The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Ye Chuhe's eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone was calm: "I just haven't left the palace for a long time, and I just want to go and see you. Mother, don't worry about me."

Ye Chuhe had always been honest and serious in front of Concubine Yu, so Concubine Yu didn't think much about it when she heard it.

"Then be careful when you leave the palace. Mother will send two more secret guards with strong martial arts skills to stay with you."

Ye Chuhe understood that Concubine Yu was worried about his safety. After all, his legs were disabled and his ability to protect himself was questionable.

He nodded and smiled brightly: "I understand, thank you mother."

Concubine Yu was in a good mood and added: "It's good to go out and relax. Maybe you will meet a girl you like."

Ye Chuhe looked a little uncomfortable, "Mother, please stop teasing me."

Concubine Yu sighed secretly. Ye Chuhe was already over 20 years old, but he didn't have a single woman to accompany him.

She didn't think that Ye Chuhe's inability to stand up was the key reason why he was alone. Ye Chuhe had excellent conditions in all aspects and was very elegant. Many women liked him, but Ye Chuhe had never had any thoughts about love.

Concubine Yu asked, "Did you have a deep impression of that lady at the last palace banquet? If you are interested in that lady, mother can invite her to the palace to have a chat."

Ye Chuhe lowered his eyes, and subconsciously thought of the woman in the golden wide-sleeved dress—Yun Mujiu. At the banquet, among the crowd, Yun Mujiu's words and behavior were so dignified and elegant. When facing the provocation of others, she was not afraid of the situation and generously showed her strength.

Ye Chuhe let out an inaudible sigh, and then recalled the scene when Yun Mujiu treated him when the poison took effect.

Once the miracle doctor woman came to his aid, his calm mood began to ripple.

Ye Chuhe did not reveal his true feelings to Concubine Yu, but just shook his head: "Mother, I am used to being alone, and I have no plans to get married for the time being."

Concubine Yu had long expected Ye Chuhe to answer like this, so she didn't try to persuade him too much.

But she still added: "Princess Bei Liyi came to Zhongyue for the purpose of marriage, but your father did not intend to let Bei Liyi and Wanyan Gu get their wish, so it is difficult for the two of them to find a partner with a strong background in Zhongyue. Mother is reminding you that even if you find a woman you like, that person cannot be Bei Liyi, who is both arrogant and stupid..."

"Don't worry, mother. I have no interest in princesses from other countries."

"Well," Concubine Yu was relieved, and added, "People like the Second Miss of the Yun Mansion are definitely not allowed. She has a vicious heart and has treated her sister, Princess Ye, badly."

Ye Chuhe was helpless. Why did his mother tell him everything? He was not the kind of person who only had love in his mind...

"Okay, okay, mother, please stop talking. I can understand your thoughts." Ye Chuhe was afraid that Concubine Yu would continue to talk about other women.

Concubine Yu struggled and finally said a name: "Bai Yanshuang."

"How about Bai Yanshuang? She confronted Bei Liyi at the palace banquet and showed her talent. Although her father is only a third-rank general, it is appropriate to marry her as a concubine."

"Bai Yanshuang?" Ye Chuhe repeated the name, slowly recalling Bai Yanshuang's image. However, he still shook his head, "Mother, please don't tease me. I still have a lot of things to do, and I have to put aside the love affairs."

He lowered his eyes and stared at his two paralyzed legs.

Concubine Yu looked at her beloved son with his head down, thinking that she had accidentally touched his scar by urging him to get married.

Yes, men all love to save face. Ye Chuhe has a leg disease, and as proud as he is, how could he allow himself to treat his future sweetheart in this state?

Concubine Yu immediately shut up and gave up the idea of ​​asking the emperor to find a princess for Ye Chuhe. "Mother, I won't say anything more. Mother understands your thoughts. The most important thing during this period is to cure your leg. Nothing else is more important than curing the disease."

"Yeah." Ye Chuhe looked up, glad that Concubine Yu finally stopped muttering.

A large group of people gathered at the gate of the Yun Mansion to watch the fun.

Wang Gui, the owner of the Herb Hall, and several of its employees were all standing at the door of the Yun Mansion, seemingly waiting for someone to come out.

Not long after, Yun Xiang learned that there was a disturbance at the door, and it was someone from the Herbal Hall. He didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly rushed out with Ye's mother and daughter.

Wang Gui was neither humble nor arrogant, and he led his servants to pay great respects to Yun Xiang. "Yun Xiang, I am the shopkeeper of Herbal Hall, and I am here to return something to the Yun Mansion under the order of the boss."

Yun Xiang was stunned. Isn't Yun Mujiu the owner of Herb Hall? Yun Mujiu is really endless. What tricks does he want to play?

He looked behind Wang Gui and saw six large flatbed carriages behind him. There was a huge mound of stuff piled on the carriages, but it was all covered with canvas, so he couldn't tell what was on them.

Yun Xiang felt inexplicably irritated and asked, "What is it?"

Wang Gui half turned around and lifted the canvas of one of the carriages, revealing many dried Chinese medicinal herbs and some stacked bottles and jars.

"Reporting to Prime Minister Yun, Young Master Mu has taken over the Herb Hall and counted the fake medicines left behind by the previous owner and manager of the Herb Hall. I have sent you here to return them to the Yun Mansion." Wang Gui did not mention Yun Mujiu, but mentioned Yun Mujiu's other identity - Young Master Mu, in order to sever ties with the Yun Mansion.

The onlookers were in an uproar, and those who had been cheated by the previous owner of Herb Hall were very angry.

"Damn it! Wasn't it Madam Ye who managed the Herbal Hall before? She actually accumulated so many fake drugs. I wonder how many innocent patients she deceived!"

“So many fake drugs, it’s too much!”

"Princess Ye is so kind. After taking over the Herb Hall, she cleared out all the fake medicines and rebuilt the Herb Hall."

...

Yun Xiang was speechless. The facts were right in front of him. How could he save the situation?

Ye was so scared when she saw so many fake drugs. She was afraid. Yun Xiang was angry with her because he had to pay Yun Mujiu a sum of money. She didn't expect Yun Mujiu to keep these fake drugs to slap them in the face! Now her relationship with Yun Xiang is even worse!

Yun Shirou showed dissatisfaction and looked at the nosy people with cold eyes. Yun Mujiu was dying of illness, and he was still causing trouble for the Yun Mansion! When the Ye Mansion lifted the closed-off management, she would definitely teach Yun Mujiu a lesson!

Yun Xiang snorted coldly, "Take this garbage away, the Yun Mansion doesn't want it!"

Wang Gui thought to himself that Yun Xiang's behavior was exactly as the princess had guessed.

Wang Gui followed the words that Yun Mujiu had prepared in advance and said to Prime Minister Yun, "Master Yun, Master Mu said that since the Yun Mansion has already compensated Herb Hall for its operating losses over the years, these fake medicines should be returned to the Yun Mansion intact."

Yun Xiang was furious and ordered several servants and guards in the mansion, "Drive them away! Stop talking nonsense here!"

"Wait!" A clear male voice came from a distance. The voice was not loud, but it was loud enough for everyone present to hear clearly.

Yun Xiang and his family looked in the direction of the voice and saw a handsome young man standing in front of the crowd, accompanied by a group of neatly dressed guards.

"Who are you?" Yun Xiang frowned, "How dare you, a brat, cause trouble in front of a first-rank minister?"

The young man walked closer to the gate of the Yun Mansion, his smile growing wider.

"Uncle, don't you know who I am?"
