Traveling through the infinite wasteland

The strong man's face was full of horror and disbelief. The corpse stood there for a few seconds before falling straight down and dying with its eyes open!

Annabell stretched out her hand, and the black light and the white rainbow returned to her white palm and disappeared!

The palace guards on both sides of the gate still strictly adhere to their posts, all of them expressionless! I turned a blind eye to the scene just now, as if nothing happened!

She stepped into the palace gate and walked there in a familiar way. No one with a blind eye dared to stop her along the way!

Deep in the inner courtyard of the palace, a handsome and heroic young man in his twenties was half-kneeling in front of a couch, saying something sadly.

On the couch was a majestic old man wearing a golden robe, with wrinkles on his face, extremely thin, and looking very old. At this time, he was closing his eyes slightly and saying nothing, as if he was listening to the young man's words, but also seemed to be in a trance!

Several chambermaids were waiting attentively, ready to be called upon at any time.

There was also a slightly fat man in his forties at the door. He seemed to have good features and a graceful bearing! He's just a little frail, his eyes are a little erratic, and his appearance and demeanor are much worse than the one over there!

He just stood at the door, watching the young people performing hard there, and also thinking about what to say, but he seemed a little timid and hesitant. For a moment, I didn’t understand either advancing or retreating!

"...Father, my son is really not willing to give in! In terms of talent and knowledge, fierce fighting ability, and contribution to the empire, in what way is my son inferior to that second brother? But just because he was born a few years later than him. In the year, this big position will definitely be his! Why?"

The young man cried out in tears. Now the critical moment has come. The old emperor is in poor health and is getting worse day by day. According to the news secretly revealed to him by his confidants in the chamberlain, it may be in the next few days! Therefore, he had no choice but to take advantage of his father's love for him and use all his strength to launch a family offensive to force his father to change his mind before he died!

The person on the couch is Anderson Till Rockefeller, the emperor of the Rockefeller Empire, the second most powerful country in the star sea world after the Gners Rock Empire!

Although the fierce fighting power of this empire is not the strongest, its royal family has the longest history! Its origins can even be traced back to the great race of the Earth Age!

After human society entered the interstellar age, many ancient races that were once prominent on the earth have declined one after another. However, the fate of this race is as prosperous as ever! The power became stronger and stronger, and the Yuan Dynasty was founded thousands of years ago. The glory of the family race continues to this day!

At a time when the human world is undergoing unprecedented changes in a thousand years, Old Anderson is certainly not willing to let the legacy of the empire and royal family disappear! So we began to plan a unification plan!

After annexing hundreds of surrounding small and medium-sized countries, he set his sights on the neighboring Black Republic!

After several years of fighting, the Rockefeller Empire has gained a greater advantage, and it is no longer an unattainable dream! However, Anderson was old in the end, and he worked hard day and night on state affairs, coupled with his extravagant private life, which finally emptied his body!

After the old emperor fell ill, a storm began to brew in the court. All forces worked hard to gain as many benefits for their own camp in the process of changing dynasties!

There are seven adult princes and princesses in the royal family, based on the ranking of eldest and youngest, their own talents, the power of their mother race, their contribution to the empire, the support they can get from close forces, and a series of other reasons! Currently, the ones calling for the loudest are the second prince, Weig Rockefeller, and the eleventh prince, Arden Rockefeller!

In terms of personal ability alone, Arden is undoubtedly the most outstanding among this generation of royal children, and is known as the most dazzling star in the empire!

His temperament and appearance are very much like the young Anderson, and he is also the youngest heir. He has a son at an old age. The emperor is very happy, and his doting on him is far more than that of his elder brothers!

It's a pity that his mother-in-law is just an ordinary palace maid! No matter how outstanding he is, his humble background has become his fatal weakness! In addition, he is still young and has not had time to build a strong enough force in the court to support himself. Because of this, he always competes with his relatively mediocre second brother!

I guess if there are still a few years left, we can start planning slowly! Why don't you let that useless second brother take your seat! Unexpectedly, the emperor suddenly fell ill and all plans were disrupted! Coming here to cry and beg this time is a helpless act!

At this time, Annabel had already arrived outside the door. When she saw the scene in the cabin, a look of horror flashed in her eyes!

As soon as Weig Rockefeller saw his first wife arriving, he seemed to have a backbone and came forward excitedly.

"It'll be great if you come back!" He looked at her earnestly and said, "I heard that my father assigned you to patrol the front lines. Why did you come back so soon?"

"A big thing happened over there in the Prison Soul Star Sea, so I have to rush back and ask my father for advice!" Annabell said casually. Seeing that Arden was still kneeling and crying, anger surged in his heart, and his voice Feeling colder:

"What are you still doing here? That guy is trying to trick my father into changing his mind! You are the real boss, but I didn't expect that you would stay aside and watch the show like a harmless person! What if my father really softens his heart? You have changed your mind, let me see how you deal with it!"

Faced with the accusation from the Crown Princess, Wei Ge shrank his neck and said with some embarrassment: "Aden... is a little too much! But after all, I am the eldest prince of my father, and I have a very good foundation in the court. Stable! With the support of my mother-in-law and uncle, how can my father let go so easily?"

"We must not take things lightly until the last moment!" Annabel frowned and glanced at him angrily.

"When a person is about to die, his thoughts are the most elusive! Any accident may happen! If you don't stay by your father's side at this time, you might really let that kid overturn the situation, and then you will become an empire. The laughing stock!”

"I... I'm not interested! Is it possible for this great leader of the empire to cry? How come Arden's little trick, my father is so wise, might not be enough?" Weig was still unconvinced, and whispered for himself One defended.

"Of course there is no effect when others cry, but he is different!" Annabel sighed softly, looked at her man, and there was an obvious look of disappointment in her eyes.

On the bed, the old emperor finally opened his eyes, turned his head and looked at his favorite son, and said with a soft smile:

"Adun, my child! It's not that I don't want to fulfill your wishes, but you are still too young. Although your talents are far better than your brother! However, as a successful king, you need too many things! And you , does not fully meet these conditions!

If I still have ten years left, I will definitely leave this burden to you! It's a pity that I don't have time anymore! The empire has no time! Can you understand your father's difficulties? "

Although the ability of the second prince Wei Ge cannot be said to be outstanding, it is still above the qualified level! It’s just that my mind is a little weak and henpecked! His mother was the old emperor's favorite concubine, and his uncles held great power. In addition, they had been in business for a long time, so they had many supporters in the court!

Apart from Arden's outstanding abilities, there is nothing else that can compare to the second prince! His mother came from a humble background and had no power to help him! There are many new officials in the court who reward him, but there are not many who are willing to put the treasure on his side!

More importantly, Weige has an extremely powerful princess, who is the legitimate daughter of the imperial prime minister. She is always shrewd, capable, decisive, and has first-class abilities! Coupled with his father's huge network of contacts, his position in the court is very important!

Weige has been able to keep his position as the crown prince for so many years. The unremitting support of Annabel and his family played a vital role!

If the old emperor can drag on for a few more years, there is still some hope for Arden, but currently, nothing is used!

Therefore, the current Yaden has been forced into an embarrassing situation with no choice! When the old emperor dies, he, the most favored prince in the past, may not even be able to save his life! Apart from coming here to cry and beg and play the family card, what else can he do?

Seeing that he was still trying to figure out what to say, the old emperor waved his hand and said with a tired expression: "Okay, you go back first! Let me take a closer look!"

Arden stood up helplessly, bowed and then slowly retreated for a while.

Staring at his back, the old emperor shook his head, sighed slightly unhappily, and whispered: "My child, if only you had been born a few years earlier, there would be no such disputes as today! Nowadays, the world of Xinghai is facing troubled times. The potential crisis in the empire is not small! There are some things that I am really... in a dilemma!"

At the door, Arden saw his brother and sister-in-law standing at the door, staring at him with disdain!

Even though he was unhappy, he was unwilling to break up completely at this time, and still maintained impeccable politeness and said hello without any hesitation!

Wei Ge didn't have any obvious hostility, he just said a few polite words in a cold yet reasonable manner! However, the attitude of the princess about him was much more direct!

"These past few days, you have been crying in front of my father! It's really hard for you!" She mocked,

"I don't know if my father has changed his mind? Are you expecting to gain an empire by relying on the offensive of tears? Huh! What an anecdote for the ages!"

Arden's face remained unchanged and he said calmly: "You can't say that what you said is completely unreasonable. However, I always believe that with my ability, I am qualified enough to inherit the empire, and I am more qualified than the second emperor brother. Then my father has not yet A great undertaking completed!

With his father's wisdom and martial prowess, he wouldn't be able to see anything more than this! I firmly believe that within these few days, my father will definitely figure it out! "

"Huh? You feel pretty good about yourself!" Annabel said scornfully, "Your Highness Arden, the imperial artifact is not something someone like you can get your hands on! I advise you to announce your withdrawal as soon as possible, considering that you are also of royal blood. For the sake of you, I will let you be an idle prince later, and you will live in peace and contentment from now on! Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude!"

"The overall situation is still undecided. Do you think you are qualified to pronounce my fate now?" Arden frowned slightly and said calmly.

"Your fate was determined from the moment you were born!" Anabel said in a sharp and aggressive tone:

"You almost have the ability to be an emperor, but ability is not everything that determines your destiny! You are not destined to be an emperor at all, because you are not lucky! There are some things that you didn't have when you were born, and you will never have it in the future. Got it!"

Arden trembled, his face finally became cloudy, and he clenched his fists unconsciously.

Annabel raised her head proudly, glanced at him disdainfully, turned around and entered the door.

The old emperor was leaning on the couch, planning to take another nap when he heard familiar footsteps. When he opened his eyes, he saw her coming in, and a smile appeared on his old face like dry tree bark.

"Annabel, you're here! Is there something important?" He said gently, raising his hand gently, and the two palace maids quickly came forward and helped him sit up.

The Crown Princess saluted gracefully, and then said respectfully: "Father is right, something big has indeed happened! It will almost affect the empire's future strategic plan!"

"Oh?" The old emperor's expression became serious, and a captivating light suddenly burst out from his dim eyes. His sharp and fierce aura made even the princess, whose eyes were higher than her head, feel a little guilty. Find the bookstore www.zhaoshuyuan.com

The man in front of me is, after all, a hero who has controlled the empire for many years! Although he is already old, as long as he does not die, he will still be the supreme ruler of the empire! This is a fact that no one can deny!

"Tell me! What is going on?" He waved his hand gently, signaling all the maids to retreat for a while, and closed the palace door, so Fang asked.

"That's it! Over there in the Prison Soul Star Sea..." Annabel opened the suitcase, took out a document and presented it to him, and described the situation he had observed in detail.

The old emperor listened attentively, occasionally interjecting a few questions.

"...That's it! I don't know what you want to do, father!" Annabel finally said.

He pondered for a while and then said slowly: "This guy Feilousis has worked hard for several years and finally got it done! But he never thought that he had taken advantage of others. How can he survive such a blow? ?”

Annabel said: "Emperor Philosis is approaching the end of his life, and many forces in the country have begun secret activities to prepare for the change of dynasty!"

The old emperor said with mixed feelings: "This guy is almost my old rival for many years! In Yingwu's life, he has never suffered any big losses. It is estimated that he will encounter the danger of national subjugation in his later years! Alas!"

He coughed slightly and his eyes drifted to the small table aside. Annabel quickly took the tea cup from it and presented it to him.
