interstellar fairy tale

Lieutenant General Metz was full of displeasure, and while striding forward, he took off his gloves and threw them to the attendant.

He was supposed to go to the frontier planet to suppress the rebellion. The rebellion of the two galaxies was not worth mentioning in the eyes of the young generals of the empire.Those two governors, whose heads were stuffed with wine and women, organized a rebel army with ridiculously low combat effectiveness.It was supported under the banner of liberating the people of the planet and freeing them from the heavy taxation of the empire.As everyone knows, 80.00% of the heavy taxes of these galaxies are collected by the governor without authorization.These two governors took advantage of the change of imperial power to take risks, nothing more than worrying that Soran Edrich would investigate their greed. Heine III may not care about these, but Soran Edrich does not care about this behavior. Abhorred.

Just before departure, news came from the border that the rebel army had been suppressed!The cruise fleet on the border discovered this group of rabble, and after massacring most of them on the charge of disturbing border security, they arrested the rest!These fleets composed of alien system personnel recruited by the empire can only be regarded as second-rate in combat effectiveness, but they snatched the honor of countering the rebellion from the hands of Lieutenant General Metz.If it was Admiral Date, he would not care about these things. The calm admiral only focused on the result. No matter who he was, he would become a stepping stone to the throne of Soran Edrich.After all, Lieutenant General Metz is young and vigorous.

The attendant behind Metz regretted it unceasingly. If he knew in advance that this lord was in such a bad mood, he would definitely hide away before the aircraft landed.

Shang Jing lay quietly in the grass, watching the two people keep walking away. He had seen Lieutenant General Metz before, and that not-so-familiar face reminded him of some bad memories. It's so remote, why would anyone pass by?

Annoyed, Shang Ping slowly moved his already stiff body, and maintained a posture for a long time, his waist and arms felt numb.

Biting his lip, Shang Ping moved his fingers, and a voice suddenly entered his ears.

"who are you?"

The voice came from behind, so close that Shang Ping could fully confirm that the person he was asking was himself.

damn it!

Shang Ping couldn't convince himself to be an ostrich, so he turned around slowly, and a tall man stood behind him, wearing a military uniform slightly different from that of the soldiers of the Golden Empire. Black boots wrapped his slender and straight legs, and the ankles were covered with black boots. It is a golden badge.The man squatted down, touched the ground with one knee, and put his hand on Shang Ping's chin, "You are not from the Golden Empire, who are you?"

Shang Ping was stunned. Obviously, the man in front of him was definitely not from the Golden Empire.His appearance, accent and tone of voice made Shang Ping suddenly have a ridiculous idea.

"I am a Marsian, a Marsian from the Muse galaxy. You are not from this empire either."

Shang Ping's tone was affirmative, and the other party was still expressionless, looking straight into Shang Ping's eyes, like glass balls, without the slightest emotion.

"I'm……"

"Lieutenant Colonel Alfred!"

The man's words were interrupted, and another equally tall soldier came over. He also looked very different from the people in the Golden Empire. His expressionless face and voice sounded mechanical.

"Lieutenant Colonel, the entire fleet has arrived, and the superior has summoned you."

"kindness."

Lieutenant Colonel Elfy nodded, let go of Shang Ping's chin, then untied his coat, covered Shang Ping's body, and said in a low voice, "Cherry, take him away."

"Wait!" Shang Ping grabbed El, "You don't doubt me?"

"Suspect."

"Then why help me?"

"intuition."

Elfy stood up, and Cherry also hugged Shangping, who was wrapped in Elfy's coat, horizontally. This place is not far from their aircraft, and it will hardly attract attention when walking over.

Shang Ping was full of doubts until he entered the aircraft and was put down by Qieri. Instead of being solved, the doubts in his heart seemed to be covered with a layer of fog.This made him completely ignore the fact that he was carried on the flying machine.

As a means of transportation, the aircraft of the Golden Empire is similar to Mars's land vehicle. The difference is that there are three laser cannons installed at the front of the aircraft and two photon machine guns on the left and right sides.

The cockpit of the aircraft is connected with the passenger seat, and there is only a transparent door in the middle. Sitting in the seat, it is easy to see every move in the cockpit.

Shang Ping was still wrapped in Elfy's overcoat, which made him at least feel a little bit of warmth.Shang Ping can be sure that the few people in the aircraft, whoever he sees, will definitely not be people from the Golden Empire. The appearance of these people and the habit of operating the aircraft are very similar to the Seth people in Shang Ping's memory.But their cold expressions and mechanical movements made Shang Ping not so sure about his guess.

"Please use."

Cherry put a cup of hot drink and a plate of snacks in front of Shangping. Shangping, who hadn't had a drop of water for almost 48 hours, made an honest sound from his stomach, and picked up the cup with a blushing face. Yes, a drink similar to hot cocoa, with a smooth entrance, picked up a piece of dessert and took a bite, couldn't help but let out a sigh, Shang Ping never knew that he would find sweets so delicious.

In a few minutes, Shang Ping swept away the food in front of him, feeling a little embarrassed, Cheri turned around and put a plate of fruit in front of him, as if by magic.

"Thank you."

"Need not."

"Captain Cherry, the Lieutenant Colonel is back."

"Open the hatch."

Captain Cherry didn't pay any attention to Shang Ping, or rather, from the beginning to the end, Cherry only thought that Shang Ping was an item picked up by Lieutenant Colonel Elfy and he didn't know what to do with it.

These survivors of the Fourth Fleet of the former Republic of Seth, in a sense, can no longer be called complete human beings. They are clones grown from culture vessels. There are 680 people.Together with some personnel from the Empire's frontier planets, they formed the Empire's Frontier Cruiser Fleet.Lieutenant Colonel Erfei was appointed as the commander of this fleet by virtue of his excellent commanding ability and his previous outstanding performance in the Royce artificial celestial body battle. He was also the hero of the border counter-insurgency not long ago. credit.

Shang Ping doesn't know what purpose Elfi is helping him, and he doesn't know what is good or bad. His greatest hope at the moment is that the lieutenant colonel can really take him out of the palace.This empire is huge enough that as long as he can leave the palace, Shang Ping can find a place to hide himself from being discovered, and then find a way to contact Zhou Ting.Since he was not killed, he was definitely alive that week.Shang Ping firmly believed.

Lieutenant Colonel Erfei sat on the command chair and ordered to return to the station. Shang Ping finally asked, "Excuse me, can you put me down after leaving the palace?"

"No."

Erfei rejected Shang Ping's request without hesitation, but unexpectedly gave Shang Ping an explanation.

"Once the aircraft leaves the palace, it is not allowed to stop until it leaves the central area of ​​the capital."

"why?"

"The central area is the noble area."

Elfy's words were concise, Shangping nodded, class.

"Then, tell me, are you people from Seth? It's the Republic of Seth from the Muse galaxy."

Seth?

Seth people?

Lieutenant Colonel Elfy stood up and walked to the console, "If you think it is, then so be it. However, we are now soldiers of the Golden Empire." More precisely, it is a tool for war.

Shang Ping stopped talking, and no one in the aircraft made a sound.

Four hours later, the aircraft flew away from the imperial palace and flew over the central area of ​​the imperial capital. Shang Ping looked at the dreamlike, luxurious and beautiful city below through the window of the aircraft, and couldn't help but think of an old saying: People love roses , but always forget the thorns under the petals.

Whether, the more beautiful, the more dangerous?Just like this beautiful city, but the most aggressive life in the universe lives?

The Ivan Summer Palace was brightly lit, the royal family and nobles wore fragrant clothes, wine glasses collided with each other, and military officers and civil servants were clearly separated, but this did not prevent laughter and joy from filling the entire palace.When everyone knew that His Majesty the new Emperor would attend tonight's banquet, the atmosphere reached a climax. The celebration had lasted for nearly half a month, and it was drawing to a close. The attendance was the result of a compromise with Empress Dowager Yilan.

The empress dowager no longer asked the emperor whether he would find a queen or concubine in the near future, and the new emperor needed to show up at the celebration banquet, at least, so that the royal family and nobles could save face after returning to the star.

If His Majesty the Emperor does not appear at his coronation ceremony, it will be regarded as dissatisfaction or contempt for the nobles, which will have more or less impact on Soran Edrich's future ruling career.

Perhaps Soran Edrich didn't care about these things, but Queen Yilan hoped that her son could be perfect, even though Soran Edrich refused to invite any noble ladies to dance.

The wait was always long, and when Soran Edrich appeared in the banquet hall wearing a silver and gold dress, cheers of "Long live the emperor!" resounded throughout the Ivan Palace.

With long silver hair, blue eyes, and impeccable beauty, Solan Aldrich is like the incarnation praised by the gods in ancient mythology. He is dignified, well-behaved, and the smile on his face is just right.However, everyone present also knew that when the new emperor stepped onto the battleship and stood in front of the entire army, all the luxury would be reduced to shadows.Blood and conquest are the essence of this beautiful young man!It is also the foundation of the Edrich family that has remained unchanged for thousands of years.

A golden wagtail flew over the sky above Ivan's Summer Palace, and its crisp cry tore through the night sky, but was obliterated by music and laughter, and became invisible.
