The real identity of this suddenly conspicuous “neighboring old lady” seemed to be about to be revealed.
When Yang Ming arrived at the Empire, he had Lyu conduct a detailed investigation, and Lyu had reported on the major forces existing in the Empire.
The royal family’s Reformists, represented by the Second Prince Edwan, gathered a large number of ministers.
The Conservative Party of the royal family, with the Old Emperor at its core, formed a feudal conservative force, to which the First Prince barely belonged.
The New Industrial Association, mainly comprised of foreign capital, now existed in name only, with most of its main members having left. —Kolev, relying on his old ladies’ group, could currently exert a significant influence over this organization.
Needless to say, the military had become a group of businessmen.
What Yang Ming hadn’t yet discovered any specific traces of was the Liberal Revolutionary Party, formerly suppressed many times by the royal family and constantly attempting to overthrow royal power. The leader of the rebels on the Fifth Administrative Star was backed by the New Federation…
Liberal Revolutionary Party.
Was this old economics professor a member of the Liberal Revolutionary Party?
From the standpoint of ideological liberation, it seemed quite possible.
Yang Ming’s gaze became sharper.
He intentionally made a mistake:
“Let me guess… living in seclusion in the underground city, a former professor at Ilando University with extremely high academic prestige… You are a member of the royal family Reformists, right?”
“I oppose the existence of the royal family.”
The old professor said calmly, as if he was already winning:

“The organization I established more than twenty years ago was later named the Liberal Revolutionary Party.”
Windsor was visibly shocked and said in a trembling voice, “You, you are a rebel?”
The old man’s expression was full of loneliness, and he smiled apologetically at Windsor.
The old man said, “The friendship between us is real, Windsor, I really enjoy chatting and having fun with you.”
“Oh, this…”
Miss Windsor was somewhat unable to breathe.
Yang Ming glanced at Lyu, who had already activated comprehensive jamming.
Yang Ming asked gently, “Was it you who founded the Liberal Revolutionary Party?”
“I, along with nine other teachers from Ilando University,” the old professor sighed softly, “we were filled with passion, wanting to strive to change this country, prepared to sacrifice everything.”
Windsor’s pretty face turned a little pale as she couldn’t help but lean closer to Yang Ming.
Yang Ming patted her hand, signaling her not to worry.
The old professor sighed deeply:
“We initially wanted to ignite a revolutionary wave on Ilando Star, but, due to insufficient preparation, we ran into walls repeatedly. Then, we went to Administrative Stars with fewer people. At first, we were only in the dozens, then hundreds, then thousands.”
“Did the royal family suppress you?”
“The royal family didn’t bother with us,” the old professor said with a bitter smile, “they only issued some notices warning us that what we were doing was illegal, and our initial actions were basically online protests, distributing leaflets, and posting slogans.”
Yang Ming was a bit speechless.
“Is this what they called a revolution?”
Windsor whispered, “As far as I know, the royal family initially indeed did not care about the Liberal Revolutionary Party. There were actually many similar organizations, and the royal family, afraid of being labeled for brutal rule internationally, usually turned a blind eye, sometimes even giving some benefits.”
“After we had been active for a few years, the situation changed,” the old professor sighed softly, “we thought it was the dawn of hope, but it was the beginning of a nightmare…”
“Was it the New Federation?” 026 asked. “I read in the news that the New Federation has always been engaged in covert wars.”
“Yes, they funded us twenty years ago, provided us with weapons and equipment, helped train our fighters, but they took away our command, spreading their free ideas within the organization without considering Wind’s actual situation.”
The old professor sighed repeatedly:
“Things gradually turned different.
“They conspired to launch an armed uprising on the Fifth Administrative Star, the poorest, most populous place.
“We, a few old guys, were at a loss, this was not the situation we wanted to see, such would mean many people would die, and without fleet support, it couldn’t succeed.
“They promised that a powerful fleet would come to support us, as long as we occupied the Fifth Administrative Star, this country would have hope.
“We were silent because we then also thought they were right, that bloodshed was inevitable.
“The funny thing is, after the first uprising broke out, those people from the New Federation suddenly disappeared from contact. There were no fleets promised in the sky, only attack boats from the Wind military… thousands were massacred, we lost most of our partners.
“And the New Federation immediately provided us with new aid—they condemned the Empire for tyranny against free people in diplomacy, thereafter defining the Empire as a ruthless ruling empire.
“After that, countless capital and businessmen flowed from the Sherman Wind camp to the New Federation and its allies.”
The old professor let out a bitter laugh:
“The Fifth Administrative Star became even poorer, and the lives of all the people were affected.”
Yang Ming calmly said, “The New Federation was playing a big game with small actions, using the activities of a few agents and a small amount of funds to thwart the economic momentum of the Empire, taking away part of the multinational capital.”
“Exactly.”
The old professor sighed:
“After the failure of the first uprising, we old guys were at a loss, but the agents of the New Federation appeared again, and there were traitors among us.
“Soon, there were a second, third time… twelve years ago we chose to leave the Liberal Revolutionary Party, which I had created with my own hands, it had completely become a tool of the New Federation.
