The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

A carriage drove out of the palace gate and headed for the prince's residence. The driver was driving the carriage, and there was a person sitting in the carriage.

This person is Doctor Li, who is responsible for taking care of the Queen's health and is only used by the Queen.

The prince complained to the queen that he was not feeling well and might have a hidden illness. The queen was worried about the issue of having children, so she sent the imperial physician Li to see the prince regularly.

The sky was filled with golden sunset glow and the sun was setting in the west.

The number of pedestrians on the street decreased as people rushed home for dinner.

When the driver was driving his horse-drawn carriage through a small alley, he found a bullock cart blocking the road. As soon as he pulled the reins, a dark shadow flashed by. In an instant, the driver was hit on the head and fell to the ground unconscious.

Doctor Li noticed the movement outside the carriage. As soon as he lifted the curtain, he looked down and saw the coachman lying on the ground.

With a loud bang, Doctor Li was also knocked unconscious. When he woke up, he found that his and the driver's money bags and other valuables were gone.

Doctor Li sighed, "Fortunately, the medicine box and the medicine in the car were not taken away. I think it must be a thief who stole the money."

When Doctor Li arrived at the prince's residence, the prince was furious: "Doctor Li, I have been waiting for you for a long time! Why did you come so late?"

Doctor Li knew a little about the prince's temper, so he didn't dare to say that he was late because someone had stolen something. He said angrily, "Your Highness, please forgive me. It took me some time to find the herbs..."

The prince snorted, "I will forgive you this time, but it won't happen again."

If it weren't for the fact that Doctor Li's medicine seemed to have some effect recently, he would have definitely held Doctor Li accountable for being late.

Doctor Li hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you, Your Highness. I prepared a new medicinal formula based on your current condition."

He took out two large bags and said, "These are the medicinal materials for the past two days."

The prince uttered a muffled "hmm", a spark of hope in his eyes.

That night, after the prince drank the medicine, he felt his body getting slightly hot. He was so excited that he seemed to be able to envision his bright future.

As a result, he had a lot of nosebleeds, his body was tired, but his mind was extremely excited, and he had trouble falling asleep the whole night.

The next day, the prince looked even more haggard. He did not lose heart, thinking that the medicine was working and that he would recover if he drank more medicine.

Qingxuan Hall of the Imperial Palace.

Ye Chufeng's lips curled up with an evil arc, and he said lightly: "I guess the prince is very excited right now and is eager to get better soon."

Last night, Cang Feng followed his instructions, knocked out the coachman and Doctor Li, and added something to Doctor Li's medicine to replenish the prince's kidney deficiency.

Cang Feng smiled: "Seventh Prince, after the prince finishes drinking the medicine, Imperial Doctor Li won't be able to find out anything. He will only think that the prince is too weak to take the medicine and can't bear the medicine he prescribed."

"Yeah. Who told him to disrespect Yun Mujiu? You heard the disgusting words he said last time."

Cang Feng said: "The prince had been engaged to Miss Yun, but now their relationship is like fire and water. Miss Yun is an excellent person, how could she possibly be interested in the prince's character and personality..."

Ye Chufeng's face suddenly turned cold.

If he had known earlier that Yun Mujiu was the little girl from before, he would have found a way to help Yun Mujiu. Yun Mujiu would not have suffered the ridicule and humiliation of the prince and others and had to work hard for so many years.

Cang Feng saw Ye Chufeng's expression and lowered his head: "Your Highness, I'm sorry, I was rude." He was so rude that he shouldn't have mentioned Miss Yun's previous engagement in front of His Highness!

"It doesn't matter." Ye Chufeng took a sip of wine and said in a heavy tone: "I would rather Yun Mujiu marry King Ye than the Crown Prince."

I would rather it was Ye Xiaohan. At least Ye Xiaohan seemed to respect Yun Mujiu and cared about him.

Ye Chufeng could see that when Yun Mujiu's illness broke out that day, the worry in Ye Xiaohan's eyes didn't seem fake at all...

In the Huayang Courtyard of the Ye Mansion, Ye Xiaohan had just finished his treatment when he saw Butler Zeng walking over quickly and excitedly saying, "Your Majesty, Master Du is back!"

"Please let him in." A hint of joy flashed in Ye Xiaohan's eyes. Du Ziheng had been with him for many years and they had a brotherly relationship.

A man strode in, wearing a gray-white robe, his hair tied up with a bamboo hairpin, with a clear face and an upright posture.

He ran to Ye Xiaohan, lifted his robe, and knelt down, "Your Majesty, I am back."

Ye Xiaohan stretched out his hand to stop Du Ziheng from kneeling, and said coldly: "Don't kneel."

"Okay, Your Highness." Du Ziheng smiled faintly, his dark brown pupils carrying an unusually delicate feeling.

He stood up straight and bowed respectfully to Ye Xiaohan. "How do you feel, Your Majesty?"

On his way back to the capital from Duti Valley, he had corresponded with Yefu. Wei Bo had already informed him of what had happened in Yefu in his letters in recent days.

Ye Xiaohan glanced at his leg and said, "There is hope that it can be cured."

Du Ziheng's eyes turned red, "It's all my fault. I just happened to be back at Duti Valley during this period."

Ye Xiaohan said calmly: "It's okay. The teacher's kindness is heavy, and your master has passed away, so you should go back."

"How is the matter being handled?"

After Du Ziheng received the news of his master's death, Ye Xiaohan approved Du Ziheng to rush back to attend the funeral. However, the journey was long, the weather was bad, and Duti Valley was located in a remote area, so it took a long time to go back and forth.

Du Ziheng suppressed the emotions in his eyes and replied, "Your Highness, at first the elders of Duti Valley did not allow me to go back for the funeral, but fortunately my master made preparations before he passed away and left a written oral instruction, so I was able to successfully enter the valley."

"I stayed vigil for quite a while, and finally started to return after successfully burying my master. During this time, a fellow apprentice secretly gave me some supplies that my master had left for me, which were some rare medicinal herbs and ancient medical books. I thought they might be of some use to the prince's condition."

Ye Xiaohan said calmly: "I have other plans for this matter. You go back to the mansion and rest first."

Du Ziheng was in a hurry on his way, with light blue stubble around his lips, which didn't seem to match his age.

Du Ziheng responded obediently, "I will come to see the prince as soon as possible."

Then, Du Ziheng took Ye Xiaohan's pulse, checked the condition of his legs, and retreated.

When he walked out of Huayang Courtyard, he saw Wei Bai walking towards him. The two men clenched their fists and bumped them lightly a few times, which was a warm way of greeting.

The two good brothers looked at each other with firm eyes, and then laughed.

Wei Bai put his arm around Du Ziheng's shoulders and said, "Du Ziheng, you've lost a lot of weight. It must have been very hard on this journey, right?"

Du Ziheng also put his arm around Wei Bo's shoulders, and the two walked side by side. "It wasn't hard, but I came back a little late and couldn't help you."

Wei Bai chuckled: "What are you talking about? We all have our own tasks. Now that you have completed your task and returned safely, it is a good thing."

Du Ziheng looked at Wei Bai with relief, "It's been a long time since we last met. I feel more familiar with you now. You don't seem to be that..."

Wei Bo asked: "Not so what?"

Du Ziheng laughed softly: "It seems that you don't deserve a beating so much anymore. Haha..."

Wei Bai clenched his other hand into a fist and punched Du Ziheng in the chest with very light force, just like a kitten scratching an itch.

"You too, you look so haggard that I can't bear to hit you hard..."

Du Ziheng pretended to be nauseous and wanted to vomit, then said seriously: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I'm going to go see Wei Song before leaving the house. By the way, tell me what happened in the past two days." He only knew what happened two days ago, when he exchanged a letter with Wei Bo. He didn't know what happened afterwards.

Wei Bai smiled lightly and told Du Ziheng some things in detail, and also explained in detail the things that could not be described in detail in the previous letters.

This made Du Ziheng feel very upset. Even though he already knew roughly what had happened, he was still concerned about the specific details.

During the time he was away from home, the things that happened in Ye Mansion were really tense and exciting!
