The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

The emperor moved his gaze again, stared at a man in black and asked, "Zhao Guang, what's the news from Biluo Xuesha?"

Zhao Guang shuddered and said carefully, "Your Majesty, I followed your instructions and contacted Biluo quietly. But Biluo couldn't find any information about Netherworld Nineth Layer. They just knew that Netherworld Nineth Layer killed their people."

"Useless!" The emperor's face was unfriendly. "No matter how powerful Netherworld Nineth Layer is, he is just one person. Moreover, he has appeared in Zhongyue's territory. How come so many people can't find Netherworld Nineth Layer!"

Zhao Guang kowtowed hurriedly, "I will continue to investigate and keep in touch with Biluo." The two top killer organizations, Biluo and Soul Stealer, could not find any information about Nether Nine. Could their Dragon Staff Guards be as powerful as the top killer organizations? It seemed that Nether Nine was definitely a powerful figure!

The emperor glanced coldly and his eyes fell on a person who was kneeling on the ground.

"My dear Yun, what do you think?"

Yun Xiang was called by name, looked up, and replied carefully: "Your Majesty, we can't find any information from the Netherworld Nineth Layer, how about we check from the people in the Nether Palace?" He paused, and said while enduring the pain in his body: "The people in the Nether Palace are not as powerful as the Netherworld Nineth Layer, it is easier for us to start with them."

The emperor pondered and looked at Zhao Guang. "Find a breakthrough from the people in the Nether Palace, and then investigate deeper into the Netherworld."

Zhao Guang thought about it and immediately said, "Mr. Yun's suggestion is good, but the people in the Underworld Palace are always elusive, so I'm afraid it won't be that easy to track them down."

The emperor ordered coldly: "Even if it's difficult to investigate, we have to find a reason to lure the people out of the Underworld Palace!"

"I obey my orders!"

The emperor walked a few steps slowly, came to Yun Xiang, and looked down at Yun Xiang.

Prime Minister Yun was secretly delighted, feeling fortunate that he had recently regained the opportunity to attend court and could now be summoned by the Emperor to discuss matters.

The emperor asked, "How is the thing I asked you to do before going?"

Yun Xiang's face changed, "Your Majesty, I am still working on it."

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. Since Yun Mujiu is the weak spot of the Night King, I will definitely not let her continue to assist the Ye Palace! I will use Yun Mujiu as a breakthrough point to hurt the Night King and the Night Palace."

"Once Yun Mujiu gets into trouble, the Night King will certainly be implicated. At that time, at best we can report a few crimes against the Night King and ruin his reputation. At worst we can eliminate Yun Mujiu and make the Night King lose a major helper!"

The emperor's expression improved a little and he nodded slightly.

"Yun Mujiu is a medical practitioner and has a certain reputation among the people. There is no need to kill her unless it is necessary." Yun Mujiu's medical skills are comparable to those of Doctor Wu. Maybe Yun Mujiu can be useful in the future, so we can't just kill her.

The emperor clenched his fingers and said, "And Duke Meng pays attention to Yun Mujiu. If Yun Mujiu gets into trouble, Duke Meng's faction will also cause trouble, which may shake the foundation of the government."

"I understand." Yun Xiang kowtowed and responded heavily.

The emperor smiled coldly, his eyes full of viciousness.

In the Princess's residence, Princess Gaoyang was resting in bed. Her beautiful eyes widened when she heard the housekeeper reporting on the recent business situation.

"My business has been in a slump lately, how come someone is opening a new shop to steal my business!"

"Princess, please calm down. Our big shops are located near the Laurel House and the Hundred Flowers Garden. The opening of the two new shops is just a temporary way to attract people. Our customers will come back in a while."

"Hmph, I hope so." Princess Gaoyang was in a very bad mood. The expenses of the princess's mansion were like water, and her royal brother was unwilling to give her more money. She could only rely on her own fields and properties to barely maintain the expenses.

Some time ago, something went wrong with her business, and then there were endless bad things, all of which were caused by problems with her land and property. She was sure that someone was secretly targeting her.

Once she finds out who that person is, she will make sure he pays!

Princess Gaoyang looked at the bowl of medicine held by the servant with an impatient look on her face. "I am so tired of taking this crappy medicine every day! It's all because of Yun Mujiu that I got frightened and became seriously ill!"

She glared at the housekeeper, "Laurel House and Hundred Flowers Garden have taken our business. Have you found out who is behind them?"

"Princess... not yet. According to rumors from the people, that person may have an extraordinary background and may be related to a noble family in the Eastern Empire."

Gao Yang frowned. If that was the case, she would not be able to afford to offend that person. If that person was not from the Eastern Empire, it would be easier for her to do it.

The housekeeper lowered his back even more, "Besides, the people from Yueguilou and Baihuayuan specially sent people to distribute flyers near our shop to attract customers near our shop..."

Gao Yang was puzzled: "Three days before the store opened have already passed, are they still handing out flyers?"

"Yes, and it was distributed next to our shop."

"How can it be such a coincidence? Could it be that our store is doing good business and other stores are quiet, so they deliberately want to steal our business?"

"Princess, your analysis makes sense. This is possible."

Gao Yang struggled to sit up, "Did you send someone to invite Ji Ling over?"

A maid replied, "Princess, Princess Ji Ling is still ill and cannot come."

"She's a rebel!" Gao Yang was so angry that he picked up a pillow and smashed it to the ground. On the day when Yueguilou and Baihuayuan opened, someone saw Ji Ling giving gifts to the owner.

Gao Yang sent someone to ask Ji Ling who the boss was, but Ji Ling said, "Sister, I just want to curry favor with others and add to the festive mood."

Ji Ling's words made it sound like she didn't know much about the matter and was just trying to make friends with the boss as a stranger.

Gao Yang sent people to invite Ji Ling to come to the mansion twice, wanting to learn more about the mysterious boss. But Ji Ling kept saying he was sick and couldn't come, so she had no choice.

Gao Yang got angry when he thought of Ji Ling's weak appearance. "Forget it, there's no point asking her! What can a princess with no status know!"

She beckoned over a few maids and ordered them, "Sneak into the Laurel Tower and the Hundred Flowers Garden and find out who their boss is."

At that time, Yun Mujiu was in the operating room, performing the operation in an orderly manner.

With the help of professional surgical instruments mobilized by the doctor, Yun Mujiu gradually expanded the diameter of the optic nerve canal inside the optic canal, causing the nerve to be decompressed to a certain extent, thereby alleviating the patient's eye discomfort symptoms.

Du Ziheng glanced at the hourglass in the operating room and saw that two and a half hours had passed.

Time passed minute by minute, Yun Mujiu looked serious, and there was no sign of slackness in his eyes.

Finally, after a cup of tea, Yun Mujiu slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay."

Yun Mujiu performed a hemostatic operation on Ye Chufeng, and Doctor Fu carefully rinsed the area near Ye Chufeng's wound with saline to ensure that there was no residual blood and human tissue fragments.

Fu Qian wiped the sweat from Yun Mujiu's forehead, and Du Ziheng handed the threaded needle to Yun Mujiu.

Yun Mujiu remained calm as he used absorbable sutures to suture Ye Chufeng's surgical incision layer by layer.

Outside, the drizzle was hazy, and even during the day, the sky was still gloomy.

Cang Feng was extremely anxious and paced back and forth.

Ye Xiaohan looked at the operating room with deep eyes.

In the quiet occasion, suddenly, a guard came to report: The emperor has sent a group of secret guards to the Ye Mansion.

Suddenly, Wei Song and Wei Bai were shocked. Did the emperor find out that the seventh prince had left the palace?
