The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

A crisp sound came from inside the house.

"All right."

The door was opened from the inside with a clang, and the sunlight outside poured in.

Ye Xiaohan's eyes suddenly lit up, and his obsidian eyes stared straight at the person who appeared in the light and shadow.

This stunningly beautiful woman was wearing a wide-sleeved embroidered phoenix-resting dress. The hem of the skirt was embroidered with a lifelike image of a phoenix resting. The layers of tulle on the skirt sparkled and were dazzling under the light.

When I glanced at it, I saw that the colorful silk embroidery on the skirt seemed to be moving, shining like a phoenix rising from the ashes, and it was extremely beautiful.

The dress is beautiful, but the person is even more beautiful. Yun Mujiu, wearing a light and light makeup, uses her unique appearance and temperament to give the clothes their own unique highlights and characteristics.

Ye Xiaohan didn't say anything, but stretched out a slender hand like white jade.

Yun Mujiu curled her lips into a smile, reached out her white hand, and held the back of Ye Xiaohan's hand firmly.

Outside Yun Mujiu's bedroom, a large crowd gasped in amazement at the princess's appearance today. Normally, the princess dressed rather simply, but today, in her formal attire, she looked like a completely different person. Her innate elegance and grace became even more calm and intense.

Ye Xiaohan held Yun Mujiu's arm and helped her into the sedan chair. Yun Mujiu had to go to the palace to attend the banquet today, so she had to walk a lot, so she tried to walk as little as possible. So, Yun Mujiu and Ye Xiaohan both rode the sedan chair to the front courtyard, then took the imperial carriage to enter the palace.

Arriving at the main gate of the Ye Palace, Ye Xiaohan personally helped Yun Mujiu out of the sedan chair. At the gate of the Ye Palace, two magnificent imperial carriages were parked.

Today, the palace hosted a Moonlit Night Banquet, but the afternoon banquet was held in separate venues, with male and female guests occupying separate spaces. The men chatted with Emperor Haolian about state affairs and official business, while the women attended a flower-viewing banquet hosted by the Empress in the Imperial Gardens. Later in the evening, the men and women would reunite for the Moonlit Night banquet.

So, although Ye Xiaohan and Yun Mujiu set out on the same route, they still had to act separately when they arrived at the palace gate.

Ye Xiaohan had two carriages prepared, one for him and one for Yun Mujiu, but he took Yun Mujiu's hand and got on the same carriage. With a flick of his hand, he told Fusang, Suixi, Wei Bai, Wei Song, and Du Ziheng to take the other imperial carriage.

Inside the carriage, Ye Xiaohan looked at Yun Mujiu and asked, "Are you ready?"

Yun Mujiu knew what Ye Xiaohan was talking about. He was simply asking her if she was ready for what to do next at the Yuexi Palace Banquet.

She smiled and nodded, "I should have prepared everything that needs to be prepared. As for other things that I haven't prepared in advance, I'll just deal with them when the time comes." At a banquet, there will always be people who intentionally or unintentionally create some surprises.

Ye Xiaohan curled the corners of his lips and gently patted the back of Yun Mujiu's smooth and tender hand.

"And this king is here."

"Yes. I know. If necessary, I will have to ask His Majesty the Night King to help me." Yun Mujiu smiled gently and rubbed Ye Xiaohan's shoulder carefully with her head.

"My Lord, is there something you forgot to tell me?"

Ye Xiaohan fell into deep thought, and Yun Mujiu said again: "Your Highness looks very handsome and majestic today, full of handsomeness."

Ye Xiaohan raised his eyebrows and realized what Yun Mujiu wanted to say.

He curled his lips and said, "The princess's voice, appearance and smile have been engraved in my heart."

Yun Mujiu smiled. Ye Xiaohan's words were truly complimentary. He didn't praise her beauty, but instead praised her outfit for today, which left a lasting impression on him. It had to be said that even if His Majesty the Night King didn't praise her, his words were incredibly moving.

There were two palace carriages heading towards the palace gate of Prince Ye's Mansion. When they were almost at the palace gate, the two separated. Ye Xiaohan first took the carriage to the Xuanwu Gate, and then went to the hall where the men's guests met. Yun Mujiu went to the Huaqing Gate to enter the inner court, and then went to the Imperial Garden.

Male and female guests entered the inner court through the palace gate separately. Yun Mujiu arrived at the Huaqing Gate, which was reserved for female guests.

She lifted the curtain to look, and saw a long line in the distance.

Her status was quite significant to Zhongyue Wang Chao, so she didn't need to dismount and join the crowd. She could simply wait until her turn arrived. Besides, she didn't enjoy joining in the crowds and squeezing in with strangers. Furthermore, with her prominent status, going down would likely cause a stir and chaos, which wouldn't be appropriate.

So, Yun Mujiu's luxurious bus was parked obediently at the back. Although Yun Mujiu was safe, some people became jealous.

The ladies and young ladies from other provinces looked at the imperial carriage and began to comment on it.

"Who is this? Why is he so arrogant?"

Yun Mujiu complained in his heart: It's just a carriage pulled by two horses, not eight horses, with a hundred people leading the way. How can it be a big deal?

"Oh my god, this is the first time I've seen such a luxurious carriage! The people in the capital city live such a magnificent life! Look, why are there moon-white night pearls inlaid on the roof? How precious!"

Yun Mujiu complained inwardly, "These things are plentiful in the palace. They're not particularly expensive. Even some families in the capital can afford them. Some of you who have high-ranking officials in your families, don't you have salaries? Why are you pretending?"

Not long after they left, those people from other provinces started chattering, expressing strong envy, jealousy and hatred towards Yun Mujiu's imperial carriage and treatment.

They first wondered if it was the Grand Princess's carriage. But then they remembered that the Grand Princess had been deposed, and there was no such person as Princess Gaoyang.

Then, someone speculated that it might be Princess Ji Ling's carriage. However, considering Princess Ji Ling's power and status, it would be difficult for her to afford such a gorgeous imperial carriage.

Someone else speculated, "Could it be the carriage of the two princesses of Beihan?"

At this time, the ladies and young ladies in the capital were finally able to interrupt, and those who were attentive looked carefully and were amazed.

"This seems to be the palace carriage of the Night King's Palace, right?"

People from other provinces sighed, "The Night King's Mansion! Could it be that Lord Ye is in there?" They heard that Lord Ye had recovered a long time ago and they had never had the chance to see him. Could it be that now they have the chance to see Lord Ye in person?

Faced with the outsiders' petty calculations, coupled with their somewhat reckless and offensive behavior, some ladies in the capital could not help but laugh at them: "What are you thinking! The Night King didn't enter the palace through this door! The person inside should be the Night King's Consort."

At this time, some ladies and young ladies from other provinces began to speak sourly again.

"Princess Ye, what a privilege."

"I have privileges, so what?" A cold voice came slowly.

Everyone's expression changed slightly, and they saw the curtain of the gorgeous palace carriage being opened, revealing a peerless face by the window.

Everyone gasped, and those from other provinces were even more shocked. They had long heard that Princess Ye had regained her beauty after marrying Prince Ye, and that her face was simply breathtakingly beautiful, unparalleled in the world. Seeing her today, it was indeed true!

Yun Mujiu was imposing without being angry, with a faint smile on her lips, and said confidently: "This princess is the princess of the first rank, so naturally I have privileges."

With a fierce glance, he said, "Who has any objections? Stand up for me, my princess!"
