An Eight-year-old Princess

Chapter 1307 Visit

Luo Qingyan was stunned. "Know yourself, know your enemy? A thousand battles, a thousand

victories? "

Yun Shang certainly knew what he meant. She smiled and said, "The royal members of the the State of

Youyue and the State of Yihai followed the trade teams to our country for no reason? Do your majesty

think they are good at acting or that I am stupid? "

Luo Qingyan lowered her eyes and chuckled, "If my wife is stupid, then there will probably be no smart

person in the world."

Yun Shang ignored his flattery. She frowned and said, "I don't believe they have no ambition. However,

it was still uncertain what their ambitions were. But I think there are here to test our strength and see if

there is a possibility to win us and make us surrender. "

"Now that they have taken action first, we can't fall too behind,"

Luo Qingyan nodded, but sighed, "There are many dangers along the way. We don't know what's going

on there..."

"Are you afraid, your majesty?" Yun Shang looked up at Luo Qingyan.

Hearing Yun Shang's question, Luo Qingyan didn't know whether to cry or to laugh. "I'm afraid? Why

should I be afraid? "

"Right." Yun Shang nodded, "In my eyes, your majesty has always been brave and fearless. Since you

are fearless, why do you hesitate? "

Luo Qingyan looked at Yun Shang with a smile, but said nothing.

Yun Shang knew what Luo Qingyan was worried about. She walked back and forth in the hall and said,

"Let's just send a trade team there and plant in some secret guards and spies who are good at prying

into information."

"Then we can find a way to keep the envoys from the two countries in Jin City for a few more days, and

it's better for them to stay for a year or so."

Luo Qingyan raised her eyebrows, "Your majesty want to keep them as hostage?"

Yun Shang didn't deny it. She just smiled and said, "They came here by themselves. Why don't I use

them?"

"They came to the Jin City to probe into our background. Maybe they were trying to bribe the officials in

the court. Let's keep them here and wait for our trade team to come back. We will make a plan

according to the news they bring back. We can make them hostage when appropriate. "

"There is nothing wrong with using each other and scheming against each other."

Luo Qingyan nodded with a smile in his eyes, "It's indeed not wrong. Your majesty is smart. I admire

you."

Yun Shang didn't want to talk to him. She turned around and picked up the pamphlets, reading them

carelessly. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

She wanted to do something on the things she would give to those envoys.

What to do and how to make those envoys fall into the trap must be carefully planned.

Yun Shang's eyes fell on the pamphlets. It was not difficult for trap them. Everyone loved beautiful

things. As long as the gift was good enough, they would be attracted.

Especially there were female members among them.

Unlike men, women were more likely to be moved by beautiful things.

Yun Shang knocked on the table with her fingers. She could put some poison that could only took effect

when combining with other things.

She would put some on the gifts she gave to the envoys.

After the people she sent to investigate in the two countries came back, she would decide whether to

put the thing that could make the poison take effect.

Yun Shang made up her mind. She took a brush, dipped it in ink, and drew on the pamphlet.

After a long time, she closed the book and handed it to a servant, "Take out everything I've circled and

put them in a box carefully."

"Yes."

After saying that, Yun Shang took another piece of paper and wrote down the names of several herbs.

"Go to the Imperial Hospital and fetch these herbs for me."

Qian Zhuo nodded and left with the note.

Luo Qingyan turned around again, "Herbs? Are you sick? "

Yun Shang shook her head, "No, I'm not sick."

Seeing Yun Shang's expression, Luo Qingyan thought that Yun Shang asked Qian Zhuo to prepare

gifts for the envoys. Luo Qingyan guessed, "Do you want to tamper with those things?"

"But will they be fooled?"

Yun Shang didn't answer his question directly. She just smiled and said, "Your Majesty, just wait and

see. Let's see if they will be fooled or not."

Qian Zhuo soon brought the herbs back. Yun Shang asked the servants to boil them with water, and

then soaked the silk and embroidery cloth in the water for more than half a day. Then she took them

out and dried them in the sun, and put them away properly.

In less than two days, when Yun Shang was dealing with the imperial household affairs in the Weiyang

Palace palace, the servants of the Taiji Palace came in a hurry. "Your Majesty, the envoys of the State

of Youyue and the State of Yihai have come to the palace. Master Liu said that they might bring their

female family members to visit your majesty later and let me report to you."

Yun Shang said yes, put the pamphlet in her hand aside and stood up.

"Go and get my phoenix robe."

Hua'er blinked her eyes and asked, "Which one do you want to wear, your majesty?"

Yun Shang smiled, "The most beautiful one with the most complicated and exquisite patterns."

Hua'er's eyes lit up and she answered in a hurry.

"Most of your phoenix robes are beautiful, but you don't like complicated things, so you seldom wear

them. In fact, I think you are the most beautiful in the phoenix robe. "

Yun Shang couldn't help laughing and asked the servants to change her clothes.

Yun Shang sat down in front of the bronze mirror and said, "Make a flying bun."

After the servant helped her comb her hair, she opened the dresser and looked for it carefully for a

while. Then she took out a pair of gold phoenix pearl hairpin and a pair of gold earlobes.

The servants put these things on Yun Shang and carefully put a very beautiful makeup for her.

Pei Lan understood what Yun Shang was thinking. She raised the bronze mirror in front of Yun Shang

and said with a smile, "Your majesty, you look so beautiful. When those envoys see you, they will

definitely be shocked."

Yun Shang chuckled, "You are getting more and more eloquent recently."

As soon as she finished speaking, footsteps came from outside. "Your Majesty, the envoys of the State

of Youyue and the State of Yiai have arrived."

Yun Shang nodded and turned to Pei Lan, "Go out and lead them to the main hall first. Ask someone to

serve them the best tea in our palace."

"Yes."
