What happened just now finally left an impression on Gu Qi.
Just as Lao Yan said, nothing really happened today.
After taking turns with the people from the Second Army, Lao Yan took her to the cafeteria of the Second Army.
I happened to meet Ming Xiangnan and Ming Qinxu in the cafeteria. I don’t know how they got together.
"Gu...Zhang San, come here." Ming Xiangnan almost blurted out the truth, but fortunately Gu Qi stopped him with a look.
"Hello, Major General Ming." Gu Qi pulled Lao Yan over and sat down. Coincidentally, she sat next to Ming Xiangnan, so Lao Yan had to sit next to Ming Qinxu.
"How do you feel? Have you noticed anything unusual?" Ming Qinxu asked Lao Yan as soon as he saw them sit down.
Lao Yan waved his hands and said, "You already know everything. How can you find anything in that place?"
Ming Qinxu laughed out loud, "That's right, I used to sleep there all the time."
Having said that, he asked Gu Qi, "I don't know what Lu Yao was thinking. He chose you and then asked you to go somewhere else!"
Gu Qi's hand froze while he was picking up food. He raised his head and asked, "Did Major General Lu ask me to come here?"
"Yes, we didn't choose you originally, but Lu Yao insisted. Otherwise, you would be training with your classmates now."
Gu Qi bit his chopsticks unconsciously, looking thoughtful.
The cafeteria is a relatively free place in the military, and there aren't that many rules.
When people eat together in groups of three or four, it is inevitable that some small talk and gossip will begin.
Behind them, there was a table behind a flower pot that seemed to be occupied by members of the Second Legion. Several people were sitting together, chatting about some daily trivia, but suddenly one person brought up a topic that changed the subject.
"Have you heard about that?"
"You are talking about Major General Lu and Major General Yuan, right?"
"Is this true? Aren't they said to be good brothers?"
"No matter how good they are, they can't compare to brothers. Besides, they are equally powerful. You know, Major General Yuan is a member of the Yuan family!"
"That's right. Major General Lu has no power or influence. He can only figure out a solution on his own. He is indeed not in an advantageous position."
"But being a traitor is something that should not be spread. I don't think Major General Lu is that kind of person."
"I don't really believe it either, but the presidential election is coming up soon, and Major General Yuan's approval rating is ahead of Major General Lu's."
"Even the best friendship will be shattered in the face of interests!"
"Okay, okay, stop talking, let's finish eating and leave."
After saying that, several people left one after another.
The four people beside him were left with different expressions, especially Ming Qinxu, whose expression was extremely ugly.
"I'm done, you guys take your time." Ming Qinxu picked up the plate and stood up and left in a hurry.
Gu Qi and Ming Xiangnan looked at each other, and both saw a hint of solemnity in their eyes.
"Lao Yan, we've finished eating, take your time!" Gu Qi and Ming Xiangnan stood up tacitly, cleaned up the plates, and quickly ran out of the cafeteria.
Lao Yan was speechless as he looked at the empty table in a short while.
"Is it that serious? Just for some unfounded things."
After Gu Qi and Ming Xiangnan came out, they contacted Qi Ming and the three of them made an appointment to meet.
When they arrived, they found that in addition to Qi Ming, there were also Ling Beihuai, Yuan Zeyi and Lu Zhifeng.
"Have you heard about that?"
As soon as they met, Lu Zhifeng spoke first, looking very anxious.
"You mean Major General Lu and Major General Yuan?" Gu Qi nodded. "That's why we contacted you."
"This is simply impossible! It's a slander!" Lu Zhifeng was very angry, especially when he heard the rumor that Lu Yao had joined forces with people from the Osna Empire to frame Yuan Qingze.
He said this, but the others said nothing.
Lu Zhifeng paused and his expression turned cold.
"You don't doubt that this is true?"
"Of course not, but it is indeed a little suspicious." Lingbei Huaian stroked Lu Zhifeng, hesitated for a second, and then said: "I saw Major General Lu go out of the defense wall today."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Qi asked in surprise: "Did you see it too?"
Everyone understands what Gu Qi means.
Why Lu Yao would go out of the defense line alone is indeed inexplicable.
"Something's wrong." Principle, who had been silent all this time, suddenly looked up at the sky.
The sky is blue and boundless, clear and transparent.
There were a few white clouds dotted in it, there was wind blowing, but everything was still.
"Do you think the space transmitter has been interfered with by someone?" Gu Qi actually had this suspicion early on, but he had always been confused by the absolutely random setting of the space transmitter.
Since these are all made by humans, human intervention is absolutely possible.
"I'm afraid it's already chaos outside." Gu Qi said quietly.
Indeed, the situation outside is already very bad.
Starting from Yuan Yan's side, Yuan Qingze suddenly fell into a coma, and on multiple screens it could be seen that Lu Yao had gone out of the defense wall alone.
Discussions about Yuan Lu on StarNet reached an unprecedented high, even affecting Lu Yao's reputation.
"Sure enough, it is not easy for Lu Yao to become the head of state."
"It is because of the improper means used back then that the Battle of the Fall is not allowed to be mentioned. It's all because Lu Yao has the upper hand!"
"Major General Yuan is so handsome! What a pity that he made such a black-hearted friend!"
"You should always be on guard against others! Even if they are your brothers!"
Of course, there were people who defended Lu Yuan, but their words seemed insignificant in the one-sided trend.
"It's absolute nonsense!" After the incident, Admiral Ling and Lu Yao left the scene together. They entered the conference room of the Military Park, where Secretary-General Qi was waiting.
"Now everyone on StarNet believes that there was something fishy going on in the previous presidential election. Some people even suggest starting a new round of elections ahead of schedule." Secretary-General Qi turned on the computer and pulled up the data for them to see.
As shown above, Lu Yao's support rate is continuing to decline, while Yuan Yan's support rate is rising. Even Lu Zhifeng, who initially supported him, was boycotted because he is Lu Yao's son.
"It seems that this is the Yuan family's plan!" Admiral Ling slammed his fist on the table. "At that time, Aze's sacrifice was beyond our expectations. Why did he always think that it was you who caused it?"
Lu Yao sat in the chair with a calm expression. Apart from the fatigue between his brows, he seemed to be unaffected at all.
In the presidential election that year, Hara Kiyozawa's support rate was indeed higher than his at the beginning, but later Lu Yao gradually began to surpass him, and they were not at all superficial brothers as the outside world said.
They have the top six ace players, him, Yuan Qingze, Ming Qinxu, Ling Zheng, Qi Yan and Wen Yiyi, and he has the best relationship with Aze.
They didn't care who became the head of state, and even agreed that the loser would be the captain of the head of state's personal guard.
Unfortunately, the Battle of the Fall took away Yuan Qingze's life, and even Wen Yiyi and Ming Qinxu.
After World War I, the entire federal structure was reshuffled, and Lu Yao was elected head of state at the most turbulent time in the federation.
From then on, the Yuan family completely separated from the Ming, Qi and Ling families, and they kept making small moves behind the scenes.
At first, they thought Yuan was just immersed in the pain of losing his child, but who would have thought that he was getting more and more obsessed and even pointed his sword at Lu Yuan.
Therefore, they had to completely give up their plan to reconcile with the Yuan family.
Over the years, there have been constant conflicts between the two sides, but nothing major has ever happened.
But today, the Yuan family seems to have chosen to lift the curtain and officially declare war on Lu Yuan.
"What are you going to do now?" Ling Zheng looked at Lu Yao seriously. Over the years, he had seen how Lu Yao worked hard to support the federation all by himself, but now he was being slandered like this.
"Look at me, am I old?" Lu Yao suddenly smiled, his expression calm, which formed a sharp contrast with their anxiety.
"What time is it now? You are still talking about this!" Ling Zheng has always had a bad temper. He now wishes he could uproot all the people who are causing trouble behind him.
But Qi Yan remained calm. He pondered over Lu Yao's meaning and asked, "Are you going to officially start the presidential election after the competition is over?"
Although it was a question, his tone was declarative.
Ling Zheng looked at Lu Yao in shock, "Are you kidding me? You still have three years left in your term!"
Lu Yao sighed softly, "You all know that I was seriously injured that year, and my health has been getting worse in recent years. I also want to be free as soon as possible, and it seems like it would be good to take care of myself in my old age."
As he said this, he suddenly smiled.
"Otherwise I'll go to Planet 1248. Doesn't Yiyi have a house there? She also said that we'll live there when we get old."
His tone was very calm, as if he was just talking about a very everyday thing.
Ling Zheng suddenly didn't know what to say. When Aze and his men sacrificed their lives, Lu Yao risked his life to drive the Osna Empire out of the Federation. When they came to support him, they found that he had been seriously injured and he had just been holding on.
At that time, Lu Yao was in a coma for a week. After waking up, he rushed to participate in the presidential election and deal with the mess left by the previous president. As a result, his body had not recovered yet and he left behind a chronic illness.
After so many years, Lu Yao, who had always been working hard to move forward, finally seemed tired.
As brothers, all they can do is to help him leave office with honor.
"I'll go to the public relations department first, and we'll talk about the rest after the competition." Qi Yan pushed his glasses and was the first to leave the conference room.
After he left, Ling Zheng looked at Lu Yao with his eyes closed for a long time.
After a while, he said, "You take a rest first. I will go to the scene to keep an eye on Mr. Yuan."
After everyone had left, Lu Yao opened his eyes and looked outside through the window with a leisurely look.
After a long time, a sigh was heard from inside the room.
Those who are still in the simulated map do not know the situation outside and can only make inferences based on the current situation.
"If the game is not ended manually now, then we can only wait for the victory conditions in the map." Qi Ming analyzed the current situation.
"I have said before that the simulated battles will have changes in details and it is impossible for them to be exactly the same as the historical events. So the current Major General Lu is not necessarily the Major General Lu we know."
Gu Qi felt something was wrong the first time he met Lu Yao here.
She always felt that Lu Yao's character in this film seemed to be fabricated and was very different from the real Lu Yao.
She expressed this idea, but to her surprise, she received unanimous approval.
"Yes, I always feel that Major General Yuan is more like the current Uncle Lu." Ming Xiangnan said this unintentionally, but Yuan Ze's eyes moved slightly.
"If I'm not mistaken, the personalities of Major General Lu and Major General Yuan have swapped."
The author has something to say:
The test results came out, and I got second place. I was pretty happy so I went out to have fun.
So I came back late yesterday and went to bed.
Generally, if I don't update for a day, I will update the next day.
My hand speed is relatively slow, there will be another chapter later! Friends who go to bed early can get up and read it tomorrow!
