The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Chapter 454: Time flies, the Queen Mother and Duke Meng's feelings

Bei Liyi was so angry that her mouth was shaking, and she was also dissatisfied with Gao Yang and Wu Mingwei. Yun Mujiu and the Night King seemed to have a good relationship, and Yun Mujiu didn't look like a pawn used by the Night King.

Receiving Princess Gao Yang's cold reminder, she walked up to Yun Shirou and pushed Yao Leyi who was next to Yun Shirou.

He lowered his voice, "What happened? Didn't it work last night?"

Yun Shirou pursed her lips tightly and said nothing.

Yao Leyi's face turned as pale as a dead person, "I didn't find an opportunity last night..."

Bei Liyi's face suddenly turned cold, "What do you mean?"

Yao Leyi said: "Princess Ye went to bed very late last night..."

Bei Liyi said sullenly with anger in her eyes. "That's enough." Then she asked Yun Shirou, "Are you okay with your injury?"

Yun Shirou shook her head and said with a breath held, "It's okay, I can hold on for a few days."

A hint of satisfaction flashed across Bei Liyi's eyes, and her face still showed concern for Yun Shirou.

"I'll have my maid bring you some medicine later."

"Thank you princess."

Bei Liyi returned to her original position and shook her head slightly at Gao Yang.

Gao Yang groaned, which made Prince Consort Cao beside him nervous. Prince Consort Cao sighed: Is this master angry again?

At that time, the seat of Yun Xiang was crowded with people, and many officials came to inquire about Yun Xiang's recent situation. Since Yun Xiang was caned by the emperor last time, he has been resting in the mansion.

This time the palace banquet suddenly appeared, and Yun Xiang’s colleagues, subordinates, opponents, and other officials who were curious about the matter all gathered around.

Some people were concerned about Yun Xiang's health, some were trying to find out what was going on between the Yun Mansion and the Ye Mansion, and some just wanted to "comfort" Yun Xiang.

Some officials even brought their unmarried women family members to Yun Xiang, and the women greeted him in sweet voices, looking very caring and attentive.

Yun Xiang looked quite surprised. He didn't expect that there was a woman who cared about him.

During his stay in the Yun Mansion over the past two days, other officials occasionally came to visit him with their female relatives, and now some people took the opportunity of the palace banquet to express their concern for him.

Gradually, Yun Xiang's heart began to lift up, his face filled with smiles for the visitors, and he showed a gentle and elegant attitude to the woman who cared about him.

Seeing this scene, Yun Shirou's face turned pale.

As expected, after the news of the discord between his father and mother spread in the capital, coupled with the complete fall of the Ye family, countless people were eyeing the position of the mistress of the Yun residence.

Even if it is not the position of mistress, there are many people eyeing the positions of other concubines.

Her situation became even more critical!

Yun Mujiu raised his lips and smiled playfully.

"Yun Boliang is already old, but there are still so many people who want to be with him. It seems that the deserted Yun Mansion will soon cease to exist. Yun Boliang also advertised that he was loyal and had only one wife. In fact, it was not true. He just didn't have the opportunity to show his philandering mind."

Looking at Yun Mujiu's cunning smile, Ye Xiaohan also curled his lips.

"Mumu is awesome, what a great idea."

Yun Mujiu smiled, "I swore to let Yun Boliang and Ye Shi taste what my mother felt back then. Yun Shirou also wants to taste what I once felt."

Ye Xiaohan's heart tightened, and his eyes were fixed on Yun Mujiu. Mumu, you have suffered for many years...

"Yes, Mu Mu will get what he wants."

A beautiful woman, after paying respect to Prime Minister Yun, returned to her seat and at the same time, she carefully glanced at Prime Minister You.

At this time, many people were riding their horses on the hunting grounds of Boshan. Some of them even went into the bushes half a person's height, while others rode into the woods outside the hunting grounds.

The competition has entered a white-hot stage, and it remains to be seen what the contestants will gain in total.

Yun Mujiu and Bai Yanshuang strolled to the seats at the Meng Mansion and asked Duke Meng about interesting things happening in the frontier.

Duke Meng and Meng Shihao answered them seriously, and occasionally they laughed.

The Queen Mother came down from the high platform and strolled around casually. She stayed in Renshou Palace all year round, and people rarely had the opportunity to see her.

Seeing the Queen Mother coming to see them, they all chatted with her enthusiastically and offered her tea.

Soon, the Queen Mother stopped in front of the seat at the Meng Mansion.

Duke Meng's family, Yun Mujiu and Bai Yanshuang quickly stood up and saluted to the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother smiled faintly, "The Spring Outing Banquet is for everyone to get together and enjoy the spring scenery. You don't need to be polite."

Yun Mujiu and others agreed.

The Queen Mother looked at Duke Meng and said calmly, "I haven't seen Duke Meng for more than 20 years. I wonder if he is doing well?"

Duke Meng nodded slightly, and replied in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Everything is fine with this old minister. Please take care of yourself, Queen Mother..."

The Queen Mother sighed silently in her heart and smiled faintly.

"I am old, and so is the Duke. I don't know how many of the people I used to know who were my age have already passed away. The only ones left are me, Duke Meng, and some other people I haven't had much contact with..."

A trace of sadness appeared in Duke Meng's eyes, and he also had such feelings.

After being away from Beijing for more than 18 years, I returned to the old place and heard that many of my old friends had either passed away or were seriously ill at home. How could I not have complicated emotions?

Duke Meng paused and bent slightly.

"The Queen Mother is right. Time flies, and it is inevitable that people will feel sad. The Queen Mother is of noble status, so she should take better care of herself."

To outsiders, the ordinary conversation between the Queen Mother and Duke Meng was an expression of their regret for the ruthless passage of time.

The Queen Mother nodded, "Duke Meng is the same." Then she continued, "When He died, it was a pity that I was far away in the capital and could not see her."

"It's alright, the past is over, your Majesty, there's no need to worry about it."

Duke Meng's eyes showed a trace of sorrow, and then he said seriously: "Before my wife passed away, she thought of the Queen Mother, and everyone in the Meng Mansion also hopes that the Queen Mother will be in good health."

This was said in a very official manner, and it also expressed respect for a person of such noble status as the Queen Mother.

"I know." The Queen Mother looked at Yun Mujiu with admiration in her eyes: "Mujiu, you are a good child. You should live a good life with the prince. I hope you can live a stable and happy life."

Yun Mujiu bowed, "Mujiu understands."

The Queen Mother turned and left, and Yun Mujiu inexplicably felt something strange in his heart. He turned around and saw Duke Meng's indifferent expression, and his heart was blocked.

Ye Xiaohan was pushed over by Wei Bai. The Meng family and Bai Yanshuang wanted to greet him, but Ye Xiaohan stopped them: "No need to be polite. I just came to say hello to Duke Meng."

Duke Meng is Yun Mujiu's maternal grandfather. For Yun Mujiu's sake, Ye Xiaohan treated the Meng family politely and greeted Duke Meng with respect.

Afterwards, Ye Xiaohan noticed the worry in Yun Mujiu's eyes, but since it was not convenient at the moment, he suppressed his doubts.

Someone exclaimed, "Why are there fewer people in the hunting ground? Have they gone down the mountain?"

"Yes, I just saw some big trees moving in the woods from the hillside to the foot of Mount Bo."

"Maybe they were chasing some prey along the way!"

There was an indistinct sound of horse hooves in the distance.

Yun Mujiu and Ye Xiaohan also heard the sound of sharp arrows piercing into the tree trunk.

The two of them focused their attention at the same time, looking straight to the bottom of the wave mountain...
