Chapter 935: Shall We Fall in Love Now That the Crisis Is Over?
Ye Xingguang looked at the cowardly figure, not knowing which prestigious family’s young master he might be. Dressed up to the nines, yet so feeble in spirit!
If panic spreads because of him, Xiao Mo, who stood up for her today, might just become the sacrificial lamb offered up by the crowd. That was something Ye Xingguang would never allow to happen!
Her face turned stern, and she issued an order: "Xiao Yun, drag this coward away. Anyone else who dares to speak such feeble words about begging for mercy from the rebels will be executed on the spot!"
Standing next to Fu Zhuo, Xiao Yun did not utter another word but dragged the fearful young man away.
However, this did nothing to calm the hearts of the guests present, let alone appease the distress of over ten million people living in the Imperial City!
Cao Jianyu stood up, his voice finally regaining some confidence: "Your Highness, the Queen, the situation has been provoked by Mo Yinhe. Are you really willing to sacrifice over ten million citizens of the Imperial City for the troubles your son has caused? How can we follow Your Highness, a Queen who disregards the safety of her people?"
Ye Xingguang sneered: "If I were to comply under pressure from any rebellious force that approaches, allowing them to achieve their goals, then I don’t deserve to have you Kings follow me, do I? Is that how you rule your dominion, King Cao? Surrendering to every demand as soon as terrorists surround your Diat principalities? Indeed, you’d make quite the ruler."
Cao Jianyu was at a loss for words.
Ye Xingguang’s gaze swept across the room, becoming increasingly sharp: "Which of you Kings here runs their dominions like King Cao?"
That would be utterly pathetic!
