“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?”
