Hearing Zhao Yefan's voice, Su Muxue looked over. She looked at Zhao Yefan quietly, her heartbeat speeding up unconsciously.

But it was only a moment, and Su Muxue sneered: "How could someone from this princess's mansion make a mistake? Considering that Prince Zhao is a very busy man, I didn't invite him."

"But since Prince Zhao is here, why not go out and have a stroll in the courtyard?"

"It's a rare occasion that all the noble ladies in the capital have gathered here today. Prince Zhao, please see if there is a suitable one and choose one to be the Crown Prince's consort. I will not keep you here."

Then she turned her head and looked at Yan Wenxuan with a smile, and even her voice was a little gentle: "Prince Yan, what do you like on a daily basis?"

The three people sitting below noticed that the atmosphere between Su Muxue and Zhao Yefan was a little weird, but they pretended not to hear it. Yan Wenxuan was called by Su Muxue again, and then he stood up and answered Su Muxue.

Zhao Yefan knew the purpose of Su Muxue's hosting this banquet. He stood there and watched Su Muxue chatting and laughing with Yan Wenxuan, Huo Yunchen, and Yang Yulang. No one present even looked at him.

After a while, a young eunuch came over and whispered, "Prince Zhao, you should not be here unless the princess summons you. Please follow me out."

However, Zhao Yefan pushed the young eunuch away and walked straight to a chair beside him and sat down. Everyone present was stunned by Zhao Yefan's actions.

Zhao Yefan poured himself a cup of tea slowly, took a sip, and said, "It's so boring outside. I like to stay here and chat with the three gentlemen."

He first glanced at Yan Wenxuan and said, "Prince Yan, doesn't your mother usually hide you well? Why did she let you out today?"

Yan Wenxuan was suddenly pointed at by Zhao Yefan, and hurriedly replied: "My mother said that this time the princess invited me, so I have to come."

"Are you coming to this banquet because of the princess's favor or because of your mother's order?"

Yan Wenxuan was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to answer. Although he was good-looking, he was not very smart. He usually just did whatever his mother said and never had his own ideas.

Zhao Yefan smiled and said, "Prince Yan, you don't know how to answer. You should go back and ask my mother first, and then answer my question."

Yan Wenxuan was stunned for a moment, and foolishly replied to Zhao Yefan with a "good".

Zhao Yefan smiled at Yan Wenxuan without knowing why, then turned to look at Yang Yulang.

"New champion Yang Yulang, if I remember correctly, your father Yang Wenyan was only an eighth-rank official in Rong County. Later, because of corruption, he paid a huge price to be exempted from punishment."

"But you are different from your father. You have been very smart since you were young. You always ranked first in every exam. You were also sponsored by your uncle from your mother's family who is a merchant. You became the top scholar at a young age."

"It's just that there is something that I can't figure out. Your maternal uncle has betrothed his only daughter to you."

"But what happened that after you became the top scorer in high school, the first thing you did was to ask your childhood sweetheart cousin to break off the engagement?"

Yang Yulang is the new top scholar. During his past year in the capital, he has received a lot of attention. Countless young ladies from aristocratic families want to marry him.

Now hearing Zhao Yefan suddenly speak so bluntly about him and his family, it was undoubtedly like stripping him naked in public.

Yang Yulang was just about to step forward and argue with Zhao Yefan, but then he remembered that Zhao Yefan's father was the Duke, and was not someone he could afford to offend.

He could only smile awkwardly and said, "Perhaps Prince Zhao heard it wrong."

Yang Yulang is not a fool. He noticed that something was wrong between Zhao Yefan and Su Muxue just now.

Exposing his shortcomings in front of everyone was a warning to him not to dream of Su Muxue. Thinking of this, he stood up immediately and turned to talk to Su Muxue.

"Princess, I suddenly remembered that I have some things to deal with in the Hanlin Academy today, so I will take my leave now. I hope the princess will forgive me."

Su Muxue did not say anything, she just looked at Zhao Yefan with a slightly cold face. However, Chunyun beside her felt something was wrong and immediately signaled to the eunuch next to her to take Yang Yulang away.

As soon as Yang Yulang left, Zhao Yefan turned to look at Huo Yunchen. He heard that Mr. Huo had a large number of concubines and maids in the backyard.

"I have also heard that Master Yang is a man who knows how to have fun. When dealing with your concubines, whipping them is just a light punishment. I heard that quite a few of them have been crippled."

"Recently, you suddenly sent all your concubines to a villa in the countryside overnight. I want to know, after you marry the princess, will you take those concubines back?"

Hitting people in the face, poking people in the heart. Zhao Yefan completely exposed the true colors of the three people carefully selected by Su Muxue.

Huo Yunchen was about to argue when he heard Su Muxue yell at Zhao Yefan: "Zhao Yefan! What do you mean?"

Chunyun on the side secretly cried out in dismay. She had been serving Su Muxue since she was a child, so how could she not understand that Zhao Yefan was different in Su Muxue's heart.

Chunyun immediately asked someone to invite Yan Wenxuan and Huo Yunchen to leave, and she and a group of maids and eunuchs left the tea room. Before leaving, she closed the door tightly.

Seeing that everyone had left, Zhao Yefan stood up and looked at Su Muxue.

"Are these the three guys you carefully selected in the capital?"

Su Muxue sneered, "Who I choose has nothing to do with you. Who gave you the guts to run to this princess's mansion and cause trouble?"

Zhao Yefan walked towards Su Muxue step by step. He lifted the pearl curtain in front of Su Muxue and stared into Su Muxue's eyes.

"What does it have to do with me? I want to ask, you slept with me for no reason, and you turned around and wanted to marry another man."

"Su Muxue, I really didn't know you were such a woman who would abandon her after having sex with her!"

Su Muxue looked at Zhao Yefan's eyes and knew that he was really angry.

But, thinking that he was the one who was fickle first, changing women like changing clothes, how could he have the confidence to say that she abandoned him?

Su Muxue laughed in anger: "Prince Zhao, you are probably talking about yourself. With the speed at which you change women every day, the phrase 'seducing and abandoning' is most appropriate for you, right?"

After hearing what Su Muxue said, Zhao Yefan's anger subsided a lot.

"Oh~ Princess, do you have someone closely monitor me? Otherwise, how would you know that this prince would change women every day?"

"You are selecting a prince consort while sending people to monitor me. You are so hypocritical. Are you afraid that you are in love with me?"

Su Muxue couldn't help but get angry after hearing what Zhao Yefan said: "How could this princess send someone to monitor you? You spend the whole day with a woman and have a good time. If you don't want people to know, then don't do it yourself!"

Su Muxue pointed towards the door.

"Get out of here now, and don't hinder me from recruiting a consort."

Zhao Yefan didn't care: "Don't bother, you can only marry me anyway."

Su Muxue angrily asked: "Why should I marry you?"

Zhao Yefan: "I went out and asked around, and I found out that you have only slept with this prince, so you need to be responsible for this prince!"

Hearing Zhao Yefan say this, Su Muxue's eyes trembled. She didn't want to admit it, but she couldn't say it out loud.

Seeing Su Muxue standing there in a daze, Zhao Yefan hugged Su Muxue's waist and kissed her fiercely.

After a long time, Zhao Yefan looked at Su Muxue's lips, which were shiny and moist from his kiss, wiped the saliva from the corner of his lips, and smiled a little roguely.

Zhao Yefan licked his lips and said, "This body of mine cannot stand up to anyone except you."

"Silly boy, those women were called by me to irritate you. Since you have slept with me, you can only marry me and be responsible to me in this life!"
