421 Grand Duke of the Empire!

"Oh! Where's my Hero Knight? ”

The stereoscopic projection of the old emperor, with a few floating projection balls, shuttled through Yang Wei and Daphne's bedroom, and the maids and machine guards bowed their heads or knelt on one knee.

The old emperor was apparently well-dressed today, wearing a purple robe, a blue undershirt, and a top hat inlaid with gold patterns and several types of dangerous precious metals on his head.

Yang Wei had 'woken up' at this moment, lying on the bed with a pale face.

"Your Majesty......"

He shouted hoarsely, trying to struggle to sit up, but was hypocritically 'pinned' by the projection of the old emperor.

The projection balls around them began to snap at a rapid pace.

"Hanton, don't salute."

The old emperor used his most gentle tone and said to Yang Wei:

"You are the hero who saved hundreds of billions of people in the empire, and you are the greatest hero of the empire, and I am tormented all the time to learn that your body is in pain because of the fight against the Great Queen.

"Are you okay?"

"Your Majesty, I'm fine," Yang Wei sighed weakly, "Maybe there is some loss in combat power, after my body recovers, the energy that can be carried will be reduced by five to ten percent." ”

"You're still invincible, Hanton."

The old emperor said softly, with a little emotion in his eyes, and a little joy that did not look like a fake.

"It would be nice if you were okay," the old emperor said, "what reward do you want?" Hanton? I can satisfy you, and besides, we are doing a national live broadcast, and my promise to you will never be invalidated. ”

Yang Wei: ......

This old man is also very treacherous.

said 'live broadcast', and then took the initiative to ask him what he wanted, and directly put Boss Yang up.

If Yang Wei takes into account his 'hero' personality and talks about power and wealth at this moment, it is easy for the people who are 'strict with others and lenient with themselves' to feel bad.

Fortunately, Boss Yang is no longer a simple young man on the Kigrove research ship.

Yang Wei first coughed weakly twice, then sighed slowly and leisurely, and said in a low voice:

"Your Majesty, if I refuse your reward, it will be disrespectful to you.

"But I really don't need anything more.

"For the world of this dimension, I have fulfilled my mission as a transformation of the ancient gods, and my only wish is that the empire will treat my homeland well.

"In the confrontation with the Great Queen, I saw a whole new world...... Although I paid an extremely high price for it.

"Your Majesty, what I need to do now is to heal my injuries and wait for the time to come, and keep making myself better. Then, I want to take our Sherman genes and honor to the high-dimensional world, learn from the high-dimensional civilization, understand the true meaning of life and the mystery of time and space, continue to fight against the evil Zerg there, and will represent the great Sherman Empire and you to conquer more high-dimensional Zerg. ”

The old emperor's expression was slightly touched.

He stared at Yang Wei, his eyes were complicated and emotional.

Obviously, the 'reserve of words' prepared by the old emperor does not contain content to deal with current topics.

But fortunately, although the old emperor is old, he has not yet reached the level of pulling pants, coughing, and pulling his hips.

He sighed:

"Hanton, the realm you are involved in is already an area that the Empire has never touched, I am really proud and proud of you, and I feel sincerely happy that the high-dimensional civilization can always trust the Empire and let the Imperial soldiers become their warriors.

"But these are two different things.

"Before you entered the high-dimensional world, you were still a courtier, a soldier, a citizen, and a nobleman of the Sherman Empire, and you deserved to be rewarded and fully supported by the Empire.

"Wherever you go in the future, the people there should pave your way with flowers, greet you with cheers, and show you the highest reverence with their respectful eyes and tedious etiquette.

"It's not about power, it's about wealth.

"This is the respect you deserve."

Yang Wei sighed softly in his heart, this old emperor really has a hand.

This is, I want to use a little 'honor guard-style reward' to send him away?

"Your Majesty......"

Yang Wei said: "I don't want to be specialized, let alone detach from the people, my roots are in the Sherman Empire, if I really do what you say, it will definitely make me extremely uncomfortable." ”

"Oh, Hanton, then you say," said the old emperor with a smile.

His patience was clearly running out.

"What kind of reward do you want?"

"Your Majesty, I don't want a reward."

Yang Wei Zhengse said:

"If Your Majesty is going to reward me, then please erect two virtual tombstones, one with the names of all the victims of the natural disaster, and one with the names of the Imperial soldiers who died heroically fighting the insect tide.

"Perhaps, I am more prominent among them because I have gained more power.

"But actually, I'm the same as them."

The old emperor nodded with a smile: "Our ideas simply coincide, these two monuments are already in production, I named them, one is sighing, the other is admiration." ”

"Then I have nothing more to ask for," Yang Wei closed his eyes and gasped weakly, "Your Majesty, thank you for your kindness." ”

Daphne, standing behind the screen, pondered.

The confrontation between the two old foxes, the old and the young, made her ...... Benefit a lot.

The old emperor continued to laugh and said:

"Even if you keep refusing, Hanton and the Empire must show enough to show the gratitude of the people to you.

"We are based on the government of every people, the reason why we maintain the imperial system is to make the entire system, such a large territory operate efficiently, this insect tide is also a test of the major political systems in the galaxy, we are the least affected by the disaster, and the highest disaster relief efficiency after the insect tide, this is our superiority.

"But the basis of all this is that we have to be absolutely fair.

"If your reward is light and thin, the people will not agree, and I will not agree!

"By the way, Hanton, when I connected with you, the military department was discussing the establishment of an honorary commander-in-chief position for you......"

Yang Wei opened his eyes and looked a little excited: "This is not good, Your Majesty, this is absolutely not good." ”

"Oh? Why not? ”

The old emperor looked innocent: "I don't know much about military affairs, are there any rules and restrictions on this?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty," Yang Wei said with a straight face, "There has never been such a young commander in the Imperial Military Department, and even if he is an honorary commander, he has broken the rules that have lasted for tens of thousands of years. ”

The old emperor smiled and said, "Aren't the rules just for breaking?" It's also important to be updated. ”

Yang Wei continued:

"Your Majesty, you are right, but the Imperial Military Department is related to all aspects of the army, and the commander must not only have merit, but also have the ability to command ten thousand ships, possess all kinds of outstanding qualities, and most importantly, the precipitation of time.

"If I break this rule, the impact on the military will be multifaceted.

"Armies, defenses, ships and soldiers are the foundation of civilization standing in the galaxy, and this must not be disturbed.

"To put it very realistically, I don't know how to command, Your Majesty, I am just a vanguard, and I am willing to continue to be a vanguard."

"That's right," the old emperor nodded, "what you said really needs to be considered, but your military exploits must be commended, maybe I can ask them to draw up a plan for promotion, for example, to promote you to lieutenant general immediately, and when you arrive at some point in the future, to be promoted to general and marshal, what do you think?" ”

Yang Wei smiled and shook his head, looking at the emperor like an old man next door: "It's good for you to call the shots, but I really shouldn't be promoted too quickly." ”

"It's just your military exploits, Hanton."

The old emperor was also a little tired.

How to reward Yang Wei is related to all aspects, but for him, this is a good opportunity.

Before the insect tide and when the insect tide was carried out, it had nothing to do with him, the emperor, and if he didn't brush his face now, how would the history books be written in the future? Just to write 'The Great Insect Tide Occurred During the Reign of a Certain Emperor'?

He has to play a key role in impressing the public.

So, the old emperor continued to be patient, and said mildly:

"Hanton, don't refuse, I've already decided, I'll grant you the title of Grand Duke of the Empire."

Boss Yang looked puzzled: "Your Majesty, this ......"

"Hey, I can't say no."

The old emperor said softly:

"The merits you have made for the Empire are not exaggerated even if you give you a royal title, but the Empire has no precedent for this, and the voices within the Elders' House are fierce.

"The national policy of the empire was to reduce and control the number of nobles and prevent them from oppressing the common people.

"Therefore, in my emperor, the highest title that can be given to you is the Grand Duke of the Empire, and you can be above ordinary dukes, regardless of hereditary and honor, and have the right to control the nobles of the Empire.

"When you go to the high-dimensional world, it's no problem, your wish and your concern will be the wish of the empire and the concern of the empire in the future.

"In addition, Hanton, the Cult of the Imperial Development God will also grant you the honor of 'Bishop of Radiance'......"

The old emperor talked endlessly, and Yang Wei listened with 'moved' eyes.

Of course, Boss Yang knew that the words of the old emperor had to be analyzed from another angle.

The so-called above ordinary dukes refers to princes, princes, and princesses who are lower than the surname Sherman;

There is no distinction between hereditary and reputation, in fact, it cannot be hereditary, but only gives Yang Wei a special title;

Having the right to control the imperial nobles is more like a joke, Yang Wei can now deal with any imperial nobles outside the Sherman family, both openly and secretly.

However, Yang Wei thought about it, he had already gotten enough.

The youngest lieutenant general in the history of the empire, not an honorary title, but a lieutenant general who really has the right to command the army, the status is equal to that before Thomas's promotion.

The only grand duke in the empire at this stage, the non-imperial nobles of the empire, all took the initiative to salute when they saw him.

And, this 'Glow Bishop'.

The empire develops the cult of God's nest.

This reward was the most inconspicuous in the list given by the emperor, but it made Yang Wei care the most.

Yang Wei appropriately shirked a few words, and then borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, expressing gratitude and satisfaction to His Majesty the Emperor's reward.

This drama for the people and nobles has finally come to an end.

A reminder came from the old emperor's side: "Your Majesty, the live broadcast has been suspended." ”

The old guy's face instantly fell, and he frowned and looked at Yang Wei: "Hanton, are you really injured?" ”

"Ahem, ahem," Yang Wei smiled bitterly, "Your Majesty, all the women who fought with me were killed in battle." ”

"Oh, okay."

His Majesty the Emperor looked sorry and patted Yang Wei's arm with a projection: "Well done, my knight chief." ”

Yang Wei continued to remain weak: "Your Majesty, are there many people who maliciously slander me in your ears?" ”

"They are jealous of you, and afraid of you," the Emperor said with a smile, "You have absolutely crushing personal combat power, and you have unrivaled prestige, and this prestige connects the people of the Empire, the army, and even those minor nobles, and it seems more appropriate for you to be the emperor." ”

"Your Majesty!"

Yang Wei struggled to sit up: "You! ”

"Hey, I'm kidding you, don't be nervous."

The Emperor sighed, as if in deep thought, and suddenly asked, "Hanton, how much do you know about the defense system of the entire territory of the empire?" ”

"It's just a little bit of a thing, not a lot of it."

"And how much do you know about my ancestor, Levy Sherman?"

Teacher Yang Wei explained: "Limited to the imperial history books, as well as the "Biography of the Emperor", Your Majesty. ”

"Oh, okay."

The old emperor groaned a few times, as if he was thinking about something.

Yang Wei asked, "Your Majesty, what's wrong?" ”

"I'm thinking, how to restrain the Imperial Guard System," the old emperor said indifferently, "According to the secret information I have obtained, this system has already shown signs of getting out of control, we can't let her mess around, once the Imperial Guard System gets out of control, it will be a very vicious event far higher than the harm of this insect tide, the second day disaster has just passed, you don't want the third day disaster to come directly, right?" ”

Yang Wei was surprised: "Are you saying that the Emperor Guard system may become a third natural disaster?" ”

"Yes, Hanton, there's a good chance it happens."

The old emperor nodded calmly, and said:

"However, this matter is very complicated, and it can't be explained in a few words, but fortunately, we already have an alternative, the Imperial Guard System 2.0, and you, the ancient god warrior who can't match the regular combat power.

"Hanton, what do you think will happen if I want Guardian 2 to replace Guardian 1?"

Yang Wei: ......

Felt?

Can this be decided simply by intuition?

Yang Wei really thought that the empire had seen through Li's plan and found that Li was quietly breaking free. - This information was provided by the old man Twilight of the Robots.

However, Yang Wei has now figured it out.

The old emperor was humiliated one after another on Li's side, and now he can't stand it anymore.

For a long time, the praise of the maids and ministers around him, as well as the adjectives 'great', 'wise', and 'stupid', made the old emperor accustomed to the superiority of standing at the top of the galaxy.

This Emperor's attack, for the old emperor, not only greatly damaged his self-esteem, but also directly denied his control over the empire.

If he had been completely enslaved by Levi Sherman, what would he have done in response to this situation?

There may be a fake cockpit in the Emperor Star Mecha, so that the current Emperor can stay in it and get a sense of participation in some historical events.

Li didn't do that.

This made Yang Wei seriously suspicious, and he deliberately provoked and ridiculed this old man.

"Your Majesty," Yang Wei said, "this plan is a bit risky, but it's not impossible to try. ”

"Right?"

The old emperor smiled and said, "If you can support me, it will be better Hanton." The only force I can trust and rely on now is you, and your strength is far greater than a battle cluster. ”

Yang Wei immediately said: "If it is for your business, I am willing to use all my strength, like a sniper queen, to complete the task you assigned." ”

"Very well," said the old emperor, "first take good care of your injuries, those rewards and promotions will be done soon, I will send two finance ministers later, whatever your territory wants, just mention it to them." ”

Yang Wei's thoughts turned sharply in his heart.

"Your Majesty, I have one more thing to tell you here."

"Just say it."

"The Faya people also gave me a task to find a human," Yang Wei said, "After I recover from my injuries, I will go on a long trip, you see......"

"The Fayians confessed?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"You can do this first, set off as soon as possible, and let the military headquarters transfer if you need ships," the old emperor smiled, "I'm also very curious about the Faya civilization, of course, let me try to carry out a 99% mortality rate transformation experiment, I still don't have the courage." ”

Yang Wei nodded with a smile.

The old emperor got up and waved his hand, and the projection was turned off at the other end.

Yang Wei and Devine glanced at each other, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Daphne asked, "How does it feel?" ”

"Tired," Yang Wei squeezed his eyes and couldn't help yawning, "Your father is very dissatisfied with the Imperial Guard system, and this needs to be vigilant." ”

"Why?"

"He can't play the Imperial Guard."

"Uh," Daphne said, a little confused.

Yang Wei lay there and sorted out his thoughts.

Military ranks, titles, and titles of Bishop of Radiance, this wave is in hand, and Saka Star can also get a lot of resources;

What's more, there is no risk of damage to his basic reputation among the population.

Well, that's enough, it's already the 'limit' benefit that can be obtained at the moment.

Next......

Half a month later, the Sherman Empire sent an official diplomatic letter to the fifth power in the galaxy, the Yada Democracy, and the Grand Duke of the Empire, the White Ghost Hanton, will officially visit the country.

The formation of hundreds of ships left the Saka outer spaceport and completed the synchronous jump in the gravitational equilibrium zone.

The fifth forerunner should also reveal the true face of Lushan.
