Interstellar boss, she doesn't talk about martial arts

Chapter 1309 Dear Family Members (Second Update)
Xia Chujian shook his head and said, "Not for now."

"Let's go to South Eleven Star and settle things there first."

Huo Yushen raised his eyebrows and thought, he won’t make any trouble?

Could it be that he had misjudged her?

Then Xia Chujian said, "When I have made new contributions, we will go to the military to settle accounts together."

The word "always" is particularly effective.

Huo Yushen: "..."

Well, it’s still the Xia Chujian he is familiar with.

That's right.

Huo Yushen nodded: "Well, there is really no time now."

"I'm ready, how about you?"

Xia Chujian said: "We can set off right away."

Huo Yushen glanced at Xia Chujian and asked for her opinion: "Then let's use the mecha to fly to the wormhole in the star field over on the Southern Cross?"

Xia Chujian asked, "Are there any interstellar spacecraft sending supplies to the Southern Cross recently?"

Huo Yushen chuckled: "...I temporarily arranged a ship."

Xia Chujian knew that Huo Yushen had already started an investigation into the "traitor" here.

She asked curiously, "Are you going fishing?"

Huo Yushen said vaguely: "Almost, but not completely."

Xia Chujian: "..."

She thought of the traitor representative who was sent to the Southern Cross last time to trade with the Zerg, and said, "...If you just want to fish, I can be the bait. Don't send your field staff there. Every one of them will die, which is too tragic..."

Huo Yushen lowered his eyes and said, "The bait this time is me."

Xia Chujian said hurriedly: "You can't do that, you will be targeted by them, I am more suitable. The key is that I won't be marked by them!"

Huo Yushen was in a complicated mood.

If it were in the past, he would have agreed without hesitation.

Because in his mind, Xia Chujian was always a relatively capable subordinate, so of course he had to "make the best use of him."

But after going through so much, he already felt a little reluctant...

However, Huo Yushen quickly adjusted his mentality, suppressed his emotion, nodded, and said: "Then I'll trouble you. Don't worry, I will give you a reward this time too!"

Xia Chujian was most interested in military merits, so he immediately asked, "Can these two types of military merits be combined?"

Huo Yushen: "..."

The increasingly familiar Xia Chujian is back again.

He chuckled and nodded, "Sure. Military merit is military merit, there is no such thing as superposition or offset. No matter where you make the merit, as long as it is military merit, it will be counted on you."

After a moment of silence, Huo Yushen continued, "In history, the Beichen Empire has the most generous rewards for military merit."

"Only when military merits have accumulated to a certain level can one be granted a title."

"You see, after some nobles were stripped of their titles in the past few years, the newly awarded nobles were ranked according to their military merits."

Xia Chujian was curious and asked, "What about you, Marshal Huo? With your military merits, can you give it a try, not to mention ordinary nobles, even the four great nobles?"

After saying this, she felt something was wrong and added, "Unfortunately, there is a fixed number of titles in the Beichen Empire."

"If you don't take away the title, even if you have military merits, you still can't be awarded the title, right?"

"What should we do? Just keep waiting? What if we die before the wait? Can we leave it to the next generation to keep waiting?"

Huo Yushen raised the corners of his lips slightly and said, "You really think too highly of me."

"All my military merits were used to become a marshal. The rest were exchanged for other benefits. For example, there is no more military merit left for that Batfighter to be conferred a knighthood."

Xia Chujian was surprised and regretful, and said, "Really? Your military merits are only enough to make you a marshal? This marshal is not a title, so it can't be inherited, right? Then you are at a loss, right?"

"I've seen several other marshals, and none of them has as outstanding military achievements as you!"

Huo Yushen said: "This is the first lesson for you."

"The military merits of ordinary people like us and the military merits of nobles will receive different levels of rewards."

"I can save up my military merits. Even if I am not awarded the rank of marshal, it will be enough for me to become an earl."

"But, I don't want to."

Xia Chujian was curious: "Why? If you don't confer the rank of marshal, but only the rank of general, and then use the remaining military merits to exchange for a hereditary earldom, wouldn't that be better than a marshal rank that can't be inherited and has no real power?"

Huo Yushen looked at her and said, "Do you really want a title?"

Xia Chujian said: "Why not? If I have enough military merits, and if that dog emperor has given me nothing more to offer, then of course I want a title!"

Huo Yushen said: "But after you are conferred the title, the life and death of you and your entire family will be decided by the emperor at his whim."

"He can deprive you and your family of your title and sentence you to death without going through the Senate and the Cabinet, or going to court. Do you still want it?"

Xia Chujian was shocked: "Ah?! Really?! Nobles have this weakness?!" Huo Yushen said: "This is a rule established by the founding emperor Tan Tailin when the Beichen Empire was founded."

"When the constitutional monarchy was established five hundred years ago, the emperor gave up a lot of political power, but kept the sole jurisdiction over the nobles in his own hands."

“The new constitution not only preserved the privileges of the nobility, but also preserved the emperor’s privileges over the nobility.”

"Of course, this privilege is much stronger than before the establishment of the constitutional monarchy."

"Before the establishment of constitutional monarchy, the emperor could exterminate any noble he wanted without even going through the formalities of a decent procedure."

"After the establishment of constitutional monarchy, if the emperor wants to exterminate a noble, he needs to have a legitimate reason and follow the procedures, so it can be considered a progress."

"However, only the emperor can confer titles, and only the emperor can take away titles and sentence entire families of nobles to death."

Xia Chujian immediately lost interest and sneered, "Forget it... Nobles are nothing more than dogs in a gilded cage that the emperor keeps!"

Huo Yushen said: "The four nobles are still different."

"They had a very special status before the establishment of constitutional monarchy."

"After the establishment of constitutional monarchy, they used the constitution to determine their status."

"Now, the only ones who can contend with the imperial power, besides the Senate, the Cabinet and the military, are actually the four great nobles."

"But the empire under the four great nobles was deeply divided, causing all parties to cling to the imperial power."

Xia Chujian nodded seriously and said, "That is to say, if you can't be one of the four great nobles, there is no point."

Huo Yushen smiled and said, "Do you want to pull down one of the four great nobles and take the throne yourself? Tell me, which one do you have your eyes on? Maybe I can help you."

Xia Chujian declined the offer: "No, no, no, I have absolutely no interest in being a noble."

"Whenever I think of the absolute control that the imperial power has over the nobility, I feel like vomiting."

"None of the four nobles can do that. They are just dogs with a little freedom and no leash."

"Other nobles have dog chains around their necks, but the four great nobles don't."

"But what's the essential difference? They are all dogs of the Dog Emperor."

Huo Yushen didn't say anything else, but he felt even happier.

……

The two men used their mechas to switch to a micro-flying vehicle, which disappeared in the blink of an eye in space.

Two hours later, they arrived at a large wormhole in the Southern Cross star field.

There is already a starship from the Beichen Empire's Fifth Star Fleet parked here quietly.

Huo Yushen took Xia Chujian and switched back to the humanoid mecha, still in stealth mode.

Huo Yushen sent a message to her through the internal communication system of the two-person mecha: "This is the interstellar spaceship. It will enter the wormhole in five minutes. We have to hurry up and get on it."

Xia Chujian followed Huo Yushen and flew towards the interstellar spaceship.

When they were about to reach the interstellar spaceship, Huo Yushen suddenly asked: "You said that you also took this kind of interstellar spaceship to deliver supplies through the wormhole last time, so how did you get into the spaceship?"

Because these interstellar spacecraft that deliver supplies have all been registered with the Special Security Bureau, it is not surprising that Huo Yushen knows the passwords to enter those hatches.

But Xia Chujian didn't have these convenient conditions. How did she get to the top?

Xia Chujian thought, of course I have to rely on my dear family member Qilu!

But how can I tell you?

There was a hint of embarrassment in her tone as she said, "...I just switched the mecha directly to aircraft mode and placed it in the radar blind spot on the roof of this interstellar spacecraft."

Huo Yushen was very surprised: "So you relied purely on the protection of your mecha to pass through the wormhole?!"

"This is too dangerous. Don't do it next time."

In his heart, he felt extremely speechless about Xia Chujian's behavior.

This isn't some kind of micro wormhole that can only accommodate one person!
This is a large wormhole that can pass through an interstellar spacecraft!

The cosmic energy inside and the micro wormhole are growing exponentially!

If a flying vehicle of inferior quality goes in, it will be torn into pieces if it is not careful!

This is truly ignorance being fearless!
It was also thanks to the powerful performance of Su Buyan’s second-generation mecha, otherwise it would have been torn into pieces by this large wormhole!
But, is the performance of the second-generation mecha really that good?

Huo Yushen's own Great Sima Liuguang Golden Mecha has the performance equivalent to that of a second-generation and a half mecha.

But even he wouldn't dare to pass through such a large wormhole relying solely on the mecha...

Huo Yushen looked carefully at the mecha on Xia Chujian. There was no change. It was still black and silver in color, and had the appearance of Shao Siming's mecha.

However, Huo Yushen also knew that the appearance of a mecha could not be used as a physical indicator to judge its performance.

Mechas can be switched into various shapes and colors at will. The physical data that can truly measure the performance of a mecha is the performance data of the metal or alloy used to make the mecha.

Could it be that Su Buyan actually gave Xia Chujian a mecha that is better than his Dasiming mecha?
A trace of doubt flashed through Huo Yushen's mind.

While thinking, the two arrived near a hatch on the top of the starship.

Huo Yushen didn't think any more about it. He stretched out his mechanical arm, entered the password, opened the hatch, and jumped in with Xia Chujian.

This is the second update. There will be a new update at 05:00 in the evening!
PS: I wonder how many of you will have misunderstood the title of this chapter ().
