The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Ye Chufeng recalled that he had actually seen the farce at Herb Hall, and he had seen it live. At the time, he was hiding among the people in front of the Herb Hall, quietly watching the dynamics inside the Herb Hall.

He also thought about helping Yun Mujiu, but when he saw Yun Mujiu's calm appearance, and remembered that Yun Mujiu was always able to deal with all kinds of troubles that followed with ease, he immediately gave up the idea of ​​going forward to help secretly.

He didn't want to disrupt Yun Mujiu's plan because of his impulsiveness.

So he stood outside the door and watched the show, and from time to time he spoke to other people who supported Herbal Hall and Yun Mujiu, saying good things about Herbal Hall and the Night King and his wife.

In addition, some indignant people followed suit and cursed the damn Xu Houshan, and whispered about the master behind the scenes who instigated Xu Houshan to cause trouble in Caocaotang and their real intentions.

Ye Chufeng collected his thoughts and said faintly: "Father, can't you sit still anymore..."

If he guessed correctly, his father had already decided to deal with Yun Mujiu.

"Seventh Prince, why do you say that?" Cang Feng asked seriously with a trace of worry on his face. How did the Seventh Prince guess that?

"Cang Feng, it should be that the emperor sent his subordinate Xu Houshan to the Herb Hall to cause trouble, and took advantage of Xu Houshan's death from taking medicine to cause trouble for Yun Mujiu and even Uncle Ye. Unexpectedly, Yun Mujiu saved Xu Houshan and cracked the frame-up plot implemented by Xu Houshan and his group."

"Another point is that the emperor has ordered that Princess Bei Liyi be allowed to freely enter and leave the envoy's villa in the next few days. However, Princess Bei has always been at odds with Yun Mujiu. Could it be that the emperor wants someone else to deal with Yun Mujiu again?"

Facing Cang Feng's doubts, Ye Chufeng gave two reasonable arguments. Just from the two things he said, it was enough to see his father's calculations towards Yun Mujiu.

"Seventh Prince, do we need to send a warning message to the Night King's Palace?"

"No need." Ye Chufeng refused. "There is no need."

Ye Chufeng's move was correct, because what he, a bystander, could analyze, Yun Mujiu, as the person involved, could certainly analyze better.

Yun Mujiu had his own way of dealing with the situation, so he didn't need to contact the Night Palace, just to avoid causing trouble for Uncle Ye and the others. If Uncle Ye and the others needed him, he could just take action in time.

Moreover, he had previously passed the news to the Night Palace, but the Night Palace had already anticipated and prepared for it.

Ye Chufeng heard the noise coming from the street and called Cangfeng to close the windows.

After Ye Chufeng finished drinking another cup of warm water and did a set of eye exercises taught by Yun Mujiu, someone knocked on the door of his box.

"Young Master." This was Jiang Fei's voice.

"Come in." Ye Chufeng said in a cold voice.

Jiang Fei opened the door and walked in, saluting to Ye Chufeng.

Ye Chufeng waved his hand, thinking of Yun Mujiu whom he met in the Herb Hall, and then thought of another thing.

His tone sank, and he said coldly to Jiang Fei: "Misfortune comes from the mouth, so don't talk nonsense."

Jiang Fei was stunned and lowered his head: "Seventh Prince, I don't know what I did wrong, I hope you can give me some advice."

Ye Chufeng started to settle old scores that he had wanted to settle for a long time, and his tone became serious.

"The king sent you to monitor the two men in Duti Valley. Didn't you encounter the secret guards around Princess Ye?"

"Yes, I encountered Shadow Six."

"Don't speculate on things that are not true. Otherwise, won't it cause trouble to others?"

Ye Chufeng spoke very seriously today, with the dignity of an old teacher giving a lecture.

Jiang Fei was a businessman with a quick mind, so he figured it out quickly.

Before he could even open his mouth, Ye Chufeng continued to lecture him, "Yun Mujiu hasn't said anything yet, how can you make so many ridiculous guesses about Ying Liu for no reason—"

"Du Guier likes the Night King, and she targeted Yun Mujiu just for the Night King. She also stayed in the capital for the Night King... You can't make up stories about everything!"

Jiang Fei's face changed slightly, and a look of regret surged across his face.

"Jiang Fei," Ye Chufeng paused and said earnestly, "Uncle Ye is helpful to me, and so is his wife Yun Mujiu. Before we have solid evidence, we must not speculate about the relationship between Du Gui'er and Uncle Ye, or what she thinks of Uncle Ye."

"If Yun Mujiu heard this, wouldn't it cause her to have wild thoughts or even feel sad? And your empty speculations like this might also affect the relationship between Uncle Ye and Aunt Ye."

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Fei and Cang Feng stared at Ye Chufeng with surprise in their eyes. Why do they feel that the Seventh Prince loves Ye Chufeng so much?

Ye Chufeng glanced at them coldly, and the two of them lowered their heads quickly: "I understand, and I will follow the instructions of the Seventh Prince."

"It's my fault. I won't say anything nonsense next time." Jiang Fei felt a little regretful. He shouldn't have lost control of his mouth and talked a little more with Ying Liu. He lowered his head and suggested carefully, "How about I explain a few more words to Ying Liu when I go to monitor those two people in Duti Valley?"

"Ying Liu has been guarding Yun Mujiu recently. You won't run into him on duty in Du Houpu's hiding place."

Jiang Fei was a little discouraged, and Ye Chufeng said calmly: "It's okay, as long as you know your mistakes and can correct them. When I have a chance to meet Uncle and Aunt Ye, I will explain it to you."

Jiang Fei breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to thank Ye Chufeng.

Ye Chufeng had no intention of talking about this matter any further. He seldom disciplined his subordinates and would only say a few more words on some key events to order them to correct their mistakes.

Those useless subordinates never had the chance to work for him. Some people who were selected to work for him would eventually be transferred or expelled because of their incompetence. That was why he usually didn't bother to lecture his subordinates. There was no need to waste his time.

After Ye Chufeng finished his reminder, he thought about the emperor’s recent actions.

Regardless of whether others know about his father's situation, he, as a prince living in the palace, knows best what is going on in the Imperial Study.

He knew that his father had urgently dispatched a group of imperial guards, and that he had done so very cautiously. It seemed that no one in the court had noticed his father's troop movement.

Your Majesty is so cautious, which shows that your Majesty’s troop deployment is very secretive and is not known to anyone else.

At first, he spent quite some time searching but could not find out what his father was trying to do. He only knew that his father had summoned his confidants to hold several meetings and had vented his anger several times in the imperial study.

But soon after, he thought of the time when his father sent troops to search for the Nantai team outside the capital, and guessed that his father might be investigating some team this time, maybe the same team as last time...

"Eh..." Ye Chufeng suddenly groaned in confusion, and then pondered - "It seems that there has been no news from Uncle Ye for some time? Uncle Ye didn't show up yesterday either?"

While Ye Chufeng was confused, another subordinate came to report new news—

Princess Ye suddenly fell ill, and Prince Ye's old illness relapsed. Now both of them are recuperating in the Ye Palace and are not seeing anyone!
