The Way of the Empress

Zhuo Yang showed his face, and under the guidance of Chang Diqing, he got to know many upper-level figures in the aristocratic circle.

Zhuo Yang felt that the purpose of his trip had almost been achieved, so he didn't rush the rest, so he took a red wine glass and stood in the corner silently looking at the luxurious banquet scene, planning to find an excuse later leave.

"Hi, nice to meet you, my respected Crown Princess, Your Majesty the future Empress." I didn't want to, but at this moment someone suddenly stopped Zhuo Yang.

The other party is a sentry, and he is also a very handsome, high-ranking and personable sentry.

Compared with him, Lin Xuan and his like are simply shameful things.

When Zhuo Yang saw him, a complex expression flashed in his eyes just right, and he calmed down very quickly, pretending to be relaxed: "Oh~ it's you, Your Excellency the Secretary-General, what a coincidence."

The half-brother of Gordon Corey, the well-known guide Lant Corey, the secretary-general of Dixing, climbed up from the identity of an illegitimate child, defeated the first-born child of the Corey family, and became the next heir of the Corey family. Man of the hour.

He is also a very persistent and affectionate suitor of Chang Diqing.

"What's the matter? Secretary-General Gordon." Zhuo Yang looked at it with a slight sarcasm, his face was not showing any emotion, but the audible tone of the two sounded like a bitterly abandoned husband.

Seeing him like this, Gordon unconsciously raised the corners of his lips: "Your Highness, the Crown Princess, I was on a business trip during your wedding earlier, so it is a great pity that I missed the chance to attend your wedding."

"Is it a pity, or is it deliberate... I think you know it in your heart, Your Excellency the Secretary-General." Zhuo Yang said sarcastically.

Gordon kept smiling and asked, "Can we take a step to talk, Your Highness."

Zhuo Yang stared at him for a while, but didn't say yes or no.

As Chang Diqing's loyal and affectionate suitor, Gorden personally helped arrange the dinner tonight. Gorden was so familiar with the layout and terrain here that he couldn't be more familiar with it. It was in an empty, quiet, undisturbed room.

Gordon used his mecha spirit net to put a ban on this room to prevent anyone from entering, and even called Zhuo Yang affectionately: "Little Yang."

He and Zhuo Yang, an illegitimate sentinel of the Cory family, and an unfavored guide with low mental power born to the lunatic former daughter-in-law of the Zhuo family.

The two seem to have no intersection, but in fact they have known each other for a long time...even to the point where they trust each other the most and understand each other best...Well, Gorden thinks.

"I'm married now, I think you should call me Your Highness the Crown Princess." Zhuo Yang said with a cold glance at him, seemingly full of resentment.

Gorden is a full-fledged ambitious man. When Zhuo Yang first met Gorden, he immediately saw that the illegitimate son of the Corey family with excellent abilities was a figure crawling out of the mud just like himself.

And Gordon, too—

He also saw at a glance that Zhuo Yang was the same person as him, a person who would do anything to achieve his goals and keep climbing up, so even if Zhuo Yang's mental power was low, he still took a fancy to Zhuo Yang's scheming and beauty, and decided that When the other party grows up, he will be a chess piece that will help him a lot. He deliberately approached Zhuo Yang when he was suffering, suffering, and wronged, and gave Zhuo Yang considerable care and "warmth", and wanted Zhuo Yang to love him. on yourself.

At the beginning, Zhuo Yang was puzzled by the sudden approach of the great secretary-general, but after a while he figured out the key to it, and cooperated with him to deduce that the other party was himself. The only sunshine in his life, he has a deep affection for the other party, and even regards the other party as the only appearance.

Taking advantage of the other party's self-willed mentality of thinking that he has accepted him as a loyal pawn, he used the other party to do a lot of things secretly.

Zhuo Yang, the chess piece that was sent to him by himself, is very handy to use.

Especially, after the opponent is becoming more and more powerful...

Therefore, Zhuo Yang has never cut off the contact with the other party, but has been hanging on like this, using the other party... never revealing the truth and maintaining the weird harmony between them.

"Xiao Yang, are you still angry with me? I told you, all of this is just a stopgap measure. I always have you in my heart..." Gordon played a helpless lover very well.

It's a pity that his rank is still lower than Zhuo Yang's.

Zhuo Yang stared at him coldly, as if extremely angry: "With me? With me, when I told you that Zhuo Yu escaped marriage and my family wanted me to marry the crown prince instead of him, why didn't you come to me? My family proposed to me...and why did they even persuade me to marry the crown prince?"

"I think you love me, it's just talk. You just treat me as a pawn." He didn't even look at Gordon.

Gorden looked at the scheming Zhuo Yang for his pale appearance, and couldn't help but feel more satisfied. He patted him on the shoulder and coaxed: "I'm also doing this for our long-term future. Your family has a marriage contract with the royal family." , Zhuo Yu ran away, if you don’t stand up, if we elope again, we will be the target of public criticism. I know you and I are the same people... Are you willing to let us wander around the world, poor and poor, and spend our lives incognito? ?"

"...I'm poor, so what if I stay anonymous? I only know that as long as I'm with the one I love, I'll be happy no matter what." Zhuo Yang acted like he was moved by his persuasion, but his mouth was still stiff.

Gordon looked at him, but smiled: "Come on, Zhuo Yang's other stupid, white and naive guide said this. I believe it, but you say it, I don't believe it. Don't you want to be rich and famous, don't you want to stand on the edge of life?" Is it the pinnacle of the world? We are the same people, it is not easy for me to come to this step, and you to come to this step. Is it possible that you are willing to give up all for such a reason?"

"So what if you don't give up for such a reason? Remain rich and rich, and stand at the pinnacle of life... My life has been ruined at this point." Zhuo Yang looked at him and said.

Gordon smiled and said, "Who said your life was ruined? Baby, marrying the crown prince and marrying the crown prince...is a great opportunity for us."

"...The crown prince's body has become like that, how can I still have..." Zhuo Yang only spoke halfway, but the meaning behind his words was already clear.

Even if he was acting, he couldn't say a word about Moody's wrong and curse.

Gordon looked at him meaningfully, and suddenly asked an irrelevant question: "You and the crown prince...do you have any?"

"Is there anything?" Zhuo Yang was impatient.

Gordon smiled: "...you know, baby."

"What do you think?" Zhuo Yang looked at him coldly, but asked back.

Gordon gently sniffed the air around the two of them, and said, "The smell of your guide element has not changed, but I heard that the crown prince's spiritual power has been completely abolished, and he can't combine with your spirit. So, do you have any?" ..."

"Guess?" Zhuo Yang smiled while looking at him with his lips curled up.

Looking at this person's disgusting appearance, Zhuo Yang seemed to see another self...and he would never be able to fall in love with a person with the same soul as himself.

Because, that's disgusting.

Therefore, he also felt that it was impossible for Gordon to fall in love with him.

The relationship between them is nothing more than use and counter-use.

"I guess, judging by your expression, you probably don't have it, baby. If you have, you shouldn't have this expression..." Gordon felt in a good mood, and there was a little teasing in his words: "So, it seems that there are rumors outside Come out, the rumors about the crown prince being inhumane after being seriously injured are probably true."

Although, at the beginning, I approached Zhuo Yang because I wanted him to be my pawn, but such a stunning beauty who likes me, just let go out with other sentinels... But it still makes Gorden uncomfortable...

So Gordon is very happy now.

Zhuo Yang smiled, but did not answer his words.

"However, even if the Crown Prince is inhumane, you have to find a way to have a child with him." Gordon changed the subject in just a split second.

Zhuo Yang frowned puzzled: "Why? You still think my fate is not miserable enough, and you want me to have an extra child to be a burden in the future?"

"Because of the Legion of Glory and the Legion of Dawn." Gordon said.

There are a total of ten legions in the Osfia Empire, and the Glory Legion and the Dawn Legion are two of them... Among them, the Dawn Legion is known as the strongest legion in the empire, and it is the best soldier in the entire Osfia army. Both the royal family and the parliament should be a little bit afraid.

And these two legions belonged to the crown prince before his accident.

Zhuo Yang asked him: "What do you mean?"

"Now, His Majesty's physical condition is very bad, and he may die at any time, and the Crown Prince is also the same... On the surface, the candidate for the next emperor, except for the second prince who is the only two remaining sentinel princes With the third prince, there is no other choice." Gordon smiled and said: "But in fact, if the crown prince has a sentinel child as his heir, everything will be very different."

Zhuo Yang didn't believe it: "How is this possible? The second and third princes are both adults, and the crown prince and His Majesty's bodies won't last long... They are not fools, so how could they let a baby sit on the throne?" Woolen cloth?"

"It's true that they are adults, but they don't have military power in their hands. In other words, even if they do, some are only loyal to the country. The so-called elite soldiers composed of nobles and descendants of aristocratic families can't even go to the battlefield and fight star robbers." It is an empty shell that cannot be achieved, and the gold and jade are broken inside." Gordon said: "But the crown prince is different."

Zhuo Yang asked: "How to say?"

"Baby, do you think that the crown prince's body has become like this, and his crown prince's position has not been taken down, is it really because of the so-called public support and the kindness of his two younger brothers? What can the public do? In addition to talking about it, being suppressed, apart from shouting a few words, didn't you just accept the fact that the crown prince was replaced? Those who can't lift their hands or shoulders have to be protected by the state." Gordon said: "However, the Glorious Legion and Li Xiao The Legion is different, if someone dares to covet the crown prince's seat when he is still alive, even if it is the crown prince's brothers, their group of hooligans and lunatics can get rid of him."

Gordon said: "If the crown prince has an heir, let alone a baby, even if it is an embryo, I can guarantee that they can all get the throne."

"This is also the reason why the crown prince's body is like this, the emperor and the empress don't dare to move him lightly, and they have to secretly ask for his opinion if they want to help someone take his seat. If they want to get the crown prince's agreement to compromise, they dare not force him Whoever dares to touch the crown prince at this time, even the empress, the two armies of the crown prince... especially the dawn army, can rebel on the spot." He said.

Zhuo Yang listened quietly and didn't speak for a while.

Gordon said word by word: "It doesn't matter what the reason and original intention of the Crown Prince to take over and take charge of these two legions in the first place, but now, these two legions are completely private soldiers of Modis Bricania. "

"They...especially the gangsters of the Dawn Legion who grew up on the edge of the star, hated the nobles, hated the family, hated the class, but were rescued by the crown prince. They are not loyal to the emperor, the royal family, or even the empire, but only loyal to the empire. Crown Prince."
