An Eight-year-old Princess

Chapter 260 The Quick Report (Part One)

However, Yun Shang didn't expect that Uncle Liu sent a message to her early the next morning, saying

that Liu Yinfeng would invite her to the main hall for meal today. Yun Shang didn't know what Liu

Yinfeng was thinking, so she followed him.

The main hall was next to the room where Liu Yinfeng lived. When Yun Shang went there with Qian

Yin, Liu Yinfeng was already waiting at the table. There were simply six dishes on the table, which

could not be described as a feast. Without saying a word, Yun Shang went straight to the opposite side

of Liu Yinfeng and sat down. Liu Yinfeng picked up the chopsticks first and started to eat.

Yun Shang didn't know what he was thinking, so she didn't bother to guess. Instead, she finished her

breakfast quietly.

After Yun Shang put down the bowl and chopsticks, Liu Yinfeng said, "I heard from uncle Liu that you

have finished the books I sent the day before yesterday."

Yun Shang nodded, "I've read it all. They are ordinary books, and I have read some of them before.

The journey and miscellaneous notes were different from what I read before. The title of the diary was

the glory of the State of Xia I had never been in contact with, which looked interesting. You had written

the notes on the pages, right? You had read carefully and had detailed notes on the book. But I couldn't

concentrate on my study, so I go through it very fast. "

Liu Yinfeng meditated for a moment and said, "in that case, I will ask Uncle Liu to send you some more

books. I guess you also like the the Four Arts, but you don't have a Guqin in your room. I'll ask Uncle

Liu to buy you one later."

"What?" Yun Shang was surprised with her mouth wide open. She said awkwardly, "No need. How long

are you going to keep me here? But my old mother who is sick is still home waiting for me... "

Yun Shang looked at Liu Yinfeng with a hint of plea in her eyes. But Liu Yinfeng pretended not to see

her and stood up. "When it's time for you to leave, I'll let you go. You can rest assured to stay here. I'll

have someone to take care of your mother." Then he walked outside. After a pause, he continued,

"Well, you can come here and have meals with me from now on." Then he stepped out of the main hall.

Yun Shang sighed and stood up. Liu Yinfeng was this polite to her, so he didn't recognize her true

identity. What was his purpose by holding her here?

Yun Shang went back to her room and thought, Liu Yinfeng was the military counsellor of the State of

Xia. If Xia's army started to attack, Liu Yinfeng would certainly go with them. Since Liu Yinfeng was still

here, it meant that Xia's army had no action yet.

Soon, Uncle Liu brought pen, ink, paper and inkstone. The Guqin looked extraordinary and excellent.

Yun Shang became more interested in it. She went to the table and played with it with a better voice.

Since she was bored, she played a song called Courting a Phoenix. In the middle of the performance,

Yun Shang suddenly recalled that she and Prince Jing had played this music together. A smile

appeared on her face. When would she see Prince Jing next time? Yun Shang wondered what was

going on with Prince Jing.

In accordance with the Emperor's order, Prince Jing went to capture Li Jingyan and Xia Houjing. Both

of them were as cunning as foxes, and it would be difficult for him to succeed.

At that moment, the room was a little dark. As she raised her head, he saw Liu Yinfeng standing at the

door, and the sound of her Guqin was disturbed. Yun Shang hurriedly pressed the strings. A few

buzzing sounds were heard before it became quiet.

"What brings you here?" Yun Shang looked up and asked in confusion.

Liu Yinfeng seemed to be lost in thought. After a while, he asked, "I heard the song you played just

now. Is it Courting a Phoenix?"

Yun Shang flushed. "I didn't know. I was just playing randomly. It turns out to be Courting a Phoenix."

"Mister Xiao, are you missing your lover?" Liu Yinfeng said lightly, but there was inexplicable chill in his

eyes.

Yun Shang's face changed. A bitter smile emerged on her lips. "I'm flattered, brother. I don't have a

lover. I don't think I deserve someone I love in my whole life... " Yun Shang lowered her head and

played the Guqin.

"Ahem!" Qian Yin was choked by the water and coughed for a long time. Yun Shang turned to Qian Yin.

Qian Yin hurriedly waved her hand. It took a while for Qian Yin to come to herself and said, "You're sad

for nothing again. What are you talking about? You're such a good man. You will definitely find

someone you cherish." Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

The threat in Yun Shang's eyes faded away a little. Luckily she was smart enough. She would surely be

killed if the plan was disrupted.

Liu Yinfeng stared at Yun Shang for a while and said, "You have a pretty face, even the most beautiful.

Why do you say that?"

Yun Shang was shocked by his praise. She waved her hand and said, "I'm flattered, brother. In the

State of Ning, Prince Jing is the most handsome. By the way, it's said that Prince Jing's friend Mr.

Wang, who is known as Prince Jing's male confidant, is also very charming. I'm even less handsome

compared to these two people... "

"Oh. Really?" Liu Yinfeng took a look at Yun Shang, turned around and left.

Qian Yin patted her chest and said, "He is like a ghost. I was freaked out when I saw him standing at

the door." She looked at Yun Shang for several times and opened her mouth. But she just sighed.

Yun Shang paid no attention to her. Qian Yin was silent for a long time. Then she muttered to herself,

"Poor prince..."

Yun Shang's eyes could not help twitching. It took her a lot of effort to suppress her impulse to beat Qin

Yi to death. She thought to herself, next time if she would come out again, she would definitely not be

allowed to follow her. Next time, she must learn her lesson and bring Qin Yi with her.

They had lunch and dinner together in the main hall. But he seemed to be so busy with the affairs in

the army that he ate in a hurry. Often he got off the table and went into the study before Yun Shang had

half bowl.

Yun Shang felt annoyed. She didn't know anything about the State of Xia's army at all even if she was

at the same yard with Liu Yinfeng.

At night, a guard reported that Prince Jing had won a battle five days ago. According to the guard,

Prince Jing had rounded the gate with thirty thousand soldiers and entered the Yuan River from behind.

The enemies kept on defending against them. But they didn't expect that Prince Jing had so many

soldiers of good water.

After Prince Jing entered the city, he rounded up all the people and stood in front of them. He

surrounded the enemies' two sides, forcing the Xia's army to have no way to go. However, there were

only twenty thousand soldiers in the co general's hands. With all their might, thousands of soldiers still

guarded Xia Houjing and Li Jingyan to break the siege and flee north.

Yun Shang was shocked by the secret guard's words, as she felt unbelievable that the prince had won

the war in just a month. Although Xia Houjing and Li Jingyan hadn't been caught yet, they couldn't pose

a threat to the Ning soldiers more than ten thousand.
