Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 542

Yun Shang nodded her head slightly, "they are all very good names. Since Qian Yin has said that you have been carefully chosen, I also believe her taste. Please follow me."

The two girls bowed to her with joy in their eyes. Yun Shang chuckled and stood up, "have you asked the butler to prepare the carriage for me?"

Qian Yin answered, "yes."

Yun Shang nodded, took Qian Liu and Qian Zhuo out of the door, and went to the Imperial Palace in a carriage.

At right time, when Yun Shang arrived at the gate, she saw Luo Qingyan walking toward the gate, followed by seventh Prince and Liu Yinfeng. Yun Shang stopped and smiled at Luo Qingyan. Luo Qingyan's eyes lit up when he saw her. He quickly walked to Yun Shang and looked her up and down. "Why are you dressed like this? Are you going to the palace? Where are you going? The Xiang Zhu Palace?"

Yun Shang smiled. "His Highness has asked me so many questions at one time. Where should I answer them?"

Then she bowed to the seventh Prince and Liu Yinfeng, "Your Highness, Mister Liu."

"Oh, it's sister-in-law." The seventh prince chuckled, "then I will wait for brother outside the palace with Yinfeng." Then he made an obeisance to Yun Shang and headed for the palace gate. Liu Yinfeng glanced at Yun Shang and paused. Then he quickly followed the seventh prince and left.

"Where are you going at this hour?" Yun Shang asked with a smile.

Luo Qingyan held Yun Shang's hand and said gently, "the beauty-choosing event will be held in a month. I'm in charge of it. The seventh prince, Liu Yinfeng and I are going to the Ministry of rites to check if everything is ready. The list will be presented to his majesty tomorrow."

Yun Shang nodded her head, 'Til have a chat with the ladies at the Xiang Zhu Palace. Go ahead with your work. Don't keep them waiting."

Luo Qingyan nodded slightly and put his arm around Yun Shang's shoulder before quickly letting go of her. Then he walked away from Yun Shang and headed for the palace gate.

Yun Shang saw him walk to the gate of the palace and then turn back to the Xiang Zhu Palace. Ning Qian had never had the habit of taking a nap in the afternoon. She was making tea in the hall. She seemed to be practicing the skills of making tea. Several teabowls were placed beside her, each of which was filled with tea.

"Here you are." Ning Qian saw Yun Shang in and hurriedly put down the teapot in her hand. She stood up and smiled at the servants to bring a chair for Yun Shang. After Yun Shang took her seat, Ning Qian looked her up and down again, and said with a smile, "you look fabulous today. I guess your dress and jewelries must be made by the Qianshui pavilion?"

Yun Shang said with a smile, "you can see at a glance what your people have made. I've heard that it has been very lively recently. Why are you here alone?"

Yun Shang glanced at all the ladies in the room. She had read the portrait before, and thus she was able to match every concubine of the emperor. All of them were under the emperor's power, but it was a good deal.

"Lady Rui, you have put on a stunning makeup." The person who spoke was Lady Cao. Her father was a sixth grade officer, so she was looked down upon by many people in the palace. However, she was a beauty, not the type that would be shocked at the first glance, but she was clear about everything and was also a calm person, not making trouble.

Another lady heard her words and said, "If I guessed right, Lady Rui's clothes and jewelry today have helped a lot with her beauty. I don't know where she bought them."

Yun Shang lifted her eyes to look at Ning Qian, and she smiled at her too. She said faintly, "it's bought at a store in the city, called the Qianshui Pavilion. I have visited it once, and I found I really like it. Then I ordered them to deliver some new jewelries to the Prince Rui's mansion every few days."
