Su Muxi did not answer Qiao Ziming's question, but instead looked Qiao Ziming up and down.
"It seems the young master has recovered from his injuries, so he's come to this princess to cause trouble?"
Upon hearing this, Qiao Ziming realized the inappropriateness of his tone just now.
Su Muxi was not that kind of despicable person; he knew that.
Therefore, the person just now should just be Su Muxi's subordinate. The reason why he appeared in Su Muxi's room so early in the morning was probably to report something to Su Muxi.
Just as he had figured this out, his eyes reddened when he saw the red marks on Su Muxi's neck.
"Su Muxi! What's that on your neck?!"
Su Muxi was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously reached out to touch her neck, but quickly realized what was happening.
Besides Ye Zeyu, who else could it be!
She looked both ashamed and angry, but when she looked at Qiao Ziming, her eyes were filled with coldness.
"Your Highness, how many times do I have to say it? No matter what I do, it has nothing to do with you anymore. Even if I commit adultery, it is Prince Yong'an who will be cuckolded, not you, Qiao Ziming!"
Furthermore, even if every man in the world were to die, I would never go back to an old flame!
Qiao Ziming refused to believe what Su Muxi was saying. "Then why did you save me?! Since you said we had nothing to do with each other anymore, why did you save me again and again?!"
As they were talking, Qiao Ziming tried to grab Su Muxi, but Mai Kun pushed him away.
At the same time, Su Muxi's emotionless voice rang out, causing Qiao Zimo to lose his footing and sit directly on the ground.
"If I could avoid saving you, I definitely wouldn't."
Previously, it was to repay Qiao Xiuyuan's kindness, and in Fukang County, it was because of the emperor's decree.
Therefore, every time she saved Qiao Ziming, it wasn't because she wanted to save him, but because she had no choice but to.
"Mai Kun, help the Marquis of Anyang's heir back to his room to rest."
Upon hearing this, McQueen said "yes" and then picked up Qiao Ziming without any mercy, as if he were a chick.
Qiao Ziming gave Su Muxi a deep look, then shoved Mai Kun aside and walked straight back to his room.
After Qiao Ziming left, Su Muxi turned around and was about to call Ye Zeyu out, but Ye Zeyu pushed open the door and walked out first.
His gaze held a hint of amusement, which made Su Muxi blush.
Suddenly, she realized that the marks Ye Ziyu made on her neck were intentional!
Ye Ziyu had sneaked over, and now that Xiao Ce had led his troops back to the capital, it was inconvenient for Ye Ziyu to stay in Jinzhou City any longer. So he planned to leave Jinzhou City after having a meal.
During the meal, Ye Zeyu said that Geng Nian was his man and could be used without worry. He also said that he had arranged many secret guards to protect the Su family in Jinzhou City, and that he would definitely ensure the Su family's safety.
Hearing Ye Zeyu's arrangements, Su Muxi felt a warmth in her heart and softly said, "I will return to the capital the day after tomorrow."
Ye Zeyu was taken aback when he heard Su Muxi's words.
"Although the situation in Jinzhou City has been brought under control, it will probably take some time to resolve it completely. Besides, this is your first time in Jinzhou. Don't you plan to stay at the Su family's place for a while?"
But Su Muxi laughed and said, "The matter of Jinzhou City can be handled by Imperial Censor Xie. As for the Su family, to be honest, I have no feelings for them. If I had to choose, I would rather go back to the capital to be with my husband."
Ye Zeyu reached out and grasped Su Muxi's hand, "Xi'er..."
However, before he could speak, McQueen's voice rang out from outside the door, "Your Highness, Imperial Censor Xie and Eunuch Feng are requesting an audience outside."
Su Muxi sighed inwardly.
She finally managed to meet Ye Zeyu, but there were always people interrupting her.
But she had no choice but to see him, so she could only let McQueen take him to the flower hall first.
Su Muxi took Ye Zeyu's hand in return and said in a slightly coquettish tone, "I can't bear to part with you."
"How could I bear to part with Xi'er!"
The two lingered in the room for a long time, and finally Su Muxi tearfully saw Ye Zeyu off.
After Ye Zeyu left, Su Muxi went to the flower hall.
Seeing that Su Muxi's eyes were red, Xie Chi hurriedly asked with concern, "Is Your Highness feeling unwell?"
"Yes, I am indeed feeling a bit unwell, so I plan to leave the day after tomorrow and return to the capital."
Upon hearing Su Muxi's words, Xie Chi and Feng Shan exchanged a glance, both looking surprised.
Especially Feng Shan.
In Feng Shan's view, Su Muxi would likely take the opportunity to stay and secure some benefits for the Su family.
So his purpose in coming here was to persuade Su Muxi to return to the capital. He didn't expect Su Muxi to bring it up herself, and in such a hurry.
Ignoring their surprised reactions, Su Muxi took out two letters from her sleeve and had Bai Zhi hand them to Xie Chi.
"Lord Xie, this is what I found in Jia Ren's residence. As for whether the contents of the letter are true or false, Lord Xie and Eunuch Feng need to investigate it thoroughly."
The Emperor only ordered me to deal with the plague in Fukang County. Now that the plague has been resolved, it's time for me to return and report. As for the matter in Jinzhou City, I'll leave it to Lord Xie and Eunuch Feng.”
Xie Chi opened the letter and read it. After seeing the contents, he couldn't hide his surprise.
Upon seeing this, Feng Shan turned his head to glance at the letter, and was quite surprised when he saw the signature on it.
The person who wrote the letter to Jia Ren was actually Qiao Xiuyuan, the Marquis of Anyang!
When Xie Chi looked up again, his gaze towards Su Muxi was filled with determination. "Your Highness, please return to the capital with peace of mind. Leave the matters here to me and Eunuch Feng. As for the Su family being wronged, we will also give them an explanation."
This matter has far-reaching implications. If Qiao Xiuyuan was behind it all, then it is not something that Su Muxi, a mere princess, can handle.
