318 The Admonition of the Law of the Goddess
I don't know what's wrong, Yang Luo felt irritated when he saw this beautiful princess.
He stared at Daphne, his brow furrowed unconsciously.
Devany used court etiquette to show her excellent manners, and the sense of surprise in her eyes was quickly hidden, and she smiled at Yang Luo:
"Am I presumptuous? I just thought that yesterday's chat might have been a little unpleasant, and today we can change the atmosphere and have a good chat about the future and life. ”
Her big eyes blinked gently, and that kind of natural charm made Yang Luo's mood recover a little inexplicably.
Yang Luo asked a little incredulously: "You can accept my harsh conditions?" ”
"Even if you can nominally get the promise of a man, you still have to face these facts that are likely to happen after marriage, isn't this the norm for the marriage of the imperial aristocracy?"
Daphne lifted the hem of her skirt and stepped into the room gracefully, and said softly:
"Of course, I will also try not to let you know about me, in order to protect your fragile and sensitive self-esteem."
Fought back.
Yang Luo laughed.
Outside the door, Hanxiang's timid voice suddenly became a little louder:
"Sister, sister, are there a lot of reporters down there!"
Hanyin said: "Don't talk nonsense! What kind of reporters are they, they are just some gossip media of the emperor, and they don't have a press card, so they are good at hyping up hot spots and promoting gossip!",
Yang Luo's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a little more annoyance in his eyes.
Gossip media blocking the door?
Devany called?
Do you want them to be in love and immediately become the news breaking point of the empire?
can only say that the daughter of the emperor's family is really not weak in scheming.
Seeing that Yang Luo's expression became more and more cold and hard, Princess Devany reacted very quickly.
She smiled: "Yesterday's hot search has nothing to do with me, but today I have to show my father a result, believe me, it's also good for you." ”
Yang Luo suddenly took half a step forward, and the momentum of fighting in the swarm showed a little.
Daphne subconsciously stepped back a few centimeters.
"I haven't promised you yet!"
"You don't have any other options."
Devany quickly calmed down:
"You should be aware of this before you step into the sordid political circles of the Empire."
"Now, you are angry with me at my father's orders, is this the demeanor of Lord White Ghost?"
Yang Luo almost burst into foul language.
He paced back and forth with his left hand on his waist, taking several deep breaths in succession.
"Sit," Yang Luo pointed to the corner.
"Thank you," said Daphne, bowing her head and walking over the slumping maids to sit gracefully on the edge of the single sofa.
Yang Luo asked, "You came to me today for a public date?" ”
Devany said slowly, "You can understand that it would be great if I could take you out of the hotel." ”
"Haven't you thought about the negative effects of this?"
Yang Luo's brain was spinning rapidly, and he immediately found the counterattack point:
"I haven't broken up with Catherine yet, and my relationship with Catherine has been a cause for concern before."
"Your behavior is the intervention of a third party, and you deliberately hype, and the reputation of the price will be greatly affected."
"Actually, it doesn't matter, I have analyzed the character of Captain Catherine, and she will consider it for you, so she chooses to be silent."
Devany whispered:
"Our story has to have a beginning, Lord Earl, and it is not perfect to start in this way, but it is always good."
"Public opinion can be guided, and the imperial people's awe of the royal family will also make them more jealous when they speak, as long as we direct public opinion to the fact that the princess's marriage is the empire's reward for heroes, there will be a win-win situation."
"Do you resist me so much because it makes you feel ashamed that I walk around you?"
Yang Luo scolded: "I am resisting you using this way of catching ducks on the shelves!" Can't you even wait a few days? ”
Devany pursed her lips slightly, her expression slightly aggrieved when she lowered her head.
"I'm convinced!"
Yang Luo threw himself into the bathroom, and the sound of slamming the door showed the mania in his heart at the moment.
As soon as the door closed, Yang Luo's expression returned to calm.
He looked at himself in the mirror, frowning and thinking.
To be precise, it should be reflective.
Since yesterday, he has been disturbed by Director Ino's words, and he has been led by the nose since then.
It was Director Eno who chose Daphne, and Daphne was also a victim of this incident, but there was no way, the space that Yang Luo could find to struggle was all on her.
This huge Sherman family is a hundred times more difficult to deal with than the old emperor himself.
Now, the reporters are waiting downstairs.
The old emperor in the palace should have gotten the news through the tentacle organization a long time ago, and was waiting to watch a good show.
The director of Eno who hides in the research institute and is the closest to the Faya civilization in the Sherman Empire is the real imperial boss-level existence.
This is really, there is no door in the sky, and there is no way to go down to the earth.
What else can he do now?
Yang Luo turned on the communicator and wanted to send a message to Catherine, explaining that he might have to play on the scene next, but when his finger touched Catherine's avatar, there was a slight struggle in his heart.
Reason told him that Catherine could not be involved in this incident.
Catherine's imprint on her mind is problematic, and she should now be in a state of calm on the outside and radical on the inside.
She is hating the imperial power and the aristocracy, and she is thinking about how to make the empire change its system to liberate hundreds of billions of imperial people, especially the tens of billions of slaves.
Catherine can't be set on fire now.
The power she has at the moment is just a candle in the wind, which may be blown out by the wind at any time, and excessive burning will only dissipate itself prematurely.
Yang Luo leaned on the edge of the sink and looked at himself in the mirror.
This is the face of Hanton.
But he seemed to see the ghost named Yang standing quietly behind him.
Politics is the art of compromise. ’
'The cultivation of the Sherman family allows you to get everything you want in the shortest possible time. ’
'They know the game of Faya, and the Empire has your lifeblood. ’
Yang Luo's eyes narrowed.
The true rulers of the empire opened their hands to him, to domesticate him, to imprison him, and to make him a loyal dog of the royal family...... What else could he do? Fly straight out of the palm of their hand?
Well? Fly?
Yang Luo was suddenly stunned, and turned his head to look at the small window of the bathroom.
Inside, Daphne breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued to sit in a high-spirited position, her legs together slanted, and the cloth folding fan in her hand swayed gently.
She turned her head to look at the door: "Two, won't you come in?" ”
Hanyin and Hanxiang bowed their heads and walked in, Hanxiang had an expression of admitting punishment, and Hanyin was smiling.
Devany did not hold them accountable for their actions in exposing their schemes, and said softly:
"Can you help them adjust their position? Such a posture is really rude. ”
"Yes, Your Highness."
Hanyin and Hanxiang glanced at each other, and hurriedly lowered their heads to work.
Fortunately, these maids are all slim, and the combat power of Hanyin and Hanxiang is also excellent at the level of ordinary people, and they will not be tired.
Devany was thinking quietly, too.
The gossip reporters she arranged had blocked all the access to the hotel, including their staff access and the back door of the kitchen.
As long as their relationship is hyped, she will be able to take the initiative and get some attention from her father's side.
Suddenly, the faint light outside the window attracted Hanyin's attention, and Hanyin turned her head to look over.
Hanxiang and Devany both turned their heads to look at the area, and the expressions of the three of them were all sluggish and stunned to varying degrees.
Yang Luo was wrapped in a red ball of light, holding his arms and bare feet, and quickly flew towards the sky of the Emperor Star.
Daphne's open mouth didn't close for a long time.
"Can he really fly?"
Hanyin squinted and smiled: "Your Highness, don't you know?" The Earl faced a formation composed of dozens of noble private armies, one person with a lightsaber, and directly killed the battleship group. ”
Devany stared intently at Yang Luo's back, even though there was only a red dot left.
"He's the deterrent itself."
Devany whispered, her calm gaze a little more lively.
Half a galactic time later.
In the empty cockpit of a small transport ship, Yang Luo sat on a chair and waited with his arms crossed to wait for the spacecraft to leave the shield of the Emperor Star.
He borrowed the transport ship from the defense forces, and he had a new pair of military boots on his feet.
Yang Luo can't leave Emperor Star now.
He just said that he was in a depressed mood, wanted to watch the stars in synchronous orbit and distracted, and would be back soon, and the transport ship itself did not have the ability to jump.
Buzz, buzz!
Yang Luo's watch vibrated slightly, and an inverted trapezoidal halo popped up on it, and a small figure drilled out.
"Chirp! Today is your little assistant cat maid! Meow"
Ritsu was wearing a maid outfit with a pair of fluffy pink paws, and two 'not fake' cat ears on top of her head, and she was shaking her tail slightly flirtatiously at the moment, looking at Yang Luo with a grin.
Frivolity is frivolous, and when he saw the law, Yang immediately felt a lot more at ease.
"How's Catherine?"
"Captain Catherine is on a mission near the borders of the Empire, it's an ordinary mission, there's nothing wrong with it."
"Boss, don't worry, we sent two Dark Star cruisers to pick up nearby!"
Ritsu grinned and said:
"This is mainly to beware of the empire because of the marriage between you and the princess, for fear that they will suddenly attack Captain Catherine, so I didn't ask you for instructions, and arranged the security work."
Yang Luo smiled: "It's a good job to marry the princess, what do you think?" ”
"Does the boss want to listen to objective evaluations, or does he want to listen to subjective emotional output?"
"Objective evaluation."
"This is an inevitable situation between the Empire and you, but I didn't expect it to come so quickly," Ritsu wondered, "What did you experience in the Emperor Ascension Laboratory?" ”
Yang Luo succinctly recounted his conversation with Director Eno.
Ritsu sighed:
"Actually, this is reasonable, the Sherman family behind the emperor is the master of the empire, and Levy's descendants are divided into elite and degenerate, and the elite have extremely high personal qualities."
"Actually," Yang Luo sighed, "I don't know why I'm so irritable, a political marriage is the best thing for me, so I can even lie down and start the game next." ”
"You misunderstood the boss, and now the marriage is not a good thing for you."
Ritsu shook his head slightly:
"You feel irritability because you directly feel the oppression of this powerful empire, and your freedom is seriously compromised."
"They didn't give you any options, and they stabbed you in the soft underbelly with precision."
"Right now, you only have two options, submit to them, be assimilated by them, or become material in the Ascension Lab after a few years."
"If I'm right, Princess Devany is a beautiful virgin who is a beautiful virgin who is trying to confuse your perception of oppression in this way of showing sincerity to you."
Yang Luo wondered: "Isn't this a good thing? ”
"We can deduce how different things will develop after you choose two paths."
Ritsu whispered:
"If you choose to marry Princess Daphne, you will receive a rich fief, and then you and Princess Daphne will inevitably start a love affair that will attract the attention of the whole people, in order to divert the conflict between the noble class and the commoner class."
"In the past year, you have used a knife against the aristocracy, not only to make the commoners feel happy, but also to directly expose the corruption and greed of the nobles to the commoners, and now there are great complaints everywhere."
"This love affair will be elevated by a grand wedding, and you and the princess will be the face of the royal family."
"In the same way, you will become a supernumerary member of the royal family, you will gain fame, knighthood, become the Grand Duke of the Empire, stand by the side of His Majesty the Emperor, and look down at this ancient empire."
Yang nodded: "Isn't this okay?" ”
The law begins a series of rhetorical questions:
"When the Emperor asks you to raise your butcher's knife against the common people, what do you choose?"
6 When Captain Catherine goes to the opposite side of the Empire, will you erase her existence? This is an event with a high probability of happening. ”
"When the royal family asks you to hand over ancient technology, can you refuse to give your last hole card?"
"When you are stripped of your cards, you lose all chance of rebelling against the Empire."
Yang Luo fell silent.
"Boss, how did Levi Sherman know that he had lost his test qualification?" ”
Yang Luo said: "He lost his sense with the mechanical Twilight, and he couldn't turn on the intelligent machine Twilight, and then smashed the original building. ”
"Levy Sherman fell into the abyss of desire woven by human society with power, superiority, and class oppression, but ignored the meaning of the existence of civilization itself, which he pursued in the first place. ”
"What is the meaning of civilization itself?"
"It is life that gives civilization brilliance, and it is not civilization that gives life superiority."
Yang Luo was stunned.
Lu said slowly: "Then we will focus on the follow-up placement of the home planet that you are most concerned about. ”
Yang Luo lowered his head and thought about it, signaling to Lu to slow down.
"Boss, if you become the Grand Duke of the Empire in the form of a marriage, the freedom you can gain will be very weak."
"When your home planet passes the test, of course, that's the ideal situation."
"At that time, the empire will use these eight billion people as bargaining chips, make you bow your head and kneel, squeeze your last freedom, and you will completely lose the confidence to rebel against the Sherman family and become a slave of the Sherman family."
Ritsu groaned a few times and continued:
"Assuming that there is a limit to your lifespan, what will happen to the humans on your home planet when you die? Is this any different from just integrating them into the empire? It's just that you're delaying for a while. ”
Yang Luo raised his hand and rubbed his forehead: "It's true, population is also a resource, and the empire will not let go of these cheap laborers." ”
"Even, the Empire has been using you to intimidate the nobles, and when you leave, the anger of the nobles will be transferred to your home planet, which is the worst and most likely situation. ”
Yang Luo's expression became more and more solemn.
"If you insist on that group of cells and refuse to marry the Shermans, the Shermans will be forced to keep you active for a while because of your reputation among the people and the army."
"During this time, they will try to discredit you, slander you, and make you lose your popular base, but we will not sit idly by, and we can continue to strengthen your influence among the people."
"The exploits of the War Zerg Clan and the Slaughter Nobles are untouchable by them."
"During this period, if your home planet passes the greenhouse civilization assessment, we have other opportunities."
"Other opportunities?"
"You've been looking out at the Empire, but you've forgotten to look behind you."
Ritsu raised his head slightly and said with a smile:
"The Falling Wind Empire is about to complete the Four-Nation Alliance and substantially expand its territory."
"The Dark Star No. 3 base has been opened, the Faya experimental project we undertook has been smoothly promoted, and the close connection with the Faya people may be found in the Faya civilization in the future, so that your home planet civilization can integrate into the Falling Wind, and the population of your home planet can just fill the gap in the development of the Falling Wind. ,”
"The civilization level of the Dark Star Ontology has broken through Level 3, and the number of stable mechanical thinking bodies we currently have has exceeded one million."
"Everything is developing according to the steps you have set, and you can't dislike us too much because our own power is developing too slowly."
"We are your greatest confidence."
Yang Luo smiled: "You mean, I'm going to bring down the empire and let Luofeng rise?" ”
"It's a bit difficult," Ritsu said, "but you're not unprepared to fight the Sherman family in the future, Ritsu thinks. ”
"Don't float, we're just little shrimp now."
Yang Luo leaned back in his chair, crossed Erlang's legs, and quietly looked out the window.
He had fully understood the meaning of the law.
She is right, if she accepts this marriage, it will be good in the short term, and there will be no benefit in the long run.
There is no degree of freedom, just a simple puppet, that is not the Grand Duke of the Empire he wants.
The result of chaining yourself as a dog is that others no longer see you as a human being.
Directly abandon the empire fundamentals?
What about the power structure at the beginning of Faya's game?
Although the Faians will revise the internal structure of the game, the more influence they have on human civilization in the galaxy, the more they can help the home planet in the game.
Therefore, it is not yet possible to completely break with the Empire.
The princess marriage in front of you is a problem, but it is not unsolvable.
Use the power you build to protect your home planet.
The Fayacs, yes, the Fayians are the key.
What Ino fears them the most is actually the Fayans, because the closer they get to the Fayya civilization, the more they can feel the insignificance of the empire.
This is something you can take advantage of.
He still has a lot of cards in his hand, there is no need to put himself in the quagmire of marriage, the public opinion base of the empire cannot be lost, and he has to find a way to make the Sherman family a rat trap.
Use the power you build to protect your home planet!
Two fires appeared in Yang Luo's eyes, and the thoughts in his heart turned sharply.
After chatting with Ritsu, he suddenly felt much more relaxed, and he had already found a third option between the two extreme choices given to him by Director Ino.
Retreat.
