress that Hua Jing was a blessed person, and was

wantonly praised by the Emperor.

So she pretended to ask for rain and told that Master Wu Na had predicted that there would be rain at

Hua Jing's Coming-of-age Ceremony. As expected, it rained on the day of the ceremony. Therefore,

she stole Hua Jing's limelight and was conferred the title of Princess Hui Guo.

However, although there was indeed such a thing, the credit for asking for rain had nothing to do with

her actually.

"And they also found countless evidences to prove why your majesty, the daughter of a concubine of

the cold palace, was chosen by Master Wu Na and sent to a temple to cultivate for seven years. It was

also said that you were just a spoiled princess. If it was not for this reason, how could you suddenly

become so powerful? You knew all kinds of military arrays even though you had never gone to the

battlefield. You had led the troops of the State of Ning to win countless battles.

Though you had been on the verge of danger for several times, you had often escaped from it.

And... In fact, your majesty was said to be an enbodiment of demo. On that day when you were in the

Dangnan Mountain, you had to use your demonic power to escape. However, as it was too sudden, in

order to protect the people around as much as possible, you had used up her demonic power and

transformed into the original form. In order not to be discovered by others, you had to disappear for a

few days and cultivate in seclusion again until you could stabilize your shape as a human being. "

“……”

Yun Shang rubbed her forehead and said, "Great! I didn't know I have so many identities."

"I have been serving your majesty all the time, and... I didn't know, either. "

Yun Shang couldn't help but feel a little funny, "How can people outside believe such ridiculous

gossips?"

Qian Zhuo looked more confused and said, "Yes, I also think it's ridiculous. But according to the news

outside the palace, it's probably because the evidence is too convincing. It seems that many people

really believe these rumors. "

“……”

Yun Shang rubbed her forehead again and said, "Well, in the future, no one will think that I'm raped.

They will only think that I'm the embodiment of a demon, the reincarnation of a demon spirit, which can

bewitch people and bring chaos to the state.

Maybe there will be some people who firmly say that the reason why his majesty is willing to not accept

concubines to dote on me is that I have used the witchcraft on his majesty..."

Hearing this, Qian Zhuo widened her eyes and asked, "How do you know, your majesty?"
