Our Binding Love: My Gentle Tyrant
chapter-180

However, Ye Mu’s words reminded her that Mo Die was only a puppet emperor once the plan succeeded. It may seem like she received the same amount of benefits as the Shi Family on the surface, but in fact, it was not true. Since Mo Die was the emperor, why can’t they just kill her (the Empress Dowager) off and allowed the Shi Family to become the regent? Mo Die was not as smart or scheming as Mo Linyuan, so she could be easily controlled!

The most important matter was that the young girl had been locked up by her for five years. Once she became the female emperor in the future, will she let her go after what she had done to her?

She had always hated Mo Linyuan’s existence, but she almost forgot that it would not be easy to get along with Mo Die either. If Mo Die collides with the Shi Family, perhaps she, Zhao Yunqin will be the next person to be locked up in a dungeon.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yunqin could no longer sit still. She glanced around and saw Ye Mu looking at her with a smile.

Ye Mu’s eyes seemed to be able to penetrate her thoughts, which made Zhao Yunqin terrified of her.

“Have you thought about it clearly?” Ye Mu took in Zhao Yunqin’s change in attitude and suddenly realized what she was thinking. “Think about it, how much do you think Mo Die hates you? Are you sure you want to see the Shi Family become successful? If you are sure, then His Majesty will soon send out a decree that will restore Mo Die’s identity.”

“Wait, wait a moment!” Zhao Yunqin rubbed the space between her brows. She had a headache, “Die’er had been “dead” for so many years. I fear it will be inappropriate for the emperor to suddenly restore her identity.”

“Oh?” Ye Mu took a step forward, “Why? What kind of excuse should I give the emperor for your refusal to restore her identity? You have to give me a reason, otherwise, I can’t explain it to His Majesty.”

Zhao Yunqin discovered that Ye Mu was quite difficult to deal with, “That’s not something you can ask about! Get out!”

Even though she acted so fierce towards Ye Mu, Ye Mu didn’t react at all. She merely smiled and asked, “Empress Dowager, His Majesty suspected that his mother’s death had something to do with the Wen Family. Hence, he sent me to secretly get some evidence from you. We can stop talking about Mo Die. However, you should answer my question. Because soon, one of the young masters of the Wen Family might marry into the royal family.”

Zhao Yunqin asked fretfully, “Will you even believe me if I tell you the truth?”

Ye Mu said, “If I don’t believe you, then I wouldn’t have come here to ask you.”

Zhao Yunqin pondered for a moment before she said, “At that time, the three big families have intervened in the matter.” Otherwise, how could she win so easily?

“I understood.” Ye Mu didn’t know whether Zhao Yunqin was lying or Wen Ze was lying. But she now had an idea what to do about Mo Die’s matter.

When she returned, Mo Linyuan had just ended court. A smile appeared on his face when he saw Ye Mu. He walked over to her and pinched her nose intimately.

“How was it? Did you manage to coax the answers out of the Empress Dowager?”

Ye Mu smiled triumphantly, “I did! It was all thanks to my silver tongue. I found out that the Empress Dowager and the Shi Family had made a deal. Although I do not know the exact details of their deal, I’m certain that we cannot give her the princess identity back!”

After she finished speaking, she relayed the entire conversation between her and the Empress Dowager to Mo Linyuan. Suddenly, an idea appeared in Mo Linyuan’s mind.

“After listening to you, I don’t think it mattered what the identity of a princess can do. Perhaps it’s more important to them whether or not I admit that she’s from the royal bloodline.”
