Future Female Emperor (1)
Although Zhao Mingyu was mentally expecting the best outcome, her expression didn’t give anything away. She bowed respectfully in greeting before she stood up.
Mo Linyuan asked with a smile, “What could have happened to have Princess visit so unexpectedly?”
Zhao Mingyu deceitfully discussed with Mo Linyuan concerning her prospective marriage partner. She then asked with a smile,
“Now that Your Majesty has finally collected the whole City Boundary Map, the Country of Mo will prosper even more in the near future. I was not sure if I may have the honor of possibly taking a look at the legendary left behind by the empire?”
Mo Linyuan and Ye Mu looked at each other. Everything was going as Mo Linyuan predicted.
However, he wasn’t going to make it easy for the opponent. Otherwise, the enemy would become suspicious. Therefore, he laughingly said,
“Although the completed map has been repainted, there are still many parts that have not been confirmed yet. Once this monarch is sure that there are no issues with the treasure map, I will naturally let you take a look as an honorary contributor.”
That that would already be too late!
Zhao Mingyu originally thought that she would marry Mo Linyuan and gain his favor. That way she could easily get a chance to take a look at the City Boundary Map. Not only would she have been able to gain more insights, she would also be doted on by Mo Linyuan, before she finally made an escape having gained all that she needed.
Right now she was still in danger. It was difficult to leave at this moment, but it wasn’t a big problem. She must help Mo Linyuan help find the treasure, so that the Zhao Country could snatch it right in front of Mo Country’s eyes. If Mo Linyuan already caught her red handed, then it would be too late to achieve this.
Meanwhile, she gave a forced smile, “Although I am uncertain, may Your Majesty permit me to help you a little?”
“Oh?” Mo Linyuan looked at her suspiciously, “How does the princess plan to help?”
Zhao Mingyu replied, “I was once taught by a FengShui master the art of landscape reading. The imperial treasure must be concealed in certain FengShui landmarks. Rather than Your Majesty seeking blindly, I could help you take a look at it. I’ve heard that it could be located where the Dragon’s vein is; I may be able to point it out.”
Clearly, she had prepared this response ahead of time. Mo Linyuan wasn’t sure if the other person could actually read FengShui landscapes. Since he had already changed many parts of the map itself, if she could, she would be able to decipher that something was wrong with the map.
However the art FengShui is truly mysterious. What’s more, this princess was only 18 years old, she couldn’t possibly comprehend too much. This could simply be her excuse to take a look at it.
Evidently, Mo Linyuan feigned hesitation before he chuckled, “Alright. Then I must ask that Princess please use her expertise to point out a thing or two.”
After speaking, he finally brought out the City Boundary Map.
Zhao Mingyu watched him move as her heart beat wildly! It’s the City Boundary Map! Containing the hidden Imperial treasures that held all the powers of the Central Plains!
Before coming here, her father promised her that if she obtained the map of the Imperial treasures, then he would give the throne to rule over their empire even as a Princess once he left the throne!
Just the thought of herself becoming the first Female Emperor in the continent made her excited with anticipation.
Ye Mu was intently observing Zhao Mingyu’s movements. She seemed fairly calm and collected, but her hands hidden underneath the sleeves were trembling. Ye Mu had already guessed that Zhao Mingyu didn’t know anything about FengShui, rather she most likely had phenomenal memory instead.
Zhao Mingyu slowly unfolded the rolled up scroll. She noticed the ink was still very new. It would seem she definitely came at the right time. This painting hasn’t even been preserved yet.
Her eyes filled with greed, but she worked to suppress it. As she analyzed it, she then frowned,
“Your Majesty, could this map… be a counterfeit?”
