Su Muxi looked at everyone with a gentle expression in her eyes, but inwardly she was sneering.
Men really do like beautiful women!
The crowd headed towards Fukang County, forming a magnificent and impressive procession.
Inside the carriage, Su Muxi discussed the specifics of their arrival in Fukang County with Qiao Ziming and Xie Xuan.
At the beginning, Qiao Ziming listened quite attentively and would occasionally offer some suggestions.
But gradually, Su Muxi sensed that something was wrong.
"What? Does Your Highness have anything to add?"
Qiao Ziming looked at Su Muxi's face, hesitated for a moment, and asked in a deep voice, "Just now, did you deliberately take off your veil?"
"…good."
Seeing Su Muxi readily admit it, Qiao Ziming immediately became furious.
"So many men have seen your face, Su Muxi, are you that desperate for men?!"
"Qiao Ziming, watch your mouth!"
Xie Xuan shouted angrily and grabbed Qiao Ziming's collar.
The carriage swayed slightly as a result of this action.
Outside, McQueen hurriedly asked, "Your Highness! Are you alright?"
McQueen could hear the commotion inside the carriage clearly. After hearing Qiao Ziming's words, he wished he could rush into the carriage and give Qiao Ziming a good beating.
What was the princess's purpose in doing this?
It was all so that the plague in Fukang County could be resolved smoothly!
This Qiao Ziming really takes advantage of your kindness!
Su Muxi took a deep breath and said to Mai Kun, "I'm fine."
He then reached out and patted Xie Xuan's arm, which was gripping Qiao Zimo's arm, "Young Master Xie, it's alright."
Xie Xuan frowned. Although he didn't want to let Qiao Zimo off so easily, he glanced at Su Muxi, gritted his teeth, and swallowed his anger.
"snort!"
She forcefully flung open Qiao Ziming's collar, stretched out her long legs, and stood between Qiao Ziming and Su Muxi.
Qiao Ziming also recovered from his anger and realized that what he had said earlier had gone too far, but his anger remained.
Looking at Qiao Ziming's furious eyes, Su Muxi suddenly laughed self-deprecatingly: "Ha!"
Before the birthmark on her face disappeared, Qiao Ziming made her wear a veil on a daily basis to avoid bringing shame to the Marquis of Anyang's mansion.
Now that the birthmark on her face has disappeared, Qiao Ziming still makes her wear a veil to prevent her from attracting unwanted attention.
But Qiao Ziming forgot that no matter what, she has nothing to do with him now!
After laughing, when Su Muxi looked up at Qiao Ziming again, her eyes were completely calm.
She didn't defend herself, nor did she want to argue with Qiao Ziming. She simply asked calmly, "Your Highness, you saw what happened just now. Do you have a more effective way to keep those people here?"
Qiao Ziming thought for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "We can just bring out the Emperor; they'll have no choice but to go!"
Xie Xuan scoffed upon hearing this: "Hmph! Bringing up the Emperor? Does the Prince have an imperial edict? Forcing those people to go to Fukang County will only backfire!"
"Your Highness previously said you felt the Princess Consort was a stranger, but have you ever truly wanted to understand her?!"
"If you truly understood the Princess, you wouldn't have said those hurtful things!"
"Didn't you notice? When the princess had a birthmark on her face, she didn't wear a veil, but after the birthmark disappeared, she started wearing one when she went out."
"What does this mean? It means that the princess doesn't care about her appearance at all! She's not the kind of vain woman the prince thinks she is, who only enjoys the lustful gazes of men!"
At this moment, it would be a lie to say that Su Muxi wasn't moved. She smiled slightly at Xie Xuan, then looked at Qiao Ziming and said, "Your Highness, I don't care what you think of me, as long as you can focus your attention on the epidemic in Fukang County."
"If the Crown Prince has nothing else to say to me, then let's continue with our business."
Qiao Ziming opened his mouth, wanting to explain to Su Muxi, and subconsciously reached out to grab Su Muxi's wrist, but was stopped by Xie Xuan's raised long leg.
"Young Master, you can speak your mind. Why resort to violence? Do you think losing a finger isn't enough?!"
"you!"
Seeing that Qiao Ziming and Xie Xuan were about to start arguing again, Su Muxi quickly shouted, "Enough! You two go out. We can continue to discuss the next matter later."
Upon hearing this, Zhong Bin, who was driving the carriage, immediately stopped the carriage. Mai Kun tacitly lifted the curtain from the outside, staring at Qiao Ziming with a cold gaze, "Should we put a footstool for the young master?"
…
After Qiao Ziming got back into his carriage, he slapped his forehead in frustration.
Su Muxi had finally managed to mend her relationship with him, but he messed it up!
However, he still felt annoyed by Su Muxi's deliberate removal of her veil in public.
I always have this feeling that my wife is not being faithful.
However, to his surprise, he saw Liang Juan in the line that evening.
"What are you doing here?! Didn't I tell you to get lost?!"
Qiao Ziming thought that Liang Juan had secretly followed him and wanted to pester him.
Unexpectedly, Liang Juan said, "I came here with Young Master Tao."
"Tao Rong?!"
Qiao Ziming frowned.
Seeing this, Tao Rong, who was not far away, rushed over and hugged Liang Juan tightly.
"What brings you here, Your Highness?!"
Looking at Tao Rong's hand around Liang Juan's waist, and then at Liang Juan's shy expression, Qiao Ziming suddenly sneered: "Heh! Nothing! I just didn't expect Young Master Tao to have a habit of wearing used shoes."
As he spoke, Qiao Ziming deliberately looked at Liang Juan. Although he didn't say anything, the meaning he was conveying was quite clear.
Thinking that Tao Rong was unaware of Liang Juan's identity, they were surprised to see Tao Rong say with a serious expression, "I know that Juan'er served the young master before, but since the young master has already driven Juan'er away, then who Juan'er serves or is with afterward is none of the young master's business. Isn't that right?!"
After saying that, he put his arm around Liang Juan and left, leaving Qiao Ziming standing there alone.
The feeling at this moment was strangely familiar to Qiao Ziming.
Su Muxi, who had left the Marquis's mansion, was initially thought to be unwanted by anyone, but unexpectedly, Ye Zeyu took the initiative to propose to her and she became the Princess of Yong'an.
He thought that after Liang Juan was driven away by him, she would end up on the streets and be bullied at will.
Unexpectedly, he became Tao Rong's man!
He wondered if he would regret driving Liang Juan away, just as he would regret divorcing Su Muxi.
However, he was very certain of one thing: he did not want Liang Juan to serve other men!
He doesn't want his woman anymore, and he can't have any other man either!
