The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Chapter 1229: Disharmony, the princes bickering

Faced with the teasing, ridicule and sarcasm of the crowd, Yun Xiang was speechless and did not dare to mention Miss Hongzhu, whom he had pursued so hard but could not get. Moreover, because of his affair with Hongzhu, he was ridiculed and insulted by countless people in the capital.

Everyone laughed: "Looks like he really was dumped." Someone else laughed and said: "Is Yun Xiang a bad luck for wives? From Mrs. Meng and Mrs. Ye to Miss Hong now, it seems that no woman has not been unlucky after meeting Yun Xiang."

A man who is unlucky in marriage is not to be had!

At this moment, Yun Mujiu's uncle, Meng Shihao, suddenly appeared and said, "He is unlucky not only with his wife, but also with his daughters. Our Mujiu has been happy and content since leaving the Yun Mansion. It's hard to believe she suffered so much injustice and torture in the Yun Mansion before."

So, Meng Shihao and a group of civil and military ministers stood on the steps and began to point fingers at Yun Xiang.

Ye Xiaohan, who was not far away, looked up, saw this side out of the corner of his eye, and then retracted his gaze.

At the same time, news of the Night King's spectacular appearance at the morning court was spreading...

Ye Xiaohan and a few of his confidants walked towards the palace gate. During the walk, the Seventh Prince came over and chatted with them for a few minutes, then took his leave.

Ye Xiaohan and his group left at a leisurely pace under the occasional gaze of the crowd.

At the palace gate, there was a gorgeous carriage pulled by four precious horses. It was obvious that it was a grand treatment that only the Regent Zhongyue could have.

The officials looked over and saw a woman in a pink dress standing beside the car, smiling faintly at the approaching Night King.

Everyone couldn't help but sigh inwardly: "Oh my! The Night King and his wife have such a good relationship. The Night King rarely comes to the morning court, and the Night King's wife actually comes to take the Night King back. Why don't they treat them so considerately?"

Yun Mujiu saw Ye Xiaohan and then greeted Meng Shihao who came later. Meng Shihao had his own carriage and insisted on not riding in the imperial carriage with the couple, but in his own carriage.

Yun Mujiu did not force it, and got on the imperial carriage with Ye Xiaohan, and then left with Meng Shihao's carriage. At this time, the crowd of onlookers realized that the Night King was going to accompany the Night Princess to visit relatives at the Mengguo Mansion!

The Crown Prince stood surrounded by several members of the Jing family, gazing intently at the direction Ye Xiaohan and Yun Mujiu had left. His heart ached. Originally, all of this should have belonged to him...

If she married Yun Mujiu, all the help Yun Mujiu had brought to Emperor Ye would be returned to him. He would have a wife who was as beautiful as a flower, multi-talented, and helpful to his career. It was a real bargain!

"What is your Highness looking at?"

The prince turned around suddenly and saw Ye Chufeng with a smile on his face.

"What I see is none of your business!"

"I'm just asking why the Crown Prince is so angry." Ye Chufeng smiled thinly, then asked, "Could it be that the Crown Prince is remembering that when the Empress came to the palace to express her gratitude after her wedding, the Crown Prince was scolded by the Empress at the palace gate for not knowing etiquette?"

"Hmph!" The prince was unwilling to admit the truth of what Ye Chufeng said and sneered, "Ye Chufeng, you are the lowly son of a musician. Even if your eyesight is healed, so what! Ye Chufeng, someone with your background cannot compare to me."

Facing the prince's ridicule and mockery, Ye Chufeng didn't care at all. He nodded slightly and said, "I come from a humble background and have nothing." So no matter what others said about him, he didn't care. He had long been used to it.

Seeing that Ye Chufeng was not angry, the prince rolled his eyes, flicked his sleeves, and stomped his feet away.

"Seventh brother is really patient." King Di, dressed in a martial arts robe, appeared behind Ye Chufeng at some point.

"No, no, third brother, you are too kind." Ye Chufeng looked back, pretending not to understand King Di's malicious ridicule of the forbearance he showed when facing the prince, and his peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly.

"Third brother's martial arts are good. Even I, your younger brother, can't hear his footsteps anymore."

“Hehe…” Prince Di pretended not to understand the hint of coldness in Ye Chufeng’s words and smiled slightly, but his smile was extremely stiff.

He paused, leaned forward, and stared at Ye Chufeng's peach blossom eyes with his narrow and sharp eyes.

"So, your eyes have been healed for a long time." The last time he ran into Ye Chufeng outside the palace, he found out that Ye Chufeng's eye disease had not healed at all.

"Third brother is in the Northern Territory all year round. How could he know the situation of his younger brothers in time?" Ye Chufeng did not mention at all that he had intentionally concealed King Di's actions, but just found an excuse for King Di.

"I will go home more often from now on." King Di sneered.

"Oh? Then I'm really looking forward to it." Ye Chufeng stared at King Di's angry eyes and said with a smile, "I was just worried that no one would drink with me."

King Di snorted coldly, no longer paying attention to Ye Chufeng, and strode away in a hurry.

Ye Chufeng smiled softly, a smile that carried a hint of relief and a hint of pride. Did his so-called brothers really think he would be as cowardly and incompetent as before?

...

In front of the gate of Duke Meng's mansion, Duke Meng, Meng Ninglang, Yi, and the servants were standing at the door, seemingly waiting for someone to arrive.

Some onlookers also gathered on the surrounding streets, looking over here eagerly.

Soon, a brown carriage arrived at the gate, followed by a luxurious royal carriage.

It was not until they saw the people getting off the car that the people realized that the Meng family was waiting for the arrival of King Ye and his wife.

Seeing Ye Xiaohan's considerate manner in helping Yun Mujiu get out of the carriage, and his polite greetings to Duke Meng, everyone sighed in their hearts: Princess Ye has truly found a good husband! Duke Meng is also so lucky to have such an outstanding grandson-in-law!

At this moment, everyone recalled the several times Ye Xiaohan had accompanied Yun Mujiu back to the Mengguo Mansion. Thinking back to the news that Ye Wang's leg had healed in the past two days, they couldn't help but sigh: "So Ye Wang had recovered long ago and had been in contact with people in the Mengguo Mansion for a long time." Ye Wang Mansion and Mengguo Duchy were one and the same.

After Yun Mujiu and Ye Xiaohan entered the mansion, they first went to the Buddhist temple to burn incense for Meng. Yun Mujiu then said some sincere words of worship, such as that the daughter is living a good life now and has a husband who treats her sincerely, that her grandfather, uncle and aunt Ning Lang are all doing well, and that the daughter will protect the people around her.

Ye Xiaohan inserted a stick of incense into the incense burner and said, "I will take good care of Mu Jiu."

Duke Meng was leaning on a cane, looking at his grandson-in-law. The more he looked at him, the more he liked him, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.

When he first learned that Yun Mujiu was being betrothed to Ye Xiaohan, he wanted to stop it but was powerless. At the time, he was still far away in the southern frontier. By the time he learned of Mujiu's marriage, it was already a done deal and could not be changed. Later, after returning to the capital, his impression of the Night King gradually changed during his few interactions with Ye Xiaohan. Seeing the affection between Ye Xiaohan and Yun Mujiu, his uneasy heart was finally at ease.

His only daughter married the wrong man and lost her life and entire life.

Now, his only granddaughter has met the right man and married the right person. She will have someone to rely on for the rest of her life. What's more, even if Mu Jiu is alone, he believes that the capable Mu Jiu will take care of herself and live a good life.

Duke Meng thought so and expressed his true feelings to the couple in front of him.

Yun Mujiu's heart skipped a beat, and her eyes reddened slightly. Perhaps it was because she had never felt the affection and care of her family in her previous life, and now she had the opportunity to feel it, her little heart was immediately touched by her sensitive and emotional nerves.

Ye Xiaohan listened to Duke Meng's words and said nothing, but tightened his grip on Yun Mujiu's arm...
