Suppressed by Force (2)
Just like that, five days passed. Ye Mu finally woke up!
At this point, the black veins that previously webbed all over her body had faded, although she was still taller than before. Once she awoke, she discovered she was completely surrounded by imperial physicians, all of which had deeply concerned expressions. She hesitantly commented, realizing what had happened.
“So that’s how it is…” Ye Mu stated… Looks like Mo Linyuan will no longer send her to Tian Shou Temple. That’s to say, the next time she explodes, without the Silent Monk, wouldn’t the whole palace be in extreme danger?
Realizing this, she felt that she could no longer stay at the emperor’s palace anymore. She might as well leave the palace…
Mo Linyuan rushed over as soon as he heard Ye Mu awakening. Before Ye Mu could say anything, he used his finger to seal her lips.
“I know what you are going to say.”
Having not seen him for a few days, Mo Linyuan looked a lot thinner. His eyes also seemed colder and stricter than before.
“I won’t agree to your request. You are not going anywhere.”
Ye Mu pouted her lips, “Then, what are you going to do?”
Mo Linyuan replied, “I already contacted the Yue country. There is a famous master there who is already on his way here… though he may not be as good as the Silent Master. Regardless, you cannot leave. I will not let anything happen to you. I also will not let you do any irreparable damage.
Ye Mu’s eyes darkened, “… And how’s Tian Shou Temple doing?”
“Hmph.” When Mo Linyuan heard her bring this up, his complexion instantly became even more unsightly.
“Zhao Yiqin fled with the Silent Monk. As of today, the temple has been abandoned. But it’s not a big deal. They have harmed you, so I will make sure to avenge you and pay them back two-fold!”
Ye Mu felt aggrieved, “I didn’t think the Silent Monk would lie to me…”
After all, she had always believed in him… Evidently, she was well aware of his relationship with the Empress Dowager, yet she was still willing to put her life in his hands.
Mo Linyuan clasped her hands, trying to comfort her. “Wait until I find the Silent Master, then I will let you interrogate him personally.”
“Then… how do you plan on dealing with them?” Ye Mu couldn’t help but ask. Mo Linyuan is the type of person who usually didn’t personally get involved with matters… but when he did get involved, it would catch those off guard by surprise. She, nevertheless, still wanted to keep the Silent Master alive.
Mo Linyuan pursed his lips, “That, you don’t have to worry about.”
He forced Ye Mu to lie down. “You need to rest up. Once you wake up again, we will talk more thoroughly about it.”
Ye Mu nodded. The moment she closed her eyes, she fell back asleep. She had some serious internal injuries and needed to rest and recover. Mo Linyuan observed her sleeping face, distress clouding his eyes.

On the other hand, Zhao Yiqin was currently in the capital’s imperial household. She didn’t dare to return to the imperial palace for the time being, not knowing what the emperor would do to get rid of her, especially with Ye Mu there. Knowing that tens of thousands of people who ran into her during her madness didn’t survive, the Empress Dowager does not have anyone at her side that is able to obstruct her.
Right then, she was informed that the Silent Master was refusing to eat. She personally brought servants with her to enter his chamber.
“What’s this? You’re going on a hunger strike?” Zhao Yiqin asked in annoyance. She had been troubled recently. She was already having a difficult time. Now, even her son would not spare her from more trouble. She truly had bad luck these past few days.
The Silent Master was sitting on the couch. His eyes were closed. The buddha beads in his hands flowed while his lips were moving softly reciting Buddhist scriptures. He ignored her, as if Zhao Yiqin wasn’t there.
“Yun’er! I’m talking to you right now. Are you even listening to me?”
The Silent Monk still did not respond to Zhao Yiqin, making her even more furious!
