An Eight-year-old Princess

Chapter 1354 The Real Face

Hearing Qian Zhuo's words, Yun Shang turned to her, seemingly thinking about something.

"What's the matter?" Seeing Yun Shang looking at her like this, Qian Zhuo felt a little uneasy, "What's

the matter, your majesty? Did I say anything wrong? "

Yun Shang shook her head and replied, "No, it's true. This piece of cloth is indeed from Chengye's

clothes. But you don't serve him daily. Why did you recognize it? "

"I saw the Crown Prince yesterday. Isn't this the one he wore yesterday?"

Yes, indeed. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

Yun Shang held the cloth in her hand and gently stroked it. 'Qian Zhuo saw Chengye yesterday, so she

remembered that he was wearing this robe. The servants around him were looking after him every day.

Didn't they notice anything?'

Thinking of these, Yun Shang raised her eyes and ordered Qian Zhuo, "Call all the servants around

Chengye here. I have something to ask them."

Judging from Yun Shang's tone, Qian Zhuo knew that something must have happened. But Yun Shang

looked too calm, so she couldn't figure out anything. She lowered her head and replied, "Yes, I'll go

right now."

After a while, Qian Zhuo took all of them here.

Yun Shang glanced at them. They were all chosen by her and Luo Qingyan after very careful selection.

Logically speaking, there should be nothing wrong.

However, there was no absolute certainty, and it was difficult to guarantee that no one would betray in

the middle of the process.

Standing in front of Yun Shang, they looked a little nervous.

Yun Shang knocked on the table with her fingers and then said, "The Crown Prince is sick. Although he

looks normal and just caught a cold and have a fever, in fact, it's not that simple. You all serve the

Crown Prince, and you are most familiar with him. Have you noticed anything wrong with him in the

past two days? "

Yun Shang didn't let them answer immediately, and she ordered, "Put them in different rooms and let

them think about it."

"Yes, your majesty."

After they were taken away, Qian Zhuo turned to Yun Shang and asked, "Your majesty, is there

anything wrong with the Crown Prince' illness?"

"Yes." Yun Shang nodded and raised her hand to rub her forehead. She didn't explain too much, "It's a

serious matter and it's not appropriate to make it public. Just now, those people were locked up in the

back hall of Weiyang Palace. Just announce that Chengye will stay in Weiyang Palace for a period of

time to recuperate, and they are accompanying him."

"Okay."

After Qian Zhuo left, Yun Shang turned to Luo Qingyan, "I think I should go back to Weiyang Palace."

"What?" Luo Qingyan had been watching Yun Shang's arrangement. Hearing Yun Shang's words, he

sat up a little and asked, "What's the matter? Why do you want to go back? "

Yun Shang pursed her lips and said, "Since the instigator has already spread out this matter, why don't

I just take off the human skin mask on the fake Chengye's face and see what he looks like? Then I'll

ask the secret guards to follow the child's original appearance to check. It may be easier."

After a moment's silence, Luo Qingyan nodded and said, "Okay."

Then he stood up and said, "I'll go with you."

Yun Shang compressed her lips and said yes. They two walked out of the Taiji Palace together.

When they arrived at Weiyang Palace, it was already dark. Lights were on inside and outside the

palace.

Yun Shang stood in the yard and looked at the bedroom. It was dark there.

"The Crown Prince just took medicine and fell asleep a quarter of an hour ago," Pei Lan followed Yun

Shang's eyesight and explained in a low voice.

Yun Shang nodded and followed Luo Qingyan into the inner hall.

In the bedroom, there was only a glaze lamp on the table. Yun Shang didn't look at the bed. Instead,

she walked to the bookshelf, took out a wooden box from it, and opened it.

As soon as the box was opened, a smell of medicine filled the air.

Yun Shang's fingers stroked the various bottles in a row, and took out two bottles. Then she picked up

an embroidered handkerchief, and poured some water like things from one of the bottles onto the

handkerchief.

Then Yun Shang walked to the bedside with the handkerchief and gently covered it on the child's nose.

A moment later, Yun Shang removed the handkerchief and threw it aside.

Then he found a brocade handkerchief and poured something out of another bottle.

Yun Shang carefully wiped the child's face with the handkerchief stained with medicine. After two times,

there were faint edges curling up.

"It's a disguise technique. The human skin in the mask is very real,"

as Yun Shang spoke, she gently took off the mask.

The human skin mask was taken off, revealing a young and tender face.

Perhaps it was because it was too hot in summer and the child's face had been covered in the air tight

human skin mask for some time, his original face had faintly flushed and some parts of his skin had

been peeled off.

Yun Shang stood up, walked to her jewelry box, took a bottle of ointment and applied it on the child's

face.

Then he watched the child's face carefully.

Luo Qingyan had already taken a writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone. He glanced at the child and

quickly drew the child's face on the paper.

Then he summoned his secret guards and handed them the portrait.

"Investigate it."

Luo Qingyan ordered, but his eyes were still fixed on the child's face.

Yun Shang turned around and saw Luo Qingyan intent eyesight.

"What's wrong?" Yun Shang asked softly.

"I always feel that this child's appearance is somewhat familiar.

Quite familiar?" Yun Shang frowned, "Have we met him before?"

"It shouldn't be. I have a good memory. If I have seen him, I should have remembered him. But

although I feel a little familiar with him, I really can't remember that I have seen him before."

Luo Qingyan thought for a moment and said, "Maybe we know the child's parents. Some part of the

child's face follows his parents, so I feel that it looks familiar."

"But who is it?"

Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan looked at each other, confused.

"There are countless people we have seen. It's like looking for a needle in a haystack to recall a person

with such a characteristic."

Yun Shang pursed her lips and said, "Well, it's better to let the secret guards check it out."

Liu Wenan's voice came from outside. Yun Shang said, "Your Majesty, if you have something important

to deal with, you'd better deal with it first. The servants around Chengye are still under questioning. I'll

be there soon."

Seeing that Yun Shang had completely calmed down, Luo Qingyan nodded and said, "Okay."

As soon as Luo Qingyan left, Qian Zhuo walked in quickly,"Your majesty, the confessions of the

servants around the Crown Prince are here."
