The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Yun Mujiu quickly calmed down and said with a serious face: "Your Majesty, you are too kind. It was because Mujiu was ignorant before that he made a lot of jokes in the capital, and also disappointed my grandfather, as well as my grandmother and mother who are in heaven."

She had no intention of blaming the Queen Mother, because there was no need for her to help her. Even if the Queen Mother had a good relationship with her grandmother, her grandmother was no longer alive. Moreover, the Queen Mother's status was extraordinary. How could she easily help a little girl with a bad record?

Besides, the Queen Mother didn't owe her anything, so she was very open-minded and didn't care whether the Queen Mother could give her any substantial help.

Meng risked her life to save the queen at a banquet, and the queen was very grateful to Meng for this. She and the emperor made an engagement especially for the child in Meng's belly.

Even though Meng was the one who saved people, it was not certain that the Queen would have shown her any special kindness.

Even her marriage to the prince was obstructed by the Queen. She was forced to marry Ye Xiaohan because of the Queen's intervention. The sneak attack on her wedding day with Ye Xiaohan was arranged by the Queen. Afterwards, the Queen also gave her a bracelet that could prevent pregnancy.

If you really look into it, the Queen is the truly ungrateful person.

The Queen Mother was stunned, thinking about Yun Mujiu's calm and serious words. Yun Mujiu did not mean to bear a grudge against her, but instead kindly said that her previous bad image made it the most normal thing for her not to help Yun Mujiu.

Yun Mujiu curled his lips and smiled: "Besides, most of the sufferings that Mujiu has suffered are related to the people in the Yun Mansion, and have little to do with outsiders. Even if I really want to blame someone, I should blame the people in the Yun Mansion first."

Some fragments of her youth emerged in the Queen Mother's mind, the scenes of her happy interactions with He, and the scenes of them asking General Meng about interesting things in the frontier and asking him for some martial arts knowledge.

The Queen Mother finally said: "Well... you are a very sensible child. You and the Night King are a perfect match."

The Queen Mother suddenly brought up Ye Xiaohan again, and Yun Mujiu smiled shyly.

"Well, it's getting late. You should go back. I have prepared a thank you gift for you and the Night King."

This is the medical fee given by the Queen Mother. Yun Mujiu cannot refuse it, otherwise he would be losing face for the Queen Mother.

Yun Mujiu agreed generously, bent down, turned around and walked away.

Outside Renshou Palace, Ye Chufeng and Princess Ji Ling were waiting for her to appear.

Yun Mujiu first glanced at Ye Chufeng, and saw a hint of deep meaning in his eyes. But with Princess Ji Ling present, there were some things that they couldn't communicate directly.

It’s not that I don’t trust Princess Ji Ling, but Princess Ji Ling’s situation in the royal family is not as good as other princes and princesses. She has no power or influence, so it’s better to tell her less about some dangerous news.

Although she didn't say anything, Yun Mujiu guessed that Ye Chufeng wanted to come to her rescue and take the opportunity to visit the Queen Mother to send her out of the palace safely. Princess Ji Ling's purpose was the same.

Yun Mujiu nodded slightly to Ye Chufeng and smiled at Princess Ji Ling, "Thank you very much."

"What are you thanking me for?" Princess Ji Ling smiled cheerfully. "It just so happens that I have to go to the palace today to do some things. Not only can I visit the Royal Grandmother, but I can also meet you. Let's leave the palace together later. I want to go back to the Princess' Mansion, and we are on the same route for a while."

"it is good."

"By the way, Mu Jiu, Sister Gao Yang sent me a wedding invitation. Will you go back to the Princess's residence then?"

"Well, I'll go."

"Then I'll go too." Princess Ji Ling took Yun Mujiu's arm and looked at Ye Chufeng again: "Seventh Brother, will you go?"

Ye Chufeng thought about it, raised the corner of his mouth and smiled evilly: "If there is good wine, I might go."

"Seventh Brother, maybe there is no good wine."

Princess Ji Ling was not familiar with Ye Chufeng, and had little contact with him. But she had never looked down on Ye Chufeng, and she treated him completely as a younger sister.

Princess Ji Ling and Ye Chufeng had similar life experiences, both of them had their biological mothers die young. When Princess Ji Ling was still an infant, her biological mother passed away due to illness. Unlike Princess Gao Yang, who once had a favored mother, her status in the palace was naturally not as high as Princess Gao Yang's.

Ye Chufeng shrugged: "If not, then I might not go."

Everyone smiled and the atmosphere was lively.

Later, under the guidance of the maid of Renshou Palace, Yun Mujiu and his party walked towards the palace gate. Ye Chufeng and Princess Ji Ling occasionally introduced some layouts and scenery inside the palace to Yun Mujiu.

The three of them met many palace maids, eunuchs, and patrolling guards along the way, but fortunately they did not meet any other people.

For example, people around the emperor and the queen.

When he was about to walk out of the imperial garden, Yun Mujiu saw a middle-aged woman dressed as a concubine from afar.

Yun Mujiu raised his eyebrows slightly and took the lead in speaking to the people around him: "Isn't that Concubine Liang?"

Princess Ji Ling and Ye Chufeng were surprised. How come Concubine Liang suddenly appeared on their way to the palace gate?

Ye Chufeng reminded: "Aunt, Empress Liang has been going out quite frequently recently, and she even asked the Imperial Study to look for my father early this morning."

As for why Concubine Liang went to see the emperor? Of course, it was because of her only son, Prince Di. It is said that Concubine Liang learned from the palace that the emperor had ordered people to clean up Prince Di's mansion. It turned out that Prince Di was about to return to the capital.

But Yun Mujiu and Ye Chufeng thought about it and realized that Concubine Liang had not just learned about Prince Di. She had known about it for a long time, but had always pretended not to know. Now that Prince Di still hadn't returned, she could only rush the emperor to implement the itinerary for Prince Di to return to Beijing.

Yun Mujiu and his group walked towards Concubine Liang, and Yun Mujiu smiled at Concubine Liang. She was the concubine of the Night King, and her rank was higher than that of an ordinary concubine like Concubine Liang. Moreover, she was the wife of the Night King, and her generation was about the same as Concubine Liang. She couldn't lose face for the Night King's Mansion when she was outside.

Concubine Liang smiled and could only take the initiative to greet him: "Princess Ye. Why are you here?"

"Empress Liang, I'm here to see the Queen Mother."

Concubine Liang glanced at Ye Chufeng and Princess Ji Ling, and the latter two took the initiative to greet her.

Concubine Liang said that she wanted to have a few private words with Princess Ye, so Yun Mujiu asked Ye Chufeng, Princess Ji Ling and others to step aside first.

Concubine Liang pretended to ask about the empress dowager's illness and then asked about Ye Xiaohan's condition.

Yun Mujiu said some vague words, saying that the Night King was not in good health and she was unable to take care of him recently.

Concubine Liang raised her eyes and said, "Alas, I don't know why Prince Di has never returned to the capital."

"Is King Di going back to Beijing?" Yun Mujiu looked surprised, as if he heard the news that King Di was going back to Beijing for the first time.

Concubine Liang stared at Yun Mujiu's expression. Yun Mujiu was so surprised. Did the Night King and Yun Mujiu not know that Chu Di was going back to the capital? Was it not the people in the Night King's Mansion who caused Chu Di to be unable to return to the capital smoothly because of the "accident"?

Yun Mujiu greeted Concubine Liang's gaze with ease and a very calm demeanor.

No matter who comes, she sends them away!
