interstellar fairy tale

Golden Empire Summer Palace

Empress Yilan of the Empire has recently changed her low-key attitude in the past, and has repeatedly summoned the royal family's grand duchess and wives as well as powerful figures in the military and political circles and their families in the past few days.It is worth mentioning that, in exchange for the loyalty and support of these real power figures in the Golden Empire, Queen Yilan conveyed a suggestive message to the courtiers and royal princes who had young girls in the family with an ambiguous attitude.This does not mean that there will be an extra noble mistress in the palace of the first prince Solan Edrich, but, at least, after Heine III, the throne of the emperor will be vacant next to the throne of the queen Come to think of it, this is a very tempting hint, seemingly meaningless on the surface, but it has already shaken the belief of some of the courtiers who are still loyal to Heine III.

Be loyal to Heine III, whose prestige and power are beginning to decline, or pin the family's future on the next emperor of the empire?

The weights at both ends of the balance began to increase and decrease significantly, at least, more and more people were leaning towards the first prince of the empire, Solan Edrich.

Of course, the actions of Queen Yilan, the noble duke, and the powerful ministers and generals still cannot escape the eyes of Heine III. His Majesty the Emperor will always have a way to know how his courtiers and wives trampled his prestige and dignity on the ground behind his back. mocked.However, at this moment, Heine III can do nothing, neither can drive his wife back from the summer palace to the star, nor can he put the courtiers who have betrayed him into the cosmic prison or exile because of unfounded speculation. Frontier is a star.

Grand Princess Aifu seemed completely unaware that His Majesty the Emperor she relied on was beginning to lose power in his hands. The aging of the Emperor showed that it was not just that his tall body gradually began to slump.This plump and charming woman, leaning on the fabric sofa embroidered with roses, crocheting lace, looked at her son with a smile, the illegitimate son who had just been recognized by His Majesty the emperor, Delan Edrich, speaking in a childish voice , reciting a love poem that has been passed down in the empire for thousands of years.

"...Rose, dew! A blond girl with green eyes full of starlight, lips like rose petals, singing ancient songs, sending her lover to the battlefield...the glory of a warrior, the tears of a maiden, the glory of the Golden Empire... ..."

The poem written thousands of years ago expresses the cruelest tragedy with the most beautiful emotion.

"……His Majesty?"

Heine III stood outside the door at some point, pushed the door open, and the warmth of the room made him mistakenly think that he was not the emperor of the empire, but just an ordinary man, and in front of him were his wife and his child...

However, in the surprised eyes of Princess Aifu and the slightly excited voice, this fantasy was shattered like a mirage...

In the end, it's just a wish.

Heine III buried his sigh in his heart, looked at the Grand Princess Aifu who raised her skirt and walked towards him, but in his mind, he thought of his wife Yiyi who was trying her best to drive him off the emperor's throne in the summer palace. orchid.Perhaps, these two women once loved him, and he used to be their god, but now, their love has long been involved in the vortex of power and no longer exists.

The door of the room was closed behind Heine III, and His Majesty the Emperor, who had begun to age, began to build a beautiful dream made of escape and powerlessness in this small palace.

In the summer palace, Queen Yilan was not angry at Heine III's behavior of leaving the palace for another palace again.

"Your Majesty, this is already the third time."

"kindness?"

"This is already the third time this week! How could His Majesty the Emperor behave so indiscreetly!"

The Duke of York's gray beard and the corners of his mouth trembling due to anger once again showed that this old man who is highly respected in the royal family is already very dissatisfied with Heine III. This result is what Yilan is happy to see, although it also comes from a certain In this way, it shows how failed she is as a wife.

However, Yilan smiled slightly, using the most appropriate language and the most elegant manners to appease the anger of the Duke of York. Now she does not need to be a qualified wife, she only needs to be an elegant woman in the eyes of the imperial family and powerful officials. A decent queen, and more importantly, she must be everything a mother can be.

She wanted to protect her child, although Yilan knew from the very beginning that her proud son didn't need her own protection, but she was a mother, and there were some things she had to do!At least, until her son ascends the imperial throne, there cannot be a single mistake.

After sending the Duke of York away, Queen Yilan not surprisingly once again conveyed the current situation of the empire to the distant border galaxy in detail.Soran Edrich has been stationed outside for a long time, and Her Majesty the Queen is happy to see Soran Edrich firmly controlling the army in his own hands. However, as the first prince of the empire and the future heir to the throne, Soran Edrich cannot Perpetually hovering outside the hierarchy of power, he has responsibilities that he must fulfill.

When receiving the message from Queen Yilan from the empire, Solan Edrich stared blankly at Shang Ping, who was barely able to stand up, clamped the boy's chin with one hand, and rubbed the creamy skin with his fingertips. The red blood stained by the fingertips wiped an obvious mark on the lips.Perhaps the black-haired boy should be afraid, but those black eyes were surprisingly calm, as if the touch across his face was just an illusion, and his aching ribs were just an illusion.

Giovanna was not at all surprised that Soran Edrich would arrive so quickly, he was just a little surprised that His Highness the First Prince was obviously betting on the two prisoners of war—no, maybe it should be said that he was on the black-haired prisoner of war. It's not just that dignity and domain are not allowed to be violated.

Soran Edrich didn't care about Giovanna's gloomy expression, and he wasn't very interested in Queen Yilan's message.Although it was far away at the border, the capital of the empire, or should I say the summer palace, every move of the great emperor would be regularly summoned and reported to him.Soran Edrich even had some kind of absurd idea, was it because his communication channel was discovered by the emperor, so the great Heine III would make such a reckless and absurd move?

Admit an illegitimate child, and push this illegitimate child in front of the imperial family and powerful officials, challenging the system that the empire has passed down for thousands of years.

Should the man he called father be stupid?Or should we praise the man for his courage?

And his mother, apparently, has already begun to do whatever it takes to overthrow his father.Thinking of the wealthy daughters of the empire that Queen Yilan had said before, Soran Edrich frowned involuntarily. Looking at Shang Ping, who was pale and dripping cold sweat, he remembered the report sent back by the previous patrol fleet, and connected Thinking of the boy's past and the message Novi sent back from the Muse galaxy, Soran Edrich pursed his lips.

After thinking for a moment, Soran Edrich finally removed his hand from Shang Ping's chin, but then made a move that made everyone dumbfounded.

The noble first prince of the Golden Empire, Solan Edrich, actually hugged a prisoner of war who couldn't stand still in his arms!

Shang Ping was really surprised this time, his eyes widened, and under the gaze of Lochte with a hellish expression, he was carried out of the cell by Soran Edrich.
