Chapter 389: 390

Caught

Ye Mu nodded. Now Min Liang was her core problem. She came here to know more about this person and the agreement between him and Li’s monarch.

Old Liu said, “Well, the only relationship between Min Liang and Li Country should be, his master is from Li Country, and he himself is from Yan Country. This is for certain.”

Old Liu’s words overthrew Ye Mu’s previous guess. Did she guess wrong, Min Liang really had nothing to do with Li Country?

Old Liu said, “Think about it, if it’s not because he’s from Yan Country and has been Yan’s crown prince’s study companion since a child, how can Yan Country trust him so much and send out their remaining troops?”

Ye Mu furrowed her brows. “Agreed, but something’s not right.”

Old Liu didn’t understand. “What’s not right?”

Ye Mu said, “Yan Country’s behavior.”

She spoke quickly, “Li Country currently preserves the most strength among the six countries! Yan Country is powerless now, so it’s the best opportunity for Li Country. It’s such a risky situation, and Yan Country doesn’t mind?”

Old Liu said, “So this is what you meant. It’s like this, for Yan Country to trust Li Country to keep their promise during the period of the agreement, Li’s monarch sent the crown prince to Yan Country as a hostage.”

If it was like this, it made sense. The ancients often focused on honor, and a country’s crown prince was equal to a country’s honor. No wonder Yan Country could trust Li Country.

This kind of plan is indeed astounding.

Ye Mu stroked her chin as she pondered. “That’s not right. Why do I feel like there is something more to this?”

At this moment, movements came from outside. Old Liu turned pale. “Not good, my wife has come back!”

Ye Mu definitely didn’t want to cause any misunderstanding. She immediately prepared to leave from the windows. Before she left, she told Old Liu, “Wait until I confirm some things, I’ll come back to look for you.”

Old Liu quickly said, “Don’t worry, even if I had to go through fire and water, I, Old Liu, will not run away!”

Ye Mu nodded before jumping out from the windows. At this moment, she was thirst and hungry, so she randomly went to find a small store to satiate her hunger.

After ordering a few dishes, Ye Mu kept thinking about the problem.

Li Country sent the crown prince as a hostage to Yan Country and still had 50,000 troops, and seeing Li Country’s sincerity, Yan Country sent out their last troops?

What if after Yan Country and Zhao Country defeated Mo Country, Li Country seized Yan Country before they could respond?

After all, it was only a crown prince. From the view of a modern person like her, one person was incomparable to one country.

But thinking of how the ancients valued supernatural beings and honor, she also felt it was unlikely.

Right now, she firstly didn’t have any personnel by her side; second, she couldn’t find any solution. It was at this upsetting moment that a group of men nearby talked loudly.

The six countries were currently busy fighting outside. Only Li’s people could be so carefree. This particular point alone was enough to see that Li Country was given special treatment in Min Liang’s plan.

He gave Li Country special treatment and emptied Yan Country. If there was no conspiracy in this, Ye Mu couldn’t believe it even if she died!

At this moment, after one of the men drank, she heard him say:

“The empress looks so beautiful, Our Majesty is also good-looking, but the crown prince’s looks is disappointing. A few days ago when the crown prince and the 50,000 troops rushed to the battlefield, I went over to have a look. The crown prince is short and fat, and his face is flat. I really don’t know how such a beautiful empress could give birth to a child like that!”

The person next to him quickly stopped him. “Just a few mouthfuls and you’re off your head? You can even talk about the imperial family? Besides, the crown prince left to become a hostage so that the five countries can win this war! To have such a brave crown prince is a blessing to Li Country!”

Everyone listened and nodded repeatedly, no longer commenting on the crown prince’s looks.

But Ye Mu’s eyes gleamed.

“So he looks ugly?”

She reckoned she had understood something.

On the other side, as soon as Old Liu’s wife came in, she asked, “Bolting the door in this broad daylight? Are you neglecting work?”

Old Liu was nervous. “No, I just want to take a nap for a while. Don’t disturb me, I’m going to sleep now.”

With that said, Old Liu went upstairs.

Old Liu’s wife was a person whose features were ordinary but very gentle. Seeing Old Liu go upstairs, she skeptically walked over to the windows and opened it. On the grass outside, there were a few subtle footprints.

Light gleamed in her eyes. Such light footprints couldn’t be a man’s. Was it a girl who came?

She looked up the stair once again, then turned around and went out. Not long after, a white pigeon flew up the sky.

After Ye Mu ate, she reckoned she had understood the situation. Min Liang was Yan’s crown prince’s study companion, and Li’s crown prince was held hostage in Yan Country.

She had a very risky thought, but wasn’t there a saying? Eliminate all impossibilities, and the remaining possibilities, no matter how fantastical it was, were possible.

If this crown prince from Li Country was fake and Min Liang was actually Li’s crown prince, wouldn’t all of this make sense?

Only if Min Liang was from Li Country would he be partial to Li Country, and only if the crown prince was fake, when Li Country wanted to go to war and Min Liang came back to his position, would be the most spectacular ending!

By that logic, coming here was indeed a mistake.

This was Min Liang’s territory!

With this thought, Ye Mu carefully looked around. At this moment, she was dressed up as a boy. She wasn’t conspicuous, but she still had to be careful.

For now, there were only two ways. One, get evidence. Look for Yan’s monarch. This way, he could stop his foolish behavior.

But this would take too long and couldn’t dissolve Mo Linyuan’s desperate situation.

So the only thing she could do was…

The next few days, Ye Mu stayed silent. On the other side, Min Liang received a letter from a subordinate.

“Oh? A woman?” His handsome face slowly turned happy, revealing a mysterious smile. For some reason, after seeing the two words “a woman”, he thought of that wedding day, that sharp woman.

She opened the curtains of the moving palanquin looking outside. When he saw her, he thought she was indeed a pure woman.

Who would have thought Mo Linyuan’s and his taste were similar? But now that he thought of those clear eyes looking outside, and associating them with the person next to her, he had a brazen thought.

Could it be that while he was in Mo Country to target Ye Mu, Ye Mu had run off to his home?

Interesting! In that case, it’ll be so easy to catch her!
