"Has their regent returned yet?"
Gong Chenrui said, "I heard he's back. I don't know if it's true. There was some activity in the palace a couple of days ago."
"Young Miss, you've only just arrived today, so please rest for a bit. We'll try to get in touch with the Regent's Palace tomorrow."
Yun Xiyue was exhausted after a day's journey, so she accepted the arrangement and stayed at the Gong family's residence.
I did not see the eldest son of the Gong family, Gong Dian, during the visit.
The palace family arranged for maids to help her bathe and change clothes. After she had a meal, she went to bed and rested. After a while, she went to sleep.
No one knew that the eldest son of the Gong family had come to cause trouble that night because he was drunk, and mistook her for Bai Xintang.
As a result, he was knocked unconscious by the shadow and sent away. Gong Chenrui came to apologize early in the morning, and Yun Xiyue was puzzled, "What happened?"
“My son offended the young lady, and I am now bringing him here to apologize.”
When Yun Xiyue saw Gong Dian in person, she understood what had happened. "This is not Gong Dian's fault. We didn't explain things clearly when we came."
"The eldest son has been wronged, Master Gong, please don't make things difficult for him anymore."
Gong Dian's clothes were stripped off, and he was carrying a rattan cane on his back, revealing his delicate, fair skin. He had been whipped several times and had several lash scars, making him look quite pitiful.
He was quite surprised to hear what Yun Xiyue said. He looked up and realized that he had made a mistake; she really wasn't Bai Xintang.
"It was indeed my fault, and it is only right that I apologize to Miss."
Bai Xintang ran away from the wedding, causing him to lose face.
But this person wasn't Bai Xintang; he went and almost sexually assaulted her, so he definitely deserved to be hit.
Yun Xiyue didn't take it to heart, and Gong Chenrui breathed a sigh of relief. "The Regent's Palace has sent an invitation to the young lady to attend the flower viewing banquet at the palace."
"So the Regent has really returned?" Yun Xiyue was quite happy and had someone prepare gifts to pay him a visit as soon as possible. Whether or not she could borrow troops depended heavily on this Regent of the Great Wei Kingdom.
"By the way, where's Bei Ye?"
The shadow said, "He's injured and seems to be having trouble adjusting to the new environment, so he hasn't gotten up. I told him to rest first, and I can accompany you."
Yun Xiyue didn't think much of it. She was indeed very grateful for Bei Ye's protection during this time; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to arrive in Da Wei safely.
"Ah."
She prepared a gift and was taken there by someone from the Gong family. The women of the Gong family were seasoned veterans in the capital of Dawei, and were very familiar with the noble ladies and wives of the capital. They had their own special circle.
Gong Dian was also there.
To make it easier for Yun Xiyue to disguise herself as a man, she told the outside world that she was a distant relative of the Gong family and Gong Dian's cousin.
Gong Dian, wanting to make amends, introduced these people to her quite seriously. Accompanying her were Gong Dian's younger sister, Gong Shu, and the ninth young lady of the Gong family.
The eldest daughter of the Gong family entered the palace and became a concubine. Gong Shu said, "Cousin, look, that woman dressed in luxurious clothes is the Regent's fiancée. She is the little princess of the Great Wei Kingdom. Her name is Mo Feifei."
"She's extremely infatuated with the Regent, so be careful and don't confront her directly."
Because this Murphy was deeply favored by the emperor
That means it's necessary to maintain a good relationship with her.
"Hmm, where is the Regent?" After arriving for so long, all I saw were a group of ladies from prominent families and court officials, but not the Regent himself.
Gong Dian said, "Him? He's elusive and can't show his face. He doesn't usually attend court. I don't know what brought him here, but he suddenly started holding a flower-viewing banquet."
"We didn't hold flower-viewing banquets before?" Yun Xiyue found it strange.
Gong Shu said, "The Regent doesn't like attending these banquets, and the Prince's Palace never hosts banquets. This is the first time."
"I guess he has successfully completed his seclusion and is intentionally celebrating. The Regent is a martial arts genius and the number one warrior of our Great Wei Kingdom. His martial arts skills are unfathomable."
Yun Xiyue laughed and said, "Then he didn't become regent because of his martial arts skills, did he?"
"You could say that, because he saved the Emperor. When the Emperor was captured, it was the Regent who single-handedly stormed into the enemy's territory and rescued him. At that time, the Emperor was still a prince. As long as the Regent was there, even a thousand troops couldn't withstand him alone."
so smart?
Yun Xiyue suddenly felt a strong urge to see him. She thought it would be great if she could win him over to the border and help the Great Xia fight.
