Volume 1 Chapter 103 Rogue Luo Baguio
January 20, 2506. First Star Field, Shendu (Beijing), Alpha-1, A01ยท A1, Imperial Capital.
The capital of the Holy Empire, known as the Imperial Capital.
Legend has it that this was not the case with its original name, but I don't know when it was no longer used by anyone. "Imperial Capital" has been called for a long time, and it has become the new name here.
Legend has it that this is not the origin of civilization in the Holy Empire, but the first place to be conquered by the Holy Empire. I'm Alpha, I'm Omega.
But to be precise, the Holy Empire does not have a civilizational origin in the strict sense of the word.
Before the pre-imperial era, the Holy Empire was nothing more than an alliance, like the current Federation, a confederate organization that came together under the pressure of survival. In order to survive in the early interstellar society like a dark forest, huddle together for warmth.
History was moving forward, and the loose confederation system also gave the Holy Empire of that time a mere appearance. Not to mention the strong enemy, there is constant internal friction. As a result, the Holy Empire, which had also been among the great powers at that time, was in a state of great powers, was in rapid decline.
The devotion of the great powers, the internal conflicts, and everything ended in the hands of that legendary being, the knight King Arthur.
He abandoned his name as a human being and resolved to become the will of the nation. In the name of Arthur, a historical legend, the Confederation system was ended and the centralization was reorganized. Externally, it should be applied to fight and vigorously promote reform internally. The "Sacred Round Table System" established by it has been used to this day.
The "Imperial Knighthood" laid by it has become the cornerstone of the spirit of the Holy Empire.
The core values of the empire, such as selflessness, loyalty, dedication, sacrifice, and fraternity, have become the national soul of the civilization of the Holy Empire. This is definitely not a dictatorial ruler's fooling of the people, but a top-down practice.
It was only after that that the empire truly became a civilization. And the moment when the knight King Arthur established a new empire, the legend is that it was on this planet. In later generations, it was called the first planet conquered by the Empire.
But these are just legends, and the things of the former empire are too far back. The real history can only be traced back to the end of the pre-imperial era, the time of Frederick the Great.
And even the initiator of the old imperial era is covered with a strong color of myth and legend.
"Frederick the Great......
The General Department of the Heavy Industry Army, Zuo Mingfei looked at the bright moon outside through the high window of the prison. Zuo Mingfei muttered the honorific title of this legendary monarch, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The founder of the empire, the first monarch of the first dynasty of the former empire, the knight king Arthur. The last emperor of the Second Dynasty, Frederick the Great, who ushered in the New Imperial Era.
If it is said that in the entire history of the empire, three god-level monarchs will be selected. Then the first one should be these two, but the third one can't be chosen anyway. No emperor's exploits can be compared with these two, and even the reigning emperor himself knows that it is difficult to compare with them.
If it is said that Arthur, the Knight King, is too mythical and too illusory, it seems unreal. Then Frederick the Great is the only emperor who can be called a god.
No matter what Zuo Mingfei thought, he felt that only Frederick the Great could save the empire if he returned to the world. Or a god comparable to Frederick the Great.
"Hey~ Who has not died in life since ancient times, and he has left Dan to take care of his sweat."
Frederick is such a peerless god, the empire is fortunate enough to give birth to one, and it will consume tens of millions of years of national fortune. One more, one more...... From King Arthur to Frederick, it seems, is exactly the time from Frederick to the present. Could it be that there really is a god from heaven?
"Hey, uncle~ what are you doing? One moment where you are going to die, and the other time it will be cloudy and sunny~"
The sudden voice interrupted Zuo Mingfei's thoughts. Zuo Mingfei turned around and looked, but he didn't see a single figure left and right. But the previous voice was definitely not an auditory hallucination, and Zuo Mingfei immediately turned on his spiritual vision.
Then I saw a young girl lying on the bed in the corner of the prison opposite. The girl shuddered slightly, as if sensing that her eyes were locked on her. Said in surprise.
"Huh? Can you see me? โ
Zuo Mingfei smiled slightly bitterly and said, "You are a little trick like this, you don't hide your head but not your tail." Just look a little and you'll find out. โ
The girl is exposed to optical fraud, smiles silly, and passes the test cutely. Sitting up from the bed, he said in an almost voice.
"Uncle, what did you do to get arrested?"
Zuo Mingfei didn't really want to talk to the girl, but then he immediately thought about what kind of place this place was, and he also became a little interested.
"I don't say anything, do you want to ask someone? What about you, what is your name, what did you do to be arrested in this prison? โ
The girl thought about it, and it seemed to be the truth.
"Miss Ben is the first beautiful girl in Shendu Beijing, the thief Luo Baguio."
"Thief?"
As if she had been stepped on the anchor of her tail, Luo Baguio jumped up instantly and protested loudly: "Hey, it's rude." Rogues! It's a thief! โ
Zuo Mingfei smiled, of course he knew that ordinary thieves would not be eligible to be imprisoned in Zhao Prison.
"So Miss Rogue Rogue, I wonder what you stole from you?"
"It's nothing, I just want to use the old witch's seal."
Old witch? Zuo Mingfei was stunned for a moment, the old witch who was enough to be imprisoned in Zhao Prison meant ......
"You mean Empress Wu!"
"Hehe~" Luo Baguio looked angry, as if she was waiting for a compliment.
Seeing the little girl's expression, Zuo Mingfei knew that he had probably guessed correctly. Since people are referring to the Empress Wu, then the seal is...... Heirloom jade seal!
Although the heirloom jade seal was only used as a collection by the imperial family and had no practical significance, it was after all something placed in the emperor's bedroom.
"Did you get it?"
"Hey, hey. No...... I was just about to make a move, but before I could touch the palace, I was caught. I said I was just here to steal something, but they insisted that I intended to assassinate me, and I was locked up here. โ
......
Zuo Mingfei was very speechless, and he began to regret why he wanted to communicate with this mentally retarded person. This little girl is obviously not bright. Either you are tired of being alive and want to touch the porcelain empire.
"Hey, uncle, I've said it all. You're going to be rude! โ
Zuo Mingfei had no intention of playing a scoundrel with a girl, so he replied.
"I'm Zuo Mingfei, the General Department of the Army of the Ministry of Heavy Industry."
"! O feudal official! You're such a big official, you can't steal things to make a living, right? The old witch didn't pay you a salary? Have you been deducted from your military salary? โ
Zuo Mingfei glared at the little girl, and his eyes hurt when he pierced Luo Biyao's body. Frightened, Luo Baguio hurriedly behaved and asked, "Then what did you do?" โ
"I privately mobilized troops and blockaded the entire province of Chongye."
"! Fierce man! Is this to rebel? โ
Zuo Mingfei shook his head, and after denying it, he didn't explain. Luo Biyao couldn't hold back, and then talked about the topic.
"I said you should rebel too. Don't chill, just that old witch, eight (no) is very good~ It's really that witch, I am you who can't bear it for a day. โ
Zuo Mingfei's eyes grew cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Do you know what you're talking about? The people of the empire are always loyal to the country and will never commit treason. โ
"Just because you don't commit treason doesn't mean you can't rebel. Besides, you say that it is Jingnan, and there is a young lord who is the emperor. In fact, everyone in Shendu knows that you don't even have this puppet. Sitting on the main hall is the witch. โ
Zuo Mingfei wanted to refute, but he couldn't say anything for a long time.
"You know, what the people say. ' In ancient times, there were raccoon cats for princes, and now there are foxes as emperors. 'The jade-faced witch, the younger she lives, she says it is a fox spirit. Isn't it a shame for you big men to be called around by a sassy fox? โ
"Enough!"
Zuo Mingfei waved his hand violently, turned his back, looked out the window, and ignored the thief again. She doesn't understand anything! Zuo Mingfei didn't have the heart to explain anything to her.
What do you know? The empire can't be messed up. Don't say it's a fox, it's just a pig, and you can only recognize it. The royal family is dead!
Dead? No!
A strong expectation rose in Zuo Mingfei's heart, the princess must still be alive! She is the only hope.
At that moment, the sound of steel footsteps was heard. A group of costumed knights walked in, embellished with an icon of the wind on their chests. One of the largest and oldest knights in the Empire, the Wind Knights.
"Lord Zuo, get ready to be judged."
