An Eight-year-old Princess

Chapter 1270 I Can't Figure It Out

The maid in blue thought for a while, but she shook her head in confusion. "I... I really don't remember.

It's been too long. "

"She met her." A maid in green said.

"Oh?" Yun Shang looked at the maid and asked, "Do you remember?"

"It occurred to me that Lady Li had met Steward Wang from the Imperial Library the day when she was

wearing the dress, and it was not in the morning when she met other stewards."

"Then when was it?"

The maid in green answered in a low voice, "It should be in the afternoon. When her highness was

about to take a nap after taking off her outer clothes, Steward Wang came, saying that she had found a

book that her highness asked for before."

"I was going to take the book in and send her away. But Lady Li heard the voice of Steward Wang. She

ordered me to invite Steward Wang and asked me to leave. The two of them talked for about a quarter

of an hour before Steward Wang left. "

Yun Shang tugged at the embroidered handkerchief in her hand and asked, "Do you know which book

it is?"

"I don't know."

Yun Shang nodded and waved the two away.

Maybe the colors Wang Wenxiang said didn't mean that there were something hidden in Lady Li's

clothes. But the colors of the clothes Lady Li was wearing when she met Wang Wenxiang.

After all, the question she asked Wang Wenxiang yesterday was if she still remembered Lady Li.

Yun Shang frowned, depressed.

She had thought that she could find something, but it turned out that she didn't find anything.

Hua'er took a look at Yun Shang and asked in a low voice, "Your majesty, do you still want to check the

clothes inside?"

"No."

Yun Shang shook her head and said, "Let's go back."

Along the way, Yun Shang was thinking about it. She had found out the secret of the four colors.

But what did the next sentence mean? Spring and autumn... Short, long... What did she mean? Did it

also have something to do with Lady Li?

In spring? In autumn? What did short and long mean?

In the end, she asked about the maid who had escaped from the Palace after killing Lady Li. Wang

Wenxiang talked something like a chant. What did that mean?

Yun Shang rubbed her forehead and felt a splitting headache.

She didn't sleep well last night because of the rain. In addition, all kinds of thoughts were intertwined

back and forth in her mind, making her mind messy.

Seeing Yun Shang rubbing her forehead, Pei Lan said in a low voice, "Your majesty, you'd better have

a rest first. There are very few clues about this case, and I'm afraid you won't be able to figure it out in

a short time. It's useless to force yourself to think about it. You'll be more efficient after having a good

rest. "

Yun Shang felt dizzy. She nodded and lay down on the bed.

But she couldn't fall asleep. Maybe it was because she was thinking something in her mind, or just

because the weather was too hot.

Pei Lan fetched a thin quilt and wanted to cover Yun Shang. Yun Shang shook her head and said, "It's

hot."

"Your majesty, put the quilt on your belly and I fan you." Pei Lan said in a low voice, "There are still ice

pots in the room. Don't let your stomach get cold."

Yun Shang sighed and nodded.

But there were only two ice pots in the big hall as Luo Qingyan ordered.

It was still very hot.

With the noise of cicadas outside, Yun Shang couldn't calm down. She couldn't think about the matter

of Wang Wenxiang any more. Yun Shang stared at the phoenix pattern on the bed tent for a while, and

her eyes were tired. She closed her eyes and fell asleep soon.

When she opened her eyes again, it was already dark outside.

Yun Shang saw the dim light coming in through the window and suddenly sat up.

"Guards!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the light in the room was lit up.

Yun Shang looked at the light and saw Luo Qingyan sitting at the table.

"Are you awake?"

Yun Shang pressed her lips and asked, "What time is it now? Why didn't anyone wake me up? How

long have your majesty been here? Why didn't you light it up? Why are you sitting there in darkness? "

Luo Qingyan smiled, "I asked them not to call you. I've heard about the matter of Wang Wenxiang.

You've been working for a long time. You must be tired. It's better to sleep more. I didn't do anything. I

was just thinking something. "

It was not until then that Yun Shang saw Luo Qingyan holding a piece of paper in his hand. Yun Shang

seemed to be familiar with that piece of paper...

Yun Shang thought for a while and realized that the paper must be the conversation she had with Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Wenxiang yesterday.

Luo Qingyan also noticed Yun Shang's gaze. He smiled and said, "When I came here, I saw it on the

table, so I picked it up and had a look. I know all the words on it, but I really don't know the meaning."

"This is..." Yun Shang paused and continued, "This is the conversation between me and Wang

Wenxiang yesterday. Wang Wenxiang is crazy. She talked in a mysterious way. It's normal that your

majesty can't understand. "

Luo Qingyan walked to the bed and sat down.

"I heard that you went to the Xiangyi Palace today? You've been busy in the Xiangyi Palace for more

than half a day, and you've also summoned the maids who had served Lady Li. Have you found

anything? "

Yun Shang raised her hand to tidy up her drooping hair, and then her hand fell on the paper. She

pointed at a few lines of paper and said, "Here, Wang Wenxiang said this when she looked at the three

pieces of paper on the table in the hall. At that time, I thought she was crazy, just talking nonsense with

me. But today, I thought about it carefully and found that Wang Wenxiang probably meant that there

were three maps of Dragon Mountains in total. The one I found in Xiangyi Palace is just one of the

three... "

Yun Shang explained the other words on the paper one by one.

"But I can't figure out the last two."

"I don't think it's a good idea."

Luo Qingyan lowered his head and looked at the words that Yun Shang couldn't figure out. He was

silent for a moment. "Spring and autumn, short and long?"

"Yes." Yun Shang nodded and frowned.

Luo Qingyan rubbed the paper with his finger and said, "If someone tells me these words, the first thing

I would think of would be... Book title. "

"Book title?"
