The main reason Su Xing was unwilling to let Su Muxi marry Ye Zeyu was that he was afraid Su Muxi would be involved in the royal power struggle.
Since Ye Zeyu knew to protect Xi'er, it means that Ye Zeyu was also aware of the danger involved.
But since they knew all this, why did they still come to propose marriage in such a grand manner? They were clearly putting Xi'er in a very difficult position!
This is an insult to the Su family, they think they have no one to rely on!
He took a deep breath and smiled faintly.
"Xi'er, Dad is fine, he just doesn't want to drink this soup."
As she spoke, she pushed the soup towards Zhong Bin.
"You're young, drink more."
…
As night fell, Su Muxi still couldn't fall asleep. After tossing and turning for a long time, she decided to take a stroll in the courtyard.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I stepped out of the room, someone covered my mouth.
"Don't shout, I am Xiao Ce, a guard by the side of Prince Yong'an."
By the moonlight, Su Muxi opened her fox-like eyes wide and tried to turn around to see who it was.
This person was indeed the guard beside Ye Zeyu, so it was Ye Zeyu who sent him to come see her so late?
He blinked hard twice to indicate that he recognized the other person.
Seeing this, Xiao Ce slowly released his hand from Su Muxi's mouth. Only when Su Muxi showed no intention of crying out did he completely let go.
“Miss Su, I apologize for my rudeness just now, but the situation is urgent, so please come with me.”
As he spoke, he was about to take Su Muxi away.
Su Muxi hurriedly asked, "Has something happened to Prince Yong'an? Could he have been poisoned?"
At the palace banquet tonight, Ye Zeyu's guards came to find her again at this time, and the only thing she could think of was that Ye Zeyu was poisoned.
Xiao Ce nodded upon hearing this, "His Highness was indeed ambushed, so Miss Su should hurry and come with me!"
"Then you have to let me prepare some medicinal herbs, right? We can't just go like this, can we? If we have nothing, how am I supposed to detoxify your prince?"
Upon hearing Su Muxi's words, Xiao Ce showed a fleeting hint of embarrassment. "Miss Su will know when she gets there. If there is anything you need, the Prince's Mansion has everything you need."
After Su Muxi, panting, followed Xiao Ce to see Ye Zeyu, she finally understood what Xiao Ce meant by what he had just said.
At this moment, Ye Zeyu was leaning against the couch, his clothes wide open, revealing his strong chest.
The intimidating black mask had long been removed, revealing his handsome, otherworldly face.
Her cheeks were flushed, and she was looking at her with dreamy eyes.
Hearing his heavy breathing, even someone as inexperienced as Su Muxi could tell what was wrong with Ye Zeyu.
This isn't some kind of poisoning, it's clearly an aphrodisiac!
If Ye Zeyu was under the influence of aphrodisiacs, why would Xiao Ce travel all this way to find her?
Are there no other women in the Prince's mansion?!
Su Muxi was about to run away when Xiao Ce pushed her, causing her to fall directly into Ye Zeyu's broad and hot embrace.
"Miss Su, the Prince is entrusting his affairs to you!"
After saying that, Xiao Ce ran away as fast as he could, closing the door tightly behind him, giving Su Muxi no chance to escape.
Feeling Ye Zeyu's hot breath in her ear, Su Muxi snapped out of her daze and hurriedly reached out to push him away.
But Ye Zeyu's chest was like a red-hot iron plate; no matter how much force he used, he couldn't push it open even an inch.
"Ye Ziyu! Wake up! I am Su Muxi!"
Su Muxi's original intention was to remind Ye Zeyu who she was so that he could find someone else.
After all, there are many beautiful women who can cure Ye Zeyu's poison, so there's no need to ask this ugly woman for help.
Unexpectedly, upon hearing these words, Ye Ziyu, who was already out of his mind, made a move, but it was completely contrary to Su Muxi's expectations.
Instead of pushing her away, he kissed her lips directly.
Ye Zeyu's sudden action left Su Muxi's mind blank for a moment.
The burning lips, coupled with that powerful attack, made Su Muxi's legs go weak.
Ye Zeyu's aura was too domineering, giving Su Muxi no chance to catch her breath.
In Ye Zeyu's arms, Su Muxi was like a child. Ye Zeyu could easily lift her up with just one hand and change her position to a more intimate one.
Su Muxi struggled and sobbed, but she couldn't budge Ye Zeyu an inch.
After feeling Ye Zeyu's hot hand probe into her clothes, Su Muxi no longer hesitated. She reached out and pulled out the jade hairpin from her hair, swiftly and accurately stabbing it into Ye Zeyu's Shen Ting acupoint.
"hiss!"
Ye Ziyu felt a sharp pain on his forehead, then his consciousness returned, and his deep phoenix eyes gradually regained their awareness.
Upon seeing the person in his arms, he was momentarily confused about the situation, only murmuring, "Su Muxi?"
The voice was hoarse and warm, ringing in Su Muxi's ears, making her body go weak even more.
"Let me go!"
Su Muxi struggled again, not expecting Ye Zeyu to be so thick-skinned. She had been worried about hurting Ye Zeyu so much that she hadn't dared to make a move.
In hindsight, she had worried unnecessarily.
Even after she stabbed him hard, he didn't let go of her.
Is Ye Zeyu like a stubborn, persistent leech?
Upon hearing this, Ye Zeyu realized that he was currently holding Su Muxi. He gently pursed his lips, his eyes darkening, and his breathing became heavy and rapid again.
So this is what it's like to be a woman?
It was soft and fragrant, and he didn't find it unpleasant at all...
Su Muxi was surprised that Ye Zeyu not only did not let go of her, but also became confused again.
So she hurriedly said, "There are so many women in the Prince's mansion, why would Your Highness want an ugly woman like me?! Look closely, I am Su Muxi!"
