Asking the queen to reprimand Li Ningbi, she was really speechless. Just when she was about to tell the female officer to ask Yunbi to come over, the personal maid came in to report,
"Queen, Miss Li is here and wants to see you."
Yang Manlin raised her eyes with a look of surprise. Just when she was about to look for her, she came by herself. What a coincidence!
"Let her in,"
The emperor and queen's bedroom is a luxurious palace. It is completely different from the modern architectural style. It has been passed down from generation to generation by the royal family. Although the appearance is still in the style of the old era, the building materials and interior decoration have been changed long ago. The room is very in line with the aesthetics of interstellar people. Style, very fashionable.
Li Ningbi made up her mind to ask the queen to help her speak a good word and ask her majesty to greet the military commander. If her parents' spaceship was in danger, she would save their lives. She knew that she was selfish, but who could do it? Are your parents and relatives indifferent when they are in danger?
As soon as Li Ningbi came in, her eyes were red and her tears fell like broken beads. She cried and shouted: "Mother, you must help me."
Li Ningbi was engaged to the prince, and with the emperor's official canonization, she was determined to be the future crown princess. Although she was still called Miss Li in the palace, she had long called the emperor husband and wife, father, queen, and mother.
When Yang Manlin saw her appearance, she was stunned and said, "Ning Bi, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying? If anything happens, my mother will make the decision for you."
The queen is also a smart person. She understood it after just a moment's thought. She felt very unhappy and thought to herself, "I haven't bothered you yet, but you are here to give me a problem. Is it possible that your mother-in-law is afraid of danger if she returns directly to the voyage?"
But the queen still pretended not to know and comforted her with a gentle voice.
Li Ningbi choked and said: "Mother, please save my parents. They wanted to come to the Imperial City to see me, and they happened to sail near the Blazing Star. If they encounter the Zerg, it would be very dangerous. I really don't have it. The only solution is to ask my mother."
Now that Li Ningbi had explained her words, Yang Manlin could no longer pretend to be confused. Her face darkened.
"Ning Bi, why are you so confused? You begged me to save your parents. Why not contact them quickly and return home? Bichen Star has three main armies stationed there. It is very safe. However, in the Blazing Star Territory, there is only the 11th Army fighting against the Zerg. I don't know. How long can you hold on? It's only a matter of time before you collapse. If your parents are hit by a wave of insects, no one can save them. The most important thing you should do now is contact them and go back as soon as possible."
Li Ningbi's face flashed with surprise. She didn't know that the main force of the three legions were stationed near Bichenxing, otherwise she would have sent her parents back.
"Queen Mother, do you mean that Bichenxing is the safest place?"
The mobilization of the three major legions was no secret. The Queen said directly: "Originally, the National Master predicted that the Zerg would appear in the star field near Bichen Star, so the military headquarters mobilized the three major legions to deploy defenses there. Unexpectedly, the Zerg's lair was on the Hemiao Star. The three major legions Reinforcements will definitely be sent to the Blazing Star Territory, and it will take a week at the earliest. It is the right time for your parents to return home. What are you afraid of when you are protected by three legions?"
Li Ningbi was stunned, and then said after a long while: "Mother, it's too late. I communicated with my father through video an hour ago, and they have decided to take the risk and continue sailing to the Imperial Capital Star."
Yang Manlin looked puzzled, "What are your parents thinking? Why do you rush in even though you know there is danger ahead?"
"My parents feel that the central galaxy is safe. If our army cannot stop the Zerg, the Zerg army will definitely invade the middle galaxy, so they took the risk and continued to move forward without returning."
Li Ningbi blinked and tears welled up. What should I do now?
Yang Manlin looked ugly. Taking into account the communication delay, another hour had passed. It was estimated that the Li family's spaceship had arrived at the Blazing Star. Whether they could escape or not depended on their luck.
"Mother, please save my parents, even if there is a glimmer of hope."
The queen looked at Li Ningbi who was crying and said in a deep voice: "How can I save them? They are several star fields apart. Besides, they are definitely fine now. Since they are not in danger, why are you anxious?"
"Mother, it will be too late when we are in danger. Please help me beg my father for mercy. Let the army encounter the Li family's spaceship and be in danger. You must save my parents."
Li Ningbi cried for a long time before explaining her purpose.
Yang Manlin looked at her sharply, "Ning Bi, do you know how many citizens of the empire there are on so many planets in the Blazing Star Territory, and how many people can intercept the Zerg army in this situation?"
Li Ningbi felt a chill in her heart, but she still said bravely: "I don't know how many troops there are. It is estimated that there are tens of billions of people on all the major planets together."
Yang Manlin held back her anger and said: "You also know that there are tens of billions of people. At this time, there is only the 11th Army on Hemiao Star. One legion is fighting against the Zerg. All supporting legions will arrive in three days or a week. They must protect How can tens of billions of people take care of your Li family alone?"
The future crown princess of the empire did not understand this. If the situation allowed, she would not object to taking care of the Li family. Now the situation is critical. The 11th Army is likely to be wiped out, and the lives of tens of billions of people will be at risk. Ning Bi He is so selfish that he only wants his own relatives.
The queen didn't blame her. Yang Manlin understood her feelings, but she didn't agree with her actions.
Li Ningbi had been mentally prepared for a long time. She had even rehearsed what the queen would say. She plopped down and knelt at Yang Manlin's feet.
"Mother, I know I'm very selfish, but when I think about my parents coming to see me, I'm in danger by doing nothing. But I don't have the ability, so I can only beg my mother. I don't want to lose my parents. They only have one daughter..."
Li Ningbi could speak, but she was kneeling on the ground crying and choking while talking, which made Yang Manlin feel sour. If all the Li family died, it would be cruel to Ning Bi, but there were only so many troops in the front. Maybe they will be sent out separately to escort the Li family's spaceship.
Li Ningbi kept crying, Yang Manlin's expression changed uncertainly, and she felt irritable. What is this? His Majesty asked him to tell her about privately informing the Li family.
Before she could speak, it was Ning Bi who came to ask for help from her parents.
At this time, even the Queen's parents, who were in danger on the Blazing Star, couldn't help her. No matter how she spoke to His Majesty, the Queen was so depressed that she almost vomited blood, and it didn't give her any peace of mind.
The Queen said with an ugly face: "You get up first, listen to me, don't worry too much about your parents. There is no news about the Zerg breaking through the Hemiao Star. They are fine for the time being. It is understandable that you care about your relatives, but you must also consider the situation. Some It doesn’t matter if it has nothing to do with the overall situation, there are some things that we have no choice but to do nothing about.”
Yang Manlin motioned to the maid, helped Li Ningbi up, and asked her to sit down before talking.
Li Ningbi knew very well that the queen looked gentle on the outside but had a tough personality. She was not so easy to convince. She had been holding on to a glimmer of hope. She would regret it if she didn't do it. She cried for so long but failed to convince the queen. It seemed that there was little hope. , she could only follow the steps, let the maid help her up, sit on the chair, and wipe the tears on her face with a silk scarf.
Seeing that Li Ningbi was still sobbing, the queen advised: "Don't cry. As the future crown princess of the empire, you have to take care of the overall situation and don't care about your own private affairs. You didn't discuss it with me and just rashly asked your mother-in-law to come over. That's right." You made a mistake, and His Majesty is already angry. I blame you, but I am still hesitant. You have not made any big mistakes. What does the appearance of the Zerg have to do with you?"
Li Ningbi raised her head in disbelief and defended: "Mother, how could your father blame me for such a trivial matter? The news spread widely, and almost everyone in the upper echelons of the Imperial City knew, where did I go wrong?"
