Chapter 141 Thirteen Border Stars
Barr:?
Bal retracted his outstretched hand as if nothing had happened. Looking at Lu Yanjing's attentive profile, he silently cursed him as a dead licker in his heart.
The moment of handshake was fleeting, and Nan Zhiyan glanced at Lu Yanjing.
He asked the adjutant behind him to take people to coordinate the work, and Nan Zhiyan went directly to the office.
Lu Yanjing was only an inspector in title, and he could not interfere in the specific affairs of the Seventh Legion.
Seeing Nan Zhiyan go to the office, Lu Yanjing shamelessly followed him.
An entire wall of the huge office is covered with interstellar geomancy maps.
The few red-marked planets made Lu Yanjing pause, and then his expression became serious.
"Ayan, are you planning to take back the Thirteen Border Stars?"
The thirteen border planets originally belonged to the empire's territory, but a hundred years ago, the royal family declined and the nobles did not have complete power. The Kant Empire took advantage of the situation and seized the thirteen planets on the border of the empire.
This also includes three energy mining stars.
Of course, the Empire wants to take back the thirteen border stars, but the development of the Kant Empire is no weaker than that of the Empire.
Several attacks have been launched in recent years, but neither side has reaped any benefits and the situation has remained deadlocked.
"Um."
Nan Zhiyan nodded. As long as she could take back the thirteen border stars, she would be successfully promoted to the highest commander of the empire.
Five years was enough time for everything she had arranged to run successfully.
“It’s too dangerous.”
It was rare for Lu Yanjing not to smile at Nan Zhiyan. When he was blasted off the primitive star, it was all due to the Kant people.
It was because of their previous dealings that Lu Yanjing knew how difficult that group of people were to deal with, and he didn't want to see Nan Zhiyan get hurt.
"If you want to be promoted, I can..."
"This is my own business."
Nan Zhiyan interrupted Lu Yanjing. She knew what Lu Yanjing wanted to say, but she needed this war, not only for promotion, but also to win the support of the people.
The badge of the Seventh Legion was hung on the chest of the silver-white military uniform, reflecting a cold light under the cold light.
Lu Yanjing was stung and shut his mouth.
"Do you need my help with your father's matter?"
Without Nan Zhiyan's permission, Lu Yanjing usually would not investigate or interfere in the affairs of the Taran family. However, this time, in the selection of the Land Construction Management Department, Nan Wenqi used the name of the Uraf family.
Although the Taran family was originally a vassal of the Urlav family, the Land Construction Management Department was not under the jurisdiction of the Urlav family.
Lu Yanjing was not afraid of offending the Huo Laiyin family, but he was not sure whether Nan Zhiyan knew that Nan Wenqi did this.
"Need not."
Nan Zhiyan shook his head and rejected Lu Yanjing's proposal.
Yes, no matter what his Ah Yan does, he never asks others for help.
But this feeling of being unwanted made Lu Yanjing's already anxious and fearful mood even worse.
It was as if, as long as Nan Zhiyan wanted, she could leave him at any time. After all, even if Nan Zhiyan married him, she would not rely on him, but on the title of Ulaf.
If he was not the heir of the Ulaf family, Nan Zhiyan might never have even looked at him in his life.
When leaving, Lu Yanjing still left behind detailed strategic information about the Kant Empire.
Nan Zhiyan may not need it, but this seems to be the only thing he can do for Nan Zhiyan at the moment.
Looking at the information uploaded by the terminal, Nan Zhiyan was stunned for a moment.
After his mother's death, Nan Zhiyan not only hated Nan Wenqi, but also had resentment towards the Uerlaf family.
If my mother had not been sent to the Uraf family, she might not have gone crazy or died.
Whether directly or indirectly, anyone who kills my mother must pay the price.
The fingertips holding the stylus in his hand gradually turned white, and the color of his eyes darkened.
The lonely space was eerily quiet at this moment.
Five years later, in Urlav, the capital of the Imperial Star.
"Did you see it? Did you see it?"
"What are you pushing for? I haven't even seen Commander Nan yet!"
"You're still the commander, now you should be called the general."
…………
The busiest street in Urlav A District was bustling with people, and the giant screen in the sky was reporting the news that the thirteen border stars had been successfully recovered.
Along with it was the figure of a woman in military uniform.
Royal guards blocked the streets leading to the palace on both sides, and several salutes were fired in the sky above Area A.
Since the previous king was forced to abdicate due to public opinion three years ago, Prince Pascal no longer had any hope of succeeding to the throne. As the prince's daughter, Una was naturally pushed onto the throne.
The newly appointed king was indeed capable. He was able to humble himself and form an alliance with the House of Commons, and he actually snatched back some of the rights that were originally supposed to belong to the royal family from the nobles.
And he made no secret of his dislike for the nobles, which was probably why the House of Commons was willing to do its utmost to support the new king.
After all, officials in the House of Commons are almost all of common origin.
But for Nan Zhiyan, it was an exception. The new king seemed to admire this general who had recaptured the Thirteen Border Stars for the empire, even though the other party was also a noble.
People on Starnet are discussing that Nan Zhiyan might be granted a title when he returns this time.
But some people denied this speculation. Nan Zhiyan was already a member of the Urlav family, and he himself was the heir of the Taran family. How could he be given a title again?
But no matter what the Star Network speculated, no one disrespected this general who took only four years to recapture the thirteen border stars.
To be personally welcomed by the king is already a great honor in the eyes of ordinary people.
This cheer reached its peak the moment Nan Zhiyan appeared.
Unlike the world-renowned wedding five years ago, this time the glory and cheers belonged only to Nan Zhiyan.
Compared to the reputation of the Ulaf family and the Taran family placed on her, Nan Zhiyan herself seemed more dazzling at this moment.
Her long, jet-black hair was cut short the moment she entered the military, and her originally beautiful face unconsciously took on a heroic and murderous air.
The indifference between the brows was completely neutralized, but the aura was still not ostentatious or aggressive.
Instead, it is introverted and peaceful, but it will not make people ignore the existence of human beings.
Nan Zhiyan has changed a lot. Except for Lu Yanjing, this is the first thought of everyone else after seeing Nan Zhiyan.
During these five years, Lu Yanjing was able to find excuses to visit him from time to time, but everyone else could only look forward to Nan Zhiyan's return.
But no matter how much they hoped, Nan Zhiyan never came back once in these five years.
Even the messages sent to Nan Zhiyan's terminal fell on deaf ears.
The last time they heard from Nan Zhiyan was during the Battle of Feiyo two years ago, when Nan Zhiyan went to the front line and suffered serious injuries.
Lu Yanjing, who was preparing for the change of term at that time, went to the military headquarters without looking back after hearing the news, and thus missed the handover ceremony of the ruling ministers.
