"The Regent has arrived."
Everyone was immediately excited.
Yun Xiyue also hurried over to take a look, and saw a purple figure appear. The figure was tall and slender, wearing a mask, and had a strong aura.
She felt that the regent seemed a bit young.
Contrary to her expectations, she had imagined the Great Wei Kingdom to be a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties!
He looks like he's not even twenty years old yet.
Many people went over to exchange pleasantries, offering compliments and congratulations.
The regent had been absent for so long that everyone had forgotten he even existed, but he still held great power and the emperor trusted him implicitly.
At that moment, the man looked at her.
"Greetings, Regent." Yun Xiyue quickly seized the opportunity to get closer to him.
"Who is this person?"
"It seems to be a distant relative of the Gong family."
"Hmph, just a lowly merchant!"
No matter where they are, merchants are looked down upon by these powerful and wealthy individuals.
The Gong siblings didn't look too good, which showed that they usually didn't like coming to such occasions. They were afraid of being disliked and felt both angry and ashamed.
As merchants, their backgrounds and social standing were indeed inferior to anyone else present.
"Brother Ye."
"You're finally back! I missed you so much!" Mo Feifei came over excitedly and hugged the man's arm.
The Regent silently withdrew his arm. "This young master is a distinguished guest invited by me."
Everyone was surprised to hear this.
Yun Xiyue and the others were also surprised.
"Princess, I have other matters to attend to. You two please continue your conversation."
He turned and left, and then a guard came over to invite the three siblings of the Gong family to come over together.
"Young Master Bai, our Prince invites you."
Mo Feifei's face immediately darkened. "What's going on? Why is Brother Ye meeting with this person alone? Is it because of Gong Shu?"
"How dare you seduce Brother Ye behind my back, Gong Shu! I will not let you get away with this!"
Yun Xiyue glanced back and saw the princess glaring resentfully at the palace maid beside her.
"You need to be careful. You're being watched."
Gong Shu smiled wryly, "There's nothing we can do. It's too ostentatious for the Regent to invite us over in public and treat us to a private meal."
It was the right choice for Yunxi Yue to disguise herself as a man.
Otherwise, it would be troublesome if Murphy got her eye on it.
"Feel sorry."
Gong Shu shook her head. "It's alright. Once she realizes that the Regent is not interested in me, she won't bother me. The royal family still needs our Gong family's financial support, so they won't go too far."
Yun Xiyue asked, "How do you know the Regent?"
Yunxi Yue said she didn't know him.
But he was also worried that his identity would be exposed.
Feeling a bit nervous, they went to a quiet pavilion.
"Greetings, Regent. May I ask what brings you here?"
The man turned around, his gaze fixed on her. "Aren't you Miss Yun looking for me?"
