interstellar fairy tale

What's it like to be the father-in-law of the ruler of the most powerful empire in the universe?

One day, Shangyu was sitting in the office, looking at the invitation card in front of him, he couldn't help sighing.From his tone, I can't feel any joy at all, and of course, there is no sadness, only a strange emotion that cannot be explained clearly.

"Why do I feel similar to marrying a daughter when my son gets married?"

The occasional inconsistency of goodwill has no effect on Edgar at this time.The major general, who had already taken off his military uniform and put the epaulettes and collar badges in a box for collection, didn't think that Shangyu was seriously asking him this question, he was most likely talking to himself.Even if this kind of soliloquy makes the listener dumbfounded.

"Edgar, you can't ignore me!" Shangyu complained with a kind of schadenfreude, "Don't forget, Shangping is also your son. Now, he is going to 'marry'. Don't you feel it? ?”

"En." Edgar nodded, still with a calm expression, "So what? Should I be like you?"

Edgar's tone was calm with a hint of harmless disdain, and Goodwill was choked.

"Are you bored recently?" Edgar frowned slightly, wary of any surprise words from Shangyu.In fact, while saying the word "boring", Edgar's eyes have already landed on the thick stack of documents on Shangyu's desk.These are all tasks that have yet to be dealt with, but Shangyu, the governor of the business capital, still has the time to think about things?

Goodwill shrugged his shoulders indifferently. He had already reached an agreement with the emperor. After the wedding between the emperor and Shang Ping, the 670th Bahuoxing would still maintain its apparent independence. Shangping.In a sense, as long as Soran Edrich's successor will not try to destroy this man-made celestial body in a feverish manner, there will be no threat to the existence of the imperial fleet in the empire.Of course, this agreement is under the table.

"Speaking of which, Edgar, do you really plan to stay in Shangdu?"

"That's right." Edgar leaned on the sofa, crossing his long legs leisurely, "I don't plan to go back to the army anymore. In this case, staying here is the best choice."

"Is this your truth?"

"of course."

"Okay." Shangyu nodded, "However, the youngest son of the South family..."

"Goodwill, you promised me, and you promised your son!"

"Don't be so nervous, Edgar, I won't break my promise." Goodwill smiled and propped his chin with one hand, "However, this little Sous has been moving a lot recently. He once tried to get on the ore transport ship headed to the Muse galaxy .”

"Didn't you tell him that you would send him back to Mars?"

"No."

"..."

"Okay, don't stare at me. When the baby's wedding is over, I will send him back. Now Mars is reforming, and the country is in chaos. As a member of the South family, he will only add to the chaos when he goes back."

"Goodwill, are you really goodwill?"

"Nonsense! Even if you want to call me Romeo, you will never be Juliet!" Goodyu stood up and stretched his waist, "But I think, when we return from the capital of the empire, maybe this blond boy has succeeded gone?"

we?

Edgar paused, looked at Shangyu, "It's better not what I thought."

"That's it," Shangyu smiled viciously, "Dear Edgar, don't you want to attend the baby's wedding? This invitation can be 'brought with'."

"If it's a wedding, sure. But damn it, you're not allowed to wear dresses!"

"Well, if this is your request, I will seriously consider it." Shangyu held his chin in embarrassment, and then his eyes lit up, and he clenched his fist with his right hand and tapped the palm of his left hand, "Why don't you wear it this time?"

Edgar's face darkened.

Should he beat him up?Or just kill him?Either way, Edgar refuses to admit that he and the creature in front of him were once best friends!

Regardless of whether Shang Ping's father and adoptive father have discussed it or not, the wedding date is still getting closer day by day.

On January [-], [-] in the Milky Way Calendar, Soran Edrich ushered in the second New Year after he became Soran II. A distant bell rang in the imperial capital, Ivan's Summer Palace, like an ancient universe. The music sung everywhere is heavy, but not dull, one after another, impacting the soul of the listener.

Members of the royal family and noble lords who arrived in the capital one after another not long ago were not surprised by the ringing of the bell.The bell in the Ivanhof is a symbol of the royal family.Ringing the bell of the empire just to marry the imperial concubine is not a bad thing, although it is a bit of a fuss.After all, this is the first time that Solan II married the imperial concubine.Compared with the previous imperial rulers who had wives and concubines in groups during the prince's period, Solan II's cleanliness seemed a bit different.Fortunately, this situation is over. The bell in Ivan's summer palace announces that the emperor has ended his bachelor life.

However, when the bell continued to ring, the panic began to spread.People who are familiar with the imperial calendar and royal customs count silently in their hearts until the bell stops abruptly after a certain number. Unbelievable is no longer enough to express their feelings at the moment.

99? !

This is the honor of the queen of the empire!

"How is this going?!"

The aristocratic lords who came to the emperor's wedding couldn't explain how they felt, and didn't know what to do.Are you going to question the emperor?Those who participated in the emperor's engagement banquet recalled that the emperor never explicitly stated whether he was marrying a concubine or a queen!But everyone preconceived that a commoner from an alien system can only become a concubine!

It is impossible to turn back time, and Soran II is not an emperor who will compromise on his marriage.What's more, the moment the bell of the empire rang, everything was already a foregone conclusion.

"Empire, there will be a queen."

Grand Duchess Mansia Edrich wore a bright red royal dress inlaid with golden lace, with gold and silver tassels hanging from the ribbon on her chest. Except for a tail ring engraved with the royal emblem and a ruby ​​earring hanging down her neck, her whole body, No other frills.

The appearance of the Grand Duchess represents the attitude of the vast majority of royal family members.This includes the Empress Dowager Yilan.Since the emperor had a conversation with the empress dowager, the empress dowager no longer dictated to the emperor's marriage. Perhaps she also knew that no matter what attitude she took, it would not affect the emperor's final decision.However, the young members of the royal family headed by Harlan Edrich never expressed doubts about the emperor's decision.They are loyal to the surname Edrich, and loyal to Soran II.

The imperial prime minister, Earl Reichardt, and a group of cabinet ministers, although surprised, would not raise objections to the emperor's decision at this moment, even though most of their families had their own plans.We are all smart people, and each other can understand what to do at this moment.

As for other nobles and galaxy lords, they have no other choice but to accept and be silent.

Of course, there are also some guys who can't see the situation clearly, such as Baron Wilder and others.Meyer, the chief of the capital's security forces, would be happy to invite these fat-brained aristocrats to the security department for afternoon tea.In Meyer's eyes, they are just ridiculous clowns, and perhaps in the eyes of most people, they are.

As a result, the uproar that should have been caused disappeared without a trace.

In Ivan's summer palace, the protagonist of this incident does not know how the dark tide is raging outside. He is now worrying about the luxury of the dress and the jewelry and gemstones that must be worn.

"Do you have to dress like this?"

Shang Ping stood helplessly in front of the full-length mirror, and now he only prayed that the temperature would not be too high tomorrow.Knowing that she was going to wear this jewel-like dress, sit in the wedding car, pass through the capital, and then return to the palace, all the anxiety and uneasiness before the wedding were swept away.He was now racking his brains on how to remove a few gemstones from the gown, and how to ignore the pile of jewelry held by the attendants.

Should he be thankful that this is a dress and not a skirt?

Compared with the military uniform that he wore for the banquet before, it was nothing compared to this.

"Your Excellency, this is already the fourth revision."

The court etiquette officer stood aside expressionlessly, and Shang Ping shivered involuntarily. For some reason, he did hear a bit of accusation from this seemingly simple statement.God knows, he just didn't want to show off in a suit of gems.

In the end, Shang Ping still failed to take off any of the gemstones on the dress, and was even forced to wear blue gemstone earrings and gold earrings.Looking at the person in the mirror, Shang Ping twitched his mouth, should he be glad that at least Soran Edrich would hang a body of gems with him?

"What are you thinking about?"

At some point, Soran Edrich stood behind Shang Ping, gently stroking Shang Ping's black hair hanging down his ear, as if amused by Shang Ping's helplessness.Different from Shangping's pure silver dress, Solan Edrich's silver dress has golden trim and patterns, the badge on the chest and the golden ribbon, which complement the emperor's silver hair and blue eyes, except for the right ear The last one is a half-moon earring inlaid with gems and broken diamonds, and the long silver hair is also tied up with a gold headband, and the hair is also dotted with gems and pearls strung with silver chains.

Well, looking at such an emperor, Shangping is in balance.

Solan Edrich chuckled, and a light kiss landed on the side of Shang Ping's face, "You are so beautiful."

very beautiful?Compared with Soran Edrich, who can be worthy of the word "beautiful"?

However, looking at the corners of the emperor's mouth curled up, Shang Ping was a little lost in spite of his slander.Such a gorgeous dress, like a peacock spreading its tail, can still be such a beautiful man, so it will become his?

Touching his heart, and holding Soran Edrich's snow-white gloved hand, Shang Ping smiled involuntarily.This feeling is really not bad.

The emperor let Shang Ping lead him, hugged Shang Ping, his chin lightly rubbed against Shang Ping's cheek, and whispered with a smile, "After tomorrow, you will be mine..."

"You are mine too, Your Majesty."

Hearing Shang Ping's answer, the smile in Soran Edrich's eyes deepened.

This is his queen, and it can only be his.
