Chapter 153 – Shameless (1)

Only after when the food was all wolfed down in hunger did Mo Shiwen and Mo Die stop eating; they were full to the point their stomachs could not handle anymore.

Inside the dungeon, they were mercilessly left to starve for a day or two. The food Zhao Yunqin gave them can be even described as something dogs would never touch. Naturally, eating a warm and delicious meal after five years of being captive, they were almost driven to tears of joy.

“Royal father, tell me, was the empress dowager indeed killed by royal brother? Then my royal brother is…he’s the emperor now!”

After Mo Shiwen had washed up, he sat there for the first time wearing neat and elegant clothes. Hearing his daughter, he rolled his eyes, “It would be terrific if that old demoness had died under my hands.”

He glanced at the guard stationed at the side and was not able to issue an order, locked in silence for a long time. After being viciously humiliated by Zhao Yunqin for five years, Mo Shiwen lost all the imposing aura he had from before.

“Y-you tell me, is the Empress Dowager, that old demon…how is that woman now….?” He stumbled with his words, his confidence utterly lacking. Still, the guard was very respectful with his reply.

“To answer the emperor, the empress dowager has already left the palace.”

His words frightened the two people at the table terrible they almost jumped in place!

“What?! She’s still alive?!”

Both of their faces instantly turned deathly pale. Previously, when Mo Linyuan came to save them, they thought that the old demoness was already dead. Who knew that she was still alive!

When Mo Linyuan brought Ye Mu in, he was in time to hear their exclaimed voices and couldn’t help but frown.

Similarly, when Ye Mu saw the gloomy face on Mo Linyuan, she comfortingly squeezed Mo Linyuan’s hand and gave him a beaming smile, only then did he walk inside.

Currently, he had successfully instigated a rotten relationship with the empress dowager and a few other noble families. And even if some of the families would find out it wasn’t Zhao Yunqin who killed their men, their losses would still be far too high; Zhao Yunqin wouldn’t be able to compensate them even if she wanted to.

On top of that, Zhao Yunqin had already fleed from the palace. With her departure, Mo Linyuan finally felt like a fish in water, much better than when he had been restricted in many things by that old woman before. The moment he entered, Mo Shiwen and Mo Die quickly surrounded him.

With fear and trepidation, they greeted, “Royal brother! You are already the emperor! Why didn’t you kill that old demoness Zhao Yunqin and help us take revenge?!”

“That’s right! Zhao Yunqin has imprisoned us for five years! How can you allow her to live?!”

Mo Linyuan’s entrance was met with two forces gripping him on the sides, Ye Mu was immediately pushed aside. A whiff of the former, various dishes they had eaten oozed from their bodies, making Mo Linyuan nauseous, suddenly feeling the urge to turn around and leave!

“The empress dowager had already been in power for so long—even when you had the throne, father. How could she be easily overthrown after these five years of ruling?”

Mo Linyuan also didn’t want to explain the current situation to them, “Anyway, don’t worry about this matter. If you meet her, just stay away.”

Mo Linyuan’s detached and straightforward personality and the aura as if he didn’t want to be touched, finally made the two of them let go of him in embarrassment.

Although the person who stood in front of them as still a youngster, his current bearing was not something an ordinary person could contend against…let alone the likes of them who had lost their former grace.

“But-” Mo Die immediately lowered her voice as Mo Linyuan’s gaze fell on her. “But brother, aren’t you the emperor…?”

“That’s right! Y-you are already the emperor! Could it be that you can’t eradicate a woman?!” The old emperor looked at him with a displeased face.

Mo Linyuan heard them speak these words in suspicion, a bit of reprimanding in them as if he was being berated for not taking revenge for them.
