Chapter 163
The leader really couldn't stand it anymore. God knows how suffocated she felt when she woke up from a sleep and found that her three capable men appeared in the tabloids at the same time.
She originally thought it was a fabrication by the tabloids, but...
The leader flipped through the tabloid with a sullen face. The photo on the newspaper was so clear that even the queen's rosy eyes were visible.
Not to mention the scene where both of them blushed when Wen Jiu was adjusting his cufflinks. The leader could even see the extent of the blushes on their faces.
I have to say that the tabloid reporter's filming was quite professional. The scene was so beautiful that it looked like a forbidden love in a palace movie. Even the leader couldn't help but be attracted to them.
——If the next photo wasn’t of Ye Wangxing almost burying himself in Wen Yi’s arms.
If the previous photo was pure love, then this one is pure sexual tension.
The tight black shirt, the absolutely authoritative body shape difference, and the face that was squeezed to the point of being deformed...
Just looking at it makes people say "wow".
Not only that, the reporter's article was also extremely explosive, making people wonder if he had any side job.
"...While our Golden Toilet Majesty was busy having a secret meeting with General Gu Jin, his pitifully mute Queen was staging a drama even more explosive than 'Secrets of the Starry Sky'! According to the royal maid, Her Majesty has won the hearts of two new nobles in just three days. The empire's most sought-after new noble is actually starting a silent war for our trophy Queen."
"At the charity event, our poor Queen, who's never participated in such activities before, cowered like a quail the entire time, while the twenty-year-old captain of the guard turned 'close protection' into a 'relationship tutorial'! His fingertips trembled as he adjusted his cuffs, blood dripped from his ears, and he stole glances at the Queen more often than the reporters snapped their cameras!"
"Even more amazingly, his finger lingered on Her Majesty's sleeve for a full forty-six seconds (yes, we timed it!) - Your Majesty, you weren't this attentive when you were pursuing your lover Gu Jin, were you?"
"But His Majesty has been cuckolded on more than one occasion. If the Captain of the Guards can be described as a child's admiration for the Queen Mother, then Viscount Cecil, the royal spokesman who controls all interstellar logistics, has no excuse at all!"
"Look at this photo! The Viscount 'accidentally' fell towards the Queen, his pecs beneath his black shirt squeezing her face like a sticky rice cake! His snow leopard spirit completely lost its beastly dignity, hugging the Queen's waist and rubbing its head frantically, meowing shamefully! The Viscount couldn't even pull away."
"But seriously, Your Excellency, those male models in the nightclub don't need this trick anymore—who can't control their spirit these days?"
After this sharp-tongued reporter finished describing the methods of the first two, the previous news could not escape his mouth either.
"...I wonder if our dear Colonel Wen Shi, after seeing what these two did, would regret not stepping forward and expressing his affection to Her Majesty the Queen."
"I would like to say here a word of comfort, our dear Colonel, at least you are very young - especially compared to our dear Majesty."
"What? Your Majesty is actually the same age as Her Majesty the Queen? Sorry, my mind might still be stuck on His Majesty from two years ago. That disastrous look really made me think His Majesty was accompanied by the eldest prince—even though he doesn't have any children, either two years ago or now."
"Finally, let's turn our attention to Your Majesty, whose crown has been replaced with an emerald. Sitting on a throne encrusted with diamonds, instead of gold, must be particularly uncomfortable. But don't worry, Your Majesty. At least you still have an empty chamber and endless taunts. Oh, no, the chamber isn't empty. After all, you still have Earl Gu, right?"
"After all, there's a saying in interstellar space: When the whole galaxy is having a party in your bed, at least you save on heating bills, right?"
"—I hope that our emperor will learn to be content with what he has. Just like he told us before, at least we still have a job, and His Majesty is still His Majesty, right?"
The reporter's words were extremely sharp and sarcastic, and the comments section of the tabloid was similar to the reporter, looking forward to gossip while mocking His Majesty.
The leader couldn't help but sigh at the sarcastic words she said, especially the ones mocking Ou Che, which really made her feel comfortable both physically and mentally.
...It would be better if the three people who make up half of the characters in this report were not his right-hand men.
This made the chief retract his desire to "Wow" and instead let out a groundhog scream of "Ah!"
He didn't even care much about the third son of the Wen family mentioned last. After all, the third son of the Wen family was just talking at the beginning. He had been training honestly in the military during this period, and even passed on messages to them very obediently. He was obviously the most naughty one when he was a child, but now he is less worrying than his two brothers.
——After all, unlike Wen Shi, Wen Yi and Wen Jiu gave her the feeling that they were serious!
These two brats clearly know the truth!
The leader felt dizzy when he thought of the ambiguous photos he had seen before, as if he was about to faint from being angered by the students.
The leader finally came to his senses and cursed at the two indifferent guys on the spot.
"You two! You know the truth, but you're still like this! Don't you even want a future? We didn't keep the secret of what happened back then very well. If the higher-ups found out at an inopportune time, you'd be finished, you know that! Don't you know what the Empire's attitude towards the rebels is now?"
The chief said this with great sorrow.
But Wen Jiu in front of him smiled and said, "But it is precisely because of this that we can pursue Her Majesty the Queen openly without being suspected, right?"
"After all, how could the rebels be so foolish as to appear before the public in broad daylight, rise to the position of captain of the guard, and even be implicated in a scandal involving the royal family?"
Wen Jiu said with a smile.
The leader was also confused by him for a moment.
It’s not that the leader is easy to deceive, but what he said is indeed very feasible, which makes the leader a little tempted.
——After all, with the current level of corruption in the empire, if they dare to reveal any information about their overlap with the rebels, the next day countless second-generation people who want to gild themselves will drag them away for sentencing.
After all, all those who were born in Black Star, even those who already had a normal life, were dragged into the rebel army by those second-generation people and those who were crazy about promotion.
Ironically, such actions have led to an increasing number of rebels.
Countless people who were labeled as rebels, and their relatives and friends, became real rebels.
After all, even if there is a mastermind in charge of the prison, the masters who handle the funds only care about whether their own pockets are full, and do not care whether all the facilities in the prison are complete.
As for the law...
When the first corruption case appeared in the court, it meant that countless cockroaches had appeared in the system. The main brain issued countless alarms, but no one executed them, no one managed them. Even the main brain was nothing but waste when it had no authority to execute orders.
There are countless ways for powerful people to avoid the Mastermind.
Authority, nobility, immunity.
Behind these rights are the blood and tears of ordinary people.
However, it is precisely because of these powers that the rebels are in their current situation.
The rebels are flourishing in various galaxies, and many people under the leader of the capital star have submitted their identity information, wanting to join.
But with so many people around, it's difficult for them to hide themselves, and they have to be extremely careful.
...But if the method provided by Wen Jiu was really useful, they wouldn't have to work so hard.
The leader thought about it, but then realized something was wrong. He quickly looked up at Wen Jiu and said angrily, "You little bastard, don't try to change the subject! I'm asking you now, do you know what you're doing?!"
"And you, Wen Yi, I originally thought you were the calmest of the three brothers, but it turns out you're the wildest! Not only did you squeeze my face until it was deformed, you even used your spirit body. I didn't know your spirit body could be like a cat, meowing and clinging to me!"
The leader was really angry. They both knew the truth, but they were still like this. Were they really planning to pursue their adoptive father?
Of course, the leader suddenly became discouraged when he thought of this. Those who could join the organization were not of a good background. A truly happy family would not even think of joining the organization unless it was broken apart.
Now that the brothers were like this, what right did he have to refute them? What right did he have to ask them to give up?
"...Forget it, I won't get involved in your affairs, young people."
The leader said with a sigh, wondering if he should go get a psychology degree.
"If you really want to pursue him, go ahead. I neither oppose nor support you. You know what you are doing, and you also know that his identity is yours—"
However, the leader was interrupted by Wen Yi before he could finish his words.
"Chief, we are not pursuing him - we are just taking advantage of his identity."
Wen Yi said calmly, no emotion could be seen in his golden eyes, but his gaze became dark and his expression took on a hint of coldness.
The leader suddenly felt that the two of them were a little strange. If Wen Yi was not pursuing someone, why was his mental and physical strength rubbing against someone like a cat?
Especially when he mentioned Ye Wangxing and thought he was pursuing them, both Wen Jiu and Wen Yi clearly clenched their teeth, but there was no sign of disgust.
The leader couldn't understand what was going on, so he frowned and asked, "Then why did you two get yourselves into tabloid scandals? Don't tell me you were photographed accidentally. With your abilities, if you didn't want to be photographed, those reporters wouldn't even be able to capture a single hair of yours."
"Chief, this is normal, isn't it? Hiding your identity and appearing in the tabloids is the only way to prove your innocence."
Wen Jiu spoke with a smile at this time, with a smile on his gentle face, looking very natural, as if the person who had just clenched his teeth was not him.
But the leader always felt that something was wrong, so after the two of them left, she slammed the table and followed them out, tiptoeing and eavesdropping.
With the leader's skills, he naturally wouldn't let the people inside the door hear him. However, in order not to be discovered, the leader also clung to the door with great difficulty, carefully holding his breath, fearing that if his breathing was a little louder, he would be discovered by the two people inside the door.
Fortunately, today they seemed to be affected by what had just been said and did not notice the arrival of the leader at all.
Then the leader heard Wen Jiu's voice coming from inside the door.
"Why does the leader think we're pursuing him? Isn't this obviously a bad joke?"
Wen Jiu said with a grin, his voice filled with an undisguised nastiness.
"Maybe it's because you acted so convincingly, so convincingly that even the leader misjudged you."
Wen Yi spoke calmly, but a little too calmly, as if he was hiding something.
"Oh? Is that so? But brother, you acted more convincingly than I did—if it wasn't you who came up with this plan, I would have really thought you were attracted to him."
Wen Jiu said with a smile again.
Wen Yi was silent for a moment, and then the voice sounded again.
"He's not worthy yet. I haven't forgotten what happened."
"That's good." Wen Jiu didn't say whether he believed it or not, but changed his tone after he finished speaking.
——It was an extremely bad, even sticky tone.
"But... I really can't wait to see the expression on my dear's face when he finds out who we are after abandoning us and running away."
Wen Jiu said.
“That’s definitely a beautiful scene worth recording.”
Wen Yi was silent again, his voice still calm, but what he said was not at all calm.
"I'll remember to put a camera."
leader:……
Damn it! After rescuing these kids from the orphanage, their psychological trauma hasn't been healed at all!
When the leader returned to the office, he was still in a daze.
She really didn't expect Wen Yi and Wen Jiu to do such a thing. This is simply a violation of public order and good morals, as well as organizational discipline!
But the root of this matter still came from the accident that year, and the leader really didn't know how to solve it for a while.
A year after Ye Wangxing left, a fire broke out in the orphanage. When the leader arrived, he only had time to save the three Wen brothers and the director. The rest of them, whether teachers or children, were all buried in the sea of fire.
The reason was that a child from an orphanage said online that he wanted to join the rebel army because his life was too hard.
——And then the orphanage was gone.
Even if the leader gave the four of them a new identity in time and had others change their names and replace them so that they were no longer in danger, the people were gone once they were gone.
There is no way to come back from the dead.
I guess the roots were planted at that time.
The leader sighed deeply when she thought of this. She had no idea how to solve this problem, and they had no intention of taking any more extreme actions at the moment.
It would be better to keep an eye on them to prevent them from really attacking Ye Wangxing.
The leader thought helplessly, and finally picked up the documents handed to him by his subordinates, and then he noticed some changes in the palace.
It wasn't the emperor who discovered anything, but Gu Jin.
——Has he started investigating Ye Wangxing’s three adopted sons?
The leader frowned immediately, but did not panic. After all, she was the one who released those three adopted sons to set a trap for the government on Black Star.
After Teacher Li and the three brothers of the Wen family were rescued, the local government did not look for them. In fact, no one cared about them at all. It was not until a year later that someone from the higher-ups looked for these four people. The leader then realized that the situation of Teacher Li and the three brothers of the Wen family was unusual, so he immediately found someone to impersonate them.
She had even done some careful testing, so that if anything went wrong she could immediately evacuate from Black Star, but...
Those officials didn't even notice it, or they were just doing their job to fulfill the tasks assigned by their superiors.
If they had checked carefully back then, this would not have happened.
The leader also deliberately left this loophole, and these four people became spies they planted in the government. Even if the higher-ups wanted to kill them to silence them, the people outside who would support them could ensure that they could go to the capital planet to appeal for justice, which would completely remove another pillar from the empire's rule.
But what the leader didn't expect was that they would be used so early.
And it was all because of jealousy...
The leader looked at the information with some sarcasm, but when he thought about how they didn't seem to be much better than the other party, the smile on his face disappeared and he sighed deeply.
But now is not the time to think about this. The most important thing now is to control the situation as much as possible.
So the leader immediately called all members to an online meeting and began to discuss the reasons.
"...This mission is not easy, especially since it involves the Imperial Family. The Queen will be in danger this time, and the people around her may be implicated. Everyone should be careful when carrying out the mission."
As the leader finished speaking, he heard someone say.
"Let's go."
"Who? You guys are the ones going. Are you suitable for it—"
The leader spoke impatiently, but the next second he saw the three people who were talking.
Wen Yi, Wen Jiu, Wen Shi.
Very good, the three brothers are together.
but……
The leader's gaze slowly shifted to Wen Yi and Wen Jiu.
——Forget about Wen Shi, didn’t you two brothers say you wanted to take revenge on Ye Wangxing?
It would be fine if you didn't set off the firecrackers, but why do you look so gloomy?
Half a month later.
Palace banquet.
——Don’t ask why there are so many banquets in the palace. The answer is that they have nothing to do and have to hold banquets.
Inside the banquet hall, crystal chandeliers shone brightly, and nobles dressed in gorgeous attire gathered in groups of three or four, whispering to each other. Suddenly, the door to the hall was pushed open by a servant, and everyone's attention was instantly drawn to the scene.
Ou Che wore a deep purple gown adorned with gemstones. The intricate gold embroidery on the hem was almost blinding under the light. A ruby the size of a pigeon egg was pinned to her collar, and even her cuffs were studded with tiny diamonds. She looked as gorgeous as a moving Christmas tree.
The lions at his feet were all wearing gold collars as wide as a palm, which made them look very luxurious.
The lion himself liked it very much and walked with his head held high and chest puffed out.
Gu Jin almost dropped the wine glass in his hand. He quickly stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, what are you doing...?"
Ou Che snorted coldly, his eyes sweeping over the nobles whispering among them. "Didn't those tabloids say I was 'too old and ugly to be worthy of the Queen'? I'll show them that the average lifespan in the galaxy is 200 years. My prime has just begun!"
He even referred to himself as "I". It seemed that the tabloid report half a month ago really pissed off Ou Che.
This is indeed the case.
In the past half month, all the tabloids throughout the empire have been mocking Ou Che's aging and fading looks, and some people have even called on Earl Gu to find someone else.
This has caused Ou Che to become much more irritable in the past half month.
Gu Jin's mouth twitched, and he resisted the urge to hold his forehead: "But won't this be too... conspicuous?"
Ou Che adjusted his cuffs and said confidently, "It's better to be conspicuous, so that some people can see clearly who is the most dazzling person here."
The nobles around him exchanged glances, and some whispered, "Your Majesty, this rumor about cuckoldry has probably irritated you..."
Thinking of this, everyone's attention shifted to the three people on the side.
Viscount Cecil's silver hair was like frost, and his golden eyes were calm and deep. He was dressed in a neatly tailored black suit, and the family crest on his chest was low-key and noble.
Beside him, the captain of the guards had his long silver hair tied behind his head, and a humble smile on his jade-like face.
Finally, there was Colonel Wen Shi. He had silver hair and a crew cut, his brows etched with impatience, and his tight-fitting clothes were completely out of place at the banquet.
The scene of the three men gathered together made this corner of the banquet the most dazzling presence in the party.
——Only Your Majesty can compete with him.
In a physical sense.
However, none of the three of them cared about His Majesty's arrival. They just stood there, looking very polite, but...
Their spirit bodies seemed a little rude.
Viscount Cecil's snow leopard stood beside Her Majesty the Queen, rubbing its large head against Ye Wangxing's waist and purring. The captain of the guards' snow wolf, not to be outdone, leaned forward to sniff his fingertips, looking at Her Majesty with wet puppy eyes and letting out a soft whimper.
And when I heard...
His spiritual body, the polar bear, was more direct. Relying on its size advantage, it pushed aside the two spiritual bodies and occupied the position next to Ye Wangxing. It rubbed its head against Her Majesty the Queen's body indiscriminately, almost knocking Her Majesty the Queen down, forcing Her Majesty the Queen to hug the huge bear head.
It was common knowledge that spirits were extensions of their masters' will. Although this wasn't officially acknowledged, it was always accepted. Now, this situation...
Everyone's gaze shifted between the three slightly embarrassed faces and the top of His Majesty's head, and then they all showed an expression of understanding.
Ou Che's face immediately darkened. Although he disliked the queen very much, it was not a reason for them to offend him openly.
Ou Che was about to step forward with a dark face to deal with these scoundrels, but the one who was faster than him was Gu Jin who was standing beside him.
He stopped Ou Che.
The nobles present breathed a sigh of relief, as they no longer had to worry about saying things against their will - their spiritual bodies could easily reveal their true thoughts.
This is also one of the reasons why the official has never acknowledged that the spirit body is an extension of the master's will. We have to give the nobles some face.
but……
They were really curious about why Her Majesty the Queen could attract three upstarts, especially their spirits, who held Her Majesty the Queen down and sucked her like a kitten.
Is Her Majesty the Queen a reincarnated succubus? Or are people without spiritual bodies more attractive to those with spiritual bodies?
The nobles really couldn't figure it out, but five minutes later, they figured it out.
"...I have found Her Majesty the Queen's former stepson!"
Seeing the presence of this seemingly agitated official, all the nobles were somewhat stunned.
At this time, His Majesty was also a little shocked and asked who it was.
The official raised his head with great confidence and spoke clearly.
"—Your Majesty, it is Viscount Cecil, the Captain of the Guard, and Colonel Wen Shi!"
Nobles: ???
Ou Che: ???
Everyone present immediately looked at the three people standing there in a daze.
“——So it’s not a succubus, but a father’s love?
