interstellar fairy tale

Grand Duchess Mansia Edrich paid a rare visit to Empress Dowager Yilan.

Compared with Grand Duchess Mansha Edrich, who advocates simplicity and military style, the empress dowager's official residence always seems too luxurious.The chandelier inlaid with precious stones, the wall decoration surrounded by gold wire and the exquisite tapestries, it can be said that the Empress Dowager Yilan focused almost all women's fantasies in her official residence.The only thing that Grand Duchess Mansha Edrich can praise is probably the number of rare thoroughbred horses on the leader.

"Respected Your Majesty the Empress Dowager, your taste is still the same for decades."

The Grand Duchess Mansia Aldrich was dressed in a wine-colored riding outfit, with a riding whip wrapped with gold threads beating her palms, and her snow-white gloves were spotless.The charming blue eyes and light-colored lips all show the elegance and nobility of the royal family. It is regrettable that the face of the Empress Dowager Yilan has changed since the day the Grand Duchess' flagship arrived at the Star Lord Star. It never cleared up.

"Your Majesty the Grand Duchess, did you come all the way to me to satirize my taste?"

"Why do you think this is sarcasm?" Grand Duchess Mansha Edrich's surprised expression was exaggerated, "This is my sincere appreciation to you."

The corner of Empress Dowager Yilan's mouth twitched, and she quickly raised her folding fan to cover up her almost unconcealable indignation.

Well, thanks... go to %Y^#＄#

"Thank you for your appreciation."

"you are welcome."

The Grand Duchess had a decent smile on her noble face, but the Empress Dowager Yilan found the impulse to bombard Heine III's aircraft with lasers when she was young.

Not far away, an aircraft painted with the empress dowager's family emblem slowed down and landed, and several tall men in imperial military uniforms stepped off the aircraft.The first young man with flaxen hair, wearing the collar badge of the lieutenant colonel, respectfully sent a document to the empress dowager.

Seeing the eye-catching logo on the document, Grand Duchess Mansha Edrich raised her eyebrows, but Empress Dowager Yilan's complexion was a little bad.

"Qisana? How could it be Qisana?"

Empress Dowager Yilan asked with doubts, but she couldn't hear the slightest feeling of nervousness.During Heine III's reign, border rebellions occurred with enough frequency and scale to numb the empress dowager.Since the incompetent Heine III doesn't need much effort, let alone her excellent son?

The empress dowager's confidence in the emperor was just like she firmly believed that Solan Edrich would easily seize the throne and crush Heine III, who tried to break the rules of the royal family, and Princess Aifu, who coveted power, and others.

However, this incident happened in Qisanna, which really surprised Empress Dowager Yilan a little.Just like other lords who heard the news, their first reaction was, could this be a mistake?

Will Aivamoni, the gentle lord who can almost be ridiculed as cowardly, be overthrown by the people?He has the blood of the Qisanna aborigines!

"Your Majesty, aren't you surprised?"

Empress Dowager Yilan handed the document to Edrich Mansia, but the Grand Duchess just glanced at it casually, not even paying as much attention to the contents as the horsewhip she held under her arm.

"There is nothing to be surprised about. It is not that blindly accommodating and moderate governance can satisfy endless ambitions."

The Empress Dowager Yilan frowned, and waved her hand to signal the attendants and soldiers to leave. When the distance between them was not enough to hear their conversation clearly, she asked, "Can you explain?"

"Explanation?" Grand Duchess Edrich Mansha turned her head slightly, "I can only say that although Aiwamoni is indeed a good person, the Mani family is not as loyal and mediocre as they have shown."

"You mean... but how is this possible? Besides, their foundation is in Qisanna. All the leading star government officials were killed in the riots of the people, and Avamoni has been confirmed dead, including his family members! And His younger brother has also committed suicide. The Mani family will not do such a crazy thing. They are suicidal."

"This is just a guess." The Grand Duchess shrugged her shoulders, "However, the sudden disappearance of Kissana's star fleet cannot be explained by a simple civil riot. Unless the entire fleet is wiped out or a collective mutiny , The former is a joke, while the latter shows that behind this Qisanna incident, there must be shadows of several families, and the Mani family is also suspected, and they cannot completely stay out of it!"

Empress Dowager Yilan was silent. As an empress dowager who was born in an old-fashioned aristocratic family in the empire, she was too aware of the turmoil and disaster that would be brought about once a crazy thought occurred to the family that had been passed down from generation to generation.Solan II's governance methods have always been harsh, and the empress dowager does not want the Qisanna incident to be as the Grand Duchess said, otherwise, the Mani family must not be involved.

Thinking of this, Empress Dowager Yilan looked at Grand Duchess Mansha Edrich with complicated eyes, "Your Excellency, you are just guessing."

"Your Majesty the Empress Dowager, have you not forgotten the Hesha and Adler families back then? The same star-leading aborigines family, also the lords who have continued for hundreds of generations, the empire gave them glory and wealth, and what they returned was breaking their promises Ambition and blood. So once it is destroyed, it is fate. Now the lord of the Deco galaxy is the queen of the empire, and the Namib galaxy is already a complete death star. Speaking of it," Grand Duchess Mansha Aldrich paused, meaning Carefully stroking the golden thread wrapped around the horsewhip, he said in a more gentle tone: "Before you married into the royal family, your surname was Gray, right? It seems that there is an important person in your family with a maiden surname, Is it Mani?"

Empress Dowager Yilan's gaze sharpened, piercing towards Grand Duchess Edrich Mansia like a needle.The attendants not far away seemed to have noticed the tense atmosphere between the Empress Dowager and the Grand Duchess, and wanted to come over, but were stopped by the attendants of the Grand Duchess.Compared with the attendants of the Empress Dowager Yilan, the attendants of the Grand Duchess are more like battle-tested soldiers than young nobles from the court.

"Please don't get me wrong." Grand Duchess Mansha Edrich said with a smile: "I'm not doubting anything, just reminding you."

Just a reminder?

"It's not necessary! I swore in the temple that even if I have selfish intentions to take care of the family, I will never do anything that endangers the emperor's rule."

Grand Duchess Mansha Edrich nodded, of course she believed in the Empress Dowager.Although Yilan cannot be called a successful queen, he is a qualified mother.No one would doubt her loyal and selfless love for the emperor.But her family, not necessarily.

"Your Majesty the Empress Dowager, please don't doubt my intentions. I just hope that you will not be affected by this incident."

Leaving this rather meaningful words, Grand Duchess Manxia Edrich left the Empress Dowager to lead the star that day.The Empress Dowager Yilan was angry, but she did not lose her mind. After the Grand Duchess left, the Empress Dowager immediately contacted Semtor, the leader of the Gray family.

Lord Lysgrey of Semtor is still at the Lords' Council in the Imperial capital.According to the laws of the empire, the empress dowager was not allowed to leave the star leader unless necessary, which made the empress dowager Yilan completely forget about the annual lord meeting, and had to wait until Reese returned to Semtor.

Imperial capital, Ivanhof

The annual lord meeting is lengthy and tedious. The empire’s territory continues to expand, and more and more galaxies are occupied and developed. The ever-increasing number of seats in the meeting hall means that each meeting needs to extend the time.Compared with government affairs and military meetings, this kind of routine lord meeting is even more boring.

Soran Edrich leaned back on the high-backed chair, staring blankly at Gerakame who had been talking non-stop for more than ten minutes.The lord of three small galaxies, with a short, fat body and a simple and honest face, was extremely disproportionate to his eloquence.However, it is undeniable that he is still a qualified galaxy lord, and the tax paid to the Ministry of Finance every year is not inferior to any lord with the same number of star leaders.

However, he was too wordy.

Soran Aldrich kept restraining the idea of ​​blasting this foaming guy with a laser gun, and tried his best to appear to be listening to his every word seriously.As everyone knows, the emperor's rare sympathy made Gerakame even more excited, so that today's meeting was extended for a full hour because he was alone.

The emperor was furious, but there was nothing he could do.

Even if he wants to be a qualified tyrant, he must have a stage for him to perform.

It's not difficult to kill Gerakame on the spot, but what's the reason?Although the tyrant didn't need a reason to kill, Soran Edrich didn't want to put a lord to death just because he was too verbose.Although it would make his ears a lot easier.

Harlan Edrich was sitting very close to the emperor. Obviously, the admiral who was born in the royal family also began to be tormented by this tedious meeting and wanted to yawn.It could be seen that the emperor was on the verge of eruption, and Harlan looked at Jerocamme, who was still unconscious, almost with pity. He really didn't understand, how many minutes could this man continue to say, just to praise him?Could it be that the taxes he handed in were all obtained through lip service?

Admiral Ida and Admiral Metz sat upright, fully demonstrating the rigor and self-discipline of a soldier.But if you look closely, you will find that Admiral Ida can still hear Gerakame's speech clearly, while Admiral Metz has already lost his mind.

Finally, Gerakame's speech came to an end, he saluted the emperor respectfully, and sat down.Suddenly, the atmosphere in the meeting hall was shocked.It turns out that everyone knows that after the speeches of some lords, the process of the meeting will be much faster.

However, just when everyone thinks that as long as the emperor makes a symbolic summary, the lords can go back to their respective homes, they are very wrong!

Lord Gerakame stood up again!

He opened his mouth and started talking again!

This terrible fighting power!

Who can stop him? !

The entire universe can't stop the dreaded Gerocame!

Shang Ping, who saw the entire meeting through the video device, almost fell on the carpet with a smile. Most of these lords who came from military and noble families had wonderful expressions.They stared at Jerokame in disbelief, pursed their lips angrily, as if saying, "Who can shoot this guy?!"

"My God, this is definitely a talent!"

Shang Ping sat up while wiping the tears from his laughter, ignoring all the lords, and Soran Edrich's face was also a little ugly.At this moment, the depression of being rejected by the emperor was all swept away.Although the emperor did not allow him to lead the army, it was worth the money to see this scene.

"Well, in order to avoid bloodshed and for the peace of the universe!" Shang Ping stood up and said in a very serious tone: "I must invite His Majesty the Emperor to dinner!"

The court attendant who was pushing the door and walking in froze in place, speechless.

It seems that the most powerful is Her Majesty the Queen...
