Walk alone in the abyss

The prince, the second in line heir to the empire.

In the silent hall, Yang Ming suddenly thought of a question.

The emperors of the Sherman Empire all chose mediocre, incompetent and unambitious princes, so does this succession also follow this rule?

If he followed this rule, then Yang Ming would be able to fully understand why a prince who was very likely to inherit the throne would engage in such third-rate actions that were obviously given to others.

That is a big stupid successor!

Boss Yang's thoughts suddenly became clear.

Daphne said: "Memory scans cannot be used as evidence. This is an interstellar general rule. Discussions in the subconscious are likely to be fantasies."

Yang Ming didn't pay attention to her.

Daphne took the initiative to come forward, looked down at Yang Ming: "Can we have a private chat?"

"His Royal Highness doesn't care about her own fame?" Yang Ming asked with a smile.

"This is my plea," Daphne whispered, with a bit of pleading in her eyes, her pitiful appearance made Gris, who was purely eating melons, feel a little unbearable.

The lethality of the imperial diva can only be resisted by the white ghost. ——The vice-chairman of a white ghost fan Galaxy support club thought so.

"bring it on."

Yang Ming stood up and made a gesture of invitation.

Daphne glanced at the two old men, nodded slightly, followed Yang Ming with her head down, and went to the tea room beside her.

Two maids guarded the door and opened the internal shielding device.

"Sit," Yang Ming pointed to the seat opposite the table, but Daphne lowered her head and walked to Yang Ming's side, folded her hands on her thighs, and sat down gracefully.

Yang Ming sized her up and then withdrew his gaze.

Just kidding, he, Boss Yang, has no shortage of women, so how could he be fooled by this woman who looks kind and innocent on the surface, but may actually have a dark belly.

Daphne asked suddenly: "Is messing up the empire good for you?"

"Oh, Your Royal Highness, the lethality of your words is too great."

Yang Ming pretended to exaggerate with emotion:

"I'm going to mess with the empire? Why am I going to mess with the empire? Is there any benefit to me?

"I now have a territory and a noble title, and I only need to wait a year or two. If the space zerg enters an active period, I will usher in a second spring in my career.

"I just dislike those nobles, those nobles who regard the lives of civilians as worse than ants, and they are also targeting me. This is the contradiction between me and the great nobles.

"But I didn't expect that your elder brother, who was supposed to live in peace and stability in Emperor Star, would actually be involved in this incident."

Daphne bit her lips lightly: "What we mean is, don't associate this matter with the heir to the throne. If you continue like this, it will no longer only touch the interests of the great aristocracy."

Yang Ming narrowed his eyes slightly: "I touched the interests of the Sherman family?"

"I must explain this to you. You are a smart man, smarter than I thought."

Daphne whispered:

"I'm not begging you for anything, I want to cooperate with you.

"I have always wanted to cooperate with you. You have the trust and reputation from the common people, and you also have extraordinary power. If we choose to cooperate, we will gain great influence in a short period of time.

"My elders value this influence, and I will gain power and status that I never dared to imagine before.

"Now, I formally invite you, do you want to cooperate?"

Yang Ming crossed his arms, leaned against the expensive solid wood seat, and frowned at Daphne: "I thought, because I snubbed you on purpose last time, you always wanted to conquer me."

"There are factors in this."

Daphne raised her head slightly, as if she was a different person, her pretty face was full of coldness, she said:

"If I need to find a partner to satisfy my desires, this partner should also be the best in the male group, regardless of all aspects."

Yang Ming sneered: "You're too conceited, Daphne. From the moment you decided to become the singer of the empire, I knew that you had ambitions that didn't match your current status."

"Why can't I?" Daphne asked softly.

"Yes, why can't you?"

Yang Ming looked into her eyes and said unhurriedly:

"Because you are so smart, Daphne, your elders, the elite group of the Sherman family, they all come from your age group, your family has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, and they can see it at a glance If you put your mind to it, you fight with them on the road they walked, and the final result can only be bruises all over your body.

"If you become the emperor of the empire, will you be willing to accept the control of your family elders?

"Impossible Daphne, you can't walk up there."

Daphne nodded slightly: "But now I see a little possibility of success, do you want to cooperate? This is the first and last time I ask you."

Yang Ming raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Give me some sincerity first."

"I can tell you unequivocally that I had been informed that they were going to make a move before I came.

"I wanted something wrong with my competitors, so I didn't stop them. My costume was equipped with a high-performance shield generator. This is extremely despicable behavior, I must admit, because I am taking civilians too. My life is my political bargaining chip. In my plan, I will use the image of a victim to launch a counterattack against that elder brother within the family, and he will lose his position as the heir.

"But now, I can't do this. I have to give priority to completing the orders they gave me in order to get more support from them."

Daphne said:

"Is this sincerity enough?"

"Not enough," Yang Ming said, "I can probably guess it."

"Then what do you want?"

"Your handle," Yang Ming said sincerely, "I need to hold your handle, so that I can feel at ease... To be precise, it is a part of peace of mind."

He compared a very narrow area with two fingers.

Daphne said: "Since it's cooperation, then we should hold each other's hand."

Yang Ming asked, "What do you want?"

"Your ancient technology battleship technology, and the network technology team behind you," Daphne said softly, "Apart from that, is there anything else you can make me feel valuable?"

Yang Ming couldn't help laughing: "Then what can you give me?"

"everything."

Daphne spoke softly, she stood up, took two steps towards Yang Ming, and sat sideways on Yang Ming's lap, her soft and white palms like pearls rested gently on Yang Ming's shoulders above, staring at Yang Ming's pupils.

She said softly:

"I need a partner, everything I can get will be half of yours, I will be faithful to marriage and love, self-degradation is not the life I want.

"Now, you just need to help me calm down the public opinion and let my brother go, and we will conclude this contract.

"Hendon, I can give you everything, and I can give you everything you want. We can have love, power and self-worth.

"I've let go of all the pretense and let our trust in each other be purer, okay?"

While speaking, she had already slowly moved closer, and gently closed her eyes, her eyelashes were trembling slightly, and her breathing became very light.

A scent of a lover's heart penetrated into Yang Ming's nostrils, as if a gentle palm was caressing his soul and spirit.

Snapped.

Daphne's face hurt, and then she felt that her waist was being held down by a pair of big hands like iron hoops, and she was lifted directly onto the table.

She looked at the man in front of her in astonishment, and subconsciously covered the right cheek that had just been lightly slapped.

Is the look of disgust on this man's face serious?

"Your Highness, is your abacus too loud?"

Yang Ming took two steps back, kept a safe distance from her, frowned and said:

"Let me listen to you, let me be your help, let me hand over my technical team and ancient technological warships, let my reputation turn into your influence, and then, you want to invade my pure and beautiful world Body.

"You are taking advantage of this co-authorship?

"Is that how sincere you are?

"Don't tell me, you still believe in your bones that men are strong and women are weak. Everyone is equal. The Civil Code of the Empire stipulates that when two people interact happily, both sides must contribute. You..."

Yang Ming clicked his tongue and shook his head helplessly.

"I thought you'd tell me that we'd do something big together to bring down that brother of yours, and that's the end.

"Goodbye, don't talk about cooperation or non-cooperation next time. I'm quite satisfied with the current situation, but it's just a few idiot nobles. I have plenty of ways to deal with them."

With a soft snort, Yang Ming put his hands in his pockets, turned his head and opened the door, and walked out of the electromagnetic shielding light film.

Daphne sat on the table in a daze.

There was some slight pain in the face that was beaten.

...

Seeing Yang Ming come out, several people in the room showed puzzled expressions.

Gris thought that Yang Ming would go in for an hour or two, but he didn't expect it to be over so soon. He smiled and moved closer to Yang Ming, muttering, "You can't do this, idol."

"Stop thinking about it, Her Royal Highness discussed the case with me."

Yang Ming slowly sat back in his seat, raised his legs, and stretched out his hand to the side. 026, who was wearing a tube top and short skirt, immediately stepped forward and sent the latest e-newsletter.

Both Gris and Revell were subconsciously attracted by 026's gravitational field, but they quickly looked away.

The personal assistant of the white ghost is really unusual.

Gries asked: "Then what's the situation now? My boss is asking again, do you want to stand up and help settle public opinion?"

"I am a victim, and the victim wants to stand up to calm public opinion?"

Yang Ming frowned and asked:

"Tell your boss not to go too far. I dare to take a walk in the Skyfury Fortress."

"Okay, then I will reply that you are in a very bad mood and don't want to deal with these troublesome things."

Leiwei pondered a few times, walked behind Yang Ming, lowered his head and whispered in Yang Ming's ear: "Idol..."

"No," Gris frowned, "you have to learn the address too."

"I feel that this is very appropriate." Reville raised his sword eyebrows slightly, and then continued to talk about the business, "Although my suggestion may sound harsh to you, I still want to say that we might as well just take those nobles who committed suicide. In this matter, the successors to the throne are different from those princes, and we are equivalent to directly colliding with the imperial power and the Sherman family."

"Leave us alone, it's me, not you."

Yang Ming smiled and said:

"Don't get involved in this matter. If something happens to me this time, or Saka is hit, just help me take the population away."

Revel said: "It's not a big deal, it's just a population of 10 million. My private fleet can move there a few times, and I can also give them the same treatment as the people of my territory. You... I will do this , Did it provide you with a retreat and strengthen your idea of ​​colliding with them?"

"Yes, but I can thank you."

Revell smiled immediately: "This thank you will be the best gift in my life so far, and I will help you."

Grace frowned slightly.

Good guy, is the youngest earl of the empire with a bright future so good at licking?

The cult of personality is really bad.

He is different. He mainly shows respect for the white ghost mainly because of the tens of millions of membership dues and the continuous salary of the vice president.

"I have two guest rooms upstairs," Yang Ming said with a smile, "Go to bed when you two are sleepy, I will continue to wait for news here."

The old man on the side asked, "Earl Hanton, Your Highness Daphne?"

"She's thinking about life."

As soon as Yang Ming finished speaking, Daphne had already walked out of the reception room, with a faint smile on her lips, as if nothing had happened, she sat on the sofa opposite Yang Ming.

She glanced at Yang Ming, and then lowered her head to look at the network access terminal.

Time moves forward slowly on the scale made by human civilization.

The new Federal CIA has started the runaway mode, set off a tsunami and a landslide across the empire's network, bombarded by nobles, and hundreds of classic cases of nobles abusing civilians involving most of the administrative stars, tearing apart the entire empire. The delicate and fragile self-esteem of the people.

The Imperial Military Intelligence Bureau and the House of Elders have begun to shut down some servers and cut off the network between the planets.

The effect of this trick was completely negative, and it became a direct proof of the official guilty conscience of the empire.

The CIA has infiltrated the empire for hundreds of years. They seized the opportunity at this moment and captured many hidden intelligence personnel and spies.

the people are led;

people are thinking

The people are constantly waiting, as if the hot magma under the earth's crust is looking for an upward gap, and the people's gathered anger is looking for a way to vent.

Some people began to call on the white ghost to stand up and bring justice to the common people.

Yang Ming remained silent, turning a deaf ear to more and more calls.

Because the territory of the empire is too large, the time domains of the main human gathering areas of each administrative planet are different. The late night in the main cities of Saka is the daytime in the prosperous areas of many planets.

The parade intensified, and the collisions between the people and the local security forces became more intense.

Yang Ming kept receiving news from Lu.

The New Federal CIA has mobilized almost all the forces in the empire. At the same time, the intelligence departments of the leading powers in the galaxy, such as the Guell Union and the United States of Freedom, are operating at full speed, and all major cities in the empire have appeared. team.

The tsunami of public opinion has arrived.

There is still no sign of activation of the Empire's total defense system.

Now there are only a few ways to restore calm to public opinion.

Or, the emperor made a public speech and severely punished the mastermind behind it.

Or, the white ghost stands up and finds a way to clear the public grievances.

In the palace.

The old emperor looked at his son standing with his head bowed in front of him with a smile, and asked slowly, "Gahari, did you do it?"

The second in line to the throne, the prince Gehali, who lives in the palace all year round and has the right to enter and leave the emperor's star by himself - this middle-aged man who looks seventy percent similar to the old emperor, hesitation flashed across his eyes, and he looked down. Channel:

"Father, please believe me, it is impossible for me to attack Daphne, she is the younger sister I watched growing up."

The old emperor closed his eyes and took a breath, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times.

He suddenly waved his hand with some annoyance, and said calmly: "In this case, I have a task for you to pick up Daphne. The outside of Emperor Star is a bit messy right now, so don't let her be frightened."

"Yes, father."

Gehali hesitated to speak.

Going to pick up Daphne means going to Saka.

He looked up and saw the sneer on the corner of his father's mouth.

At this moment, Gehali didn't think too much, he bowed his head and took two steps back, turned around and left quickly.

"How did I give birth to such a fool?" The old emperor asked with a frown.

The maids on the side all bowed their heads, not knowing how to answer.
