The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

At the Nantai Villa, Wanyan Gu heard that something had happened to the prince and immediately began to gloat over his misfortune.

He pursed his lips and said with regret: "The prince already has a chronic illness. It would be great if he suffered a serious injury this time! In that case, even if a miracle doctor were alive, it would be difficult to cure the prince."

"When the political situation in Zhongyue becomes unstable, I will be a spy in Zhongyue and report news back to Nantai. Maybe I will be appreciated by my father!"

He patted his thigh, feeling distressed. "Hey! Whoever attacked the prince, why didn't they be more ruthless!"

The other envoy's villa belongs to the Beihan Kingdom. Bei Liyi and others have also heard about the noise outside.

Bei Liyi was so startled that she sat up suddenly, looking surprised.

"The prince was beaten in broad daylight? Yun Shirou was kidnapped?"

The maid Xing'er nodded and said, "Princess, there are rumors out there, but no one dares to confirm whether they are true or not."

Bei Liyi was not interested in the prince. She rushed from Beihan to Zhongyue just for Ye Xiaohan.

But when she heard that Yun Shirou was in trouble, she became interested.

"Yun Shirou was kidnapped by gangsters. Are there any rumors about who did it?" The prince was a person of such high status, and his secret guards were highly skilled in martial arts, but something still happened to him. Some people were able to find some clues and guessed that Youming Jiuchong might be the one who did it.

And Yun Shirou is just the daughter of a first-rank minister. No matter what, it must be impossible to find out who did it, right?

Xing Er shook her head, "Princess, no one outside knows who harmed Second Miss Yun. But some people speculated that it might be Miss Yao, or the remnants of the Yao family?"

"After all, Miss Yao and Miss Yun were good friends before. When Miss Yao got into trouble, Miss Yun didn't speak up for her, and their relationship broke down. Maybe someone from the Yao residence was taking revenge on Miss Yun."

Bei Liyi pondered, this argument made some sense. She remembered that Yao Leyi was still imprisoned in the military camp, and no one would believe that Yao Leyi didn't hate Yun Shirou.

However, Bei Liyi felt inexplicably anxious, her right eyelid kept twitching and her temple also throbbed a few times.

She put her hand to her heart, revealing an expression of hidden pain.

Xing'er panicked, "Princess, are you feeling unwell again?" The princess had been frightened and sick for quite some time, and she had been in poor health for years. What should she do?

"I will go and ask the doctor to come over."

"No need!" Bei Liyi said with difficulty, "I'm just temporarily weak."

Her eyes were fierce and she looked as if she wanted to eat someone.

"Xing'er, listen carefully! I was just frightened by Yun Mujiu and became ill. Other than that, there is nothing else wrong with my body! You must not let outsiders think that I have other illnesses!"

Xing'er was so scared that she knelt on the ground. Knowing how stubborn the princess was, she didn't dare to mention finding a doctor.

Bei Liyi glared at him again and ordered: "Especially don't let Yun Mujiu know that I have an abnormality, otherwise she will definitely harm me!"

She laughed at Yun Mujiu for being poisoned for many years. If Yun Mujiu found out that her body was worse than the one poisoned, she would definitely laugh at and humiliate her.

After scolding the maid, Bei Liyi still felt a little uneasy. She felt that Yun Shirou's incident was not an accident, but more like an action that had been planned for many days.

Suddenly, a terrible idea came into her mind.

That is, could it be Yun Mujiu who did it?

You know, the relationship between Yun Mujiu and Yun Shirou has reached the point where they are incompatible!

Bei Liyi showed a panicked look on her face, and quickly ordered the guards to check if Yun Mujiu really did not leave the house again. If, as Yun Shirou expected, Yun Mujiu was in a bad mood and stayed indoors, it would be a good thing, at least Yun Mujiu didn't want to cause trouble for them.

Ling Xingmu had been staying in the villa owned by Yun Mujiu to rest, but he also knew what was happening outside.

He smiled and sighed, "As expected of the capital, it is bustling! Since I arrived in the capital, it has been bustling all the time."

If he had stayed in the Northern Territory, how could he have learned the news so quickly? The capital was the first frontier for people to gossip about.

Whether it was the common people or the rich and powerful, many people were discussing the two major events that night. The major assassin organizations were extremely active.

That night, some people from the Biluo Blood Killing were furious. Why were there people from the Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion everywhere? The Netherworld Nineth Level was causing trouble again.

Envoy Xue was extremely depressed. They had always wanted to investigate the Ninth Layer of the Netherworld but had no idea where to start, while the Ninth Layer of the Netherworld had revealed itself on its own initiative.

As a large killer organization, they don’t even know the leader of a newly emerging killer organization. If this gets out, where will their reputation as Biluoxuesha be?

Envoy Xue looked at his subordinates with a bitter face and gritted his teeth and said, "Youming Jiuchong is such a ruthless person! Even we dare not directly offend the Crown Prince of Zhongyue Kingdom, but he actually slapped the Crown Prince and the Zhongyue Royal Family in the face."

He had to admit that Biluo couldn't match the courage and arrogance displayed by the Ninth Layer of the Netherworld!

In addition to Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion, the potential rivals of Biluo Xuesha include the old killer organization - Duohun Yuanxi. Strictly speaking, Biluo Xuesha is inferior to Duohun Yuanxi in all aspects. To Duohun, Biluo is not an opponent, but just a little brother who can't compare with them.

Netherworld Jiuchong did not deliberately conceal his tracks, so the Soul-stealing Yuanxi's people quickly found out the truth: it turned out that it was really Netherworld Jiuchong who beat the prince.

Shopkeeper Duan had a very serious expression on his face. He looked at the letter written back by his spy and did not speak for a long time.

Then, he suddenly laughed.

"Youming Jiuchong is a really interesting person. I have to report him to the hall master."

He immediately picked up his pen and wrote a letter, which was soon delivered by a carrier pigeon.

That night, many forces in the capital were busy in secret.

After a night passed, people got new news again.

This time they didn't need to investigate, as the Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion released the news automatically.

First, the Ninth Layer of the Netherworld punished the prince because the prince spoke rudely and showed disrespect to him first.

Second, Youming Jiuchong doesn’t like people calling him by his name.

The news circle in the capital exploded, causing a storm. With the words from Nether Nine, people were sure that the prince had really been beaten.

The lobbies of the teahouses were packed with people, and gossipers were talking about the scene with great relish.

A young man asked in confusion: "Oh! Who is Netherworld Nineth Layer? Why is he so arrogant?"

A middle-aged man immediately became serious: "Hush! Don't make comments about Lord Youming casually, don't you want to die?"

The young man's face changed slightly. Didn't Netherworld Nineth Layer release the news to warn everyone? Anyone who offends Netherworld Nineth Layer will be held accountable for the relevant punishment...

The young man immediately corrected himself and explained, "I didn't mean 'crazy' in a derogatory way, I meant it as a compliment." He then whispered, "Actually, I think the Ninth Layer of the Netherworld is pretty powerful. There's a kind of..."

Several people nearby nodded. They called Netherworld "Nine Layers of Netherworld", "Lord Netherworld", and some even used the name "Lord Netherworld" that Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion gave him.

In short, with the precedent of the prince's death, no one dared to call the name "Youming" in public. Everyone used respectful titles, fearing that they would also be punished by the people in the Underworld Palace.

...

After hearing the reactions of the crowd, Yun Mujiu became even more curious about Pavilion Master Mushi. Pavilion Master Mushi asked her to call him by his first name, but did not allow anyone else to do so, even if that person was the crown prince.

Yun Mujiu raised his eyebrows in thought, his face full of confusion.

"Why does Netherworld Nine seem to be a little bit unusual to me?"
