Chapter 979 A Mysterious Couple

Yun Shang nodded and sighed in her heart. Doctor Xue Yan couldn't have expected that he would be killed by his disciple whom he had raised for many years.

"But why did Zheng Qiming kill Doctor Xue Yan? No matter how powerful Doctor Xue Yan is, he is just a doctor. A doctor is not a threat to Xia Houjing and can't obstruct him. Why did he have to kill him?" Yun Shang couldn't figure out why Xia Houjing killed Xue Yan.

Hearing Yun Shang's question, Luo Qingyan fell silent. Seeing this, a light flashed in Yun Shang's mind. She paused for a moment and lowered her head. "Doctor Xue Yan helped me a lot. It's me who hurt him."

Worrying that Yun Shang would overthink, Luo Qingyan put his arm around Yun Shang's shoulder and said, "It's all Zheng Qiming's fault. What we can do for Xue Yan now is to revenge him. If Zheng Qiming and Chen Miaosi do something bad in the name of Doctor Xue Yan's disciples, it will really ruin his reputation."

Yun Shang nodded and said, "I must revenge Doctor Xue Yan."

Seeing that Luo Qingyan was in a better spirit, Luo Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief and quickly agreed.

While they were talking, Qian Zhuo walked in from the outside. She looked at the two people carefully and said softly, "Your Majesty, some news has been sent back from the Yang Liu Town."

Yun Shang looked up at Luo Qingyan, but met his gaze. She smiled and ordered softly, "Go ahead."

Qian Zhuo nodded and reported with her head down, "The secret guard found out that two months after the teacher, Liu Jin, moved to Yang Liu Town, a couple also moved to the town. The couple have outstanding appearances and bought the best house in the town generously, so many people had a deep impression of them. A woman in the town had once worked in that house and was responsible for purchasing food. She said that she had seen the young boy of Liu Jin's mansion in that couple's house. She also said that the young master called the couple dad and mom."

Both Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan were surprised and excited.

"Is there a lachrymal mole on the woman's face?" Yun Shang asked hurriedly.

Qian Zhuo was stunned for a moment before she answered softly, "The secret guard didn't ask about it in detail. But he told that the man called his wife Xi Er. The man seemed to be in poor health and had been taking medicine for years. The two of them kept a low profile and rarely went out. That man likes to carve wood, and the carvings are lifelike. "

Yun Shang narrowed her eyes and thought, Xi Er, Cao Wenxi. It must be her.

But who was that man? According to Liu Yinfeng's age, when Cao Wenxi gave birth to Liu Yinfeng, she was still the Crown Princess. Yun Shang had guessed that Liu Yinfeng was the son of the crown prince, Xia Huanyu's brother, Xia Chun.

Liu Yinfeng called the man father. Was it possible that the man was Xia Chun?

But

ile, nodded and said, "It doesn't matter. It's just a Xia Houjing."

Yun Shang nodded and said nothing.

Although Yun Shang was in a better mood than the previous days, she was still weak and she had to stay in Weiyang Palace to rest.

In the blink of an eye, the Lantern Festival was coming.

On the early morning of the Lantern Festival, the Emperor and the Empress should go to the city gate tower to receive the worship from the people. Luo Qingyan took Yun Shang out of the Palace early in the morning, and the crowd had been cleared up along the way. Luo Qingyan looked at the lanterns on both sides of the street and turned to Yun Shang, "There will be the most grand lantern show in the city tonight. Do you want to come out and have a walk?"

Hearing this, Yun Shang shook her head and said softly, "I remember last year when Xia Huanyu took Ning Qian out of the Palace for the lantern show, they met assassins. You have a different identity now and it's a troubled time. We'd better be careful."

Hearing this, Luo Qingyan kept silent for a moment and sighed, "I'm sorry to make you suffer. Now that you're with me, you even can't enjoy a lantern show."

Yun Shang smiled. "Now that I'm the noblest woman in the State of Xia. But Your Majesty said you made me suffer. Are you setting me up to be unjust? People who don't know me might think I'm going to take the throne."

Luo Qingyan couldn't help laughing. Seeing that Yun Shang was in the mood to joke, he felt a little relieved.

When they arrived at the gate tower of the Jin City, there were already full of people on the street. When they saw Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang appear, they were very excited, and the noise was deafening. Then they all knelt down and kowtowed to Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang. "Your Majesties. May good fortune always shine on you."

Luo Qingyan raised his hand and said, "Arise." His voice was so powerful.
