Time passed slowly, the election of members of parliament was completed, and the various government departments began to get busy again to prepare for the next election of the prime minister.

The time slowly came to August, and the Star Palace issued an announcement that the registration for the prime minister's election will begin from now on, and all eligible personnel can start to register for half a month.

This time was different from the past, the number of applicants surged, a week passed, eighteen people registered, and twelve of them submitted their campaign plans to the Star Palace for review.

The election programs of the nine were approved by the emperor, and the election programs of the three were denied, respecting their own wishes, and the election programs of the unsuccessful ones were not made public.

Another week passed slowly, and the registration channel was closed.

Twenty-nine people signed up to run for election, 22 people's platforms were approved by the emperor, and 22 candidates for prime minister began an 80-day canvassing campaign.

For a time, the media began to run more campaign ads, and this year, unlike in the past, the empire's territory has expanded, and the corresponding expenses have also increased a lot, so the amount of funds allowed to be raised by the various candidates has also increased.

Forty days into the canvassing campaign, three candidates were directly investigated and dealt with by the Ministry of Supervision for the simple reason that the source of funds was unknown.

One of them spent as much as 70 million star coins on advertising on major online platforms and TV stations alone, and bus stop signs and outdoor advertising in various cities have not been counted.

It was clear that he had accepted secret financial assistance, and the Ministry of Supervision was not soft at all in dealing with it, which also made the heads of other candidates suddenly calm down, and those who originally planned to play a little trick gave up one after another.

The number of candidates has become nineteen, and although the number of personnel has decreased, the competition has become more intense.

On November 20, voting began for the prime minister's election, and after a week of voting, none of the 19 candidates received more than 40 percent of the vote.

Xu Jie, Mayor of Xingguang City, Deyo, Minister of Foreign Affairs, and Heidi, Mayor of Aurora City, received the highest percentage of votes and began to enter the second round of the prime minister election.

After a month-long canvassing process, the second round of voting began, and four days later, the Joint Monitoring Group announced the results of the vote count.

Xu Jie, the mayor of Starlight City, received 46.3% of the votes and became the new prime minister of the Star Spirit Empire.

Deyo and Heidi failed, and they also made congratulatory remarks peacefully, congratulating Xu Jie on becoming the new prime minister of the Star Spirit Empire.

Nine Heavens City, Apocalypse Manor, in the restaurant, the smell of wine wafts.

Xu Ping'an, Ma Bo, Lin Yide, Li Rulong, Xu Mingyang, Zhang Wenyuan, six people were drinking, all wearing flip-flops, and the buttons of their shirts were also unbuttoned.

A group of old men behaved very strongly, focusing on Xu Mingyang, Xu Jie is Xu Mingyang's second son.

This time the victory in the general election, the shadow of the brothers is indispensable behind it, Xu Ping'an did not come forward, but supported the campaign funds of five million star coins.

Ma Bo and others all contributed money and efforts.

Xu Mingyang is really happy, he didn't refuse, he really didn't expect his kid to come to this point.

Everyone present, except for Li Rulong, can be said to have an in-law relationship with Xu Ping'an, Ma Bo's son Ma Fengming took Xu Ping'an's daughter, and the two are close to each other.

Zhang Wenyuan's youngest daughter Zhang Qingya married Xu Kun's son Xu Siguang, and the two are a generation apart, and this generation is completely chaotic.

Zhang Wenyuan and Xu Kun are directly opposed, but they are eye-to-eye, Xu Siguang and Zhang Qingya have to be together.

At that time, there was a lot of trouble, and in the end, Xu Ping'an came forward to let Xu Siguang and Zhang Qingya have lovers and finally become married.

Lin Yide's daughter is Xu Wentao's wife.

Xu Jie also took Xu Ping'an's daughter, who was Xu Ping'an's fast son-in-law.

After Li Rulong retired, with the help of his brothers, he made a big profit in the financial market and entered the ranks of billionaires.

In the future, when I get old, all the family property will be left to Ma Xue.

Several men were drinking hotly on the side, and a woman in the other room was drinking tea and playing cards and chatting, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Xu Ping'an moved to Nine Heavens City, and Ma Bo and several people also moved over, the environment here is better than that of Earth and Mars, and they have all settled in Nine Heavens City, and they don't live far away.

Xu Wentao came to handle this matter, and on the surface, he told Ma Bo and a few people that there was a 40% discount, but in fact, Xu Ping'an made up for the 40% discount.

Today, money is meaningless to Xu Ping'an, and comfort is what Xu Ping'an is pursuing.

Time passed slowly, Xu Jie went to the Star Palace to take the oath of office, took over the prime minister's scepter from Xu Qian's hand, and became the seventh prime minister of the Star Spirit Empire.

After the handover of Xu Jie and Xu Wentao, the government departments began to take a holiday and began to celebrate the Spring Festival.

This year's Spring Festival is particularly lively, Xu Yingnan was also released from prison, and she and her husband also came to Jiutian City to see Xu Ping'an.

In the end, it was his first daughter, Xu Ping'an secretly transferred 100 million star coins to Xu Yingnan, so that the two could start again and live a low-key life.

After the Spring Festival, one morning, after Xu Ping'an and Dalina ran and exercised, they took a shower, changed their clothes, ate breakfast, and walked in the garden.

"Thank you," Darina said suddenly.

Xu Ping'an was stunned for a moment, then understood what was going on, patted Dalina's hand and said, "We don't need to be like this, she is also my daughter."

Dalina nodded, held Xu Ping'an's hand and continued to walk, although Dalina didn't say it in her heart, Xu Yingnan's matter was also a heart disease.

Now that Xu Yingnan has been released from prison, Xu Ping'an's approach has made Dalina very warm, and the depression in her heart over the years has been swept away.

"In a few days, I will call Guo Changhe over and reconcile their father and son" Xu Ping'an said again, Dalina nodded, and she couldn't be more satisfied.

Xu Ping'an raised his hand and scratched Dalina's nose, Dalina was still the same as before, obedient to Xu Ping'an, gentle as water, and never fought anything.

Xu Ping'an's mind thought of this, Liu Wenjun's figure flashed directly from his mind, although Xu Ping'an's face did not change, his mood dropped a lot inexplicably.

Time slowly passed a week, and on this day, Xu Yingnan and Guo Xiaofeng arrived at Xu Ping'an, and Guo Changhe also arrived at Xu Ping'an in a military uniform.

Xu Ping'an beckoned everyone to eat together, reconciled Guo Changhe with Guo Xiaofeng's father and son, and served Xu Yingnan and Guo Xiaofeng vegetables from time to time.

Isabella and Darina were also persuaded by the side, and the expression on Guo Changhe's face relaxed.

Guo Xiaofeng and Xu Yingnan also stood up to admit their mistakes to Guo Changhe and toasted Guo Changhe, Guo Changhe took the wine and drank it, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

After dinner, Xu Ping'an and Guo Changhe went to the garden outside for a walk and chatted, Guo Xiaofeng and Xu Yingnan were accompanying Isabella to talk to Darena.

In the garden, Guo Changhe suddenly said, "Your Majesty, I plan to write to His Majesty Xu Qian in a few years to apply for retirement."

"How can you have such an idea" Xu Ping'an was very surprised.

"I'm a little tired," Guo Changhe said with a smile on his face.

Xu Ping'an smiled and patted Guo Changhe's shoulder, the years are unforgiving, Guo Changhe has been in the military system all his life, and it is time to take a good rest.

"The military must be independent, it must be controlled by the emperor, do you have the right candidate?" asked Xu Ping'an.

"There are several, and I have made a plan to change the current five giants of the military into twelve generals and establish a military joint committee as the highest body of the military"

"The power of the military giants is too concentrated, and it is not a good thing for the military to have a long expectation, and the flow of high-level personnel can maintain the stability of the military," Guo Changhe said directly.

Xu Ping'an nodded, thought for a while and said, "You go back to Xu Qian to discuss this matter, I believe that Xu Qian will support you, there are some things that are not good for me to participate in."

"I understand," Guo Changhe said directly.

With Xu Ping'an, Guo Changhe said something, there was no pressure in his heart, and with Xu Qian, he had a sense of restraint.

The two discussed the adjustment of the high-level military department while walking, today Guo Changhe lives here in Xu Ping'an, and Xu Yingnan and Guo Xiaofeng also live in Xu Ping'an.

The three of them left the next day, and a week later, Guo Changhe went to the Star Palace with the report to discuss with Xu Qian about the reform of the military department and weaken the power of the current five giants.

Guo Changhe's approach made Xu Qian full of emotion, looking at the people promoted by Xu Ping'an, all of them were loyal, and the reform of the military department was equivalent to weakening Guo Changhe's power and increasing the emperor's power.

Guo Changhe did such a thing without hesitation, how could Xu Qian not sigh, and his trust in Guo Changhe increased several layers in his heart.

In the end, Guo Changhe's proposal that he would retire in a few years was directly denied by Xu Gan, and he directly stated that he would give Guo Changhe a two-month vacation.

Directly let Guo Changhe go to Huoxing Sea City to recuperate for two months, and it will be the same every year in the future, and the cost will be borne by Xinggong.

Xu Qian's words were at this point, and Guo Changhe couldn't insist on saying that he planned to retire.

Half a month later, Guo Changhe began to take a vacation for three months, and the reason why it was increased by one month was because Xu Qian contacted that there was only three months to complete a recuperation cycle.

The reform of the military department will be put aside for a while, and then it will be carried out when Guo Changhe returns from recuperation.

Time passed day by day, and on this day, the Government Council issued a notice to reform the identity authentication of the Star Spirit Empire, and the national ID card living in Mars was marked with the word Mars.

The ID card of the Chinese who lives in the Apocalypse Star is marked with the word Apocalypse Star on it, preparing for the next empire to easily manage other planets.

At the same time, it was announced that the Apocalypse Planet National Project 2.0 project was launched, and now the Imperial Treasury is not short of money, and there are a lot of funds lying on the books.

Moreover, there are a lot of building materials and other materials stored in Mars and Apocalypse, many of which are used by various countries to cover their accounts.

It is the time to vigorously carry out infrastructure construction, and to make use of these materials can not only complete the country's infrastructure construction, but also increase income.

Xu Jie knew exactly what he had to do.

A new round of economic stimulus policies of the Star Spirit Empire began, and Xu Ping'an took his four ladies to start traveling, and the first stop was to go to the earth of the solar system.

Global tourism, with only three escorts by side, one in the light and two in the dark.

According to Xu Ping'an's plan, one circle of the earth, one circle of Mars, one circle of space, and one circle of the Apocalypse, the rest of the time is spent at home to accompany his wife, after all, his time is running out.

The universe, the unknown space

On this day, the spider civilization spaceship that was robbed by two octopus civilizations flew into a galaxy and flew towards a huge planet in the galaxy, and suddenly, eight huge light clusters flew towards the spacecraft.

The flying machine stopped in the air, and soon, a huge light cluster reached the front of the flying machine, and there were eight huge octopuses, each with a huge energy circle behind it, emitting a golden light.

This is the highest combat power of the Octopus civilization, a member of the Golden God of War Legion.

Don't look at the octopus civilization is very powerful, with billions of personnel, and less than 10,000 people can evolve to the golden level, and every member of the Golden God of War Legion can be a hundred.

It is the guarantee for the continued development of octopus civilization.

Soon, Kai and Alita, who were in the flying machine, flew out, carrying a huge black circle of light behind them.

Kai and Alita immediately bowed on their four legs and said loudly, "Sinner Kai, Alita, betrayed the deep space of the universe in exile, and now finds the news that can forgive sins and return to the home planet."

One of the golden octopuses frowned, and with a wave of its tentacles, a screen appeared in front of it, directly displaying Kai and Alita's information on the screen.

After comparison, it was the two clansmen in front of him.

"What news have you found, if it is a civilization, it is not enough to absolve you of your past sins," the golden octopus looked at the two and said directly.

Kai and Alita looked at each other, and Kai began to speak, "I understand that on the way to our wanderings, we discovered the ruins of the Dark Temple that our civilization has been lost for a long time."

"What" the golden octopus was collectively shocked.

The legend of the Dark Temple has been around for more than a billion years, and it disappeared after the internal strife of the octopus civilization, and the victorious faction spent hundreds of millions of years not finding it.

Legend has it that the Dark Temple contains the secret of allowing the golden people of the Octopus Civilization to further evolve and break through this cosmic dimension into a higher dimensional universe.

The aperture behind the newly born members of the octopus civilization is gray, and as they grow older, they will slowly evolve to black, then silver, then gold.

Gray, black, silver, and gold are the four major stages of the evolution of the octopus civilization.

At the end of physics is mathematics, at the end of mathematics is philosophy, and at the end of philosophy is theology.

The end of technology is God!

The octopus civilization itself is a scientific and technological civilization, but the development of science and technology is almost reaching the civilization of the gods.

The civilization of the gods does not mean that you can break through the dimensional universe, it only means that you have reached a certain limit in the use of energy, and your individual evolution has reached an unbelievable point.

If you want to break through the limitations and enter a higher dimension, you need to increase the research of space and power, both of which are indispensable.

In the ancient records of the Octopus Civilization, there is a secret in the Dark Temple owned by the rebels that further purifies the Octopus Civilization.

If this secret can be mastered, it will become possible to break through the current dimensional constraints.

Therefore, the octopus civilization has made a rule to exile some criminal clansmen to the unknown deep space of the universe to find the dark temple.

As long as you can find it, it will forgive you all your sins, and invest resources to make you evolve to the next level, and other rewards, in short, very rich.

"Kai, did you know that reporting false news is a heavy sentence," the golden octopus said in a loud voice.

"I understand, please take us to the Council of Elders, and we'll show the evidence," Kay said very calmly.

Several golden octopuses looked at each other, and they all nodded secretly, and the golden octopus who asked began to report, and it didn't take long to receive a reply.

"You return to the aircraft, I will take you back to your home planet, and the elders will listen to your report in the temple," said the golden octopus, and both Kay and Alita looked happy.

With a flash of black light, the two returned to the aircraft and began to fly in front of them under the escort of eight golden octopuses.

More than two months later, I entered the atmosphere of a huge planet, and in front of me was a series of circular buildings, divided into four colors: gray, black, silver, and gold.

All the buildings are arranged like targets, spreading out one punch at a time, and in the center is the golden building.

Gray buildings are the least tall, followed by black, and gold buildings are the tallest and majestic, with a sacred aura.

The ship stopped at a suspended building, and the golden octopus took Kai and Alita to the golden building in the center, where the temple of the octopus civilization and the presbytery was located.

The golden oval building is huge, and when the eight golden octopuses lead Kai and Alita in, golden octopuses begin to appear on the golden seats around the building.

There were eight hundred seats in a circle, and there were five huge golden thrones protruding in the middle, and five very large octopuses appeared on them.

The Dark Temple is related to the future of the Octopus civilization, and the five bigwigs who are rarely seen in ordinary times have also appeared.

Seeing the five bigwigs appear, the eight golden octopus, as well as Kai and Alita, also knelt down and saluted, shouting "Meet my king!".

The huge golden octopus sitting in the middle of the throne is the current supreme king, and he is titled [God].

"Get Up"

"Kai, tell me what you have discovered, and if the news you bring back is true, you will be forgiven of all sins and will be rewarded."

"Thank you, my king," Kai said in unison with Alita, and then stood up.

"My king, after we were exiled to the deep space of the universe, we began to wander ....................."

"The ruins of the Dark Temple are dilapidated, and after some searching, we have a harvest"

"My king, please see, this is the evidence we found" Kai raised his hand after speaking, and a black pyramid appeared in his hand, and the entire black pyramid exuded a very strange charm.

The surrounding light on the top of the pyramid was absorbed by the pyramid, and everyone looked at the pyramid curiously, including the five on the throne.

The god watched as the pyramid stretched out its tentacles and waved, and the pyramid flew away from Kai's tentacles, flying towards the throne little by little.

At this moment, the god waved his tentacles at the pyramid again, and a golden light flew out and shot into the pyramid, and the volume of the black pyramid began to grow.

At this time, everyone began to be surprised, and a trace of light around it flew into the black pyramid visibly with the naked eye.

Soon, the god emitted a ray of light again, and the black pyramid began to shrink in size, slowly flying in front of the huge throne.

"It is indeed an item of the Dark Temple, the Dark Energy Body, an unknown power that can compete with the power we have at our disposal," the god spoke.

"Have you recorded the star map," God asked.

"Recorded," Kai said immediately, and with a wave of his hand, a huge star map appeared with a golden dot on it, and that spot was where the ruins of the Dark Temple were located.

"My king, we have also found a civilization address" Kai said and waved his tentacles again, and another star map appeared, and the location of the spider civilization was clearly marked.

God began to counsel with the four around him, and the other members of the Presbyterian Church began to talk to each other.

Soon, the god and the other four giants discussed the result: "Kai, Alita, you have discovered a new civilization and found the long-lost ruins of the Dark Temple"

"Now I declare that you will forgive your sins and restore your people"

"Give you two to enter the holy pool for baptism, be promoted to the silver level, and give ................."
