The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Although Ye Xiaohan did not have the direct power to manage the Jinxiang Guards, he was always paying attention to the situation of all the Jinxiang Guards.

He personally trained the Jinxiang Guards, and he is full of affection and loyalty to them.

Ying Yi replied angrily, "Your Majesty, the Emperor has disbanded the Golden Guards. Some are under the management of the imperial army, while the rest are dispersed in military camps around the capital."

"Moreover, the emperor intends to be harsh on the Jinxiang Guard. If the prince had not allocated a large sum of military pay to the Jinxiang Guard not long ago, I'm afraid their situation would be even more difficult now."

Wei Song took over the topic and said, "Your Highness, some time ago, the Emperor and his faction tried to discredit the Jinxiang Guard, but ultimately failed. I am worried that the Emperor may take further action against the Jinxiang Guard."

Ye Xiaohan's eyes turned cold, and he said quietly, "Your Majesty, if you can't throw dirty water on me, you will resort to even dirtier means. It doesn't matter, it won't be long before the Golden Guard will be back in my hands."

Ye Xiaohan looked at Wei Song and asked, "How is the unknown force in the Eastern Empire that I asked you to track down?"

On his way back to the capital after winning the battle, he was assassinated, including by members of the royal family of the Eastern Empire.

Wei Song said solemnly: "Your Majesty, I have investigated according to your instructions and found that the dark force is indeed related to the First Prince Huangfu Gong and the Second Prince Huangfu Xu of the Dongyang Empire."

Ye Xiaohan asked, "Is it because after I was attacked, these two princes have been more valued by Emperor Huangfu Pu of the Dongyang Empire?"

Wei Song's eyes were surprised at first, but then he calmed down.

He admired and said: "Your Majesty is really a master of strategy and a very good planner."

"Since they participated in the attack on my team, Huangfu Pu will at least show some respect for them."

Ye Xiaohan still had no expression on his face, and ordered: "Wei Song, you continue to follow up on this matter, and if necessary, mobilize the manpower of my mysterious team to act."

When the people in the room heard Ye Xiaohan say "mysterious team", their eyes became serious.

It makes sense. The East Ocean Empire is the strongest country in the Star-Moon Continent. The national blockade is extremely strict, and it is difficult for other countries to get news about the East Ocean Empire.

Now they also have to investigate the royal family members of the East Asian Empire, so naturally they have to pay more attention to it.

They have a prince in control of the situation, so they have nothing to fear even from the Eastern Empire.

Ye Xiaohan glanced at everyone in the room coldly, and then said: "I led the army to win the battle against the Western Barbarians, and successfully made the Western Barbarians behave themselves."

"But Zhongyue is a large country with abundant resources. Other countries are also eyeing Zhongyue. Since I was injured, the Western Barbarians have started to have some small ideas. Nantai and Beihan are even more restless and intend to start a war again."

Ye Xiaohan glanced at Ying Er who was standing there, "Tell everyone the latest developments of the Eastern Empire."

Ying Er nodded, his tone serious. "The Eastern Empire has been secretly training its military recently. This is a level of vigilance that has never been seen in decades."

A serious look appeared in Wei Baiweisong's eyes.

Currently, no country can defeat the Dongyang Empire alone. In the past, there was only one unified country in Xingyue Continent, and that was the Tianji Dynasty.

It’s a pity that the general trend of the world is that things that are together for a long time will eventually separate, and things that are separated for a long time will eventually come together.

Even the superpower Tianji Dynasty, which spanned the Star-Moon Continent, could not escape the fate of being torn apart.

Ye Xiao said coldly: "Even if it is the Eastern Empire, we don't need to be afraid. You just need to do your job well. Next, we need to speed up the progress."

"Yes!" Everyone responded to Ye Xiaohan loudly, their tone full of solemnity and seriousness.

At this time, Butler Zeng came with three visiting cards in his hand. "Your Highness, these are the latest visiting cards we received, all of which are related to the princess."

"Send it up."

Ye Xiaohan opened the three visiting cards and glanced at them, then returned them to Butler Zeng. "Let the princess do what she wants."

"Okay, Your Majesty." Butler Zeng glanced at Ye Xiaohan and hesitated: "Just now, this old servant received a letter, which was secretly sent by someone in the palace."

Ye Xiaohan raised his eyebrows: "Ye Chufeng?"

"Right, right! Your Highness, you guessed it right!" Butler Zeng laughed immediately. He didn't dare to mention directly that it was the letter sent by Ye Chufeng, for fear that Ye Xiaohan would be angry. Now that the prince took the initiative to mention Ye Chufeng, he would not be affected.

Ye Xiaohan looked at Butler Zeng coldly, and Butler Zeng quickly suppressed his happy expression.

Ye Xiaohan glanced at the letter and threw it out for Wei Bai and the others to see.

After reading it, Wei Bai commented: "Ye Chufeng seems to have deliberately made friends with us. He even dared to say that the emperor sent Doctor Shi to diagnose the prince's stubborn illness."

Wei Song was a little puzzled. "But we also know about this. Ye Chufeng was afraid that we didn't know, so he hurried to inform us, right?"

Ye Xiaohan did not respond to their words, "No need to reply to Ye Chufeng, just receive the letter."

Ye Xiaohan thought to himself: Ye Chufeng's message is not needed by the Ye Mansion. Ye Chufeng's intention to make friends with the Ye Mansion should be related to Yun Mujiu.

Wei Bo nodded to show that he understood. Sometimes when you receive a letter and don't need to reply to the sender, you don't need to just write a reply letter to indicate receipt. Firstly, it's troublesome, and secondly, it's redundant.

Meng Ninglang, who was staying in the Herb Hall, felt that the time was about right, so he took Yun Mujiu and others to a human tooth market to take a look.

This human trafficking market is a bit more upscale. Instead of an open-air venue, transactions are conducted in a large courtyard.

The market just opened in the afternoon, and Yun Mujiu and others were the first customers.

The old woman's eyes lit up when she saw Yun Mujiu. This young man looked like a big buyer, unlike some poor families who would spend a long time choosing a maid.

The old woman raised her chubby smiling face and asked in a delicate voice, "Sir, are you here to buy a concubine or a servant? We have a wide network of contacts. No matter what kind of concubine or servant you want, we can find it for you."

Yun Mujiu said: "Servant."

"Okay, okay, I'll call someone out right away." The old woman clapped her hands, and a maid lifted the curtain of the inner hall, and a group of ragged people came out one after another.

They were both men and women, most of them were in their teens or twenties, looked a little haggard, and there was no luster in their eyes.

Yun Mujiu looked at these people and felt a little pity in her heart. The world has always been like this, and all she can do is be good to the people around her and her subordinates.

A group of people stood in a row, each holding their heads high and chests puffed out, hoping that a seller would take a liking to them and give them something to eat and a place to stay.

Meng Ninglang asked: "Are these all the people?"

The old woman smiled and said, "You came at the right time. This is all the people here, and many of them are new."

Yun Mujiu walked while observing the behavior and expressions of those people.

After looking around, her eyes stopped on a girl with very pure eyes.
