Chapter 819: Searching the Mountain, Led by the Night King
It was a dark and windy night, and the sky was bleak. Ye Xiaohan rode on his Red Hare, his eyes fixed on the few faint lights ahead. That was where people lived.
This time, in addition to transferring a group of guards from the Night King's Palace, he also mobilized a group of troops he had left outside the capital in the local area.
The two teams will meet tonight and, under the leadership of the Night King, will head towards the same mission.
Regardless of whether those people are from the Eastern Empire or other countries, they must find out their background and origins clearly.
Ye Xiaohan's eyes were as deep as the sea and he gave the order in a cold voice.
"Let's go and start searching."
...
In the Ye Palace, Yun Mujiu was sitting in Ye Xiaohan's study, holding two letters in his hands.
Last night, the secret guards of the Night Prince's Palace brought her two letters, one from the fifth prince and the other from the seventh prince.
The two princes mentioned some information in the letter. The emperor and empress not only found out the identity information of Du Houpu and Du Guier, but also ordered people to search for the whereabouts of the two and try to bring them into the palace.
In addition, the two princes also mentioned that the emperor had already arranged for Prince Di's return. Not only had Prince Di's mansion been arranged, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs had also been asked to prepare a welcoming banquet for Prince Di in the future.
The King of Di was on his way back to the capital with an army from the northern border, and the Emperor had also dispatched a troop of imperial guards to go out of the city to meet the King of Di. The imperial guards would march northward, and they would probably meet each other halfway when the King of Di was returning to the capital.
The Imperial Guards will then take part in escorting Prince Di back to the capital. On the one hand, this will highlight the importance that the Emperor and the court attach to Prince Di. On the other hand, the Imperial Guards can also ensure Prince Di's safety during his final days back in the capital.
In fact, the people in the Ye Palace also found out this information, and Yun Mujiu also knew a rough idea. But she also knew that Ye Chufeng and Ye Chuhe both sent the news out of kindness. Moreover, Ye Chufeng and Ye Chuhe were the princes staying in the palace, so they learned some news in the palace more quickly and comprehensively.
In short, she understood the intentions and goodwill of the two princes.
Yun Mujiu looked at Wei Bai and said, "We should send them a reply. How about you write a reply letter?"
Wei Bai immediately put down his crossed legs and said, "Princess, this is not possible. Those two letters were written to you by the Fifth and Seventh Princes in the name of your nephews. How can I reply to them in my own name?"
"You are also a member of the Night Palace, so it should be okay to ask you to reply." Yun Mujiu stood up and began to grind ink.
It wasn't that she didn't want to reply, it was mainly because she felt her calligraphy wasn't very good. The fifth and seventh princes both wrote to her in person, their handwriting was very beautiful, and she was really embarrassed to let the two princes see her chicken claw handwriting.
First, she habitually wrote cursive script when writing prescriptions and medical records, and her handwriting could be compared to the flying dragon and phoenix. Even when she usually wrote regular script with a brush, it was inevitably tainted with the elegant temperament of cursive script.
Secondly, her calligraphy was not bad, but compared with the authentic ancient people, there was still some gap, because people in this dynasty had been writing with brushes since childhood, especially the princes of the royal family, who received strict instruction from the teachers in private schools, and their writing strength was different from that of ordinary people.
Yun Mujiu glanced at Wei Bai and expressed all his concerns.
Wei Bai found it a little funny. How come he didn't realize that the princess was such a face-conscious person?
Wei Bai stood up and said with a smile: "Princess, your handwriting is not important, as long as you write a letter to the fifth and seventh princes casually."
"The most important thing is that you are the most suitable person to reply to the letters from our Yewang Mansion. Because the princess is not a member of the court, replying in your personal name will not involve the rhetoric of power and faction."
After thinking for a while, he added: "Of course, it's OK for the subordinates to reply."
It's just not as convenient as the princess replying to the letter. And if he were to reply, he would probably have a hard time controlling his words.
Thinking about the prince's previous reply to the Seventh Prince, the words were full of arrogance and dominance. He could even recall the prince's cold expression when he wrote the letter from the prince's handwriting.
Yun Mujiu had already rolled up his sleeves after listening to Wei Bai's long conversation. Let her write, write whatever she wants, as long as she can express what she wants to express accurately and the audience can see clearly what she writes.
Yun Mujiu picked up her pen and wrote the first reply in a few strokes. In the letter, she first expressed her gratitude to Ye Chuhe, and then tactfully asked about Ye Chuhe's health so as to further see whether she should adjust the prescription for Ye Chuhe's medication.
Before the ink on the first letter dried completely, he picked up his pen and wrote the second letter. In his letter, Ye Chufeng wrote more about the news that Prince Di had returned to Beijing, saying that he had made preparations and reminded the Ye Palace to be on guard, because Prince Di seemed to have a sinister character and had military power in his hands.
Similarly, Yun Mujiu first expressed his gratitude to Ye Chufeng, and then asked directly about Ye Chufeng's physical condition, so as to further adjust the eye protection medicine prescribed for Ye Chufeng. In addition, he also added some information about Du Ziheng's past contacts with Du Houpu and Du Guier.
Ye Chufeng often stood with the Ye Palace, and he also knew that Du Ziheng was wrongly accused by Du Digu. He even showed his interest in clearing Du Ziheng's grievances and finding out the truth about Du Digu.
As a friend with the same stance, the Ye Palace represented by Yun Mujiu would not exclude Ye Chufeng from these news, so he would also inform Ye Chufeng of some important information and clues in a timely manner.
Soon, Yun Mujiu finished writing the two letters and showed them to Wei Bai. They both thought there was nothing wrong with them, so they ordered the secret guards to deliver the letters.
After finishing writing the letter, Yun Mujiu summoned several Hanying Guards.
She instructed to continue to thoroughly investigate Jiang Chi's deep identity, the whereabouts of Prince Consort Cao's real savior, and Master Mu, whom Princess Ji Ling had been thinking about.
Yun Mujiu opened Fengcaotang near the northern boundary, and the area where Fengcaotang is located is the northern part of Zhongyue. In other words, she has a group of forces in the northern region, and she can just help Princess Ji Ling to find out the news about Master Mu.
When Princess Ji Ling mentioned Master Mu, Yun Mujiu had already sent a message to Fengcaotang. Now Fengcaotang has started searching for the whereabouts of Doctor Ye while searching for Master Mu's background.
One of the reasons why Princess Ji Ling had gained nothing for so long was that the information she had was too scarce and she didn't know much about Master Mu, so the search was quite difficult.
Considering that Princess Ji Ling had not found Master Mu after searching for so long, Yun Mujiu even had a bold guess. The second reason why Princess Ji Ling did not find anything was that the information she had might be false.
When Wei Bai heard Yun Mujiu's words, his jaw dropped. Fu Qian was also surprised. She had never thought about what the princess said.
Yun Mujiu remained calm and continued to express his thoughts.
That is, the so-called Master Mu may not actually exist. It does not mean that the young man is not alive in the world, but that the young man may have provided some false information to Princess Ji Ling and created an identity and positioning.
For example, his surname “Mu” is false, and his place of origin “North” is also false.
Everything is fake, or it is hard to tell the truth from the false. Of course, it is difficult to find out the final truth...
