In the residence of the Marquis of Anyang
Qiao Ziming broke out in a cold sweat from the pain, but looking at the smile on Su Muxi's lips, he couldn't muster the slightest bit of anger.
Do you hate me that much?
Qiao Ziming murmured, his tone filled with unspeakable grievance.
Su Muxi paused slightly as she packed her medicine box, looking at Qiao Ziming with a puzzled expression. "I gave you painkillers at first, but you refused to take them. Who can you blame for that?"
"As for hating you? Qiao Ziming, you overestimate yourself. I'm very busy, I don't have that much free time to hate you. At most, we are just strangers who know each other. I don't need to waste my energy on a stranger."
After saying that, Su Muxi picked up her medicine box and prepared to leave.
But then Qiao Ziming hurriedly called out to her.
"etc!"
"What's wrong?"
"...When will I be able to stand up again?"
"It should be almost over in three more days, but you'll only be able to stand up with difficulty. If you want to fully recover, you'll need to rest for several months."
Qiao Ziming gave a soft "hmm" upon hearing this, and then, under Su Muxi's surprised gaze, said in a deep voice, "Thank you for your trouble."
Su Muxi raised an eyebrow. "You're too kind, Your Highness."
Watching Su Muxi leave without hesitation, Qiao Ziming lay on the bed and gave a bitter smile.
"hehe!"
It's true what they say, once you miss this opportunity, it's gone forever!
Painkillers are one, and so is Su Muxi...
Three years ago, he accepted his fate and married Su Muxi.
But three years later, he refused to accept his fate!
Regardless of whether he likes Su Muxi or not, Su Muxi can only be his woman!
Su Muxi was really busy. She had just left the Marquis of Anyang’s residence and was about to rush to Xunfang Tower.
In the afternoon, Yan'er's maid came to Shanci Hall and said that Yan'er's condition had changed and she wanted to ask Su Muxi to come and take a look.
Originally, Su Muxi wanted to go see her immediately, but when the maid learned that the carriage of the Marquis of Anyang's residence was waiting outside the door, she quickly changed her mind and said that Yan'er was fine and that Su Muxi could go see her when she had time.
Since the other party had said that, she couldn't say anything more and could only go see Qiao Ziming first.
Now that Qiao Ziming has finished treating her, she is worried about Yan'er and wants to go to Xunfanglou to check on her.
Refusing the carriage from the Marquis of Anyang's residence, Su Muxi glanced at the approaching darkness, put on her veil, and hurried towards Xunfang Tower.
Although she didn't care about her reputation, she didn't want Qiao Xiuyuan to know that she had gone to Xunfanglou to treat the girls there.
Because Qiao Xiuyuan was so protective of her, he certainly didn't want her to ruin her reputation.
They might step in to stop her, or even do something detrimental to Yan'er.
Therefore, her visit to Xunfanglou must be kept secret.
When Su Muxi arrived at the entrance of Xunfang Tower, it was already dusk. The tower was filled with lanterns, and the sounds of string and wind instruments and laughter could be heard.
Su Muxi was just about to continue walking forward and go around to the back door when she was almost kicked by a black horse galloping towards her.
Fortunately, the rider pulled on the reins in time, otherwise Su Muxi would have died on the spot.
Su Muxi looked up angrily, and her brows furrowed even more when she saw the black gold mask.
It was Ye Ziyu!
She had thought Ye Zeyu was a kind and polite person this morning, but she never expected him to be even worse than other playboys in the capital.
To dare ride a horse so wildly in the street, Prince Yong'an is truly showing off his power!
Although Su Muxi was wearing a veil, Ye Zeyu recognized her at a glance.
He glanced at the medicine box slung over Su Muxi's shoulder.
Ye Zeyu raised an eyebrow in surprise.
They actually came to a brothel to seek medical treatment.
However, it has nothing to do with him.
She deftly dismounted, tossed the reins to the pimp waiting nearby, and without glancing at Su Muxi again, walked straight into Xunfang Tower.
Su Muxi took a deep breath as she looked at Ye Zeyu's arrogant demeanor.
He almost hit someone while riding his horse, and didn't even apologize.
That's incredibly arrogant!
Xiao Ce did not recognize Su Muxi. Seeing Su Muxi staring blankly at his master's back, he took out a silver ingot and handed it to Su Muxi.
"Take this to calm your nerves."
Su Muxi hesitated for a moment, took the silver in her hand, and then said coldly, "A human life is only worth ten taels of silver?"
Xiao Ce frowned, thinking that Su Muxi thought it was too little, so he took out another silver ingot.
“My master is a very skilled rider and will not bump into anyone. You are fine, so hurry up and take the money and leave. This is not a place for a young lady like you.”
Xiao Ce only wanted to get rid of the other party quickly, but unexpectedly, he saw the other party flip his hand and pinch a four-inch long needle and stab it towards his neck.
Fortunately, he was quick and dodged in time, otherwise he might have been ambushed by this woman who appeared out of nowhere.
With a "whoosh," Xiao Ce drew the steel sword from his waist, his body instantly filled with murderous aura.
He was no ordinary guard, but a soldier who had fought his way back from the northern frontier. How could an unknown person possibly plot against him!
"Wait! So many people are watching you, do you intend to kill someone in the street?! My Qi Kingdom has its laws!"
Su Muxi hurriedly spoke, fearing that if she was a step too late, her head would roll.
As the saying goes, like master, like servant.
How dare they pull out a knife in the street! They really have a lot of nerve!
Xiao Ce glanced around. Although he didn't want to cause trouble for his master, he still didn't sheathe his sword. Instead, he pointed the sword at Su Muxi and asked sharply, "Speak! Who are you? Why did you try to ambush me?!"
Su Muxi blinked innocently, "How did I plot against you? Have you been feeling short of breath and having trouble sleeping lately?"
