Chapter 936: Chapter 936: Don’t be afraid, Mommy’s here
In the great hall, Ye Xingguang had already risen to her feet, thinking to go outside and check on the situation. She took just two steps before rembering she couldn’t leave the two children alone in the hall—what if soone took them out and handed them over to Ye Weiqiang’s son?
So, she turned back and extended her hand: “Xiaohua, Little Mo, co with .”
Yin Xiaohua was preoccupied with eating, seemingly unaware of the impending disaster, wiped her little hands, and placed her small hand in Ye Xingguang’s.
Mo Yinhe was even more composed, standing up leisurely, staring at Ye Xingguang’s hand, and hesitated for a mont.
Ye Xingguang firmly grasped Mo Yinhe’s chubby little hand, trying to reassure him, giving him a soothing look: “Don’t be afraid, Mommy is here, I absolutely won’t let anyone take you away.”
Mo Yinhe eerily quieted for three seconds, then calmly followed her out of the great hall.
All six Elders, twelve sovereigns of the Vassal States, and other distinguished guests of the imperial capital, followed behind Ye Xingguang, exiting the great hall and looking up at the military submarines arrayed in an orderly fashion above the imperial capital.
This is bad, yet the heart remains steady.
A look, only to feel more panic, many guests were so frightened their faces turned pale, desperately seeking a mainstay.
Clearly, Ye Xingguang was not the mainstay they had in mind. Several people chased after the six Elders, asking:
“Third Elder, what should we do now?”
“Great Elder, please tell us, how do we resolve this crisis?”
“Second Elder, think of sothing!”
“Fifth Elder, …”
“Fourth Elder…”
“Sixth Elder, we can’t just sit here and wait to die.”
Behind Ye Xingguang, anxious guests were urgently inquiring; at this mont, no one was asking her anymore, probably all convinced she had no solution to the crisis, so they didn’t count on her.
Only Fu Zhuo and Xiao Yun stood by her side, vigilantly protecting her, fearing others would use her to solve problems.
“Xiaohua, are you scared?” Ye Xingguang squatted down to comfort Yin Xiaohua.
Yin Xiaohua’s tender little face didn’t show a hint of panic. Her plump little mouth smacking, she continued to eat the snack in her mouth, finishing it before saying, “Pretty aunty, Big Mo Pig will protect .”
Ye Xingguang breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the kids weren’t frightened.
“Little Mo, don’t be afraid either.”
Mo Yinhe spoke expressionlessly: “What’s there to be scared of? If you feel you can’t handle it, just hand over.”
“I am not that feeble, you just take good care of Xiaohua, leave the rest to .”
Ye Xingguang said this without much confidence, but the situation being as it was, she absolutely could not fall into disarray.
She twirled her ring, connecting to Gui Baili.
“Your Highness the Queen,” Gui Baili bowed his head in salute from the virtual screen.
“Lili, where are you?”
Gui Baili said, “I’m in the Vassal State of Kali Teya, just got word of the situation in the imperial capital. The journey back will probably take two hours. Your Highness, try to stall for two hours; I’ve already dispatched confidants to protect you at the palace, and the Deputy General is preparing for battle.”
Gui Baili had received Ye Xingguang’s orders in the morning and secretly mobilized troops towards the Vassal State of Kali Teya. Now, warships had already been lying in wait in the skies of Kali Teya, concealed and ready. Unexpectedly, news just arrived that over a hundred military vessels appeared above the imperial capital.
With Ye Weiqiang in her hands, securing a two-hour negotiation window, Ye Xingguang felt confident.
“Alright, I’ll wait for you. But if a fight breaks out, the imperial capital will surely be a river of blood. I’d still prefer a peaceful solution. So, ensure you have control over the Vassal State of Kali Teya, that way I’ll have leverage for the negotiations.”
