Chapter 417 Birds of a feather flock together.
Therefore, any title that touches on Had and Aaron experiences an explosive increase in comments.
Ninety percent of the content is entirely mockery and criticism of Hader.
[The little badger in the melon patch: ??? What did I just hear? Some male insects cheated on their partners first, and they still have the nerve to say that a legionary general is incapable of handling trivial matters?]
[User 843589: Mr. Harder, could you at least come up with a more plausible excuse? Is this a trivial matter?]
[The Empire's Only True God: This is truly eye-opening! To think they could shift blame like this! I was so blind before, actually supporting such scum!]
[The most handsome female tiger: Admiral Aaron, run! Escape the Thomas family's misery as soon as possible!]
...
Lotte watched as Aaron simply read the comments without reacting, and a growing anxiety crept in.
"Sir, the StarNet's public opinion is almost unanimously criticizing Had. Should we take this opportunity to further fuel the fire and eliminate him completely..."
At the very least, they need to salvage their reputation as generals.
They're going to retaliate against Hader for such a shameless attempt to shift blame!
Aaron waved his hand, stopping him from continuing.
"No need, things are already much better now." Aaron's lips curled into a rare, relaxed smile.
In the Empire, no matter what the reason for a male and female insects divorce, the blame is always placed on the female insect.
But now, Hader has taken the initiative to announce the dissolution of their marriage on StarNet and is frantically shifting the blame onto him, which has turned the tables on the situation.
Aaron tapped his fingertips lightly on the desk. "That guy Letekar is actually quite reliable; he really gets things done when there's something to ask."
"Huh?" Lott was stunned, his face full of confusion.
"General, isn't this just Hader shifting the blame in social circles? How... how did it become Major General Letecar's doing? Could it be that they forced Hader Thomas?"
Although the Thomas family went bankrupt, Hader is still a male insect, so how could he be threatened by Letekar?
Aaron's lips curled slightly, but he did not answer.
His gaze returned to the "Had" on the screen, but his eyes darkened.
He had spent a considerable amount of time with Had, and after understanding the character of this powerful ruler, in order to avoid being punished, he remembered every word and action of Had, even the slightest expression and gesture.
This was a survival instinct he was forced to develop during that oppressive marriage.
So when he saw Had's live stream video, he realized that this so-called Had was no longer his good leader.
The micro-expressions of this 'Hader' in the live stream were very similar, but the details were off.
But for the general public, and even for the other insects in the Thomas family, these minor details would go unnoticed.
That's enough.
Aaron looked up at Lott, "He doesn't need to threaten Hard, he just needs to render him powerless to resist."
Lotte was still a little confused, but Aaron said it was Letekar who did it, so it must have been him.
"Should we prepare some materials to prove our innocence?" Lott thought for a moment, still a little worried.
Unexpectedly, Aaron shook his head again. "Haven't you noticed that the Star Worms on the StarNet are focusing their firepower on Hader right now?"
The dissolution of a marriage is a matter between two insects, but he managed to remain invisible in this farce because of "Harder's" remarks.
Aaron continued, "They let Had attract all the hatred and attention. That way, even if Had 'suddenly disappears' later, probably not many insects will care; they might even applaud it. As for the Thomas family..."
He snorted coldly, "They are no longer the family that could influence public opinion among the nobility. Even if the Thomas family wanted to do something now, they would be powerless to do so."
Lotte suddenly realized what was going on, and his gaze changed as he looked at "Hard," who was still being verbally attacked on the screen.
“I see… Major General Letekar is indeed, uh, quite skilled.”
He couldn't find the right words to describe this efficient and ruthless method.
Seeing that Aaron didn't seem to care about the commotion on the StarNet, Lott composed himself and continued to report on the next matter.
"By the way, General, the Smith family just sent word that they wish to meet with you. Do you think... we should arrange something soon?"
Aaron paused slightly as he rubbed his temples, a hint of obvious annoyance flashing across his eyes.
He anticipated that the Smith family would take action after his divorce, but he didn't expect them to come so quickly.
"They really don't let the insects have a moment's peace."
Aaron's tone carried a clear hint of annoyance.
He paused for a moment before looking up at Lotte and asking an unexpected question, "Are there any eligible or unmarried male insects in the royal family?"
Lotte was taken aback by the question, and then quickly filtered through the information about the royal family in her mind.
"Uh, General, in this generation of the royal family, apart from the Second Prince Tan Chi, there are no other suitable choices."
The male ruler of the insect king is definitely not acceptable.
As for the other males, they're old enough to be the fathers of generals, so they definitely won't do it.
Aaron looked speechless upon hearing this.
He had just received a tremendous favor from Letekar, and now he was plotting against his lord?
This is incredibly unfair.
"Forget it." He immediately rejected the idea. "Check again to see if there are any other male insects in the noble circles that His Highness Tan Chi associates with, preferably the kind that can be married immediately."
He always believed that birds of a feather flock together.
Male insects that have a good relationship with Tan Chi are most likely to be good insects.
Lott finally understood Aaron's intention.
He wanted to find a male insect to marry as soon as possible to shut the Smith family up.
Lotte immediately looked down and operated the computer, his fingertips quickly swiping to filter the information.
A few minutes later, he raised his head and said hesitantly, "General, there is indeed a male insect that meets your criteria, but his situation is a bit... a bit complicated."
Aaron raised an eyebrow in confusion. "What's going on? Tell me."
Lott pursed his lips. "Uh, he's a cousin of the Reeves family, named Ake Reeves. He's an adult, fifteen years older than Lord Cano. But..."
Lotte paused, seemingly organizing his thoughts.
Aaron's doubt deepened, and he couldn't help but urge, "Does this male insect have some kind of health problem?"
"Sort of, but not quite." Lotte paused for a moment before continuing, "This male insect was damaged from the time it was an egg, and it has some intellectual deficiencies. We tried to treat it before, but after the treatment failed a few years ago, it fell into a coma and has not woken up since. You could say... it's in a half-dead state."
