Yun Chang frowned: "It's really strange."
Qian Liu also nodded: "These things are nothing more than ordinary things. A new storyteller has been replaced in a teahouse or restaurant, a juggling troupe has appeared in the downtown area, and there seem to be more beggars in the city. If you hear such words on weekdays, you probably I just laughed it off and thought it was no big deal.”
"However, if at the same time, many teahouses and restaurants have changed storytellers, new juggling troupes have appeared in the downtown areas of the southeast and northwest, and there are more beggars everywhere, it will be a bit unusual."
Qianyin nodded: "Fortunately, in the past few months, we have placed more and more hidden stakes in the city, and the information we have obtained has become more and more detailed, so we can find out. By connecting these information in series, we can discover Here comes the clue."
Qian Zhuo frowned and asked, "But what does this mean?"
Yunshang smiled: "Now I just noticed the clues, and I can't confirm the connection between these changes, and I can't know for the time being what kind of clues are hidden under these changes. But no matter what, we noticed the changes in the city in advance. It’s always good to have these things wrong, and now that you’ve noticed it, you can think of ways to investigate carefully based on these small clues.”
As Yun Shang spoke, she paused slightly: "In my opinion, there are some commonalities among the changes that Qian Yin just mentioned."
Seeing that the eyes of several people fell on her, Yun Shang slightly hooked the corners of her mouth: "The storyteller in the tea house and restaurant, the theater troupe, the juggling troupe in the downtown, and the beggars wandering in every corner of the city...these people... , seems to be the lowest level of people, but whether it is to inquire about news, collect intelligence, or spread rumors, it is the top choice."
"Your Majesty is suspicious. Behind these changes, there are people who are secretly manipulating. Is there someone who wants to use these people to inquire about information, gather intelligence, or spread gossip?"
Yun Chang nodded: "This is just my guess. To be specific, I need to let the hidden pile pay close attention to the movements of these people."
"If someone is really manipulating from behind, so many people are planted in the city at this time, I guess, they want to target, and they may target nothing more than three things. One, it is Xia Houjing who has fallen into our hands. Two, it's my birthday. Three, it's His Majesty's enthronement ceremony and my empress ceremony."
"There are only three recent and upcoming major events in the city. I don't think they will have any other goals. When they lead and order hidden stakes to investigate, they can also pay attention to these three events."
Qianyin quickly responded: "This subordinate understands."
Seeing her cautious look, Yunshang smiled to herself: "You are just pregnant, and you are not yet three months old. The fetal image is not stable, and you need to be careful. You will leave these matters to the following It’s just a matter of people doing it, you can rest well on your own and raise your baby with peace of mind.”
Qianyin laughed, raised her hand to brush the broken hair on her temples, and said with a soft smile: "Master, don't worry, the subordinates are well-measured, and they can't tire themselves out. Let the subordinates really do nothing all day long." If you don't do it, your subordinates will really feel bored..."
Seeing her say this, Yun Chang stopped persuading her, and just nodded: "It's good that you have a sense of proportion."
Qianyin sat and chatted with Yunshang and the others for a while, then got up to leave the palace.
Not long after Qianyin left, it suddenly started to rain outside, Yunshang stood up, walked to the window, watched the rain curtain outside gradually blurring the scenery in the yard, couldn't help curling her lips slightly : "Another eventful year."
Standing in the hall, Qianzhuo didn't hear what Yunshang said, but frowned: "It seems that there is a lot of rain this autumn. It only fell for two or three days in a row a few days ago, and it started to rain again today. Will it rain for another two or three days?"
After that, his eyes fell on Yunshang again: "My lady, the autumn wind and autumn rain are cool, my lady should close the windows, but don't catch a cold."
Yun Chang smiled, but raised her hand to close the window.
As expected, what Qian Zhuo said was right, the rain really fell for two or three days in a row.
For these two or three days, Yunshang stayed in Weiyang Palace, took care of the chores in the palace in the morning, and read Liu Cang's books in the afternoon and evening.
On the evening of the third day, the rain stopped, and Yunshang finally finished reading those books.
Luo Qingyan saw Yun Shang reading those books when she came here for the past few days, but she didn't express any opinions. Seeing that she closed the books and put them back on the shelf, she couldn't help raising her eyebrows :"finish watching?"
Yun Chang nodded: "It's over."
"See what?"
Yun Shang pondered for a moment: "When Xia Houjing raised troops in Liu Cang before, we had already studied Liu Cang inside and out thoroughly, and what was said in these books was not much different from what we learned before. It’s nothing more than a little bit more detailed, adding some customs and habits of Liu Cang, introducing those special products of Liu Cang, and nothing too special.”
Luo Yan smiled softly: "These books were compiled by some literati in Liucang, and what these literati see is also limited. Moreover, officials from all over the country can write in these books for their own political achievements and image. Yes, most of them are insignificant things, so naturally you can’t see anything.”
Yun Chang bit her lips: "But the concubine always feels that there must be something wrong with Liu Cang. If not, the Xian Wang would not go straight to Liu Cang. He must have seen the clues."
Luo Qingyan pulled Yun Shang over with a smile: "Then... what does Shang'er want to do?"
Yunshang was silent for a moment before she opened her mouth: "About asking about the books about construction works in the study, the concubine wants to invite some skilled craftsmen who are good at construction works to read those books carefully and see What kind of secret is hidden here?"
"And Liu Cang..." Yun Shang paused, raised her eyes and glanced at Luo Qingyan: "If the concubine said it, His Majesty would probably not agree."
Luo lightly raised his eyebrows: "Tell me?"
Yun Chang coughed lightly: "The concubine wants to go to Liu Cang in person to see what secret Liu Cang is hiding. Does Your Majesty agree?"
Luo softly clicked his tongue: "I guessed that you would say that."
After finishing speaking, he smiled and looked at Yunshang: "Because of Xia Houjing's incident in Liu Cang, Liu Cang is in great chaos now, I don't feel relieved if you go."
Yun Shang knew the result would be like this, curled her lips, and said nothing.
"Also, King Xian is in Liucang, do you think I will let you go there to meet him alone?"
