Chapter 181
“No, it can’t be?” Ye Mu immediately understood the meaning behind Mo Linyuan’s words, “Could it be that Mo Die wants to be the female emperor?”
Mo Linyuan’s face dimmed instantly.
If his guess was correct, then the marriage proposal from the Wen Family was just a disguise. They were deliberately diverting his focus so that he will let his guard down around Mo Die. That way, he will personally restore her status as a princess. After all, what can a mere princess do?
“If this is true, then we cannot believe a single word the Wen Family said,” Ye Mu said angrily. No wonder Mo Die had been acting so obediently and calm these past few years. She had a plan up her sleeve all along! Had she not made this trip to the Empress Dowager’s place, then Mo Linyuan would’ve restored Mo Die’s status based on their deceased mother, and the pair of jade butterfly Mo Die showed him. Once that happens, Mo Die will definitely jump out in the future and stab him in the back.
“What should we do now?” When Ye Mu saw how angry Mo Linyuan appeared, she couldn’t help but become a little worried, “Don’t be impulsive. She is still your biological sister.”
Mo Linyuan wouldn’t just chop their head off because of his anger, right?
Since Mo Die was in on this plan, then Mo Shiwen certainly was too. One was his father and the other was his younger sister. They are still his relatives. Mo Linyuan really wanted to know the reason why they’re calculating against him!
Had he not rescued them from the dungeon, they would have starved to death! Instead of repaying this debt, they’re biting the hands that are feeding them! What for?
“I want to ask him.” Mo Linyuan stood up. There was a murderous aura around him, and his sharp phoenix eyes were full of killing intent!
“I treated them fairly, why are they doing this to me?!”
“Eh, wait a moment!” Ye Mu quickly grabbed him, “They won’t admit to anything if you confront them like this! Leave this matter to me!”
A light bulb lit up in Ye Mu’s mind, “I have a plan!”
Although Ye Mu said that she had a plan, she was partially only saying that to calm Mo Linyuan. After all, they were still in the dark regarding their enemy’s plan. If Mo Linyuan did something out of anger, it would give reason to those eyeing his throne to attack him.
Ye Mu carefully pondered over Mo Die’s mentality.
In her opinion, Mo Die was a woman who would give something she didn’t need to receive something she needed. She may have ambitions, but her ambitions aren’t big enough for her to desire to become the emperor. The reason she probably agreed to it was that she had no choice.
If Mo Die had a choice, she probably will continue to pretend she was invisible next to Mo Linyuan. After all, she already achieved some results by pretending to be invisible. Mo Linyuan had almost agreed to restore her princess status before. At this time, she wouldn’t collude with other people unless she had no choice.
For example, she might’ve been blackmailed by the Shi Family or by the Empress Dowager with something she did. And if this matter were to be found out by Mo Linyuan, he would definitely not forgive her.
The same probably holds true for Mo Shiwen too. If he was not threatened by someone, then it was impossible for him to take the initiative to stir up trouble based on how much he feared the Empress Dowager. Unless he believed that Mo Linyuan would not protect him after he found out the truth behind the Empress’s death. As a result, he had no choice but to collude with the Shi Family.
Somehow, Ye Mu felt that what she had inferred was pretty close to the truth. Even though Ye Mu was a bystander in all of this, based on all the clues, she could only conclude that the cause of death of the late Empress bound the Empress Dowager, the Shi Family, and everyone else together.
The more Ye Mu thought about it, the more she was certain she was correct. She could not think of anything else that would make Mo Shiwen and Mo Die feel that Mo Linyuan would kill them if he found out.
