Hosea: “I didn’t intend to do anything.”
Horace half-squinted his eyes and looked at Hozia. Since he took over the throne and gained real power, no one dared to speak to him in this tone, except Hozia. But he could tolerate it because Hozia was his beloved brother. "Why did you use space technology to bring people from the Federation here?"
Hosea: "Of course, we negotiate with them about buying and selling technology and making money from them."
Horace: "..."
Hozia spread his hands, looking helpless: "Hoyt has sold a lot of space keys, and various countries have bought them back for research and analysis. It is only a matter of time before they are cracked.
"Even if we sell it to the federation, it will be a good deal.
"Do you think I'm right, brother?"
Horace: "..."
Horace knew it was difficult to refute. After all, he did have special feelings for the Federation. He had stood on the Federation's side many times during the interstellar council when the Federation and Rick were in conflict. It was undeniable that he did so for personal reasons. "What are you doing at the Silver Palace?"
Hoqia's mouth twitched, and he pouted and said in a teasing tone: "What a bunch of good dogs, what am I going to do in the Silver Palace? Others don't know, but don't you know?"
Horris paused, his deep eyebrows slightly raised, his natural aura was so overwhelming that it was hard to breathe.
Hozia said calmly, "I just want to meet him. He was so small when he was born, but now he is taller than me."
As he spoke, he observed the expression on Horace's face. Although Horace hid it well, Hozia still keenly caught a hint of emotion in Horace's eyes.
As expected, when Ji Rong was mentioned, Horace's indifferent face finally showed some expression. Ho Qia smiled and said to the imposing man in front of him, "My birthday is in three days. I have invited all the students who came to China to participate in the competition this time, including Ji Rong. If you want to see him, remember to come."
Horace: "..."
Hozia chuckled, knowing Horace's worries, he stared at Horace with his beautiful peach eyes and said, "Don't worry, it's a masquerade, you need to wear a mask, you can get a more ordinary one, we won't let you go on stage. It's my birthday, brother, aren't you coming?"
Horace remained silent, obviously agreeing. He attended his brother's birthday party every year, and this year was no exception.
"Your Majesty, Marshal Hans is here..." said a soldier after saluting respectfully.
As soon as the words fell, Hozia's eyes, which had just been sparkling, were instantly filled with a look of disgust.
"Oh, your dog is here," Hosea said in an unpleasant tone, but he did not avoid the soldiers next to him at all, "I'm leaving first."
When Horace heard what Hozia said, he raised his eyebrows slightly and reprimanded Hozia in a stern tone, "I know why you hate him. It was me who ordered the arrest of the protesting students. You must remember that he is loyal to me. Everything he did was because I allowed it."
Obviously this was not a pleasant topic. Hozia stared at Horace for a long time, restrained his impulse, and took back all the questions that came to his lips, "I'm going home."
After saying this, Hosea turned and left the palace.
"Your Highness, are you going home now?"
Hosea waved his hand, "To the club."
After getting in the car, he took a deep look at the huge cage of Hoyt Palace.
Last week, Hans ordered the arrest of the protesting students. He was present at the time and had an argument with Hans. He knew that Hans had always firmly supported his brother's imperial rule, but this man was completely loyal to his brother, not the country.
In his early years, when his brother had just inherited the throne, the military controlled all domestic affairs. Every coup in the military was a test of life and death for him and his brother. At that time, it was no exaggeration to describe his and Horace's survival as "precarious". He often had nightmares, dreaming that Horace was in trouble.
He hated imperial power. His parents died in a car accident. His eldest brother was poisoned in his early years and had problems with his body functions. Although he became emperor, he could only live for a year at most. All of this was because of imperial power.
At that time, Horace did not want to inherit the throne, but a group of ministers in the country did not want the country to reform. Once the reform was carried out, it would have a great impact on them. This group of people arrested him and directly used him to threaten Horace. In the end, Horace had to break up with the person he loved and return home.
Horace found out she was pregnant after returning to her country. After giving birth to Ji Rong, she could only rely on her eldest brother who was still alive at the time to send the child to Ji Chong, thus cutting off all contact with the other party.
After his eldest brother died, Horace succeeded to the throne and was controlled by others. Several powerful ministers were playing games with each other, and Horace was the chess piece in the middle. Those ministers ordered his brother around, and his brother could only agree to every request of these people, keep giving orders, and act as a puppet emperor.
He was very scared every day, afraid that his brother would be bullied, and also afraid that what he would see that day would not be his brother, but a corpse.
It was at that time that he came into contact with a group of companions and learned about the separation of powers and constitutional monarchy. It was like a fire was ignited in his heart, burning his blood and making him boil. From that time on, he had a goal.
Later, as the political struggles intensified and the domestic situation became turbulent, there were seven coups in the three years since Horace ascended the throne. What surprised him was that in these coups, his brother became the true emperor.
After Horace came to power, he implemented various measures and reformed many industries and classes in the country. Horace's popularity once reached its peak and he became the "God" in the hearts of the Hoyt people.
He hadn't noticed it before, but at a party, he saw it from the way others looked at Horace, and then he realized that his brother's personal charm was simply terrifying!
Something happened in the country at that time, and everyone thought that Hoyt was going to be in civil strife again. However, Horace called people from both sides over, and after just a few words, the two sides shook hands and made peace.
As someone who witnessed the scene with his own eyes, the psychological impact was so great that when he thinks back on it now, he still feels shocked. He doesn't know whether to be happy or sad.
He even suspected that as long as Horatios gave any unreasonable orders, the people in the country would obey unconditionally, because he really found that... Horatios had unknowingly become a 'god' and their spiritual pillar.
…
Silver Palace.
Jiang Yuan lowered his head and smelled the pheromones left by Ji Rong on his body. Just because he was close to him, his body was stained with the scent of Ji Rong. The smell was a bit strong, but also particularly pleasant. The scent of cedar was quickly clear, which made him feel a little annoyed.
Jiang Yuan looked at Ji Rong, "Ji Rong, please control your pheromones."
Ji Rong was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and looked at Jiang Yuan, "I, I restrained myself quite well."
Gu Bai, who was sitting on the left side of Ji Rong, sniffed the air and said, "Yes, Ji Rong's smell is not strong, it's very light, I can't even smell it."
Jiang Yuan was stunned for a moment and touched his nose lightly with his hand. Was there something wrong with his nose?
"There is still a little bit," Cyril said seriously, "You can smell it. Don't you think Ji Rong's pheromones are damn strong? It's obviously a nice smell, but it gives people a strong sense of oppression."
"Hahaha, damn, I thought I was the only one who felt this way," Liu Shan clapped his hands fiercely upon hearing this, "The first time I smelled Ji Rong's pheromones, I almost fainted from the shock."
Then Liu Shan said, "But the smell is not strong today. Jiang Yuan, aren't you a beta? Can you smell it?"
Jiang Yuan: "Maybe I smelled it wrong."
Ji Rong lowered his eyes to look at Jiang Yuan, and suddenly took out a small can from his bag and sprayed it on himself. Then he stretched out a hand in front of Jiang Yuan and asked sincerely, "What now?"
Jiang Yuan: “No more.”
"Pheromone masking agent? Ji Rong, you still carry this?" Gu Bai has sharp eyes and saw the name written on the can at a glance.
Pheromone masking agent can cover up the smell of pheromones on the alpha. To put it simply, it is the combination between molecules to neutralize the smell of pheromones. Although this thing has been invented for a long time, there are almost no alphas who use it.
After all, the strength of alpha pheromones is a proof of strength for alphas. Who would bother to cover up their pheromones? Are you bored?
Ji Rong hummed, "Jiang Yuan can't get used to the smell of me, so I bought it for fear that he would feel uncomfortable."
When Jiang Yuan heard Ji Rong say this, he looked at Ji Rong suddenly. Ji Rong actually bought this thing for him, which really made it difficult for his good brother.
Being friends with him would really be an injustice to Ji Rong.
Jiang Yuan: "...You don't have to buy this, just be more restrained."
Ji Rong: "...It's okay, this is good."
Gu Bai at the side laughed and sniffed the smell of the masking agent in the air: "...I didn't expect that you, Ji Rong, actually like the strawberry flavor. The smell of this masking agent is so sweet. I feel like I'm standing in a pile of sugar now."
Ji Rong secretly glanced at Jiang Yuan, only to see Jiang Yuan stunned for two seconds, then turned his head to look at him, seemingly full of curiosity and confusion.
Ji Rong wants to cry but has no tears QAQ
When he was at the airport, he saw concealing agents in the duty-free shop at the airport. He didn't know why he bought them. But when he bought them, he was worried that Jiang Yuan would not like the concealing agents he bought, so he sent a text message to Jiang Yuan, asking him what flavor he liked, and pretended to buy water for him...
As a result, Jiang Yuan——
I mentioned strawberry casually.
The strawberry-flavored masking agent was definitely not suitable for alpha, so after hesitating for a long time, he still bought it. When he was checking out, he was stared at for a long time, which was extremely embarrassing!
Jiang Yuan said he liked strawberries. What could he do? Jiang Yuan didn’t like his taste in the first place. If Jiang Yuan also didn’t like the cover-up agent, he really couldn’t live anymore!
Strawberries are strawberries!
Buy it!
Buy it now!
He bought a box...
Jiang Yuan patted Ji Rong's shoulder and whispered, "You should buy a different flavor... This flavor doesn't match you."
This time Ji Rong was silent, and said with difficulty: "I like strawberry flavor."
Jiang Yuan: "...Okay then."
Ji Rong: "Yeah."
A group of people stared at Ji Rong. They really didn't expect Ji Rong to be such a girl! Aren't strawberries pink, tender and sweet?
Such a handsome alpha who is so handsome that it makes people weak in the knees likes girly pink! It really doesn't match his appearance at all.
