Chapter 453: Shangyuan Chapter (1)

Yun Weishan had been in the palace for such a long time but had not found any useful information. He also had a hard time inside the palace because Gong Ziyu was not recognized by the masters of the Jiao Palace and Zheng Palace.

That day, when Yun Weishan was out for a walk, he ran into Shangguan Qian, who was carrying a lunch box. "Sister Shangguan, where are you going in such a hurry?"

Shangguan Qian looked at Yun Weishan who called her, and smiled with her back to her. The little bug had taken the bait. Shangguan Qian put away her expression and turned to look at Yun Weishan, "It's Sister Yun! I cooked a bowl of snow swallow soup for Master Jiao, and I'm going to serve it to Master Jiao and Master Zheng while it's still hot to nourish their bodies."

Yun Weishan looked at the food box that Shangguan Qian was carrying and saw that there were indeed two bowls of snow swallow soup and a plate of crab roe biluo. "Sister Shangguan, you have worked so hard. But I have always heard rumors about Mr. Jiao in my boudoir. I don't know whether they are true or not. I hope Sister Shangguan can answer some questions for me."

Shangguan Qian stretched out a hand and covered her mouth with her sleeve, smiling, "Sister Yun, what are you talking about? Master Jiao is such a great man, how could he allow a weak and sick girl like me to pry into his affairs?"

Shangguan Qian coughed a few times while speaking, and his face turned a little pale, which made Yun Weishan stunned.

"Alas, my body is so weak. It's not even a short distance from the kitchen, but I couldn't hold on any longer. I had to see Sister Yun helping me up and sending me back to the Corner Palace."

Shangguan Qian weakly took Yun Weishan's hand and motioned to the maid behind her to take the food box.

Yun Weishan was worried about not being able to find any useful clues, so had Shangguan Qian already found an excuse for her? Yun Weishan was naturally very happy to send Shangguan Qian back to Jiaogong, but she changed her mind and thought about the relationship between Gong Ziyu and the brothers Gong Shangjiao and Gong Yuanzheng. As Gong Ziyu's future wife, she was so openly talking and laughing with Jiaogong's future wife. Gong Shangjiao, who was meticulous, might have seen something.

Yun Weishan just opened her mouth to refuse, but she was shocked by the sight of Shangguan Qian holding her chest and breathing heavily. She didn't expect that Shangguan Qian was such a woman who could act out any situation!

"Sister Shangguan! What's wrong with you? Why do you suddenly feel unwell?" Yun Weishan took the opportunity to support Shangguan Qian.

Shangguan Qian took a long time to calm down. "It's okay, Sister Yun. This is just an old problem. Let's go to the pavilion over there and rest for a while. I'll be fine once I recover."

Shangguan Qian pointed to a waterside pavilion not far away, then turned around and instructed the maid who followed behind him, "Xiu Lu, take this snow swallow soup and this crab roe biluo to Jiao Palace to Master Jiao and Master Zheng first. I will recover in a while, and Sister Yun will take me back to Jiao Palace."

Xiu Lu, who was carrying the food box, frowned and glanced at Yun Weishan, then bowed, "Miss Yun, please take good care of my young lady. I will take my leave now."

Shangguan Qian and Yun Weishan looked at Xiu Lu's figure disappearing in the corridor, and immediately let go of her hands. The two of them walked towards the water pavilion with light steps.

"Have you thought about what to prepare this time?" Yun Weishan started asking Shangguan Qian as soon as he sat down.

Shangguan Qian played with the things on the stone table in the waterside pavilion. "Why are you panicking? Even if I'm ready, I still have to be able to get out, right? Besides, what have you prepared?"

Yun Weishan looked at Shangguan Qian who was nonchalant and had doubts in his heart. "I heard in Yu Palace that a new group of people moved into Zheng Palace recently. They seem to be related to Gong Yuanzheng. Isn't this enough information for you to send out?"

Shangguan Qian looked at Yun Weishan and sneered, "Sister Yun, you really love to joke. My relationship with that Master Zheng is like fire and water. How could I get any information from him? Besides, the Zheng Palace is like an iron channel. All information can only go in but not out. How can sister have the ability to get any information from the Zheng Palace?"

Yun Weishan looked at Shangguan Qian with a cold face, as if trying to read something from her face that was used to acting, "How can there be someone who can enter the Zheng Palace but not leave?"

Shangguan Qian pretended to be surprised and looked at Yun Weishan, "Sister Yun, don't you know? Master Zheng has a cousin in Tiandu, with a distinguished family background, and I heard that he is an official, so he has a great background.

Later, when their family came to recognize their relatives, they directly sent people to take over the entire Zheng Palace, replacing everything from inside to outside.

Not only was the person replaced, but all the expenses incurred by the Zheng Palace were also borne by that side.

Although the Zheng Palace is still in the palace gate, it is actually independent of the palace gate. If the masters, servants and guards in the palace gate have a headache or fever and want to see a doctor, they have to pay. "

Yun Weishan obtained very little information about Gong Yuanzheng. After entering the palace, she stayed in Yu Palace. If Madam Wu Ji didn't look for her, she would usually stay in her room.

"Don't you want to enter the palace?"

Shangguan Qian suddenly chuckled, "Sister Yun, you don't really think that I broke my leg because I was careless while taking a walk last time!"

"Are the guards of Zheng Palace so skilled in martial arts? Did they break your legs? But this shouldn't be the case! If the guards of Zheng Palace found you, would Gong Yuanzheng let you go?"

Yun Weishan glanced at Shangguan Qian's legs.

Shangguan Qian touched her own legs uncomfortably, "It was Gong Shangjiao who did it himself, because I offended his heart and his eyes. He didn't sleep in the middle of the night and ran to my room to warn me not to have any ideas about his brother."

Yun Weishan didn't expect Shangguan Qian's life in Jiaogong to be so embarrassing. She stretched out her hand and put it on Shangguan Qian's hand, "Sister Shangguan, it's really hard for you!"

Yun Weishan changed the subject and said, "But don't forget that we still have a mission. If we fail to complete the mission, we will all die!" After Yun Weishan leaned close to Shangguan Qian's ear and spoke, he picked up a dead leaf in his hand and threw it on the ground.

"Look at me. I've been chatting for so long that I actually forgot that Sister Shangguan was not feeling well. What if she got caught a cold?"

Shangguan Qian coughed a few times to cover up, "Don't blame Sister Yun, this is also my fault. I have had this problem of cold body and weak body since I was young. I usually stay in my boudoir and don't go out. I only go out with my family on holidays to have fun."

Shangguan Qian suddenly grabbed Yun Weishan's hand and said, "Speaking of which, the Lantern Festival will be in two days. I wonder if Sister Yun has any plans?"

Yun Weishan rolled his eyes, "I don't know what Master Zhiren thinks. How about I send you back to Jiao Palace and then go back to Yu Palace to ask if Master Zhiren can take me out to enjoy the Lantern Festival outside the palace gate?"

Shangguan Qian quietly stuffed a folded piece of paper from her sleeve into Yun Weishan's sleeve, "Sister Yun is lucky to be favored by a soft-hearted man like Master Yu. As for me, I'm afraid I will never be able to enter Master Jiao's heart in this lifetime~"

Shangguan Qian and Yun were supported by Shan and walked towards Jiaogong.
