Our Binding Love: My Gentle Tyrant

etaliate or even the power to self-defend, she was disheartened.

So the further back she walked, Ye Mu had one more conviction.

This time, she was fighting not only for Mo Linyuan! She was also fighting for the many people hurt by the war!

If war could stop, these people could feel secure.
The world would look like how it was before.

With this thought, Ye Mu rode at full speed, and without looking back, dashed into Li Country.

But to her surprise, Li Country was full of peace and laughter, as if not affected by the war.

Ye Mu felt skeptical.

She had wanted to meet Li’s monarch, wanted him to take advantage of Yan Country’s powerlessness to seize them so Yan’s monarch would call the troops back.
This then could ease Mo Linyuan’s pressure.

But now she had a different idea.

The six countries are all covered by the flames of war, but Li Country is unscathed.
What does this mean?

This means that this Min Liang, he might not be from Yan Country, but rather Li Country!

Everyone would think of their own country.
If Min Liang was truly from Li Country, then if she wanted to instigate Li’s monarch, it was no longer possible.

And if she guessed correctly, this Min Liang was one of the most important people in Li Country!

With this guess in mind, Ye Mu didn’t immediately meet Li’s monarch but chose to scout out the condition in the area and in passing look for Mo’s people who were hiding here.

As Zhao Mingyu said, because Li Country was too far, the spies planted here were only a few, probably only ten-odd people.

Using her own knowledge, Ye Mu found their location, and then knocked on one of the households’ doors.

“Who are you?”

The one who opened the door was an old man around fifty years old.
Ye Mu looked at him.
She directly said, “I came to ask you, do you have a book oil for sale?”

That old man frowned.
“What oil is book oil?”

Ye Mu smiled.
“It’s something that can be spread in a book.
I think your house might have it.”

The old man looked Ye Mu up and down a few times, then said, “Come in, this old man sells oil, but don’t know if you can find what you’re looking for.”

Ye Mu went in.
The neighbors did not notice this exchange, but the old man still looked left and right before closing the door.

“Who exactly are you?” the old man asked after closing the door.

Ye Mu said, “I’m a messenger from Mo Country.
You should know the reason I came here.
You’ve stayed in Li Country for more than twenty years, are you still loyal to Mo Country?”

That old man didn’t expect to meet a fellow countryman here.
His eyes suddenly reddened.

He said, “I may have stayed in Li Country for over twenty years, and have married and have a child here, but in my heart, Mo Country is still my home!

“Your Excellency, whatever instructions you have, you can tell me.
Even if I, Old Liu, have to sacrifice my life, I will do it!”

Ye Mu was actually nervous when she came because the distance was so far and this person also had dwelled here for so many years.
She was very worried he was completely assimilated into Li’s people.

But he still thought about Mo Country, moreover with such a determined look.
Ye Mu was relieved, she finally had a helper!

She said with a sigh, “I won’t beat around the bush: the situation outside is very tense now! After arriving here, I saw that only this country is safe and sound, so I want to know certain information about Li Country.
In this war, what role does it play?”

Old Liu nodded.
He welcomed Ye Mu indoors.
At this moment, his wife and child were not present, but he still lowered his voice as he said to Ye Mu:

“This is about Min Liang, right?”
