Chapter 23
"However, it's because of the old fashion with Her Majesty the Empress and some old friends, that's all, that's all she dares to be presumptuous in front of Her Majesty." Gu Zheng saw that what he needed to express was pretty much revealed, so he didn't mind saying a few compliments to Ling Fei .
Ling Fei secretly liked Gu Zheng's compromise, but he didn't show it at all on his face: "I don't know, what are your plans for the general electing the emperor?"
Gu Zheng is the only one who can restrain Ying Hui in some aspects... That's why they have to cooperate with Gu Zheng.
"I heard that Ying Hui is so powerful that even the members of the Presbyterian Council want to avoid him... What can I, a defeated general with nothing, have to contend with the Elector?" Gu Zheng said in a low voice.
Since you want to leverage on him, then the basic conditions and benefits must be opened up for him to evaluate...
If the hardware is insufficient, he is not a fool who will make a knife and gun in the hands of others.
Ling Fei said without further ado: "Who said the general has nothing?"
Gu Zheng looked up at him.
"Your Majesty and I are the general's backing." Ling Fei smiled slightly, tapped the table with his index finger, and said in a confident voice.
Gu Zheng remained silent.
Ling Fei then promised empty words: "Ying Hui, a rebellious minister and traitor, has completely disregarded me and His Majesty after he took power. His wolf ambition can be seen in the world. In recent years, he even intends to subvert the royal family. Zhu, it's a pity that the royal family is incompetent and the elders are incompetent, so he has to see his strength grow stronger and stronger. Today, the only one who can compete with Ying Hui in terms of mental strength is you, General. After losing his mind, you can It is the great fortune of the whole Dias to recover from sobriety..."
"My Majesty and I promise the general that one day in the future, as long as the general can get rid of Ying Hui, all the military power, influence and even the seat of the electorate that Ying Hui currently possesses will belong to the general."
Gu Zheng didn't dare to respond: "...I don't have such intentions, let alone such ambitions."
If he agrees, mantis catching cicadas and orioles will be behind, he can finish Ying Hui on the front foot, and I am afraid that William Shiliu and his wife will finish him off before his power has grown and his foundation is firmly established.
These politicians.
He really knows it all too well.
How can people like them have credibility, such things as promises?
However, they are all fooling the people and playing with people's hearts.
"The general has any request, just say it, as long as it is within the ability of me and His Majesty, we husband and wife will definitely do our best to solve it for the general." Ling Fei didn't care about boasting, anyway, all the requirements are He promised, but William XVI did not promise a word.
At that time, if you don't want to do it, just let it go.
Gu Zheng lowered his eyes and said: "I don't dare to ask for anything, and I don't even dare to think about adding an official to the title of an extremely human minister. I just hope that after I solve Ying Hui, I can still be Dias's lieutenant general. You can also form your own legion..."
It's not that he can't see Lingfei's wishful thinking.
"This is inevitable. You have always been the best general in Dias, Lieutenant General Gu Zheng." Ling Fei didn't expect Gu Zheng to be so easily dismissed, and his mood suddenly became much happier.
Gu Zheng frowned in embarrassment, he hesitated to speak: "Your Majesty..."
"What's the matter? The general has something to say, but it's okay to say it." Ling Fei asked tactfully.
Gu Zheng pushed the boat forward, hesitantly said: "Your Majesty, Ying Hui has Lucifer, the most top-level restricted mecha in the entire interstellar, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to compete with him now."
"I wonder if Your Majesty can find a way to get my mech back for me?" This is the most fundamental purpose of his dealing with Ling Fei for so long.
After he was defeated, Michael was taken back to the Dias Royal Mecha Library and fought side by side for 100 years. Gu Zheng has special feelings for Michael...
Therefore, after he wakes up, the two most important things for him now are——
In order to get a smooth divorce, Yi obtained Ying Xu's custody and took him away.
The second is to take back Michael.
Even against Ying Hui, he would be at the bottom of the list for the current him...Since these two people have the intention of using him as a weapon, they must show him some sincerity see.
"This..." Ling Fei had always been straightforward before, but after Gu Zheng mentioned Michael, he showed hesitation on his face: "Michael is a historical and cultural mecha, even if it is me It’s not easy to decide, His Majesty and I can provide the General with better and more advanced mechs, I wonder if the General can consider it?”
Michael has always symbolized the pinnacle of omega power and strength in the history of Dias——
As an omega exclusive mecha, only omega with very strong mental threshold and a few betas with extremely high mental threshold can pilot it, and its previous masters were all the most powerful ones among omega of that era.
Therefore, after getting Michael, even if he couldn't establish a spiritual connection with him, Ling Fei didn't want to hand him over.
Especially after Gu Zheng's omega identity was exposed...
Gu Zheng lowered his eyes and remained silent. After a while, he said, "I have feelings for Michael."
"Furthermore, Lucifer is also a historical relic-level mecha. Except for Michael, I am afraid that other mechas will not be able to compete with it. Only Michael can make my spiritual threshold perform supernormally and get a bonus. My spirit Strength is not as good as Ying Hui, if there is no Michael, my mental strength has not improved much in the past few years, I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with him..." he added.
It is impossible to want the horse to run and also want the horse not to eat grass.
Ling Fei pondered for a moment, and immediately made up his mind: "Michael's control is still in the hands of the elders, and His Majesty and I can't help it, but His Majesty and I will try our best to deal with the general in it, and please wait for the general." Great news for us."
What Gu Zheng said is true.
Without Michael, Gu Zheng couldn't compete with Ying Hui.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, as long as I can get Michael back, Gu Zheng will be willing to serve the two Majesties, and he will go through fire and water." Who wouldn't say good things?
Gu Zheng raised Michael emphatically, and also made a false promise to Ling Fei.
When Ling Fei heard Gu Zheng mentioning Michael again, his face couldn't help but turn a bit ugly, but he couldn't show it on his face: "Please wait for the good news, General, Your Majesty and I will do our best."
Gu Zheng answered yes again and again.
Ling Fei exchanged pleasantries with Gu Zheng for a while, and finally switched the topic back to what Ling Fei wanted: "Ying Hui hasn't shown his spiritual strength in front of people for six years, and many people doubt his There may be some problems with mental strength, last time, His Majesty and I asked the general to help us to test it out, and now the general and Ying Hui will meet..."
"I don't know, but what is the result?" This was the fundamental purpose of his appointment with Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng didn't bite the hook, instead he asked instead: "Did the two Highnesses send someone to test Ying Hui before?"
"I'm really ashamed. Your Majesty and I really don't have anyone with a mental threshold as high as the general's." Ling Fei was very good at playing tricks on people's hearts, and with a single sentence, he praised Gu Zheng's position.
If it was someone else, I'm afraid he would have been blown away by flattery...
But Gu Zheng heard what he meant, and he didn't ask anyone to test it. It seems that the couple is really afraid of Ying Hui. Regarding the rumors that Ying Hui's mental power has problems, Lian personally asked someone to testify. I didn't even dare, because I was afraid that Ying Hui would be offended, so I turned a corner to find him, Ying Hui's old enemy, to help test Ying Hui...
Gu Zheng didn't care about being used by others, because he himself was curious about the answer.
But since he is used, there is no reason not to give benefits...
"Because I don't have a mecha, so I can't use the mecha to test Ying Hui's spiritual power. But I have tested his personal spiritual power directly. It is very strong. It doesn't seem like something is wrong. Even I personally feel that he has improved a lot in these years, I wonder if it is an illusion caused by my spiritual decline over the years..." Gu Zheng actually felt that based on Ying Hui's original spiritual power, his spiritual power has been reduced in recent years. It's really strange that he has improved so much, but he didn't choose to tell Ling Fei what he said, which made him bold enough to fight Ying Hui's dog.
Ling Fei frowned all of a sudden: "Not only does it look like there is no problem, but does it also make great progress?"
This is not quite in line with what he and the emperor imagined.
"Yes—" Gu Zheng answered with a guilty conscience.
He paused, and then said: "Of course, this is just the result I guessed based on the strength of the mental counterattack he gave me. The specific data of his current mental threshold will have to wait for me to use the mecha to fight against him." You can get it through actual combat.”
After hitting a stick, he didn't want to speak so deadly.
"I see, Your Majesty and I will find a way to send Michael to the general as soon as possible..." Seeing that he mentioned Michael again, Ling Fei couldn't help being a little upset.
Gu Zheng was upset to see him, on the surface he was terrified, but in his heart he was very happy.
The two of you said another word, and I ended the conversation with one word.
When Gu Zheng left the coffee shop, he glanced at his personal terminal and realized that the time was already past one in the afternoon.The glare of the afternoon sun made his eyes a little blurred. After seeing Ling Fei, he thought of an old friend of his many years ago, an old friend who had been dead for many years, and sighed: "Jiang Yi , you are not worth it, you are really not worth it, Ling Fei is now the queen of Diaz, living a wonderful life, I have never seen the slightest guilt and miss for you, you died for him back then, it is really not worth it , How stupid... In the eyes of a person like him who climbs up by any means, you are just a stepping stone for him, how can he have any real affection for you?"
Jiang Yi is Gu Zheng's old friend, and he is also the one that Gu Zheng admires the most among the alphas that Gu Zheng has seen so many people over the years. Gu Zheng even thought that if Jiang Yi's partner is Jiang Yi, he can also consider marrying an alpha.
It's a pity that such an alpha is dead——
For an omega that is not worth it at all.
