Upon seeing the news online, the Empress's face turned completely green; she never imagined that her own daughter had tricked her.
In the year 5013 of the Star Calendar, the Empire split, with the new faction led by Bai Shan and the old faction led by the Soviet royal family occupying the vast northern and southern parts of the Empire respectively, with the asteroid belt of the original capital star serving as the dividing line.
On a habitable planet.
The Empress watched as the military and political departments were in complete disarray, each blaming the other for inaction, which led to Bai Shan taking away a large number of the Empire's elite forces.
Especially after the information was released online, everyone, whether they were quick-witted or had special abilities, wanted to take it a step further. In addition, most people had already drunk Keynes's potion, and given the uncertainty of the possibility of death, staying alive was more important.
Grandpa Lu and Marshal He occupied the westernmost position at the table, while the Empress was at the easternmost position, facing each other across the distance, with two groups of people arguing fiercely in the middle.
With more and more data being handed over, if she didn't process it soon, this empress would be left with nothing.
He slammed his hand on the table. These civil officials are still only thinking about their own interests. Asking her to make peace with Baishan is a pipe dream.
"Shut up, all of you get out."
"Both legion commanders, please stay."
...
What are your insights, gentlemen?
Grandpa Lu stretched and said, "I'm old, and my heart isn't working well anymore. I can't even get a hot meal while squatting. What brilliant ideas could I possibly have? Your Majesty, you should do it yourself."
He Zhang was oblivious to everything, but he wasn't as quick-witted as Lu Yuanshan because he did everything Bai Shan and Lao Lu did.
Now that Baishan has betrayed the country, he can't betray the country either; he's still counting on holding his great-grandson.
Naturally, I followed Lao Lu.
The Empress naturally understood what Lu Yuanshan meant, since Lu Yuanhong had discussed the same matter with her when they negotiated.
"Is it because she's back that you..."
"Who is she? Your Majesty, what are you talking about? Old Lu's hearing isn't very good either."
The Empress wanted to get angry, but she couldn't. She still had to rely on the military. In fact, she had misjudged the situation; the biggest threat to the military was actually Baishan.
Frustrated, she scratched her head. She was only human; what was wrong with miscalculating? The cunning old man wouldn't let her off the hook.
"Your Lu Yulan has been kidnapped by bandits. Where am I supposed to find her for you? If you don't mind, my cook is quite good."
Grandpa Lu opened his half-closed eyes and said, "Your Majesty, you know better than anyone whose child Lan'er is. You're afraid she'll block Princess Fiya's path, so you've been harassing those old people all these years."
"But Lan'er is kind-hearted. She doesn't care about the throne. Don't worry, as long as the Lu family exists, Princess Fiya will be the ruler of the empire."
"really?"
She did have this concern, fearing that the Lu family would use the emperor to command the princes. She had never met that child, but his reputation in the past few years was extremely bad, unlike her intelligent sister.
Now that Lu Yuanshan has given her assurance, she really has no way out.
"really."
“Alright, I will rewrite a decree to restore her status as a princess and clear her name.”
"But you must first give me a solution."
The two looked at each other, each cursing the other in their hearts.
Having received Lu Yuanshan's promise for three days, the Empress left satisfied.
He Zhang nudged Grandpa Lu.
"Old man, what are you hiding from me? Isn't that little girl the daughter of your comrade-in-arms?"
"Of course it is! Princess Suguo was on the battlefield back then, wasn't she?"
