To be honest, Wei Ming didn't know much about it either. After all, the royal family always had many secrets. Even though he married the Empress, they didn't actually do anything. How would he know?
"Perhaps it's to cover something up. Your Highness, instead of dwelling on those outdated documents, you should look forward."
Wei Ming tried to steer Su Guo down a different path, such as getting married and having children, or going to war.
Su Guo stood up and looked out through the open glass. "Looking forward? Although I can handle cabinet matters now, the military is completely controlled by the Lu and He families. And now we're in the midst of war. I'm afraid they won't agree to whatever I want to do."
Su Guo's tone was somewhat indifferent, but also somewhat regretful. Wei Ming imagined it and felt that his daughter had been bullied.
"What does Your Highness wish to do? I can help."
Su Guo looked up, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes, but it quickly dimmed again. "No need, Uncle Wei, you've already helped me a lot."
Wei Ming felt very pleased to be called "Uncle Wei". "How could that be? You are His Highness, the King of this Empire. It is only right that I obey your orders."
"Really?"
A calculating glint flashed in Su Guo's eyes; this was the moment she had been waiting for.
"Of course it's true."
"I'm wondering... will Uncle Wei help me?"
Building a spaceship? It's not impossible, really. The war between White Mountain and the Empire has reached a stalemate, and the Imperial Guard is free of trouble.
"Of course, but why would Your Highness need to build a spaceship?"
A longing gleamed in Su Guo's eyes. "I want to see the real world. I know that I was chosen as the heir now only because I had no other choice. One day, when Sophia grows up, I will be the one who is abandoned."
She turned to look at Wei Ming, a smile playing on her lips, "I hope that one day I can travel around in a spaceship."
Wei Ming felt a pang of heartache. "Don't worry, Your Highness, that day will never come. How could Sophia, that crybaby, compare to your intelligence?"
Su Guo smiled modestly, "Then I must thank Uncle Wei. The spaceship blueprints are with the butler, and he will come over to help you tomorrow. How about I take Uncle Wei and Wei Guang to travel around the entire star sea then?"
Wei Ming trembled with excitement. This was his daughter, and even after she passed away, she still remembered him. "Okay, I'll go back now and help you prepare your things."
After Wei Ming left, the uncle entered Su Guo's room from a short distance away and, as usual, helped Su Guo process the documents.
Su Guo opened a bottle of wine and said, "I've already won Wei Ming over. You'll be working with him tomorrow, but he might not give you a friendly look."
After all, the uncle used to be Su Guo's personal butler. Without looking up, the uncle continued to annotate with his red pen, "It's alright, His Highness's important matters are paramount."
"But is Your Highness really at ease entrusting such an important matter to Wei Ming? Your Highness doesn't need to be in such a hurry; you can proceed slowly."
Su Guo frowned. She had a strong premonition that if she didn't hurry, all her efforts might be in vain.
"It's okay, he only knows that he is building spaceships, he has no idea what spaceships are for."
"It's a pity that Su Chen destroyed all the royal family's old records, otherwise I could have found more information. Another world, a place where one can live forever. Butler, are you looking forward to it?"
The older man looked up at Su Guo with a look of doting affection, "Your Highness's expectations are my expectations."
