After forming a covenant with the interstellar bosses

He was a mermaid after all. As a human, his willingness to betray the mermaids was certainly a good thing, but for Wu Lingjiu, what would he do after betraying his own people? Once discovered, the mermaids would no longer accept him, and the humans would no longer treat him as one of their own.

Just looking at the attacks and insults on the Internet these days about the fact that Tang Zhishu had alien beast genes in his body, which almost exceeded the criticism of Tang Gengyao and the opposition to the royal male members monopolizing the appeaser, she knew that it was impossible.

Monsters and humans are natural enemies. They have been hostile to each other for too long and have accumulated countless blood debts with each other, so it is impossible for them to make peace.

When he was a child, he watched his mother being strangled to death by his father. When he grew up, his father only wanted to use his abilities. Coupled with his almost paranoid dependence on Song Yu, his growth experience must have been difficult.

Song Yu couldn't bear to use him.

"Okay, now, what you have to do for me is to stay in the mermaid tribe like before and don't get caught." Song Yu said, "If there's anything serious, you can tell me quietly, but don't act rashly. Do you understand?"

Not selling him out directly to the human army was a bit of mercy from Song Yu.

"Okay," Wu Lingjiu agreed, "Sister, can you come and see me more often? We are a team now."

"I'll come to see you every week from now on, but if something happens with the mermaid, you can't delay it just to see me, okay?"

Wu Lingjiu nodded.

Song Yu left the underground prison cell with a heavy heart. She was very scared. She was afraid that Wu Lingjiu would be discovered by humans, and that his second heart would be discovered by mermaids. She was even more afraid that she was no longer just an enemy to him.

Time seemed to pass by like this. For a long time, the number of strange beasts increased, and news of insufficient combat power was reported several times in the Fourth Military Region. But Wu Lingjiu came every week, and Song Yu would also find time to see him and listen to him talk about the mermaid tribe.

Tang Zhishu has been under house arrest in Bai Ze Palace. Song Yu would go to Bai Ze Palace whenever he had a holiday. For more than a month, he didn't go out to play at all, and spent as much time as possible in Bai Ze Palace.

Princess Luo Er also came to see Tang Zhishu several times, and Princess Lingshan and Tang Zhilian also came.

Public opposition to the royal family, especially the privileges granted to male royal partners, grew louder and louder, and Prince Linyuan's actions thoroughly enraged them. Amidst this wave of public outcry, Tang Zhilian and Mu Tiantian struck a deal: Mu Tiantian would be the head of the family, and Tang Zhilian would have the same rights as the second-in-command, but he couldn't prevent her from finding new partners.

Her Majesty the Queen stipulated that all future princes must enter into a contract according to this agreement and that they would no longer be allowed to become heads of families like their female counterparts.

After the agreement was signed, Tang Gengxu was the first to take the lead and comply with the agreement, giving the position of head of the family to his princess, but the other married princes did not express any opinion.

Despite this, the public anger has subsided a lot, and everyone has no objection to royal men having more privileges.

Tang Zhishu was very happy about this, as what he wanted to do finally came true.

Song Yu also visited the two Royal Guards who had been injured by Tang Zhishu on his behalf. One of them had already fully recovered and returned to the Royal Guard, while the other's arm was completely irreparable and had to be replaced with a mechanical arm.

Song Yu compensated him with a large sum of money. Although the Royal Guards were all from aristocrats and had knighthoods, they were not short of money. However, after receiving the money, he still agreed to sign the letter of understanding. Part of the reason was for the money, and the other part was because he felt that His Highness Boya's loss of control at that time was understandable.

On the last day before the end-of-term exam week, on a snowy evening, Her Majesty the Queen came to see Tang Zhishu in person.

Song Yu met Her Majesty the Queen with him.

"Zhishu, regarding the matter of killing Tang Gengyao, I can privately give you two choices." In the tall main hall of Bai Ze Palace, Her Majesty remained aloft, her emotions hidden in her wide and gorgeous robes. "One is to be stripped of your princely title and become an ordinary person. Everything you have gained from your princely title will be taken back, and you will no longer belong to the royal family. The other is to retain your princely title and serve as a private in the Fourth Military Region. While serving as a private, you will not receive the treatment of a prince, but as long as you can rank above private, you can return."

Song Yu blurted out without even thinking, "Choose the first one."

Tang Zhishu's fighting ability is not weak, but he is tired of fighting. He cannot control the form of Qiongqi at all. Once he is caught up in the killing, it is easy to lose control. Going to the Fourth Military Region as a private would probably be more painful than taking his life.

"No," Tang Zhishu, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke, "Mother, Patriarch, I want to choose the second one."

"No! Why would you want to be a private? It's hard, tiring, and dangerous. Is the title of prince so important?" She held Tang Zhishu's hand, as if that could stop him. "Even if you're not a prince, you can do anything with your S-rank. Even if I don't do anything, I can still take care of you for the rest of your life."

Hearing the last sentence, Tang Zhishu smiled and said, "Master, believe me, I can do it."

"I know you can do it, but why do you want to do it? Why do you want to suffer so much? If you just want to do something for the battle on the front lines, I can go. Jiang Yan is still reluctant to go, and Sha Lang can go too, but you..."

"Master, please believe me. I have my reasons. Please promise me this time."

Tang Zhishu's attitude was very firm. Song Yu held his hand and although he was very reluctant, he still respected his decision.

"Okay, tomorrow, I will announce the result, and then you won't be able to return to Bai Ze Palace."

After the Queen left, Song Yu lightly punched Tang Zhishu on the shoulder. "Why did you suffer that? Is the title of prince more important than your life?"

Tang Zhishu is not the kind of gangster. He is gentle and has a psychological trauma from fighting on the battlefield. She couldn't understand why he had to go, but she didn't have time to be awkward with Tang Zhishu.

Tang Zhishu took two steps back and knelt in front of Song Yu.

"What are you doing?" Song Yu hurried to help him.

Tang Zhishu just shook his head and avoided Li Songyu's hand that was helping him up. He didn't mind kneeling in the main hall of Bai Ze Palace. Although the servants were dismissed, it was not a private place after all.

"Master, I'm sorry."

Song Yu was still puzzled.

"The alien beasts are getting closer and closer. With the war imminent, the Fourth Military Region's information blockade is becoming increasingly strict. I guess even my mother is unable to learn a lot of inside information."

Song Yu was thoughtful. "She...she wants to arrange for a member of the royal family to enter the Fourth Military Region?"

Tang Zhishu nodded, thankful that his patriarch was also very smart. "Killing Tang Gengyao isn't that serious. My mother wanted to plant a spy in the Fourth Military Region, but it's not easy to send someone directly to a key position. So she used this incident as an excuse to send me to the Fourth Military Region."

"But what news can a private bring her?"

"But I'm also S-rank, the God of War of the First Military District back then. I think she thought I'd be able to quickly shed my status as a private and then naturally stay in the Fourth Military District."

"What is she going to do, Your Majesty?"

Is he going to restore the imperial power? This absurd thought flashed through Song Yu's mind.
