The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

The day of the Spring Outing Banquet has finally arrived.

Since the banquet was held in the southern suburbs of the capital, not far from the center of the capital, all those who attended the palace banquet could prepare to leave around noon.

Therefore, Yun Mujiu was not in a hurry. She got up early and washed as usual, and practiced martial arts at a leisurely pace. Today, she was going to attend a banquet, so she made an exception and shortened her martial arts practice time to half an hour. In the past, she practiced for an hour or more.

While standing on the grass in the yard to rest, Yun Mujiu quietly watched the busy crowd.

Many guards and servants were searching the Qi Chi Courtyard, conducting a carpet search. They even did not spare the grass, and pulled up some of the taller grass to see if there were any snake holes.

In addition, many gardeners are planting some transplanted flowers and plants around their houses. It is said that these flowers and plants can prevent snakes and repel mosquitoes.

A faint smile appeared on Yun Mujiu's lips. Ye Xiaohan had just told her about the measures last night, and today he immediately ordered people to take action.

The people in Ye Mansion were also quite surprised. They heard that the princess was frightened by a poisonous snake that broke in last night. Everyone was concerned about Yun Mujiu's safety and carefully searched for any traces of snakes in Qichiyuan.

"princess…"

Yun Mujiu turned his head and saw Dong Yu shrinking his head with evasive eyes.

"Dong Yu, what's wrong?"

"Princess, it's my fault! I shouldn't have left without telling you last night, otherwise you wouldn't have lost your sight and wouldn't have touched the poisonous snake."

Dong Yu's face became redder and redder as she spoke, and she felt so guilty that she was about to cry. As soon as she changed her clothes last night, she immediately ran back to the bathroom.

On the way, Ying Liu and Ying Er stopped her and said that the princess was staying with the prince. Later, she learned that because the candle was extinguished, the princess accidentally touched a poisonous snake and was greatly frightened.

"What are you talking about? It's none of your business." Yun Mujiu stretched out his hand and pinched Dong Yu's round face. "The snake entering the house was an accident, and the candle went out because the wind suddenly blew."

"Besides, even if you were here, I might have encountered a snake before I called you in. Normally, we can't easily notice snakes that like to hide when we are in a bright environment, let alone in a dark and enclosed environment indoors."

Yun Mujiu comforted Dong Yu with kind words, his bright eyes full of kindness.

Dong Yu's nose twitched, and he was about to kneel down. Woohoo, the princess is really so good!

"Princess, no matter what, I am also at fault. I left my post without permission."

"Okay." Yun Mujiu smiled and immediately helped Dong Yu up. "Then I will punish you."

"Please tell me, Princess. I can accept anything."

Yun Mujiu blinked, "Then I will punish you to water the newly planted flowers and plants in the yard for half a month."

Dong Yu was stunned, looked into Yun Mujiu's firm gaze, and responded with a choked voice.

At this moment, Ying Liu suddenly appeared in front of Yun Mujiu. His wheat-colored face was covered with an apologetic expression, "Princess, I am also wrong."

"It doesn't matter. I told you to stay away from your bathroom."

Yun Mujiu raised his hand to signal for him to stand up, but Ying Liu remained kneeling.

He went on to say, "I made another mistake."

Yun Mujiu was a little curious, "You say."

Ying Liu said seriously, "A few days ago, there was a strong wind at night, and the prince stood outside the princess' bedroom and closed the window for her. The prince also instructed his subordinates that if the princess or Chunlan forgot to close the window when it was windy in the future, the subordinates would go and close the window to prevent the princess from catching a cold."

He lowered his head and said, "Princess, I don't know whether I should tell you about this matter. I have been delaying it until now."

The prince and the princess are husband and wife, and they have their own way of getting along with each other. If sometimes the prince does something quietly for the princess, and this does not have any negative impact on the princess, he, as a subordinate, should not rashly interfere with the relationship between the prince and the princess.

Yun Mujiu and Dong Yu looked at each other and suddenly realized. A few days ago, she asked Dong Yu if he had helped her close the window, because she seemed to remember that she forgot to close the window before going to bed.

Yun Mujiu waved his hands, "It's okay, it's nothing, just a small matter." With a stern face, he added: "If you don't get up, it's your fault. You made me unhappy."

Ying Liu's body froze, and he jumped up with a flip. "Subordinate, subordinate understands!"

Afterwards, Yun Mujiu went to Huayang Courtyard. When she saw Ye Xiaohan for the first time, she looked away, not daring to look directly at him.

Seeing this, Ye Xiaohan raised the corner of his mouth imperceptibly.

"Mumu, did you sleep well last night?"

"Very good. Where's the prince?"

In fact, she didn't sleep well at all because of Ye Xiaohan. Her little heart was beating wildly and she couldn't calm down for a long time due to the mixed feelings of excitement, excitement, embarrassment and joy.

"I didn't sleep well." Ye Xiaohan replied bluntly.

"Why?"

"Because I was thinking about you."

Yun Mujiu was stunned for a moment, and a slight blush spread across her oval face.

Suppressing her heart which was beating rapidly again, she replied bluntly.

"Actually, I didn't sleep well either. I was missing you, too."

Ye Xiaohan raised his eyebrows, and his upturned brows seemed to show his good mood.

The two just stared at each other for a long while, unable to say anything.

You don't need to say much, you can understand what the other person wants to express by looking into his eyes.

In the Nantai envoy's villa, Wanyan Gu was so anxious that he was running around in circles, and his disciple Shan Yi also looked anxious.

Wanyan Gu asked anxiously, "Why haven't the secret guards we sent out come back yet? And we didn't receive any message from them this morning!"

Tu Shan replied: "Please be at ease, Second Prince. Perhaps they are still tracking down the Dragon Staff Guards and haven't had time to take action yet."

Wanyan Gu frowned fiercely and grabbed a few braids on his head with one hand.

"I hope so! I always have a bad feeling."

"I only sent them to sneak attack the Dragon Staff Guards and cause trouble for them. Otherwise, wouldn't my eight secret guards have died in vain? They were well prepared and knew the approximate location of the Dragon Staff Guards, so it stands to reason that nothing would happen to them! Since it's a sneak attack, even if they can't say they will succeed, at least they can get away with it!"

In the palace, the emperor ended his morning court session early because he was going out of town to the hunting grounds. At this moment, he was sitting quietly in the imperial study, patiently waiting for the reply from the Dragon Staff Guard.

Zhao Guang said: "Your Majesty, the Mushi Hall Master did not show up last night. Others could not find any trace of the Mushi Hall Master either."

Geng Wa said: "Your Majesty, the Dragon Staff Guards in the eastern suburbs have not replied yet. Please wait a little longer. They are very skilled in martial arts and will not fall into the hands of the Nantai people."

"Hmm." The emperor looked indifferent, but he was a little anxious inside. Nothing could happen to his people again!
