Chapter 1159: Undercurrent
In the top-secret communications room.
Kang Huali, who had a gloomy face, stood in front of the ultra-long-range space communication tower, and the four-dimensional stereoscopic projection outlined an image of a burly white-eyed old man wearing a golden and red robe, wearing a triple high crown, and his aura was as majestic as a god, holding a gorgeous scepter of more than two meters in his hand.
Even with the authority of the Holy Son, he was respectful when facing the old man in the video, and he did not dare to be rude in the slightest, because the other party was the Pope of the Holy See.
“…… In this way, the little princess of the Ying family is determined to choose that young man from a humble background? ”
After listening to the Holy Son's narration, the supreme ruler of the Holy See spoke slowly.
Kang Huali said respectfully: "Teacher, as far as the current situation is concerned, this is basically certain, but it is not clear whether the family leaders behind her support her idea. ”
According to the practice of the Holy See for tens of thousands of interstellar years, the Pope is the nominal teacher and guide of all canonized Sons, so these Sons must be called this when they meet the Pope, regardless of their actual relationship.
The Pope muttered slightly: "The intelligence forces of the Holy See are also particularly concerned about this, and I have also communicated with several powerful figures of the Ying family, and it is certain that there is still a big controversy in the upper echelons of the Ying family, and many elders do not agree to give such great support to that Qin Lan at this stage, after all, he is too young and weak now, and it is not yet known to what extent he can grow in the future." ”
"If he dies prematurely for some reason, it means that all the family's early investment in him will be in vain, and the gains will outweigh the losses. Even if you want to choose him, you have to wait until he reaches the Heavenly Star Realm or even the Holy Star Realm, and there is still hope to go further, and then it is not too late to think about this matter. ”
The Pope's rhetoric is actually the usual practice of many big forces and top tycoons: only geniuses who have really grown up have the value of solicitation and investment. If you want to choose those so-called potential stocks, the uncertainty of the future is too risky.
Compared with those forces in the second group or even the third group, such as the Ying family and the Holy See, which are already at the peak of the pyramid of human civilization, there are not too many genius powerhouses who want to be attached to or want to sell themselves, and the vast majority of them don't even have this opportunity at all.
With the intelligence power of the Holy See, it is not difficult to find out the causes and consequences of this matter, and among the children of the Ying family's generation, Ying Xueqing is the most outstanding, and she is a material that can be created with the approval of the ancestors of the Ying family.
As for the other clansmen, although there are some good seedlings, they are limited to the level of being a powerful elder, and there is no candidate who can really take over the authority of the family and shoulder the burden of the family.
Therefore, some time ago, according to the meaning of the Ying family, the top of the stars and the senior management of the Polestar Alliance recommended some candidates, and made a list for the current Ying family decision-makers to see, intending to select a suitable young man Junyan and Ying Xueqing to marry from them.
This Qin Lan is the candidate nominated by Mo Yuanhong, the powerful elder at the top of the stars, to be precise, a standby candidate. After all, compared to the Holy Son Cornwallis and the other members of the royal family of the Super Empire, his current conditions really don't have many bright spots.
Just an evaluation of outstanding talent, amazing potential, and strong luck is not enough to make those big people excited, and then the younger generations who can make them look at each other squarely, who is not talented, talented, and lucky?
Therefore, in the end, the list in front of the decision-making level of Ying Jia has a total of 135 shortlisted candidates, and more than 4,000 candidates are considered for standby. Each of them is a well-known figure in the camp of human civilization.
At the top of the official list are the crown princes of the super empire, the heirs of hidden wealthy families, peerless famous generals, outstanding descendants of other supreme stars, and the heads of the super chaebols.
These competitors have promised the Ying family unimaginable benefits, it can be said that as long as Ying Xueqing is willing, even if she wants to go to a super empire to be the queen of the main palace, there is no problem, as the heir to the mantle of the Supreme Star Venerable, she has this capital capriciousness.
Because there were too many suitable candidates, the senior elders of the Ying family were indecisive for a long time, and finally had to send all the lists to the ancestor of the Ying family for him to see in person.
The next details, because it involves the Supreme Star Venerable, the intelligence power of the Holy See has no way of knowing the details. I only know that it didn't take long for the camp war to break out, and Ying Xueqing came to the Supreme Command of the Alliance, Marshal Brenshire, to hang up a temporary position.
Later, this proud girl of the sky came to Qin Lan's side as a personal adjutant and confidential secretary, and she seemed to get along well.
Since this is the will of the ancestors of the Ying family, even if there are many disputes among the senior elders of the Ying family, they do not dare to oppose it openly, so they can only choose to wait and see the changes.
“…… Teacher, do you mean to say that this Qin Lan has another secret that no one knows? That's why the ancestor of the Ying family valued it so much, and even gave up all the shortlisted candidates on the list for him? ”
Kang Huali's face was a little ugly: "And I heard that the fourth princess of the Star Thunder Empire also has thoughts about him, and she does not hesitate to confront Ying Xueqing head-on, this is ...... What is the reason for this? ”
The Pope stared at him expressionlessly: "Of course, there is something else hidden in this matter, but with your authority, it is not enough to know about it at this time!" By the way, I've decided to ask Lovereya to come over and see Qin Lan! ”
"What?"
Cornwally shouted loudly, Loverea is the first saint of the Holy See, although according to tradition, the rights and responsibilities of the saint and the son are different, and they have never participated in the competition for the position of the pope, but in the power system within the Holy See, the saint is still the second great existence after the pope.
If this is the will of the Pope, then his plan to eradicate Qin Lan with the help of the power of the Holy See will inevitably be frustrated, how can this be tolerated?
What is the secret of that Qin Lan? So that he is not qualified to know the secret? There was a hideous look in Kang Huali's eyes, which was fleeting.
The Pope stared at him indifferently: "Such a person who is favored by fate deserves to belong to my Holy See, and should not be thrown into the arms of those heretics." Remember, don't do anything stupid, or no one will save you! ”
“……”
Cornwalli opened his mouth and couldn't help but ask, "What if Lovereya fails?" ”
The Pope's tone was unfazed: "Then he is the enemy that the Holy See needs to do its best to eradicate, the future Supreme Star Venerable of the human civilization camp can only be from my Holy See, and the Supreme Star Venerable who does not believe in my lord has no value to the Holy See!" ”
……
After the communication ended, Cornwally stood in place in a daze for a long time before gradually recovering his thoughts.
Only now, he has discovered that his identity and status are far less high than he imagined, and the real core secrets of the Holy See have never been opened to him at all.
For a large empire, there can be many princes, but there will always be only one emperor. In the same way, the Holy See canonizes many Sons in each generation, but there will always be only one who can ascend to the throne.
Regarding the secrets of Qin Lan's body, perhaps only a few Supreme Star Venerables can really know, the Pope, as a half-step Star Venerable and the contemporary helmsman of the Holy See, can also participate in such top secrets, but just a Holy Son, it is definitely not qualified.
……
At the same time, Qin Feng was also in contact with Mo Yuanhong, who was at the top of the stars, saying that he had successfully broken through the Star Control Realm, and asked for further enhancement of his authority within the organization.
This was obviously much beyond Mo Yuanhong's expectations, originally according to his own estimates, Qin Feng would have to wait at least a few more years before he could take this step.
After asking the reason for the matter, Mo Yuanhong was also speechless for a while, and finally said that the matter was very important, and he wanted to come over to verify it in person.
Qin Feng naturally had no objections, he had just been promoted, and he still needed a few days to recuperate in order to stabilize the powerful power of the new realm, so he would not go out immediately.
A few days later, the top of the stars' exclusive car arrived in the Frost Rock Galaxy.
