Chapter 70

There is a saying that "the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment", so when he learned that the regent had returned to the empire, his face was simply gloomy and dripping.

Shangguan Jin Hong on the side saw this, and secretly shook his head in his heart - although Errol now has the strength to match the king, the king's bearing is still insufficient. It's just that...... Naturally, the one he was more willing to sit on top than Saroman was a leader like Errol.

Therefore, seeing Errol's attitude, although he understood his feelings, Shangguan Jinhong still had to remind: "Your Majesty, Your Excellency the Regent has returned from the rescue, and we have to make a good settlement." ”

Errol's eyes flashed: "Rescue placement? Give them an urn alone? "Probably with the death of the Queen Mother Shangguan Gongyu, coupled with the thought that Saroman would not come back, and finally coupled with the surge in power during this time, Errol was not stable enough as a young man, and his temperament has become a little frivolous these days, so when he heard Shangguan Jinhong's words, he sneered and ridiculed without thinking too much.

Shangguan Jinhong's face remained unchanged, but he secretly frowned again in his heart: "Your Majesty, you can't say this in front of other people." "In the past, this is the emperor's majesty who doesn't care about the people, and if he says it bigger, it is likely to reach Saloman's ears, and he will guess what clues - for so many years, Shangguan Jin Hongke has always regarded Saroman as a thorn in the flesh, and naturally he will not underestimate Saloman's IQ. It is precisely because of this that although he is ambitious, he has never wanted to sit in that position.

Errol has no one to preach in his ear during this time, and he has long been accustomed to the fact that no one dares to refute his situation, but what he said Shangguan Jin Hong is also right, and he is just having a good time, really let him go face to face with Saloman, he can't say these words.

Therefore, he waved his hand casually and said: "This is nature, this doesn't mean that you are not an outsider." Speaking of this, Errol's eyes narrowed slightly, "Minister Shangguan, didn't you say that there will definitely be no problem this time?" Why did Saloman come back safely? The ...... who came back from the rescue."

"Your Majesty, please rest assured, although the safe return of His Excellency the Lord Regent was unexpected, it was not unexpected, after all, he was also a person who came and went freely in the universe. As for those who come back from the rescue, you don't have to worry about that, there will be no fish that slip through the net - in fact, there will be no survivors until His Excellency Lord Regent arrives on the planet U.N.02333. Shangguan Jinhong had a kind face on his face, but the words he said made people shudder.

Since Shangguan Jin Hong has done this, Errol naturally put this matter aside - although it really makes him unhappy that Saloman is still alive to return to the empire this time, but from another point of view, doesn't this give him a chance to defeat him personally?

・・・・・・

Saroman didn't know at all that he had become the final boss to be defeated by Errol's "clearance", because the victims on the Meranda needed to be appeased, and those alien situations on the U.N.02333 planet needed to be recorded and dealt with, so after he came back, he fell into a hurry, but after learning that the Queen Mother Shangguan Gongyu died, he went to the Amber Palace, because he had something in his heart, so he didn't pay too much attention to Errol missing the meeting because he was "busy with political affairs".

But he didn't want to, and not long after leaving the Amber Palace and returning to Glenway Castle, he received an insider report that someone had asked to see him.

There are many people who want to see the regent every day, and there are all kinds of people, so it is necessary to know at least a thing or two about the safety and identity of the visitors.

Therefore, when faced with this completely strange man, the butler Humphrey directly planned to let the guards take him out - no one knew that the guards actually let people in? It's time for this discipline to be put in order!

But before Humphrey could speak, the man reached out and removed the disguise from his face, which turned out to be a woman...... And a very familiar woman.

“…… Fran ...... Female officer? As one of Saloman's capable butlers, Humphrey naturally knew each other, and it was precisely because of this acquaintance that he felt surprised, because since the death of the Queen Mother, as the first confidant of the Queen Mother, His Majesty the Emperor said to the outside world that she was overly sad and prepared to pray for the Queen Mother in the second half of her life.

And as we all know, people who pray for blessings and prayers, unless there is a big event, will not come out at will.

Although the butler Humphrey had doubts in his heart, his good professionalism did not show him a single star, so he calmly asked about Fran's intentions.

Fran, however, was not as graceful and slow as she had once been with each other, and with eagerness: "Is Your Excellency Lord Regent here now?" ”

Looking for a master?

Humphrey, the butler, couldn't help but put a question mark in his heart, but before he could speak, he heard Saloman's voice ring behind him: "Lady Fran, is there something wrong with me?" ”

Seeing Saloman, Fran didn't care about greeting the butler Humphrey, and since Saroman appeared, the whole person's attention was on the other party: "Your Excellency the Regent! ”

・・・・・・

Looking at the woman who pounced directly, Tang Wuqiu, who was walking with Saloman, was unhappy - no matter who it was, he would not be in a good mood when he saw other women pounce on his sweetheart, and the other party obviously looked like he didn't have a big living person like himself in his eyes at all.

However, before Tang Wuqiu's little love could be brewed, Saloman wanted to take a step back first, and Humphrey, the housekeeper on the side, also flashed in front of Fran in time and stopped her movements: "Lady Fran." "Just kidding, with him present, how can you let other assistants pounce on the master in front of the master's mother?

Fortunately, Fran didn't really want to give Saroman a hug, and it can even be said that she didn't plan to throw herself into Saloman's arms, but was directly ready to pounce and kneel and beg, so she didn't think much about her actions when she was stopped by the housekeeper Humphrey, but her voice became more and more eager: "Please help!" ”

This tone with compulsion made Saloman's eyes cold: "You must help?" Fran: Do you have a problem that I need to solve? He focused on the word "I".

This is not because Saroman is stingy, but because of the scarlet rumors that the regent and the queen mother still retained, so that the maid who grew up with the queen mother has a lot of opinions about Saloman, and she has never been married, so she is half a master and half a child for Shangguan Gongyu's son, if there is really any difficulty, I believe that the young emperor will be happy to solve it.

At this time, she abandoned the young emperor and came to him, the regent, for help, wasn't she afraid that she would be misunderstood by Errol as a "betrayal"?

After Saroman's words, Fran's face did not show a trace of embarrassment of being ridiculed, but became angry and angry after a moment of blankness - but it was not to Saroman: "This matter, the whole country, can only be done by you." ”

There is a begging attitude, and Fran puts her posture very low at the moment.

However, Saroman was not confused by this attitude at all, but understood a little: "It has something to do with the emperor? Something to do with the death of the Queen Mother? ”

Saroman only asked two questions for less than a few seconds, but the ears of Fran made her face pale in an instant.

And Tang Wuqiu, who was still a little puzzled as to why Saloman suddenly asked such a thing, also understood when he saw the undisguised "how do you know" expression on Fran's face.

If that's the case, it's no wonder.

He said that obviously he had also seen Shangguan Gongyu before, although he was not a doctor, but some of the more popular inquiries and his understanding of the structure and texture of the human body as a Yanshi, he could be sure that Shangguan Gongyu was the queen mother without illness and disaster, except for some overthinking and too much heart, there was no small problem, it can be said that it was very nourishing, coupled with her mecha master's spiritual power, it is not a problem to live casually for another hundred years. With such a healthy body and a special doctor always paying attention to it, why did they die after they returned from the U.N.02333 planet?

Perhaps, as announced to the public, it was assassinated by terror/terror/division/son, but ...... To put it mildly, she, a queen mother, lives in the Amber Palace and is guarded by thousands of guards, so she went so quietly?

If you want to say that there is nothing greasy in it, even Tang Wuqiu doesn't believe it.

But...... Even if Tang Wuqiu thought about it again, he never thought that this would have something to do with the Young Emperor.

To know...... The mother and son have been dependent on each other for more than ten years.

・・・・・・

For Tang Wuqiu, who had a very low sense of smell, the death of the Empress Dowager involved the disbelief of the young emperor, but for Saloman, it was not something that subverted his worldview. But even so, in his opinion, this kind of thing has to happen at least after Errol is an adult......

However, what he didn't expect the most was that Shangguan Gongyu's death was actually the hand of Airol.

After all, in his former memory, Shangguan Gongyu, the queen mother, has always lived well, and Shangguan Gongyu and Errol have not only been motherly and filial piety, but also "comrades-in-arms" on the opposite line of himself.

Hearing this from Fran's mouth, if it weren't for the fact that in the desert, because the sand and gravel were scorched by the sun during the day, the air close to the sand layer rose very quickly, forming a temperature distribution of hot in the lower layer and cold in the upper layer, resulting in the phenomenon that the density of the air in the lower part was much smaller than that in the upper layer. At this time, the light of the scene in front of you will be refracted from the dense air to the less dense air, thus forming a mirage. From afar, it looks like a reflection in the water. People who have traveled long distances in the desert, hot and thirsty, often mistakenly think that they have reached the shore of a cool lake when they see a mirage, but when a gust of wind and sand sweeps through, it is still an endless desert, and this scene is just a mirage. The gravel circle is a large stone that has been broken again and again after hundreds of years of thermal expansion and contraction and natural weathering, forming a circular gravel circle on the ground, which is very similar to artificially arranged works, which are actually naturally formed. Mingsha has a place called Mingsha Mountain in Zhongwei County, Ningxia Autonomous Region, near the Yellow River, that is, in today's Shapotou place, the Academy of Sciences and the Ministry of Railways and other organs have set up a sand control station here. Behind the station is the Tengger Desert. The desert has been close to the bank of the Yellow River here, the sand is about 100 meters high, the sand slope is south and north, it is concave in the middle, there are many springs gushing out, this sand has always been the object of worship of people, it is said that every summer Duanyang Festival, men and women gather on the mountain, and then they have to roll down the hillside. Then there was a loud rumbling sound in the sand, like thunder. According to the explanation of Soviet expert Petrov, as long as the sand on the surface of the desert is fine and dry, containing most of the quartz, after being exposed to the sun, the sand particles will make a sound when they move and rub when they are blown by the wind or the movement of people and horses. Wind erosion mushrooms are first formed from wind erosion columns. The wind erosion column is mainly developed in the bedrock area with vertical joints, and after long-term wind erosion, it forms isolated columnar rocks, so it is called wind erosion column. It can stand alone or in groups. Abrasion is strong due to the high amount of sand in the air flow near the surface. If coupled with the difference in the lithology of the bedrock, the wind erosion column is often eroded into a rock with a large top and a small base, which resembles a mushroom, which is called a wind erosion mushroom. The main cause of its formation is the erosion of wind. Because the sand and gravel are scorched by the sun during the day, the air close to the sand layer rises very quickly, forming a temperature distribution of hot in the lower layer and cold in the upper layer, resulting in the phenomenon that the density of the air in the lower part is much smaller than that in the upper layer.
