The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Early in the morning, the atmosphere inside the Night King's Mansion was still calm, and everyone was busy with their daily affairs as usual.

Outside the Night King's Palace, many camps and factions were in turmoil.

First, the highlight of the incident between Prince Ye and Princess Ye at the Yuexi Palace Banquet was spread, and then the case related to the Judgment Yun Mansion, the Beihan Divine Doctor force represented by Divine Doctor Wu Mingwei, and Dudi Valley came to light.

In addition, the news that the fifth prince Ye Chuhe was cured of a strange disease by Princess Ye and rose again spread. People marveled that Princess Ye of Zhongyue was a fairy woman who had descended to the earth. Her superb medical skills were truly amazing.

In the Lanyue Palace, a man in a white robe stood in the yard, and the emerald green bamboo forest cast a shady area on the ground.

The man in white robe was thin, with an upright posture, a handsome face, and a pair of long, straight legs that attracted great attention.

A beautiful concubine walked gracefully to the back and called out kindly, "Chu He."

Ye Chuhe turned around and bowed to Concubine Yu and greeted her.

Mother and son briefly lamented Ye Chuhe's safe and sound condition. Not only had his life been saved, but all his ailments had been completely cured. Ye Chuhe's future was promising.

Ye Chuhe smiled gently, then his expression turned serious again. With Ye Xiaohan and Yun Mujiu's subtle reminders, Ye Chuhe mobilized all the power of himself and his grandfather's family to investigate the source of his illness, and eventually uncovered some truth.

First, Ye Chuhe was poisoned in the womb. It has now been clearly found that it was related to Concubine Liang and several concubines in the harem, and Concubine Liang was the mastermind.

During the period before and after Yun Mujiu treated Ye Chuhe, Concubine Liang's abnormal behavior was real. When Ye Chuhe was recuperating in Qingxuan Palace, she quietly tried to order a group of secret guards to enter the palace, but unfortunately they were blocked by the tightly guarded guards.

Secondly, when Ye Chuhe continued his investigation, he discovered some deeper abnormalities. The Nantai poison he was infected with was actually related to the Queen!

The Empress clearly didn't care much about his life or death. However, during the period before, during, and after Yun Mujiu's treatment, she was clearly a bit panicked. Furthermore, like Concubine Liang, the Empress had also sent secret guards to try to infiltrate Qingxuan Palace, but they were unable to find out anything.

By the time Ye Chuhe left the palace to attend the Yuexi Palace Banquet, he had already passed the critical recovery period of his treatment. And since he was in good condition, he wouldn't be easily murdered. In other words, Ye Chuhe was now completely well, and no one could touch him!

The wind rustled the bamboo leaves. Ye Chuhe collected his thoughts and said to Concubine Yu, "Continue the investigation. We cannot tolerate those who plotted to murder us, mother and son, like Concubine Liang and Empress Dowager."

Concubine Yu's beautiful eyes were filled with anger as she nodded heavily, already plotting how she would antagonize Concubine Liang and the Empress in the future. She had been secretly engaging Chu He's forces in a confrontation with the Empress's forces for the past few days, and the conflict between Chu He and the Crown Prince's factions was about to become even more intense and sharp.

What Concubine Yu and her son didn't know was that the tit-for-tat situation between them and the Queen and the Crown Prince was also under the control of the Night King who was strategizing.

...

Before noon, the roads in front of the Jingzhao government office were already crowded with people who wanted to watch the trial. Even the spacious gates of the government office were so crowded that there was no room to stand.

Zongquan sent out some yamen runners to maintain order.

Afterwards, a large group of royal relatives suddenly arrived, including the Seventh Prince Ye Chufeng, the Fifth Prince Ye Chuhe, the Third Prince Ye Chudi, and the Crown Prince Ye Chuao.

Even people from other countries came, and Prince Gu and Prince Sen of Nantai were able to go out for a walk under the "escort" of the imperial guards.

Strictly speaking, the case being judged today had nothing to do with these members of the royal family, but if these important figures wanted to observe the trial, Zong Quan couldn't turn them away. Furthermore, countless ordinary people gathered at the gates of the yamen, just to watch the excitement. Since ordinary people were allowed to observe from outside, could the people of Jingzhao Prefecture not treat their distinguished guests well?

After Zongquan saluted the royal family members, he politely asked them to sit in the spectator seats on both sides.

In addition, other parties involved in the case arrived, including Du Ziheng and a group of people from Duti Valley, represented by Du Guzhu.

Then, a group of people from the Beihan team arrived. The people in this team had different identities and they had some relationship with the Beihan Divine Doctor team that was imprisoned, so they had to come and take a look.

Then, Princess Manji and Princess Liyi arrived with the Northern Han envoys. Although the cases of these Northern Han people seemed to have nothing to do with them, they were all from Northern Han, and the cases were related to Northern Han, so they had to come and take a look.

The common people looked at the grand lineup and talked about it. They were surprised that so many important people were present, and they wondered in their hearts whether Prince Ye and Princess Ye would show up.

Although the three cases judged today were proposed by Prince Ye and Princess Ye, either the case of Ruyun Mansion had been almost concluded, or the cases of Divine Doctor Beihan and Dudigu had little to do with them.

Therefore, Prince Ye and Princess Ye should not appear unless it is absolutely necessary.

However, Ye Xiaohan and Yun Mujiu have always been the focus of public attention, and their whereabouts have touched the hearts of countless people. Honestly, if it weren't for the possibility that King Ye and his wife might appear at the Jingzhao government office today, there wouldn't necessarily be so many people gathered here.

The reason the Crown Prince and his royal family came here to listen was more to see Ye Xiaohan and Yun Mujiu appear. Without notifying each other in advance, they arrived at the government office one after another tacitly.

The noise coming from the crowd outside the door continued, and Zong Quan in the hall frowned slightly. He raised the gavel in his hand and slammed it on the table. "Bang!"

Zong Quan shouted loudly: "Silence!"

The two rows of officers standing in the hall shouted in unison: "Mighty... Powerful!"

The surroundings suddenly fell silent, and even the streets farther away gradually became quiet.

A fat jailer beside Zong Quan shouted, "The trial has officially begun!"

Zong Quan frowned and ordered, "Call the prisoner!"

The officers standing in the hall had serious expressions on their faces, and shouted in unison, "Mighty... Powerful!"

The curtain of the side hall was drawn aside, and a group of officials appeared, escorting a group of criminals. These people were wearing prison uniforms and knelt one by one.

Zong Quan looked at the two prisoners kneeling in the front, who should be the first to be tried.

He shouted, "Who is this person in the hall?"

"I'm Yun Boliang." Yun Boliang replied with trembling lips.

"I am Ye Qingyan." Ye was shaking like a sieve.

Zong Quan raised the corner of his lips, his expression calm. At this moment, a loud voice came from outside the hall, "Prince Ye has arrived, Princess Ye has arrived!"

Everyone was in an uproar. Were Prince Ye and Princess Ye planning to personally attend the hearing?!

Zong Quan stood up immediately, and the princes and spectators on both sides of the hall all looked outside. The prisoners kneeling on the ground trembled and dared not turn their heads to look outside.

Amidst the loud shouts and cheers of the people outside the hall, Ye Xiaohan and Yun Mujiu appeared before everyone's eyes with graceful demeanor, like gods descending from heaven...
