In the post station
Murong Qing smashed everything she could in the room, while Murong Tian was also furious.
They had thought that the Emperor of Qi would personally host a banquet for them upon their arrival in the capital, but to their surprise, he only arranged a guesthouse for them to stay in the capital for two days. As for the marriage alliance, he said there was no rush.
This clearly shows that they don't take them seriously, and they don't take this marriage alliance seriously!
"This is absolutely outrageous!"
Murong Qing threw the blanket on the ground, and feeling unsatisfied, she stepped on it a few times, as if she were stepping on Ye Jingchun's head instead of the blanket.
Although Murong Tian was also very angry, seeing his sister's attitude, he could only say, "Forget it, let's wait two days. We can take advantage of this time to explore the capital."
"I've heard that the capital of Qi has lots of good food and lots of fun things to do. Let me take you out for a stroll."
"My sister is so beautiful, she'll definitely bewitch all the men in Qi when she goes out!"
"I'm afraid the threshold of this inn will be worn flat by tomorrow morning!"
Hearing this, Murong Qing's mood improved somewhat.
"Alright, then we'll do as you say, brother. Didn't Pei Yuan say we could ask him for anything? Let's have him take us out for a stroll!"
…
On the other side, Su Muxi had just returned home when she saw Azhu carrying a porcelain pillow, slowly walking towards her.
"Ah Zhu, what's wrong?"
But then Bai Zhi explained, "The porcelain pillow in A-Zhu's hand was redeemed from the pawnshop. I suppose A-Zhu wants to thank you, Miss!"
Unexpectedly, Ah Zhu handed the porcelain pillow directly to Su Muxi.
"You want to give me this porcelain pillow?" Su Muxi asked hesitantly.
Ah Zhu nodded, her eyes filled with determination.
Su Muxi looked at the porcelain pillow in front of her, hesitated for a moment, and then reached out to take it.
Although this porcelain pillow is ordinary, it must be a very important thing to Azhu.
Ah Zhu's actions were an expression of gratitude, and she wanted to accept that gratitude.
Before she knew it, Su Muxi felt a lump in her throat again. After looking at the porcelain pillow in her hand with delight, she gently kissed Azhu's face.
"Thank you, Ah Zhu. I really like this porcelain pillow, and I will cherish it."
Azhu was surprised that Su Muxi would suddenly kiss her. She stood there blankly, blinking her big eyes. Her already round cheeks gradually flushed red, making her look extremely cute.
This prompted Su Muxi and Bai Zhi to pinch her cheek.
Such a lovely child, he must have suffered so much before!
Su Muxi was chatting with Azhu and Baizhi when Zhong Bin suddenly ran over.
"Miss! The princess of Northern Yan has arrived! They tried to barge in without saying a word, but thankfully Guard Mai and the others stopped them! My father has already gone to fetch the master, you should go and see him too!"
Upon hearing this, Su Muxi quickly got up from her chair and walked briskly towards the door.
The princess of Northern Yan suddenly came to our door, surely because of her marriage to Ye Zeyu.
Even if the Emperor had agreed to let Ye Zeyu marry the Northern Yan princess, he still wouldn't tolerate the Northern Yan people running wild on Qi territory!
Pei Yuan was initially delighted to accompany Murong Qing on a tour of the capital, but before he could even introduce the famous restaurants and streets in the capital after leaving the inn, he heard Murong Qing say that she was going to see Su Muxi.
"Princess, why do you want to see Miss Su?"
Pei Yuan naturally knew that Murong Qing's actions were for Ye Zeyu's sake.
However, he couldn't very well bring people to their door directly, since Su Muxi had once been kind to him.
Murong Qing raised an eyebrow and said, "I've heard that Su Muxi is as ugly as a demon, and I'm curious to see her. What? You don't know where she is? Then I'll find someone else. Someone that ugly must be quite famous here; I should be able to find out with a little inquiry!"
Pei Yuan felt somewhat uncomfortable hearing Murong Qing belittle Su Muxi, but he wasn't angry.
Because what Murong Qing said was true; Su Muxi was indeed ugly, and quite famous in the capital.
If one makes a few inquiries, one will surely be able to find the location of the Su residence.
So rather than having someone else take Murong Qing to find Su Muxi, it's better to let him take her. At least if the two start arguing, he can help mediate.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the gates of the Su residence were opened, Murong Qing ordered her guards to barge inside.
The guards in the Su residence were no pushovers either; they quickly subdued all of Murong Qing's men.
When Su Muxi came out of the backyard, she saw the guards that Ye Zeyu had arranged for her to guard her house. Each of them had someone under their feet and was full of killing intent, as if they were about to draw their swords and kill everyone under their feet at any moment.
Ye Zeyu's men had all returned from the Northern Frontier with him, and naturally they hated the Northern Yan people to the bone. Now that Murong Qing had suddenly barged in with her people, these guards would naturally not show any mercy.
Murong Qing didn't notice Su Muxi's arrival. Instead, she looked at Murong Tian, who was being trampled underfoot, and stomped her feet angrily.
"Release my elder brother at once! My elder brother is the sixth prince of Northern Yan! He is my father's most beloved son. If you dare to harm my elder brother in the slightest, my father will surely send troops to raze your Qi Kingdom to the ground!"
As he spoke, he was about to rush over to save the person, but Pei Yuan held him back tightly.
"Princess, you are of noble birth. Those guards are rude and will surely hurt you!"
He then turned to the guards of the Su residence and said, "Why don't you release them immediately! The Northern Yan has come to establish a marriage alliance with our country. If they are injured, can you bear the consequences?"
