Knowing that Ye Zeyu would return to the Tiger Riding Camp immediately after his return, Su Muxi thought she should hurry up and get more medicine for Ye Zeyu to take with him.
After all, besides this, there was nothing else she could do to help Ye Zeyu.
She was originally going to Shancitang, but after Ge Mao found out, he directly took her to his pharmacy in the Prince's Mansion.
It contains all kinds of herbs.
Just as Xiao Ce had said before, the Prince's mansion has everything.
So Su Muxi told Ge Mao all her prescriptions without reservation, and the two of them worked much better, making many pills and powders.
Unexpectedly, Ye Zemin found out about this matter. Whether it was for detoxification or murder, he wanted a copy of everything that Ye Zemin saw.
He claimed that as a prince, he needed to protect himself while traveling to avoid causing trouble for Ye Zeyu.
Su Muxi thought it made sense, so she became generous.
However, their actions aroused Ye Zeyu's jealousy.
He grabbed Su Muxi's slender waist and pulled her into his arms right in front of Ye Zeming.
"Your sister-in-law is tired."
Ye Zeming looked at Su Muxi, puzzled, and murmured, "Tired?"
Su Muxi wore a veil, but from her exposed eyebrows and eyes, one could not discern any fatigue, only a shy charm...
Could it be that the kind of tiredness my brother was referring to?
Although Ye Zeming had never eaten pork, he knew how pigs ran because he was in the palace.
Those concubines who had served the emperor the previous night would always complain of feeling tired.
So, the eldest brother couldn't wait to get married and went straight for Su Muxi?!
Thinking of Su Muxi's ugly appearance under the veil, Ye Zeming sighed inwardly.
Why is it that his wise, brave, and exceptionally handsome elder brother is so fond of Su Muxi?
Seeing Ye Zemin shaking his head and sighing, Ge Mao quickly pulled him aside. "Third Prince, I have something else of value here. Would you like to take a look?"
"Of course I want to see! What good stuff is it?"
…
Ye Zeyu took Su Muxi to the side room next door. As soon as he closed the door, Ye Zeyu couldn't wait to tear off Su Muxi's veil and kiss her lips.
He never knew he was a lecherous man, nor did he ever think he would be so engrossed in women.
But now, he understands those lecherous men.
If he could, he would want to sink deeper and deeper into depravity...
"Ugh...no..."
Su Muxi let out a soft moan.
Ge Mao and Ye Zemin were right next door, and she didn't want them to hear anything.
Ye Ziyu was reluctant to let go, but he held Su Muxi tightly in his arms.
"Xi'er, I can't bear to part with you."
Su Muxi nestled in Ye Zeyu's arms, listening to his strong heartbeat, and murmured, "Me too."
I didn't quite understand the phrase "as inseparable as glue" before, but now I truly understand it.
But right now, there clearly isn't much time for her and Ye Zeyu to embrace like this.
"You've read Ji Cheng's statement, haven't you?"
Ye Zeyu: "Yeah, I saw it."
McQueen was also punished with five strokes of the military rod.
McQueen really dared to think of using Xi'er's beauty to force a confession!
"I never imagined that Ji Cheng almost met his end because of me... You have to find a way to bring that guard named Shi Qiang back, I promised Ji Cheng."
Su Muxi murmured, but Ye Zeyu kissed her red lips again.
"Don't always mention other men in front of me, or I'll get jealous."
Ye Zeyu's eyes were deep, with a hint of fire in them.
Su Muxi lowered her head shyly and whispered, "Who says jealousy can be expressed so confidently..."
But then Ye Ziyu said, "I don't want to pretend to be magnanimous or indifferent, nor do I want to wrong myself and make myself suspicious of you. That's why I spoke with such conviction, and I hope that Xi'er can be just as assertive towards me in the future. Okay?"
Su Muxi stared blankly at Ye Zeyu for a long time before finally uttering a single word.
"…good."
Before, she felt shy and sweet, but from this moment on, she felt incredibly happy.
"Ye Zeyu".
"Um?"
"It's so good to have met you."
…
Two hours later, Ye Zeyu left the Prince's residence.
If he hadn't been thinking about getting back to the Tiger Riding Camp before sunset, he probably wouldn't have been willing to leave.
Ye Zemin sat in the carriage, fiddling with the various pills and powders he had obtained from Su Muxi and Ge Mao, feeling an indescribable excitement.
But after looking up and seeing Ye Zeyu's gloomy face, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "Big brother, what's wrong? What did sister-in-law say in her letter to you?"
Ye Ziyu was reading Ji Cheng's statement.
The document listed the various ministers in the court who were related to Ye Zerui, and also mentioned one other matter.
Ye Zerui was using women in the palace to poison his father, the emperor.
My father was a cautious and suspicious man.
Therefore, it is not easy to poison him.
However, if one first poisons the women in the palace, and then transfers the poison from their bodies to the Emperor through them, it will go unnoticed.
Although Ji Cheng could be considered Ye Zerui's confidant, he was, after all, just a guard and didn't know much. He only had a vague idea about the poisoning, and the specifics still needed to be investigated.
Upon hearing Ye Zemin's words, Ye Zeyu did not explain. Instead, he calmly put away the letter in his hand and said in a deep voice, "Your sister-in-law's cousin came to the capital yesterday and told her about the Northern Yan princess's trip to the capital for a marriage alliance, specifically requesting to marry me. Your sister-in-law is a little jealous. I will appease her another day."
Upon hearing this, Ye Zeming immediately became anxious.
"It's that Wei Yichen, isn't it! I heard that he made improper advances towards my sister-in-law at the literary gathering, and I never expected that he would do such a divisive thing behind my back!"
When the Northern Yan came to our Qi state for a marriage alliance, it wasn't up to them to decide who she wanted to marry!
When I see Wei Yichen again, I'm going to teach him a lesson!
"How dare he make a move on my sister-in-law! He's asking for trouble!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Zeyu showed no outward expression, but nodded in satisfaction.
He didn't spoil his younger brother for nothing!
Ye Zeyu returned to the military camp, and Su Muxi also went home. Upon seeing Su Xing, she blushed inexplicably, unsure of what to say.
Su Xing looked at Su Muxi, who was wearing a veil, with mixed feelings in his heart, and finally sighed heavily.
"The prince has come and told me about your matter. Father doesn't blame you. Wear a veil when you go out these days to avoid being seen."
He wasn't afraid of others seeing Xi'er's current appearance; he was afraid that others would find out about the pregnancy and that Xi'er would lose her virginity before marriage, which would damage her reputation.
Su Muxi wasn't afraid of damaging her reputation, since her reputation wasn't good in the past anyway, so it wouldn't matter if it got worse.
However, before marrying Ye Zeyu, she did need to conceal her appearance.
After all, sometimes being ugly isn't a bad thing, but being beautiful isn't necessarily a good thing either; at the very least, it can bring a lot of trouble.
"Master, there is a young master named Wei outside who requests an audience."
