Chapter 97 - Brokenhearted (2)



Chapter 97 – Brokenhearted (2)

It was Mo Linyuan who said from the side, “Didn’t His Majesty want this servant to stay at the palace to help him recuperate? This servant has agreed…these two girls are not too shabby. This servant is asking His Majesty to make them his assistants. Would His Majesty acquiesce?”

When the emperor heard this, he hesitated, but the young man in front of him was the only one who had seen at a glance the what medicine he had taken. Furthermore, as long as these two girls didn’t leave the palace, there was nothing to be afraid of.

In the end, he finally agreed.

When the emperor finally left, he gave Mo Linyuan and Ye Li a chance to talk privately. All the surrounding guards retreated, and the other girl was taken away to be treated. For now, the three of them were the only ones left in the imperial garden.

Ye Mu’s entire body turned lax as she sat on a stone stool to the side, inspecting her injuries. It would be a lie to say that she wasn’t disappointed in Ye Li. Although she wasn’t a hundred percent loyal, she had been helping him the entire time.

Mo Linyuan also walked over and held her limp hand, “…Dislocated?”

Ye Mu nodded.

A trace of coldness flashed through Mo Linyuan’s eyes. He carefully placed her hand to the side and said, “Don’t touch or move it. I’ll get someone to bandage it up for you later.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Mu somewhat tiredly sagged against Mo Linyuan’s chest.

When Ye Li saw that Ye Mu had ignored him, he felt helpless for the first time in his life. He remained silent for a long time with a rigid face before sighing.

“Mu’er…I’m sorry, Father misunderstood you!”

Ye Mu raised her brows slightly. She wasn’t expecting for Ye Li to apologize, “Misunderstanding? What do you mean a misunderstanding?” and she asked with a undecipherable tone.

Ye Li continued, “After you told me that the Emperor was in critical condition, I waited for the right opportunity to make my move. But after I noticed that the Emperor was in good health, I thought that all of this was a trap meant for me, and that you were the opponent’s chess piece. In my rage…”

“Thus, in his rage, he decided to send his own daughter to an animal to be ruined?”

Ye Mu’s words made Ye Li speechless.

It was better if he didn’t apologize, since Ye Mu didn’t want to speak a word to him. However, the moment he apologized, Ye Mu’s felt triggered and she spouted off her grievances!

She sneered, “You’re still haven’t learned! You saw that the situation wasn’t right, but you didn’t ask me, nor did you have it investigated—you were only quick to have me killed directly!”

Her voice took a stronger tone, “I’ve always respected you. Even if I lied to you about what happened to Aji of his tongue being cut off, at the very least, I still gave you the treasure! But you? You only know how to doubt and use me, use us—all for your benefit! Do you know that I was almost…”

Initially, Ye Mu’s complaints were only half-truths. However, thinking about how so many guards had pounced on her while she was only six years old and was constantly under the control of the enemy, she felt the protests in her heart grow more forceful.

In the end, her round cat eyes turned red and she fiercely glared at Ye Li before closing her eyes and remaining silent.

“Mu’er…” Ye Li also knew that this time, he had truly hurt her heart. Originally, he would never have cared about his child’s sadness, but this time, an intense feeling of guilt caused his heart to ache, and after a long while he sighed again.

“Forget it. Stay in the palace during this period of chaos. Calm down and don’t be impatient, I will definitely get you out. And… I won’t pursue the matter of you lying to me over a little slave.”

Finally, he unexpectedly said, “The forbidden map of the Imperial army in his hands—I… I don’t want it anymore! ”

Ye Li had really made up his mind when he said the last sentence!

In order to obtain the map of the Imperial army, he had done everything he could, but once Ye Mu had said that he only knew haow to use her for his own benefit, it made him reconsider all his actions.

He suddenly realized that he didn’t want to be held in a negative light inside his child’s heart.
