Planet 6 of the Tianhua Galaxy.

This is the famous scientific and technological capital of the Empire, and there are tens of thousands of national laboratories, institutions of higher learning, and research centers on the entire planet, involving almost all the current research fields of mankind! The Imperial Academy of Sciences is also located here. Experimental bases in certain fields, large-scale scientific research projects are well-known throughout the Star Sea World! More than forty percent of the academicians of the empire are concentrated here.

The sixth planet is still a veritable think tank of the empire, with more than sixty percent of the supercomputing centers and more than fifty percent of the high-level wise men also concentrated here! Since the founding of the empire, almost half of the major inventions and technological progress have been inseparable from this place! For thousands of years, there have been countless scientific giants, technical geniuses, and top-level wise men born from here! It can be said that the Empire has been able to keep up with other powers in the field of science and technology, and most of it is due to the prosperity of the Sixth Planet!

More than a year ago, Zhong Mingrui's brothers and sisters sent their parents here to seek medical treatment, and they also took a fancy to the first-class medical technology in the empire. It's a pity that as an ordinary person who has only undergone second-level genetic optimization, his basic physical fitness is really poor, and even if he hires the best doctor, uses the best equipment and medicine, he can't save his father's life in the end.

Located in the middle of the continent, Maple Leaf City is the location of the famous Wise Scholar Academy in the imperial capital, and the alma mater of the great wise man Feng Lanxi of the Empire. Zhong Mingrui's brother and sister also studied here.

At this time, in the national cemetery near the suburbs, surrounded by green hills and lush greenery, in a cemetery, several young men and girls are paying their respects in front of a tombstone.

On the white marble stele, the top is inlaid with a three-dimensional photo of his father before his death, and the bottom is etched with the name, the date of birth and death, and the introduction of his life.

Yun Haoyu looked at the vivid image in a daze, recalling the bits and pieces of life together back then, and his heart was heavy. Since six years ago, both biological parents disappeared under the sea, and he was taken home by his adoptive parents to live with his younger siblings.

As the eldest son in the family, in the future, the family will have to rely on him to support! Fortunately, he is already in power and has a great future, so it is not a problem to protect his relatives.

"Brother, don't be sad!" The plain white sister came over and gently grabbed his arm: "If Dad has a spirit in the sky, he will be very pleased to see your achievements now, brother!" ”

"I'm fine!" He said softly, but the scene in front of him was a little blurry.

The mother on the side looked at his appearance and said gently: "Okay, I've seen my father now!" Let's go back! After being apart for so long, you should be close too! ”

Zhong Mingrui also said: "Hmm! Brother, let's go back! It's your first time in the imperial capital, and you haven't been to many places yet, so I'll take you to have a good look! ”

Luo Qiyue, who was standing on the side, looked at the appearance of their family, with a deep loneliness in her eyes.

Yun Haoyu turned his head to look at her, stretched out his hand understandingly, held her slender hand and shook it vigorously, and then said, "Let's go!" It's hard to come back, and it's time to rest for the next few days! ”

Several people finally calmed down and left the cemetery.

I got on the flying car and didn't have long to go. Yun Haoyu suddenly asked his mother: "I haven't always understood, well, why is there a problem in the laboratory?" At the beginning, the military spokesman's explanation was vague, and although I doubted it, I couldn't help it! ”

"Mom, you should know what the situation is when you were there?"

My mother hesitated for a moment and said, "The military ordered us to sign a confidentiality agreement, and in some cases, I'm afraid it will be ......."

"Is there a problem?" Looking at her expression, Yun Haoyu suddenly understood that things were definitely not as simple as the military had publicly explained.

"Chi Yue, do you know what happened in the first place?" He turned to ask her as she was driving.

"Of course, my brother and I were on the battleship at that time......" she recounted the day.

It was only then that he realized that the thing in his hand had fallen into his hands in such a way! Several major civilizations each sent their elites, in order to be the mysterious base under the sea, not wanting all parties to fight for life and death, but in the end it was cheaper for him!

"That guy Song Jingfeng was so greedy that he left the experimental base and ran to chase the master of the Zhanying Clan, and then he simply returned to Dusk Cloud Star, so much so that he missed the best rescue time!" She concluded, "If we had arrived earlier, maybe the tragedy wouldn't have happened!" ”

"Song Jingfeng?" He repeated the name slowly, "I've seen him a few times on the front line, but I don't have much of an impression!" I can't believe that he caused this! It seems that I have to go to him another day to catch up! ”

Sensing the chill in his words, his mother said a little nervously: "Don't be impulsive, people are big people in the empire, you ......"

"No matter how old he is, he can't compare to your child now!" Luo Qiyue said with a smile, "Don't forget what kind of identity Yun Haoyu is now, he is an ordinary saint rank, and he can't be compared at all!" ”

Yun Haoyu smiled, indeed, with his current status, it really shouldn't be too easy to clean up an ordinary holy order! Even if the other party has the backing of the family, he doesn't care much! With the emperor on his side, no matter how he organizes these families, he doesn't have to worry about the consequences!

At this moment, a message came from the portable light brain. After connecting, the image of his adjutant, Yang Wentao, appeared in front of him.

"What's the matter?" He asked.

Yang Wentao saluted and said, "Your Excellency, here's a few invitations from you, inviting you to the banquet!" ”

"Invitation? Didn't I ask you to push it off for me? Don't forget that I'm on vacation right now! "He was a little upset.

"I know! But the origin of these characters is too big! Can't push it off at all! Yang Wentao smiled bitterly, "Moreover, I suggest that you better go, otherwise, there will be more unnecessary trouble in the future!" ”

"What kind of great man is it?" He asked suspiciously, "Could it be those ...... of the royal family?" ”

Yang Wentao nodded: "That's right, His Royal Highness Fang Yanren, the second prince of His Majesty, His Royal Highness Fang Chengyuan, the sixth prince, and His Majesty's nephew, His Royal Highness Fang Yukun!" None of these people are fuel-efficient lamps! What do you say? ”

Yun Haoyu's face changed: "What are they asking me for?" Doesn't seem like I've ever had anything to do with them? ”

"I don't know, these Tianhuang nobles have been particularly active recently!" Yang Wentao rubbed his temples and said with some difficulty: "I went around visiting the heads of the major departments of the empire, and I also wantonly recruited those middle and senior officers who came back from the front line!" You're the new first-rank general, the second-in-command of the Abilities Legion, but you're the one they care about! ”

Luo Qiyue said lightly: "I know what it is for!" My brother told me a few days ago that recently a group of people in the court are planning to ask His Majesty to consider the candidate for the crown prince! These big names who are qualified to compete, of course, have to make a move! ”

"So they move around, make friends with real power figures on both the military and political sides, and build momentum for themselves?" Yun Haoyu asked, "But I remember, the abilities of those two princes are not very good?" His Royal Highness Fang Yukun is outstandingly capable, but he is His Majesty's nephew, and his relationship is far away, so it doesn't seem to be very likely! It's hard to see for a while! ”

"Moreover, Your Majesty is now in the prime of spring and autumn, and there is no disease! Don't think about this for now? Who would have done this? ”

Among Fang Xuling's heirs, there are now four princes and three princesses. Among them, the second prince and the sixth prince have some talents and ambitions. The other two have average qualifications, and the power of the mother clan is not strong enough, so they have been out early. Among the three princesses, the eldest princess has married to a foreign country, the third princess Fang Yuqing is in charge of the Imperial Security Department, and the fifth princess Fang Mengyan has a loose heart and has no intention of political affairs.

And Fang Yukun's father is the son-in-law of the former emperor, the younger brother of His Majesty's mother, according to the imperial inheritance system, the position of the crown prince, his nephew is also qualified to fight! There is no shortage of such precedents in history.

However, the abilities of the two princes are not particularly outstanding, nor are they born to the queen, and in the war that has just ended, these two have not had a particularly outstanding performance! It may not be accepted by the government and the opposition. Only Duke Fang Yukun has outstanding military achievements, and his current popularity is the highest!

Of course, the third princess Fang Yuqing's ability and combat exploits are not under Fang Yukun, just because of her bloodline, she is not recognized by the royal family, otherwise she will have a chance.

Luo Qiyue frowned and said: "How this wind blew, no one knows the reason, but, according to our internal speculation, it may be that His Majesty has his own thoughts, so ......"

"What do you mean?" Surprised, he asked, "Is it at the behest of His Majesty himself?" But he didn't have to do it now! Or did he have something else in mind? Want to use this for other purposes? ”

"Maybe! How can outsiders measure the emperor's thoughts? In short, General, you'd better not wade into these troubled waters! Yang Wentao said cautiously.

"Hmmm! I think so too! He nodded in agreement, "No matter who Your Majesty wants, it's Your Majesty's family matter, and we'd better not get involved!" Anyway, no matter which position is in place in the end, don't we all have to swear allegiance? ”

"As for these people's posts, they have all been pushed! Let's just say that I am not feeling well and recuperate at home! It's inconvenient to go out! ”

It's just that Yun Haoyu doesn't know that neutrality also requires strength! For a person with a shallow foundation like him, even if he is in power, some things cannot be decided by him. What's more, he didn't understand the emperor's mind at all!

Not only him, but even the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty didn't know at this time that their emperor was playing a game of chess, a big game of chess! It is enough to completely reshuffle the power system of the entire empire!
