Our Binding Love: My Gentle Tyrant

What’s Her Goal? (1)

Realistically, that princess was so favored that there was no way that Zhao Mingyu hadn’t heard of her before! What’s more, those sent to find information on Ye Mu also came empty handed. To her surprise, how could such an important figure not have any news to discover? It was truly infuriating!

When the minister first heard this, he frowned in confusion because they most definitely investigated as thoroughly as they can before arriving. With the exception of Ye Mu, everything else about the Mo Country was investigated!

It was a well known fact that Mo Linyuan was truly the one one returning of the royal bloodline. The others were killed by the Empress Dowager. How could there suddenly emerge an unexpected adopted princess?

But he then came to a realization that made his face morph completely!

“This minister confirmed that there is only one royal member left in the Mo Country. But, there is definitely one woman with a status that is no less than that of a princess… and that would be Ye Mu! Princess, could it be that you’ve met Ye Mu?!”

From the rooftop, Ye Mu smirked. Although she was discovered, she was still feeling smug with how things turned out so far.

Although this Zhao Mingyu’s martial art wasn’t bad, it is nothing compared to Ye Mu’s.

“What?!” Zhao Mingyu shot out of her seat. As she pondered on this, her face turned unsightly.

“But that Ye Mu… she looked so young! Are you sure she’s fourteen years old? I thought she was at most twelve years old! Did you guys find false news?”

A guy like Mo Linyuan… he couldn’t possibly love a young girl like that, right…?

Zhao Mingyu couldn’t even fathom this.

The minister frowned, “It cannot be wrong! We may not be able to find out specific information about Ye Mu, but the favored woman by the Mo Country’s monarch can only be her!”

“That’s just…” Zhao Mingyu was left speechless. That Ye Mu actually lied to her with her innocent face, and Zhao Mingyu had no idea! No wonder she was named Mo Linyuan’s deeply rooted beloved.

“What should we do now? Princess, hopefully you didn’t reveal anything to Ye Mu?”

Zhao Mingyu shook her head, “She didn’t ask me anything, so I recklessly let me guard down. But, only is Mo Linyuan very difficult to deal with, to add on this cunning Ye Mu…”

She clenched her fist and suddenly feared she may fail to accomplish her mission.

The minister also held some doubt, but he still believed in his own princess.

“Don’t be discouraged Princess. You are talented, naturally beautiful, literate, and capable of martial arts. Clearly, you are way better than that Ye Mu. Besides, you also said that Ye Mu is very young, so then she and Mo Linyuan cannot officially become a couple yet! You still have a chance.”

What he said was not unreasonable. Regardless of how Mo Linyuan and Ye Mu’s love may seem more solid than gold, they still haven’t gone all the way with each other. There is still a chance. After all, men would always treat the first woman they’ve been with differently.

Zhao Mingyu nodded, “It would seem we have to be more careful next time. Come closer…”

She beckoned him over to whisper a few words into the minister’s ear.

Their voices were too low for Ye Mu to hear clearly. But it didn’t matter, she is confident they will be able to thwart their plans like soldiers who can block the water from flooding the lands.

It would seem this Princess who has come here to Mo Country had some secrets she cannot tell anyone! If Ye Mu remembered correctly, this princess was supposed to have become the empress of the Zhao Country. Yet, she was now a princess married off far away, which was truly weird.

The moment Ye Mu returned, she saw Mo Linyuan was still reading through the account books. It was almost supper time, yet he was still working so diligently.

The monarchs from other countries had never done early daily assessments of cases like Mo Linyuan. Take for example the Yun Country’s monarch: it was said that he never attended any early assessments. Compared to the Mo Country, Mo Linyuan made sure to attend them daily with skillful execution of the task at hand. It was most likely because other people are unable to put in as much effort as he does…

“You’ve returned?” Mo Linyuan looked up and saw Ye Mu’s dazed look. He got up, walked over, and started brushing her skirt clean.

“Were you climbing on the roof tiles? You’re covered in dirt.”
