The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Ye Xiaohan tapped the table with his fingers and said firmly, "The emperor sent more people."

"Your Highness, that's exactly what happened. The night before last, when we were leading Wanyan Gu's men, we encountered the Dragon Staff Guards. Then all the secret guards sent by Wanyan Gu died at the hands of the Dragon Staff Guards' swords." Wei Song answered respectfully.

Ye Xiaohan successfully kept the Ye Mansion out of the matter and cleverly pitted the Emperor against Wanyan Gu. He deliberately leaked Wei Song's whereabouts to Wanyan Gu, which led to him sending the Nantai assassin.

Before this, the emperor was still chasing the traces of the mysterious Nantai team, and happened to meet the Nantai people sent by Wanyan Gu.

The handover between the two factions was bound to cause some trouble. The emperor spent his time and energy on the Nantai team, and Wanyan Gu and others were suppressed and hunted down by the emperor's faction - this was the consequence of Wanyan Gu's meddling.

It was during this gap that the Ye Mansion could take a breather and no longer be closely watched by various forces. At the same time, Ye Xiaohan could safely undergo the final healing process in the Ye Mansion.

Ye Xiaohan's eyes were gloomy: "If you continue to mislead the people sent by the emperor, the Ye Mansion will need some time to recuperate and adjust."

"Yes!" Wei Song nodded: "I will keep in close contact with the shadow guards and guards who are leaving the city."

At this time, the secret guard reported that Wei Bai and Du Ziheng wanted to see him, and Ye Xiaohan nodded and let them in.

Wei Bai and Du Ziheng walked in quickly, both with smiles on their faces: "Subordinates pay their respects to the prince."

Wei Baigang was dealing with some things outside and immediately rushed back to Ye Mansion.

Ye Xiaohan said: "Wei Song, tell them what happened just now."

Wei Song nodded and quickly told Wei Bai and Du Ziheng about the conversation he had just had with Ye Xiaohan.

Ye Xiaohan said in a cold voice: "The emperor does not know that the people encountered by the Dragon Staff Guards are Wanyan Gu's men, but he knows that they are from Nantai. In this way, the emperor will also step up surveillance of the Nantai envoys led by Wanyan Gu."

He then said in a cold voice: "Nan Tai's strength is not as strong as Zhong Yue's, but there is no guarantee that he will take advantage of Zhong Yue's post-war recovery period to have other intentions, so we must remain vigilant against Nan Tai."

Ye Xiaohan's analysis was both rational and clear, and Wei Song and others quickly understood the profound meaning behind it.

Wei Bai took two big steps forward and added additional new information: "Your Highness, the team I led out of the city that day has the latest report - the emperor's men have entered the deep mountains of Liumu County. It will take some time for the imperial guards and the Dragon Staff Guards to search the mountains."

Wei Bai glanced at Wei Song and asked, "Your Highness, I and Wei Song have returned to the capital. Last time, we were thinking about unsealing the Ye Mansion, so we came back to see how Your Highness's injuries had recovered, and to take care of some important matters in the capital. Now the emperor's people are still tracking us down, should I and Wei Song leave the city and return to the team?"

Ye Xiaohan waved his hand: "No need. You stay in the capital. Don't let anyone outside the Ye Mansion know that you are back in the city."

Although the emperor has certain strategies, sometimes when he encounters things that are closely related to his interests, especially things related to Ye Xiaohan, the emperor will become hot-headed in a short period of time and urgently want to suppress and exploit the people of Ye Xiaohan's faction.

Wei Song and Wei Bai replied in unison: "We understand!"

Ye Xiaohan snapped his fingers, and a black shadow appeared before his eyes.

The man in black knelt on the ground and said in a deep voice: "My Lord!"

Ye Xiaohan waved his hand, signaling for them to stand up, and the man in black stood up immediately.

Ye Xiaohan asked, "Are there any problems with stockpiling food and grass?"

"Master, there are no problems for now. Everything is going as you planned."

"Well," Ye Xiaohan's eyes were solemn, "the more food and grass the better, just in case."

Wei Song, Wei Bai and Du Ziheng looked at each other, and their expressions instantly froze.

The man in black said, "Also, the people in the court did not make any major moves. No officials or soldiers in the court started to stockpile food and fodder on purpose."

Wei Song raised the corner of his lips, "These people have always been like this. They won't take the initiative to make preparations before seeing the consequences. They always think that they are in a high position and don't have to worry about anything."

Ye Xiaohan didn't say anything, but there was a hint of deep thought in his eyes. He looked at the man in black and said, "There's nothing else to do, so leave."

The man in black paused, a hint of hesitation flashed across his resolute eyes, and his waist bent a little.

Ye Xiao asked coldly: "What else?"

The man in black couldn't help but ask, "Master, when will you come to visit us? I haven't seen you for quite some time..."

Afraid that Ye Xiaohan would think something important had happened, he added hastily, "Master, don't worry. The situation in the hall is stable and nothing major has happened. We are just looking forward to seeing you."

Ye Xiaohan thought for a moment and quickly said, "I will be leaving the palace soon. You can handle the trivial matters in the hall for the time being. I will also handle the key matters in the palace."

He finally said, "Report to the mansion if there is anything important."

"Yes, I understand."

After the man in black left, Wei Bai looked at Ye Xiaohan with a hint of worry in his eyes. "Your Majesty, do you need me to leave the Ye Mansion and go to the hall to inspect the situation?"

Ye Xiaohan shook his head slightly, "They can do it. If they fail to do their job well, they are not worthy of being my subordinates."

Wei Bai and Wei Song paused, their lips curled up. The prince's words were still as domineering as ever! The prince was calm and composed, and as his subordinates, they should relax and not worry too much.

Seeing that the discussion was almost over, Du Ziheng stood up and said, "My Lord, do you have any free time now?"

Ye Xiaohan said: "Speak."

Du Ziheng replied: "Your Majesty, it's time for you to take your medicine. I have already prepared the medicine prescribed by the princess."

The coldness faded from Ye Xiaohan's handsome face. "Show it up."

Du Ziheng turned around and reminded the housekeeper Zeng outside the house to bring the medicine, then he approached Ye Xiaohan with a smile.

Ye Xiaohan looked at each other coldly. Du Ziheng's behavior didn't look like anything good was going to happen.

Du Ziheng bent down and stood beside Ye Xiaohan, whispering, "My Lord, have you resolved the issue with the princess last time?"

Du Ziheng spoke suddenly without saying anything clearly, and Ye Xiaohan didn't immediately figure out what it was about.

Ye Xiaohan frowned slightly and quickly figured out the whole story.

Du Ziheng also happened to speak up: "It's about the princess's secret. At that time, I suggested that Your Majesty could talk to the princess directly, so that you can get to know her better from the side?"

Ye Xiaohan was stunned for a moment, his tone indifferent.

"The king has his own plans for this matter."

When Yefu was closed, Yingyi gave him the list of names he had found, which recorded the names of people Yun Mujiu had called out in his dream. There were many people, but he had never found any person on the list who might have known Yun Mujiu.

There was always a feeling that something was wrong, as if there were many things that he could not easily control...
