The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Today the weather is clear, the sky is blue, and there is a breeze, so although the climate is a little hot, it is still dry and cool, which is very suitable for going out for fun.

A carriage with a simple and low-key appearance passed through several streets in the center of the capital, passed by several streets near Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion, and finally arrived at the large garden behind Mushi.

At the main entrance of the garden there is a magnificent arched stone gate with cloud patterns carved on the top and a bas-relief of fish and dragons playing in the water carved on the door frame.

The main entrance was the busiest place, with carriages, horses and pedestrians coming and going, and at one point it was jam packed.

The quaint carriage stopped at a side door, and its axles slowly stopped turning.

Two men dressed as guards jumped out of the carriage. A smaller man was about to go up to help the person in the carriage, but was stopped by another guard.

I saw a jade-like hand lift up the black satin curtain embroidered with auspicious cranes from the inside, and then a man with an extraordinary figure appeared and jumped out of the carriage gracefully.

The man in black robe stood beside the car, raised his hand to lift the curtain, and a big hand stretched straight over.

A woman in a white dress in the car stretched out her slender hand, paused slightly, but still put her hand on the back of the man's hand.

The man's hands were strong and sturdy, and the woman used them for leverage when getting out of the car, but his hands did not move at all.

"Xiao Xiao is so nice. She cares about me, and I'm happy." Yun Mujiu immediately started to flatter her after getting off the car. "Xiao Xiao's arms are also very strong."

Ye Xiaohan withdrew his hand, turned his head away and said nothing, as if he was extremely unfamiliar with the woman he had just helped get out of the car.

Yun Mujiu pursed her lips and smiled. She felt that she was almost completely accustomed to the behavior of this arrogant man.

The two guards on the other side began to talk in a low voice, "Fusang, I told you not to go up. The prince will help the princess get off the car."

"How did you know?" Fusang, who was a head shorter than Suixi, showed a relieved smile and whispered, "I heard from Butler Zeng that in the past, the prince would not help anyone, and he would not even let anyone get close to him when he got out of the car." It can be seen how prominent the prince's cleanliness and arrogance are.

"The princess is naturally different." Sui Xi said very knowledgeably.

"That's right. The relationship between the two of them is naturally very good, and of course there will be many 'exceptions'." Fuso laughed.

Sui Xi parked the carriage and saw Ye Xiaohan and Yun Mujiu walking away side by side. He immediately wanted to run after them.

Fusang pulled him and reminded them that their roles today were guards and coachmen, and they should not rashly disturb the prince and princess.

Sui Xi obeyed silently, and also remembered that not long ago when they were in the garden of the city center lake, the two of them were undecided about whether to follow closely or leave first, so he slipped in front of the prince and princess to ask for their opinions.

At that time, the princess said that they could roam freely nearby and there was no need to follow them. To put it bluntly, it meant letting them play by themselves.

At this time, the two young guards looked at each other silently, and then they started to play happily in the garden. There were many mobile vendors near the entrance, selling all kinds of food and drinks.

Normally, the Night Palace provided food, clothing, lodging and transportation for the palace staff, so guards like Fusang and Suixi didn't have much to spend money on. Now that the two of them were out for a stroll, they naturally had a lot of money, so they tried this and that.

Of course, the two did not forget Yingliu in the dark. They quietly called Yingliu out from a corner and stuffed some food into his arms.

Yingliu said nothing, just nodded coldly, accepted the delicious food, and then said that he would stay by the prince and princess' side from a distance.

In the blink of an eye, Yingliu had turned and left, without a trace of his clothes.

Fuso was quite helpless and said with emotion: "Yingliu is indeed a member of the Cold Shadow Guard who once followed the prince. He has also learned some of the prince's cold temperament."

Going further into the garden, you will see a group of pavilions scattered among the ancient trees and stone mountains, and from time to time there will be people staying in one of the pavilions.

When Yun Mujiu came to the garden for the first time, he rescued a little boy who was suffering from severe heatstroke near these pavilions.

Ye Xiaohan and Yun Mujiu were strolling in the woods. Yun Mujiu looked at the people not far away who were holding umbrellas or wearing hats. She was glad that she and Ye Xiaohan were wearing veil hats with hollow tops, which could cover their faces and protect them from the sun. It was really a wise move.

The two of them had just chosen a pavilion in front of a bamboo forest to stop when Ying Liu suddenly appeared.

Yun Mujiu was surprised and asked, "Ying Liu, what happened? Why did you suddenly appear?"

Ying Liu nodded at the two of them and said, "I was afraid that the prince and princess were thirsty, so I showed up without permission." As he said that, he placed a few bamboo tubes of cool summer drinks in his hand on the table.

"Yingliu, you are thoughtful." Yun Mujiu smiled slightly and said in a friendly tone: "I'm glad you're okay." She was just worried that something might happen so she took the initiative to ask. She certainly would not make any harsh remarks or actions to her subordinates regarding some insignificant little things.

Yingliu raised his lips slightly, clasped his fists and was about to leave.

"Don't get a heatstroke." Ye Xiaohan said coldly.

Ying Liu was slightly startled, and his face showed more obvious joy. "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I won't do that!" After saying that, he bowed and disappeared.

Yun Mujiu turned his head, picked up a long, cold bamboo tube, and praised: "Xiao Xiao, the subordinates you trained are really excellent in every aspect and thoughtful."

The corner of his mouth curled up, and he said teasingly: "Xiao Xiao can also show concern for his subordinates with words."

Ye Xiaohan's face was cold: "I'm just afraid that he will die outside."

Yun Mujiu was actually speechless. Your Majesty, your talking skills are truly amazing!

At this moment, Yun Mujiu seemed to have forgotten that Night King would occasionally reveal his habitual "venomous tongue" style when speaking to her.

The breeze was blowing gently, and the two of them sat leisurely in the pavilion in the forest, which was quite elegant and leisurely.

Yun Mujiu felt that the summer day he spent with Ye Xiaohan seemed ordinary and dull, but it made him feel extremely peaceful and happy inside.

At that time, Ji Ling and his companions who were staying in the elegant room of Wangxian Tower also received the latest clues about Young Master Ling sent by Yun Mujiu to the secret guards of Yewang Mansion...
