The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Under Yun Mujiu's curious gaze, Duke Meng told him a lot about his experiences when he was young. This was also the first time Yun Mujiu learned about Duke Meng in detail.

"When my grandfather was young, he experienced a lot. At that time, I was keen on martial arts and always wanted to become a military general, make achievements, and maintain the stability of the country..."

...

Yun Mujiu accompanied Duke Meng for a long time, while Ye Xiaohan was invited to Meng Shihao's study and chatted with Meng Shihao and his son. However, Wei Song and Wei Bai also went with him. Meng Shihao knew that King Ye didn't like to talk much, so he mostly chatted with Wei Song and Wei Bai about trivial matters in the court.

It was getting dark. Yun Mujiu and Ye Xiaohan said goodbye to the people from the Meng Mansion and returned to the Ye Palace.

Yun Mujiu looked at Ye Xiaohan's long legs and smiled helplessly: "My Lord, you have suffered a lot today. You have been sitting in a wheelchair for a long time."

"That's perfect. We don't have to walk." Ye Xiaohan replied calmly.

Yun Mujiu laughed. Why didn’t he notice that Ye Xiaohan had a sense of humor before?

"When will the prince announce the news that his legs have recovered?" Yun Mujiu asked casually.

Ye Xiaohan said in a deep voice: "Wait for the best time."

Playing the pig and eating the tiger is a good strategy. If you can be stable, then be stable...

Yun Mujiu was thoughtful, "Now, except for the people in the Ye Palace, no one outside knows that the prince has recovered." She thought about telling the people in the Meng Palace that Ye Xiaohan had recovered, but whether Ye Xiaohan recovered or not was crucial, and those who knew about it might be implicated. Therefore, in order to better protect the Meng Palace, she could only keep some extremely dangerous news secret from the Meng Palace for the time being.

"Yeah. We did a good job keeping it a secret."

"That's not right," Yun Mujiu suddenly remembered something, "The Seventh Prince and Cang Feng know that the prince can stand up." At that time, she did not expect that Ye Xiaohan would meet the Seventh Prince with his true face, nor did she expect that Ye Xiaohan would lead soldiers to help her guard the operating room.

“It doesn’t matter if Old Seven knows.” Ye Chufeng would not tell anyone.

Yun Mujiu thought about it and agreed that the Seventh Prince was a decent person.

Besides, Ye Xiaohan took the initiative to suggest that the Seventh Prince be treated in the Ye Palace, which proved that Ye Xiaohan was confident that he could handle the follow-up matters. The Seventh Prince was treated in the Ye Palace, and he would inevitably run into Ye Xiaohan, and Ye Xiaohan walked normally in front of people, so the Seventh Prince naturally understood Ye Xiaohan's true physical condition.

Instead of hiding it, Ye Xiaohan might as well expose the news directly, maybe he can take the opportunity to see the reaction of the Seventh Prince. If the Seventh Prince reacts inappropriately or has other bad ideas, then it will be too late for the Ye Palace to take other measures.

Yun Mujiu expressed his thoughts, and Ye Xiaohan said "hmm" lightly.

He just used an interjection, which did not mean that he fully agreed with Yun Mujiu's guess.

However, someone who was smug about his sharp mind did not know what the Night King's true thoughts were.

"I understand. The prince just thinks that the Seventh Prince is an okay person. In addition, he will be recuperating in the Night Palace for a while, so the prince naturally does not need to deliberately keep it secret from him."

Ye Xiaohan said "hmm" again. Mu Mu guessed correctly, but he hadn't guessed the key reason.

Ye Xiaohan stood up. Under the bright yellow light, Ye Xiaohan's tall figure left a shadow on the wall.

The reason why he revealed the news that his legs had healed was mainly to show his strength and shock Ye Chufeng. Don't think he didn't see that Ye Chufeng seemed to care about her princess...

That's right, Ye Wang is a jealous person. He didn't think about many other in-depth reasons, which had nothing to do with government affairs, family affection, or testing whether Ye Chufeng was reliable. He just felt that he had to use his strength to eliminate the competitive mentality in Ye Chufeng's heart...

In Qingxuan Palace, Ye Chufeng hurried back to the palace before the palace gates were locked. He did not miss any of the lively scenes in front of the Yewang Mansion, Yun Mansion, and Meng Mansion today.

Last time he asked his men to suppress the Yun Mansion's pawnshop sales. Now the items sold by the Yun Mansion can't be sold for much money, and at the same time, the Yun Mansion no longer has any valuable items to pawn.

Recalling his childhood, Yun Mujiu said to him in a sad tone: "My father didn't care about me, and my mother always beat and scolded me."

Ye Chufeng sighed softly, "When Yun Mujiu was little, she told me some things about her family. I comforted her and told her that everything would be fine in the future. At least she has her mother by her side, unlike me who doesn't even know what her biological mother looks like."

Looking up at the dark night outside the window, he continued, "It was not until I met her again later that I realized that the 'mother' she was talking about was not her biological mother, but a vicious and sinister stepmother. I'm afraid her experience was even more miserable than mine..."

"And I actually advised her to be magnanimous and try to be considerate of the elders in the family..."

Ye Chufeng had a complicated expression. Cang Feng opened his mouth, not knowing what words of comfort to say.

"Seventh Prince, you didn't know the situation in Xiaoyun Mansion at that time, and you were just trying to comfort Princess Ye out of kindness."

“Fortunately, she has now successfully left that cannibalistic home through her own efforts.” Ye Chufeng replied to Cang Feng.

With a feeling of guilt in his heart, Ye Chufeng thought of himself at this moment. "What about me? When can I leave this cage?"

The palace was a place where people were eaten alive, and he really hated the treacherous life here.

"Seventh Prince, don't worry, this day will come." Cang Feng is very optimistic about his highness.

Ye Chufeng curled his lips and said, "I hope that day will come in time."

He stood up, walked to the window, and pushed open the half-closed window. "The moonlight is bright tonight, and the dark sky makes the light yellow color of the crescent moon look soft and delicate."

His eye disease was completely cured, and he had fulfilled his long-cherished wish. But even without the disability, he was still not as good as that man...

"Cang Feng, do you know why the Night King told me that he had recovered?"

"Why, I don't know?" Cang Feng was puzzled. "Could it be that the Night King was planning to tell the world about his recovery, so he didn't mind letting you know in advance?"

"Not really." Ye Chufeng turned around, his eyes flashing with emotion. "One of the reasons is that Uncle Ye believes in me, so he is not afraid that I will betray the Ye Mansion."

"I see." Cang Feng seemed to be thinking, "Seventh Prince, what are the other reasons?"

Ye Chufeng lowered his eyes and fell into thought...

His tone was profound, and he made an additional guess: "Also, maybe the Night King wanted to reveal some of his strength to me. Or maybe he didn't bother to hide the fact that he had recovered a long time ago from me."

The Night King was already extremely good, and now he was in good health without any worries. If the Night King was still in the depressed state he was in when he just returned to the capital, he would still have some confidence to work hard and try his best to catch up with the Night King's strength.

But now, he no longer had that confidence. No matter how hard he tried, the gap between him and the God of War Ye Xiaohan could not be made up through simple efforts.

In addition, Yun Mujiu repeatedly showed that he had a harmonious relationship with the Night King, so he knew that no matter in terms of strength or feelings, he could not...

Unable to defeat the Night King...
