MTL - Interstellar Fairy Tale-Chapter 70
Golden Empire Summer Palace
The Queen of the Empire, Yilan, has recently changed her low profile. In recent days, she has repeatedly summoned the Grand Duchess of the Royal Family, powerful figures in the military and political circles, and their families. It is worth mentioning that, in exchange for the loyalty and support of these powerful figures in the golden empire, Queen Yilan conveyed some kind of suggestive message to the courtiers and the royal princes who had young girls in the family with an ambiguous attitude. This does not mean that the palace of the first prince Soran Edrich will soon have a distinguished mistress, but, at least, after Hainy III, the throne of the emperor will be vacated by the throne of the queen. Come on, this is a very tempting suggestion, seemingly without any substantive meaning, but it has shaken the beliefs of some of the servants who are still loyal to Hainy III.
Loyal to Hainy III, whose prestige and power are beginning to decline, or will he entrust the future of his family to the next emperor of the empire?
The weights on both ends of the scale began to increase and decrease significantly. At least, more and more people were inclined towards Soran Edrich, the first prince of the empire.
Of course, the actions of Queen Yilan, the noble dukes, and the powerful ministers and generals still cannot escape the eyes of Haini III. His Majesty the Emperor will always have a way to know how his ministers and wives are secretly trampling his prestige and dignity on the ground ridiculed. However, at this moment, Hainy III cannot do anything, neither drive his wife from the summer palace back to the constellation, nor imprison his subjects who have betrayed him in cosmic prisons or exile because of unsubstantiated speculation. Frontier is a star.
Grand Duchess Aifu seemed to be completely unaware that the emperor, whom she was relying on, had begun to lose his power. This plump and charming woman, leaning on the fabric sofa embroidered with roses, crocheted lace, looked at her son with a smile, the illegitimate child who had just been recognized by His Majesty the Emperor, Derain Edrich, in a childish childish voice , reciting a love poem that has been handed down in the empire for thousands of years.
"...Rose, rain and dew! A blond girl, with green eyes full of starlight, with lips like rose petals, she sings an ancient song, and sends her lover to the battlefield... The glory of a warrior, the tears of a girl, the glory of the golden empire..."
The poems written thousands of years ago used the most beautiful emotions to express the most cruel and tragic.
"…His Majesty?"
Haini III stood outside the door at some point, pushed open the door, and the warmth of the room made him mistakenly think that he was not the emperor of the empire, but an ordinary man, and in front of him was his wife, his children...
However, in the surprised eyes and slightly excited voice of Princess Aifu, this illusion was shattered like a mirage...
In the end, it's just a luxury.
Heiny III buried his sigh in his heart and looked at Grand Princess Aifu who lifted her skirt and walked towards him, but in his mind he thought of his wife Yiyi who was in the summer palace, trying to drive him off the emperor's throne. orchid. Perhaps, these two women once loved him, and he used to be their god, but now, their love has long been involved in the whirlpool of power and no longer exists.
The door of the room was closed behind Haini III. His Majesty the emperor, who had already begun to age, began to build a beautiful dream that was made up of escape and powerlessness in this small other palace.
In the summer palace, Queen Yilan was not angry at Haini III's departure from the palace to another palace again.
"Your Majesty, this is the third time."
"kindness?"
"It's the third time this week! How can His Majesty the Emperor behave so indiscreetly!"
Duke York's gray beard, and the corners of his mouth twitched with anger, further indicated that the old man, who was highly respected in the royal family, was already very dissatisfied with Haney III. In this way, it shows how much she failed as a wife.
However, Yilan smiled slightly, using the most appropriate language and the most elegant demeanor, to appease the anger of the Archduke of York, now she does not need to be a qualified wife, she only needs to be an elegant in the eyes of the imperial family and officials A decent queen, and more importantly, she must do everything a mother can do.
She wants to protect her child, although from the beginning, Yilan knew that her proud son doesn't need her protection at all, but she is a mother, and there are some things she must do! At least, there cannot be a single mistake before her son ascends to the throne of the Emperor of the Empire.
After sending off the Archduke of York, Queen Yilan once again relayed the current situation of the empire to the distant frontier galaxy in great detail. Soran Eddrich was stationed outside for a long time, and Her Majesty the Queen was happy to see Soran Eddrich firmly control the army in his own hands. However, as the first prince of the empire and the future heir to the throne, Soran Edrich could not Perpetually lingering outside the ranks of power, he has responsibilities that he must fulfill.
When receiving the message from Queen Yilan from the empire, Soran Edrich looked blankly at Shang Ping, who was barely able to stand. He clamped the boy's chin with one hand, rubbing the cream-colored skin with his fingertips. The red blood stained on the fingertips wiped a clear trace on the lips. The black-haired boy should probably be afraid, but those black eyes were surprisingly calm, as if the touch on his face was just an illusion, and his aching ribs were just an illusion.
Giovanna was not at all surprised that Soran Edrich would arrive so quickly, he was just a little surprised that His Royal Highness the First Prince had clearly bet on these two prisoners of war—no, perhaps it should be said that it was the black-haired prisoner of war. Too much concern, it's not just that dignity and realm are not allowed to be violated.
Soran Edrich didn't care about Giovanna's gloomy expression, and he wasn't very interested in Queen Yilan's message. Although it is far away from the border, the capital of the empire, or the summer palace, the every move of the great emperor will be reported to him on a regular basis. Soran Edrich even had some kind of absurd idea. Is it because his communication channel was discovered by the emperor, so the great Hainy III would make such a reckless and absurd move?
Recognizing an illegitimate child, and pushing this illegitimate child in front of the imperial family and officials of the empire, challenging the system that has been passed down in the empire for thousands of years.
Should I say the man he called his father was stupid? Or should I praise the man's courage?
And his mother, apparently, has begun to do whatever it takes to overthrow his father. Thinking of the imperial wealthy daughters that Queen Yilan had mentioned before, Soran Edrich's brows wrinkled involuntarily, looking at Shang Ping, who was pale and dripping with cold sweat. Soran Edrich pursed the corners of his mouth, recalling the boy's past and the message Novi sent back from the Muse galaxy.
After thinking for a moment, Soran Edrich finally removed his hand from Shang Ping's chin, but then made a move that shocked everyone.
The noble first prince of the Golden Empire, Soran Edrich, actually hugged a prisoner of war who could not stand still in his arms!
Shang Ping was really surprised this time, his eyes widened, and under the gaze of Rochette's ghostly expression, he was carried out of the cell by Soran Edrich.
