The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Yun Mujiu from Qichiyuan was still wiping her wet long hair. She had been wiping for a long time, but her hair was still not completely dry.

Yun Mujiu sighed, thinking of the convenient life in modern times, and said with emotion: It would be great if there was a hair dryer here too!

She was very tired, but not sleepy at all.

Looking at her hair that was almost dry, she suddenly thought: Let's go out for a walk. I can't sleep anyway.

There was no maid on night watch outside Yun Mujiu's room. Everyone was tired today, so she let them go downstairs to rest.

After putting on her clothes, she picked up a jade hairpin with a Ganoderma lucidum bamboo pattern and tied up some of her hair.

Yun Mujiu walked out of the room and looked up at the sky.

The moonlight was good, and she could see the road clearly with the help of it. In addition, she had good eyesight, so she didn't need to carry a small lantern for lighting.

The lights in all the rooms of Qichiyuan were off, and everyone should have fallen asleep and dreamed.

There was a large empty flat area in the courtyard, and Yun Mujiu was walking slowly by herself. When she reached the gate of the courtyard, she suddenly heard a very light sound of footsteps.

Yun Mujiu stopped and listened carefully.

“Rustle…rustle…”

Sure enough, there was someone walking.

Yun Mujiu moved carefully, took a few big steps on tiptoe, and hid behind the wall at the entrance of the yard with his back crouched.

She tilted her head and looked outside carefully. A figure appeared in the distance. The person was wearing a gray cloak and a hood on his head.

Yun Mujiu blinked, the figure seemed a little familiar.

The Qichiyuan where she lived was very remote, near the back door of the Ye Mansion. The Ye Mansion was at a critical juncture and could not afford any mistakes. Suddenly there was only one person walking on the road at night so late, could there be something secret?

Yun Mujiu didn't have time to think about it and could only follow the man.

She controlled the pace just right, staying far enough away from the man so as not to be discovered, but also not to lose sight of him.

The man seemed not familiar with the route of the Ye Mansion, and would stop to think at some intersections. Yun Mujiu followed the man for a long time and saw that he was heading for the back door of the Ye Mansion.

Yun Mujiu wanted to report the news, but was afraid of missing the man's actions. The best way was to follow him first and get more information so that he could prepare for the next step.

Sure enough, the man stopped near the back door of Ye Mansion.

Yun Mujiu held her breath, quietly walked forward, and followed closely behind the cloaked man. She opened her palm and took out several flying knives from the space in an instant.

There were patrolling guards in the Ye Mansion, but the cloaked man did not encounter any guards along the way.

This means that he is familiar with the guards' patrol time and corresponding patrol routes, and this person is from the Ye Mansion.

Yun Mujiu frowned. Could it be Doctor Wu or Wu Mingwei?

The row of guards guarding the back door noticed the movement, and the chief guard asked in a deep voice: "Who!"

The guards all drew their swords and became alert.

The captain of the guards rushed towards the cloaked man with a sword in hand, and the cloaked man raised his hand and lifted the hood of his cloak.

This person had a simple bun on her head, with her long black hair hanging down.

Yun Mujiu opened his eyes wide. It was Wu Mingwei!

The captain of the guards recognized Wu Mingwei and retracted the sword in his hand in time.

He asked seriously, "Miss Wu, what are you doing here?"

Wu Mingwei said in a cold voice: "I'm waiting for the prince's medicine to come back."

The chief guard had an awkward look on his face. He had not known in advance that Wu Mingwei was coming to inspect the newly arrived medicinal herbs. Then, he said sternly:

"Miss Wu, the Ye Mansion has its own rules. Please cooperate with us and go back to rest."

Several guards also came up, looking like they were going to forcibly escort Wu Mingwei back.

Yun Mujiu was stunned. No one had said that Wu Mingwei would come to check and examine the newly arrived medicinal materials.

Wei Song is responsible for purchasing some medicinal materials. He will bring a few people who understand pharmacology with him, and they will all select good medicinal materials.

No matter what, it would not be necessary to buy the herbs and then ask Wu Mingwei, a girl, to wait at the back door in the middle of the night and check them.

During the treatment of Ye Xiaohan, it was Yun Mujiu and Doctor Wu who checked the medicinal materials, and it was not Wu Mingwei's turn to check.

Wu Mingwei refused to leave and insisted, "I don't trust others, I want to come and check the herbs myself."

The captain of the guards will not indulge Wu Mingwei. If he does not do his job well, he will be punished by military law by the prince.

The captain of the guards had a cold face and was about to drive Wu Mingwei away.

"Wait! It's me!"

The guards recognized the voice as Wei Song's.

In the blink of an eye, several men in black appeared on the wall behind the Ye Mansion's back door and then jumped down.

The leading man in black took off his black veil, revealing a resolute and rough face. He was holding a black package in his left hand.

The other five men in black were also holding a black package in their hands. The items inside the package were visible through the black cloth, and they seemed to be small boxes.

Yun Mujiu looked at the movements of the men in black, which were very fast and made almost no sound. He knew that they were very good at light work and had deep internal strength. They were all rare masters.

So the packages they packaged were medicinal herbs packed in wooden boxes.

Wu Mingwei's eyes lit up, and she said to Wei Song: "Wei Song, I have been waiting for you for a long time."

Wei Song's eyes flashed with nervousness and indifference, and he asked, "Miss Wu, what are you doing?"

"I'm worried about your purchase of medicinal materials, and I'm afraid there will be changes, so I'll be waiting for you at the back door in advance. If the medicinal materials are not right or suitable, I can quickly discover the problem and re-purchase them in time."

"No need to trouble you, Miss Wu." He looked at Wu Mingwei's expectant eyes and explained, "We are very careful and cautious in our work, and some of us know about medicinal materials. The medicine pavilion doesn't know who we are, and they can't do anything about what we want to do with the medicine."

Wu Mingwei pursed her lips tightly, with a disappointed expression on her face. She was really worried that something might happen to the remaining medicinal materials needed for the medicinal bath, so she planned to come and check it out in person. If the prince later learned of her good intentions, he might be moved and touched by her sincerity, right?

Wei Song rarely saw Wu Mingwei frustrated, and he felt like something was missing in his heart. He frowned, not knowing what to do for a moment.

Doctor Wu and his daughter were famous for their excellent medical skills. They had practiced medicine in the Jinxiang Guard for a period of time, and then treated the prince in the Ye Mansion for a period of time. The two did not do anything bad, and the prince's condition was gradually improving.

Judging from these, Doctor Wu and his daughter are not bad people. If they wanted to deal with the prince, they should have done it long ago. Why wait until now?

Wei Song lowered his head and glanced at the package in his hand. He just asked her to check it. There shouldn't be any tampering, right?

The princess also checked other medicinal herbs today, and they sent someone to check before buying new herbs tonight. Now they asked Miss Wu Mingwei to check them again, which would provide double assurance and be more reliable.

Wei Song's brain twitched, his nerves relaxed, and he wanted to speak.

Yun Mujiu, who was in the dark, knew what had happened and quickly jumped out.

"No!"

She walked out from the shadow of a rockery, and in an instant the moonlight shone on her, giving her a layer of soft glow.
