The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Ye Chuhe lowered his eyes and concealed all the emotions in his eyes, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.

Concubine Yu saw that Ye Chuhe's spirits had improved, so she continued the conversation.

"He'er, your father has been worried about the attack on Ye Mansion recently, and today he was furious because he wanted to eliminate the real culprit behind the assassin. We need to pay more attention to your father's condition in the next few days."

This is a good opportunity for them to show their talents in front of the emperor. The emperor will feel that this mother and son are caring and warm-hearted, and will pay more attention to and love them more.

Ye Chuhe understood the deep meaning of Concubine Yu's words, and he responded: "Yes, mother, I will find a chance to comfort father."

"Well, that's good," Concubine Yu smiled faintly, "My son is really considerate, and your father's care for you is not in vain."

Concubine Yu was good at guessing people's minds, which was one of the secrets for her to remain the favorite in the harem for many years.

"By the way, He'er, do you think the Night King will really close his palace to treat Yun Mujiu because she is sick? I didn't expect that Yun Mujiu would become beautiful and be favored by the Night King."

Ye Chuhe had an indifferent expression, without any trace of surprise on his face.

"Perhaps the truth is not so. In my opinion, the Night King does not seem to be the kind of person who values ​​love too much."

"Mother, you must not interfere in the affairs of the Night King. Although the Night King is now in decline, the dust has not settled yet, and everything is still unknown."

He didn't think that his father's faction could completely defeat Ye Xiaohan in one fell swoop.

Even though Ye Xiaohan was seriously injured and unable to walk, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse, and Ye Xiaohan still has great potential.

Although he had no interest in the struggle for power, he was born into a royal family, so how could he stay out of it? If he didn't care about anything, he and his mother's family would be the most likely to die.

For this reason, Ye Chuhe had to plan a way out for himself and his mother's family.

Concubine Yu listened carefully to Ye Chuhe's words and nodded heavily. "Yes, mother will listen to you."

Although her son was physically disabled, he was good in other aspects and excelled in wisdom, mind, strategy, etc.

In her heart, Crown Prince Ye Chuao, Seventh Prince Ye Chufeng, and Fourth Prince Ye Chugeng could not be compared with her son.

Ye Chuhe said in a deep voice:

"Okay, we will just watch from the sidelines for the time being and not get involved in this chaotic factional dispute."

If Ye Chuhe was not a disabled person, he might have lived a completely different life from now...

In Yun Xiangfu, the atmosphere in the reception hall was a little depressing.

The sudden visit of Crown Prince Ye Chuao caused everyone in the Yun Mansion to panic and get busy.

Yun Xiang smiled and asked, "Your Highness, what brings you here today?"

Ye Chuao sat upright in the main seat and said leisurely, "Prime Minister Yun, has everything been okay these days?"

"Everything is fine at the Yun Mansion. Thank you for your concern, Your Highness."

Ye Chuao narrowed his eyes slightly, took a sip of tea, and then said, "Oh? Then why has Miss Yun stayed indoors these days?"

"I heard that Miss Yun was ill a few days ago, so I couldn't come to her house rashly. That's why I took the time to come and visit her in person now."

Yun Xiang's heart tightened, and he hurriedly explained, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. My wife and children have caught a cold a few days ago and have a high fever. That's why we can't go out, and we dare not meet Your Highness, for fear of infecting His Highness."

"Last time, my wife and I heard that Princess Ye was ill. Shi Rou was concerned about her sister's safety, so she went to visit Princess Ye even though she had a fever."

Yun Xiang didn't dare say that his wife and children were poisoned, as he couldn't find out the cause of their poisoning.

If word got out that he, the prime minister of a country, had his wife and children poisoned by an unknown person, he would be humiliated! The emperor and other court officials would definitely feel that they were incompetent, and his opponents would secretly mock him.

His daughter Yun Shirou repeatedly declined the prince's invitation to go out, but later she came forward to find Yun Mujiu.

In order not to make the prince angry, they could only say that Yun Shirou went to visit Yun Mujiu while she was sick. Anyway, Yun Shirou had not fully recovered at that time, and the traces of poisoning on her face were only covered by thick makeup.

Therefore, the old man's clever Yun Xiang could only slightly conceal the truth and modify and polish it to come up with a perfect explanation.

The prince's expression eased slightly after hearing this.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly: "Oh, I see. So how are they doing now?"

"They recovered from their illness yesterday. I was thinking of letting Shirou meet you, the Crown Prince, in the next two days."

When the prince heard Yun Xiang's compliment, the doubt in his heart was completely dispelled.

It turned out that Yun Shirou was really sick and was not hiding from him.

It makes sense. Ye Chuao is the crown prince of a country, and his mother is the queen of the current dynasty. He is the future crown prince, and many women want to get his favor. How could Yun Shirou be willing to give up hugging his thigh?

This woman is sensible!

The prince lowered his head and took a few sips of tea.

Prime Minister Yun gave a wink to the servants in the Yun Mansion. The servants immediately understood what he meant and quickly and quietly retreated.

Yun Xiang forced a smile on his face, making him look a little more friendly.

"Your Highness, I will call Shirou out right now. We haven't seen each other for a long time. We can have a small chat."

The prince said that Yun Xiang's arrangement was very much to his liking. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said calmly, "Okay."

After a while, the servant appeared with Yun Shirou, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes.

Yun Shirou was lightly made up today, but her small and delicate facial features had a somewhat flamboyant beauty. The slight contrast between her makeup and her appearance only highlighted her beauty.

Yun Shirou's biological mother, Ye, was very charming and beautiful, and Yun Shirou also inherited a lot of this charm.

Every frown and smile seems to be able to capture one's soul.

A flash of surprise flashed across the prince's eyes, and he pretended to be calm and drank his tea again.

Yun Xiang said, "Your Highness, please chat with Shi Rou first. I will go and see if the servants have arranged the meal properly."

The prince nodded, looking calm.

Yun Xiang took all the servants and left the reception room.

Yun Shirou smiled shyly and whispered: "Your Highness the Crown Prince..."

As she was about to bow, the prince immediately stood up and took a few quick steps to Yun Shirou.

He held Yun Shirou's arms with both hands and said softly, "Shirou, you don't have to be so polite."

"Long time no see. Is everything okay, Your Highness the Crown Prince?" Yun Shirou opened her big eyes and looked at Ye Chuao with an extremely pure look.

The prince's heart moved, and he embraced Yun Shirou with his arms.

"Everything is fine with me, but I miss you a little."

Yun Shirou's face turned red and she pretended to struggle a few times, trying to escape from Ye Chuao's arms.

"Your Highness, please let me go first..."

She clenched her fist and punched Ye Chuao's chest, but the force was very gentle, like a kitten scratching an itch.

The prince grabbed Yun Shirou's hands with his backhand and held her tightly in his arms with his other hand.

Yun Shirou could only smile helplessly and snuggle shyly in the prince's arms.

Then the prince asked Yun Shirou about her recent situation with the same question. Yun Shirou had communicated with Yun Xiang in advance and she also spoke out the prepared statements one by one.

The prince's doubts were completely dispelled, and the smile on his face became somewhat sincere.

He really liked Yun Shirou. Yun Shirou was kind and beautiful, and understood his thoughts. Besides, Yun Xiang was behind Yun Shirou.

If he wants to ascend the throne in the future, he will naturally find some good assistants in advance, and Yun Xiang, who is highly regarded by the emperor, is one of the good candidates.

The prince finally found an opportunity to reminisce with Yun Shirou, and the two took the opportunity to express their longing for each other.
