The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Yun Mujiu seemed to have thought of something, and said with sudden enlightenment: "Oh, I remember now, you are talking about the matter between you and the prince."

"Sister, what are you talking about?" Yun Shirou's face turned awkward, fearing that Yun Mujiu would reveal something bad in public.

The prince doesn't like Yun Mujiu, and Yun Mujiu, who is ugly and useless, is not worthy of the prince. Although Yun Mujiu and the prince had a marriage contract, there is no love between them. Yun Shirou doesn't think there is anything wrong with her intervening in other people's marriages.

But in order to maintain her image, she couldn't let others know that she, as a younger sister, had interfered with her sister's relationship when Yun Mujiu was engaged to the prince. Once there was a stain, it would be even more difficult for her to marry the prince.

At this time, the dressing maid had already done her hair. Yun Mujiu turned to look at Yun Shirou, "Shirou, didn't you always encourage me to go find the prince? Every time I went to find the prince, you were always by my side! You have good relationships with people, and you get along with the prince better than I do."

She lowered her head, rolled up her sleeves and pretended to wipe away the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes, her voice tearing up as she said, "Although the prince and I are engaged, it was only a childhood engagement a long time ago. I am not familiar with him, and have only met him a few times and said hello."

Yun Mujiu remembered that it was Yun Shirou who had been instilling in him the idea that the prince was a good person and a good match. Under Yun Shirou's instigation, Yun Mujiu subconsciously felt that the prince was a good person and wanted to get closer to him.

She impulsively went to see the prince several times, but the prince never gave her a good look. He just said hello and left Yun Mujiu, turning to chat with the gentle and virtuous Yun Shirou.

When Yun Mujiu said this, he ignored his relationship with the prince and directed his criticism at Yun Shirou.

Yun Shirou was furious. When did Yun Mujiu, this bitch, become so slick? Could it be that she had been pretending to be stupid just to find a good opportunity to bring her down?

Thinking of herself jumping around in front of Yun Mujiu like a clown, Yun Shirou felt like her lungs were about to explode, and she shouted angrily: "Yun Mujiu, stop slandering me without reason!"

Impossible, Yun Mujiu is definitely still as stupid as before, but he dares to be arrogant just before his wedding!

Some young ladies and ladies then remembered that they had seen Yun Mujiu, Yun Shirou and the prince together at the banquet several times, but every time Yun Mujiu was at the back while Yun Shirou was having a pleasant conversation with the prince.

Yun Mujiu had successfully defended herself, and made others doubt Yun Shirou's true identity. She didn't want to say more to Yun Shirou, so she pointed at Yun Shirou's waist and asked curiously, "This ancient jade pendant of Hetian that you are wearing belongs to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, right?"

She remembered that the prince had once given Yun Shirou an antique jade pendant that he had carried with him all year round. Yun Shirou often showed off the jade pendant in front of her.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on Yun Shirou's waist. Yun Shirou panicked and subconsciously wanted to cover the jade pendant with her hands.

The ladies saw Yun Shirou's face flushed with anxiety, while Yun Mujiu looked calm and composed. They could not help but start to believe that it was Yun Shirou who was really pursuing the prince, and Yun Mujiu was just a cover.

How can such a scheming and shameless woman be worthy of close friendship?

I'm afraid that Mrs. Ye, as a stepmother, doesn't treat Yun Mujiu as sincerely as the rumors say.

The good reputation that Ye and Yun Shirou had built up over the years collapsed in an instant, and some smart ladies immediately took their daughters away from Yun Shirou.

Yun Shirou was anxious to explain, but she heard the servants loudly announce: "The auspicious time has arrived, the bridal sedan will soon arrive, please let the bride set off."

The sound of firecrackers rang out, and the atmosphere instantly became lively. The maids in the house quickly packed up their things, and everyone went out together to welcome the bride.

Yun Mujiu put on a red veil embroidered with mandarin ducks and was helped out by Ruchun and You Xia on her left and right.

According to custom, Yun Jingyu, as the younger brother, should be the one to carry Yun Mujiu out, but Yun Jingyu was not happy about it, and Ye also did not want her precious son to carry Yun Mujiu.

Yun Xiang also knew that Yun Mujiu had cheated the Ye family of a sum of money, but he didn't know the specific reason. Therefore, he didn't say much to Yun Jingyu. Anyway, Yun Mujiu was going to get married, so it didn't matter if there was no small ceremony.

When she arrived at the gate of Yun Mansion, she met Yun Xiang and Ye Shi who were waiting there. Yun Xiang hugged Ye Shi's shoulders, both of them looked sad and reluctant, and lovingly told her: "Mu Jiu, a married woman should obey her husband. You must live a good life with Ye Wang, and your mother and I will be relieved."

She bowed slightly towards them, and with a perfunctory tone, she managed to utter a choked voice: "Mu Jiu understands, I hope you two take care of your health."

No matter how much she disliked the couple in her heart, she would not rashly break up with them regardless of the occasion. She knew her limits.

Just as he finished speaking, the wedding procession from the Night Palace arrived. The servants of the Yun Palace sang a song to welcome the bride, and the sound of gongs, drums and firecrackers rang out.

Yun Mujiu saw through the thin red veil that eight ordinary guards were carrying a dragon and phoenix sedan chair towards him. The sedan chair was made of red and gold wood carvings, with a red lacquer base and wooden dragon and phoenix carvings on the top, silk tassels hanging from the four corners, and a red bird facing the phoenix on the body of the sedan chair.

Yun Mujiu was slightly surprised. This was the first time she had seen such a luxurious and majestic ancient sedan chair. Everything in front of her was different from her modern memories.

On both sides of the sedan chair were the royal guards, who were lined up in an orderly, solemn and dignified manner.

The people in the team were all guards, without a single maid accompanying them. No one beat gongs or drums, and no one carried flags, gongs, umbrellas or fans.

A personal guard stepped forward quickly and saluted Yun Mujiu, "Greetings to Princess Ye."

Yun Mujiu said calmly: "No need to be polite."

The guard stood up and replied respectfully, "Thank you, Princess."

Then he turned around and bowed to Yun Xiang, but it was a bow without any formality.

Prime Minister Yun didn't know what to say, because the chief guard of the Regent bowed to him in front of everyone, which was already a sign of politeness.

What's more, he and Ye Xiaohan are on two different fronts, and he was also involved in the attack on Ye Wang last time.

It would be fine to marry his adopted daughter to Ye Xiaohan to cause trouble. Even if it didn't cause trouble, King Ye's killing Yun Mujiu would help him solve the problem. In this way, he could even take the opportunity to report Ye Xiaohan for brutally killing his wife and disrespecting the imperial edict.

"Prince Yun, my prince is not available today, so we are the only ones here to welcome Princess Ye back to the palace."

Yun Xiang nodded to show his understanding. He complimented her and said, "It's okay. I'll leave Miss Yun to you."

The many guests on the side were also silent, as they all knew that it was impossible for the Night King to come to welcome the bride.

After all, everyone knew the current physical condition of the Regent. How could he, who was always proud and brave, be willing to appear in front of everyone in a wheelchair? Moreover, Yun Mujiu was marrying up to the Regent, so it was normal for the Regent not to come to welcome her.

"Princess Ye, please." The guard bent down slightly and stretched out his right hand, with the tip of his palm pointing towards the sedan chair.

The atmosphere at the silent wedding reception became increasingly strange; the servants in the palace did not beat drums or gongs or set off fireworks or firecrackers.

Yun Mujiu walked towards the bridal sedan in the silence of everyone.

Following a guard's shout of "Lift the sedan", Yun Mujiu sat in the sedan and left the Yun Mansion, leaving behind the cage and shackles where the original owner had grown up.
