The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Hearing that Wei Bai suspected that Duohun had ulterior motives, Wei Bai also looked solemn.

Ye Xiaohan's expression was calm, but the Soul-stealing Yuanxi's behavior was indeed a little abnormal.

Although they were also a killer organization that was taught a lesson by him, the Biluoxuesha was different.

Biluo's special envoy Xue also wrote a letter back to the Dongyang headquarters to report him. Although as he expected - Biluo of the Zhongyue branch did not dare to confront him, at least Biluo's vengeful reaction should be a normal phenomenon.

The Biluo people are rarely upright. Even if they are in the wrong first, they will not argue too much. They will take advantage of anyone who disobeys them and make them unhappy.

Biluo is shameless and does not dare to confront Mushi rashly due to the situation.

Ye Xiaohan glanced at the man in black and said calmly, "I have dealt with the soul-stealing killer before, but the soul-stealing killer didn't react in the early stages."

As soon as these words came out, the people present thought of the news from a while ago. At that time, Netherworld eliminated several assassins from the two major assassin organizations. A few days later, the Cold Shadow Guard found out the order issued by the Soul Stealer: "It is not allowed to rashly inquire or even disturb the Pavilion Master of the Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion, Netherworld Nineth Layer."

Ye Xiaohan said to the man in black, "After that, Soul Stealer stopped reacting. After Biluo had the idea of ​​dealing with me recently, Soul Stealer also calmed down."

Even Ye Xiaohan felt that the Soul Stealer seemed to be a little unusual for the "Nine Layers of the Netherworld".

The man in black guessed, "Lord Ming, could it be that the Soul Stealing Organization is decent, so they always abide by their duties and would not come to provoke Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion for no reason?"

Ye Xiaohan shook his head slightly.

Wei Bo continued, "It was normal for us to think this way before. After all, Soul Stealer is an old organization with a much longer history than Biluo, so naturally they are not as shameless as Biluo."

Wei Bo ridiculed Biluo, and then asked in confusion - "But, what happened before was what happened before. Now Soul-Snatching still has no reaction. When Biluo and the Emperor and others wanted to investigate Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion, Soul-Snatching did not take any action..."

Ye Xiaohan's eyes fluctuated, and he added a key piece of information: "In terms of business, Soul Taker is also calm and steady, and he looks at Mu Shi calmly..."

"Your Highness is right! What's more, they are not jealous of our business. Unlike other major organizations, they are not trying to steal our business or secretly trip us up!" Wei Bai was a little distressed and scratched his head unconsciously.

Wei Song thought hard and suddenly asked, "Prince, do you know anyone in the upper echelons of Soul Stealer? Or, have you ever had any contact with anyone inside Soul Stealer?"

Duohun looked at Mushi calmly and did not take any action. To a certain extent, this was a kind of hidden kindness.

“No.” Ye Xiaohan searched his memory and denied it again—“I don’t know the soul-stealer, and I don’t know who the soul-stealer’s boss is. Also, I have never had direct contact with the soul-stealer.”

In the past, when there was a need, Ye Xiaohan had placed orders with the soul-stealing killer as the regent. But it was limited to normal order exchanges, and there was no in-depth contact.

Moreover, his other identity was Netherworld Ninth Layer. No one in the outside world knew that Prince Ye was the Master of Mushi Pavilion. And Netherworld Ninth Layer, apart from the dozens of assassins who killed the Soul Taker last time, had no contact with the Soul Taker again, not even basic transactions!

Ye Xiaohan glanced at everyone's faces and tapped the table with his fingers. The room was silent for a moment, with only the crisp and regular rhythmic tapping sounds.

After a while, Ye Xiaohan quickly stopped.

"There's something fishy about the soul-stealing incident, but at least they don't have any ill intentions towards the Night Mansion or the Underworld Palace at the moment."

"Just keep an eye on the Soul Taker. I will find a chance to find out the truth..."

Everyone nodded, and Ye Xiaohan shifted his gaze to the man in black.

"The Underworld Palace normally accepts various orders, including orders from the emperor." With money delivered to your door, why not make money?

"Yes, I understand!" The man in black nodded and disappeared in a flash.

Ye Xiaohan picked up the teacup and took a sip. His eyes were like the calm sea, deep and peaceful.

He put down the teacup, and heard footsteps coming closer and closer outside the door.

"Is the prince in the study?"

"My princess, the prince is discussing matters with General Wei and Master Wei."

"Okay. Then I'll wait for the prince here. Butler Zeng, is it convenient for me to stand here?" It won't disturb Ye Xiaohan and the others, right?

"Oh, what are you talking about, Princess? Of course it is convenient. But it is so tiring to stand outside. How about I take you to sit under the stone bench in the courtyard?"

"Yeah, that's okay."

Yun Mujiu followed Butler Zeng to the stone table and sat down.

In front of the stone table and chairs there is a row of tall trees with lush branches and leaves.

Yun Mujiu looked up, her mind racing. She thought about how she was woken up by the sound of birds in the morning when she slept in Ye Xiaohan's bedroom. Later, Ye Xiaohan, that cold-hearted man, actually quietly sent people to chase the birds away, and even dispatched the Cold Shadow Guards to deal with a group of birds. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was using a butcher knife to kill a chicken. Oh no, it was using a butcher knife to kill an ant.

I have to say, Ye Xiaohan is really interesting, cute and funny!

Yun Mujiu smiled and glanced around.

"Why are there so many fallen leaves? Doesn't anyone clean the yard?"

There is a large open space under the tree, covered with leaves, more green leaves than yellow leaves. Most of the yellow leaves are naturally withered and fallen, while these green leaves are more likely to have fallen due to human intervention.

Butler Zeng was stunned and was about to answer.

Yun Mujiu was surprised: "Hey! Why do most of the leaves have a small hole in the middle!" She bent down, picked up a fallen leaf, and looked at it with wide eyes.

Could it be that someone is practicing martial arts here?

Isn’t the one who can practice martial arts in Huayang Academy Ye Xiaohan?

"Mu Mu." A voice called out.

Yun Mujiu sat on the stone bench, straightened his back, and looked over.

"Your Majesty."

"Would you like to have lunch?"

"No, no." Yun Mujiu's face flashed a trace of unnaturalness, "Wait for the prince to have dinner together."

"Okay, let's have dinner together." Ye Xiaohan took a big step and walked up to Yun Mujiu.

Butler Zeng bowed to Ye Xiaohan and then went downstairs to have the meal prepared.

Yun Mujiu usually felt a lot of pressure just standing in front of Ye Xiaohan, because Ye Xiaohan was tall and had a sharp and majestic aura. Now she was sitting on the chair, and Ye Xiaohan was standing in front of her, looking down at her.

stressed!

Ye Xiaohan looked down at Yun Mujiu steadily, with the corners of his lips slightly raised. From this angle, he saw Yun Mujiu with a little more cuteness and childishness.

"Like a child."

"Ah?" Yun Mujiu was in a trance, pointing at his cheek and asked, "Your Majesty said I look like a child?"

"Yeah." Mu Mu's eyes are as pure as a child's. How could they not look like a child's?

"No way!" Yun Mujiu considered herself a mature and steady person. She was used to working in the hospital. She was young but had extraordinary qualifications. Everyone liked to call her "sister". "I am a mature girl!"

Ye Xiaohan laughed and raised his hand to pinch Yun Mujiu's cheek. Yun Mujiu was thinking about Ye Xiaohan, and when she saw Ye Xiaohan suddenly smiling at her, she immediately became confused.

Yun Mujiu's pink oval face was pulled open by Ye Xiaohan's two big hands, and her little face was suddenly widened, like a small bun.

Ye Xiaohan smiled again, and the serious mood he had just been in due to being busy with official duties was swept away, and his calm mood became much better.

Ye Xiaohan laughed twice, which not only charmed Yun Mujiu, but also shocked the servants and guards of Huayang Courtyard, as well as Wei Song and Wei Bai, so much that their jaws almost dropped. Their mouths were so big that they could fit an egg in them!

Are they sure? Is that the prince?

Am I seeing that? Is that their prince?
