Ye Zeyu grew up in a military camp and had only met a handful of women.
Apart from the Empress Dowager, there were no other women who had been close to him.
But now there's Su Muxi.
Looking down at Su Muxi in his arms, Ye Zeyu suddenly felt a burning sensation in his body.
So a woman's body is so soft?
So small, it's probably not much bigger than General Liu's hunting dog.
Normally, the smell of a woman would make him feel nauseous if he got too close, but Su Muxi only had a faint medicinal fragrance, which made him feel at ease.
As for Su Muxi's constant comments about her frightening appearance, Ye Zeyu completely disagreed.
Many people are blinded or slashed on the battlefield. In terms of frightening people, Su Muxi is not even qualified to frighten new recruits. She can only be talked about in this peaceful capital.
Moreover, Su Muxi's birthmark is only on her left cheek; if you only look at her right cheek, she's quite pretty...
Su Muxi was also a little confused when she felt the warmth from Ye Zeyu's body.
Ye Zeyu was the tallest man she had ever seen. His imposing figure was incredibly intimidating. Unexpectedly, being held in Ye Zeyu's arms gave her the illusion that she was a child.
There was only one candle lit inside the car. The dim candlelight made it impossible for her to see Ye Zeyu's eyes, but she could clearly see the lower half of his face, which was not covered by the black gold mask.
Wasn't Ye Zeyu always in the Northern Frontier? But upon closer inspection, his skin was actually whiter than that of many women.
Although you can't see the whole nose, you can tell that Ye Zeyu's nose is very straight, just like him, arrogant and haughty.
The shape of the lips is beautiful, but the lips are a bit thin.
It is said that people with thin lips are also very cold-hearted, and this is proven in Qiao Ziming. It is likely that Ye Zeyu is the same.
With his sharply defined chin and prominent Adam's apple, Ye Zeyu exudes a resolute yet alluring charm.
I just don't know what the full face looks like under that black gold mask. Is Ye Ziyu wearing a mask all day to create mystery, or is he ashamed to be seen because of the scars on his face?
In this day and age, not only women care about their appearance, but men do too.
If Ye Zeyu really has a scar on his face, could she use the skin-regenerating ointment as a bargaining chip to negotiate with him?
Thinking this, Su Muxi subconsciously reached out to remove Ye Zeyu's mask, but her hand was grabbed by Ye Zeyu just as it was about to touch the mask.
"stand up."
Ye Zeyu spoke in a deep voice, but if you listened carefully, his voice was warmer than before.
Su Muxi awkwardly withdrew her hand and got up from Ye Zeyu's arms, but just as she stood up, the carriage stopped again, causing her to fall back into Ye Zeyu's arms.
“…”
“…”
Ye Zeyu didn't look at Su Muxi, nor did he dwell on the fact that Su Muxi was in his arms. Instead, he coldly asked the guards outside the carriage, "What's going on?"
But then a guard outside said, "Someone's coming from ahead. It looks like the Second Prince's carriage."
The carriages used by princes for their travels all had specific specifications.
The current emperor has only three princes: the eldest prince Ye Zeyu, the second prince Ye Zerui, and the third prince Ye Zeming.
The Third Prince's birth mother, Consort Li, was very strict with him, never allowing him to go out after dark.
The carriage coming from the opposite direction must undoubtedly belong to the Second Prince.
Upon hearing the guard's words, Ye Ziyu tightened his arms around Su Muxi, who was about to get up again, and then warned her in a low voice, "Don't move around, and don't say anything carelessly later."
Su Muxi was caught off guard by the hug.
Just now, she was merely sitting on Ye Zeyu's lap, her body in contact with his chest.
But now, he was suddenly embraced tightly by Ye Ziyu…
She instinctively tried to break free, but after listening to Ye Zeyu's words, she obediently shrank into Ye Zeyu's arms and didn't move.
She sensed Ye Zeyu's wariness of the Second Prince.
The Second Prince, Ye Zerui, was born to the Empress and was considered by many to be the only suitable candidate for Crown Prince.
It is said that the Second Prince was humble and polite, and treated scholars with respect. He was highly regarded by both court officials and common people.
Even his father had previously praised the Second Prince for being approachable, humble, and easygoing.
Judging from Ye Zeyu's reaction, it's not hard to tell that the Second Prince is no pushover.
At the very least, her relationship with Ye Ziyu wasn't very good.
Ye Zeyu narrowed his dark eyes, listening carefully to the sounds outside the carriage. He then instructed the guards outside the carriage, "Continue forward and take a detour back to the Prince's Mansion."
Ye Zerui was ordered to go south for inspection some time ago, which is why Ye Zeyu did not hold a palace banquet upon his triumphant return to the capital.
The Emperor wanted to wait for Ye Zerui to return before holding the palace banquet.
Ye Ziyu remained noncommittal about the emperor's favoritism, after all, one was a son who grew up in the military camp, and the other was a son he had watched grow up by his side.
Everyone knows perfectly well who is close and who is distant.
Logically, Ye Zerui should have returned to Beijing in two more days, but unexpectedly he came back overnight.
Ye Zeyu's lips curled into a cold smile.
It seems his good second brother is eager to meet him!
Although he also wanted to see Ye Zerui, after glancing at Su Muxi in his arms, Ye Zeyu decided to return to the mansion first.
The carriage he was traveling in this time was just an ordinary carriage, and he only hoped that the other party would not notice and would pass by their carriage directly.
Just as the two carriages came to a stop side by side, a gentle male voice came from outside the carriage, causing Ye Zeyu to tighten his grip on Su Muxi's arm.
