Chapter 88 – No Marriage (1)
The Second Prince seemed somewhat embarrassed as he smiled.
“That person is…it is the daughter of the general’s residence, Young lady Ye Mu.”
The empress followed the Second Prince’s hand and looked at Ye Mu, her expression turning a little odd. If it was any other girl, she might have said, ‘Let’s get on with this decision then!’ After all, this Second Prince did not have any ambitions even if he had his own soldiers!
But this girl…
She was stunned for a moment, then asked, pretending to eb ignorant of Ye Mu’s identity, “Where is Young lady Ye?”
Only then did Ye Mu come back to her senses and walked forward to pay her respects. “Empress, this subject is none other than the concubine–born daughter of the Ye family, Ye Mu.”
She stressed the word ‘concubine-born’ heavily. Although the Second Prince also had a handsome appearance, he was already twenty-five years old!

Are they asking for him to be her new father?!
Moreover, she had also heard that when he was outside the border, he would always delay being married…and now, he should be at the age where he’s in a rush to get married and have children. Why should a mere kid like her she be chosen?
Could it be…did Yan Xu had said something to him? But no matter the case was, she had no intention of marrying here!
The empress sized her up from top to bottom with a smile. “You really are a pretty child. No wonder my son… but seeing that young lady Ye is still young. And this empress is unaware if you’re willing to marry into the imperial family?”
Was this a chance given by the heavens to reject him?!
Since the empress was easy to talk to, Ye Mu didn’t dare refuse. She was just a concubine-born daughter after all. Normally, the empress wouldn’t ask such a question and immediately refuse.
And to marry the Second Prince?
Ye Mu glanced at the Second Prince. He was looking at her with a smile, as if he was confident that she wouldn’t reject him. Ye Mu thought for a moment before shaking her head.
“Your servant…doesn’t want to marry!”
What?!
Many of the women present cried out in alarm. After all, the Second Prince was still a prince; he had his own militia and he held real power. For a concubine-born daughter this was a good marriage, yet this girl refused to marry him?
Indeed, she is too young and ignorant of everything! They all thought.
Yan Xu who was hiding in the dark saw that Ye Mu refused and angrily punched the tree in front of him!
“Seriously…what a silly girl!” He was trying to save her!
Even if Ye Mu had refused, he couldn’t just let her off the hook. But what could he do? For some reason, a young man’s face suddenly appeared in his mind. If he knew that Ye Mu was in such a predicament, Yan Xu was sure he would be able to think of something unorthodox.
With this thought in mind, he turned around and headed away from the direction of the imperial palace.
When the empress heard Ye Mu’s rejection, she seemed to be stunned for a moment before a hint of a smile appeared on her lips. “Since young lady Ye doesn’t agree, then…”
“Imperial mother!” When the Second Prince saw that Ye Mu had refused, he suddenly became anxious, “But this son likes Young lady Ye. I hope mother will reconsider!”
The empress frowned, feeling troubled. Before she could speak, a male voice rang out.
“Nonsense! Since she doesn’t want to marry, do you still want to force her to marry? Is my son so afraid that he won’t be able to take an imperial concubine?”
Hearing this voice, the empress took the lead and made everyone kneel.
The empress respectfully greeted, “Your consort welcomes His Majesty! His Majesty lives a hundred lifetimes!”
“His Majesty lives a hundred lifetimes!” The other people in the banquet followed suit.
Ye Mu was shocked and hurriedly paid her respects with the crowd. She didn’t think that the Emperor would really come.
Wasn’t he seriously ill? However, when she saluted, she noticed with her sharp eyes that the Emperor seemed to be really spirited, as if he’d recovered from a sickness. Beside him was an extremely flirtatious girl, and it was needless to say, that person was ought to be the daughter of the Prime Minister…Imperial Concubine Rou.
Ye Mu was speechless. Something was truly brewing at coming straight at her!
