Chapter 159
With Wen Shi disrupting things, the banquet ended in a whimper.
After all, Wen Shicai had won a victory and was an imperial hero who thwarted the rebels' conspiracy. Even though he was just a child from a poor noble family, it was difficult for the emperor and the nobles to take action against Wen Shi under the current circumstances.
However, although she failed to take Ye Wangxing down and judged Ye Wangxing as a criminal at the banquet, fortunately the divorce procedure has already been initiated. It only takes a few more months for Ye Wangxing to give up the position of queen.
Besides, Ye Wangxing's reputation is almost ruined now. After all, he concealed his love history, abandoned his child and accepted bribes. These charges are enough to bring Ye Wangxing to court.
Who knows, maybe Ou Che can take this opportunity to erase the record of his first marriage.
...Then this position will welcome its true owner.
Thinking of this, when Ou Che left, the expression on his face was not as tense as before.
Gu Jin's expression was still very calm, but when he turned around, a hint of gloom flashed across his eyes, and in this gloom, there was also some uneasiness, as if the scene in front of him did not meet his expectations.
But he soon comforted himself. After all, even if he failed to force the emperor to abdicate, only the people at the banquet knew about it.
At most, it is an internal problem of the royal family. When he takes the position of queen, who will pay attention to the former queen?
Gu Jin thought about it and a gentle expression appeared on his face.
However, Gu Jin, who had not returned to the capital planet for a long time, obviously had no idea how crazy the imperial tabloids were at the moment.
So...
"Shocking! A bloody love triangle took place at the Imperial Dinner, and the dumb queen was publicly executed - the gilded toilet. Ou Che was exposed to have relied on gigolos to rise to power, and the 'white vixen' Gu Bojue's military achievements were all due to his subordinates!"
Gu Jin's pupils trembled as he looked at the news headlines from tabloid self-media on the hot search.
"——How dare they!!"
But it turns out that the Empire tabloids not only dared, but were also very brave.
In this interstellar age where one cannot be punished for one's words, the imperial tabloids used their utmost imagination to describe the circumstances of yesterday's banquet in a way that was full of twists and turns and unpredictable, which was very eye-catching.
——I just don’t know which sentence is true and which is false.
But the public obviously enjoyed the show and didn't care at all how busy the royal offices in the palace were.
In a seemingly ordinary community on the capital planet, the rebels whose conspiracy was said to have been thwarted were laughing like animals while reading the Imperial tabloids in the base.
The rebel leader was so frightened when she came in that she almost thought she had entered a breeding farm.
"What happened?"
The leader put down the bag she was carrying - she had just returned from tutoring and asked with a puzzled look on her face.
And a rebel with a goose-like laugh said:
"Chief, please take a look at this. My God, I never knew that the reporters from the capital planet had such good writing skills. They always spare no effort in mocking the royal family. I have to apply to the headquarters later. I wonder if we can recruit them."
A report appeared on the intelligent computer in his hand, and the rebel handed the holographic screen to the leader.
The leader took the holographic screen and found that it was a report on the banquet held on the capital planet last night.
——How did these tabloid reporters get into the palace where not even a mosquito can fit in?
The leader thought with his mouth twitching, but his eyes were still on the report.
"...When His Majesty Ou Che walked into the banquet hall holding Earl Gu's hand, the whole galaxy heard the sound of heartbreak - of course, it was not our dumb queen's, after all, her genes had deprived her of even the right to scream. The heartbreak belonged to all the nobles present who coveted the position of queen."
"His Majesty, who relies on his ancestral spirit to maintain his dignity, is looking at his legal spouse with eyes like he is looking at expired canned food, but turns around and gives his old lover a spring-like smile - it seems that our Majesty has completely forgotten that his legal spouse was chosen by his dear mother herself."
"Our dear Majesty will probably be spanked by the Queen Mother when he returns home."
These reports alone are damaging enough, and they simply trample on the reputation of the royal family.
However, more damage is yet to come.
"...I don't know what Earl Gu's subordinates would think when they saw that their military exploits had become Earl Gu's stepping stone to the Queen - after all, the most famous of his subordinates was Lieutenant Colonel Wen Shi, who thwarted the rebels' conspiracy. Compared with our current General Gu, this is far from worth mentioning."
"But who cares about them? After all, they are just a bunch of children of ordinary commoners and fallen nobles. They should be grateful to have the support of the future queen."
If the previous mocking of the emperor could be considered the tabloid's own style, now this statement is simply an attack directed at Gu Jin.
The words were so sharp that the leader's eyes widened, wondering if this was really something that people like them on the capital planet could say?
But these tabloid reporters know the bottom line better than the leader, so...
They chose to treat everyone equally.
"... Now let's focus on the climax of the banquet, when Count Andre exposed the Queen for falsifying her age! My God, this accusation is like accusing a rose of not having thorns - who doesn't know that our poor Queen Ye was tied to the wedding car by the Queen Mother?"
"But for him, being stuffed into a lace skirt is better than wasting his life in an aristocratic family that just needs someone to marry into - after all, a poor vase that wouldn't make a sound when it was broken, at least in this position, can be adorned with gold foil."
In this report where even the dumb ones were kicked, others were simply unable to escape.
Count Andre, who spoke for the emperor, was ridiculed as a guy who would gladly agree to push the emperor's butt on the bed if asked by the emperor.
The other nobles in society were ridiculed one by one as toads seeing a white swan.
The leader was actually happy to hear this. After all, the emergence of such reports meant that the royal family's control over the entire empire was weakening.
It seems that they deliberately showed weakness and suffered a defeat, which almost caused the empire's defense line to disappear.
The leader thought.
However, when she slid down again, a familiar name appeared in front of her.
Just then, the door of the house was pushed open.
After the man closed the door, he revealed his crew cut, a fierce face and his signature silver hair.
However, before the man could say anything, the leader menacingly thrust the holographic screen in his hand in front of the man's face.
"——Wen! Shi! I asked you to find out the military secrets of the empire! I didn't ask you to flirt with someone else's queen!"
"Besides, what can attract you about that queen?"
Then the leader saw Wen Shi and thought seriously and said:
"…He's good-looking."
Seeing the serious leader: ...
“Bang!”
Just when the leader was speechless, the sudden crisp sound of glass shattering made everyone present turn their eyes over there.
The man standing over there still had dark circles under his eyes and looked very tired, but now he was staring at Wen Shi in amazement.
There was only one thought in my mind:
"——If an adopted son pursues his adoptive father without knowing it, can this pass ethical scrutiny?"
Yes, adoptive father.
The mysterious financial backer who provided their organization with high alimony and solved their urgent needs countless times was actually the adoptive father of the three Wen brothers.
She is also the current empress of the empire - Ye Wangxing.
In fact, what happened back then was very simple. In order to obtain aristocratic household registration, the undocumented boy on Black Star married a down-and-out noble who drifted to Black Star, and took on the responsibility of taking care of the three brothers.
But the good times did not last long. The father of the three brothers died, and they only had one spot to return to the capital star.
So the black boy chose to go to the capital star by himself, leaving the three brothers directly in the orphanage on Black Star, and even only left some meager support.
Although the illegal immigrant wrote on the ground that he would definitely give the money before leaving, Teacher Li did not believe it.
After all, there are too many Black Star people who have walked out like this, but without exception, they all regard Black Star as their shame.
They will try their best to cover up the fact that they came from the Black Star, and they would like to kill all the people who knew them on the Black Star in the past.
The fact that this illegal immigrant disappeared without saying goodbye for two years seemed to prove this point.
but……
When the communication number lit up after a long absence, Teacher Li's first reaction was that the illegal kid had encountered an accident.
Then he was faced with a pitiful face - a face he had just seen at the royal wedding.
If the boy hadn't spoken in the same tone as before, Teacher Li almost thought that the communication number had fallen into the hands of the royal family.
But it was obvious that he was the illegal kid. Teacher Li then realized that the reason he had not been able to be contacted in the past two years was that he had been under surveillance by that noble family and he did not have much money.
Now that he had experienced what everyone knows and had enough money, he immediately contacted Teacher Li.
Then Teacher Li was forced to accept a large sum of child support - a large sum of child support that could allow each of the three brothers of the Wen family to eat with a golden bowl.
Teacher Li refused, but it was obvious that he didn't understand the tyranny of the rich.
He could only be forced to accept it. Of course, he also reported the matter to the organization. He did not disclose the current identity of the illegal boy - after all, this identity was really too sensitive.
However, the leader had no aversion to deducting money from the nobles, but still asked Teacher Li to ask the three brothers for their opinions.
'After all, that was the money their adoptive father gave them, albeit two years late.'
Teacher Li also sighed. Most of the people in the rebel army came from miserable family backgrounds. This was the first time they had encountered such a complicated situation.
This also led to Teacher Li's expression being cautious when he asked the three brothers of the Wen family who had already joined the organization and were training at that time.
The three brothers were silent for a long time at that time, and finally the eldest brother of the Wen family said that he would not accept the free money if he wanted.
As soon as Teacher Li heard it, he knew that the child must still be resentful, but there was nothing he could do about it.
After all, he didn't know how the three of them got along. He only knew that on the day that boy left, the youngest one fainted from crying, and even the eldest son of the Wen family had tears in his eyes.
Every family has its own problems, so the illegal kid can only let him solve it himself.
This alimony has also helped the organization solve its urgent needs at countless critical moments.
However, Teacher Li still found opportunities to chat with Ye Wangxing, hoping to understand his movements.
After all, it would be a heartbreaking thing to let such a big financial sponsor go or let him go astray.
but……
What Teacher Li didn't expect was that nothing happened to Ye Wangxing.
——Something happened to the three brothers of the Wen family!
Teacher Li couldn't imagine whether Wen Shi would demolish the palace or their base after knowing the truth.
He even wanted to ask Ye Wangxing why he didn't want to look at the photos of the three Wen brothers back then, otherwise he wouldn't have failed to recognize his adopted son even when he was right in front of him.
Just as Teacher Li was thinking about it, he heard his communication number ringing.
The ringtone that rang was the arrival of the child support that he had specially noted for Ye Wangxing.
Teacher Li: “…”
He looked up at Wen Shi who was standing beside him curiously, then turned back to look at the leader who seemed to understand something from his reaction and had a shocked expression on his face.
He hesitated.
——He turned around and walked back to his room firmly.
"I'm just a kindergarten teacher and the accountant is almost dying from overwork. Let them solve this family drama by themselves."
Between being a family mediator and being a financial officer, Teacher Li decisively chose to be a financial officer who might die suddenly but would not be in danger of his life.
"I hope Ye Wangxing and Wen Shi can accept the reality when they find out the truth - otherwise Wen Shi's combat base will be lost!"
Teacher Li thought and prayed while making the report.
What he didn't know was that Wen Shi, who in his eyes didn't know the truth, was now talking to his so-called adoptive father in his mind.
Stick it.
[Yijiu, are you getting a little too close to me? ]
Ye Wangxing said this somewhat awkwardly—after all, he was very close to Yijiu now, just like when he hadn’t discovered his feelings.
Yijiu put one hand on his waist. Although he didn't touch him, as long as Ye Wangxing moved a little more, he would bump into Yijiu.
'Although it is convenient to read the information this way, do we really need to be so close together?'
Ye Wangxing began to reflect on whether he had unconsciously taken advantage of Yijiu many times before.
But Yijiu said naturally:
[No, host, isn't this our previous state? ]
As he said this, he looked at Ye Wangxing doubtfully, his golden eyes full of trust.
The words that were about to come out of Ye Wangxing's mouth were blocked and he couldn't say anything.
However, Yijiu seemed to have noticed Ye Wangxing's hesitation. Although there was still trust in his golden eyes, grievance surfaced.
[Host, do you think I'm annoying? ]
Although Yijiu still had no expression on his face and even his voice was calm, Ye Wangxing's sense of guilt instantly doubled.
As a human, he had evil intentions towards an artificial intelligence, but as a result, the artificial intelligence was forced to bear the consequences of his ambivalent behavior. He is simply committing a sin!
——Look at Yijiu now. He has been trained to be a pitiful big dog!
Ye Wangxing now spit on his love-minded brain, and then after judging both emotionally and rationally that the current situation would not have any impact on his return home, he finally let go of his tense body and leaned silently in Yijiu's arms.
He cursed himself for being useless, but turned around and looked obediently at the mission report and the script setting in front of him.
This time the world is an interstellar palace fighting and rebirth literature, and the main plot of the entire literature revolves around Gu Jin's tragic death in the previous life and his decision to take back everything he had after his rebirth.
——Although everything he wants is to become the Empress Dowager.
But at least she did make it to the border, relied on her memories of her previous life to destroy the rebels' actions, and relied on her military exploits to secure her position as queen.
From this point we can see that this literature is more like court literature than palace fighting literature.
Because the protagonist, the bottom, was determined from the beginning to become the empress dowager, and even when the protagonist, the top, Ou Che, cheated on him, he only showed concern on the surface.
Of course, the protagonist did not cheat on his wife intentionally, but he was forced to be drugged by the Queen Mother every time and then have sex with other people.
In his previous life, Gu Jin initially trusted Ou Che but later became disillusioned with him. After his rebirth, Gu Jin naturally would not waste time on this matter, but was busy seizing power and winning over the nobles.
It was under such circumstances that the original body became Gu Jin's stepping stone.
The original body and Gu Jin had a natural conflict of interest, and Ou Che also stood on Gu Jin's side. Even though the original body became pregnant with Ou Che's child with the help of the Queen Mother, she still lost miserably in the end.
Even the fact that he accepted a large amount of bribes to change his age was uncovered. This minor crime, which was not a big deal for a noble, became a crime punishable by death.
Even though the original body died, it helped Gu Jin make an example of someone and established his authority among the nobles.
Afterwards, Gu Jin began to love Ou Che on the surface, but secretly tried to seize power. He used the memories of his previous life to defeat the rebels and then began to win over the nobles, which directly led to the formation of the aristocratic family.
This is also why the law invited them here.
Long-standing families in human civilization will hinder the development of civilization to some extent.
This is something the law that wants to see itself grow stronger does not want to see.
After receiving the task, Ye Wangxing complained about why he was mute again this time, but he still worked very efficiently.
I quickly got into the mood and started outlining the script.
The original body was a Black Star. In order to obtain a noble household registration, she married a down-and-out old noble and had to help raise his children.
But because the old noble died and he had no source of income, he simply abandoned the child to an orphanage, chose to go to the capital planet himself, and has never been heard from since.
——In fact, when Ye Wangxing originally designed this place, he intended to inherit the setting of the original body who had never paid a penny of child support.
But since Yijiu said that if he died after paying the alimony, the plot would be even more dramatic and would attract more attention, Ye Wangxing thought about it and finally agreed.
After all, this kind of plot where you kill your enemy only to find out that he is your benefactor is something that the public will enjoy watching no matter where it is.
However, when Ye Wangxing was writing the plot, he obviously did not see Yijiu's cold eyes as he looked at the text.
Of course, Yijiu's eyes were not in a good mood when he saw the text, but when his host looked at him, he subconsciously retracted his gaze and reported the current situation to his host in a serious manner.
[Host, the rebels are still following the original plot, but there are some minor deviations. After we arrived in this world, they followed the advice of the three Wen brothers and immediately came to the capital planet, just passing by the team sent by Gu Jin to eliminate them.]
Yijiu reported the situation, while Ye Wangxing nodded and thought about the current situation.
[The rebels have all their manpower, just enough to fight against Gu Jin. After all, they are the villains in the original novel, and we can't take the same court route as Gu Jin, otherwise, with the strengthening of the fate line, we will definitely not be able to beat Gu Jin in this aspect. ]
Yijiu also nodded, scanned the situation of the rebels again, and prepared to tailor a plan.
——This is his strong point.
Of course, he did not forget to get closer and closer to his host.
[I will keep my identity here to myself for now. Yijiu, you should follow the previous script. If I fake my death later, it will attract more attention.]
Ye Wangxing recalled the script he had designed and felt that there were no major problems at the moment, so he nodded and stretched. Halfway through his stretch, when he put his hand down, it was caught by Yijiu's other hand.
Ye Wangxing felt that something seemed wrong, but nothing was wrong. After all, Yijiu was still talking to him seriously about the mission.
It was not until Ye Wangxing had his head filled with analysis of the resistance army and came out of the system that he came back to his senses from Yijiu's face.
Ye Wangxing returned to reality. With a serious expression, he listened to the maid calling him to go to see the Empress Dowager, while thinking about one thing:
——Just now, was Yijiu seducing him?
The Queen Mother looked at the weak-looking Queen in front of her with a hint of disdain on her face.
She still didn't like Ye Wangxing. If he wasn't the most suitable person for this plan, she would never let someone with the appearance she hated the most enter the palace or even become the queen.
However, the Queen Mother did not expect that Ou Che was completely different from his father. His father was obsessed with this kind of delicate appearance.
The Queen Mother thought with a hint of sarcasm, but when she turned to look at Ye Wangxing, her eyes were filled with a hint of disgust.
"Are you feeling better now? What do you think of what happened before?"
The Queen Mother's disdain also made the maid, who was seeing the Queen for the first time, look a little sympathetic.
"The queen is really pitiful. She didn't volunteer to get on the wedding car, nor did she volunteer to become the queen, but it became a battleground between mother and son."
The maid thought about it, and her eyes became more sympathetic as she watched the pitiful queen open her smart brain and write down her thoughts only after getting the empress dowager's permission.
But he didn't notice that the Queen Mother took a deep breath silently, as if she was preparing herself mentally.
"...Does it even require the Queen Mother's permission to use the intelligent computer to write?"
The sympathy in the maid's eyes was about to overflow.
Then she saw the Queen write on the holographic screen:
{Ou Che is an idiot!}
maid:"……????"
The Empress Dowager did not notice the confused maid. She looked at Ye Wangxing, who was weak but confident in front of her, and once again felt fortunate that she had revoked his permission to use the intelligent computer to speak in public places such as banquets.
——Otherwise, God knows what this kid will say!
