Whether or not the ministers understood His Majesty the Emperor's thoughts, the first hereditary prince of the Starlight Empire was born!

Of course, compared with the six great families in the past, although the current prince has a much larger fief, some important power treatments are still greatly restricted or even canceled!

For example, the Prince's private army is limited to 600,000 warships and 20 Ability Legions. Moreover, without the permission of the emperor, the prince's private army must not leave the feudal state at will.

Moreover, the central government still has a series of important powers such as administrative jurisdiction, judicial power, and supervision power over the feudal state! In addition to the financial revenue, the prince himself is not able to directly intervene in the affairs of the feudal country! It can't be compared with the original six great families at all!

Such an arrangement, which has been legislated by the House of Lords, has since become customized! Even if there is a new prince in the future, it will be handled accordingly. The reason for this, of course, is to prevent the emergence of separatist forces that threaten the stability of the central government in the country! Although as long as Yun Haoyu is here, he is not worried that such a thing will happen, but he can't leave such a hidden danger for future generations!

Moreover, at the canonization ceremony the next day, Yun Haoyu also announced in public that as long as anyone can make enough contributions to the empire in the future, whether it is the royal family or officials with foreign surnames, they will be eligible to be crowned kings!

The promise made by the emperor himself naturally aroused great repercussions in the government and the opposition, and now that the situation in the Xinghai is turbulent, the empire may launch a new round of expansion at any time, and there are many opportunities for meritorious service! Therefore, many senior generals who think they are qualified to fight are secretly full of energy!

There are already many people who are privately speculating about who the next hereditary prince of the empire is most likely! ――

At night, in the queen's bedchamber.

Xiao Muhan in front of the dresser gently untied her bun, and let the long silky hair that was black and shiny, enough to shine a shadow, spread out on her bulging chest, and her smooth and white jade face and blown-breakable skin were covered with a shallow, warm and soft halo like jade against the backdrop of the palace lamp, which looked particularly attractive!

"My sister is getting more and more beautiful!" Yun Haoyu on the bed dropped the book in his hand, turned sideways to enjoy her beautiful demeanor when applying makeup, and praised sincerely.

She looked away and gave him a charming smile: "Are you still willing to call me sister?" People think you've forgotten what you did in the first place! ”

"How is that possible? Do you think I'm like one of those unkind people? Yun Haoyu smiled slightly.

Xiao Muhan got up, walked to the side of the bed with elegant steps, hugged him and kissed him gently, and said in a manly voice: "It's okay if it's not!" The world says that men are fickle, and my sister doesn't want you to become the kind of cold-hearted king who only knows how to deceive and calculates interests one day! ”

Yun Haoyu gently stroked her silky and plump legs, and asked gently, "Are you still unhappy about that incident?" ”

Xiao Muhan hesitated for a moment and said, "That's not it, my sister just thinks it...... Your decision may have been a bit hasty! ”

"Look at your breath, you know you have a pimple in your heart!" Yun Haoyu tightened her waist and explained with a smile:

"Ming Rui is my younger brother, who grew up under one roof, and now he is the prime minister of the empire, which can be regarded as my right-hand man! Today's empire has one-third of the star seas and more than 7,000 star fields, can't it afford to give a prince? Besides, the royal family is thin, Siyun is not yet an adult, and I am away all the year round, so some things have to be prepared for a rainy day! ”

Xiao Muhan sighed and said: "This sister can understand, but what you do is not so easy for those courtiers to understand and accept it!" ”

"Speaking of which, it's useless to blame my sister for not being able to give birth to a few more children for you!"

"Don't think so!" Yun Haoyu hurriedly said, "It's not easy for high-level superpowers to give birth to heirs, this is a problem that the Star Sea has not been able to solve for hundreds of years!" It's not your responsibility! ”

"But it's not a way to go on like this," she said worriedly, "You are already a god-level powerhouse now, and you are only afraid that you will be promoted in the future. ”

Yun Haoyu smiled slightly bitterly: "This is the price of gaining strength, the will of heaven is like this, it cannot be changed by man!" What can you and I do? ”

High-level supernatural beings above the Holy Rank generally have few children, and a considerable number of them have not even left a single offspring in their lifetime! Just like his grandfather Yun Tianyun, he had hundreds of women before and after, but in the end, he only gave birth to Yun Yuxi's child. Yun Hongchang also has a lot of women, and in the end he only has two children.

As for himself, if he hadn't had that fate with Xiao Muhan when his strength was still weak, he gave birth to Siyun, and now the empire would be facing the embarrassing situation of having no successor!

Xiao Muhan hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "A few days ago, a group of nobles led by Yun Tianyun jointly wrote a letter requesting the restoration of the draft system of the court of the previous dynasty, and they have ...... Agreed! ”

Yun Haoyu stared at her for a while, and said slowly: "It seems that the situation of the Xiao family in the imperial capital is really a little troublesome!" How else would you have made such a decision? ”

"yes!" She smiled bitterly and said, "Although you are taken care of by the emperor, as the saying goes: Hades is easy to mess with, but ghosts are difficult!" As an outsider, it is impossible not to be excluded by local forces! Those upper-level people won't make a move, but those aristocratic officials below are openly and secretly blocking you, and it's impossible for people to go to the teachers and mobilize the public to investigate some trivial things, right? ”

With such considerations, Yun Haoyu naturally understood in his heart that in order to gain the kindness and acceptance of the local nobles of the empire, even the queen had to make certain concessions for the sake of the family.

"Nothing, I can understand your difficulties!" He said lightly, "So it's up to them to do this, but even if it's a draft, as long as I don't let go, they don't expect to send the daughter of the family to this palace!" I don't think these people dare to coerce me, the emperor, right? ”

Xiao Muhan saw that he was not angry, so he tactfully persuaded: "People are not only doing this for the sake of the family, but also to solve the problem of the heir of the empire!" As long as there are more women in this palace, maybe they can ......"

Yun Haoyu frowned and said, "Then you don't have to pick it in a noble family, right?" Isn't it the same to choose from the people? ”

From a man's point of view, he doesn't dislike women, and he doesn't exclude the number of women around him. However, if this causes the hands of the aristocratic families to stretch out too long and interfere with the stability of the court, it will be more than worth the loss!

"Why don't you understand," she sighed, "although these nobles don't hold much power at the moment, they still have considerable influence in the upper echelons of the empire, and this part of the people has an incredible amount of wealth and resources, and they can also help the great cause of the empire!" ”

"Now, because of some of your past practices, they are not very confident about you, the emperor, if you can agree to the draft and marry more noble women, so that they can rest assured, and fully support you from now on, right?"

"I also know this," Yun Haoyu said a little depressedly, "but I always feel that although the political marriage is useless, it is basically unreliable at a critical moment!" After marrying a daughter, I thought I could sit back and relax, such an idiot head of the family should not exist, right? ”

Xiao Muhan shook his head and said: "You can't say that, although marriage is just a formality, it is the most obvious and intuitive way to form an alliance, and it is also a signal that you can win the trust of the nobles!" Only then will they be truly reassured! ”

"Is there no better solution than marriage?" He had a bit of a headache.

"Yes, but in order to win the trust of those nobles, it means that you have to pay more substantial benefits to them, are you willing?" Xiao Muhan asked with a smile.

Nonsense, of course, is absolutely impossible!

"If you really choose some more women to come in, the pattern of this harem will completely change!" Yun Haoyu sighed, "They may not all understand things like you, once the harem is restless because of something, what should you do?" ”

Now all the women are accompanying him to conquer the sea of stars, all the way from the flames of war, and that affection is by no means comparable to others! As for the conduct of those pampered aristocratic women, he really didn't expect too much!

Xiao Muhan swore solemnly: "It's okay, my sister will definitely take care of this harem for you!" ”

Looking at her serious expression, Yun Haoyu couldn't help but want to laugh: "You're in such a hurry to find a woman for me, aren't you jealous, sister?" I remember you didn't seem to be so generous before, right? ”

"Would you like to think I?" Xiao Muhan said with some annoyance, "When people were still on the Twilight Cloud Star, they never thought that you would have today's achievements!" If you knew that you would have so many women, you should have found a place where no one was to lock you up and raise you, so that others could make up their minds! ”

Speaking of this, she couldn't help but laugh too.

Yun Haoyu was a little moved in his heart, hugged her tightly and said:

"Don't worry! I'm not going to be the kind of profit animal you said I was talking about! No matter what, I will never forget your affection! ”

"Well, it's good that you understand!" Xiao Muhan said gently, "It's not early, let's rest!" ”

His hand ran over her waist and gently pulled the silk strap, and the tulle nightgown slipped silently, revealing a seductive carcass with undulating curves and bumps......

At the next day's court meeting, the envoys of the Zhanying royal court, who had already arrived in the imperial capital, formally requested to meet the emperor in person, and submitted their credentials, and at the same time requested in-depth and detailed talks on certain economic and trade issues of common concern to the two countries, which was agreed by Yun Haoyu.

The three top leaders of the Cullinan organization came to visit at the same time to discuss comprehensive cooperation, and naturally they were also received by Yun Haoyu with the highest standard!

There are also a bunch of envoys from the Miriam civilization, the Yanwei Tribal Alliance, the Rockefeller Empire, the Yuanshuo Organization, and so on, all of which have arrived one after another in the next few days!
