He learned from the information he gathered that Su Muxi usually didn't like wearing a veil, but she wore it all day today, even while eating.
Therefore, the uterine pregnancy on Su Muxi's face should have disappeared.
That old fox Qiao Xiuyuan really did all the work for someone else!
But it doesn't matter. Whether the virgin fetus is there or not, he is determined to have Su Muxi and the Su family!
Meanwhile, because Ye Zeyu did not return to the Qihu Camp in time, a real mutiny almost occurred.
Fortunately, Ye Zeyu brought Ye Zeming with him this time, and they successfully prevented the mutiny from happening.
Bai Shuo had been in the Qihu Camp for many years, and most of the people in the camp were his men.
Many people panicked after learning that Bai Shuo had been replaced by Ye Zeyu.
Later, when Ye Zeyu did not return that night, but only sent a guard back to take charge of the situation, a rumor spread throughout the military camp overnight.
That is because Ye Zeyu did not want the Tiger Cavalry to surpass the Xuanwu Army, which is why he slandered General Bai and then ignored the soldiers of the Tiger Cavalry after gaining military power.
After a day and a night of build-up, the soldiers' morale was high. Seeing that Ye Zeyu had not returned and they could not be given an explanation, some of them began to lead a disturbance.
"What does Prince Yong'an mean by this?! Is he going to abandon us and leave us to our own devices?!"
"If Prince Yong'an looks down on the soldiers of our Tiger-Riding Battalion, then let General Bai return!"
"Exactly! At least General Bai treats us like human beings!"
…
Although Xiao Ce was capable of handling many things, this time he couldn't suppress the soldiers' discontent no matter how hard he tried.
If this were in the Xuanwu Army, everyone would admire their master greatly, and there would be no such dissenting voices!
He didn't know how things were going with his master. If he didn't return soon, he was afraid he would have no choice but to atone with his death!
Just when Xiao Ce was on the verge of collapse, Ye Ziyu finally returned.
After getting a general understanding of the situation, Ye Zeyu summoned Ye Zeming.
Do you know who this is?
"This is my third brother, the current third prince of the Qi Kingdom!"
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.
Ye Zeming, on the other hand, straightened his back, trying his best to exude the aura of a prince.
Then Ye Zeyu continued, "An army that can be stationed in the outskirts of the capital must be the bravest and most trusted army in Qi!"
That's why His Majesty sent the Third Prince with me, hoping that the Third Prince could gain experience in the Tiger Riding Camp!
Because the Tiger-Riding Battalion is the Emperor's army guarding the capital! I believe that all the soldiers will faithfully perform their duties, protecting the capital and the state of Qi!
Ye Zeyu's words ignited the passion of the Tiger Cavalry soldiers.
The phrase "the teacher of the emperor" in particular filled everyone with pride.
Ye Ziyu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he had calmed the soldiers down.
He knew that Qiao Xiuyuan must have planted more than one person in the Tiger Riding Camp.
Turning her head to look at Ye Zeming, who had an excited expression, she suddenly realized that her younger brother was still somewhat useful.
The following morning, Grand Secretary Shen Zhixing personally visited the Su family.
"I apologize for not being able to properly welcome Lord Shen, who has come in person!"
Upon hearing this, Su Xing hurriedly went out to greet him.
Shen Zhixing was a Grand Secretary of the Hanlin Academy. He was not only highly respected for his position and great scholarship, but also for his humility and politeness.
Su Xing glanced at Shen Yaxin following behind him. Although he had already guessed Shen Zhixing's purpose in coming here, he was still somewhat flattered.
Shen Zhixing was handsome and refined. After politely returning Su Xing's greeting, he said apologetically, "I came suddenly and did not present a formal letter of introduction. Please forgive me, Judge Su."
After Su Xing invited the person in, before the tea was even served, Shen Zhixing asked to see Su Muxi.
"My daughter spoke carelessly to Miss Su at the literary gathering yesterday. I have come today to apologize to Miss Su. I wonder if Miss Su is at home?"
Before Su Xing could speak, Su Muxi, wearing a veil, walked over gracefully.
"Su Muxi greets Lord Shen and Miss Chen."
Shen Zhixing returned the greeting with clasped hands, and subtly sized up Su Muxi.
He was poised and elegant, without a trace of pettiness.
It seems that Su Xing has put a lot of effort into teaching his daughter, Su Muxi.
Upon seeing this, Shen Yaxin quickly bowed deeply to Su Muxi, saying, "Miss Su, I spoke rashly in a moment of panic yesterday. Please don't take offense."
Su Muxi looked at Shen Yaxin, who was half-squatting, and made no attempt to ask her to get up.
Shen Yaxin was delicate and fragile, and after only a short while, she felt her legs were a little sore. Feeling resentful, she got up on her own before Su Muxi could speak.
Upon seeing this, Shen Zhixing frowned slightly, not because he felt that Shen Yaxin was being impolite, but because he felt that Su Muxi was going too far.
Although Su Muxi is a member of the Su family, the Su family is ultimately just a merchant family. No matter how wealthy they are, so what!
He personally came to her door and took the initiative to humble himself, but Su Muxi still maintained her airs. It was truly outrageous!
"Judge Su is truly a master at raising his daughter. Not only is Miss Su an excellent doctor, but she also has quite a unique personality!"
Su Muxi wanted to be modest and say that she wasn't as individualistic as Shen Yaxin.
But Su Xing said without any politeness, "I am not as good at educating my daughter as Lord Shen. So, Lord Shen, you have come to teach my daughter for me? If so, please, Lord Shen! Take your leave!"
"Su Xing! How rude of you!" Shen Yaxin pointed angrily at Su Xing.
Su Xing looked at the slender finger pointing at him with disdain, "You and Miss Chen are alike."
Seeing this, Shen Zhixing quickly softened his tone and said gently, "Academician Su has misunderstood. I had no other intentions just now; I was genuinely praising Miss Su."
After speaking, he paused and continued, "I have heard that Imperial Physician Su is devoted to medical skills. I wonder if he is interested in the position of Imperial Physician? The position of Imperial Physician is currently vacant. If Imperial Physician Su is interested, I can recommend him to the Emperor for the position."
Although the position of the Director of the Imperial Medical Academy was not high, he was the head of the Imperial Medical Academy.
All doctors in the world consider it an honor to enter the Imperial Medical Academy, so Shen Zhixing believes that Su Xing must also be eager for the position of Director of the Academy.
Su Xing and Su Muxi exchanged a glance, and when they looked at Shen Zhixing again, they couldn't help but shake their heads inwardly.
I never imagined that the current Grand Secretary of the Hanlin Academy would be such a superficial person.
"Lord Shen, I injured my leg some time ago and originally intended to resign from my post. However, the Second Prince and the Empress have shown me great favor by allowing me to serve as the Director of the Imperial Medical Academy after my leg heals. If Lord Shen can grant me permission to resign, I will be eternally grateful. If not, please return home."
Shen Zhixing was surprised that the Second Prince and the Empress had already proposed that Su Xing serve as the head of the Imperial Medical Academy.
Then what he just said must have become a joke in Su Xing's eyes!
