I walk in the past, continue the future

Chapter 100 Mood Points

"So, is the Duke of New Helios?"

On the VIP seat in the building on one side, Thangka watched Xia Lian, who was receiving the cheers from the people, and looked at him wearing a military uniform and looking gallant.

"Yes." Jackman said on the side.

Thangka was silent for a moment, then he slowly got up.

"Let's go."

"Let's go?" Jackman was a little puzzled, "Aren't we going to the banquet at the New Summer Palace?"

"People have seen it, and our mission on this trip has been completed.

We came to participate in his enthronement ceremony, which has already made Bahram's life suspicious. If we go to the banquet and contact him, we are unilaterally breaking the agreement. "

"Hmph." Thangka snorted coldly, "That place, which was obviously ours in the past, is now going to be traded with them."

"Don't talk about what happened hundreds of years ago."

After a pause, Thangka continued.

"Jackman."

Jackman looked at his father suspiciously.

"Don't mess with him, Bahram can't fight him, neither can we."

Thangka stared at Xia Lian, "I have met many people in my life, but this is the first time I have met someone like him."

He stared at Xia Lian in the convertible.

"His eyes, without hesitation, even now, they are surrounded by powerful enemies.

For him, neither the Bahram nor the Yaka are good enough to be his opponents.

In his eyes, there is greater ambition and desire. "

"What ambition?"

"One, an ambition that neither you nor I can imagine." Thangka murmured absently.

With that said, he slowly left the VIP seat.

Xia Lian seemed to be aware of it, raised his head and looked at the VIP seat, but did not say a word.

Just as Shalian thought, there were a lot of spies and killers lurking in the Principality of Bahram, but fortunately, they now also have a traitor inside the Principality of Bahram.

Anlu gave them a detailed list, so at this moment, the streets were very peaceful, because they were almost all settled by the Circe troops.

If you are assassinated at a parade ceremony, even if it is resolved, it will still be a blow to the hearts of the people.

The best option is to resolve it before the parade ceremony, which is why Xia Lian took the risk to make that choice.

After the coronation ceremony in the rather ghostly church, there was the celebrity banquet in the evening. In short, it was some of Xia Lian's most annoying polite words in the past.

There were also a bunch of people who saw that Xia Lian was a single person who came to propose a marriage to marry a daughter, most of them from giant companies in the new federation.

After these people have money, they value their reputation very much.

The gimmicks of nobles and princesses are still very attractive to these people.

Empires also often attract investment by granting titles.

However, Xia Lian handled these things with ease.

After a round of polite greetings, he left the stage and returned to his room, laying on the big bed, and letting out a sigh of relief.

"It's cool to be the Grand Duke, but it's really tired to be tired."

"Among the several big companies looking for you to marry, there are several companies whose industries are just complementary to Helios." Mercury said on the side of Xia Lian.

"Did you marry me?" Xia Lian asked.

Mercury was silent, "This is your choice."

"I'm not in a hurry. I'm only eighteen now, and it's still early to get married and have children." Xia Lian said.

Mercury nodded, "I have your chromosomes stored in my body. If you want an offspring, I can mimic an artificial womb to synthesize embryos at any time. My genes have been optimized, and the offspring's genes will be excellent."

Xia Lian opened his eyes and looked at Mercury in astonishment, "Have you saved it all?"

Mercury tilted his head in confusion, "Is this weird? This should be a good insurance, in case you die unexpectedly, Helios can maintain a stable."

"I do hope that never happens."

"I understand it's just an insurance mechanism," said Quicksilver.

Xia Lian looked at Mercury and smiled, "If I really marry those people, will you be unhappy?"

"Why am I unhappy?" Mercury was a little puzzled, "Your noble genes have been extended more, shouldn't you be happy?"

"It seems that I still don't have access to your heart, otherwise, you should be unhappy."

Xia Lian murmured softly.

"You know what, Mercury.

In the past, a writer named Zhang Ailing said that the stomach that leads to a man's heart is the stomach.

Do you know, what she said, what leads to a woman's heart? "

"What?" Quicksilver asked.

"Come up and I'll teach you."

Although Mercury was a little puzzled, he still climbed onto Xia Lian's bed.

Afterwards, Xia Lian lifted the quilt and covered both inside.

After a while, Mercury's slightly panicked voice came from the quilt.

"Wait, Your Highness, it's not there, you made a mistake!"

But soon, she lost her voice, only a little gasping for breath.

When I woke up the next morning.

Xia Lian sat at the end of the seven-to-eight-meter long table in the dining hall, enjoying a hearty breakfast.

These are synthetic foods, and in this day and age, such synthetic foods are beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Even if there are some parts of ordinary food that humans can absorb, most of them cannot be absorbed by humans and will become excrement.

The food on the table in front of Xia Lian can be absorbed by the body, and whether it is taste or texture, it is no different from real food, on the contrary, it is much healthier and delicious than ordinary food.

Teresa stood beside Xia Lian and looked around suspiciously.

"What about the remodeler who's been with you all the time?"

"Going to Evernight Star." Xia Lian said, "She said she was going to help transform Fenrir."

Teresa nodded, "Isn't she your bodyguard?"

"She's not too happy anymore." Xia Lian smiled.

Teresa looked at Xia Lian, "But you seem very happy to see you."

"It's the first time I've seen her so flustered." Xia Lian smiled, "Besides, it was a bit of a surprise to me."

Teresa said meaningfully, "Reforming people are also people, and they will have emotions, but compared to ordinary people, the emotional point will be a bit strange.

For example, Rika, who is in charge of your bathroom hygiene, doesn't like people seeing her feet very much, so she always wears stockings, otherwise she will be very shy.

But even if you let her show up in front of you without clothes, she won't have any mood changes.

Lan Ya, who is in charge of the restaurant, doesn't like others seeing her hands, so she always wears white gloves. If someone touches her hands, her face will turn red instantly. "

Xia Lian said in surprise, "Why is this happening?"

"Probably because the body is somewhat different from the real human body," Teresa said.

"Do you also have such a strange emotional point?" Xia Lian asked.

Teresa put her index finger on her lips and smiled, "It's a secret."

Xia Lian shrugged.

At this moment, the door of the restaurant opened slowly, and Su Ke walked in from outside, facing Xia Liandao in a panic.

"Your Highness, there is news from the Empire."

"speak."

"The Empire has confirmed the date of the Banquet of Kings."

"The Banquet of the Kings?" Xia Lian frowned slowly.

Sulfur nodded, "Yes, just tomorrow, all the grand dukes with fiefs will be present, in order to reconcile the conflict between you and the Bahram family."

"Didn't Bahram not even elect the Grand Duke?" Xia Lian frowned, "How to reconcile?"

"Several candidate princes and the matriarchal forces behind them will all be present." Su Ke said.

After a pause, Sulfur Ke said worriedly, "Your Highness, what should we do? Why don't we go?"

"Since all the Grand Dukes are required to be present, then we have no room for veto." Xia Lian whispered softly.

"If we don't go, we will openly oppose the authority of the empire. At that time, in the empire, our dukedom will become the target of public criticism."

"But if you go, what if you don't come back?" Su Ke said.

"Don't worry, I'll be back." Xia Lian murmured softly, "They can't kill me, because once I die at the banquet of kings, or on the way to the banquet of kings.

Then the empire is the biggest suspect. If he wants to weaken us, he can directly let the two countries consume domestically, and there is no need to end himself. "

"What does the emperor want to do?" Su Ke asked.

"What you want to do, you won't know until you get there." Xia Lian whispered, "You don't have to follow the time arranged by the other party to prepare the spacecraft.

Since they didn't say we couldn't go earlier, we'd go to the imperial capital one day earlier. "

"Yes!" Su Ke nodded, "Then I'll make arrangements."

"That's right." Xia Lian said, "We have a code here, if "I" comes back and can't match the code, then "I" is not me.

have you understood? "

Sulfur Ke thought for a moment, and then, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, "I understand, if "you" are not you, what should we do?"

"Listen to that "me" for the time being, monitor "him" and wait for me to come back."

"Yes."
