Chapter 40: Marriage
Claudia's skills are already at the master level among ordinary people, but for Li Anping, this punch is no different from a child's play.
He didn't even dodge, just let Claudia slam his fist into the head. After this punch was hit, Li Anping's body didn't move, just like a breeze blowing on his face.
Instead, Claudia's face turned pale, and she felt a wave of sharp pain in her right hand, as if she had smashed her fist on a marble.
Li Anping asked, "Is it enough to vent?" ”
Claudia sighed and said, "What are you reading?" ”
"Some medical papers." Li Anping didn't lift his head from beginning to end. If it weren't for the hint of appreciation in his eyes when he first saw Claudia, Claudia would probably have wondered if her appearance had become ugly.
Finding that Claudia had not spoken, Li Anping reminded: "In ten minutes, I will leave here." Whatever you want to say, it's only ten minutes at most. ”
Claudia frowned, hesitated for a long time, and there was a hint of struggle in her eyes. She looked at Li Anping's indifferent look, sighed in her mouth, and said, "You are right, the biggest purpose of being sent by my father is to hope to marry you."
Hades, Zhu Rong, and Blood Demon are all dead, and the White Dwarf has taken refuge in the Star Alliance. Now that the Ice Castle no longer has a fifth-level ability, the Yanlong Pioneer is only a name, and in the unconventional war, it has completely lost the upper hand.
We urgently need a strong reinforcement. Otherwise, without the need for others to call, the imbalance of the four major nobles in the country alone is enough to lead to civil strife. ”
Claudia glanced at Li Anping, seeing that the other party was unmoved, she bit her lip, and then said: "Once we get married, Great Xia will also have the strong support of our Ice Castle, and we can also join your Pan-Continental Alliance." ”
Claudia said that. Apparently the internal tilting of the ice castle has reached a serious level. Because Ivan II belonged to one of the four nobles, there were not many people with awakened abilities in this generation, and the other three nobles had no restrictions at all when the Yanlong Vanguard was almost wiped out.
Coupled with the Battle of Morocco, Ivan II was almost disgraced, and his approval ratings fell sharply in both the army and the government. Plus the other three nobles united and took advantage of the situation to put pressure on Ivan II.
At present, the control of Ivan II over the entire ice castle has dropped to the lowest level ever. There is even already the possibility of a division of the entire empire.
However, Claudia went on to say a lot about the benefits of the marriage between the two, but Li Anping was still silent.
She looked at the other party without saying a word. He said ruthlessly: "Are you worried that after I marry you, the amount of power you have under you will be unbalanced?"
If you're willing to marry me, I don't mind sharing it with others as a husband.
You can choose the women of your nine great royal families of Great Xia at the same time, as well as the female abilities of the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow. But before you choose, you have to show me.
In this way, it is also good for you to control the amount of power in your hands, right? And as a man, don't you want to open a harem? ”
Li Anping glanced at Claudia unexpectedly, and then saw the other party's calm look. I was relieved. Although the other party looks the same age as an ordinary girl, after all, she grew up in the royal family of Ice Castle, and her views on marriage are naturally different from ordinary women.
He casually asked, "You should inherit the throne, right?" ”
"That's right, so you're nominally the Prince of our Ice Castle." Claudia looked at Li Anping's still lack of interest. Suddenly, he said, "Are you worried that I am pampered and unable to fulfill my responsibilities as a wife?" ”
A blush suddenly appeared on her face: "Actually...... I'm ...... as an adult Already studied in the royal palace...... Learned about couples. ”
After saying this, Claudia's face was already flushed, she was still young and not sophisticated enough after all. I talked about my marriage like that before. And just a disguise. The first time I talked about this kind of thing, I couldn't help but be shy.
Li Anping did not answer, in fact, Claudia persuaded for so long. He did begin to think about marriage.
His power was so great that all of his men feared it. Especially the nine royal families and those nobles, on the one hand, they obeyed Li Anping's orders, and on the other hand, they also secretly feared Li Anping and guarded Li Anping.
This cannot be avoided until this society is overhauled.
But if it is really married, it will be with the nine royal families of Great Xia, and even many members of the Pan-Continental Alliance in the future, such as Baiyue and Ice Castle. Obviously, that does have a stabilizing effect.
Li Anping thought about it, anyway, marriage can be just a formality. However, it can play a role in stabilizing the situation and resolving contradictions when the alliance has just been established and is at its most turbulent.
Li Anping thought about it, and finally his tone was a little loose: "If you get married, it's not completely impossible to consider." ”
"Really?" Claudia looked at Li Anping with a look of surprise, and the next second she seemed to realize that she was too unreserved, and immediately put away her surprised expression and asked, "Then let's keep everything simple and prepare immediately." I'm going to send a message to the country. As he spoke, he took out his phone.
Li Anping said: "What's the hurry. Even if I'm going to get married, I'm definitely not going to be the only one looking for you. It won't be so casual. "After all, Li Anping's every move now will affect the international situation, and if he wants to get married, it will be a major event in the entire Eastern Continent.
Claudia's face was grim: "It's me who is too abrupt." ”
So Li Anping waved his hand into the distance, and saw a staff member waiting in the distance trotting all the way over, bowing and saying, "My lord, do you have any orders?" ”
Li Anping said casually: "Tell Wang Chong that I can't think about marriage matters." Let them show me the charter assuming I agree. ”
Claudia reminded on the side: "And me." ”
Li Anping added impatiently: "Tell Wang Chong that the assumption will also count him." ”
Then I saw the staff member leave with a shocked face. Claudia heard Li Anping's tone loosen at this time, but she lived up to her previous excitement, only feeling that her heart was empty, and there seemed to be something missing.
Li Anping looked at Claudia, who was a little depressed on the side, and said, "Don't think too much, I'm just thinking about it." And marriage is such a thing, at most, it is a symptom rather than a root cause.
At least until the matter of Dongyang is over, I will not make a decision.
Even if it's really married, it's just a name, I won't care about your private life, we still live our own lives. ”
However, Li Anping felt in his heart that marrying Claudia did give him an excellent excuse to meddle in the affairs of the Ice Castle.
Claudia also seemed to relax at this time, she sat next to Li Anping, and said softly: "Then I'll get along with you more during this time, whether it's marriage or not, as the future queen of Ice Castle, it's not bad for me to get to know each other with you." ”
Li Anping went with her. Although Claudia has the appearance of captivating the country and the city, coupled with the identity of the holy princess, it is coveted by countless men. But in his eyes, she is just a girl, an optional partner for marriage.
He lowered his head and looked at the paper in his hand again, and during this period of study, he felt that he had a certain foundation. Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, we will almost be able to start some physical modification tests.
However, the six layers behind the Hell diagram correspond to the six major systems. There is no precedence. There's no problem trying either one first.
The respiratory system, digestive system, endocrine system, circulatory system, nervous system, and locomotor system are related to all aspects of the human body, but it is difficult and easy to transform.
The two major systems of respiration and digestion complement each other and can lay an excellent foundation for the subsequent construction.
Li Anping hesitated for a while, but finally decided to start with the respiratory system first.
After all, breathing is the beginning of human life and the basic condition for survival. And according to the knowledge in the Hell Diagram, the transformation of the respiratory system is simpler than that of the other five systems. Also suitable as a system for the first retrofit.
