interstellar fairy tale

Chapter 142

"Imperial Major?" Empress Dowager Yilan exclaimed, "What is Your Majesty thinking? You actually conferred the rank of Imperial Major to a man of unknown origin?"

"His Majesty has issued a formal letter of appointment."

"Where is the military department, what about the Prime Minister, none of them raised any objections?"

"No."

Empress Dowager Yilan stood up in astonishment, pacing on the carpet almost anxiously, "What is his identity? What is Your Majesty thinking?"

The attendant was silent, and the maid who accompanied the empress dowager did not say a word.At this moment, no one can answer the empress dowager's question, except Solan Edrich himself who is still staying in Sesha.

Finally, the Empress Dowager Yilan calmed down and said to the attendants: "I want all his information, detailed, all!"

Earl Reichardt, who was far away in Ivan's Summer Palace, also received the official document immediately.The Imperial Major appointed by His Majesty is only 16 years old, and he comes from Mars of the Muse Galaxy. Apart from that, he has no background information.The Imperial Military Department is not limited to the leaders directly under the Empire, and there is no shortage of outstanding talents on the conquered planets, but at least five years of service in the Imperial Army are required to be eligible for promotion.And the Muse galaxy has not even been included in the territory of the empire!

"My lord, does Your Majesty have any other considerations?"

Some imperial officials were completely confused about this appointment, and some people in the military department began to move around.They didn't expect to overthrow the rule of Solan Aldrich, at least, let the young emperor know that self-willedness also depends on the situation.

The emperor's throne can be a tyrant, but he must not be a fool.

Earl Reichardt said nothing about this. He still has another piece of information in his hand. The father-son relationship between Shang Ping and the 670th Bahuoxing Governor Shangyu gave the powerful Prime Minister of the Empire a different view on this appointment. .

"Everyone, Your Majesty's authority is supreme." Earl Reichardt formally expressed his attitude at a regular cabinet meeting, "Any doubts and conspiracy against His Majesty will be punished!"

Earl Reichardt made a final decision. Regardless of Soran Edrich's reluctance or not, in the Ivan Palace, and even in the entire empire, the emperor's orders still needed a useful eraser, the Prime Minister.

Shang Ping didn't know what this seemingly simple appointment would bring him.On the night of the request, he went into Solan Aldrich's room.The emperor leaned against the head of the bed relaxedly, and smiled to see him standing there awkwardly. He knew what Shang Ping was here for, and Shang Ping himself was convinced that he was a trustworthy person.But when things come to an end, not everything can be laughed off.

Shang Ping admits that he is a man and shouldn't be twitchy, but he just feels awkward.Would pork on a cutting board feel the same?

Soran Edrich didn't speak, but quietly watched the changing expression on Shang Ping's face, until Shang Ping was so embarrassed that he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

With one hand on his lips, his elegant cello-like laughter broke the silence in the room, "Sorry, ha..." Soran Edrich's blue eyes were also full of smiles, and the corners of his lips curved Melting the ice-like temperament, the silver hair hangs softly on the shoulders, and the sapphire collar button on the collar of the shirt is shining against the snow-white skin.

"Your Majesty, this is not funny."

"Well, it's not funny."

Soran Edrich struggled to stop his smile. Shang Ping had already walked to the bedside. He had just showered, and his body still had the clear smell of water. His black hair was damply attached to his forehead, and his simple shirt and trousers outlined the Youthful clean and refreshing temperament.The emperor's laughter strangely soothed Shang Ping's anxiety. Once he calmed down and the embarrassing embarrassment faded away, Shang Ping was undoubtedly very attractive.

There was no denying that, as Soran Aldrich's admiring glance sufficed.

Pulling Shang Ping into his arms with one hand, Shang Ping staggered unexpectedly, and sat in the emperor's arms with his back against Soran Edrich.Different from the old-fashioned nobles of the empire, the members of the royal family of Edrich did not like to infuse themselves with any foreign fragrance.Especially the emperor of the empire, on his body, there will always be only the cold fragrance of the royal family emanating from his bones.Seductive, mysterious.

Solan Edrich's snow-white skin was almost transparent, which often made Shangping wonder that he had body temperature.This snow-like emperor, like a statue carved from the most cherished crystal, just sitting or standing there quietly is enough to attract anyone's attention.

Beautiful, smart, tough.

He has the largest territory and supreme power in the universe.A single thought can change the fate of a galaxy.Shang Ping can't even feel jealous towards him, it's completely unrealistic.

Of course, it was not so easy to have a good impression of Soran Edrich.However, for Shang Ping now, none of this matters anymore.In any case, he has already sold himself. It is very simple, first dig a hole, jump in happily in front of Soran Edrich, scrape the soil a few times, and then count the money to the other party with a smile .

Thinking back, this is really the case.

The more Shang Ping thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. Logically speaking, it's really inconceivable that such a selfish, self-serving, self-sacrificing person would do such a thing.At the end of the day, there was no way he could have watched Edgar die, or turned a blind eye to Goodwill's madness and resentment, and more importantly, he wanted to live.

"What are you thinking about?"

The white and slender fingertips rubbed the boy's creamy skin, slid from the chin to the smooth neck, penetrated from the neckline, and lingered on the collarbone.

Some cold.

Shang Ping moved his body instinctively, and found that his waist was bound, so he could only lean back a bit, trying to make himself as comfortable as possible.

"His Majesty……"

"kindness?"

Soran Edrich's voice rang in his ears, and the warm and cool breath slipped behind his ears, his fingers gradually slipped down, and he opened the two buttons of Shangping's shirt, the silver buttons slipped out of the buttonholes, and his snow-white hands were completely Overlay, where the heart is.

Shang Ping froze suddenly, raised his head, and the instant surprise fell into Soran Edrich's eyes without reservation.The emperor's eyes were still cold and clear, without any trace of emotion?desired color.

Shang Ping's uneasiness seemed to make Soran Edrich very happy, and he simply pulled Shang Ping to lie down on the bed, still hugging him, but he would no longer feel any aggression, pulled up the velvet brocade quilt, Lightly covering the two of them, the silver hair fell on Shang Ping's neck, itching.

"His Majesty?"

A light kiss, followed by a smiling voice, "Go to sleep."

"But……"

"But what?" Soran Edrich pulled Shang Ping's shoulders, covered Shang Ping's body with his whole body, and looked down at Shang Ping, "There is no but, do you understand? Or do you want me to continue?"

"Do not."

Shang Ping shook his head and simply didn't think about anything.

Soran Aldrich held him in his arms again, the boy's body was flexible, his skin was soft, and the refreshing breath was like the morning breeze and starlight, the breeze blew by, and the goddess of the night sang softly in Sesha's night.

After a long time, Soran Edrich opened his eyes, feeling the light and regular breathing of the black-haired boy, and his blue eyes overflowed with unnoticed tenderness.

Maybe he just needs a partner, or maybe Shang Ping just showed up at the right time and aroused his interest, but the young emperor has made up his mind that the black-haired boy will become the most beautiful golden wagtail in the emperor's garden .

In the same night, not everyone can sleep peacefully.

Standing in front of the window, the amethyst hairpin in his hand shone beautifully in the starlight.However, the bug installed in the crystal hairpin repeated Major General Edgar's words and Shangping's oath over and over again.Until the last energy was exhausted, the hairpin was thrown to the ground and rolled down the steps in front of the window, the sound of the crystal hitting the marble was clear and sweet.

Honor, pride, everything, everything that was once considered larger than life...

Shangyu laughed suddenly, the laughter grew louder, two lines of tears rolled down the corners of his eyes, he hugged himself like a lonely child, and fell to the ground.

Shang Ping's appointment, under Earl Reichardt's clear statement and Solan Edrich's firm attitude, did not cause any waves.Shangping does not belong to any fleet in the empire, nor does any warship belong to him.All he can lead is the Mars captives who are still being held in Sesia's prison at this moment, and perhaps prisoners of war from other galaxies. As the lord of Sesia, Harlan?Edrich once raised objections to this, but in the end he could only submit under the emperor's order.But don't think that he will provide Shangping with even one battleship!

Shang Ping didn't care about it, besides, he had already got what he wanted, and the others were not important.

He unfolded the military uniform he sent, and put it on meticulously. The golden buttons were buttoned up to the neckline, and the tasseled epaulettes shone on the gorgeous silver and gold military uniform.Picking up the military cap, no accident, the cap badge is also a gem.

"...really rich."

This was the first comment Shang Ping uttered after putting on the imperial uniform.

Taking a deep breath, Shang Ping adjusted his appearance in front of the full-length mirror for the last time. The face in the mirror was so familiar, yet so strange.A year ago, Shang Ping never imagined that he would wear the uniform of the Golden Empire one day.Back then, they were enemies.

"Maybe it's fate?"

With a sneer, Shang Ping punched the mirror with his fist, the smooth mirror cracked from the point of impact, and the red and swollen knuckles were covered up by the snow-white gloves.Shang Ping turned around and strode out of the room.

At this time, it was June [-], [-] in the Milky Way calendar. No one knew what fate would be like after leaving this room, but Shang Ping knew what he should do next.

The black military boots hit the marble floor, reflecting cold and hard lines on the shiny floor.

Goodwill seemed to have expected Shang Ping's arrival, looking at the boy who opened the door and walked towards him, he smiled slowly.

"You came."

"Yes, father."

Shang Ping walked up to Shangyu, took off his military cap and put it on his forearm, "Father, I made a deal with the emperor of the empire."

"trade?"

"Yes. Rather than being used as a bargaining chip by others, it is better to value yourself. This is what you taught me."

"and then?"

"I want the 670th Bahuoxing, no, it's all your warships."

"What if I say no? What will you do?"

"You won't refuse. You mean a lot to me, and so does Uncle Edgar. I want you to live. More importantly, I want to live."

"Are you sure Soran II will keep his promise?"

"The emperor's promise has begun to be fulfilled. I promise you, I will fulfill your wish and send all those who betrayed you to the gallows of death."

"What if the emperor finally breaks his promise?"

"Then leave it to fate. It can't get any worse."

Shangyu looked at Shangping quietly, without any emotion in his calm eyes, and Shangping also stared at him motionlessly.The father and son seemed to be engaged in a wrestling, and the strange thing was that no one represented the righteous side.

After a long silence, Shangyu sighed.

"Well, you won." He hugged Shang Ping with a smile, "My child, perhaps, sending you to Soran Edrich's side was a mistake from the beginning. But, I am proud of this mistake. However, I also want you to remember that conscience is not forgiveness. Mercy is not for everyone. And, never forget what you promised me."

"I know." Shang Ping smiled back and hugged Shangyu, "So, if I dare to meet you in this suit, if it's Uncle Edgar, he might just throw me out."

"Why? It suits you very well, how beautiful. The empire collects so much tax every year, is it moldy?"

"Father, merchants don't pay taxes to the empire, do they?"

"Of course!"

"..."

Shang Ping didn't know whether what Shang Yu said was true, but he was sure that Shang Yu would fulfill his promise.

At the same time, Sesha's ground prison alarm system rang loudly, and eight infiltrators were caught outside the prison.
