The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Chapter 576: The Past, the Queen Mother and Duke Meng

Not long after, Yingliu returned to Ye Mansion, holding a carrier pigeon with flapping wings.

Yun Mujiu glanced at the contents of the letter and sneered. "Repairing the body? This secret technique is quite special."

"Don't even think about it!"

Du Ziheng was puzzled. "No one in Duti Valley knows this secret technique, and I have never heard of anyone who knows it in many years. Maybe this secret technique is just a legend."

Yun Mujiu tore up the letter and said calmly, "I can do it. But it will take surgery."

Du Ziheng and Ying Liu both raised their eyebrows. The princess could even perform this kind of surgery? Amazing!

Yingliu asked: "Princess, what should we do with this pigeon?"

"Lock him up for a few days first, then write a reply letter and return it to the Yun Mansion along with the pigeon."

Yun Mujiu smiled faintly, but the smile did not reach his eyes. "That old man Yun Boliang dared to conceal even the emperor for the sake of power. He is really blinded by power."

However, Yun Boliang might not climb to a higher position in the future. Yun Boliang likes power, so she wants to make him fall from a high position to a low position to see what Yun Boliang is still proud of.

...

It has been a long time since I came to this new world. At first, Yun Mujiu was not used to this kind of life. There were no electronic products, no convenient transportation, and fewer entertainment options than in the modern world.

But you will get used to it slowly, this world has a different kind of fun. The pace of life is slow, the environment is pleasant, the air is fresh, and the food and drinks are all natural.

Yun Mujiu can be said to be living a simple life.

If she doesn't have anything special to do every day, she usually reads some paper books before going to bed and then goes to bed early.

The next morning, she woke up automatically according to her own biological clock and began her daily martial arts training.

On this day, Yun Mujiu was practicing martial arts in the courtyard of Qichiyuan as usual.

Ye Xiaohan came over later and continued to teach Yun Mujiu some Qinggong skills. With the guidance of Ye Xiaohan, Yun Mujiu's Qinggong movements were more stable than before.

Yun Mujiu smiled happily and kept praising Ye Xiaohan.

Ye Xiaohan smiled and said to Yun Mujiu, "Yes, you have some talent for martial arts. I only taught you a few times, and you have improved so quickly."

Yun Mujiu blinked and said, "The prince taught me personally, how could I not study hard? Naturally, I had to work hard to learn it well."

Ye Xiaohan raised his lips and thought: Yun Mujiu has become more and more talkative recently and likes to joke with him more and more.

However, this kind of Yun Mujiu was vivid and lively, showing him her true side. He liked to see Yun Mujiu showing his true nature to him.

After completing their daily martial arts practice, the two men came to the flower hall for breakfast.

The two finished their breakfast quietly, then Ye Xiaohan put down his teacup and looked at Yun Mujiu.

Yun Mujiu knew that Ye Xiaohan had something important to say.

Ye Xiaohan said bluntly: "I have found some information about the Queen Mother."

Yun Mujiu once again recalled the Queen Mother's various behaviors at the palace banquet, especially the time when the Queen Mother visited her grandfather to reminisce about the past. At that time, they suspected that there might be some connection between the Queen Mother and her grandmother and grandfather. However, the Queen Mother had been living in the deep palace for a long time, and even Ye Xiaohan didn't know much about the Queen Mother's past.

Yun Mujiu was curious, "Your Majesty, tell me."

Ye Xiaohan said calmly, "Some years ago, when the Queen Mother was young, she met Duke Meng at a hunting competition. At that time, Duke Meng was a young general, and the Queen Mother was a famous talented woman from a noble family in the capital."

Yun Mujiu wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, thinking of the rumors she had found among the people in the capital. "So that hunting competition should have been the scene where the Queen Mother and my grandfather officially met for the first time."

"Yes." Ye Xiaohan continued, "The annual spring banquet held by the royal family has certain requirements for guests. Generally, officials below the third rank and their families are not invited."

Yun Mujiu understood, "That year, my grandfather was promoted, and because of his outstanding performance on the battlefield, he participated in the Spring Festival Banquet for the first time."

Ye Xiaohan added: "At that time, there was another person who also participated in the Spring Outing Banquet."

"Who?"

"The eldest daughter of the He family."

Yun Mujiu raised his eyebrows, "Your Majesty, you are talking about my grandmother, right? Her last name is He."

Ye Xiaohan nodded, "The He family does not live in the capital, but in the Jiangnan area. It happened that your grandmother was ill during those years, and your father's official position was transferred to the capital, so the whole family moved to the capital and lived there for many years."

Yun Mujiu guessed something. "That is to say, my grandmother appeared at the palace banquet for the first time in the first year after she moved to the capital, and then she also got to know some people in the capital, including the empress dowager who was not yet the empress dowager at that time, and my grandfather."

Ye Xiaohan continued, "That hunting competition was the first time the three of them officially met. The three of them established a light friendship, and then gradually began to contact each other. However, it was not frequent. The Queen Mother occasionally contacted the old lady, and the old man occasionally appeared at some palace banquets."

Yun Mujiu rested his hands on the table, supporting his chin. "Your Highness, I have chatted with my grandfather before, and I know that he would appear at some large banquets when he was in Beijing in his early years. My uncle also whispered to me that my grandfather was full of vigor and vitality at that time, and was a young general. Many noble ladies in Beijing were attracted to my grandfather."

Ye Xiaohan recalled the news in his mind, "Indeed. I heard some news, and my father has praised the old man many times."

Yun Mujiu turned his head and met Ye Xiaohan's gaze.

There was a hint of slightly complicated emotions in the eyes of the two men. It seemed that the Queen Mother was showing favor to Yun Mujiu - this might be because of Duke Meng or He.

However, no more information has been found yet, so all doubts are buried in my heart for now.

Ye Xiaohan looked at the thoughtful Yun Mujiu and said calmly: "Mumu, don't worry, we will slowly find out."

Yun Mujiu nodded heavily, "Grandfather seems reluctant to talk about the past. I can't bring up the fact that the Queen Mother reacted differently to me before and after my marriage."

His tone was somewhat serious, and he continued - "There are not many clues about the flower seal in the Meng Mansion. Perhaps my life experience and the flower seal have a slight connection with my grandmother or the queen mother."

Ye Xiaohan raised his hand and rubbed Yun Mujiu's hair, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes.

Yun Mujiu felt a little warm in her heart and gave Ye Xiaohan a bright smile, with her two dimples exuding a sweet breath.

No matter how many doubts and problems lie ahead, she is less afraid with Xiao Xiao by her side.

Yun Mujiu was calm and had no fear. On the other side, Yun Xiang was extremely scared and looked trembling.

Prime Minister Yun had already sent a pigeon to deliver the letter, so he should just wait for the reply. But when he thought about how he dared to hide it from the emperor, and that Yun Shirou was still in bed recovering from her illness, his head started to hurt.

At this time, the servant came hurriedly to report: "Master! It's bad! It's bad!"

Yun Xiang was furious, "Why make such a fuss!"

The servant was about to cry: "The Second Miss is dying!"
