Interstellar Fairy Tale

Fate is like a compass that keeps turning, you never know where you will end up.

The Emperor's fleet is about to arrive in Holhold, and the **** fleet of the planet has arrived to meet it, and Soran Edrich is listening to the itinerary. For some reason, Soran Edrich temporarily stopped Shang Ping's various courses, and let him understand Holhold's situation instead. He only needed to watch virtual images and read a lot in the room. Shang Ping liked this method very much. He couldn't help but think of the time in the military academy. It's just that Shang Ping was a little confused about the dresses and all kinds of jewelry sent by the emperor's attendant, but in the face of the cold face of the attendant, Shang Ping chose to shut up, and then put the clothes and jewelry. I took them all, and asked the attendant to express my gratitude to the emperor on his behalf.

Regarding the etiquette that Shang Ping made up for, the attendant was not very satisfied, but he was reluctantly acceptable, which made Shang Ping unknowingly less troublesome. After the attendant left, he devoted himself to his study more attentively.

The frontier sphere of influence of the Novi family consists of thirty-six planets. Compared with the Delie family, this number is not much, but these planets are all suitable for human habitation. The huge population and economic prosperity are enough to cause the surrounding lords. Peeping, but the huge star-leading army makes other families who occupy a large number of barren planets can only look and sigh. The larger the sphere of influence, the more planets they occupy, but the less wealth they get. This is the status quo of some frontier planetary lords, but their natural aggression makes them unable to stop their pace, which directly leads to the expansion of the ambitions of some governors. and border instability. Of course, this kind of stupid behavior is only a minority. Most of the aristocratic families who have been in power for generations are relatively smart, and can make a trade-off between the inflated desire for occupation and the benefits obtained.

The ruler of the empire is the Edrich family, the emperor is supreme, and the authority of the emperor must not be violated. Within the allowable range, no one would care about small-scale wars between families for several planets, which is also what the emperor is happy to see. If everyone is in harmony, Soran Edrich should really have a headache.

The main star of Hallhold is like spring all year round, with a resident population of more than 1.5 billion. The main economic source of the planet is grain and economic crops that can be pressed for oil, which is very similar to the farming economy of the primitive earth. The living area of ​​residents is the same as the crop growing area. It is separated, and the residential area also adopts various environmental protection facilities to minimize the discharge of domestic waste. This economic model and way of life have created a good ecological environment for Holhold, and the characters of the planet's residents also appear friendly and peaceful.

Interestingly, the Holholde Galaxy is one of the main sources of troops for the Imperial Fleet. There are not many nobles and civilians who apply for the Imperial Military Academy and the Star Military Academy every year. Perhaps it is because of the warlike element in the nature of the people of the Golden Empire. No matter what their personality is, they cannot restrain their desire for blood and battleships.

Marshal Novi's family surname is Yujia, a noble family that has lasted for thousands of years. Compared with old-fashioned nobles such as the Delie family, the family history does not have an advantage, but the Yuga family has had three imperial prime ministers, ten Two generals, as well as two marshals, are incomparable to the old-fashioned aristocrats centered on luxurious life and court power struggles.

Marshal Novi is the most outstanding family member of this generation, and he has naturally become the lord of Holhold. However, the relationship between this lord and His Majesty Emperor Solan II is somewhat delicate. He has accompanied His Majesty's fleet on many expeditions. , received the emperor's commendation, and seemed to be the emperor's loyal subordinate. In the previous frontier planetary rebellion, he could find his shadow, which puzzled many people, but Soran Edrich did not punish Marshal Novi, and the hostile family forces of the Yuga family could not find him. When they got the chance to point fingers, many people couldn't see the situation clearly and could only stand still, but Count Reichardt was not among them. The Prime Minister of the Empire had already seen the attitude of His Majesty the Emperor towards Marshal Novi and the family behind him. As a result, the daughters of the Yuga family were removed from the list of female officials to be elected at the court. This also directly cut off the opportunity for the Yuga family to enter the Ivan Summer Palace on a large scale. Earl Reichate knew very well that Marshal Novi and his family could gain the emperor's trust, but only within the scope of the emperor's permission. It would be impossible to go further.

Marshal Novi could not dig his heart out for Soran II, but he was always loyal to the empire. This is the rule of all noble families. Because of this, Soran Edrich did not pursue his previous actions. The Earl of Chate was just a warning. Only the Empress Dowager Yilan didn't like Novi from the beginning, and she didn't like her family at all. In the era of Haney III, the women of the Yuga family were never allowed to appear in Ivan. In the position of a female official in the summer palace, on this point, she rarely coincides with Count Reichardt.

Shang Ping didn't know about these aristocratic secret entanglements. He just looked at Holhold's history with an exploratory attitude, and then explored the current power context of the entire Golden Empire. This was the opportunity Soran Edrich gave him, but Shang Ping didn't know what this opportunity represented.

The current situation of Hallhold reminded Shang Ping involuntarily of the distant earth era. This subtle emotional change was well concealed after the attendant informed him that the flagship had entered Hallhold.

Shang Ping's adopter, Edgar, was a standard soldier, but few people knew that he read a lot of philosophy books at the Madoff Military Academy. Edgar once said to the five-year-old Shang Ping: "In one's life, it is impossible for everything to go smoothly, and some changes that one cannot resist cannot be changed with both hands. If you can take such a bad situation calmly, then , nothing can really bring you down."

Edgar was just trying to comfort a bereaved and disturbed child, without considering whether a five-year-old boy could understand the meaning of this sentence. The amazing thing is that Shang Ping not only understood it, but also remembered it firmly. No one knew that the soul of this five-year-old boy had already experienced the vicissitudes of life.

It's very strange. After being given by Goodwill as a bargaining chip to Soran Edrich, Shang Ping's mind went blank when he was angry. In his own mind, Shang Ping felt that this was a kind of irony. In any case, this kind of belated self-comfort can be described as an afterthought or an afterthought.

During the trip to Namu, he was sent to the emperor's side. What will happen when he enters Hallhold this time?

Thinking about it carefully, the current situation is not bad. Being able to swagger on the frontier planetary land of the Golden Empire is no less than a dream for a Mars soldier. Shang Ping doesn't know if he should thank Soran Edrich. As soon as this idea appeared, Shang Ping's mind immediately appeared in the mind of a term of the earth era, Stockholm Syndrome.

Look how boring he is.

Soran Edrich rejected the emperor's honor guard arranged by Marshal Novi, and took the land vehicle as in Namushi. The vehicles of the entourage formed a long line behind the emperor. People sprinkled flowers all over the driveway with brick red carpet, cheers to the emperor, the falling flower rain, and the residents of the planet dressed in traditional costumes singing and dancing, Shang Ping felt a sense of disobedience, this is really himself The golden empire planet full of aggression in its eyes? Namu's fanaticism and militarization, and Holhold's flowers and laughter, the existence of such contradictions may only appear in the vast empire's territory.

This is just a corner of the border of the Golden Empire! Shang Ping began to feel panic, is such a terrifying behemoth really real? Can it really be defeated?

The emperor's convoy arrived at the lord's mansion very easily. Shang Ping didn't follow Soran Edrich's side. His black hair and height were too different from those of the imperial soldiers. Although Shang Ping had worked hard to grow two centimeters, he reached 180 centimeters, which was infinitely close to Mars XVI. The average height of a young boy, but in the eyes of the Golden Empire, he is still a dwarf. Even the court attendant was much higher than Shang Ping. In the middle of a group of light-haired, tall emperor's entourage, a small black-haired man suddenly appeared, which would look very strange.

Soran Edrich, though self-willed, will not go his own way out of time.

Shang Ping has been following the special person arranged by the court attendant, and several of his teachers are also in the group, which makes Shang Ping look very inconspicuous. After walking off the flagship, he was arranged to board the third-to-last land vehicle of the Emperor's convoy. The convoy left the welcoming crowd and entered the lord's mansion. The receptionist looked at the black-haired boy who suddenly appeared and seemed a little overwhelmed. In what capacity should he be arranged.

Soran Edrich's attendant came over and said to Shang Ping with a reserved attitude in indifference, "Your room has been arranged, please come with me."

The reception staff of the lord's mansion looked at each other in dismay, and they were able to let the emperor's attendant arrange it in person. What is this person's identity? Until Shang Ping was sent to the room to the right of Soran Edrich, the shock of everyone in the lord's mansion could not be concealed. The first room on the right side of the emperor's bedroom was only the concubine or the emperor's favorite lover. to live!

But, this black-haired boy?

Also, is he an adult?

In the eyes of everyone's astonishment, Soran Edrich's attendant calmly retreated from Shang Ping's room. Looking at the stunned receptionist of the lord's mansion behind him, he frowned indistinctly. Mesa's frontier planet, such a rude behavior!

Shang Ping didn't know what kind of changes this trip to Holhold would bring to his future life. Now, he just wanted to take a comfortable hot bath, threw himself on the soft bed, and have a good rest.
