Fu Xing retreated. He Yuncheng looked at his back with a playful smile on his face. Xiao Yunjin's personal attendants couldn't tell whether they were real or fake. Things were getting more and more interesting.

He stood up, shook the grapes in his hand, and walked towards Su Muxi's room. It was time to go see his wife.

He came out at a good time, and a misty fairy came towards the light and shadow. To say that she was as beautiful as a fairy is not so much, but her temperament was the most important. She had a golden flower on her forehead, which made the light and shadow look more lively. Her hands were even more attractive, as delicate as jade, and as clear as water.

She came quietly and left slowly, leaving only a hint of fragrance.

He Yuncheng stared at the departing figure for a long time, until the bell hanging on the corner tower was blown by the wind, and then he came to his senses.

The lingering fragrance was still lingering around his nose, but He Yuncheng was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. The round grapes fell from his hands, rolled under the window frame, and were stepped on by the cigarette that had just left the room.

This Xishui Town is truly a place where hidden dragons and crouching tigers are everywhere. He Yuncheng glanced at the crushed grapes, dropped his luggage and cigarettes, and went into the room.

Su Muxi had already changed her clothes. She leaned against the head of the bed, and turned her gaze from the bell outside the window to Xiao Yunjin who had just entered the room.

After not seeing each other for a few days, she always felt that Xiao Yunjin seemed different.

"Ma'am, but I think there are many people."

The two of them had already fallen out in the capital, and he was still behaving like this, which was really hypocritical. She must have drunk too much Ma Fei San and her head was numb, so she felt that the scheming Xiao Yunjin was like a different person.

"I just took the medicine and I feel really tired. Since the prince cares about me so much, why don't you think about our situation after returning to Beijing and how to solve it!"

"What kind of situation is this? The princess is very cunning. She used the enemy's tactics to capture the princess and suppressed the rebels. I'm afraid the threshold of the marquis' mansion will be trampled down after she returns to the capital."

Su Muxi had doubts in her heart and wanted to know how much he knew about this matter. She followed his words and said, "Traitor? Who is he?"

"The chief general of the Huaiyang Army, Wu Xu."

Wu Xu, if she hadn't met him in her previous life, she would have been fooled by He Yuncheng.

Wu Xu was a general under King Huaiyang and a great general in the attack on the Yu Kingdom. He died in battle along with Xiao Yunjin some time ago.

Of course, this is just the news on the surface. Her memories from her previous life told her that Wu Xu was Xiao Yunjin's man, and was the weapon that Xiao Yunjin used to kill King Huaiyang after he ascended the throne.

It was because she knew this that she mentioned the matter of hiding troops in Cangliang Mountain when she was having a secret conversation with the emperor.

But she didn't mention Wu Xu. There was no assassination attempt on Prince Huaiyang in her previous life. The court was in turmoil and the northwest was in war. It was a blessing that Prince Huaiyang didn't come over. How could there be an assassination?

Su Muxi looked at He Yuncheng. He was sitting on an octagonal round table, drinking tea with his head down. His expression was tainted by the heat. She couldn't tell what he was doing, so she could only ask, "Isn't Wu Xu dead?"

She tried her best to act shocked and wanted to know more details about the incident.

"I don't know the details. I was trapped on a wild hillside and was rescued by the Sixth Prince. He was ordered to come and assist you, so I followed him all the way here."

Su Muxi watched him slowly put down the teacup and turned to look at her. His dark eyes were moistened by the heat and he looked a little aggrieved for no reason. "I really thought the lady was kidnapped."

There was some indignation in her tone, as if she was a heartless person.

He changed the subject a lot. After not seeing each other for a few days, Su Muxi felt that Xiao Yunjin's tactics had become more sophisticated. With her brain that had been exposed to Ma Fei San, she was no match for him at all.
