The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Yun Mujiu carried the medicine box and went to other wards to see a few patients. When he came out under the eaves, it started to drizzle again.

A small group of patients and subordinates from the other hospital surrounded Yun Mujiu, wanting to come forward and talk to him but looking timid.

Yun Mujiu smiled gently, turned around and started chatting with everyone, looking very friendly and gentle.

At this time, in the drizzle, a small group of people holding oil-paper umbrellas appeared in the yard.

Yun Mujiu looked over and the first thing he saw was a tall figure.

It was Ye Xiaohan. He actually came to pick her up.

This gave her a sense of warmth, like being picked up by her family after get off work. In her previous life, she had worked alone for a long time, and no one had ever given her the warmth of home, nor had anyone ever waited for her to get off work and pick her up.

"Prince, you are here!" Yun Mujiu smiled like a child, trotted over, and dived into someone's chest.

In a corner under the eaves, Yun Shirou sat in a wheelchair, staring resentfully at the couple sharing an umbrella in the rain. Why did Yun Mujiu have all the good things? Why did Yun Shirou's schemes end in nothing?

Yun Mujiu had no time to care about what others thought, and she had no intention of locking Yun Shirou up and preventing her from seeing her and Ye Xiaohan.

She took Ye Xiaohan and spoke briefly to the subordinates in the other courtyard, then turned around and left with Ye Xiaohan's arm around her.

In fact, in her heart, Yun Shirou was nothing at all, and she didn't need to take Yun Shirou seriously at all.

...

In the Qichi Courtyard of the Night Prince's Mansion, Yun Mujiu rarely invited His Royal Highness the Night Prince to stay for a while, but a man who seemed to be unromantic declined.

His Royal Highness the Night King said that he had official business to attend to and could not stay any longer.

Yun Mujiu smiled lightly and no longer tried to keep anyone.

It seems that Ye Xiaohan is really a straight man! She originally thought that Ye Xiaohan was about to leave the capital, and she and Ye Xiaohan were in good health during this period, and while they both had free time, they could spend some time together and cultivate a close relationship.

On second thought, she sympathetically thought: Perhaps Ye Xiaohan is really very busy! In the army, in the court, there is no important matter that is not waiting for Ye Xiaohan to deal with. Zhongyue will soon be in turmoil!

...

What Yun Mujiu didn't know was that His Royal Highness the Night King was not unromantic. He certainly wanted to stay and develop a deeper relationship with Yun Mujiu.

However, he could not stay.

Ye Xiaohan didn't tell anyone that his body had been in a crisis situation that had often accompanied him for many years, and he couldn't let anyone notice that there were any signs of trouble in his body.

He had undergone two transformations in the past few months, the most notable being the last one, which occurred in the gardens near Mushi, even without a blood moon. He had subsequently suffered a combined attack by Haolian Di and other assassin organizations and factions, but those attacks were not a cause for concern; his deterioration was due to his own condition.

Late last winter, he experienced a blood moon in the Night King's Palace. This summer, he experienced a blood moon while strangling a foreign spy in the north. Recently, he had inexplicably transformed in the Mushi Gardens. He returned to Mushi to recuperate for a few days. On the evening he left Mushi, he realized that his body was actually declining, just like the ever-decreasing scorching sun.

However, he also knew that his poor health was not a serious condition, but only temporary, and he would gradually get better over time.

It’s just that during this period when he was the regent of Zhongyue, his physical condition was not at its best.

It just means that he doesn't have more energy and blood to transform into the Ninth Level of the Netherworld and maintain the other appearance of the Ninth Level of the Netherworld.

This is why Yun Mujiu, in his Netherworld Nineth Layer incarnation, didn't linger too long when he went to the suburban cave to fetch supplies. If he stayed in his transformation for too long, he might not be able to maintain his demonic appearance.

Netherworld Nine's body, pupils, the lotus between the eyebrows, and even other external features of the body, all require internal strength and vitality to maintain.

These self-inflicted alter egos were precisely the reason why no one, including Yun Mujiu, could possibly imagine that the Lord of Hell and the Night King were one and the same. The Night King had completely changed his appearance, becoming another demonic figure who was in no way recognizable as himself.

A stormy night, a quiet moment.

Ye Xiaohan stood in front of the carved window coffin that was being beaten by wind and rain. His handsome face was full of coldness, making it impossible to tell what he was feeling.

He raised his lips slightly and said to himself, "Silly girl, it's not that I don't want to stay overnight, but I don't want you to worry."

In reality, the silly girl's deduction was correct; he indeed possessed two identities. One was the Netherworld Nineth Layer in his normal state, and the other was the Netherworld Nineth Layer in his diseased state. The silly girl naturally assumed that these were his two personalities. Little did she know a more nuanced secret: the Netherworld Nineth Layer in his normal state was actually himself, Zhongyue's regent, Ye Xiaohan.

In other words, Yun Mujiu has not yet guessed the most crucial point.

That is, Ye Xiaohan and Netherworld Nine are two identities, two different personalities.

The so-called split personality means that he split into two identities, Ye Xiaohan and Youming Jiuchong, rather than Youming Jiuchong splitting into two Youming Jiuchong in different states.
