The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

The banquet invitation mentioned by Ye Wang and Ying Yi was related to Princess Gaoyang and Prince Consort Cao's family. The invitation sent out by the Grand Princess's residence yesterday was in the name of holding the last birthday banquet for Old Lady Cao before she left Beijing.

Since yesterday evening, many important people in the capital have received invitations that have been continuously passed out from the Grand Princess's residence.

...

With a pounding heart, Yun Mujiu hurriedly fled from Huayang Courtyard and walked quickly towards Qichi Courtyard.

When walking to the backyard, he passed the Mingxiang Courtyard where Du Ziheng lived. There were several medicine boys drying herbs at the door. These medicine boys were from the Night King's Mansion, not Du Ziheng's residence outside.

Therefore, among these, there is naturally no traitor that the emperor planted next to Du Ziheng, that is, the scheming young man nicknamed "Xiao Tiao".

Yun Mujiu withdrew his gaze, and when he returned to Qichiyuan, he went to the pharmacy to fiddle with it for a while, and then came back with a large pot of nutrient solution that had just been prepared from the doctor's system.

She turned around and went back into the greenhouse. While watering the herbs with nutrient solution, she couldn't help but recall the scenes of her time with the man last night and this morning.

As she continued thinking this way, she could feel that the slight soreness she had felt after waking up had disappeared. At the same time, another kind of electric shock-like tremor swept through her body, especially those parts that were massaged by Ye Xiaohan's big hands, her hands, shoulders, back, and legs...

It feels like numbness and fever...

"Princess, the prince is here." Fusang's soft voice came from outside the greenhouse.

Yun Mujiu's expression changed. Looking at the half-empty spray bottle in her hand, she realized that she had been in the greenhouse for quite some time.

She was almost done watering the nutrient solution, but that wasn't the point. The point was why Ye Xiaohan "chased" her to Qichiyuan? Could it be that Ye Xiaohan discovered that she was struggling with something?

Yun Mujiu didn't have time to put down the spray bottle. He walked to the door of the greenhouse and called out "Your Highness".

Ye Xiaohan glanced at Yun Mujiu and asked, "Are you busy?"

"Not busy." Yun Mujiu shook his head fiercely. "The prince is here to see me. How about we go sit in the main hall?"

Ye Xiaohan glanced at the flower room and said, "Why don't I accompany Mu Mu to work together?"

"Okay. It turns out that the prince designed this greenhouse for me, and I don't think I have taken him to see it in detail yet."

"It's okay. I saw him when I came to Sushi-in."

"Now I will take the prince in to see the newly planted herbs." Yun Mujiu felt that since Ye Xiaohan had seen the exterior of the greenhouse, he should also go in and take a closer look at the interior layout.

Large swathes of sunlight poured down through the glazed tiles on the top of the greenhouse, casting a dazzling glow on the large area of ​​sun-loving crops in the center of the greenhouse. As for the four corners of the greenhouse, there were some crops that did not like strong light.

There are many wooden racks in the greenhouse, on which are placed flower pots, wooden boxes, stone troughs and other containers, and many flowers and plants are planted in different categories. The room is bright, and the colorful and diverse flowers and plants look very beautiful.

Yun Mujiu took Ye Xiaohan around and made some introductions.

Her serious look gave off a convincing and safe aura. Ye Xiaohan stared at her tense face, his sword-like eyebrows slightly raised.

After a while, Yun Mujiu finished watering the nutrient solution in his hand, and during the process he politely declined the kind-hearted prince who wanted to help.

Afterwards, Yun Mujiu took out the planting record manual and added some of the latest record information to it in a timely manner.

After a cup of tea, she took Ye Xiaohan to view all the herbs in the greenhouse.

People who work hard always have a different kind of charm. As soon as Yun Mujiu gets into the working state, he will unconsciously discard many thoughts in his mind.

After leaving the greenhouse, looking at Ye Xiaohan's handsome face, the thoughts that had just been suppressed resurfaced in her mind.

"Your Majesty, I have a small question, may I ask it?"

"ask."

"Your Majesty, I forgot to ask you this morning. After a rest last night, I woke up with soreness in my body." Yun Mujiu looked directly at Ye Xiaohan and asked for an explanation - "Is it because my sleeping posture is too twisted, or did Your Majesty do something to me?"

Ye Xiaohan turned his eyes away and said calmly: "The princess knows the sleeping posture of the princess. Of course, I also know about it."

Yun Mujiu thought about it as soon as he heard it. Could it be that Ye Xiaohan meant to say: Big sister, please be more careful. Don’t you know how you usually sleep and what you do? And I, as a bystander, know it very well. Whether you know it yourself or others know it, you have nothing to blame.

At this time, the Night King only said a few words lightly, and Yun Mujiu, who already felt guilty about his "morality", started to imagine. In fact, the Night King never said such straightforward and down-to-earth rash words. Even if he really wanted to criticize someone, he would not use vulgar expressions as he was well-educated.

Yun Mujiu put down the spray bottle after he finished imagining. He twisted a white towel in his hands, not even bothering to wipe his hands. He bowed his head and admitted his mistake, "I'm sorry, Xiaoxiao, my sleeping posture is too indecent. Not only did I make myself sore, but I might even disturb your rest."

She raised her eyes and looked at the indifferent man eagerly.

"By the way, did you sleep well last night?"

"Not very good." Ye Xiaohan replied.

"Ah." Yun Mujiu understood again, showing a look of understanding. It seems that she has made Ye Xiaohan unable to sleep well. When she is asleep, she is really like a wild boar running around randomly. Whoever sleeps next to her will be unlucky.

Ye Xiaohan watched the changing expression on Yun Mujiu's face calmly, with a slight arc at the corner of his mouth. In fact, he couldn't sleep well not only because of Mujiu's noisy sleeping posture, but also because Wen Xiangruanyu took the initiative to run into his arms and cling to him.

How could he be like a saint, without any emotional fluctuations...

It was this woman who teased him first, but he couldn't remember anything. It was really a bit hateful. What was even more hateful was that she just teased him but nothing happened.

If he hadn't been feeling well lately, he would really like to...get rid of this bad woman who always teases him as soon as possible!

On the surface, Ye Xiaohan, who was in a state of mixed feelings, did not say much to Yun Mujiu, but there seemed to be a rare hint of tiredness between his brows, which made people feel distressed and pity.

Yun Mujiu looked at Ye Xiaohan with heartache and felt even more embarrassed.

She apologized and said, "Next time, I will pay more attention."

"Next time?" Ye Xiaohan raised his eyebrows.

"..." Yun Mujiu was stunned, not knowing how to answer. When she said "next time", didn't she mean to invite Ye Xiaohan to sleep with her?

"What I mean is, I don't want to disturb the prince's rest." Yun Mujiu could only utter these words.

"It's okay. I'll just bear with it." Ye Xiaohan said magnanimously.

"How about this, we should sleep in separate beds from now on. When I have adjusted my restless sleeping position, I will see His Majesty whether he or she should rest together?" Yun Mujiu finally came up with a solution, his big eyes sparkling.

"No." Ye Xiaohan rejected it without thinking. He reached out and touched Yun Mujiu's forehead, "What nonsense are you thinking about. You don't have to change your sleeping habits. And... you don't have to rest separately from me."

Don't always sleep in separate beds.

"Okay." Yun Mujiu also felt that the solution of cutting it off with a knife was too reckless. She had no idea how to solve it at the moment, so she could only say, "Let's talk about it another day."

Ye Xiaohan said "hmm" in a cold voice, looking aloof and arrogant. He would not tell Mu Jiu that there was another reason for Mu Jiu's body aches, which was that he hugged her too tightly. Just like the past few days, he stayed in Mu Jiu's bed every night, but unfortunately the dead woman who was sleeping soundly never noticed...
