Chapter 937
Gui Baili said: “Understood. Ye Tianfan doesn’t dare to start a war. If he dares to order an attack on the imperial capital, the twelve vassal states will definitely come to suppress it in this name, unless he has enough military might to oppose the twelve vassal states, and also my frenzied revenge. Otherwise, he would be digging his own grave!”
Upon hearing these words, Ye Xingguang felt much more relieved: “Little Baili, in this situation, the only person I can rely on is you.”
No sooner had she finished speaking than her other hand was firmly squeezed by a chubby little hand.noveldrama
Ye Xingguang lowered her head to see Mo Yinhe’s face looking incredibly stinky.
“What’s the matter, Little General Mo?”
“Hmph.” Little General Mo just hmphed, leaving the rest for her to figure out on her own.
How could Ye Xingguang know what his grunt meant?
“Little Baili, keep in touch at all times. I need to know the situation on your side. Alright, enough talk, I’m waiting for you to come and rescue me.”
At this time, one must be truly candid; whether she could stand firm in the empire depended on how many people she could use. Gui Baili was a confidant she was determined to win over. With troops in her hand, she could have confidence.
Beside her, Cao Jianyu was still causing trouble: “Your Highness the Queen, is your solution just to stand here and wait? As the queen who leads the thirteen vassal states of the empire, where is your wisdom? Where is your shrewdness? I do not wish to die here as part of your joint funeral! Do the others wish to become innocent spirits slain by firearms because of a child’s recklessness?”
Hearing Cao Jianyu’s inflammatory remarks, many people who feared death looked at Mo Yinhe with both fear and anger.
“Yes, Your Highness the Queen, we cannot allow ourselves to be buried here because of a bratty child. The more than ten million inhabitants of the imperial capital cannot pay the price for a bratty child’s reckless actions!”
“If we don’t hand over Mo Yinhe now, a torpedo could come down from the sky at any moment, blowing us into a bunch of minced meat! Your Highness the Queen, we must hand over Mo Yinhe today to give Ye Tianfan an explanation. He had no right to shoot Ye Weiqiang anyways; hand him over, hand him over!”
“I don’t want to die. Before Your Highness the Queen returned, the imperial capital has never faced such an extinction-level disaster. Now, before even ascending the throne, you have put the country in crisis. Just earlier in the grand hall, how authoritative you were in backing up your own son, now turn around and support us, protect our lives and property from damage!”
…
Seeing the commotion and noise at the scene, the Third Elder walked over and without a word slapped the last speaker: “To have such a craven youngster in my Geshu family is a complete disgrace!”
The other elders at this moment also sternly reprimanded those noble men and women: “Shut your mouths!”
At the face of a great enemy, the six great elders are firmly supportive of Ye Xingguang, which brings her comfort.
Ye Xingguang swept her gaze around and said sternly: “The Third Elder is right, you all are the key talents of the empire, now or in the future. If you cannot withstand even a little wind and rain, if you fall into disarray before the enemy even attacks, it is a true disgrace to our empire!”
Ye Xingguang aimed to steady people’s hearts, but there were some who just wouldn’t let her off.
Cao Jianyu scornfully said: “Everyone can talk a good game, but Your Highness the Queen and the six elders, how exactly do you plan to protect the imperial capital?”
“This matter does not require your concern. King Cao, you’d better just stay here calmly! Guards, escort King Cao down and treat him well.”
At this time, one definitely cannot allow King Cao to continue stirring trouble here, nor let him run off; who knows if he’s in cahoots with Ye Tianfan, or if he might be an inside agent…
