Chapter 345: Audience

Ivan took three steps and two steps, and soon came to the door of his father's room where he was on business. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Summoned by the guards, Evan walked into his father's office.

Compared to the splendor of the rest of the palace, this office is a bit too austere. There is almost no decoration in the room, and the bookshelves with black borders and white bodies stretch from the floor to the ceiling, which matches the snow-white walls, but has a refreshing feeling.

Evan's father, the Emperor, was sitting at his large desk, writing something on parchment with a dipping pen. It looks like it's just an ordinary stationery, but in fact, whether it's a dip pen or parchment, it's an electronic product, and every time you dip it, you get a realistic ink simulation image. After signing a document, the emperor swiped his finger on the parchment, and the content of the paper was immediately changed. Therefore, the wide desktop is always clean and tidy, and there is no mountain of official documents.

After changing the official document, Ivan's father pulled down his reading glasses and glanced at Ivan: "Coming?" ”

Ivan bowed his head in silence.

"Wait a minute, I'll finish reading this document." As he spoke, Evan's father set his gaze on the parchment.

Even though his father didn't look at him, Evan still stood still, maintaining a deferential demeanor.

The Emperor quickly finished reviewing the document, put the parchment and dipping pen aside, and the desktop opened automatically, and a small mechanical arm reached out to take the pen and paper, put it on the table, and then returned to its original state.

"How's Lucressa?" The Emperor said to Evan, "I heard that you are out of danger? Are there any other sequelae? ”

"I can't see this for the time being." Evan replied.

"Hopefully not. Although I don't want to change your wife, I don't want a sick woman to be the mistress of our empire. ”

As he spoke, the Emperor moved his stiff back slightly. "Have you read the latest investigation report on the way here?"

Evan was stunned for a moment, and quickly covered up: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty." I haven't watched it yet. ”

The emperor raised an eyebrow. "Didn't you see it? What's wrong? ”

Evan pursed his lips. Fortunately, he had his head down, and the Emperor's seat was slightly higher than the ground, so it was unlikely that his father could detect his panic and confusion from his expression.

He couldn't say that he thought of Roy for a while in the car, but after a while, the car arrived at the gate of the palace, and he could only take out his thoughts about the queen when he first got in the car. "Her Majesty has gone to the hospital."

"What is she going to do?"

As emperors, they all pay attention to the unpredictable will of heaven. Although the current emperors of the empire are no longer the same as the emperors of ancient China, these imperial techniques are still worth learning from the top leaders of the empire. Ivan's father could barely hear the joy and sorrow of his words.

So Evan told the truth: "Nominally, I went to comfort Miss Lucresa." Others, Robert was there at the time, you can ask him. ”

"In other words, she has done something again, and from your standpoint, it is not easy to speak." The emperor understood in seconds, "That's fine, I won't force you." Let's take a look at the latest survey results. ”

As he spoke, the emperor's finger flicked lightly on the desk, and a virtual screen appeared out of thin air and flew in front of Ivan eyes.

"Otherwise, I'll go back and see again, so as not to delay your time." Evan said.

"I don't need it, it's not long anyway." The Emperor made a gesture for Ivan to open it now.

It is true that the document is not long. As soon as Evan opened it, he saw the first line of words, and his head slammed.

The Federation forces went to capture the members of the Roche group on the Giant Tree, but they were met with resistance and forced to exchange fire.

Forced firefight?!

The Giant Tree is a merchant ship, and what advantage can it take advantage of the exchange of fire with the Federation Army!

Ivan suppressed his surging emotions and calmly read the rest of the content.

There are only a few paragraphs in the back, that is, a brief introduction to the ins and outs of the operation, the battle process and the result are not clear, and it only mentions the huge losses of the federal army.

And what about the Giant Tree?

Ivan turned off the virtual screen and suddenly found that the emperor was looking at him.

Evan felt a pang in his heart, and hurriedly suppressed that emotion even deeper, and said to the emperor with a 100% businesslike attitude: "Your Majesty, I'm done reading." Is that all? ”

"That's all for now." Ivan's father didn't seem to notice anything, and said lightly, "Aren't you curious about the final result?" ”

"Curious." Evan said dryly, "The report only mentions the huge losses of the Federation Army, but it does not mention the results of the Giant Tree. But we only want the people on the Giant Tree, but this is not clearly written on it. ”

The Emperor smiled. "The efficiency of the Federation. This is here to cry about how hard you work. It's just that I'm a little curious about how a mere merchant ship can defeat the regular army of the Federation. ”

"Didn't you say that someone from the Luo family was ambushed there and caught them off guard?" Evan recalled what he had just seen.

The emperor was noncommittal.

Evan called up the virtual screen again and watched it again. In order not to let his shortness of breath attract his father's attention, he simply held his breath. "It doesn't say who did this mysterious surprise attack. But the federal side seems to have tacitly tacitly been the Luo family who set up a trap there for them to drill. ”

"What do you think?" The Emperor asked Evan.

Ivan furrowed his eyebrows. "Now the intelligence is not enough, only this report, I don't want to make judgments. But there are a lot of oddities about it. According to the report, the location where the battle took place, and the nearest Union garrison, even if they set off immediately after the poisoning, could not reach this position at the time of the battle. Why, would they have known that something great was going to happen before they knew the prophets?

"And this mysterious fleet is also strange. Could it be that in this world, the crystal ball that can check the future is already a big commodity, so that they can also anticipate what will happen in advance, and wait for the rabbit to wait? And then use the most important personnel of his family as bait to knock out a group of regular troops of the Federation?

"The Luo family is a businessman, what good is this for them?"

"The analysis makes sense. However, as for why it arrived at the battlefield so quickly, the Federation Army gave an explanation, saying that the fleet happened to be doing routine patrols of the route. The Emperor said.

Ivan picked the corners of his mouth.

This fleet size doesn't look like a routine patrol.

"Probably they learned that the Luo family was going to take that route, so they took precautions to increase the number of people." Evan said, "Your Majesty, what are we going to do next?" ”

"That's what I want to ask you." Ivan's father said to him. (To be continued.) )
