interstellar fairy tale

Chapter 131

The assassin is dead.

Under strict guard, he died silently, with no trace of trauma on his body. It was determined that he died of poisoning.

Immediately afterward, the news of the defection of the Chief of the Governor's Palace came. This man, through ingenious make-up, attempted to get on the Holhold civilian transport ship under the pretext of visiting his relatives, but was intercepted at the first security checkpoint.Without him, a modified laser cannon was completely taken out of the suitcase. He couldn't explain why he was carrying an army weapon. It would be a matter of time before his identity was revealed.

Shang Ping stayed in Soran Edrich's room all day long. The emperor listened to Novi's report with a calm expression. He didn't see any anger or dissatisfaction. However, Shang Ping felt that the defecting captain of the guard was really stupid and ran away. , and carrying destructive lethal weapons, it is more believable to say that he is going to vendetta rather than visiting relatives.

"Your Majesty, this is the minister's dereliction of duty, and it is Hallhold's disgrace!"

Novi knelt down on one knee, lowered his noble head, but didn't say anything to beg for mercy.

Soran Aldrich looked at him indifferently, tapping his fingertips lightly on the velvet-covered armrest, but he did not punish him in the end.Novi was not even required to find out the background of the assassin, and he did not even give any order to deal with the defected guard chief.

Looking at Solan Edrich, Shang Ping felt that the emperor and Marshal Novi should know who was behind the assassination.He didn't know why he had such an idea, maybe it was a little whimsical, and it didn't make sense anyway, but Soran Aldrich's reaction was too calm, or did he get used to being assassinated often?

Shang Ping was lost in his thoughts, and he didn't even notice when Novi left. When he came back to his senses, he found that Soran Edrich was looking at him quietly, his blue eyes were bottomless, like It is the most distant cosmic abyss, which will involve and devour human souls.

"Is there anything you want to say to me?"

"what?"

Shang Ping was a little puzzled, and Soran Edrich obviously didn't intend to ask any further, but just stretched out his hand to Shang Ping.Looking at the slender and fair hand, Shang Ping hesitated for a moment, then got up and walked over, standing in front of the emperor, letting his fingertips brush his cheeks and lips, and slowly passed by.

"No resistance, eh?"

"Not going to waste your energy."

Shang Ping gradually figured out how to get along with Solan Edrich. Resistance is useless, and dictators always like to suppress resistance and struggle.Being too obedient is not in line with my temper, so be a bit presumptuous in your words, and don't offend the emperor's dignity unscrupulously, then it doesn't matter much.

Shang Ping began to become tactful, even if he performed well at the banquet, it can be said that he saved Soran Edrich, but he dare not say that the assassin hidden among the guards would definitely take the emperor's life, at least, he actions to avoid this possibility.

However, the emperor's gratitude and connivance are all illusory things. Shang Ping didn't think that relying on this incident could completely change Soran Edrich's attitude towards him. The fact is exactly as he thought, his identity remained the same It's embarrassing, but Soran Aldrich's attendant will look better when he sees him again.

"Hope you'll have dinner with me tonight."

"My honour, Your Majesty."

Shang Ping bent down awkwardly, but Soran Edrich held his shoulders and kissed him lightly on the forehead, "You don't need to bend down to anyone except me, understand?"

Shang Ping met Soran Edrich's eyes and nodded helplessly.

If so, why does he have to face those two attendants who seem to be piled up with etiquette every day?

Shang Ping didn't understand what Soran Edrich was thinking, and he didn't intend to.Once he makes up his mind to do something, he will never be disrupted by other things.The only thing he has to do now is to live.As for the others, they are all floating clouds.

Therefore, when he knew that the arrested guard officer was aggressively biting, intending to drag Shang Ping into this assassination plot, what Shang Ping wanted to do the most was to blast that man's head with a laser gun!Of course, he didn't need to do anything. This ignorant man died on the same day, silently, including his family, who were all sent into the arms of death by the power holders of Holhold.

"He is a follower of the former border rebel governor. He is related to the guards involved in the assassination. He has been hiding in Holhold for decades as a spy. The whole family is serving a rebel governor."

Nowy's investigation ends here, and the identity of the gray-haired chef is still a mystery. The only way to find out is that the man's real name is Ken?Delic, who moved to Holhold more than ten years ago, lived in the 670th Bahuo planet for a short time before.Novi once suspected that this was a conspiracy by Goodwill, but the power stone in his hand made him dispel this idea.Perhaps this is just a coincidence. After all, the 670th Bahuoxing has always been known as a transfer station for exiles. Moreover, this assassination happened after the governor of Huoxing, Goodyu, reached a deal with His Majesty the Emperor. The son of Goodyu is still in the hands of the emperor. Not so stupid as to send the handle to Soran Aldrich.

When Nuo Wei knew that Shang Ping was Shangyu's son, he was obviously surprised, but he was also slightly relieved.At least, the deal with Huo Xing can continue.

"Since you can't find out, forget it."

Soran Edrich's attendant brought the emperor's words to Novi, and also notified the entire Yuga family, which shed a ray of light on the hazy sky of Holhold. If the emperor insisted on pursuing the matter, the entire Horhold I am afraid that Germany's upper power system will be shuffled, which will be a disaster for the Yujia family.

All kinds of undercurrents did not affect Shang Ping, he was busy studying the courses arranged by Soran Edrich, and was occasionally "invited" by the emperor to have dinner or play a game of shogi.

After conceding defeat again, Shang Ping sighed helplessly.

This is Soran Aldrich's fourth day in Holhold.The gloom of the assassination seems to have passed.The upper-level members of the Yujia family began to wait for the emperor's summoning again, and Shang Ping was obviously not suitable to be there.

Shang Ping's current scope of activities has expanded to the garden of the Governor's Mansion. Before, he was not allowed to leave this building.

Now is the blooming season in Holhold, with flowers blooming, bees and butterflies flying, and the whole garden looks like a sea of ​​colorful flowers.

Shang Ping went to a bush and lay down on the grass. It was a rare relaxing time. When he was drowsy from the sun, a group of people broke the tranquility.The leader was a young man with light brown hair, with exquisite facial features, and a unique arrogance in the corners of his eyes and brows.Shang Ping knew this boy, the son of Marshal Novi's cousin, had just graduated from the Imperial Military Academy this year, and was currently serving in the Imperial fleet under Horhold.This boy is a fanatical admirer of Solan Edrich, and he was very unfriendly to Shang Ping at the banquet before, but Shang Ping felt that there was nothing wrong with it, and he would not have much to do with this young guy Intersection, though, apparently he was wrong.It takes the efforts of both parties to keep the water in the well and the water in the river, and when one of them is very ignorant, the idea becomes a joke.

"Dear guest, why are you lying on the grass? An educated person would never behave in such a rude manner."

Not even sarcasm.

Shang Ping secretly slandered, no matter what, this boy didn't give him a good feeling, he was as noisy as an annoying baboon.

Standing up and slapping the leaves of grass off his body, Shang Ping turned around to leave.He wasn't going to run afoul of the boy at the Governor's Palace, it wouldn't do him any good.

"stop!"

The other party obviously didn't intend to let him go, and at the same time was annoyed at his ignorance. He couldn't help reaching out and grabbing Shang Ping's shoulder, but he didn't expect Shang Ping to grab his wrist in an instant. He fell to the ground, and then a knee pressed against his chest, making him a little out of breath.

Shang Ping looked at the boy glaring at him in surprise, and asked amusedly, "Are you really a soldier of the Golden Empire?"

The boy still stared fiercely at Shang Ping, and his followers were also bewildered by the situation before them, not knowing how to react at all.

"You know, my melee combat is very average, really just like yours." Shang Ping deliberately emphasized, and found that he was also very funny, "However, the soldiers of the Empire I have seen are all extremely strong, and they can fight with bare hands. I am no match at all. And you can still get the rank of second lieutenant?" Shang Ping glanced at the boy's collar badge with contempt, and said slowly: "Family background is really a good thing, young master. You should thank the empire for having a wise emperor, otherwise who will forgive the incompetent dandies and moths?"

Shang Ping never knew that he could be so mean, just when the boy was so angry that he wanted to pull him out?When the gun was fired, Soran Aldrich stepped out from behind the dappled tree.The emperor was dressed in a white uniform with luxurious royal patterns embroidered on the sleeves, like a gorgeous crystal statue.Seemingly not seeing the face of the boy who was pressed on the ground flushed with shame, Soran Edrich walked up to him, pulled Shang Ping up, and gently kissed Shang Ping's fingers with a very gentle tone.

"My wagtail, you always surprise me."

Shang Ping didn't know how to react, so he remained expressionless.Others in the garden were too shocked to speak.

That night, the boy who clashed with Shang Ping was sent away from the governor's mansion, and Shang Ping had no interest in his fate.He knew that he was really a fake tiger. If it wasn't for Soran Edrich, maybe he would have been beaten into a sieve by now with a laser gun.

Sitting on the bed while wiping his hair, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Shang Ping's mind, he wanted to understand why he hated that boy so much!His attitude is very much like a person, a guy who was very different from himself in the Madoff Military Academy, his memory is a little fuzzy, but Shang Ping still remembers that boy with gray hair, called Ben?dridge.But before graduating, that guy suddenly disappeared, and then it seemed that someone had seen him in the Federation of Free Cities.

Wait, gray hair, Derich? !

Shang Ping suddenly stopped moving, how is this possible? !

In the universe, the Mars voyage fleet has been attacked by interstellar pirates twice, but the losses are not large. After destroying the interstellar pirates, they seized a large amount of weapons and food supplies, and continued to move forward after a short rest.

Looking at the news sent back by Lord, Goodwill had to be amazed at Major General Edgar's command ability.Given the man enough ships and weapons to match his command, he might easily defeat an Imperial fleet of the same size.

However, fate always likes to joke.Therefore, whether it is the long-distance fleet or Mars, the way forward has been determined early on.

Goodwill turned off the virtual light screen, closed his eyes, and slowly leaned back on the chair.

At the same time, Aijia, the new owner of the Free City Federation of the Muse Galaxy?Delic walked into the secret room deep in the city lord's mansion alone, and did not come out for a whole day and night.
