Chapter 280 Pouring Oil (Part II)
The atmosphere of the imperial meeting was still so heavy and depressing, as the chief cabinet minister, Lord Qin Xiangtian did not attend this meeting, because there was a group of robbers who were running around in the northeast of the empire, and it was said that they were very well-equipped, which caused a lot of trouble to the border of the empire, and Lord Qin personally led the Qin family army to exterminate it, which was already five days ago.
Queen Kate frowned and looked at all the ministers present, none of them objected, none of them agreed, and none of them expressed their position. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info she has become accustomed to the "style" of these ministers. She glanced at her son, who was visibly already gloomy, staring at the ministers. Queen Kate glanced at the Home Secretary LaBelle again, still smiling and keeping his head down to take minutes.
"How about it, Aiqing, what suggestions or opinions do you have on my proposal just now? If not, it will be decided! You all know that the interstellar bandits are becoming more and more rampant, and if they are not rectified in time, I am afraid that even the territory of the empire will be surrendered!" said the prince very forcefully.
Lake Sriel glanced at Prince Roserie beside him, since the end of the anniversary, the two of them had not done anything else, and had been actively searching for the illegitimate son of His Majesty the Emperor. Months passed, and there was no news. I got information some time ago that the person who was buried in the Qin family's army was not a real illegitimate child, but someone deliberately released false information to divert his attention. The two immediately realized that their opponents were also starting to act.
"Your Highness," Chancellor Lake said calmly, "the matter about interstellar pirates has only recently appeared. Previously, under the blows of the Wehrmacht and the Qin Family's Army, the interstellar pirates were basically extinct, and they did not dare to cross the Koboy Belt and the Oort Cloud into the territory of the empire. I think it's better not to rush to set up a base station and recruit mercenary troops, the top priority is to find out the source of this group of interstellar pirates, so that it is conducive to cutting the grass and eradicating the roots!"
The prince sat back in his chair, his anger gradually subsided, he glanced at LaBelle who looked down to record, and thought to himself that Lake didn't speak before, what should he do now?
The Imperial Council fell silent again!
"Lord Sriel is right," Prince Rosri said without losing any time, "I don't know what kind of interstellar bandit is so bold that he dares to go deep into the territory of the empire without anyone noticing, I feel terrible when I think it's very necessary to investigate this matter thoroughly before making a decision!"
"That's good," the crown prince glared fiercely at LaBel, who bowed his head and was silent, "I'll leave this matter to ......."
"Your Highness," LaBelle suddenly raised his head and interrupted the prince's words and said: "Your Highness, Weichen proposes that this matter should be investigated by the Deputy Minister of Engineering, Lord Tom Cologne, after all, he presides over the construction of the Space Passage Coordinate Tower and related matters, and often travels back and forth between the solar system and the Centauri, so he knows the situation there more and is easy to get started!"
The crown prince glanced at his own uncle, and then at his mother, and quickly concealed the strange look on his face, which was not arranged like this before! Last night, LaBelle repeatedly instructed himself that if anyone proposed to investigate the matter of the interstellar robbers, he would transfer the matter to the prince and let him investigate. But now, LaBelle actually changed his plan temporarily, which made the prince really confused.
Prince Rosary and Minister Sriel glanced at each other, they both knew very well that Tom was now a popular man in front of the crown prince, and more importantly, he was the largest creditor of the empire today, and the Imperial Council made a big concession on the resolution to agree with him to preside over the construction of the coordinate tower of the space passage, and if he got involved in the matter of interstellar pirates, it would not be a joke. Prince Rosley coughed and said, "Your Highness, Queen," he deliberately reminded his beautiful sister-in-law in this way that the prince could not be allowed to make trouble, "Lord Cologne presided over the construction of the spatial coordinate tower, which was originally a time-consuming and laborious work, and if you were distracted to do other things, it would inevitably lead to a mistake in the construction of the coordinate tower, and the consequences would be unimaginable." Lao Chen thinks that it is better to find another candidate, right?"
Queen Kate has been busy preparing for the prince's accession to the throne recently, and she doesn't know much about the prince's movements, but she knows from her subordinates that the prince is eating, drinking, and fighting crickets every day. Queen Kate also hopes from the bottom of her heart that the crown prince will not worry too much about state affairs, and his existence can only be regarded as a springboard for Kate now, a springboard for controlling the empire. Queen Kate glanced at LaBelle, this dead eunuch is definitely a dangerous person, you must be careful.
"The prince is right, the spatial channel is related to the economic lifeline of the empire, and there is no room for error. I think I'll leave the investigation of the interstellar bandits to Prince Rossley and Lord Sriel!" Queen Kate said this, and caught a glimpse of LaBelle with her head down and quickly recording on the paper, a subtle smile on the corner of her mouth. Queen Kate's heart throbbed a few times, and she bit her lip lightly, but she didn't have a seizure. She tried her best to calm down, and secretly blamed herself for being too careless, and actually fell for this dead eunuch, and this arrangement was in his hands. Empress Kate unconsciously began to admire the strategy of this eunuch, it seems that she really underestimated him, then again, Queen Kate actually didn't know anything about this eunuch who had waited for the old emperor for half his life.
The crown prince also glanced at LaBel, whose mother's decision brought the meeting back to his and LaBel's original ideas, and he coughed and prepared to move on to the next topic. "Not long ago, the Ministry of Defense got the news that the advance team looking for the space rift had arrived in the Piram system in the constellation Canis Major, basically determined the location of the space rift, and sent back some pictures and data, and the Ministry of Defense and the Joint Academy of Sciences analyzed the data and confirmed it without a doubt. Therefore, I have decided to send a fleet to Canis Major to assist the advance team and strive to close the rift as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary war!"
The ministers of the Imperial Council, look at me, I look at you, and after a few discussions, they returned to calm. Chancellor of the Exchequer Huang De blinked his somewhat tired eyes and said: "Your Highness, Canis Major is one of the eighty-eight constellation galaxies in the whole day, although the strength is not very strong, after all, it represents a member of the constellation galaxy alliance, and it is really inappropriate for us to send a fleet to it rashly!"
"Well, what Lord Huang said is very true, and I have also thought of this," the crown prince said with a look of old and serious: "I am going to write a letter to the Yin clan of the Canis Major royal family and the royal family of the Kamisa galaxy in the name of the heir of the empire, and explain to them the actual situation of the spatial rift, if they agree, of course it will be easy to do, if they all allow our fleet to enter the constellation Canis major, then we can only report this matter to the Galactic Alliance and the President of the Federation!" After all, this is not only related to our star field, but also affects the safety of the entire galaxy space. Do you have any objections to my idea?"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is indeed very thoughtful," Minister of State Jiang Han, who had not spoken all the time, said in a somewhat hoarse voice, since Jiang Lihua left, he has been hanging a heart all day long, what the little granddaughter has done is related to the survival of the Jiangnan family and even the entire universe, although others don't know about these things at all, Jiang Han paused and continued: "However, in order not to cause ** in the region, the old minister thinks that it is more appropriate to transfer this matter to the Federation or the Galactic Alliance at the same time!"
The crown prince nodded, "What the Minister of State said is very true. After all, my Red Sun Empire is still one level lower than the Canis Major Galaxy in terms of galaxy level, well, so let's leave this matter to you to deal with, just notify the Galactic Alliance directly, the Federation is not very calm inside, if there is no conclusive evidence or if there is really an invasion, I think it will be difficult for the Federation to make any countermeasures!"
The Imperial Council was greatly taken aback when they listened to the prince's head analyzing the possible movements of various forces in the matter of the spatial rift, they did not expect that a ten-year-old child could have such foresight, and they all set their eyes on the LaBelle who bowed his head to record.
LaBelle has always adhered to this little habit of his own, and in today's advanced technology, almost no one uses pen and paper. But LaBelle doesn't believe in the rigid electronic devices, which are convenient, but also easy to be hacked into. When LaBelle finished writing a page and put on a new one, he looked up again and saw that everyone was looking at him. Rabiel loves the feeling of being noticed, and he rightfully enjoys the gaze of others, whether it is envy or jealousy!
"Okay, that's the end of today's meeting! The specific matters will be discussed later!" the prince got up from his seat, stretched, and turned to leave. LaBelle followed, and the two men left the main hall.
After the crown prince left, the ministers left one after another, only Queen Kate sat quietly in her chair. Prince Rossley walked up to Kate's side, smiled and said, "The prince has matured a lot?"
Queen Kate looked up at her uncle slightly, Roseley looked down, and the scenery on Kate's chest was unobstructed. Kate noticed his burning gaze, and from the moment he entered the Plintys family, this uncle did not hide this desire, "Do you want him to be mature or to be naïve all the time?"
Ross didn't speak, pouted, and turned to leave.
