The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Chapter 525: Northern Boundary, Ling Xingmu's Origin

Ye Xiaohan changed into a low-key dark purple brocade robe and went out with Yun Mujiu.

At this time, a guard returned to the palace to report: "My Lord, Princess, Master Ling Xingmu has a team of people coming to the capital. Master Ling asked the princess - 'Can he let his people stay in the other courtyard temporarily?'"

Yun Mujiu looked at Ye Xiaohan, signaling Ye Xiaohan to make the decision.

Ye Xiaohan said: "Make a decision after seeing him."

In the main hall of a villa somewhere in the capital, Ye Xiaohan sat in the main seat, and Yun Mujiu sat beside him.

Soon, the servant brought Ling Xingmu into the hall.

Yesterday, under Yun Mujiu's guidance, Du Ziheng sutured Ling Xingmu's wound again. Later, Ling Xingmu had a high fever, and Yun Mujiu prescribed a medicine for Ling Xingmu, giving him the unique and powerful antipyretic medicine of Herb Hall.

At this time, Ling Xingmu's complexion had improved a little, but his skin was still a little scary white.

When he entered the room, he saw a man and a woman sitting upright with outstanding temperament. His pupils suddenly trembled.

Take a closer look, isn't that woman the Doctor Mu who saved him, or Princess Ye? Today, Yun Mujiu changed into a female outfit. Although it was simple, her appearance and temperament were both outstanding, attracting people's attention.

Next to Yun Mujiu was a man in purple, with an extraordinary appearance, but he was sitting in a wheelchair. Even so, it was difficult to conceal the man's luxurious aura.

In just a moment, Ling Xingmu recognized the person and immediately bowed: "I am Ling Xingmu, I pay my respects to the Night King and the Night Queen."

Ye Xiaohan had a stern expression on his face and stared at Ling Xingmu without saying a word.

Ling Xingmu remained in his saluting position, sweat gradually forming on his forehead. Why was the Night King suddenly here? Could it be that the Night King knew that Yun Mujiu had saved him, so he came to check him out to prevent Yun Mujiu from being in danger?

Ling Xingmu nodded, his tone calm and sincere.

"Night King, Night Princess, I have no ill intentions, and I never thought I would meet Night Princess. I was lucky to be treated by Night Princess when I fell ill..."

Ye Xiaohan said: "Sit down."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Ling Xingmu took a breath and was supported by the guard Xiao Zhao to slowly take a seat. He then looked up at the young master behind Ye Xiaohan and nodded as a greeting.

Immediately afterwards, Wei Bai nodded back to Ling Xingmu.

Ye Xiaohan looked at Ling Xingmu, "Ling Xingmu, the youngest son of the governor of the four provinces in the Northern Territory..."

Ling Xingmu looked horrified, his lips slightly parted. How could the Night King know his identity! He was usually very low-key, and except for some people in the North Realm, people in the North Realm and other places in Zhongyue would hardly know of his existence.

So when Yun Mujiu said he wanted to save him, he told him his real name without hesitation. Even if others knew his real name, they would not be able to find out his identity easily.

"Night King," Ling Xingmu said with trembling lips, "You are right." The Night King is extremely capable, so it should be easy to investigate him.

Yun Mujiu's eyes flashed with surprise. She had no intention of saving anyone, but she actually saved someone from the Northern Realm, and that person's identity was extraordinary. She had sent people to check Ling Xingmu these two days, but she hadn't found out Ling Xingmu's identity so quickly.

Ye Xiaohan glanced at Ling Xingmu indifferently and said coldly: "Why did you leave the Northern Territory and come to the capital?"

Ling Xingmu was frightened by the murderous aura that Ye Xiaohan subconsciously exuded, and immediately lowered his head: "Your Highness, my visit to the capital has nothing to do with my father and my family. I just want to have fun and come to the capital for some fun."

"These days, I traveled all the way south from the Northern Territory, and visited many provinces in Zhongyue along the way, and finally came to the capital. As early as when I was in the Northern Territory, I heard about the prosperity of the capital, so I hid it from my father and quietly left with some people."

Ling Xingmu took all the responsibility on himself, and that was the truth. Everything he said was true.

The four provinces of the Northern Boundary are located in a special area, and the people in this area have some differences in ancestral blood relationship with the ordinary people of Zhongyue Country. Normally, people from the Northern Boundary will not easily leave the Northern Boundary area, let alone people of Ling Xingmu's status!

When people from the Ling family in the northern border come to the capital, others will think that they may have ulterior motives!

Ye Xiaohan held the teacup in silence, took a sip of tea, and spoke softly.

"The king will send someone to deliver a message back to the Northern Territory."

"Your Majesty!" Ling Xingmu was anxious, "I really have no other intentions, I just came here to have fun!" He was afraid that his father would punish him severely if he knew. He knew that if someone of his status ran around randomly, people might be suspicious and think that the Northern Realm had some bad intentions.

Ling Xingmu looked at Yun Mujiu, who smiled faintly at him. Ling Xingmu looked at the couple, one with a stern face and the other with an unpredictable smile, and sighed in his heart: They are a good match! But it scared his little heart.

Ye Xiaohan put down the teacup, "Princess, you were saved out of kindness. I will not kill you."

This means that he was treating Ling Xingmu a little better because of Yun Mujiu's face.

Ling Xingmu had just breathed a sigh of relief, but began to suffocate again the moment he heard Ye Xiaohan speak.

"Of course, if you have other restless thoughts, I will kill you." A few days ago, the Hanying Guard sent back news that traces of people from the Northern Territory were found outside the capital. However, what they found was Ling Xingmu's whereabouts, which had been quiet and honest all the way.

Ye Xiaohan added: "At the same time, report to the emperor that the Northern Territory has been unified. The Northern Territory is restless, and Zhongyue has plenty of ways to govern it."

Ling Xingmu's heart slowly calmed down. Although the Night King's words frightened him, when he thought about it carefully, he didn't want to do anything bad, so he didn't have to worry about being beheaded by the Night King.

Ling Xingmu forced a smile: "I understand." He opened his eyes wide and said sincerely: "Ling once again thanks King Ye and Princess Ye for saving my life."

He knew that since the Night King had let him go today, he would not report his trip to the Emperor, which made him feel relieved. It would be fine if the Night King knew that he had come to the capital, but if the Emperor knew, he might want to detain him to deter the Northern Territory.

Ye Xiaohan said: "Leave as soon as your injury heals."

Ling Xingmu certainly had no objection. If it weren't for Yun Mujiu, he would have died of acute appendicitis. Thanks to the Night King and Yun Mujiu, he was able to leave the capital alive.

Ling Xingmu now showed an attitude of gratitude towards Ye Xiaohan and his wife.

Xiao Zhao was stunned. The young master was always mature and steady. He had never seen the young master be so...servile...

Ling Xingmu cast a pitiful look at Ye Xiaohan and his wife, "King Ye, Princess Ye, can some of my guards and servants who have just arrived in the capital stay in the other courtyard temporarily? I only have one guard by my side at the moment, and I don't have anyone to take care of me. Besides, it's not good to trouble you to use the people in the Ye Mansion to serve me all the time..."

"Yes." Ye Xiaohan interrupted Ling Xingmu's chattering, "I will send another guard to guard the other courtyard."

Ling Xingmu was startled, and said that it was absolutely no problem. He lived in someone else's place, so it was normal for them to send some people to guard him! What's more, maybe he could take advantage of the Ye Mansion. With the Ye Mansion's personal guards, he didn't have to worry about any bad guys robbing or assassinating him. It was safer now!

After Ling Xingmu went down to recuperate, Yun Mujiu asked Ye Xiaohan.

"Your Majesty, is Ling Xingmu's background unusual?"

The words "Northern Realm" seemed far away from her life, and she didn't know much about the Northern Realm. When she first heard Ling Xingmu's name, she had no idea that the surname "Ling" had a great origin in the Northern Realm.
