Xie Xuan left dejectedly, thinking of the face he had seen through the crack in the door, feeling ashamed of himself, realizing he couldn't win by even a fraction.
Bai Zhi and the other two were initially shocked, but gradually their reaction turned into delight.
Indeed, rumors are the least credible thing ever!
Who said that Prince Yong'an looked like a demon and could scare children to tears?!
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was a celestial being descended to earth!
Aunt Zhong had been busy in the kitchen and hadn't seen Ye Zeyu take off his mask. After Bai Zhi whispered something in her ear, she kept looking at Ye Zeyu with a resentful and curious gaze.
This made Ye Ziyu feel extremely uncomfortable.
Seeing Aunt Zhong's longing eyes, Su Muxi said with a smile, "Let Aunt Zhong see you too. If we become family in the future, it wouldn't be good if Aunt Zhong didn't even know what you look like, would it?"
Aunt Zhong nodded repeatedly, "That's right, that's right. It wouldn't be good if we didn't even recognize our own son-in-law in the future."
Upon hearing this, Ye Ziyu raised his hand and slowly removed the mask from his face.
Aunt Zhong's eyes widened and widened until they finally curved into crescent moons.
After breakfast, Ye Zeyu finally revealed that he wanted to invite Su Muxi back to his residence to help him treat Ji Cheng.
"Was that person seriously injured?"
"Yes, on the verge of death."
Upon hearing this, Su Muxi didn't hesitate and hurriedly went back to her room to pack her medicine box, preparing to leave with Ye Zeyu.
Watching her daughter's departing figure, Su Xing slowly stood up and said softly to Ye Zeyu, "I hope Your Highness can protect my daughter well."
Ye Ziyu stood up, clasped his hands in a fist and bowed to Su Xing, earnestly promising, "Even if it costs me my life, I will ensure Xi'er's safety!"
…
In the Yong'an Prince's Mansion
After re-bandaging Ji Cheng's wounds, Su Muxi shared her analysis.
"This person's legs were broken, so the blow must have been severe. The cut to the abdomen was clean and swift, indicating that vital organs were intentionally avoided. Therefore, I suspect that the perpetrators were not the same person."
Ge Mao hid behind the screen, secretly observing Su Muxi. After seeing Su Muxi's appearance, he subconsciously pursed his lips, but then, after seeing how Su Muxi treated her wounds and smelling the unique medicinal fragrance, he put away his contempt for Su Muxi.
Although he's not very good-looking, his medical skills are indeed excellent.
It's not bad that Ye Zeyu married a wife like that; at least she'll be safe from injury in the future.
If Ye Zeyu could be more magnanimous and bring Su Muxi, his little wife, to the Xuanwu Army, it would be a blessing for the wounded soldiers.
That way, when he passes away, he can leave in peace.
But after hearing Su Muxi's analysis, he began to admire her.
In the past, when he treated the wounded, he only cared about treating the wounded and ignored everything else.
After all, many people die or are wounded on the battlefield, and time is life; he has no time to think.
So when he treated this person, he didn't think too much about it.
I never expected that Su Muxi, this little girl, not only knew how to treat wounds, but could also analyze so much from the wounds.
It is evident that his medical skills far surpass those of his.
After all, many diseases can only be better treated if their causes are known.
It seems he had been confining himself to his own limited perspective and stuck in his ways.
No wonder Ye Zeyu is so fond of Su Muxi.
Even the most beautiful woman will grow old and become tiresome one day. Moreover, Ye Zeyu is not a lecherous man at all, and only a clever young lady like Su Muxi can interest him.
Ye Ziyu had long since noticed Ge Mao's presence, but he didn't take it to heart, because he rarely hid things from his own people.
Therefore, he didn't hold back with Su Muxi and told her directly what happened last night.
Su Muxi frowned. "You mean these are Ye Zerui's guards? Then..."
She hadn't had a clear sense of Ye Zerui's ruthlessness before.
But now, she feels that Ye Zerui is simply inhuman!
If she wasn't mistaken, this person should be the guard with the broken leg that Ye Zerui mentioned yesterday...
Just as Ye Zeyu and Su Muxi guessed, "That's just how Ye Zerui is. He won't hesitate to discard useless people. As for the knife wound in his abdomen, it's probably because the person who tried to kill him couldn't bear it and deliberately missed. They sent him here to save his life."
Su Muxi remained silent, her heart filled with indescribable emotions.
If such a person were to eventually ascend the throne, it would likely cause suffering to all the people of the world.
So is she going to help Ye Ziyu fight for the throne?
Despite the absurdity of the idea, Su Muxi didn't find it crazy at all.
There are many things she can't avoid doing just because she doesn't want to. Forced into this situation, she has no choice but to grit her teeth and move forward.
Just then, Tang Yan's voice suddenly rang out from outside the door.
"I heard that Miss Su has come, and I would like to say a few words to her!"
"His Highness said that no one is allowed to enter without his permission!"
…
Upon hearing this, Su Muxi quickly opened the door and went out.
“Yan… Miss Tang, I was planning to come see you later.”
Since Yan'er has reformed, it's best to call her by her original name.
Previously, it was inconvenient to visit Tang Yan late at night, but today she arrived early, and Su Muxi was indeed preparing to have Tang Yan undergo a follow-up examination.
Tang Yan smiled as she saw Su Muxi. "Miss Su, you can just call me Yan'er, except now I'm Yanzi Yan."
As he spoke, he stepped forward and took Su Muxi's hand, his eyes filled with undisguised affection for her.
However, upon seeing Ye Zeyu emerge from the house, his expression turned serious, and he bowed respectfully to Ye Zeyu.
"Yan'er greets Your Highness."
Ye Zeyu gave a soft "hmm," but his voice softened considerably when he looked at Su Muxi.
“Xi’er, there’s nothing else here. You haven’t seen Miss Tang for many days. If you would like to have a private chat, I’ll have someone prepare some tea and refreshments.”
"Alright, then I'll take the trouble."
…
Even after Tang Yan walked back to her courtyard with Su Muxi, she still couldn't figure out the doubts in her heart.
I always felt that the atmosphere between Miss Su and the Prince was very subtle, familiar yet intimate.
Could it be that the two of them have already...
"Yan'er, what's wrong?"
Seeing that Tang Yan hadn't spoken a word the whole way, Su Muxi became a little worried and took Tang Yan's wrist to check her pulse.
The pulse is stable, and the recovery is going well.
This made Su Muxi breathe a slight sigh of relief.
“Miss Su, I’m fine. Thanks to you, I was able to pull myself out of the brink of death.”
"Of course, the prince has also taken good care of me. During the few days I've been in the prince's mansion, my food, clothing and daily necessities have been top-notch."
After Tang Yan finished speaking, she hesitated for a moment before preparing to ask Su Muxi directly about her feelings.
"Miss Su, please forgive my intrusion, but I wonder if you are interested in the Prince?"
Upon hearing this, Su Muxi blushed instantly, and then slowly nodded.
Seeing this, Tang Yan considered the situation for a moment and then made up her mind.
Since that's the case, then there's no time like the present. Tonight, she will help Miss Su get what she wants!
