Threaten Him

“Despicable!”

Ye Mu’s words made Min Liang more excited! His beautiful peach eyes swept over Ye Mu. He clicked his tongue. “Don’t worry, I won’t touch you now. At least I need to fatten you up a bit first!”

With this said, he smiled widely and left. Behind him, Ye Mu showed a look of despise.

She must not let this person have his way. This won’t do. She must find a way to leave this place.

A few days later, Ye Mu felt her fever finally go down. These few days she’d been having a fever. After it went down, she felt life returning to her.

But that Min Liang was really low. He knew she could do martial arts, so ruanjin powder* had been put in her medicine and food. Now, she was just like an ordinary woman with very weak strength.

*ruanjin powder – poison to make the muscles and bones of the body weak and render the internal energy useless.

Now what? How could she run away?

Just as she was racking her brain, Mo Linyuan advanced victoriously, defeating Zhao’s and Yan’s armies again and again!

Because Yan Country suddenly recalled the reinforcements and suddenly wanted to withdraw troops, it gravely shocked the allied forces’ morale, and Mo Linyuan kept on charging. They couldn’t retreat even if they wanted to. The battlefront was slowly approaching Zhao Country from the frontier. Zhao’s monarch was distressed, was troubled in and out.

Those aristocrat families had said this war wasn’t a good idea from the beginning! For such a result now, Zhao’s monarch must give them an explanation, must compensate them!

Those families used to be strong. After all, in this world, a country could change its name every once in a few years, but aristocratic families were different. There were families that could carry on for millenniums, so when they became stronger, to calm their wrath, Zhao’s monarch could only present his eldest son to death.

But even if their wrath subsided, the news about the border continuously getting defeated made Zhao’s monarch stressed. Now Mo Linyuan was about to reach Zhao Country. If he couldn’t find a way to stop it, Mo Country could annex Zhao Country while they were at it!

Zhao Mingyu, who had restored her princess status, heard the summon and walked to the imperial chamber.

The imperial chamber smelled of medicine. Zhao Mingyu slightly frowned. She no longer had affection for this father. From the start of that matter in Mo Country until now, she realized his true colors. But right now, she pretended to drop a tear, stepping forward and asked:

“Father, are you all right?!”

The fifty-odd-year-old Zhao’s monarch’s forehead was tied with a yellow headband. His whole person was breathing weakly. When he saw Zhao Mingyu, his eyes teared up in an instant!

“Mu-er, you’re the only one who can save Zhao Country now.”

Zhao Mingyu was dumbfounded, and then quickly said, “Father, if you want to tell daughter something, just say it! As long as daughter can do it, daughter will not refuse!”

A thought flashed in his cloudy eyes. He didn’t have time to beat around the bush and directly said, “Mu-er, tell me honestly. That time at Taihe prison, did Mo’s people save you?”

Zhao Mingyu knew this matter wouldn’t remain hidden forever. After all, he was a country’s monarch, he would never be completely clueless.

Zhao Mingyu hadn’t thought of how to answer. The emperor on the bed said, “Since you’re friends with them, what if this sovereign sends you to Mo Country to ask for peace? No matter if it was losing the land or others, we will not fight this war anymore! No more!”

Zhao Mingyu’s smile was cold in her heart. Before when there was hope, he acted wilfully, but after knowing that there was no chance of success, he said he wouldn’t fight anymore. How could Mo Country agree?

Zhao Mingyu pretended to be embarrassed. “This is difficult to do, but for the sake of Zhao Country, daughter is willing to try. It’s just that daughter is merely a princess with no power. How will daughter go to represent Zhao Country? Others will ridicule a no one like me!”

If she wasn’t a no-one, how could a princess be sent to ask for peace?

Zhao’s monarch also understood this and immediately hardened his heart. “Then, this sovereign will grant you the title of the crown princess! Your elder brother is not filial, abetting father to do so many foolish things. Now father understands! Among this sovereign’s children, you are the most thoughtful! So this time, you must not disappoint father!”

Zhao Mingyu faintly smiled. “Then father, deliver the imperial decree. Once the crown princess has been decreed, daughter will immediately leave.”

Zhao Mingyu’s words made the old monarch dumbfounded. “This is no small matter. This sovereign has promised, how can you—”

Zhao Mingyu cut him off. “Father, it’s not that daughter doesn’t believe you, daughter really needs this status to be convincing! If father is not willing, daughter will not have the face to go out!”

“You!” The old monarch saw he couldn’t deceive Zhao Mingyu anymore and immediately was irritated.

But Zhao Mingyu had been fooled by him once. How could he do it the second time?

She slowly stood up. “This matter is settled. Father, daughter will await your decree.”

With this said, she paid no mind to the old monarch’s ill complexion and left. After she left, she immediately contacted a person from Mo Country to pass on a message. She felt a bit expectant for the decree that was coming.

On the other side, Li Country irresistibly attacked half of Yan Country. Luckily, at this moment, the reinforcements came back, but the difference in number made it difficult for Yan Country to defend.

In addition, Mo Linyuan kept on winning. Yan Country would soon follow Wei Country’s footsteps.

However, Min Liang was rather unhappy.

Originally, he wanted the allied forces to stall Mo Linyuan. This way, Mo Linyuan would use up all his strength. In the end, no matter whether Zhao Country or Yan Country, everyone would be stopped by Li Country.

But it was as if Mo Linyuan knew Ye Mu was in Zhao Country, attacking the allied forces until they were powerless and repeatedly retreating. If this went on, there was no need to mention Yan Country. Maybe Zhao Country would become a part of Mo Country. How could Min Liang sit still?

Afternoon came. Ye Mu raised her head and saw Min Liang come over. At this moment, Ye Mu’s hands were tied as well as her feet; Min Liang’s guard against her was impeccable, so the moment he appeared, Ye Mu was a little nervous. Sure enough, the next second, Min Lian’s hand touched her face.

That voice was a little sorrowful. “Clearly we’ve been feeding you these days, how do you still not fill out? And your complexion is so bad and looks really disappointing.”

Ye Mu stared at him, not uttering a word. The next second, Min Liang shoved Ye Mu onto the bed!

His gorgeous peach eyes clearly looked pretty, but in Ye Mu’s eyes, she only saw hideousness!

“What are you doing?!”

“You’re finally speaking? I thought you were mute.” Min Liang smiled, a palm on her side, the other hand touching her collar without good intention.

“I’ll tell you again. Mo Linyuan is stretching out the battle line and is about to reach here, but such a fast action is affecting my plan. To slow down his pace, what do you think I should do?”
