Seeing the confidence in Ye Zeyu's eyes, Su Muxi gradually felt relieved.
Actually, the solution she just came up with was also ill-considered.
If someone as proud as Ye Zeyu were to feign illness and stay home, it would be tantamount to cutting off the wings of an eagle.
She didn't want Ye Zeyu to lose his pride, and she didn't want his pride to be trampled on!
Skipping over the topic of the military camp, Su Muxi pouted slightly and asked in a coquettish tone, "Then how will our God of War show off his might? Will he steal the Northern Yan princess's carriage at the city gate, or will he make the Northern Yan princess grovel beneath our God of War's armor and robes?"
Ye Zeyu chuckled again, his eyes full of doting affection.
Without asking questions or teasing me further, he said directly, "Don't worry, Xi'er, I only love you. And even if Father Emperor isn't worried that my marriage to Northern Yan will give me my own power, after hearing what Xi'er said, Father Emperor still won't let the Northern Yan princess marry me."
"...My words?" Su Muxi asked, puzzled.
Ye Zeyu raised an eyebrow, "Could it be that what Third Brother said wasn't taught by Xi'er?"
"...I didn't teach it!"
Upon seeing this, Su Muxi hurriedly recounted to Ye Zeyu the details of her conversation with Ye Zeming from the moment she met him.
However, they failed to notice the fleeting smugness in Ye Zeyu's eyes.
It seems that Xi'er only regarded her third brother as a child, and was wary of him at the beginning.
That put his mind at ease.
Su Muxi didn't finish her conversation with Ye Zemin until the carriage arrived at the Su residence.
"call!"
I never expected her to talk so much with that third prince.
However, she was mostly the one doing the homework for the other person.
From this perspective, Ye Zemin's words, "Sister-in-law is so kind," were well worth it!
Ye Zeyu found it amusing, not expecting his third brother to think of having Xi'er help him with his homework, and he also didn't expect Xi'er to have knowledge of policy essays.
"Xi'er, is there anything else I don't know?"
You don't know?
Su Muxi subconsciously reached out and touched the lines on her birthmark, feeling a pang of shyness.
"You've only known me for a short time. If you're truly sincere, you'll gradually learn about my past. If you're just being hypocritical, then Qiao Ziming will be your fate!"
Su Muxi said, feigning malice.
She and Qiao Ziming had just divorced when Qiao Ziming developed a leg problem, compounded by Qiao Zixi's questioning in court.
Some people who were unaware of the truth actually believed that Qiao Ziming's leg injury was caused by her.
The infamy she carried faded away with Sun Shan's death.
But then Ye Ziyu removed his mask and said earnestly, "I am not Qiao Zimo, and I will never become a second Qiao Zimo! Xi'er, you will gradually find out whether my feelings for you are genuine. Because we have a long time together, and we will be together for the rest of our lives!"
…
Although Ye Zeyu was only going to the military camp on the outskirts of the city, Su Muxi still prepared a lot of medicine for Ye Zeyu to take to the camp.
It's better to be safe than sorry.
Two days passed quickly.
For the past two days, no one has dared to enter the Shanci Hall, and only some poor families come to get medicine.
Su Muxi was bored sitting there, so she decided to go home and prepare for her wedding.
Unlike other young ladies awaiting marriage, Su Muxi's marriage preparations were not embroidery and sewing, but rather the making of various medicines and poisoned hidden weapons for self-defense.
Su Muxi went to the funeral of the driver and his assistant. Seeing their family members crying their hearts out made Su Muxi feel extremely guilty.
Although they were not killed by her, they died indirectly because of her.
Although she gave their family a lot of money, Su Muxi still felt sorry for them.
That's why she doesn't want her family to have to grieve for her one day, so she has to learn to protect herself, and not only that, but also to be extra careful about the people and things around her.
That day, Su Muxi went to Shanci Hall early in the morning again, wanting to bring Azhu home to live.
It takes a hundred days to recover from a broken bone; Ah Zhu won't get better so easily.
The Shan Ci Tang is full of men, and it would be troublesome for Bai Zhi to run around taking care of A Zhu every day, so they simply let A Zhu move into their home, which would make it easier to take care of her.
As for what to do with Ah Zhu after she recovers.
Anyway, there aren't many people in their family, so having Ah Zhu would make things more lively.
Unexpectedly, just as the servants had lifted Ah Zhu onto the carriage, Shen Yaxin arrived.
"Miss Su!"
Su Muxi had only boarded halfway into the carriage when she saw Shen Yaxin, so she had no choice but to get off for the time being.
"Miss Chen, did you come here so early this morning for something? Is there perhaps a problem with the ointment from last time?"
Su Muxi asked calmly, her expression remaining impassive, but inwardly she was becoming wary of Shen Yaxin.
She still remembered what Bai Zhi had told her last time.
Regardless of whether Shen Yaxin truly likes Ye Zeyu, it's impossible for her to be friends with Shen Yaxin.
When the ointment was mentioned, Shen Yaxin's beautiful eyes curved into crescents, but there was a hint of wariness in them.
"Miss Su's medical skills are superb, and the ointment she prepares is naturally of the highest quality. My grandmother's leg ailment is gradually improving, and I have come today to thank Miss Su."
After speaking, he slightly raised his chin. Upon seeing this, the maid Biyuan, who was standing behind him, stepped forward carrying an eight-inch square red lacquered wooden box.
He looked smug, as if he were receiving a favor.
A cold smile crept across Su Muxi's lips.
grandmother?
Leg ailment?
Oh!
"I'm glad Miss Shen is satisfied. As for thanks, there's no need! Just remember what I said before."
