Chapter 148 Black Doctor.
"I don't want to be a manipulated pawn, but what are you doing now?"
Lu Xia felt that Xiweier's words were inconsistent.
Xiweier continued, "The current imperial environment can no longer satisfy the Dafelno family to build starships with peace of mind. It is not difficult to understand that the Dafelno family has chosen a new lord of habitat, right?"
Lu Xia sneered, "I know your purpose and ambition, but I am afraid I will disappoint you. I have no interest in the power of the empire, so you should find another lord of habitat."
Xiweier was silent for a moment after hearing this, as if he was not surprised by Lu Xia's words. If Lu Xia could be easily persuaded like this, then the Dafelno family would need to reconsider.
"Duke Lu Xia, there is no need to give the Dafelno family an answer now. One day you will change your mind, and the Dafelno family is always ready."
After the call with Xiweier ended, Lu Xia reflected on herself and whether she had done anything in the past that made the Dafelno family misunderstand that she wanted to rebel.

When Smelian changed out of his white coat and picked up his jacket to get off work, he received a message on his terminal: "No. 19, Nanxi Street."
Smelian glanced at the time, sent a message to the old housekeeper that he was going to work overtime, and drove to No. 19, Nanxi Street.
This is the area belonging to civilians on the Imperial Star. Compared with those prosperous areas, most of the buildings here are dilapidated, and the economic depression and disorder can be seen with the naked eye. The people who live here are the lower-class people on the Imperial Star and the cheapest labor on the Imperial Star. Smelian got out of the car and shuttled among them skillfully. Obviously, this was not his first time here. It was not
until he arrived at No. 19 Nanxi Street that Smelian confirmed the house number, raised his hand, pushed open the door in front of him and walked in. The tall male waiting at the door was wearing a black uniform. Smelian's face changed when he saw this. He knew very well what the black uniform represented-they were the rebels.
The rebels were actually in the Imperial Star and sent him such a message. Smellian remained calm and said, "I'm afraid I can't take this business. You should find someone else."
"Will you consider it again, sir?" The other party said in a deep voice, as if he was not surprised that Smellian would refuse. Smellian turned around and refused coldly, "There's nothing to consider."
The door behind him was closed at this moment. Smellian looked back at the other party: "What does this mean?"
The other party opened the terminal, then sent the light screen to Smellian, and then raised his hand to signal him to look at the light screen.
Just as Smellian looked at the light screen in confusion, he saw Grace on the other side of the light screen. She was wearing the same black uniform, which was the uniform of the rebels, different from the dark blue of the imperial army.
Smellian's pupils suddenly dilated: "Grace, you?"
He couldn't believe that the missing Grace would become a rebel, but everything in front of him was enough to show that Grace was not only a rebel, but also a senior general in the rebels, and even very likely a commander.
At this moment, Smellian had a lot of thoughts in his mind. He couldn't help but wonder, was Grace turned over by the rebels, or had Grace always been a rebel?
"Smellian, long time no see. I know you have been taking orders on the black market. The black doctor in the rumor is you. Now I need your help. The person inside is one of my subordinates. I need you to cure him."
Smellian listened to Grace speaking to him in a firm tone, as if she firmly believed that he would not refuse. Smellian sneered, "Why should I agree to you?"
"Just because we are both Xia Xia's males, is that enough?"
"You still have the nerve to mention Xia Xia at this time. Do you know how worried Xia Xia is about your disappearance?"
Speaking of Lu Xia, Smelian became even more angry.
Facing Smelian's questioning, Grace was silent. After a long time, he said, "I'm sorry, but there are some things I have to do, Smelian. I don't want Lu Xia to suffer any more grievances in the empire. I can't do this with my position as the major general of the First Military Region, but as the commander of the rebel army, there are many things I can do."
"I have heard about what happened to you and Xia Xia, Smelian, and you should know very well who Her Majesty the Queen is. So you should be able to understand what I am saying."
Smelian did understand. He stared at Grace in silence, as if to confirm whether Grace was lying. During the time he spent with Grace and Lu Xia, he knew very well that Grace cherished Lu Xia and that he would not joke about Lu Xia, so his words were very credible.
The two looked at each other for a long time, and Smelian finally compromised and asked, "Where are your people?"
Grace did not hesitate and directly asked someone to take Smelian in to check on the injured.
As a famous black doctor in the black market, Smelian is very capable, and no one can compare to him in the field of trauma.
Smelian did not ask Grace how he knew his identity. After all, he has been hiding well over the years and has done a lot with this identity. But Grace has become the leader of the rebel army, so what can he not know?
Everyone has their own secrets. Just like he didn't ask Grace why she became the leader of the rebel army, Grace would not ask him how he became a black doctor.
The person in the house was seriously injured. Smellian treated the wound and bandaged it with quick movements. He also left enough anti-inflammatory drugs and said, "He needs a quiet and safe environment to recuperate. This place is not suitable. You should leave as soon as possible."
After that, he looked at Grace on the screen again: "When are you going to tell Xia Xia about your affairs, or do you always want her to think that you are missing?"
"I will tell her in person, Smellian, but not now, and please keep it a secret for me. It is very dangerous for her to know everything now."
Smellian warned: "You'd better do everything well and don't implicate Xia Xia, otherwise, I will never let you go."
"Of course, if I can't do it, I won't let myself go either. Thank you, Smelian, I'm afraid I will need your help in the future."
Smelian turned around: "Let's talk about it then!"
After coming out of No. 19 Nanxi Street, Smelian got on the hovercraft directly. He knew very well that Grace would do the cleanup work well. If he couldn't even do this well, then he could directly surrender as the leader of the rebel army.
He had not yet decided whether to tell Lu Xia about all that he had learned today. It could be said that he had been passively boarding Grace's "pirate ship".
But he did not seem to regret it. He had met many people in the black market over the years, and he had heard about what kind of person Her Majesty the Queen was. So what Grace was going to do now was not so difficult for Smelian to accept. His only worry was that Grace would not do well and implicate Lu Xia.
