The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

As time went by, Ye Chufeng had changed the way he addressed Yun Mujiu from "Ajiu" to "Princess Ye", "Aunt Imperial", or "Yun Mujiu".

In addition, he had never called Yun Mujiu "Ajiu" in front of Yun Mujiu.

The past is past, we have to look forward.

Cang Feng no longer privately addressed Yun Mujiu as "Miss Yun", but instead respectfully addressed her as "Princess Ye".

Cang Feng understood what the Seventh Prince was thinking, and he also knew that the Seventh Prince no longer had the heart to dress up. He stopped pacing and honestly packed a few sets of clothes.

Ye Chufeng opened the handkerchief and sat up suddenly, his eyes full of complicated expressions.

He didn't say anything, just sat there quietly, his eyebrows were drooping, and there was something abnormal about the pupils in his eyes.

He had suffered from eye disease for many years, but he never thought about curing it.

In the past, the emperor had asked the imperial physician to treat his disabled son for the sake of the royal family's reputation, but it was ineffective. After several attempts, the emperor found that his disease was difficult to treat, so he gave up and has not paid attention to his condition until now.

The Empress Dowager was worried about him and invited several doctors to treat him, but unfortunately there was no effect. Later, the Empress Dowager became even more unwell and had no time to take care of him.

The fifth brother's leg disease was even more difficult to cure, but the emperor never gave up on him and even focused all his attention on him. Although the fifth brother could not walk, he was valued by many people and was placed with high hopes by everyone.

As for Ye Chufeng, he had no maternal family background, his biological mother had passed away, and his father did not love him. In this royal family, the love between brothers and sisters was even more bland.

Inside and outside the palace, openly and privately, people mocked him as a useless prince, saying that his eyes were like a blind man's and he couldn't even see simple colors.

He protected himself by his dandy lifestyle and appeared cold and hard to others.

However, there is a soft spot in his heart. It is a winter memory twelve years ago. He met his best friend - the little girl with a veil and smiling eyes.

Ye Chufeng withdrew his thoughts and looked sideways. Cang Feng looked thoughtful, still thinking about what luggage to bring.

Ye Chufeng's expression fluctuated, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Now, he desperately hopes that his eyes can be cured so that he will no longer be a disabled prince...

As night falls, the breeze becomes cooler.

Yun Mujiu left the medicine room and said to Du Ziheng and others, "Everyone should rest early tonight. We will set off early tomorrow morning."

Everyone agreed and retreated.

A guard came to report and handed Yun Mujiu a letter. "Princess, this is a letter from Master Meng."

Yun Mujiu took the letter and went to Huayang Courtyard.

In the study, Yun Mujiu opened the envelope.

It was just a quick glance, but her eyes widened. A few days ago, Meng Ninglang quietly asked her grandfather about the black-robed man in the frontier, but she didn't expect to get a reply so soon.

Ye Xiaohan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Are there any new clues in the Meng Mansion?"

"Meng Ninglang replied, in addition to my uncle who investigated the black-robed man in that border area back then, my grandfather also sent people to investigate secretly." Yun Mujiu handed the letter in his hand to Ye Xiaohan, his brows furrowed with a thoughtful look.

According to Meng Ninglang, more than a decade ago, when the Meng family was stationed at the border, a mysterious man appeared in the small town where the Meng family was located. The man in black robe claimed, "I am looking for a person with a flower mark on his body."

The man in black robe asked Meng Ninglang, who was still a child at the time, and Meng Ninglang said he didn't know there was such a person.

Later, when Meng Shihao learned about this incident, he wanted to investigate this strange man. However, the man in black robe had already left, and Meng Shihao could not find any information at all.

I thought the matter was over, but I didn't expect that Duke Meng had also investigated the man in black robe. Although he didn't find much information, he did get a result.

That is - after leaving the town, the black-robed man appeared in several counties north of the town, continuing to inquire about the news of a person with a flower mark on his body. After several inquiries without any hope, the man disappeared further north.

Duke Meng could no longer find out the man's whereabouts and could only roughly guess that the man was still heading north.

After Ye Xiaohan finished reading the letter, his eyes were as dark as ink.

His voice was deep, "Northward?"

Eighteen years ago, Meng had left the capital and headed north, staying at several inns in the north of the capital. After that, Meng disappeared completely, and no one could find out where she went.

Yun Mujiu could hear the emphasis in Ye Xiaohan's voice and guessed, "Your Majesty, the man in black robe may continue to head north?"

"Based on the trajectory we have found, it is very likely that he will continue to move northward." Ye Xiaohan glanced at the letter again, "The place where he first appeared was the southernmost town in Zhongyue. It is impossible for him to move further south."

"I think so too. He won't go south again." Yun Mujiu pondered: "If he goes further south, he will reach Nantai."

"First, according to the prince's analysis, this person is likely to follow the original northward trajectory."

"Secondly, he needs a pass to cross the border. But my uncle has already sent soldiers to track down the man in black robes. If the man in black robes crosses the border, the soldiers guarding the city will know."

Yun Mujiu looked at Ye Xiaohan, and they both came to the conclusion at the same time: "It's impossible for him to go south."

Yun Mujiu sighed, "When I asked Meng Ninglang before, he just remembered that a man in a black robe asked questions more than ten years ago, but he couldn't remember the exact year."

Pointing to a corner of the letter, he said, "The year written here is - fourteen years ago. I was a little over three years old at that time."

Ye Xiaohan said: "In the year after you were born, the man in black robe appeared..."

Yun Mujiu raised his eyebrows, his eyes showing some worry. "Could it be that this man in black robe is looking for me?"

Then, Yun Mujiu was suddenly dumbfounded and boldly guessed: "He can't be my real biological father, right?"

Ye Xiaohan looked at Yun Mujiu's somewhat frightened little face, raised his hand and stroked Yun Mujiu's frown.

"Mumu, don't panic, it doesn't matter even if he is."

"I'm here, and I won't let him get to you."

Yun Mujiu calmed down and was frightened by her own guess. Her frown gradually faded under the touch of Ye Xiaohan's big hand.

It just so happened that the man in black robe appeared after she was born. Maybe there was a connection between them...

Biting her lip, "Maybe he knows about my existence, so he wants to find me..."

"That's possible." Ye Xiaohan replied. "But at that time, there was no flower mark on your body."

"Your Highness, I am over 18 years old this year. The flower marks appeared on my body only after I detoxified myself. Before that, I only had the poison birthmark on my face."

Ye Xiaohan rubbed Yun Mujiu's smooth face with his big hands, intending to help Yun Mujiu relax.

He said calmly, "The man in black robe had the intention of looking for the flower mark before your flower mark appeared. He knew about the flower mark before you did."

"Yeah." Yun Mujiu made a bitter face, "It is precisely because he knew some information in advance that the possibility of him being my father increased."

Now we are gradually gaining clues, but they are complicated.

He had no memory of his biological father and no feelings for him. In addition, the search for the truth was full of twists and turns. Yun Mujiu had had enough and was thinking of giving up.

Is it really important to her whether she finds out the truth about her life or not?
