The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

It shot towards Bei Liyi and got stuck on the hem of her skirt. The tail of the arrow was still shaking slightly.

The next shot tremblingly shot towards Gao Yang, passed through Gao Yang's wide sleeves, and pinned Gao Yang's skirt to the ground.

The last arrow flew towards Yun Shirou who was lying on a long wooden bench. With just one arrow, it cut off a strand of Yun Shirou's hair, and then the arrow head slanted into the ground.

The Empress' eyes dimmed. It seemed that Yun Mujiu didn't know any archery at all. Although she barely managed to hit the target, Bei Liyi, Gao Yang and Yun Shirou were all close to Yun Mujiu. Moreover, it seemed that Yun Mujiu's movements were very chaotic and she lacked strength. It seemed that she just happened to shoot three arrows.

Even though others thought the same as the emperor and empress, Bei Liyi and the other two were shocked.

The three of them screamed at the same time, looking so humiliated that the others couldn't help but laugh.

The person involved, Yun Mujiu, touched his head and smiled meaningfully.

"I'm sorry, I'm not very good at it."

Ye Xiaohan praised: "Not bad! Mu Mu is amazing!"

Seeing the Night King speak, the others also started praising him.

Bei Liyi and Gao Yang suppressed their fear and impatience and stared at Yun Mujiu.

Yun Mujiu's disdainful eyes seemed to tell them: Don't even think about escaping, I know what you did!

...

In the Renshou Palace of the Imperial Palace, the Queen Mother reclined on a yellow pear wood couch in the main hall, her eyes closed and her brows slightly furrowed.

Nanny Kong walked over quietly and the Queen Mother immediately opened her eyes.

Madam Kong said earnestly, "Queen Mother, you should have a good rest first. Princess Ye will be fine."

Then he said, "It takes several hours to drive from the southern suburbs to the capital. If Princess Ye had returned this morning, we would not have received the news until later."

The Queen Mother nodded slowly, "I can't let it go."

"Princess Ye is so smart, nothing will happen to her." Nanny Kong said, "Queen Dowager, do you regret going to the South Suburbs banquet?" The Queen Dowager went to the South Suburbs mainly because she wanted to see that man.

The Queen Mother sighed and spoke after a while: "I don't regret it. I wanted to go there all along. Duke Meng and I are old. If I don't go to see him, I don't know if I can see him again before I die."

"Many of the people I knew when I was young have passed away before me." A layer of sighing appeared on the empress dowager's thin face. "I'm afraid the last time I saw Duke Meng was the last time."

Madam Kong paused, not knowing how to comfort the Queen Mother. Duke Meng was old and did not like to participate in foreign affairs. He would probably not show up in public again.

It seems that the Queen Mother and Duke Meng can meet less and less frequently, and there are no old friends of the same age around the Queen Mother...

It was past noon and the crowd had almost dispersed.

Everyone returned to their tents to rest, each with their own thoughts in mind, without saying a word.

There were still some people left at the scene, including Yun Mujiu and Ye Xiaohan.

Ye Chuhe and Concubine Yu cast a concerned look at Yun Mujiu and then left.

Yun Mujiu saw Ye Chufeng from a distance behind the crowd, and her eyes turned slightly. Han Yingwei said that the Seventh Prince was also sending people to look for her...

For this, she nodded slightly to Ye Chufeng and said silently: "Thank you." Ye Chufeng nodded and stopped looking at her.

Yun Mujiu thanked Bai Yanshuang and other people who had helped her one by one. She knew that when she was in trouble, those who were willing to help her were truly precious. So she, Yun Mujiu, would not let down those who were good to her.

If someone treats her well, she will be grateful and remember. If someone treats her badly, she will also remember, but she is just holding a grudge...

Duke Meng came in a hurry, he just learned what happened last night. Meng Shihao and Yi supported Duke Meng, but Duke Meng threw them away.

Duke Meng quickly walked up to Yun Mujiu, first looked at Yun Mujiu carefully for a few times, then felt relieved. Then he half turned around and hit Meng Ninglang with his cane.

"You little brat! How dare you hide Mu Jiu's affairs from me!"

Meng Ninglang screamed "Ah", but he did not avoid the beating from Duke Meng. Although Duke Meng was angry, he did not beat Meng Ninglang to death, and he was still measured in his attack.

Yun Mujiu hurriedly called out, "Grandfather! I'm fine. It's my fault for making you worry. Please spare Meng Ninglang for now. I'll deal with him for you later."

Duke Meng stopped, turned around and smiled at Yun Mujiu, his eyes filled with deep worry.

"My dear granddaughter, how could you be wrong? Grandfather is just concerned about your safety."

Yun Mujiu hurriedly held Duke Meng's arm and said softly, "Grandfather, don't worry, I'm really fine." Then he added, "I've been with the prince all the time."

Duke Meng then nodded in relief, and at the same time gave Yun Mujiu a few more instructions.

Yun Mujiu was afraid that Duke Meng would get angry, so he gave Meng Ninglang several looks. Ye Xiaohan also occasionally talked to him to reassure Duke Meng.

In the end, Duke Meng was finally relieved and was sent back by Meng Ninglang's family.

Yun Mujiu smiled helplessly at the departing figure of Duke Meng. My grandfather sometimes had the temper of a child, like an old naughty boy.

In Ye Xiaohan's tent, Fusang, Suixi, Yingliu, Yingsan, Chunlan, four personal maids, and several bodyguards were kneeling on the ground.

Yun Mujiu saw this scene as he walked in and raised his eyes.

"My Lord, what's going on?"

"As subordinates, they didn't take good care of their master, so they should be punished." Ye Xiaohan's eyes were cold. He always required his subordinates to act strictly, and he would not tolerate those who made serious mistakes.

Yun Mujiu paused and stood behind Fuso and the others.

"Your Highness, they did nothing wrong. I was careless. I was so absorbed in my own affairs that I didn't realize that there was poison in the candle."

After hearing Yun Mujiu's words, Ying Liu and the others realized that Yun Mujiu wanted to plead for them.

Ying Liu was the first to speak: "No! Your Majesty, Princess, it is my fault. I shouldn't have fallen into the trap in my haste. If I had stayed by your side, maybe you wouldn't have been hurt."

Fusang Suixi and his guards also responded: "It's my fault! I shouldn't have rushed to put out the fire and left the princess in the tent!"

This was not enough, Chunlan's four maids spoke up again: "Your Highness, Princess, we are totally wrong. We should not have failed to stay by your side all the time!"

Yun Mujiu looked at them with a smile on his face. "It's normal for Ying Liu to track down an unidentified person. He is also considering my safety."

"As for Fuso and the others, I was the one who asked them to put out the fire. I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that the poison was spread and the criminals just happened to come looking for me."

"I'm not used to having servants serving me all the time, so I let Chunlan and the others take turns to rest."

"More importantly, even if they were in the tent at the time, they would have unconsciously inhaled the poison, which would have caused me trouble. So it's best if they weren't there."

Yun Mujiu's eyes were firm, "Anyway, my Lord, it's my fault. If you want to punish me, punish me! Or rather, punish me mainly!"

She knew that Ye Xiaohan strictly disciplined his subordinates. In order to avoid making things difficult for Ye Xiaohan and to prevent Fusang and the others from being severely punished, she wanted to take on most of the matters herself.

Ye Xiaohan's eyes were cold, and the corners of his lips moved...
