The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

The man in red was Ye Chufeng. He had a smile on his face and a teacup in his hand.

The man in white is Ye Chuhe. His condition has improved slightly and he is able to go out in a wheelchair.

Ye Chufeng nodded to Ye Xiaohan and Yun Mujiu, "Uncle Emperor, Aunt Emperor..."

Ye Chuhe smiled gently, "Nephew Chuhe, meet the Emperor's uncle and aunt."

Ye Chufeng and Ye Chuhe raised the cups in their hands and said in unison: "Nephews toast to the Emperor's uncle and aunt."

Ye Xiaohan nodded in response to give face, and watched Yun Mujiu pick up the cup, and Yun Mujiu also picked up the teacup.

Ye Chufeng and Ye Chuhe's eyes flashed with surprise, surprised that Ye Xiaohan would give them face. They drank the wine in their cups in one gulp. Then Ye Xiaohan and Yun Mujiu also symbolically drank the wine in their cups.

Ye Chufeng and Ye Chuhe finished their greetings and took the initiative to say goodbye.

After Ye Chuhe returned to his seat, he lowered his eyes slightly to hide the contemplation and apology in his eyes. The apology was to Yun Mujiu and Ye Xiaohan, after all, it was because of his illness that he took away Doctor Wu from the Ye Mansion.

He seldom showed pity to anyone, but when he recalled Yun Mujiu's gentle smile in the imperial garden that day, and heard all kinds of news about Yun Mujiu along the way, Ye Chuhe felt that Yun Mujiu had gone through a lot of hardships to get to where he is now, which was not something that ordinary people could do.

He felt a little sorry and sympathetic for Yun Mujiu's past and situation.

The prince was talking to several ministers, and he noticed from the corner of his eye that Ye Chuhe and Ye Chufeng went to toast Ye Xiaohan. He curled his lips, feeling disdainful for a moment. Could it be that Ye Chufeng and Ye Chuhe were trying to curry favor with Ye Xiaohan?

It makes sense. One of them is powerless and has abnormal eyes, and the other is in poor health and disabled. They can never compare to him, the prince...

The prince withdrew his thoughts and continued chatting with the minister. He was the prince and stood on the opposite side of Ye Xiaohan, so he would not take the initiative to toast.

In fact, the prince’s biggest worry was that he was afraid to go and toast. If Ye Xiaohan didn’t give him face, he would be completely embarrassed.

At that time, the first dance performance came to an end, and another dance team came on stage and was arranging their formations.

Yun Mujiu's gaze passed through the performing dancers and saw Ye Chufeng who was diagonally opposite her.

Ye Chufeng sat casually, with an occasional wicked smile on his lips. He drank a lot of wine while watching the performers with great interest.

Ye Chufeng glanced at Yun Mujiu intentionally, and met his gaze. He was worried that people would find out that he had dealings with the Ye family, and even more worried about causing trouble for Yun Mujiu, so he immediately looked away, but there was a genuine smile on the corner of his lips.

The radiant woman before him was simply impossible to connect with the crybaby little girl in his memory.

Yun Mujiu saw through Ye Chufeng's disguise at a glance. Even though Ye Chufeng was smiling, there was no smile in his eyes just now.

Yun Mujiu could understand Ye Chufeng's difficulties in the palace. If it weren't for the mandatory rescue mechanism of the doctor system, Yun Mujiu probably wouldn't have met and known Ye Chufeng, and naturally wouldn't have known that Ye Chufeng's true character was not a dandy and useless prince.

Yun Mujiu thought about her dream last night and tried to recall the boy's appearance in her dream. But no matter how hard she tried, the boy's face was still blurry.

Yun Mujiu felt a little uneasy when he thought that he might have a missing memory, and a trace of worry appeared between his brows.

Ye Xiaohan approached Yun Mujiu and asked in a low voice, "Are you thinking about your dream last night?"

Yun Mujiu was surprised and moved closer to Ye Xiaohan. "How did the prince know?"

Just now, she took the carriage into the palace, and on the way, she shared her dream from yesterday with Ye Xiaohan.

Ye Xiaohan held Yun Mujiu's hand and said calmly, "I'll find a chance to ask him later. Don't worry, it's okay if you don't remember something."

Yun Mujiu gave Ye Xiaohan a comforting smile, "Okay, I understand."

"Are you Princess Ye?" A sharp and somewhat unfriendly voice was raised.

The sound was so loud and sharp that the crowd went silent for a moment.

Yun Mujiu raised her eyelids and looked over. Standing in the middle of the platform in front of her was a young woman.

The young woman was wearing a pomegranate red butterfly-patterned long dress with narrow sleeves and a waist. Her hair was tied up high, and the four green tassel hairpins in her hair were even more bright and eye-catching. Her nose was straight and strong, with an exotic charm.

Her eyes were brown like glass and seemed calm, but when matched with her bright red lips, her whole face gave off a chilling aura.

Yun Mujiu glanced at the woman and ignored her.

The emperor and empress were slightly stunned, surprised why Bei Liyi would look for Yun Mujiu and look so arrogant and proud.

The musicians and dancers stood there, not knowing whether to continue the performance. The queen glanced at Bei Liyi and waved to the people in the music hall. The musicians and dancers nodded and left the hall together.

Bei Liyi took a step forward towards Yun Mujiu, raised her chin and asked, "You are Princess Ye, why are you ignoring me?"

The faces of those present, including the Emperor and Empress, looked unhappy for a moment.

No matter how they viewed Yun Mujiu in their hearts, or how close they were to her, Yun Mujiu was still from Zhongyue Country, and was even more so the princess of Zhongyue Country. People were offended by the rude words spoken by the princess of Beihan Country.

Bei Liyi is a princess of another country. Why would she provoke the prince's wife at the banquet in Zhongyue Palace?

Yun Mujiu gave Ye Xiaohan a look that said "let me meet you" without leaving any trace, and Ye Xiaohan immediately loosened his grip on Yun Mujiu's big hand.

Yun Mujiu frowned, "Who are you? Why should I care about you?"

Bei Liyi saw Yun Mujiu paying attention to her, and hurriedly replied: "You must know who I am. I am Princess Beihan Bei Liyi."

Just now, a eunuch had clearly shouted to introduce the guest, and Yun Mujiu must have known that she was Princess Beihan.

Yun Mujiu chuckled, "How am I supposed to know who you are when you come up and start shouting rudely?"

"Besides, haven't you learned etiquette? Don't you know that if you want to take the initiative to greet a stranger, you should introduce yourself?"

Bei Liyi's eyes widened. She didn't expect Yun Mujiu to be so eloquent. He was really as sharp-tongued as the rumors in Beijing recently.

Her face changed. Has anyone ever directly told her that she was "impolite"?

Bei Liyi argued in an accusatory tone: "Princess Ye, how can you speak like that! We Beihan people are more generous when greeting each other, and we are not too fussy..."

“That’s your Beihan!” Yun Mujiu said impatiently: “Since you have come to Zhongyue Country, you must abide by the etiquette rules here!”

Yun Mujiu's straightforward words formed a sharp contrast with Bei Liyi's teasing, and the onlookers almost wanted to applaud Yun Mujiu.

Bei Liyi swallowed her words and remembered her sister's advice: "Don't act too smart when you go to Zhongyue Country. This will help lower other people's vigilance and help you achieve your ultimate goal."

But before she even started pretending to be stupid, she was suppressed by Yun Mujiu at the very beginning!

Bei Liyi looked up at the emperor and empress on the high seat and saw that their faces were a little serious. Bei Liyi didn't want to offend the emperor and empress at the beginning, so she hurriedly said to Yun Mujiu: "Okay, I know."

"However, Princess Ye, isn't it rumored that your face is a little damaged? How come it has changed so much now? Are you the real Princess Ye?"

When everyone heard Bei Liyi's last sentence, they were shocked.
