The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent
Chapter 17 Before marriage, both parties are careless
More and more anxious calls were heard, followed by increasingly rapid knocks on the door.
Yun Mujiu, who was in her dream, only then felt the disturbance from the outside world. She suddenly opened her eyes. Although her mind was not fully clear yet, she knew that it was the two maids calling her.
Yun Mujiu asked with a slight grumble: "What's the matter?"
The noise outside the door finally stopped, and Yun Mujiu heard the two maids heaving a sigh of relief.
Ruchun outside the door hurriedly said, "The eldest lady will be getting married tomorrow. We servants have been ordered to come and decorate Mengyue Pavilion. The entire Xiangfu is also busy decorating for the wedding."
Ruchun and Youxia patted their chests. They were really scared just now. Without hearing any answer, they were afraid that the young lady might run away.
But they couldn't just open the door and go in. What if the young lady was taking a nap? If they went in and disturbed her, they would definitely be in trouble.
Now they knew that the young lady was taking a nap. They hoped that the young lady would not blame them.
Ruchun and Youxia lowered their heads, and time seemed to stand still for a few seconds.
Within these few minutes, Yun Mujiu put on her veil and walked towards the main hall.
"Come in." Yun Mujiu replied coldly.
As soon as the two maids came in, they saw Yun Mujiu sitting on the soft couch in the main hall, his head supported by his right hand, half of his body leaning against the pearwood table on the couch, his eyes looking listless as if he had been disturbed.
Ruchun and Youxia looked at each other, then waved to the maids behind them to come in and decorate.
Yun Mujiu said nothing and let them arrange it as they pleased. She sat lazily with her eyes squinted, her pupils lowered, and her long eyelashes drooped to hide the deep thought in her eyes at the moment.
Although everything in the dream is chaotic, it is so real. What secrets does she have?
The Yun Mansion was bustling with activity, while the Ye Mansion seemed a little more deserted.
Du Ziheng tried his best to save Ye Xiaohan all night, and finally succeeded in temporarily suppressing the poison in the prince's body. Fortunately, no outsiders knew about the situation in the Ye Mansion during this period, otherwise it is very likely that various forces would come to trouble them, after all, many people wanted to kill Ye Xiaohan.
He looked at Wei Bo, whose eyes were red and swollen and had dark circles under them, and was about to pull up the corners of his mouth to laugh at him. Then he thought that his condition must be worse than Wei Bo's, so he stopped pulling up the corners of his mouth.
Wei Bai rubbed his eyebrows and saw Du Ziheng's strange appearance. He asked in confusion: "Du Ziheng, have you been so busy all night that your face is paralyzed and your mouth is crooked?"
"You, you, you are not much better!" Du Ziheng almost vomited blood. As expected, even after a night of hard work, Wei Bai was still so sharp-tongued.
The two looked at each other, then snorted coldly at the same time and turned their heads away.
But the next second they did not quarrel as usual, but turned to look at the prince, hoping that he would wake up soon.
After a while, Ye Xiaohan finally woke up.
His mental state has improved a lot, but his face is still a little pale.
He was once a war hero, leading troops to battle in all directions to protect the country's safety. But now he has been betrayed by his own country and colluded with the enemy. He was seriously injured and his legs were disabled.
However, Ye Xiaohan did not feel sad, lost or resentful because of this.
His mother died of illness when he was two years old, and his father suddenly fell seriously ill and passed away when he was five years old. He was left all alone in the world.
After his father passed away, his eldest brother, Ye Haolian, quickly ascended the throne and suppressed Ye Xiaohan everywhere. If he had not been young at the time and the emperor had not been able to take action, he would have been killed or exiled like his other brothers.
He went through many hardships and fought his way through many sieges to reach where he is today. With his own efforts, he propped up the Night Palace, trained a group of subordinates, and possessed powerful military power and authority.
If this little setback could defeat him now, then he would not be Ye Xiaohan.
Ye Xiaohan supported himself with his hands and sat up. He looked at Wei Bai and Du Ziheng and nodded to them, indicating that he was in good health and affirming them.
Du Ziheng and Wei Bai were delighted. Now that the prince had woken up, they had a backbone. No matter how wise and prudent Wei Bai was, he could not compare to Ye Xiaohan, who was far-sighted and thoughtful.
Wei Bai said, "Your Highness, according to the latest news from the secret guards, a palace servant will come to the mansion in a few moments to assist our staff in making arrangements for tomorrow's wedding."
Ye Xiaohan's dark eyes were calm, "Send someone to secretly watch them and don't cause any trouble. As for other matters concerning the wedding, you can handle them as you wish."
"Yes, Your Majesty, I understand." Wei Bai replied respectfully.
Ye Xiaohan snapped his fingers, and a tall dark guard dressed in black immediately appeared. Shadow Six, a member of the Cold Shadow Guard of Ye Xiaohan's dark guard team.
"Ying Liu, is there anything unusual in Yun Xiang Mansion?"
Yesterday, Ye Xiaohan first learned about the existence of Yun Mujiu from someone else, the so-called "future queen" of King Ye. So he immediately sent secret guards to inspect the Yun Mansion, including all matters related to Yun Mujiu from childhood to adulthood.
He wanted to kill Yun Mujiu directly, but even if Yun Mujiu died, the emperor might order the selection of a new Princess Ye. Therefore, Ye Xiaohan did not send someone to assassinate Yun Mujiu immediately, but could send someone to kill Yun Mujiu directly after Yun Mujiu entered the palace.
After all, Yun Mujiu is the daughter of Yun Xiang, and Yun Xiang is the emperor's loyal errand boy. To him, Yun Mujiu is just two people on the opposing front and is of no importance.
Moreover, the secret guards found out that the attack on his way back to Beijing and this sudden marriage were both related to Yun Xiang.
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Yun and Madam Ye visited Miss Yun last night, and there was nothing unusual."
"This morning Miss Yun acted out of character and beat up the servants, claiming that the food was poisoned."
"They used this as a threat, and because Prime Minister Yun's youngest daughter secretly hooked up with Miss Yun's original 'fiancé', the crown prince, they ordered Ye to return her mother Meng Wanzhou's dowry, which totaled 60 taels of silver."
"Miss Yun's behavior today is very different from usual. Ye thought Yun Mujiu woke up after breaking her head. Or maybe Miss Yun has been pretending all these years just to find the right time to strike back."
Ying Liu knelt on one knee and told everything about Yun Mujiu. However, he was unaware of some other things.
No matter what, Yun Mujiu was the Princess of Ye appointed by His Majesty, and was the prince's "fiancée" in public. Moreover, there were differences between men and women, so Ying Liu left directly when Yun Mujiu was resting in bed, washing, bathing and changing clothes.
However, Yun Mujiu often had some unusual things happen at this time. No one would have thought that Yun Mujiu would heal his face by lying in bed and taking medicine, or that marks would appear on his body again.
After listening to Ying Liu's report, Ye Xiaohan also noticed that Yun Mujiu's condition was abnormal. As for whether Yun Mujiu was pretending in the early stage and what conspiracy he might have, these are currently unknown. They will be revealed once Yun Mujiu enters the mansion to investigate.
No one would think that Yun Xiang would be so kind as to let his eldest daughter marry a rival. Even if it was to humiliate the rival and cause trouble for the rival, Yun Mujiu might be secretly colluding with Yun Xiang.
Because of lack of understanding and knowledge, in this situation, no one would easily trust a stranger with an opposing background and unknown background.
Ye Xiaohan ordered in a low voice: "Well. You continue to inspect Yun Xiangfu."
"Yes, I obey your command." Ying Liu clasped his hands together, bowed his head slightly, and disappeared in a flash.
Du Ziheng and Wei Bo, who had been standing nearby, couldn't help but become curious.
What kind of person is Yun Mujiu?
Why hasn't he behaved as stupid, cunning and domineering as the rumors in Beijing say recently?
Is it a deliberate disguise or is someone deliberately making her behave like this?
