MTL - Interstellar Fairy Tale-Chapter 73
Galaxy Calendar September 1128
The Emperor of the Golden Empire, Heine III, is seriously ill!
Soran Edrich received a secret report from the capital of the Golden Empire, and the first thing that came to his mind was—Has Her Majesty the Queen finally decided not to endure her husband whose behavior is getting more and more deviant?
A mocking smile flickered on the corner of his mouth. As the first prince of the empire and the orthodox first heir to the throne, Soran Edrich knew exactly what this secret report meant to him. It is not yet certain whether the great prince will be ill at this point - or should I say, whether Haini III can have a chance to recover, depends entirely on Queen Yilan's mood, or whether Soran Edrich will be kind-hearted or not. Fa's cares about the father and son affection. The only thing that can be confirmed at the moment is that Queen Ilan has completely suppressed the news, except perhaps for her cronies, as well as members of the royal family and important ministers who have fully expressed their support for Soran Edrich's succession to the throne - no, maybe this Not the majority of them, most of them, still do not know that His Majesty the Emperor is seriously ill, just as the New Year is approaching.
"Your Highness..."
For the first time, Admiral Ida lost his cool in front of Soran Edrich, if only for a moment. As loyal followers of His Royal Highness the First Prince, like Lieutenant General Metz, who is also a young army officer and abandoned the old-fashioned aristocratic habits, they all look forward to the silver-haired Prince, wearing a crown that symbolizes the great power of the empire. That moment comes.
Lieutenant General Metz clenched his fists excitedly, his handsome face was a joy that could not be concealed no matter what. This should not be the reaction of a noble officer when he heard that the emperor was seriously ill, even if he kept saying: "This is really unfortunate news."
Soran Edrich began to have a headache for his capable man who didn't know how to hide his emotions, and some regretted that he should not have told him the secret report so easily. At least Ida could control his emotions perfectly, and Metz - like a sage As said, an excellent Imperial soldier, in addition to learning to command the fleet and fight heroically, has a lot to learn.
"Your Highness, what should I do next?"
Harlan Edrich apparently saw what was behind the tip. As a member of the royal family, Harlan thought more than Ida and Metz, who simply expected Soran Edrich to ascend the throne and control the entire empire. In any case, this secret report is only a secret report at present. It has not been released to the whole country, and it has been announced that His Majesty the Emperor is no longer fit to control state affairs. To put it simply, it represents premature joy and celebration before the death knell of Hainy III's death really rings. All are out of date.
"Are you ready to go home immediately?"
Harlan's words are obviously more in line with Soran Edrich's current considerations. In any case, his mother, the current queen of the empire, Yilan, passed the news to him through a special channel, hoping that he could return to China as soon as possible.
Perhaps, the mother would prefer him to announce to the entire empire that the emperor was seriously ill? Or put on a show of kindness and filial piety in front of Hainy III's hospital bed? Could it be that His Majesty the Emperor would really hold the hand of his eldest son and hand over the power that he had held for half his life without any nostalgia?
Soran Edrich chuckled lightly, resting his chin with one hand, no longer maintaining a straight soldier's posture, his long silver hair hanging down on the white military uniform, like a silver light sprinkled on the pure white.
"If you want to go back to China, then Novi and Giovanna must be with you."
Harlan Eddrich clasped his hands and supported it on the arm of the tall back chair. He believed that Soran Edrich knew very well that Giovanna, who was a loyal servant of Hainy III, had no relationship with His Majesty the Emperor and the Emperor. Among the first princes, Novi, who has gained double trust, has an influence in the noble class that cannot be underestimated. Queen Yilan might be able to tie the royal family members firmly to Soran Edrich's battleship. Of course, the young nobles have already stood behind the first prince, but those middle-aged, or stubborn, stubborn Pie, for Soran Edrich, is still a force to be reckoned with. If the old-fashioned aristocrats living in "prehistoric" are not drawn together, or a way is found to make them not suspicious of the next emperor's succession to the throne, Giovanna and Novi will play a very good lubricating role.
"All right."
Soran Edrich nodded, Harlan turned his head sideways, and whispered a few words to Gerhard who was bowing. Gerhard replied respectfully, turned and walked out. Not long ago, Soran Edrich used a not-so-smart, but justifiable excuse to put Giovanna under house arrest.
As an aristocratic family with a long-standing surname, Giovanna made a mistake, which may not be a big deal, but it is unforgivable to investigate it seriously!
Giovanna privately hurt what belonged to Soran Edrich without Soran Edrich's permission - the prisoner of war of His Royal Highness the First Prince. Although before this incident, including Soran Edrich himself, he did not think that he would be angry with such a small incident, but it did happen.
On the same day, Shang Ping was brought back to his room. Along the way, the soldiers and officers standing on both sides of the teleportation bridge were all surprised to see His Royal Highness, who was as noble as an eternal and immortal star.
And the person who was held in His Royal Highness's arms was still stunned and indifferent to being struck by lightning.
Simply unforgivable!
Perhaps Shang Ping didn't know that, compared to his previous evaluation of Liu Xi, the president of the Republic of Seth, the prince of the Golden Empire is more suitable to use those four words to describe - personality cult!
When Soran Edrich discussed with Harlan Edrich and his confidant officers, Shang Ping remained bored in his transparent cage.
Yes, the cage.
Poor student Shang Ping didn't want to count how long he had been locked up as a "cherished animal". In short, as long as he appeared within sight of Soran Edrich, he would definitely be covered with a transparent layer. cover.
what is this? Guard against terrorists? Wouldn't these imperial soldiers be so bad?
Shang Ping was extremely bored, and began to recall that when he was put back in the room last night, Lochte grinned and complained to him. He was obviously injured as well. live?
Shang Ping scratched his head helplessly, grabbed the eagle-shaped epaulette in his hand, blinked, and fanned his long eyelashes, so that Rochette almost forgot what he was going to say next, but Shang Ping's next words , almost made him vomit three liters of blood.
"Maybe it's a character issue?"
"Shang Ping, I'm going to kill you! I swear!"
Ugh…
Shang Ping rubbed his chin with one hand, sighed, and turned to a more comfortable position. The hatch in front of him suddenly opened, and Soran Edrich and his party came out of the other cabin. Obviously, they had just The topic of discussion is not easy, but these beautiful and smart people must have come up with a corresponding solution.
Harlan Edrich did not stop there. Although the celestial body was built by the sappers under his leadership, as a commander of the Soran Edrich fleet, he spent more time on his own. in the flagship. Admiral Date and Lieutenant Admiral Metz also received orders. Since Novi is an indispensable and important existence, it is imperative to exchange prisoners with the Mars Space Fleet. This unprecedented behavior of exchanging prisoners is very unfamiliar to them. After all, for the soldiers of the Golden Empire, there are only two fates for the prisoners, or they are completely brainwashed and become a member of the fleet - such as the previous El Fei Wait for someone, or just wait for death.
exchange?
Just thinking about it makes it impossible!
Solan Edrich walked in front of Shang Ping, and the transparent barrier between the two slowly rose. As the surrounding sound gradually recovered, Shang Ping lowered his eyes, and he suddenly had a bad premonition. . The next moment, an ice-cold hand raised his chin. It was not strong, but it was just right so that he couldn't resist. He could only follow the intention of the owner of the hand and raised his head. Looking into a pair of icy blue eyes, those eyes are deep and beautiful, like the deepest ice sea in the age of the earth. Just looking at it will make people tremble with fear, but they are still involuntarily attracted. It is a confusion and fatal attraction derived from fear and fear.
Soran Edrich quietly looked at the face in front of him for a while. The touch of his fingers was still the same as before, silky and warm, reminding him of the golden wagtail kept in the garden. However, this wagtail has black feathers, and cleverly hides his beauty and style in the depths, occasionally revealing it, but unexpectedly charming.
For a moment, Soran Edrich had the idea of bringing this wagtail back to the capital and raising it in the garden, but then he dismissed this somewhat ridiculous idea. Let go of Shang Ping, signal the guards to step forward and send Shang Ping back to the room.
Some inexplicably touched the place that Soran Edrich had just touched. Looking at the back of the silver-haired prince, Shang Ping narrowed his eyes slightly.
Khanom Fortress
Colonel Edgar jumped off the teleportation bridge and strode towards Commander Terry. Looking at the deep frown of the other side, Colonel Edgar frowned.
"Lord Commander, could it be..."
"No, it's not what you're worried about, on the contrary." Commander Terry raised his head and looked at Colonel Edgar: "The other party agreed to exchange prisoners. But..." But, is this a good thing?
Edgar's eyes suddenly lit up, and Austin and Zuo Jia, who were behind him, couldn't hide their excitement. Compared with Zuo Jia's joy at the return of Lochte, a graduate of the same period, Austin's joy carries something deeper. A fifteen-year-old boy still doesn't know how to conceal himself perfectly. Colonel Edgar Turning his head slightly, he could see the change in Austin's expression in an instant.
very good…
The Colonel pursed his lips, and put down the steaming fire for the time being. We will talk about everything when the baby comes back!
