Chapter 687: Love and Following the Regent
Her real name in her previous life was Yun Mujiu, so there was no need to change her surname just because she was no longer related to the Yun family. If she changed her favorite surname because of the Yun family, there would be no need or meaning. There were many people with the surname Yun in the world.
Yun Mujiu finished informing everyone and saw that everyone in the Yun residence looked very embarrassed, but she did not have a single other emotion in her heart.
Yun Xiang gritted his teeth. It was fine that the Night King had come to the Yun Mansion with such a big fanfare, but now Yun Mujiu had openly revealed the truth to everyone. He couldn't even hide the news of the divorce! The Night King and his wife were really difficult people!
Ye Xiaohan's gaze fell on Yun Mujiu, and his cold eyes seemed to have some tenderness.
Yun Mujiu looked back and gave Ye Xiaohan an affirmative look.
Ye Xiaohan understood and said in a cold voice: "Let's go."
The crowd started to stir again...
It was such a rare thing to see the Night King's guard of honor again! It was already evening, and the sunlight under the setting sun was just right, not hot and bright. Looking at the magnificent guard of honor in front of them, everyone became more interested in following.
Yun Mujiu and Ye Xiaohan returned to the carriage, and the guard of honor set off again, heading towards the Yun Mansion.
As soon as the people from the Night Palace left, there were suddenly fewer people in front of Prime Minister Yun’s gate.
Yun Xiang and his daughter recalled what King Ye and his wife had done to them, and they were both so angry that their blood boiled. They both had headaches and dizziness, and could only be supported by servants to enter the palace.
The two of them were wondering: Is it because they are too weak? They have been having terrible headaches these past few days, and their heads are dizzy and heavy, and they are not thinking as clearly as before?
Meng Shihao and Meng Ninglang each rode a maroon horse, guarding on both sides of the carriage.
Yun Mujiu was sitting in the car when he heard some noise coming from behind the guard of honor and was about to open the curtain to take a look.
But Meng Shihao said, "Prince, Mu Jiu, the people are following us."
"It doesn't matter, let them follow." Ye Xiaohan said calmly.
Yun Mujiu was curious, "Why don't you all disperse?"
Ye Xiaohan said, "I think they want to follow us to the Meng Mansion." Then, he added, "Also, Duke Meng has a good reputation in Zhongyue, and some people also want to help Duke Meng's Mansion and help escort the tablet..."
Yun Mujiu nodded and added: "Also, many people probably want to see you more, Your Majesty. After all, they rarely have the chance to see you."
Even though the Night King is currently in a declining position in the eyes of the public, there are still people who love the Night King. The war god of Zhongyue has led his army to fight in all directions and repelled foreign armies many times, thus maintaining the stability of Zhongyue. No matter what the Night King's current situation is, they will always have a high status for him in their hearts.
Ye Xiaohan thought of his people, his lips slightly curved, and he said nothing. As the regent, although he had a reputation of being cruel and bloodthirsty, in reality, he was upright and responsible in dealing with state affairs and people's livelihood.
People may say that the Regent is cruel and brutal, but they would not say that he killed innocent civilians indiscriminately, nor would they say that he is corrupt and just sitting in office doing nothing.
Yun Mujiu guessed correctly that the people did come to see Ye Xiaohan. But Yun Mujiu did not guess that some people also came to follow Yun Mujiu.
Yun Mujiu's reputation and image in the capital and even in Zhongyue State are getting better and better, and many people have received Yun Mujiu's direct or indirect favors. Everyone also has a loving heart towards this magical Princess Ye.
Before it got dark, Yun Mujiu and others arrived at the gate of the Meng Mansion.
Duke Meng ignored Yi's persuasion and insisted on going to the door to greet Yun Mujiu and Ye Xiaohan. He also wanted to see Meng's tablet as soon as possible.
The reason why Yun Mujiu didn't want Duke Meng to go out was that he didn't want to irritate Duke Meng at the first opportunity. Seeing so many people escorting the tablet, and seeing the tablet of his deceased daughter for the first time, how could the old man Duke Meng stay calm?
However, Duke Meng's hands trembled slightly, but he still managed to appear in front of everyone. Since Mu Jiu and King Ye were coming to the mansion, he had to greet them in person.
When he glanced at the tablet in Yun Mujiu's arms, tears slowly welled up in Duke Meng's eyes.
Yun Mujiu and Ye Xiaohan paused, and after meeting Duke Meng, they said a few words of greeting to him.
Then, the two men turned around and told the people behind them to go home quickly as it was getting dark.
Everyone had watched the fun for a while, and they knew that King Ye and his wife would stay in the Meng Mansion for a long time, so they didn't need to wait here any longer.
After the personal guards of Prince Ye's Palace were dismissed, peace returned to the gate of the Meng Mansion.
"Let's go!" A man turned and left. I've seen enough. There's nothing more to see.
"Yes, Second Prince." Tu Dan squeezed next to Wanyan Gu, and the two of them walked away through the crowd with their shoulders close together.
Wanyan Gu smiled coldly and began to think. It seemed that the left prime minister of Zhongyue was just a little clever and was fooled by his own daughter. He would write back to inform his father of the latest news about Zhongyue.
Ling Xingmu called Xiao Zhao and left together. Today he had no chance to help.
Next time, if the Night King and the Night Princess ask him to do a small favor, he will have the opportunity to repay the favor he owes to the Night King's Mansion.
"Interesting, interesting." A middle-aged man suddenly said. He went out today and didn't expect to encounter such an interesting thing. The Night King and his wife came to the Yun Mansion to slap the face, which made people feel refreshed.
The middle-aged man narrowed his eagle eyes and pondered: But why does he feel that Princess Ye looks a little familiar?
...
The interior of the Meng Mansion has been arranged, and yellow and white chrysanthemum potted plants have been placed in many places.
The ancestral hall was brightly lit, and snow-white cloth strips were hung on the gate, eaves, and beams.
Yun Mujiu placed Meng's tablet in a location designated by Duke Meng, and looked at the food placed on the table, feeling a slight soreness in his nose.
In the following time, Yun Mujiu, Ye Xiaohan, and Duke Meng's family paid tribute to the He and Meng families.
The Meng family prepared dinner, and Yun Mujiu and Ye Xiaohan stayed to eat. Just like last time, the people in the Meng family took Ye Xiaohan's cleanliness into consideration, and Ye Xiaohan and Yun Mujiu had a separate dish on their tables.
Although Ye Xiaohan had never told Duke Meng's family that he had mysophobia, Duke Meng and Meng Ninglang had dined at Prince Ye's Mansion before. The grandfather and grandson remembered it very clearly and specifically emphasized that they should prepare more dishes for Ye Xiaohan and Yun Mujiu.
Mu Jiu's husband was also a member of their family. It was normal to respect a certain characteristic of family members.
After dinner, Yun Mujiu chatted with Duke Meng and told him all the interesting things she had encountered recently. She only reported good news and not bad news, and mostly talked about things related to herself, such as her improvement in martial arts, what good ideas she had for the new shop, and how she was doing in the Night Palace...
At the end of the conversation, Yun Mujiu remembered the matter of investigating the Queen Mother and asked carefully: "Grandfather, can you tell me about your youth? I want to know."
Duke Meng smiled cheerfully, "Of course!"
Yun Mujiu was excited and looking forward to it...
