Married
Ye Mu hurriedly reassured him, “I know, I know. But there are times when the truth is moving and only the truth makes my teeth sour! Xiao Mo-Mo, you know how to flirt more than I do, I should learn from you!”
Mo Linyuan lightly smiled. “Alright, I’ll give you a lifetime of learning, and then let you use them on me.”
The two people were simply like honey mixed with oil*. Very soon, three months passed.
*honey mixed with oil (idiom) – deeply attached to each other
A lot of things happened in these three months. A small-scale war broke out between Yan Country and Zhao Country, and news came out that the six countries seemed to want to ally with each other to become enemies with Mo Country.
However, there was no evidence to prove this. Mo Linyuan sent someone to investigate, but at the same time, he felt confident. Even if the six countries really had formed an alliance, he was not afraid. Moreover, the six countries forming an alliance was impossible since Yue Country had friendly ties with Mo Country. As for Zhao Country, he assessed it may be possible for Zhao Mingyu to help him.
So while dealing with the matters of Zhao Country and Yue Country, Mo Linyuan gave Ye Mu a lively coming-of-age ceremony, congratulating her for becoming an adult.
After the ceremony, there was the highly-anticipated* wedding; but prior to this, Mo Linyuan received urgent messages from Zhao Country and Yue Country.
*attention focused by millions of people
It was the replies from two countries, but both brought bad news: there was someone who wanted to unite the six countries to go against Mo Country.
Yue Country had directly refused. Ye Mu was from Yue Country and was virtuous to the country. As long as Qi Yan still reigned, Yue Country would still be safe.
Zhao Country was weaker. After Zhao Mingyu went back, the plight was much more difficult than before, and Zhao Mingyu said, her father emperor was extremely interested in this matter, and also said, when Zhao Country and Yan Country fought before, it was all spectated by Mo Country.
When Mo Linyuan saw, his expression was rather cold.
He just obtained the treasures and became the most prosperous country among the seven countries. His territory was also the most vast, and his rights were also the most centralized. He didn’t expand, yet these people wanted to ally and hunt him down?
But he didn’t know from whom this all came from, and which country initiated this suggestion.
Mo Linyuan pondered, and sent his own people in Zhao Country to continue helping Zhao Mingyu. If the need arose, he could also dispatch troops to help her seize the throne. He just needed to see whether Zhao Mingyu dared to or not.
And at the moment, these matters could be put aside first. He would think about it after the wedding.
Ye Mu didn’t know the situation had become so tense because of the treasure’s case, moreover gradually deviating from the original track. She was constrained in the room, studying the necessary procedures on that day.
These procedures were for the sake of auspiciousness, and it was her first time to get married, so Ye Mu studied very earnestly.
Finally, on a day when the sun rode high in the sky, Ye Mu got married!
Long troops of the bride’s escorts came out from Mo Country’s imperial palace. After circling around the city, they needed to go back to the imperial palace. The common people in the whole city made a commotion that day because they had never seen such a high-standard wedding before.
There were many examples that violated the rules, but no one dared to say any fault.
小皇后就是要天上的星星，陛下也要给她摘下来，何况只是物件上的违制？
The little empress wanted the stars in the sky, His Majesty also wanted to pluck them off for her, what was a mere violation on an object?
Ye Mu was extremely excited. During this time, she secretly looked out through the curtains. Everyone was still in a trance, she married just like that? She was only fifteen and wanted to become someone’s wife right away?
This thought was truly inconceivable.
As she thought of the time when she left, Mo Linyuan pulling her hand, the words he spoke next to her ears made her cheeks flush. She didn’t dare to think about it again.
At this moment, she fleetingly saw an unusual figure.
Ye Mu couldn’t grasp what she felt, and quickly drew the curtains to look outside, only to hear the common people’s sudden cheers. Seeing Ye Mu lifting the curtains, the palace servants also didn’t dare to stop her. But the person Ye Mu just saw had already disappeared.
The reason why she was especially attentive was not because that person’s figure was especially outstanding, but because the person’s half smile made her sense a dangerous feeling.
But very soon, Ye Mu threw out that dangerous feeling. Was she being overly suspicious? It was but only one man.
It then went smoothly all the way. Ye Mu didn’t make any mistake as she arrived at the entrance of the palace, and Mo Linyuan was already waiting there.
He wore a red dress. That bright red accentuated his bright, handsome and cheerful face, just like a deity.
Ye Mu’s heart stirred. She didn’t expect she would actually get married, and especially married to a person of the ancients. That person had the most handsome face, was tall and straight, and was chivalrous.
He looked gentle, yet he carried a very powerful aura. It was obviously the majestic bearing of being in a high rank for a long time, every move seized a person’s heartstring.
Such an excellent man who was loved by a myriad of people was her future husband?
Suddenly, Ye Mu doubted herself, but also felt an incomparable joy.
He could be a wise and mighty emperor, but she definitely couldn’t be a good empress. His imperial harem only consisted of herself, there was nothing wrong with her taking care of herself.
The moment the sedan chair stopped, Mo Linyuan was already beside her, pushing aside the curtains. Under the sunlight, Ye Mu only saw his eyes that faintly shone, as well as his smile that couldn’t be ignored.
He extended a hand toward her. The people around them immediately knelt down. The imperial guards that couldn’t be seen at the back lowered their heads.
Behind the lofty and broad palace walls and doors, Ye Mu passed her hand to Mo Linyuan. From today onward, she would be the empress!
Mo Linyuan lightly smiled, leading her through the long corridor with his internal energy, guiding her step by step to the terrace, accepting the deep respect from more people.
The people kneeling down around them, from the imperial guards to the palace maids, gradually became ministers. And on the terrace, the master of ceremonies eunuch had long been ready.
“Welcome, Your Majesty—Welcome, Empress—”
The long voice passed through the numerous heavy palace doors one by one, passing through to the outside.
And the ministers said in unison, “Welcome, Your Majesty. Welcome, Empress—”
Those uniform voices were earth-shattering, causing people to be overwhelmed. Maybe people sought this loftiness because everyone would be trampled under your feet.
Ye Mu was supported by Mo Linyuan, step by step walking toward the high platform. Mo Linyuan’s internal energy flowed heavily at this moment, he was afraid Ye Mu didn’t have enough strength, and kept transferring internal energy to her. But Ye Mu also wasn’t a woman who couldn’t truss a chicken after losing her internal energy. She wore a smile, and finished walking with him.
In the end, the two stood on the high platform. The moment they turned around, the hundreds of officials and guards below uniformly kowtowed, and in a loud voice sang:
“We wish the emperor and empress a lifetime of peace, eternal unity, endless fortune and blessings for the nation!!”
And after they finished knocking their heads on the ground, Prime Minister Wen on the side lifted and passed over the imperial seal.
Mo Linyuan immediately held that imperial seal, handing it over to Ye Mu’s hand.
Ye Mu’s palm sank. She raised her head to look, and saw Mo Linyuan’s brilliant smile.
It was as if he smiled this happily for the first time, his face lit up with such delight!
“From now on, you are my only wife, and I will love you forever.”
