you are my glory

The grand duke's funeral was scheduled to take place a week after the military exercise.

At that time, there were still about three months before the end of the military exercise.

The members of the Li family set off after the funeral was agreed upon.It took more than two months from departure to finding the location of Olaf's troops.

In the past two months, the political struggle in the imperial capital has gradually escalated, and in the end, it seems that it has become a Shura field——

The struggle first originated from the struggle for military power, and the flames of war also started to ignite from here, and then spread to other areas: the defeat of the Grand Duke's forces left many real job vacancies, the emperor and the Li family wanted to install their own people, and the Grand Duke was beside him The remnant forces and other forces are eyeing each other fiercely. Although the main battlefield is between the emperor and the Li family, it is still a scuffle. Because Zhou Hongli has an agreement with the general, these powerful positions, even if they fall into the hands of others, cannot fall into the hands of the emperor, so , In this struggle, the emperor can be said to have suffered a disastrous defeat.

Afterwards, the emperor asked General Li to end his supervision of the country and hand over relevant powers on the grounds that his health had recovered, but General Li refused on the grounds that "Your Majesty is not familiar with the public security affairs of the imperial capital, and you should not act rashly during this extraordinary period."Not long after, many of the general's subordinates were exposed to scandals such as corruption, bribery, embezzlement of military expenditures, and abuse of soldiers. The general was implicated and had to give up supervising the country and hand over relevant powers.

"It is impossible for the emperor to find out these in a short time. This is what Olaf prepared to use against us in the future. Now it is used by the emperor to deal with us." Admiral Li said.

"So, what else does the emperor have?"

"It will always show up."

In return for the loss of five subordinates, the general gave the emperor who had just taken over the affairs of the imperial capital the gift of "Army Bombing Camps": Bombing camps is very terrifying in the army, which shows that people's hearts are unstable and discipline is out of control. Although the scale is small, It was also enough to make the emperor furious, so he launched a "heir candidate" as a response——

Behind the Li family stood Zhou Hongli.Zhou Hongli's purpose is to maintain Olaf's status.Then he will launch a substitute to gradually reduce Olaf's influence.

The man to whom he extended the olive branch first was the second son of the Grand Duke.In terms of blood succession order, the Grand Duke's eldest son, Ryan, should undoubtedly be ahead of Steve, but Ryan lost an arm, and with Olaf Pearl in front, first of all, the nationals will not be able to pass, so the healthy and decent-looking Steve was undoubtedly the first choice.He began to contact Steve frequently and praised him many times in public, which undoubtedly sent a message to the outside world: 1. Olaf was killed.The reason why the official did not announce the news immediately is to give the people a buffer time. Previously, the repeated upgrading of the security of the imperial capital and the frequent mobilization of the army for protection were some military deployments to prevent accidents caused by this news; 2. The emperor intended to Choose Steve as heir.Of course, this may also be a common method used by politicians to protect real candidates.

Everyone is watching.But Zhou Hongli didn't pay attention at all.The emperor hated the grand duke so much, how could he let his son be his heir?But I just want to kill them by her, them, or other people's hands.It is possible that the people who robbed him of the throne died almost as well.He can sleep in peace.

Therefore, Zhou Hongli began to think, besides "suicide for love", what other ways could she die.

At this time, some rumors about Zhou Hongli began to appear on the Internet. At first, they were nothing more than some trivial things in the past (Zhou Hongli's predecessor), and most of the speakers were "classmates", "friends", "my friend is her neighbor" and other identities , Then, an "insider who risked his life to break the news" appeared, and told about the love triangle between her, Olaf and the bodyguard leader in a twists and turns. The first is the team leader, and the two have a good impression of each other.But Olaf stepped in and pried her away with her beauty.The leader left sadly.But Olaf was not with her for a long time due to her busy work, so her relationship with the team leader rekindled.Olaf found out, but out of consideration for all parties, she forbeared, but sent the team leader to the frontier.Then Olaf died.

The implication is that the adulterer murdered the wife.

Zhou Hongli:......

Zhou Hongli thought about the meaning of this gossip: So she still has the death method of being killed by rumors?That's why she didn't believe that the people around Olaf were right. There were spies lurking around Olaf, and even the leader of Omir knew that he was dispatched.Tsk!

Then some MPs questioned that Zhou Hongli’s number of guards far exceeded the regular quota, “Is it a waste of taxpayers’ money?” And, “It violates the regulations and affects other people, I think she should realize that she is just a fiancée, not a princess or queen. "

The general said to Zhou Hongli: They finally shot you.

Zhou Hongli smiled, "Olaf said something to me before. She said that if she doesn't become emperor, she might be executed in secret. General, my situation is the same, right?"

The general didn't answer her question. No matter how strong a person is, he can't fight against a behemoth like the country. Zhou Hongli's ability is enough to make any new successor feel uneasy. :"what do you want?"

Before Zhou Hongli could think about what to do, Kalu made a bold move.This greatly exceeded Zhou Hongli's expectations. She knew that Kalu didn't like her, but at this time he chose to defend her, which made Zhou Hongli feel a little warmth——

Kalou angrily yelled at the congressman at a press conference, "Some people shouldn't be too ugly. The major general's body has not been found yet, and you are so eager to get into trouble? Waste of taxpayers' money? Have you done an investigation? All of this It's the major general's personal expenses. The major general has money. The major general likes to spend money on his fiancée. It's your turn to push? Ms. Zhou is the most special. Her safety is above all else. There is no such thing as a violation. You'd better shut up Your stinky mouth."

It's so domineering that it makes people kneel and lick, and it's self-willed that makes people worship.Not only Zhou Hongli, everyone was shocked.As soon as this news came out, all social platforms were detonated in an instant. The search engine for discussion about this speech reached 1 within a minute, which is comparable to Zhou Hongli's kick out of the sky on the opening day of the military exercise.

Earl Li felt dizzy when he saw the news, what the hell was Kalu doing?He is an official press spokesperson, not a celebrity gossip spokesperson... The point is, what is the difference between him doing this and stabbing them in the face?

"I thought he was on our side."

"He is only loyal to Olaf." The emperor said lightly, but there was hatred in his eyes.It's been like this since childhood, everyone turned to Olaf, even if he became the emperor, they still thought it belonged to Olaf.

"Except for Olaf, he will not allow anyone else to stand out. He is weakening the sense of existence of 'others'. And Zhou Hongli is undoubtedly the best topic. Blue is jumping into someone else's pit."

Bruce is the congressman who hates Zhou Hongli.He wanted to weaken Olaf's prestige by suppressing Zhou Hongli to build momentum for "his candidate", but he was opposed by others.Kalu's "direction of misfortune" is quite clever. It not only draws everyone's attention to Olaf, but also slaps the face of the love triangle rumors on the Internet. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

The emperor's guess was undoubtedly correct. As soon as the news came out, everyone forgot about the topic of "who is the next crown prince" that was still hotly debated a moment ago, and the topic turned to: 1. The official is really self-willed and domineering; 2. Is this an indirect acknowledgment? Olaf's death, just lacking a corpse to close the coffin? 3. How is Zhou Hongli's situation now? The officials can't help being angry. Is it very bad?Otherwise, why never appear in front of the media? 4. If Olaf is really dead, where will Zhou Hongli go? 5,...

Even the foreign media couldn't help but join in the discussion.Men focus on politics, while women focus on love. Even Zhou Hongli feels that although the words about Olaf are spoken by other people, why does Emma feel so sweet?

However, the popularity of this news did not last long, and was quickly overshadowed by another more shocking news: Steve, who was considered the most promising candidate for the new crown prince, was shot dead by his brother Ryan.

Ryan has lost the favor of the Grand Duke since his private plan to assassinate Olaf failed. After losing an arm, he almost became an abandoned existence and turned to pamper and train his second son, which caused Ryan's dissatisfaction and hatred for him. The younger brother's jealousy.After the death of the Grand Duke, the forces of the Grand Duke also chose to support Steve, and the emperor and the public also favored him. After many quarrels between the brothers, it finally led to this tragedy——

This is the direction of the media, and everyone has their own ideas about the truth.

Some words cannot be broken.

"Who did it?" Zhou Hongli asked the general.

The admiral smiled meaningfully, "I don't know either. The person who took the shot this time did it very neatly."

Zhou Hongli let out an "oh" and didn't ask any more questions.

"Olaf is coming back," said the admiral. "As a friendly gift, I was asked to pass this to you."

The general took out an envelope from his pocket and pushed it in front of Zhou Hongli.

Zhou Hongli picked it up to look at it, and was stunned.
