MTL - Interstellar Fairy Tale-Chapter 150
"Your Majesty is going to marry a commoner princess from an alien galaxy, which is really worrying."
The old-fashioned nobles in the capital of the Golden Empire whispered all day long, but did not have the courage to question the emperor's decision in person. Empress Dowager Yilan's attitude has been made clear, and Earl Reichate also maintains an ambiguous attitude, but none of them will stand up against the emperor, there is no doubt about it.
After Marshal Novi arrived in the capital of the empire, he was busy receiving old-fashioned aristocrats with a smell of incense all day long. These guys who lived in the glory of the past and were keen on fine wine and pleasure made him tired, but he couldn't turn them away. outside.
"Your Excellency Marshal, do you also have doubts about this?"
Baron Weddell didn't notice Novi's impatience at all, his chubby body slumped on the wide seat, his fingers wearing a huge gemstone ring raised the wine glass and drank the wine in it. The turbid eyes showed his drunken state, but the flash of light did not escape Novi's eyes.
Tired of these silverfish's all-day temptation, these guys whose heads are eroded by wine, should have learned some lessons.
Putting away his displeasure, Novi chuckled and said, "Why question your Majesty's decision? His Majesty is about to have an imperial concubine and end his single life, isn't it good? Although he was born in a foreign galaxy and is a commoner, But a boy cannot affect the bloodline of the crown prince of the empire. Besides, His Majesty seems to favor him, as long as it is a personal favor on the surface, it will always be beneficial. If one day he falls out of favor, or His Majesty plans to marry another emperor Concubine, noble women will always be the first consideration. Presumably the Empress Dowager Yilan and Earl Reichate also considered these things, so they didn't come forward to object."
"That being said, it is true."
Baron Weddell sat up straight with a little difficulty, and the belt on his coat made a slight cracking sound due to his movements. Fortunately, the tough leather maintained his dignity as a baron and did not break on the spot. Of course, this did not affect the Baron's mood in the slightest.
"You are right, Your Excellency Novi."
Having finally sent away Baron Weddell, Marshal Novi was finally able to shake off the chatter of these old-fashioned nobles. It is believed that the guy who gets the news of the baron will not come to visit again, they will target the next noble who arrives in the capital. These guys, whose brains are occupied by fat, will never understand a truth: Only loyal to the ruler of the empire is the way to survive. Life in the days of Heine III had made them a little carried away.
"The guy who is looking for death, there is no need to waste the nutrients of life."
Novi is a little envious of Giovanna, although Giovanna vowed not to set foot in the Ivan Summer Palace, seemingly lost the glory of the noble, but avoided a lot of trouble.
Sly guy!
If one day Soran Edrich ordered the execution of all the old-fashioned aristocrats who parasitized the capital, the financial and judicial departments of the Empire would celebrate with their foreheads, these guys who always try to evade taxes and challenge the authority of the law, from the moment of decay and depravity, full of Private money and defiance of the laws of the Empire was enough to exhume their corpses from their coffins and openly flog them.
Although the emperor has no such plan for the time being, if these old-fashioned nobles continue to sneak around in private and try to challenge the emperor's authority, the scythe of the **** of death will be getting closer and closer to their necks.
Novi, who already knew something about Soran Edrich, would not do anything to betray the emperor again. Knowing that it was death, who would be stupid enough to put his neck under the knife?
"No, there may still be such a guy. There are never too many people looking for death."
The attendant was obviously taken aback by the marshal's self-talk, bowed his head with a pale face, and bowed out of the room.
Ivan Summer Palace
Shang Ping's mood was very complicated when he saw the Mars soldiers being sent to Deco.
He thought he wouldn't care much, but, looking at the lines of soldiers standing expressionlessly across the airport on the light screen, he couldn't say a word. There seemed to be something stuck in my throat, which was very uncomfortable.
"The physical fitness of these warriors is very good, don't you really plan to transform them all? Oh, by the way, after you capture that planet, the prisoners of war will give me one-third, as long as you are born A captive of a planet, and the others don’t…”
Harlan's words were just a matter of habit, the prisoners of war after the imperial fleet's expedition would be sent to Saisha, but the transformed clone troopers were not at his disposal, and most depended on the imperial generals who captured them. This is imperial practice. But these words were very harsh to Shang Ping.
Shang Ping felt sad that he was hypocritical. According to the words of the earth age, it was hypocrisy. These people will end like this, isn't it because of him?
"What's wrong?"
Soran Edrich walked behind Shang Ping, put one hand on the back of the sofa, and the other hand supported Shang Ping's chin, forcing him to raise his head, the emperor's beautiful face reflected in his eyes, his expression was indifferent, but he didn't. Frightening. Those blue eyes looked deeply into his eyes, as if to explore the deepest part of his soul.
Can't think any more...
Shang Ping closed his eyes and cleared his mind. Soran Edrich had warned him that his patience was limited. Since he had already made a deal with the emperor, Shang Ping couldn't let these emotions affect him any longer.
He is now a soldier of the Golden Empire, with the rank of major. As for another identity, Shang Ping refused to think about it.
"nothing."
When he opened his eyes again, the brown eyes had returned to calm, clear without a hint of gloom. Soran Edrich looked at him for a while, but after all, he didn't say anything, he just lowered his head and kissed Shang Ping's forehead lightly, his warm lips, but Shang Ping felt a chill.
"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you."
Soran Edrich's words were somewhat inexplicable, but Shang Ping could understand what he was implying. Sitting opposite Shang Ping, Harlan, who has been regarded as the background since just now? Edrich tried his best to maintain his royal upbringing, not to roll his eyes at His Majesty the Emperor, but obviously, he failed.
When Count Reichardt had an audience with the emperor, Harlan? Edrich was also in the Emperor's office, looking at the faint bruises on the corners of Harlan's mouth, the Prime Minister of the Empire wisely chose to turn a blind eye and not say a word.
After the emperor and Haran left, Shang Ping always felt that something was wrong when he looked at the message sent by the communicator.
Hundreds of thousands of warships have been put in place, and the soldiers have also begun to control the warships to conduct simulated battles, and some combat armors have also entered the battle. After each battle, Shang Ping received detailed information and reports. The process of these battles was like the most accurate textbooks and templates, but Shang Ping just felt that something was wrong.
It's too rigid, it's just meticulous, and there's no flexibility at all. Perhaps these chipped Mars warriors will become the most loyal subordinates, but their every move is based on the data of the chip implantation. This terrible flaw made Shang Ping break a cold sweat.
Did Soran Edrich know this would happen from the start?
Shang Ping himself can be the commander of the fleet, but such a huge fleet cannot have only one general commander, and the commander of the subship is equally important! Combat staff is also indispensable. To occupy a planet or even a galaxy simply by virtue of these rigid soldiers is simply a fantasy!
Shang Ping needs a brave and intelligent single-ship commander, and also needs a combat staff who can understand the commander's tactical intentions and cooperate with them. He couldn't turn to anyone but Goodwill and Soran Edrich!
It was not until this moment that Shang Ping discovered that he was so isolated and helpless in this huge galaxy.
Shang Ping did not let Goodwill participate in the battle plan to occupy the Muse from the beginning, so he could only ask Soran Edrich for help. But in this way, his unique force will eventually become a vassal of the empire, and he himself, as promised by the emperor during the transaction, will completely become the emperor's thing.
Still too naive.
Shang Ping bit his lip. Since he will be at a disadvantage from the beginning, he must get more benefits from this disadvantage.
Turning his head to the side, looking at the dress hanging by the bedside, inexplicable emotions flashed in his brown eyes.
The next day, Shang Ping was pulled up from the bed by the maid. Although he did not need to dress up like a noble lady, Shang Ping was still busy for several hours surrounded by maids and court officials. From the hairstyle to the earrings, from the collar to the cufflinks, to the shiny boot heels, Shang Ping was powerless to resist. Although he tried to dispute the expensive earrings, a sapphire earring stubbornly appeared in his ear.
Well, His Excellency the Attendant said, this is the wink in the emperor's eyes, so he must wear it!
Looking at the freshly-baked mobile gem booth in the full-length mirror, Shang Ping closed his eyes and simply broke the jar, "Come on, let the gems and diamonds come more violently!"
So, under the ear buckle, there is another brown crystal.
"It's the look of your eyes," said the attendant.
"Ah, thank you very much." Shang Ping bared a standard smile with eight teeth.
However, no matter how you look at this standard smile, there is a trace of grimness.
Shang Ping was preparing for the banquet all day, during which Soran Edrich disappeared, and Empress Dowager Yilan miraculously appeared in front of him. The arrogant Empress Dowager raised her swan-like graceful neck, her blue eyes swept across Shang Ping's body, and she nodded reluctantly. Gently shaking the incense fan trimmed with lace, he turned and left.
Shang Ping looked at himself in the mirror silently.
The sun sheds its last rays, and the evening glow hangs on the sky. Ivan Summer Palace opened the palace door, and on the long corridor walls, golden wall lamps illuminated every corner of the palace.
In the luxurious banquet hall, huge crystal chandeliers hang from the dome, the court musicians have already taken their places, and the servants and maids shuttled back and forth to make the final preparations for the banquet.
Aircraft painted with different family crests kept landing in front of Ivan Summer Palace, gentlemen and ladies stepped down the ramp, and the gems on their dresses shone brightly under the lights.
The palace guards and the attendants were separated on both sides of the red carpet leading to the banquet hall from the apron. Only guests with an invitation letter could enter the palace.
In the banquet hall, the musician had already played the note, and at the same time, a very inconspicuous black aircraft landed on the tarmac.
"Please show your invitation."
"OK."
The black-haired beauty who stepped off the aircraft smiled and sent the invitation letter to the attendant. After confirming that it was correct, she took the arm of the brown-haired man, lifted the hem of her burgundy skirt, and elegantly followed him to the banquet hall.
The brown-haired man seemed a little stiff, and seemed to want to pull his arms out, but tried his best to restrain himself.
"Edgar, smile, you look like you're going into battle. Do you want us to be noticed?"
The black-haired beauty turned her head sideways, a few strands of hair hung down from the bun at the back of her head, brushing the cream-colored neck with a seductive smell. The man reminded by "she" did not appreciate it, nor did he have the slightest interest in the beauty in front of him. If he could, he wanted to kick the man out.
"Goodwill, you wait for me!"
"Darling? Love? Yes," Goodwill smiled closer to Edgar, completely ignoring the murderous look in his eyes, "Calm down, baby's once-in-a-lifetime engagement, of course you don't want to make a mistake, right? If his father If you and your adoptive father are killed or arrested on the spot, it will make the baby very sad, right? Also, you don't want anything to happen to that blond boy who stayed in Huoxing, right?"
Edgar choked in one breath, could this man be any more shameless? !
