An Eight-year-old Princess

Chapter 1299 I Have High Principles

The three of them laughed and joked for a while. Seeing that the rain gradually stopped outside, Qian

Liu left.

It rained for less than an hour, and then the sun began to rise again.

In the afternoon, the people of the Imperial Household Department really brought those things here.

"Your majesty, let's take a walk in the Imperial Garden first." Qian Zhuo poked her head out and looked

at the things placed in the yard. "It will take some time to change the furniture and clean them up

carefully."

Yun Shang nodded her head and took the servants to the Imperial Garden.

When she came back, everything in the room had been well arranged.

Yun Shang sat on the cold jade couch. Her eyes lit up. "It's much cooler."

"Of course. But I'm also a little worried. It's too cold. Will it be harmful to your health? How about I put a

blanket on it? " Qian Zhuo frowned.

Yun Shang glared at her, "Put blanket on it? Then why did we bother to change the cold jade bed? "

After thinking for a while, Qian Zhuo thought it made sense. After a moment of silence, she said, "Okay,

I won't do it."

Pei Lan was putting the things on the desk aside. When she heard the conversation between the two of

them, she couldn't help smiling.

"Your majesty, do you need this map?" Pei Lan picked up a map and asked Yun Shang.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Yun Shang looked up at the map. It's the copy of the map of Dragon Mountains "Yes, I forgot to put it

away after reading it."

Pei Lan nodded, "Then I'll put it away for you."

As she spoke, Pei Lan glanced at the map and said, "This seems to be the map of my hometown.

What are you looking for, your majesty? Although I haven't been back for many years, I'm still familiar

with that place. If you want to find something, you can tell me. Maybe I know. "

Yun Shang was surprised, "Is it the map of your hometown? Where are you from? Jingcang County

Fengtai County? Or Sanyu County? "

The places on the three maps were the three counties.

Hearing this, Pei Lan shook her head and said, "No. My hometown is Anyong Village under Ganhe

County."

"Ganhe County?" Yun Shang frowned and said, "That's impossible. Are you sure it's your hometown on

the map? Bring me the map and I'll see which one you are talking about. "

Pei Lan then took the map and put it in front of Yun Shang. "This is it. It is obviously Anyong Village

where I came from. I still remember this Haitian River."

Yun Shang's eyes fell on the map. At a glance, Yun Shang recognized it. It was a map of a small place

under the jurisdiction of Fengtai County, which was next to Dragon Mountains. Yun Shang also sent

people to investigate that place.

There were mountains and forests on the map, but only a river with its name on it. It was indeed Haitian

River that Pei Lan had mentioned.

However, Yun Shang saw that Pei Lan put the map upside down...

"Are you sure this is your hometown?"

"Yes, I remember it clearly." Pei Lan pointed to the other side of the river and said, "My home is right

here. It's at the turn of the river. It's my home within a mile from the river bay to the mountain road."

Yun Shang's heart skipped a beat. She turned the map over and asked, "Shouldn't this map be placed

in this way?"

"No, it shouldn't be like that." Pei Lan turned the map around again and said, "That's it."

"More than that." Pei Lan took out the other two maps and said, "The places drawn on these two maps

are not far from my hometown."

As Pei Lan said, she put the two maps on the table. The two maps were vertical, but the words were

upside down, and one was horizontally placed under the two maps. "It should be like this. These three

maps are pieced together to make a complete map. This is the map of the two villages in our region."

Yun Shang's fingers trembled slightly, and her eyes fell on the map.

Was she heading in the wrong direction from the very beginning?

This was not three independent maps at all. These three maps were there pieces of a complete map?

So they deliberately wrote the names of the rivers and mountains on it upside down to confuse others?

"Where is your home?"

"Anyong Village under Ganhe County."

Yun Shang nodded and picked up the three map. "I'll go to the Taiji Palace."

Qian Zhuo and Pei Lan called in servants in a hurry and followed Yun Shang to the Taiji Palace.

When she walked to the door of the Taiji Palace, she heard a voice from inside. It was Luo Qingyan's

voice. "If you have a jade pendant in your hand and someone asks you for it, will you give it or not?"

Yun Shang stopped and listened to it curiously.

Who is his majesty talking to?

Why did he ask in such a tone?

Why did she ask such a question?

Soon, another voice sounded in the hall, which solved Yun Shang's doubts.

"Father, do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

Chengye's childish voice rang out in the hall.

Yun Shang couldn't help laughing. Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?

She didn't know who taught him to say so.

"What's the difference?"

"If you want to listen to the truth, then of course I won't. Why should you give my things to others? Of

course I won't give it to others. "

"Then what about the lie?"

After thinking for a while, Chengye said, "It depends on whether I like the jade pendant or not and what

does the person want the jade pendant for?"

"I'm the crown prince. The people of the State of Xia are all my people. If the jade pendant is of no use

to me, but to others, it is of great use. I'm willing to help and give it to him. "

The smile in Yun Shang's eyes widened. So, the premise was that he didn't like the jade pendant at all.

It was useless to hold it, but it was useful to others?

"What if you like the jade pendant very much? What if it is given by your mother? "

"No, no, absolutely not. How can I give something from mother to others so easily? "

"What if you don't like the jade pendant and the one who asks for it just wants to wear it for fun?"

"No way." Chengye pursed his lips and said, "He can think of a way to make me happy and let me give

the jade pendant to him, but I can't give it to him so easily."

"The grand tutor said that Principle is part of men personality, and I am a man who have high

principles."
