Star Sea Hunter

When the war in the southern border of the empire is in full swing, there are also murderous intentions lurking inside and outside the imperial capital, and the undercurrent is stirring!

In the Imperial Palace, in the Royal Study Room.

Fang Xu put down the light pen in his hand, and let out a tired breath.

Beside him, Yun Yingxue, who was dressed in a pure white snow-like palace dress, behaved gracefully, and had an unparalleled demure expression, held up the wine bottle on the jade plate and offered it to him with both hands.

"What has Meng Yan been doing lately?" He took a sip and asked in a harmonious voice.

"This child is obsessed with space technology research. Ever since her brother left for the expedition, he has been stuck in the lab and hasn't come back!" Yun Yingxue replied with a slight bow.

Fang Xu laughed bitterly: "This kid, apart from his field of interest, doesn't care about other things. He looks quite like you!"

"Your Majesty..." Yun Yingxue was a little nervous.

"Don't worry, I have no other intentions!" Fang Xu waved his hands, and said with some emotion: "This is a compliment to her! Being sensible and knowing how to advance and retreat is not my own thing, and I will never ask for it! If my children are like this With her like this, I won't have so many troubles!"

Yun Yingxue kept her mouth shut cautiously, she should never be involved in this matter in the court!

Turning her head to see Chief Yan Mengbing walking in, she immediately bowed and said, "If Your Majesty has no other orders, this concubine will leave!"

Fang Xu nodded his head, and when her figure disappeared outside the door, he casually asked, "How is the fight over there? Is there any new news today?"

Manager Yan smiled and said: "It went very smoothly. After many days of fierce fighting, the imperial army has broken through the federal defense line! Recovered all the occupied star domains! Yan Qinghong re-armed the federal border and deployed troops from various places to try to stabilize the position ! But this is no longer helpful, if there is no strong foreign aid to enter, the Federation will continue to lose, it is an undoubted fact!"

"The ability legion performed particularly well in this battle. That kid Yun Haoyu personally killed three peak-level powerhouses of the Federation, and more than 20 demigod-level masters! In addition to the gains of other powerhouses in the Imperial Legion, The federation has lost more than half of its high-end supernatural combat power! It is no longer qualified to confront the imperial supernatural army head-on!"

"That's good!" Fang Xu said gratifiedly, "This child has never disappointed me. Maybe it won't be long before our army can enter the territory of the Federation, and even reach the capital of the Federation, Tierbun Starfield!"

Director Yan said with some concern: "It seems too easy to swallow a big country like this! Those neighboring countries will never sit idly by. If they want to share a piece of the pie, how should the empire respond?"

"In a world of great contention, strength speaks volumes!" Fang Xu snorted coldly, "Want benefits? All right! If you show enough strength, you can naturally do whatever you want! Without strength, it's useless to say anything! My army is stationed there Don't leave, if they want to be capable, please do it yourself!"

"I'm going to decide on the tens of thousands of light-year territory of the Xuanluo Federation! No one should think about it!"

General Manager Yan said: "It's easy to defeat a big country, but it may not be a short-term achievement to completely destroy it! It can't be done in two or three years. In this way, Her Royal Highness's wedding will have to be postponed!"

"This?" Fang Xu thought for a while, "It's nothing. After she is sealed, let her go to the front line! After all, her status is a bit special, and if she accumulates more military exploits, it can also reduce the voices of opposition from the government and the public." !"

Having said that, he stood up, walked around the study twice with a wine bottle in his hand, and asked slowly, "How's the latest movement in the East Palace?"

Director Yan looked solemn, and said in a low voice: "The second prince has become more and more unscrupulous recently! Not only has he bribed and accepted bribes everywhere, he has formed cliques, wooed important officials in the court, and has close contacts with people from the six great families!"

Fang Xu's eyebrows furrowed deeply, a little annoyed and a little disappointed, and said: "This kid is really forgetting himself! I didn't expect too much from him at first, but I don't think he would go so far!"

"Before I thought, as long as his behavior is not too outrageous, since he is also of my blood, it's okay to let him continue to be an idle prince after I clean up the court! But now..."

He didn't continue, but the gloomy look in his eyes had clearly expressed his intentions!

Director Yan's heart shuddered, knowing that Fang Yanren's fate was more ominous this time!Apart from emotion, he didn't say much.

"I wonder when His Majesty plans to do it?" She asked respectfully.

"Just ten days later!" Fang Xu said calmly, "All officials who have contacts with Fang Yanren will be strictly investigated, no matter how high their status was before, they will not be tolerated!"

"I'm thinking about plotting evil right now, hum! I'm not dead yet!"

"Yes, Your Majesty! I will follow your orders!" Rao Shiyan Mengbing had participated in the secret meetings of the Central Committee for many years, and was used to the bloody storms in the court, so he couldn't help feeling chills at this moment.

This time, I don't know how many important people will have their heads killed, their families will be ransacked and their families will be wiped out!

------------------------------ "Your Highness, are you really not thinking about it?"

In the Eastern Palace of the Emperor's Palace, in the secret room, Crassus tried hard to persuade the crown prince on the main seat: "Everyone in the six great families knows about the ambitions of the empire. Your Highness must guard against it!"

The high-spirited Fang Yanren said disapprovingly: "What is there to be prepared for? They are desperate now. Apart from being attached to this king, do they have any other choice?"

"But Your Highness, they are just superficially obedient. This time, they said that they would mobilize the courtiers to jointly sign a letter, asking Your Highness to assist in state affairs and participate in military affairs! In fact, they are putting you on fire!" Crassus said helplessly, "His Majesty the Emperor is now old How could Dingsheng be willing to distribute power to His Highness? In addition to making His Majesty unhappy, how could he agree to it!"

"That's enough, that's enough!" Fang Yanren said displeasedly, "Now that the empire is at war with the Xuanluo Federation, my father has too many things to worry about! As a son, it's only natural for me to share my father's worries! How could his old man be unhappy?"

"You are also from one of the six great families. Why do you hate your own family so much? This is not good! This king is still thinking that when he ascends the throne in the future, he will let you go back to take charge of the Augustine family!"

Seeing that Crassus wanted to say something more, he waved his hand impatiently and said: "Okay, don't mention this matter again! You have been doing a lot of work for this king recently, and it has indeed been a bit hard. This king will give you You take a long vacation, and I will reward you with a few beautiful maids, so you can rest at home and cultivate yourself!"

Seeing the unfamiliar lord in front of him, Crassus's heart gradually became icy cold!

Your Highness, do you know that what you are doing now is playing with fire without leaving yourself a way out!

Look at these days, what kind of people gather around you?Flattery, flattery, flattery!What you like to hear, they will say; what you like to play, they will send you!

Even forcing you to do things that are simply arrogating your duty, you don't even know how to reflect on yourself!

Do you know that the seat you are sitting on now is a volcano!Now that you have sat on it, you should be cautious in your words and deeds, and be careful and prudent, so that you can ensure that you will survive until the day when you reach the peak safely!

But you stretched out your hands everywhere, and now you've turned your mind on His Majesty!This is the way to die!

Sighing in his heart, Crassus couldn't even remember how he got out of the palace gate and returned to his residence.

Seeing him coming back, his butler immediately greeted him and said, "Master, there is a guest who wants to see you and has been waiting in the living room for a while."

"Who is it?" he asked casually.

"Mr. Crassus, I have admired your name for a long time! I hope you don't mind if I take the liberty to visit the door today!" A handsome man dressed in the uniform of the Lieutenant General of the Imperial Security Department came out and said with a smile.

"You are?" Crassus vaguely felt that the other party looked familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while, so he had to ask.

"My humble Luo Hanxing! Now I'm working in the Imperial Security Department!" He laughed, "I want to talk to you about something!"

"Talk? What are you talking about? Could it be..." Crassus' face changed suddenly.

With his IQ, he had already vaguely guessed the whole story, and couldn't help feeling chills in his bones.

"Hehe! Mr. Crassus has always been famous for his resourcefulness! I have been paying attention to you for a long time before!" Luo Hanxing said without changing his smile, "Fang Yanren was able to recruit you to serve under his command. It was a very clever move. Chess! If he could reuse you, he would never be like this today!"

"It's a pity! This guy treats the virtue of talents just like he treats the woman he likes! He spared no expense and dedicated his heart, and finally got it! After a while, the enthusiasm fades away!"

"Mr.'s current situation is like that of a woman who has played with him and has been put into limbo! I heard that if you want to see him now, you have to notify him several times! Am I right?"

The more he said, the uglier Crassus' face became, and in the end he completely cooled down.

"Your Excellency, what do you want to say?"

"It's very simple. I'm here this time to show you a bright way!" Luo Hanxing said seriously, "Leave that trash as soon as possible! I will introduce you to a wise master who is more worthy of support!"

"..."

-------------------------- Yun Family Mansion.

In the study room, Yun Hongchang said to Yun Hui confidently: "Your Majesty made a bad move this time, and actually appointed that trash as the heir apparent! However, this is a rare opportunity for us, isn't it?"

"Can this guy succeed?" Yun Hui asked suspiciously, "Is it worth our effort to support?"

"It would be better if he was incompetent!" Yun Hongchang laughed, "A trash who has no ability to take the position, just sat in that position! He wants to sit for a long time, but also sit firmly! What should we do then?"

"We can only seek the support of powerful forces!" Yun Hui immediately understood what his father meant.

"That's right, if this guy wants to secure his position, he absolutely cannot do without our support! But there is no free lunch in the world, so he will naturally give us something in return, so that our interests can be maximized! Isn't it? "Yun Hongchang said proudly, "I will contact several other patriarchs. It is best to persuade them to unite together to support this guy, let him slowly participate in state affairs, and gradually lift up His Majesty! If all goes well, the crisis of the family can be completely alleviated , don’t have to worry about the dissatisfaction of those old guys anymore!”
