Su Muxi, though of humble origin and perceived ugliness, was pure-hearted and possessed exceptional medical skills.
She married the once-favored son of heaven and spent three years helping hi...
Upon being praised, Ye Zemin immediately puffed out his chest. "Big brother, are you serious?!"
"Of course! When has my brother ever lied to you?"
"...That's true! Then I'll go find Father first, and talk to my elder brother later! If I don't go now, Father will be having dinner."
As Ye Zemin was about to leave with his homework, Ye Zeyu said, "It's getting late, so I'll take your sister-in-law back first. I'll tell you about the Northern Frontier another day when we have time."
Sister-in-law?!
Ye Zemin and Su Muxi were both stunned.
Seeing Ye Zeyu naturally take Su Muxi's hand, looking unusually gentle, Ye Zeming suddenly asked, "Big brother, have you ever seen what she looks like?"
He was afraid that Ye Zeyu would be deceived, so he only saw half of Su Muxi's face.
Unexpectedly, this angered Ye Zeyu.
"It seems that my third brother's studies are too easy. The scholars in the Hanlin Academy are very idle. Next time I see Father, I will definitely suggest that those scholars tutor my third brother."
After saying that, he pulled Su Muxi and started to walk out, not even glancing at Ye Zemin's face, which was wrinkled like a bitter gourd.
Ye Zemin reacted quickly this time, immediately figuring out why Ye Zeyu was angry. He hurriedly begged for forgiveness, "Big brother, I didn't mean anything by it, please don't misunderstand! Sister-in-law is smart and witty, and you two are a match made in heaven! What I said just now was... I was just curious about what sister-in-law looks like. Because I've never seen what sister-in-law looks like before!"
Su Muxi didn't expose Ye Zeming's obvious lie, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly under her veil.
What a lovable prince he is!
I hope it's genuine, not an act.
