star wars civilization.

After Zi Yuanshang listened to Shen Zheng's words, she was stunned. _!~;

"Why, I'm so happy that I don't know what to say?" Shen Zheng asked half-jokingly.

"This is a good thing!" Shen Ying clapped her hands and shouted, "Aren't you and Patriarch Qiu longing to be together again? Isn't it a great opportunity for His Majesty to accomplish this?"

"Yes." Xue Su nodded. "Congratulations."

"If there was a lot of resistance to your union before, then when His Majesty nodded in agreement, that resistance has disappeared." Qiu Yunzhi said with a smile. "Congratulations."[

"But...but..." Zi Yuanshang looked at Shen Zheng, so excited that he didn't know what to say.

"It's nothing." Shen Zheng smiled, "Your Majesty has already promised that he will do his best to facilitate your marriage. No matter who objects, he will insist—this is what he personally promised me."

"I can't believe it..." Zi Yuanshang cried, tears dripping down in rows.Seeing this, the four girls couldn't help feeling sentimental in their hearts.

"Old Zi Yuan, are you too happy?" Xuejun Xiangji asked timidly.

"Yes, yes!" Zi Yuanshang was very excited, and his body trembled.

"I have already asked the emperor to send someone to invite Patriarch Qiu." Shen Zheng said, "At the court meeting tomorrow, His Majesty will announce the grant of marriage. You must be prepared, and don't lose your composure when the time comes."

"I understand!" Zi Yuanshang nodded hurriedly.

She looked at Shen Zheng for a long time, and after a while she said gratefully: "Shen Zheng, thank you, really!"

"You're welcome." Shen Zheng smiled faintly, rejoicing in his heart that he could help his friend get happiness.

There is no difference between day and night in the secret realm, but there is the concept of "sky", but that is not based on the light and darkness of the sky as the boundary, but in terms of the time established in the secret realm.Every thirty hours is a full day.

After the time passed, the time for the court meeting finally arrived.With an indescribable excitement, Zi Yuanshang participated in this unusual court meeting with all the elders of the Elders' Association - of course, that was only for her.

After some routine government affairs discussions were over, Yue Mingguang shifted his gaze to Zi Yuanshang, and then smiled.

"Everyone, apart from normal government affairs, I have one more thing to announce today," he said.Immediately, the eyes of all the princes and ministers were focused.

"Elder Zi, as the youngest elder in the Elders' Association, bears the burden of two big families on his shoulders." Yue Mingguang said in a gentle voice, "For a long time, she has always shown herself as a strong woman, but I know how much she has endured." pain. I think, as an emperor, we must understand the sufferings of our courtiers and help them solve their problems.”

"Yes.|^" All the princes and ministers did not understand what he meant, but they also nodded in agreement.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern." Zi Yuanshang saluted respectfully.

"Old Ziyuan, I heard that you have a childhood friend?" Yue Mingguang asked with a faint smile.

"This..." Zi Yuanshang hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded vigorously. "That's right. He is the Patriarch of Autumn Sky Light, and his name is Qiu Jiu."

"I also heard that the two of you are already in love with each other, right?" Yue Mingguang asked with a smile. [

"Yes... yes..." Zi Yuanshang blushed slightly and nodded.

Many people exclaimed and whispered.

"I intend to perfect the two of you and make you a husband and wife, what do you think?" Yue Mingguang asked with a smile.

Zi Yuanshang trembled excitedly.Although she had prepared for a long time, when Yue Mingguang said it himself, she still couldn't help herself.

"Your Majesty... I..." She looked at Yue Mingguang excitedly, but the words she wanted to say out loud were stuck in her throat, and she would come out no matter what.

"How are you?" Yue Mingguang asked with a smile.

"Your Majesty!" At this moment, Xuanyu Liuguang's voice sounded.The chief elder stood up with a sullen face. "I object!"

"What?" Yue Mingguang frowned slightly.

The rest of the princes and ministers couldn't help discussing in astonishment.This kind of matter is a private matter, and if the emperor intends to accomplish it, no one should object, and Xuanyu Liuguang stepped forward at this time, it is inevitable that people will think that he is deliberately contradicting the emperor.

"Your Majesty, if Elder Zi Yuan is just an ordinary minister, then I will support your decision with both hands." Xuanyu Liuguang said slowly. "But her identity is different. She is the elder of the Council of Elders, the elder who can decide many major events in the empire! And her gender determines that she cannot be like any other elder. When making any decisions, she is not affected by the family. Influence."

As he said that, he turned to a group of ministers: "We all know that women are emotional creatures, and in many cases they cannot be as rational as men, especially when it comes to love, women have no resistance. If a woman desperately longs for love A woman who is an important elder of the empire, everyone, think about it, what will happen to the man behind her?"

A group of ministers thought about it, and gradually some people agreed with Xuanyu Liuguang's statement and nodded.

"Not bad!" A minister stood up. "Men are all ambitious. Elder Ziyuan will marry a patriarch who holds great power. It is hard to guarantee that Elder Ziyuan will not be swayed by his husband and affect the decision-making of the Council of Elders. Your Majesty, this is not just A simple personal marriage is even more important to the empire."

"Indeed." More and more ministers nodded.At the beginning, they were only ministers related to the Xuan family, but later on, almost everyone nodded along.

Yue Mingguang couldn't help but frowned, quietly looking at Shen Zheng standing below.Shen Zheng looked at Ming Yuebai, obviously he knew what Ming Yuebai could say at this time.

"This matter is actually simple." Sure enough, as Shen Zheng expected, Ming Yuebai suddenly smiled and said.All eyes focused on him at once.

"If Elder Zi Yuan really loves that man deeply and is willing to be with him, then give up power for him." He said slowly. "As long as Elder Zi Yuan is no longer an elder, won't there be no such troublesome problems? Whoever she wants to marry at that time is only her own business."

As he spoke, he looked at Zi Yuanshang: "Am I right?"

Zi Yuanshang was stunned. She looked at Mingyuebai and remained silent for a long time.

But the other ministers nodded one after another, agreeing with Ming Yuebai's statement.Shen Zheng looked at Mingyuebai and smiled lightly.

He had known that Ming Yuebai would be willing to facilitate this matter, and he had already guessed that Ming Yuebai would use this method.Speaking of it, he and Mingyuebai are not friends, but potential enemies of each other. Although the two join forces temporarily, their hearts are not together.If there is a chance to weaken the opponent, neither of them will let it go.

And in front of him, there is an opportunity to weaken his own strength - no matter what, Zi Yuanshang is the elder of the elders' association and has the highest status.And if she could lose her status as a veteran, it would be tantamount to weakening her own strength. [

Ming Yuebai will not let go of this opportunity.

"The Generalissimo is right." Shen Zheng looked at Zi Yuanshang and spoke slowly. "Elder Zi Yuan, although His Majesty's intentions are kind, you must agree to it. Are you willing to give up your position as a senior elder for the sake of Patriarch Qiu?"

Zi Yuanshang's eyes slowly moved to him, and what he saw in the other's eyes was firmness.

"Your Majesty." She stopped her head slowly, looking at the moonlight. "Thank you for your concern. I do!"

There was a burst of discussion in the hall, and everyone was surprised.In their view, love is far less important than the status of the elders. Zi Yuanshang once integrated the two families with an iron fist. He is a strong woman among women, so he should value power over love.

But at this time, she actually gave up everything, which made everyone incomprehensible.

Shen Zheng smiled.

He understands.

From the beginning, Zi Yuanshang was not fighting for power, she was just fighting for responsibility.

She wanted to keep her family alive and shoulder the burden of protecting her family, so she gave up on herself.

She was originally not chasing a part of power.

Now, Ziguang Xinghui has become a big family, whether it is the original Zi family or Xinghui family, they have formed a new powerful family, and they no longer need to sacrifice anyone for their own stability.

She can already let go, she can let go of everything she doesn't like, and chase what she likes.She no longer thinks about those responsibilities and obligations at this time, she just wants to be like a normal woman, have a good love, and throw herself into the arms of her lover.

"Okay." Yue Mingguang smiled. "Then all problems are gone. I now officially announce that Zi Yuanshang will be removed from the position of veteran and appointed as the newly established director of the Police Department. The next thing we have to consider is to help Zi Yuan hold a grand wedding , and... re-electing a veteran."

As he spoke, he cast his eyes on Shen Zheng.

At this moment, Ming Yuebai suddenly felt a sense of crisis.

Shen Zheng smiled lightly.He had expected this ending.

Yue Mingguang is not an idiot, he has his own calculations, Shen Zheng does not believe that he will be led by the nose by others.If he is such a person, then the throne may have been lost long ago.

Xuanyu Liuguang also frowned: "Your Majesty, we haven't discussed the issue of the police investigation and police station with the Council of Elders yet..."

"Then let's start the discussion." Yue Mingguang suddenly interrupted him. "The results must be given to me within three days!"

As he spoke, he stood up directly and strode towards the inner palace.The court meeting broke up.

"Congratulations." Ming Yuebai came over and congratulated Zi Yuanshang. "It is really a blessing to have a lover for whom you are willing to give up power."

"Thank you." Zi Yuanshang smiled sincerely.

"Congratulations to you too." Ming Yuebai looked at Shen Zheng, "Maybe the new elder is you."

"Stop joking." Shen Zheng smiled and waved his hands. "It's better to be the generalissimo to be the elder."

"That's impossible." Ming Yuebai shook her head. "The military and the government are not one. The Council of Elders was born to restrain the military power and at the same time assist His Majesty in governing the country. Therefore, neither the military nor the royal power can intervene in it."

"Then let's wait and see who His Majesty will promote." Shen Zheng said.

After leaving the palace and returning to his jazz mansion, Zi Yuanshang also followed.As soon as he entered the mansion, Shen Zheng got a report from the housekeeper: "Patriarch Qiu of Light in the Autumn Sky has arrived."

"I'm going to see him right now." Shen Zheng smiled, "He must be very happy to know the news, right?"

"No." The butler said awkwardly, "He...he was very anxious and a little angry."

"What?" Shen Zheng suspected that he had heard wrong.
