Qi Zhao also came back to his senses.
"Why are there so few? Last time there were more than 300!"
Fu Yiyi thought that Fu Siyuan had received the news two days ago and had sent people to Insect Star to investigate, so why did Qi Zhao not know anything about this situation?
"No one reports to you?"
Qi Zhao was puzzled.
"What are you reporting?"
Fu Yiyi repeated Fu Siyuan's words to him exactly as they were.
After hearing her words, Qi Zhao's face looked unhappy.
"I will investigate this matter clearly."
Seeing that he looked unhappy, Fu Yiyi didn't want to say anything more. Let's wait until the results of the investigation come out!
It didn't take long before Wei Hong walked in.
"Your Majesty, this is the insect core that was just delivered today."
Qi Zhao didn't plan to look at it either.
"Give it to the Queen."
His tone was not very good, but he just didn't seem very happy. Wei Hong felt a little guilty and walked straight to Fu Yiyi with the box.
"queen."
Fu Yiyi sat on the sofa with her eyes closed and her arms folded. After hearing Wei Hong's voice, she opened her eyes, reached out to take the box, and put it into the space without even looking at it.
Seeing that both of them looked unhappy, Wei Hong slowly left the study, walked to the door of the hall, looked at the guards standing there, and spoke in a low voice.
"Your Majesty and the Queen have had a quarrel?"
The guard shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
Wei Hong rolled his eyes in anger.
"What do you mean by shaking your head? Did they not quarrel, or do you not know?"
"Captain of the Guards, I don't know, and I didn't hear any sound from inside."
The guards didn't dare to speak too loudly, for fear of being heard by the emperor inside. Even the captain of the guards didn't dare to speak loudly, so he didn't dare either.
Wei Hong always felt that something was going to happen, because his eyelids started twitching after he heard what the young guard said.
Qi Zhao began to look through the emails from the previous few days one by one on the dedicated light computer on his desk. He did not find that the person in charge of the stationed starship had sent him any report. After confirming that it was not his negligence, he immediately started to contact Wei Chen.
"His Majesty."
A few days ago, Wei Chen was assigned a new task by him, which was to let him handle all matters related to collecting insect cores from all the insect stars in the entire Star Empire, so as to save him from sighing in front of him all day long, as if he was useless.
"Why are there so few insect cores this time?"
Wei Chen in the holographic projection was stunned. He had clearly reported this matter a few days ago, so why were they asking him again now?
"Your Majesty, I sent you an email five days ago reporting this matter. Would you mind looking for it again?"
Hearing his words, Qi Zhao's eyes gradually turned cold.
"You're sure you sent it to me, aren't you?"
"determine."
Wei Chen didn't know why His Majesty asked this, but he was very sure that he had sent it. In order to prove that he was not lying, he directly took a screenshot of the sending record and showed it to Qi Zhao.
Qi Zhao was confused after seeing the screenshots. A few days ago, because Fu Yiyi suddenly ran away with Fu Ze, he was in a bad mood and asked Wei Hong to read his emails for him. Normally, no one dared to touch his laptop.
"Send that report again."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Wei Chen did not dare to hesitate and immediately resent the email.
Qi Zhao checked it immediately and did not close the video between the two of them.
Since His Majesty the King didn't hang up, he didn't dare to do so and just waited on the other side of the screen.
After reading the content of the email, Qi Zhao realized that this situation happened on the insect planet of the Star Empire earlier than that of the Federation.
"Wei Chen, I will send someone to the Insect Planet where this happened. You will be responsible for contacting them and explaining the situation clearly."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Fu Yiyi was listening not far away and was curious why Wei Hong did this. It didn't make sense. Did he slip his hand?
She made up a very bad excuse for Wei Hong in her mind because she really couldn't think of any other reason.
"Wei Hong, come here!"
Qi Zhao walked to the door of the study and shouted outside the hall.
Wei Hong, who was standing at the door, shuddered all over, feeling something was wrong. His Majesty had never called him like that before, which showed that he was very angry.
After shivering, he quickly stepped inside and took two quick steps towards the study.
"Your Majesty."
Wei Hong stood in front of the desk, with a humble look on his face, but he felt very uneasy inside.
"Tell me, how many emails did you delete?"
Qi Zhao directly attributed the deletion to him, and even asked how many emails he had deleted?
After hearing His Majesty's question, Wei Hong's heart finally settled down.
"Your Majesty, I didn't delete any emails! I just read them for you that day. Besides, why would I delete them? There's no reason!"
Qi Zhao was so angry that he laughed.
"Wei Chen has already shown me all the sending records, and you're still trying to make excuses."
Wei Hong was shocked. He didn't even notice who sent the message at that time.
"Why, trying to think of an excuse?"
Qi Zhao spoke again, touching Wei Hong's heart. He knew this old guy too well. Once he felt guilty, he would not dare to look up at him.
"Your Majesty, I lied. Please punish me."
After saying this, he knelt down on the ground.
Qi Zhao just looked at him like that, with no intention of letting him get up. He just wanted to see what tricks this old guy could come up with.
"Tell me, why did you do this?"
Fu Yiyi sat on the sofa and watched. She was also curious why Wei Hong did this?
"Your Majesty, I just want you to discover Wei Chen's mistakes so that you can transfer him back."
Hearing this excuse, Qi Zhao's forehead veins throbbed.
"Then can you think of a smarter solution?"
Qi Zhao believed what he said, because the Wei family had been responsible for protecting the Qi family since their ancestors, so he had no reason to doubt this old man. He just thought that he was confused and came up with such a lie that would be easily exposed.
"Okay, get up!"
Qi Zhao rubbed his brows. Wei Hong could come up with such a stupid idea. It seemed that he really wanted to retire.
"If you really want to retire now, I'll satisfy you. You don't have to come tomorrow."
Wei Hong was shocked. If it were in the past, he would have happily agreed, but it was not possible now. The ancestor might need him at any time!
He now wanted to slap himself. Why did his hands act faster than his brain and click delete? If the ancestor really wanted his help, he would definitely tell him in advance, so his actions were completely unnecessary.
"Your Majesty, please transfer Wei Chen back to take my place!"
"You still want to make decisions for me? How about you be the king?"
Qi Zhao discovered that the old man Wei Hong was becoming more and more daring and even dared to order him around.
"I dare not. I just thought that after I retire, no one will be able to take care of you."
Wei Hong's voice was sincere and heartfelt, which also indirectly showed that the Wei family must have someone to stay by His Majesty the King's side.
Qi Zhao knew what he meant, but Wei Chen had made it clear that he was unwilling to take over his father's position and he didn't like being trapped in this palace.
Qi Zhao is not an unreasonable person. Besides, it is peacetime now, and he does not need so many people to protect him. What's more, he is now at level 4S, and no one can hurt him except with lethal weapons.
