An Eight-year-old Princess

Chapter 1379 To Sow Seeds Of Future Trouble

Yun Shang thought of what Luo Qingyan had said before, and she immediately understood, "Your

Majesty, do you mean that since someone wants to make use of this event to sow dissension between

us and the State of Youyue as well as the State of Yihai, we will just take advantage of the

opportunity?"

Luo Qingyan nodded, "Yes."

Then he turned to Yun Shang with a smile, "Who on earth is behind all this? Have your majesty got

someone suspicious in your mind?"

"Xia Houjing and the State of Yelang."

"Oh?" Luo Qingyan's smile deepened, "Why are you so sure about it, your majesty? Aren't you afraid

that this is a trap set up by the State of Youyue and the State of Yihai? "

Yun Shang thought for a moment and then replied, "It's not impossible. But I think that as long as Ling

Ziyue is not a fool, he won't do that.

Although the State of Xia is surrounded by strong enemies, it is still in the dominant position around at

present. Ling Ziyue and his companions are still in Jin City in the State of Xia. If they want to leave the

State of Xia safely, they shouldn't have done such a reckless thing.

As for Xia Houjing and the State of Yelang, both of them have been cornered to the end. Now they are

just fighting like trapped beasts. They can only be desperate and try their best to distract us, in order to

get a chance to breathe. They just want to take advantage of this opportunity to fight us back."

Luo Qingyan nodded with a smile in his eyes, "If what your majesty said is true, then what do you think

we should do next, the Empress?"

"There is still the Cao clan in the Jin City who is still trying to help Xia Houjing. The event of Dragon

Mountains is still full of suspicions, while the clan are trying to delay us, thinking that they have found

an opportunity in it.

It seems that there are many difficulties around us, but actually we don't have to solve these problems

one by one."

"Oh?" Luo Qingyan raised his eyebrows and requested, "Please tell me in detail, the Empress."

Seeing that Luo Qingyan had no idea what to do, Yun Shang couldn't help but flick his forehead, and

then went on, "We will just give them a dose of their own medicine."

"But how can we give them a dose of their own medicine?"

Yun Shang slightly raised her head and replied, "Let go of the real Xia Houjing."

"Let him go?" Luo Qingyan was surprised, "But this means to sow seeds of future trouble?"

Yun Shang snorted, "What's more, we should withdraw the troops that went deep into the State of

Yelang and only keep them defend the cities that have been captured. We won't go on attacking

further."

Luo Qingyan looked up at Yun Shang without saying anything.

Yun Shang smiled and crooked her finger at Luo Qingyan, "I know there is something that looks like

poison, but not poison..."

Yun Shang's voice trailed off. Hearing her detailed explanation, Luo Qingyan's eyes darkened. After a

while, he smiled, "How long have your majesty been thinking about this idea?"

Yun Shang sat up straight and replied frankly, "A few days ago, when I knew the purpose of the man

behind the scenes is to distract our attentions. I have been thinking about it all these days.

At last, I have got some clues. Although our opponents are trying to distract our attentions, we have

been indeed deceived by them in some ways. We just thought that their purpose may be to make us

unable to pay attention to the Cao clan, about the Dragon Mountains, and even the war at the border.

But through careful analysis, I find all these events are actually one thing as your majesty concluded

before.

Thus why do we have to tangle with these superficial matters? Why don't we just attack them directly?"

After a short pause, Yun Shang went on, "Of course, since they want to distract our attention, we can

play with them in the same way too..."

Luo Qingyan smiled, "Your majesty, this is a good idea."

Yun Shang glanced at Luo Qingyan and asked, "Have you been with Liu Wenan for too long recently?"

Liu Wenan was waiting outside the door. When he vaguely heard his name, he hurriedly poked his

head in from outside and asked, "Your Majesty, did you call me?"

Yun Shang burst into laughter, "No. I'm just talking about you to hisr majesty. I'm asking his majesty if

he has stayed with you for too long recently?"

Liu Wenan simply walked over and stood at the door, replying, "I'm his majesty's personal eunuch.

Except when the Emperor and the Empress are together, I'm always by his majesty's side."

After careful consideration, Liu Wenan asked, "Does the Empress think it's inappropriate for me to do

so?

Your Majesty, you are always wise. If you think it's inappropriate, I will follow your idea."

Yun Shang couldn't help laughing. She turned to Luo Qingyan and said, "You see."

After saying that, she waved her hand at the confused Liu Wenan and said, "I don't think it's

inappropriate. I just think that his majesty has been with you for too long recently. When I talk to him

recently, I always feel that I were talking to you.

Whenever I speak, the Empress would always praised me like 'the Empress is so brilliant, the Empress

is so smart...'

He is so good at flattering others now."

Hearing this, Liu Wenan couldn't help laughing. "It's not because his majesty and I have been together

for too long, but because the Empress is indeed so smart. Our Emperor and I just follow our heart and

praise your majesty."

"Well, well, stop." Yun Shang had just stopped laughing when she was amused by Liu Wenan and

burst into laughter again.. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

Luo Qingyan glanced at Liu Wenan and said, "You are my eunuch, not the eunuch of the Empress.

Why don't you try to flatter me all day long? Why do you try every means to flatter the Empress?"

Liu Wenan chuckled and didn't lie, "Your Majesty, you always look cold. If I try to flatter you, perhaps I

won't get any benefits, but will even be suspected by you. Your majesty will think that I can only flatter

you and do nothing...

But her majesty is different. Her majesty is always gentle, and as a women, she always likes to listen to

others' praise." With a bright smile, Liu Wenan went on, "Although his majesty is the Emperor, he is

obedient to the Empress. I'm trying to make the Empress happy. It would be great if the Empress can

put in a good word for me in front of his majesty."

Yun Shang laughed even louder.

Luo Qingyan couldn't help smiling, too, "You are such a cunning man."

Then Luo Qingyan turned to look at Yun Shang. Seeing that Yun Shang couldn't stop laughing, he said

to Liu Wenan, "For the sake of your making the Empress so happy, I won't punish you for what you

have done. I'll give you the jade carving you've always wanted later. "

Liu Wenan was even happier, "Thank you, your majesty."
