The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

The rain only lasted all night and stopped early the next morning.

There are people in the Night King's Palace who are good at observing astronomical phenomena. They say that the weather has been clear these days, but on the day of the palace banquet, there is a high possibility of abnormal weather, especially wind and rain.

Yun Mujiu understood what Ye Xiaohan meant by "the rain is getting heavier". On the one hand, the rain is getting heavier, each one more violent than the last. On the other hand, the "rain" of the situation will become more and more violent.

This morning, Ye Xiaohan did not attend the morning court, but went to meet some generals outside the Ye Palace.

Yun Mujiu thought about how she met Youming Jiuchong by chance when she went to the suburbs to get supplies, and she also thought about how there had been no news about Youming Jiuchong recently. Then she remembered that she had gone to Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion some time ago to find out Youming Jiuchong's personal information.

She called Fusang and the two of them disguised themselves and headed to Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion.

Yun Mujiu transformed into "Miss Teng" that day, with a thick veil covering her face and bangs covering her dark eyebrows, leaving only a pair of big grape-like eyes visible.

Yun Mujiu saw the waiter who had warmly entertained her before, and waved her hand and gave the waiter a large piece of silver as a reward.

The waiter invited Yun Mujiu into the inner hall for tea, and happily said that their manager Lu had returned to the attic a long time ago, and he also conveyed to Manager Lu the task that Yun Mujiu wanted to create a batch of hidden weapons.

This time, Yun Mujiu met Manager Lu, the special envoy from the headquarters of Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion.

Manager Lu was a middle-aged man with an honest and serious face. He met Yun Mujiu in a neither humble nor arrogant manner. When he saw the exquisite drawings provided by Yun Mujiu, he immediately became restless.

This was the first time in his life that he had seen such exquisite and unusual hidden weapon drawings.

Yun Mujiu acted boldly and paid a large deposit on the spot, asking Manager Lu to personally supervise the creation of the hidden weapon.

Manager Lu naturally agreed happily. Yun Mujiu expressed in the conversation that this was his first time to place an order at Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion and he was a little curious about Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion.

Of course, she did not forget the purpose of her coming here, and secretly inquired about the information of the Ninth Level of the Netherworld from the side.

However, this Netherworld Nineth Level is very smart, and his subordinates are also very smart.

Manager Lu didn't reveal any useful information at all, but he did confirm a piece of news that was widely circulated in the underworld on the spot.

"Our Pavilion Master has been busy with too many things lately. Now he's going to disappear, and we don't know when he'll reappear."

Yun Mujiu replied a few words out of curiosity, and before leaving, he revealed another piece of information about his fabricated identity.

She was from outside the capital and had just returned to the capital. She had a collection of fine medicines, including some that were said to be effective in treating mental illnesses.

As expected, Manager Lu immediately called out to Yun Mujiu.

"Ms. Teng, could you please sell us some medicine?"

"Oh, is Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion also short of medicine?" Yun Mujiu pretended to be surprised.

"Yes. We have a large staff and a great demand for various medicines." Manager Lu admitted it straightforwardly without any ambiguity.

Yun Mujiu asked in embarrassment, "So what kind of medicine do you want? You all need to tell me so that I can prepare it. Because these medicines were originally prepared for others, if I suddenly provide them to others now, I need to make some corresponding preparations. So you must tell me some details so that I can make a better decision."

Manager Lu looked conflicted. After a moment, he simply said, "We want all the medicine you have. Please provide us with a batch of all kinds of medicine."

Yun Mujiu and Manager Lu tried to evade the request, but ultimately agreed. She would prepare the medicine soon and send someone to deliver it to Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion.

As soon as Yun Mujiu left, Steward Lu sent someone to investigate her background. Sure enough, they discovered that some wealthy families had moved here from other places a few years ago, but they had kept a low profile and had little presence. Among them was a Miss Teng, whose personal information matched that of the young lady in question.

Manager Lu stopped investigating at this point, not knowing that Yun Mujiu had someone confirm her fake identity long ago.

As Xianggen Pavilion grew stronger, Yun Mujiu's power continued to expand, even though there was still a significant gap between her and established assassin organizations like Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion. However, she had caught Manager Lu off guard today, and she hadn't behaved abnormally from beginning to end. Ultimately, Manager Lu was anxious to buy her things, and had no time to investigate Yun Mujiu's identity.

After going to Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion today, Yun Mujiu achieved some of his goals.

First, to find out information about the Ninth Layer of the Netherworld. Although there wasn't much useful information...

The news about Youming Jiuchong's illness was extremely obscure, so Manager Lu and the other Mushi people kept their mouths shut and refused to leak any information about Youming Jiuchong's physical condition.

Another piece of news is that the Ninth Level of the Netherworld will disappear for a long time.

Secondly, Yun Mujiu cleverly made Manager Lu interested in the medicine in his hands, which indirectly gave Youming Jiuchong the opportunity to use the treatment medicine that Yun Mujiu secretly prepared.

Regardless, Yun Mujiu had at least provided Nether Nine's subordinates with some medication for schizophrenia. If Nether Nine needed it in the future, his subordinates would naturally provide it.

That afternoon, Yun Mujiu prepared a batch of medicines, including a batch of medicines for treating mental illnesses, which were classified more finely, so that people who were addicted could use them according to their needs.

Yun Mujiu arranged for people from Xianggen Pavilion to escort the medicine over tomorrow.

As for the weapons she had Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion craft? That wasn't too important. She was just using the excuse of doing business to get in touch with the people from Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion.

...

Ye Chuxiao returned to the Ye Palace and went to the training ground to meet the soldiers.

When he came down from the training ground and walked back with the support of a group of generals.

Shadow One, Shadow Two and Shadow Three, dressed in black, appeared and brought back the latest investigation information.

"Your Highness, as you expected, the Emperor has summoned his confidants for a two-day meeting. Starting last night, the Emperor issued two secret decrees!"

"One is to have Dragon Staff Guard leader Chen Geng take the token to the Imperial Guards' commander and order the commanders of the left and right vanguard battalions to each prepare a team of elite soldiers."

"The other one is an order for the commander of the Imperial Guard to lead a group of elite troops for further training, which seems to indicate a trend of large-scale action."

Ye Xiaohan listened to the report calmly, his eyes cold.

He said quietly: "Ye Haolian, you can't sit still anymore..."
