Chapter 325: Actions, Not Hearts
“Long Ziyan, as you are a member of the royal family, the people of Zilang Prefecture have the obligation to support you.
But you should also be worthy of their offerings and take the responsibility of protecting them.
But you, what did you do?
Embezzling military pay, eating, drinking and having fun, passively resisting, and concealing military intelligence..."
Before Long Qingdai could finish her words, she was interrupted by Long Ziyan, who looked disdainful.
“That’s it!
What have I done wrong? Is it your turn, Long Qingdai, to judge me?
Win over the hearts of the people in Zilang Mansion in front of me.
Long Qingdai, you passed!"
Long Qingdai was so angry that she was shaking all over and couldn't speak.
Before Long Ziyan had time to feel proud, a cold voice rang out.
"Long Qingdai can't control you, but what about me?"
Long Ziyan trembled all over, turned his head with a trembling body, and saw a familiar, cold face.
"Third Uncle~"
Long Ziyan's voice trembled, as if filled with endless fear.
In contrast, Long Qingdai was much calmer.
"Lord Zong Ling!"
Not trying to gain connections but calling someone by their official title may not be a warning.
I don’t know how much Long Zhao heard or how he made the decision, but Long Qingdai must strike first.
In fact, Long Qingdai was worrying too much.
As the head of the clan affairs office, Long Zhao always stands on the side of clan and national interests in everything he does.
"As the clan leader and your third uncle, I always judge by deeds rather than by heart.
Any member of my royal family who devotes his entire life to the empire, the royal family, and the people is good and worthy of praise.
Whether you are pretending or not, and for what purpose, I can ignore it.
Do you... understand?"
Although the question was addressed to "you guys", Long Ziyan always felt that Long Zhao was criticizing him.
Long Ziyan's back instantly became wet and he fell to the ground.
But in fact, Long Zhao might not have the intention of warning Long Qingdai.
Since Long Zhao asked "you", Long Qingdai, as a junior, cannot ignore it.
"Qingdai, I understand!"
Long Zhao glanced at Long Ziyan, who had collapsed into a puddle, snorted coldly, waved his hand, and signaled his men to take him away.
After Long Ziyan's figure disappeared, Long Zhao turned back to look at the devastated Zilang Mansion, then looked at Long Qingdai and said softly, "Please bear with it."
If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight.
Although this was a sin committed by Long Ziyan, he could not handle the finishing work, and had no way to handle it, so it had to be handed over to Long Qingdai, the ruler of a country.
Long Qingdai immediately understood Long Zhao's profound meaning and said with a wry smile, "Qingdai, I understand!"
Long Zhao patted her shoulder, sighed, and said sincerely, "I have always felt that girls should be treated well and pampered.
But you just had to step into this muddy water.
Do you regret it? "
Long Qingdai finally understood Long Zhao's hesitation and his good intentions, but...
"Even if I die nine times, I will never regret it!"
She must prove that she can become a qualified emperor, for herself, for the countless princesses whose talents are buried, and for the millions of women in the empire.
Long Zhao understood her stubbornness and persistence, sighed, took out an anonymous black card from the storage space and handed it to her.
"Uncle San can only help you up to this point!"
Long Qingdai smiled!
"Thank you, Uncle San!"
This was the only genuine smile and the most sincere gratitude Long Qingdai had ever given since she ascended the throne.
Just because, this man who devoted his life to the royal family and the empire until his death, is worth it!
With Long Zhao's savings of many years, Long Qingdai contacted Elizabeth again, bought a resettlement plan, and introduced a construction team and a planting team.
The latest quarter's research funds for the Central Corps' laboratories have arrived, and the restoration and reconstruction project of Zilang Mansion has officially started.
The mutant plant defense system composed of nightshades and rainbow pansies ensures that there will be no more safety hazards near the black hole.
Mutated plants, including but not limited to acid charge, absorb black fog and convert crystal cores, providing the Central Legion with a new batch of raw materials for unnatural awakening powers.
What?
Does your Empire want it too?
It's not impossible, but the price...
Long Qingdai, who had been cheated twice, was almost laughing out of anger.
But when she saw that the newly recovered planet was restored to its original habitable state by the planting team in just seven days, and was transformed by the construction team into a school that was as big as the Alliance's First Military Academy and was ready for occupancy at any time, Long Qingdai suddenly felt that those credit points were nothing.
Time is life, it is efficiency.
Zilang Mansion can’t wait, and neither can she, Long Qingdai.
Long Qingdai raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and without hesitation she named the school "Imperial Royal Academy" and appointed Lord Zong Ling Long Zhao as the principal of the school.
All underage royal family members must complete six years of courses again before they can receive the salary that belongs to them alone.
As for the school motto?
It must be: The emperor guards the national gate, and the king dies for the country.
With this school motto, the royal family members who were originally extremely resistant suddenly became very obedient.
Long Qingdai firmly grasped the lifeblood of the royal family, especially those on the imperial heir rankings. Long Qingdai's nephews actively expressed:
Willing to stay in the Imperial Royal Academy, defend Zilan Mansion, and devote himself to the empire until his death.
At this moment, Long Qingdai couldn't help but think of Long Zhao's words "judge by deeds, not by heart".
Perhaps, it was not that Long Zhao could not see through things, but that only by pretending to be ignorant could he make himself feel better.
Long Qingdai sighed, took back the appointment letters for other important positions in the Imperial Royal Academy, and left this power completely to Long Zhao.
Looking at the dark fog in the distance, Long Qingdai raised her hand and sent a message to Huo Qingyu:
"When that day comes and new hope for the empire emerges, we'll find a beautiful place, hide our identities, and live the ordinary life you described!"
After sending the message, without waiting for Huo Qingyu's reply, he turned and walked into the starship to deal with the official business that would never be finished.
This includes but is not limited to how to accommodate the refugee crisis caused by the Zerg invasion war.
Long Qingdai pondered for a moment and paid an extra small target of credit points.
After finding out the refugees' original planets, the planting team and the construction team immediately locked onto the planets Borneo and Taihe.
You can always trust the power of credit points and the speed of the Central Corps.
In just seven days, the planets of Borneo and Taihe were restored and rebuilt by the planting and construction teams sent by the Central Legion.
It cannot be said to be exactly the same, it can only be said to be better or worse.
The planet planning is more reasonable, and the administrative districts, commercial districts, residential areas, and urban supporting systems are all very complete.
Even the defense system has been upgraded, and it can withstand the attack of high-level Zerg for half an hour. As long as you call for help in time, you will most likely receive reinforcements.
This is so thoughtful.
The refugees' broken hearts were healed in a matter of minutes.
