The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Yun Mujiu and Ying Yi turned their heads at the same time and saw a man standing not far from them.

His eyes, like the dark and boundless sky, contained a hint of coolness.

Ying Yi's body was stiff, and he dared not move. He lowered his head and called out in a muffled voice, "Prince."

Ye Xiaohan shouted: "What are you doing? Stop it now!"

Ying Yi's heart trembled, he withdrew his frozen hands, and fell to his knees.

Yun Mujiu was stunned when he saw this. The scraps of paper in his hand fluttered in the wind, spun in the air for a few times, and finally landed in front of Ying Yi.

There were a few words written on the paper. They were not very clear, but if you looked carefully, you could still barely make out four words.

"...Zi Ao"

"Wang Shi..."

Ying Yi had completely given up hope and his face was as pale as a death.

Yun Mujiu looked at Ye Xiaohan, his eyes as calm as autumn water, but there seemed to be a hint of coldness in them.

Ye Xiaohan didn't look at Ying Yi, but looked directly at Yun Mujiu. "Come with me." He turned and left.

Yun Mujiu looked at Yanying Yi and couldn't say anything. He gritted his teeth and followed Ye Xiaohan.

Du Ziheng also happened to come to Huayang Courtyard to look for Ye Xiaohan, and was stunned when he saw Ying Yi kneeling on the ground. Like the other guards and servants, he had a trace of fear on his face - Your Majesty, you are angry...

Inside the Huayang Court study, the light was a little dim and the air pressure was inexplicably low.

Ye Xiaohan turned around and said, "You know everything." His tone was affirmative.

Yun Mujiu couldn't tell the emotion in Ye Xiaohan's words, so he just said "hmm".

She said: "Wang Shirou, Li Ziao. The prince sent Yingyi to check their identities..."

Many days ago, on the night of the palace banquet, Ye Xiaohan was concerned about her health and insisted on waiting until she fell asleep before leaving. Then, she guessed that Ye Xiaohan had heard her dream talk, so she made up a set of excuses.

Now it seems that Ye Xiaohan does not trust her!

Yun Mujiu felt so choked up that he couldn't describe how he felt.

Ye Xiaohan's pupils were dark as he stared at Yun Mujiu.

"Ah."

"The prince doesn't trust me." Yun Mujiu said lightly.

Ye Xiaohan subconsciously refused: "No, it's not like that."

Yun Mujiu raised his eyes and said, "Since the prince trusts me, why did you hide it from me?"

Ye Xiaohan was stunned for a moment, "I am concerned about you."

Yun Mujiu took a deep breath, his eyes complicated. "Is the prince more concerned about me, or does he not trust me, so he wants to get to the bottom of this matter?"

Ye Xiaohan noticed the change in Yun Mujiu's expression, and his heart trembled. "I am concerned, but also worried."

Yun Mujiu forced a smile, she understood. What Ye Xiaohan meant by "worry" was actually that he didn't completely believe what he said.

Ye Xiaohan was not wrong to be cautious, and she had to keep the true words of the root from Ye Xiaohan. She did not lie, and it was not wrong for her to say that Li Ziao and Wang Shirou were her enemies, but those two people were from the modern world.

Those two people now look and have the same personality as Ye Chuao and Yun Shirou in the ancient world. They are also the enemies of the original owner and her now.

She just didn't say: Li Ziao and Wang Shirou are from another world. How could she say such words to others!

Yun Mujiu took a step forward and asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to know who the so-called Li Zi'ao and Wang Shirou are?"

Ye Xiaohan said, "You said you were dreaming that day, and the two people you mentioned in your dream were the Crown Prince and Yun Shirou. The names Li Zi'ao and Wang Shirou were adapted from their real names."

Yun Mujiu pursed his lips and said, "I said at the time that I confused their names in my dream because I hated them."

Ye Xiaohan felt a pang in his heart. In Yun Mujiu's dream talk, "Li Zi'ao" was once her fiancé and seemed to have cheated her of her money.

But the secret guards checked and found that Prince Ye Chuao had never cheated Yun Mujiu of his money.

If we go by the illogical nature of dreams, there are also many random scenes in dreams, and those things have never really happened in the real world.

But, what if the content of the dream is true? Dreams are sometimes a reflection of a person's subconscious mind.

He wanted to understand Yun Mujiu, he wanted to know Yun Mujiu's past...

Moreover, Yun Mujiu also said something like a traitor’s betrayal and that her companions would avenge her.

All this seemed to tell him that Yun Mujiu had something to hide...

Concern leads to confusion, so he sent Ying Yi to check whether there were really people named "Li Zi'ao" and "Wang Shirou" in Zhongyue Kingdom, and whether people with this name might be acquainted with Yun Mujiu.

However, after Yingyi's final thorough inspection, nothing was found.

There are indeed people named "Wang Shirou" and "Li Zi'ao" in Zhongyue Kingdom, but after numerous checks and screening on age, identity, household registration, etc., it was found that they had no possibility of knowing Yun Mujiu.

Ye Xiaohan's feeling of uneasiness grew stronger.

He couldn't help but ask, "Mumu, so Li Zi'ao is the prince, and Wang Shirou is the second lady of the Yun Mansion, right?"

Yun Mujiu sighed, made up his mind, and replied.

"Yes, to a certain extent." Ye Chuao and Yun Shirou are both her enemies. It can be understood that these two people are the previous lives of Li Ziao and Wang Shirou in another world.

Ye Xiaohan grasped the key words, "To a certain extent?"

Yun Mujiu sighed silently again, as if a huge stone was blocking her heart, making it hard for her to breathe. She didn't know what to say.

Yun Mujiu said: "I hate them, they are my enemies, that's all..." She still didn't dare to say it, she was afraid of being considered a monster. She didn't dare to go on.

Originally, this life was her new life. She and Ye Xiaohan had gone through so much before they were finally together. They had lived a peaceful and happy life for only a few days, but now she, who was fearless, was afraid of losing it all.

What I fear most is losing Ye Xiaohan...

A dark light flashed across Ye Xiaohan's eyes, and his Adam's apple moved slightly, but he said nothing.

He said, "Yingyi didn't find anything."

Yun Mujiu confessed, "Except for the Crown Prince and Miss Yun II, I don't know anyone with a similar name to them on Xingyue Continent. For example, I don't know anyone with the names Li Zi'ao and Wang Shirou."

Those two scumbags should still be alive in the modern world, and they wouldn't have traveled through time after dying like her.

Yun Mujiu turned his head, his eyes trembling slightly.

Ye Xiaohan lowered his eyes in thought and did not notice Yun Mujiu's expression for a moment.

Yun Mujiu looked up at Ye Xiaohan again, his eyes so calm that they were somewhat terrifying.

"Mu Mu..." Ye Xiaohan opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Whether he was leading troops to kill the enemy or fighting for power, he could handle it with ease. Even if he encountered a very difficult and dangerous situation, he could still come up with a plan to deal with it if he calmed down and thought about it.

The only thing he was in trouble about was Yun Mu Jiushang...

Yun Mujiu forced a smile, which was obscure and stiff.

"My Lord, you are still on guard against me."

She understood Ye Xiaohan's caution, but if the same thing happened to her, she would also feel uncomfortable and distressed.

Thinking about how Ye Xiaohan treated her and how he didn't trust her in the beginning, her heart ached.

She turned and walked away, fearing that she would be caught up.

Ye Xiaohan's pupils trembled and he chased after him.

"No, I believe you!" At this moment, he felt for the first time that words were so pale.

"Your Highness, please stay!" Yun Mujiu quickened his pace and said in a firm tone, "Leave me alone!" There was a hint of pleading in his tone.

Ye Xiaohan's steps were as heavy as if they were filled with lead, and he stared intently at Yun Mujiu's thin back.

As Yun Mujiu walked out of the door, a tear couldn't help but slide down the corner of his eye.
