Chapter 304: Is it considered a backstab?
As seeds spread rapidly throughout the palace, the entire palace looked normal, yet with a hint of weirdness.
The insects inside usually do the same thing every day, and no one can notice anything unusual for a while.
The little prince's actions unfolded quickly.
The hospital where the seriously injured male insect prince was staying was attacked again. His already fragile body lost the possibility of rescue on the spot, and he only had one breath left.
Just when all the insects were in a state of panic, another male prince also got into trouble.
He was cuddling with a lower-level male insect.
The scene was embarrassing and decadent.
Even this matter was not exposed by any foreign insects, but was witnessed by the old insect emperor himself.
The male insect quickly picked up his clothes and tried to cover himself up, but the shame and blush on his face had not yet faded.
But as luck would have it, the Insect Emperor came with reporters and cameras.
Although the old insect emperor wanted to protect him, he couldn't do anything behind the scenes in a situation where all the insects could see him. He could only ask in a cold voice: "What do you want to say?"
If this incident can be explained as coercion, there may be a glimmer of hope.
But this male gentleman was usually arrogant and didn't hear the female father's hidden meaning at all. Instead, he was somewhat dissatisfied with the female father's tone: "There's nothing to say. I like this bug too."
Although those cameras did not dare to turn on their flash to challenge the majesty of the Insect Emperor, they still silently recorded everything.
The reporters around were both excited and scared.
Catching big news is certainly worth celebrating, but you should also be concerned about the possibility of losing your life.
Thanks to the journalists' professional qualities, these bugs didn't show any sign of misconduct. They put on decent smiles and waited for the guards to clean up the mess before going in for the interview.
The content of the interview is nothing more than the intention of selecting female monarchs, the requirements and opinions on female insects.
But this time, almost no insects paid attention to the interview, and their eyes occasionally glanced at the male insect's lower body.
But as soon as they left, the Star Network was immediately filled with excitement, as if it was about to explode, with rumors spreading everywhere.
…
"What do you want to do?"
The little prince once again appeared in the palace where the male insects were imprisoned.
There was not much of a smile in the eyes of this male insect whose level was close to double S. Instead, there was a hint of fear.
Although he had no evidence, his reason told him that the series of recent events were related to the smiling bug in front of him.
Although this insect seems to be powerless and only fits in the darkest shadows, it is not noticeable at all.
The little prince slowly hid the things in his hands, and smiled as usual with his eyebrows raised: "Only a few days are left, just wait, I will make sure both of us are safe and sound, you don't have to be afraid."
The old Insect Emperor obviously noticed that something was wrong during this period of time. Whether it was those inexplicable assassinations that came from nowhere or the misfortunes that happened one after another around him, they all made him realize that some insects wanted to do something.
His first reaction was that they were aliens, but after several investigations he found that the aliens showed no signs of abnormal movement.
So all this happened... because of a heart worm?
The old emperor did not say anything, but quietly assigned more guards to his side. At the same time, he closely monitored every move in the palace, but found nothing.
On the contrary, the probability of royal family members being assassinated has greatly increased.
Although they were all minor incidents.
It doesn't matter for female insects, but the male insects who can't beat the female insects at all can easily lose their lives if they don't hide fast enough.
He had already assigned numerous guarding insects to his dying son, ready to capture the troublemaker, or the insect under his command, but he had no idea.
It's like it disappeared.
But other insects continue to encounter dangers.
The little prince did not arouse any suspicion. After all, he was an unfavored prince who had difficulty even getting nutrients on time.
The old emperor's expression became more and more ugly. He searched the palace carefully and found nothing unusual, except...
The area where he housed the males was invaded twice.
When I bought it, I was told that it was a device that could only allow entry but not exit, but insects still easily came and went.
For a moment, the old emperor wanted to sue the technical backbones under his command.
The figure in the surveillance video looked familiar, but I never saw the face, so I couldn't remember who it was.
After racking his brains, the old insect emperor decided not to bother himself anymore and decided to go directly to the insect in question to find out the truth.
"Have any bugs come to you these days?"
The old insect emperor had a very stern expression, and he didn't show any respect to the male insect at all.
If he had to choose between the two S-rank male insects, he would still care more about his own family. Moreover, the situation was becoming increasingly chaotic. If things continued like this, half of the royal family would be slaughtered.
"I do not know, Your Majesty."
The male insect raised his head neither humbly nor arrogantly, without any fear.
This kind of look... made the Old Insect Emperor secretly surprised.
Generally speaking, male insects do not have such great ambitions. Even their tempers are gradually developed by female insects and are not scary at all.
In other words, it's just a paper tiger.
However, the insect in front of him was clearly not in this situation and was full of confidence.
But looking at it this way, it becomes even more suspicious. There were clearly bugs that got in, but he said he didn't know?
Male insects also have problems.
The old Insect Emperor did not choose to tear his face off on the spot, but just sat down on a chair prepared nearby.
He soon remembered the female he had forgotten about before.
Come to think of it, there must be some resentment in your heart, right?
"I have already selected your female monarch insect. The female servant and the female slave are happy to have a plan. I will send the list to you for your review. If you are not satisfied, you can change it."
The male insect nodded.
The Insect Emperor continued, "Your previous engagement partner was not qualified to make decisions on his own, so in order to punish him, I will break his insect wings as an explanation to you."
The male raised his head in surprise.
"Or do you have a better punishment? You can kill him, don't worry."
The male insect's heart visibly twitched twice.
He closed his eyes and said in a hoarse voice: "I'm not angry, can you please not punish him?"
The wings of female insects are their second life. If a female insect loses its wings, it is almost the same as being dead.
The Insect Emperor already had a rough idea in his mind, and he easily gave in: "Then I hope you can cooperate with me."
The male insect nodded again, but his movements were extremely stiff.
That day, the little prince was rudely dragged in front of the Insect Emperor.
