The Reason Why She Must Get Married (2)

Right then, he appeared to have changed into a white outfit and was scrutinizing her intently. And yet, he didn’t kick her out immediately.

She didn’t think she would really see the emperor inside. Zhao Mingyu’s heart increased its tempo. Quickly, she approached and greeted him,

“Greetings to Your Majesty. Yes, the adopted daughter of the Empress Dowager has escorted me here. It is because I had something important to discuss with you.”

Mo Linyuan recalled how the guards from before reported to him that Ye Mu had gone to see Zhao Mingyu. He chuckled lightly. This little girl was a lot more rash than he had thought. Could she make it any more obvious what she was trying to do?

Regardless, it didn’t bother him because it proved that he held a place in her heart.

Realizing this, Mo Linyuan simply smiled and asked good naturedly,

“And what business do you have with me?”

Seeing how well mannered Mo Linyuan was, Zhao Mingyu pursed her lips before she unexpectedly took her headpiece off and let her ink-like hair spiral down. In a split second, she exposed herself to Mo Linyuan and exclaimed,

“Please forgive me Your Majesty, but I am not a Minister. I am the princess that was supposed to be engaged to you… Zhao Mingyu.”

Mo Linyuan raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn’t have any intention of exposing her, but now this development made it even more interesting.

“And what exactly does this princess want to say to this sovereign?”

With this question, Zhao Mingyu abruptly knelt down in a blink!

Ye Mu, who was peeping from the rooftop, was caught by surprise by this sudden action! She was uncertain, what exactly did this princess want? Will Mo Linyuan accept her proposal?

Zhao Minyu exclaimed, “Your Majesty, I won’t beat around the bush!”

Her eyes held hints of redness, “I am the eldest daughter of the Zhao Imperial family. I have always been called the favored princess. My mother, the imperial concubine, only had me as a daughter. As a result, the burden of all her hopes and dreams are solely mine to carry. Therefore, in Zhao Country I was raised to be very strong willed and aggressive! That way no one will bully me!

Her words matched with what Mo Linyuan found in his investigations. It was reported that this princess received quite a bit of favoritism as well as having a strong willed personality.

He signaled with his finger, “Go on.”

Zhao Mingyu saw how calm and collected Mo Linyua looked. She was thrown off by this, but continued speaking,

“Moreover, the only ones that were suitable for this distant arranged marriage was me and the current daughter of the Empress. She is also my little sister. Originally, it was supposed to be my sister who was to be married, but the Empress refused. As a result, she used my mother to convince me to take on this marriage instead. In addition, she said that as long as I promised to marry in her daughter’s place, my mother would be able to live a fulfilling life for her remaining time with someone there to take care of her. However, If I refused, she said that even if she couldn’t mess with me, she would make my mother, a simple concubine in the harem, suffer something even worse than death itself!”

Her eyes were swollen as she spoke anxiously.

“That’s why I came. Before arriving, my father, the emperor, told me that this marriage must be accomplished! Because the Mo Country was developing so quickly, my father wanted to form a good relationship with your country. That is why I came with the intention of never going back!”

She raised her eyes and locked them with Mo Linyuan’s, “I know that Your Majesty only has Miss Ye Mu in your heart. But I will not ask for much. I just simply ask that Your Majesty accepts to receive me. You can even keep me at a distance. As long as the marriage between the two countries is accomplished… as long as I can stay here… that is all I ask. I hope Your Majesty can agree to this request!”
