Chapter 409: 410

Awake

Ye Mu just woke up and felt out of her depth. She looked at her own bony fingers and was shocked herself.

She wanted to say something, but no voice came out. Luckily, someone came in at this moment. That palace maid was supposed to change her shift as usual, but because of her upset stomach today she came a little late.

But actually, late or not did not matter because the imperial physician came to check every day and then would shake his head. A guoshi* in Mo Country also said, the empress was short of one soul out of three, he feared she did not have long.

*t/n: teacher of the state, a title given by the emperor to great monks

Though the medicine fed to her every day was helpful, it would make one thin down each day. Now, she was all skin and bones.

But surprisingly, when the palace maid just came in the doors, she saw Ye Mu had woken up.

Before she got back to her senses, Ye Mu extended her hand to her. She screamed. Throwing aside the basin in her hands, she ran outside.

Ye Mu felt helpless. She was really hungry and thirsty, she just wanted her to get her some food, she didn’t have to run as if she’d seen a ghost, did she?

Of course, she knew her physique right now looked terrifying, or else the other person wouldn’t react like that. She hoped they would come back soon, or she might die from hunger when she had struggled so much to come back to life.

Sure enough, soon, a lot of footsteps bustled outside. A large group of people surged inside. The head was that palace maid.

Among them, an imperial physician cautiously asked, “Empress, are you really awake?”

It was another female doctor that was smarter; she handed Ye Mu a ginseng soup. Only after Ye Mu drank a mouthful did she truly feel alive.

But her stomach had become so small. After downing just a small bowl of soup, she felt too full.

Through this sluggish effort, everyone knew she was truly awake. This was great news!

Not long after, Prime Minister Wen hurried over. On the way, he couldn’t believe his ears. A person who clearly was almost dead had woken up, could it be like what that guoshi said? The three souls returned, so she woke up?

Seeing the alive Ye Mu, he finally let out a sigh of relief. He quickly walked over and said, “Empress, where do you feel unwell?”

Ye Mu shook her head. She couldn’t really talk now, but the imperial physician had just given her a check-up and said she was just in extremely poor health right now. She needed to eat, but there were no other problems.

After Prime Minister Wen asked, he felt he had been brusque. Ye Mu had been unconscious for so long and suddenly woke up, she must need time to adapt.

He hurriedly asked people to carefully arrange and take care of her, and gleefully said to her, “His Majesty is fighting outside right now, if he knows that you’re awake, he’ll definitely come back immediately! No good, I have to send him a letter now!”

But Ye Mu unexpectedly shook her head repeatedly, stopping him.

Prime Minister Wen didn’t understand, but he patiently listened to Ye Mu as she said in a hoarse voice, “I don’t want him to see me like this.”

Prime Minister Wen knew, Ye Mu, this was women’s thought of wishing to appear beautiful, hoping to look beautiful in front of their sweetheart, but what time was it now? His Majesty thought about her day and night, hoping for her to wake up. Going to war was also to complete his mission and let her three souls return soon.

He quickly said, “Empress, don’t worry, His Majesty will never mind about these. Besides, His Majesty has been worried about your health for so long. How can we hide such great news from him?”

Ye Mu still shook her head. The palace maid had filled her in on what had been happening. She knew Mo Linyuan was fighting and was currently in a crucial situation. She did not want to disturb him.

Of course, there was one more thing: she looked too hideous right now. She didn’t want to face Mo Linyuan like this when she had just struggled coming back.

Seeing Ye Mu persistent, Prime Minister Wen was rather anxious. He heard Ye Mu hoarsely say, “He has invested so much energy in me, I also hope I can give him a pleasant surprise when I see him.”

Seeing Prime Minister Wen still reluctant, Ye Mu smiled. She said, “You don’t mind too much about these, too. This is between us husband and wife, but I’d still like to ask for your help. Stop this matter from reaching his ears, or there will be no meaning to this surprise.”

In such a weak condition, Ye Mu still asked for such a request. Prime Minister Wen had no choice and could only agree. He said:

“Understood, I can promise you. However, if His Majesty raises the question someday, you must put in a good word for me!” He forced a smile. “Or I will not have the courage to help you.”

Ye Mu quickly nodded. “For sure.”

Thus Prime Minister Wen hid the news of Ye Mu regaining consciousness.

Prime Minister Wen would tell Ye Mu about Mo Linyuan’s matter every day, for example until which place had Mo Linyuan fought? What new plans did he have, and what was he plotting.

Ye Mu knew nothing remained of the seven countries now. Only Mo Country, Yue Country, and Yuan Country were left. Truly astounding!

She reckoned this war needed at least two months before it was over, and two months was enough for her to slowly recover.

Of course, she needed to be a little quicker because if she could, she hoped she could look for Mo Linyuan before he came back.

At this moment, Mo Linyuan listened to the report of the happenings in the imperial palace. He felt a bit glad, releasing a long sigh.

Guoshi had said, maybe after he accomplished his fate, Ye Mu’s three souls would return, so he went out.

But after going out, he didn’t really dare to hear the news from the imperial palace, scared someday he would hear Ye Mu had died from being weak.

But he had to listen because, to him, it was important.

But right now, he and Ye Xiaolang heard that although Ye Mu was still in a deep sleep, her health was a little better than before. They were happy.

Could unifying the seven countries really be related to her waking up? the two men thought, unsure.

Ye Xiaolang couldn’t help saying, “Your Majesty, what if you go back first? I’ll deal with the matter here.”

Mo Linyuan also wanted to go back, but in the end, he shook his head.

“Guoshi said, unification of the world must be done by my own strength. With this kind of situation now, I don’t dare to make a single mistake.”

Luckily, the situation was favorable to them right now. It was as though pacifying the countries had succeeded. There was only the last step left.

Hope after the last one was done, Heaven will see his good faith.

On the other side, Ye Mu exercised and nourished herself. Her dry and thin body slowly became rosy.

Her face also gradually filled out, but it was still not enough.

She looked better than her bony look before, but to become fair and delicate, she still needed to work hard.
