MTL - Interstellar Fairy Tale-Chapter 129
Someone once described Holhold in this way: This is a green planet and an ocean of flowers.
Hallhold, which is like spring all year round, is a slightly longer summer from June to September. The temperature is not high, which is very suitable for the growth of plants. On a cool night, even the breeze exudes a sweet and greasy flower fragrance.
It was eleven o'clock in the evening, and the House of Governor Holhold was still brightly lit.
The arrival of the Golden Empire Emperor Soran Edrich has tensed the nerves of the entire Hallhold power class. As a favored subject in the era of Hainy III, the Yuga family acted cautiously after the new emperor Soran Edrich took the throne, but the actions of the current family leader, Marshal Novi, seemed a bit out of tune with the family.
"A willful lord will bring great trouble!"
This golden imperial aristocratic motto obviously does not apply to Novi, who cannot become the emperor's trusted direct descendant, but it does not prevent him from dedicating wisdom to the empire. Novi was loyal to the Empire, not Haine III or Soran II. However, he would make a choice when the power of the highest authority in the empire was handed over, so he decisively cut off the connection with Haine III and took refuge in Soran Edrich. Soran Edrich knew this, so he showed a moderate tolerance for some of Novi's behavior. However, this kind of tolerance does not represent the real power of the nobles such as Earl Reichart. As a result, the Yuga family was gradually squeezed out of the Ivan Summer Palace. This result did not have much impact on the family. The concept of one emperor and one courtier It's not out of date, and since the era of Heiny III, Queen Yilan, the mistress of the palace, doesn't like Novi. To be precise, she rejects all people with the surname Yujia, which can also explain why Yujia is very good. During the entire period of Heiny III, the daughter of the direct line could not appear in the position of the court lady, and even the position of the attendant has never appeared as a child of Yuga. Soran Edrich will continue this prejudice, fortunately here. It did not hinder the development of the Yuga family too much. The entire family, like the Holholder they ruled, put more energy and ambition into the imperial army. Leaving the court competition, the emperor's trust in them will be more.
The arrival of Soran Edrich will bring opportunities to the Yuga family. In Hallhold, without the intervention of Earl Reichart, nor the entanglement and slander of power in Ivan's summer palace, Novi will fulfill his responsibility as a family leader and bring the children of the family to the emperor.
At this moment, the leaders of the entire family gathered together. Soran Edrich already knew all this, he just smiled without saying a word.
"Your Majesty, this family has ambitions that cannot be underestimated."
The court clerk Marin who always followed the emperor was the nephew of Count Reichardt. This twenty-eight-year-old young man was only loyal to Soran Edrich, and Count Reichardt had nothing to do with this nephew.
"Ambition?" Soran Edrich liked the word, and preferred to ride ambitious people. "Maybe I'd be happier if you had that kind of ambition. Marlin, you're only twenty-eight, don't act like that. Accidents like your father and uncle."
Marin had no choice but to make fun of the emperor, and he could only pass on his depression to the Yuga family who were excited for the arrival of the emperor. To have an indirect relationship with the most talented young generation of the Earl Reichate family, this is something that neither Novi nor the Yuga family thought of, and the reason is so ridiculous.
After "driving away" Marin, who had been worried all day, always worried about the appearance of rebels and conspirators, Soran Edrich could finally relax.
As the ruler of a huge empire, Soran Edrich is too young and unmarried, which gives a feeling of immaturity. Lan II was actually not having an easy time.
The emperor's ability to handle both government and military affairs does not mean that he likes his personal time to be occupied by these things. The emperor also needs to relax every now and then. As for what Novi was conspiring with his family, Soran Edrich had little interest.
It's eleven forty-five
A game of shogi was placed in front of the emperor. Shang Ping, who was sitting opposite, restrained the urge to yawn while looking at Soran Edrich who was in high spirits, missing the soft big bed in the room very much.
When the stern-faced attendant was dug out of the quilt, Shang Ping kept his eyes closed and listened to the attendant's words. The emperor needed to relax. It was late at night and it was not suitable to go out, so he asked him to play chess with the emperor.
Shang Ping could not refuse and could only rely on coffee and fruit to maintain his spirits. But also mourning his tragic life as a hostage, is this a veritable lie and shot? Before arriving in Holhold, he spent three days and two nights to understand the history of Holhold. After arriving, he couldn't even take a break. He was not a servant or soldier of Soran Edrich, he did not understand why Soran Edrich would let him know the history of this galaxy, and even the ruling and power changes of the previous lords were displayed in front of him. Shang Ping had to be surprised that this family full of conspiracy and tyranny ruled such a beautiful and peaceful planet. But what does this mean to him? Shang Ping didn't think he would live in this kind of conspiracy and tyranny in the future.
"It's your turn."
Soran Edrich's voice was a little low, and it seemed to be hoarse under the shroud of night. The crystal lamp illuminated the emperor's delicately sculpted facial features, forming a fan-shaped shadow under the long curly eyelashes.
Shang Ping put away the imagination in his mind and put his energy back on the chessboard, only to find that this game of chess was already in jeopardy.
Shang Ping didn't like shogi, but he just learned the fur in the military school, and the chess game is standard and quite satisfactory. Soran Edrich was a master of chess, and his royal education from a young age made Soran Edrich not only a qualified ruler of the empire, but also a versatile emperor.
Shang Ping was not good at playing chess, but he could still see the sternness and momentum of Soran Edrich's chess game. He resisted for a while and had to raise his hand to surrender. He is really not an opponent, and he is still holding on to not admit defeat. Isn't he looking for abuse?
Shang Ping's easy admission of defeat made Soran Edrich look unfulfilled.
Soran Edrich also saw Shang Ping's absent-mindedness, he simply pushed the chessboard aside, rested his elbows on the chair, and supported his chin with one hand. His long silver hair was not tied up, which made his smile look very approachable. This kind of approachable makes Shang Ping horrified. He will never forget what a terrifying man this "beauty" is in front of him. He led the imperial fleet to gallop across the stars and shuttled through the flames of war. His words and orders were enough to make a planet bleed into rivers.
"You are often absent-minded."
Soran Edrich is interested in Shang Ping. This black-haired boy has a strong vitality, a bright mind, a forbearance character, and he can study meticulously even with a prank-style course. He has never met him before. been to such a person. This young boy who was stubborn on the battlefield was so disinterested in playing chess. Thinking back, I had captured him twice and brought him into the planned chess game, but he was all safe and sound. Apart from good luck and brains, what else did he not know?
"Your Majesty, I'm not absent-minded, I'm very sleepy." Shang Ping replied sternly: "If you can let me go back to bed now, I will be very grateful."
"Oh?" Soran Edrich suddenly narrowed his eyes, and then smiled. Shang Ping was inevitably flashed, but he was choked by the emperor's next words, "Go back to bed? Yours is mine. ?"
Shang Ping inevitably choked on the coffee, and stared at Soran Edrich in horror.
He heard it wrong, he heard it wrong, he definitely heard it wrong!
"You heard that right." Soran Edrich pinched Shang Ping's chin in a good mood, wiped Shang Ping's lips with his thumb, and said, "I'm very interested in you, if it's you, I don't mind. "
Shang Ping looked at the emperor calmly for two seconds, suddenly squeezed the emperor's wrist with one hand, pressed it tightly on the joint, and pulled the emperor's hand abruptly.
"Sorry, I don't mind."
