Although Ye Zeyu had come from Ganzhou at breakneck speed, without sleeping for two days, and had killed several horses in the process.
However, he remained remarkably energetic when facing Su Muxi.
If it weren't for the fact that Su Muxi was pregnant at the time, it would have taken a long time to recover.
Su Muxi lay on Ye Zeyu's chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, and felt extremely at ease.
"Tell me, how did you suddenly come here?"
Ye Zeyu gently touched Su Muxi's lower abdomen with his large hand, "I came here because I was worried about you and the baby."
After saying that, he sighed and said, "Alas! But my worries were unnecessary. Xi'er is resourceful and wise. Even when I am not by her side, she is safe and sound. This makes me, her husband, seem useless."
He had always known that Xi'er was intelligent, but he never expected that she could handle such a complicated situation in Jinzhou so well and make such clear arrangements.
Even if he weren't present today, Shao Jie would have brought people to the scene in time.
So today's heroic rescue of the damsel in distress is simply because he took the initiative.
Su Muxi snuggled against Ye Zeyu's chest like a lazy kitten. "Who said that! With you here, I would feel at ease even if I were facing a mountain of knives and a sea of fire."
"Thank goodness you came, otherwise my child and I would have been terrified today."
Ye Zeyu put his arm around Su Muxi and gave her a general account of what had happened in Ganzhou.
With Ye Chengping dead, there was no longer any threat in Ganzhou.
In less than half a day, Ye Zeyu led his troops to kill all the stubborn members of the Heavenly Immortal Sect.
The swift and decisive measures turned all the officials in Ganzhou into obedient quails.
Ye Zeyu, on the night he wiped out the Heavenly Immortal Sect, pretended to be injured and then rode away from Ganzhou that same night.
Su Muxi never expected that the events in Ganzhou were also related to Qiao Xiuyuan, and she never expected that Qiao Xiuyuan would ask his own daughter to do those things.
"Qiao Xiuyuan is truly a scoundrel!"
After Su Muxi finished speaking with a hateful tone, she then recounted how Qiao Ziming had almost been killed.
Of course, Su Muxi also mentioned that Qiao Xiuyuan had ulterior motives towards her.
Ye Zeyu frowned. He knew Qiao Xiuyuan intended to kill Qiao Ziming, but he never expected it was all for Xi'er…
"Don't worry, Xi'er, once I return to the capital, I will definitely not let Qiao Xiuyuan off easily!"
But then Su Muxi said, "The events in Jinzhou and Ganzhou are enough to show that Qiao Xiuyuan has rebellious intentions. In that case, it would be better to let the Emperor deal with him."
And then there are Qiao Ziming and Qiao Zixian. Since they are not dead, they will definitely want to get an explanation from Qiao Xiuyuan.
Perhaps we should observe the situation from the sidelines and find an opportunity to exonerate Uncle Yu.
As for the rest, we'll have plenty of time to settle accounts with Qiao Xiuyuan.
Ye Ziyu was moved upon hearing this.
He hugged Su Muxi even tighter and said softly, "Xi'er, if Uncle Yu knew that I married you, he would definitely be happy for me."
Su Muxi slightly twitched the corners of her mouth, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Ye Zeyu, maybe I really am not my father's biological daughter."
Chang Zhong and Qiao Ziming said that Qiao Xiuyuan insisted on me marrying into the Marquis's family because he wanted to treat me as his and Yun Shi's child.
So I might be General Lin's daughter... I..."
Before Su Muxi could finish speaking, Ye Zeyu interrupted her.
"So what if you are General Lin's daughter? My father-in-law is still my father-in-law, and you are still my wife."
When I exonerate Uncle Yu, I will certainly exonerate General Lin as well.
Besides, if you really are General Lin's daughter, it would be a fulfillment of the destiny between our two generations.
Uncle Yu and General Lin are on good terms, and I have married General Lin's daughter. I imagine Uncle Yu would be even happier if he knew.
"And if General Lin knew that her daughter married me, he would surely be quite relieved."
In fact, from the very beginning, after Ye Ziyu learned that Su Muxi looked extremely similar to General Lin's wife, Yun Shi, he believed in his heart that Su Muxi was General Lin's daughter.
Suddenly, Ye Zeyu remembered a joke that General Lin had made to Uncle Yu twenty years ago.
"Your Highness, I think the First Prince is quite good. If I give birth to a daughter, how about you arrange for her to marry the First Prince?"
If Xi'er is indeed General Lin's daughter, then is the fate between him and Xi'er perhaps due to the spirits of Prince Yu and General Lin in heaven, bringing them together?
"Xi'er, it's so wonderful to have you as my wife..."
"I am the one. It's so good to marry you."
…
Ye Zeyu hadn't slept for two days, while Su Muxi felt tired and exhausted after relaxing.
As a result, the two of them fell asleep in each other's arms and slept until the next morning.
"Xi'er, you must be starving. Let me help you get dressed."
As soon as Su Muxi opened her eyes, she saw Ye Zeyu with his beard back on.
Su Muxi slowly got up, her long hair cascading down like a waterfall. The beautiful sight of the brocade quilt slipping off made Ye Zeyu's eyes darken. He hurriedly put a coat on Su Muxi to cover up the spring scenery in front of him.
Su Muxi reached out and touched Ye Zeyu's beard, amused, "You look more like a fierce mountain bandit."
Ye Zeyu was stunned for a moment upon hearing this. He moved closer to Su Muxi, deliberately pretending to look fierce, and lifted Su Muxi's chin.
"Would that beauty be willing to be my wife?"
Su Muxi smiled charmingly, "It's not impossible, but I have to ask my husband first."
Finally, with Ye Zeyu's help, Su Muxi got dressed and came out of the room.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I stepped out, I saw Qiao Ziming standing at the gate, trying to go inside.
Su Muxi saw Qiao Zimo, and Qiao Zimo also saw Su Muxi.
Of course, Qiao Ziming also saw Ye Zeyu standing next to Su Muxi, wearing a fake beard.
Su Muxi quickly pushed Ye Zeyu and said in a low voice, "You go inside first, I'll go deal with Qiao Zimo."
Ye Ziyu was in a pretty good mood, but when he saw Qiao Ziming, his mood was instantly clouded.
She glanced coldly at Qiao Ziming at the courtyard gate, then at Su Muxi, whose eyes were filled with worry.
Ye Ziyu had no choice but to obey and go inside.
Qiao Ziming stood at the courtyard gate, unable to understand what Su Muxi and Ye Zeyu were saying.
However, the intimacy between the two was evident, which ignited a sudden, inexplicable anger within Qiao Ziming.
As Su Muxi walked up to him, the question slipped out.
"Who was that person just now? Why did they come out of your room?!"
