Star Sea Hunter

The Queen Mother's Palace.

In the living room, my mother was sitting at the head, and Zhong Mingrui and his sister were sitting opposite each other, and they had been chatting for a while.On the large crystal table, there are all kinds of exquisite pastries and snacks.

"Mingrui, the dim sum in this palace tastes very good, if you like it, eat more!" The mother looked at her child and said gently.

He nodded with a smile, grabbed a piece of pastry and stuffed it into his mouth.

Zhong Yanying glared at him reproachfully: "Look at your ugly way of eating, how do you look like the prime minister of an empire?"

"Isn't this what I do in front of you! I don't dare outside, otherwise, even if my brother doesn't tell me, those old-fashioned court etiquette officials will not let me go!" He said a little depressed.

My mother laughed and said, "It's no different than being in the folks before. Now that you are an extremely human minister, of course you have to behave properly! Otherwise, wouldn't it be a joke for outsiders?"

"That's right! It's really annoying to be pestered by a group of female officials every day to teach court etiquette!" Zhong Suying felt a little overwhelmed thinking about this, and also complained.

The mother took a deep look at her daughter, and said meaningfully: "Because he is the person next to him, some things are beyond your control! Compared with what you get, what is this grievance?"

"Mom, I know!" Zhong Suying, who has always been a bit savage, surprisingly did not refute, and said somewhat disappointedly:

"He is the lord of a country now, and there are too many things in all aspects. It is impossible to have no rules. Naturally, we have to think a lot for him!"

"It's good if you can think like this!" Mom said happily, "I called you over today because there is something important to discuss with you!"

When Zhong Mingrui heard this, his expression straightened up, and he asked puzzledly, "What's the matter!"

"He told me about your sister's status!" The mother turned to look at her daughter and said, "You should also understand what he means, right?"

She nodded slightly and said, "Mom, please explain to brother!"

It didn't take long, and my mother finished speaking quickly, and then asked Zhong Mingrui, "Son, what do you think?"

Yun Haoyu's consideration was that if Zhong Suying was in charge of the central palace, Zhong Mingrui would have to step down from the position of prime minister of the empire in order to maintain the balance of power in the court.

This is a system issue, not that he can't trust his relatives.After all, the empire is newly established, and all kinds of problems must be taken into account!If such a bad precedent is set because of personal relationships, it is likely to cause some extremely bad consequences in the future!

Just like the ancestors of the Shuofeng Empire, the seven brothers in need struggled up from the bottom of the society, shared weal and woe, and never gave up life or death. Those feelings were definitely not fake!It's a pity that because of this, the public and private are not distinguished, and the national law and family relationship are confused!The six brothers have received so many privileges from their elder brother emperor, it can be said to be rare in ancient and modern times!

At that time, the territories of the six great families enjoyed a series of important powers such as completely independent administration, judiciary, taxation, trade, etc., and the imperial government was not allowed to ask or interfere!You can form your own fleet and supernatural army!Almost equal to six countries in the country!

After the ancestors passed away, the relationship between the second-generation patriarchs and the royal family began to divide, and there were more and more interest disputes!So much so that the second-generation monarch finally had the idea of ​​cutting down the feudal clan in his later years, but unfortunately, because the six great families were united and joined forces to suppress the royal family, it was finally nothing!As a result, the scourge has lasted for thousands of years and cannot be resolved!

Therefore, as far as the Zhong family brothers and sisters are concerned, there can only be one choice for the positions of the Empress of the Empire and the Prime Minister of the Empire!If these two positions fall into the hands of one family at the same time, the impact on the imperial court will be too great!Even a sane courtier would not allow such a situation to happen!

Zhong Mingrui thought for a while, and said softly: "Okay! For the sake of my sister, I will submit my resignation tomorrow, and I won't make it difficult for my brother!"

The younger sister hesitated and said: "But, if you don't sit in this position, who will the new prime minister be? Since we started the incident, you have always been in charge of internal affairs. Once you don't care about this, the new prime minister will , will you be like you, thinking about your brother wholeheartedly?"

"Krasu has a good mind and is also very proficient in politics. He has been serving as the deputy prime minister and participated in the central decision-making. He should be the one!" Zhong Mingrui said.

"He?" The younger sister frowned slightly, and said with some concern: "I heard from Sister Qingyue that he is a distant branch of the Augustine family, but his real identity is not that simple! It is said that his father is An illegitimate son of the previous head of the family!"

"Now that the aristocratic family is seriously injured, it will definitely try to revive the family business. Although there is a brother watching and dare not reveal it, there will be many small tricks in the dark! If he gets that crucial position, it is difficult to guarantee that What are you thinking about helping guys!"

Zhong Mingrui was a little surprised, and pondered: "There is no need to doubt Crassus' loyalty to his brother, but for the sake of safety, it is indeed necessary to plan ahead!"

Mom suddenly said: "Do you want to listen to me?"

"What's your opinion?" The siblings looked at her together.

"I thought, Mingrui, since you are worried, then don't ask to resign! As for you..." The mother looked at her daughter and said, "Do you think that you really need the position of the lord of the palace?" ?"

"This..." My sister didn't know how to answer for a while.

Mom didn't ask her to express her opinion immediately, but continued: "When you were in Mu Yunxing, your father had a good relationship with A Yu's parents and received a lot of help from them. So in the end, when his father went to sea, he You entrusted Ayu to our care, and you also knew it at that time."

"At the beginning, we didn't expect that Ah Yu would have such an achievement today! Even you all have the status of being below one person and above ten thousand people! It can be said that if it weren't for this child, we would still be suffering on Mu Yunxing now. !"

"He is a person who values ​​affection, so he has always taken good care of us, but he never refuses to ask for anything! Needless to say, Mingrui, you are an excellent minister at a young age! Even Suiying, you are here Isn't the position in the harem unmatched? Although you don't have the name of a queen, who would dare to neglect you?"

"Mom! You mean, I should give up this position..." the younger sister said with some embarrassment.

The mother sighed: "Son, you have to understand that whether a woman in the palace lives well or not depends not on her status, but on how much affection the man she serves has for her! Even if she has the dignity of a queen Status, if the emperor doesn’t like it, then it’s nothing! Even a favored court lady is much better than her!”

"You grew up with him and lived under the same roof for so many years. The affection you cultivated since you were a child is your greatest advantage! No one can compare! You are favored by him now because of this and that The queen's seat has nothing to do with it!"

"So, if you take the initiative to give up this position, Ming Rui won't be in trouble! And you won't be less favored by it! The status in the palace is also superhuman. No matter what the empress gives to the one among them Which one has no influence on you at all! This can be said to be a happy ending, what do you think?"

"Mom! I understand!" The younger sister thought for a while, and finally nodded: "Go and tell brother later, I don't want this person anymore!"

"You don't have to worry," Mom said with a smile. "Your brother has never wronged you. If you made sacrifices, he will naturally express himself in other ways. He will never let you down. What else do you mind?"

------------------------------ Zhiyuan Starfield.

Since the collapse of the Shuofeng Empire, the capital of the new regime has moved again, to the Tianhua Starfield!However, since this place was originally the hub of heavy industry in the Shangyu galaxy, it has not been affected too much, and it is still an extremely prosperous and wealthy area of ​​the empire!

Not far from the original imperial palace, in a newly remodeled building complex, is the headquarters of the newly formed imperial "God's Punishment" Legion.

Not long ago, Yun Haoyu had decided to carry out a large-scale rectification of the empire's existing military power, in order to meet the needs of an all-out war in the Star Sea in the future!For this reason, forming a large-scale mixed formation army is a new attempt!

The "God's Punishment" Legion mainly governs 50 newly manufactured "Qianyuan" class warships, 35 elite superpower legions, a large number of special operations forces, and some secret weapons!The commander of the legion is Yang Wentao, and Zhao Qingyang is in charge of the supernatural legion.It currently exists as a strategic strike force for the entire southern border of the empire!

Considering the next step of the empire's strategic offensive, Yun Haoyu has appointed Yang Wentao to take charge of the defense of the entire eastern Shangyu galaxy, and all fleets and supernatural legions in this area are under his control!

"Your Excellency, the emperor has come to order! It was signed by His Majesty himself!"

In the office, the confidential secretary put a letter marked top secret in front of Yang Wentao.

He quickly put down the light pen, picked it up and inspected it carefully, and then put it under the special testing equipment to check the password pattern on the seal, and opened it cautiously after confirming that it was correct.

"Finally... are you going to act?" After reading the secret document, the excitement on the commander's face disappeared in a flash.

After these days have stopped, it is time to take action!And as he expected, His Majesty chose the southern border as his main attack direction!

When attacking the Shuofeng Empire, Tian Xuanhao and a group of former imperial generals played the leading roles. Because he had to sit in the rear, he had no chance to participate in the battle. Even a few days ago, the emperor's capital made great heroes, and he couldn't get away.It is a lie to say that I am not depressed!

For this reason, he has complained to Yun Haoyu several times in private, so this time, letting him take charge of the eastern Shangyu galaxy also meant to appease him.

This place is next to the Monro Galaxy of the Xuanluo Federation, but it is now the territory of the Yilong Empire!The Federation's sphere of influence has been reduced to less than two hundred star fields!The assistance given to them by the Starlight Empire can only help them support for a while longer!It is impossible to turn the tide of battle!

Yang Wentao thought about it for a while, and he already had an idea, and ordered to the biochemical adjutant: "Notify all nearby officers above the rank of the squadron to come to the meeting immediately! There is an important announcement!"

"Yes! Your Excellency!" The adjutant saluted and left.

He slowly rubbed his chin, stared at the huge star map in front of him for a while, and sneered slightly in his heart: Yilong Empire?Ji Yuxuan?You are quite confident in yourself!Do you really think that with the support of a foreign race, no one dares to trouble you?

He even pulled out all his family assets to fight with the Federation, so he was very relieved about his rear!

I'm going to kick your ass now!what can you do
