A Chime Below the Throne [Interstellar]

Star Trail 10th.

Martial law ends in the Eucalyptus and Rim sectors.

The Lonicera Star District collapsed across the board, and half of the territory fell into the hands of the Void Army.

Star Trail 12th.Queen Teresa, who crowned herself on the throne, tried to stabilize the situation of the rebel army immediately, and even used iron and blood to suppress the opposition of Marshal Bampas. In the king's capital, it turned out to have little effect.

On the 14th of Xinggui, Marshal Bampas resisted all opinions and forced the expedition against Theresa's intention to act as the queen.In two days, they rushed to the Honeysuckle star area.

Strangely, when he arrived at Lonicera, he found that the battle had stabilized.

The second prince, the main general, disappeared mysteriously, but a general with a military rank appeared out of nowhere and stretched the battle line to an edge planet some distance away from Lonicera.

Finally, the situation was stabilized and the Void Army did not invade successfully.

Star Trail 20th.

Homan arrived at the capital.After sneaking into the capital with a false identity, the first thing he heard was the overwhelming news of Marshal Bampas's expedition to Lonicera.

He was dumbfounded at the time.

The news that Tereza acted as a superior was almost nakedly telling him that most of the reasons for Urkli's death were also because of her.

Therefore, Tereza couldn't believe it at all.

And when Homan went to the capital, he planned to come to Marshal Bampas.After the prince's disappearance, he was regarded as a high-ranking person with a heavy army and real power in his hands. He was one of the few people who had a reason and could compete with Teresa.

It's just that he didn't expect that he was so impatient that he had already rushed to Lonicera.

In Homan's view, Honeysuckle is a star sector that can be discarded if necessary.After all, it crossed the Datura star sea area, and the journey was dangerous. As long as the starship route was cut off, this area could be almost sealed, and it would be difficult for the rebels to attack.

No matter how you look at it, there is something wrong with Teresa, who has a bad name and a bad name?

Are the Marshals of the Dragon School all so straight-headed?

He left, and Tereza didn't have any restraint at all, she wanted to do whatever she wanted.

After Homan sent a message to Bumpas, he found a place to settle down for the time being, but he didn't expect that he had just entered the hotel with his front feet, and the royal guards would be attracted by his back feet.

Callis, the captain of the Imperial Guard who he was familiar with, stood in front of him and saluted him. He bowed his body and said respectfully: "Your Excellency Schroeder, please forgive me for interrupting you suddenly. Your Majesty the Queen invites you to enter the palace."

Homan took a deep breath, he never thought that he would be seen through when he sneaked in with ease.

There are so many people who want to see him recently.

"If I don't go, what will Her Majesty the Queen do to me?" Homan asked meanly.

Teresa really got her wish. From His Highness to Your Majesty, maybe it was her long-cherished wish... She really can bark but not bite.

Callis was expressionless, but Homan knew he should be a little embarrassed, and he didn't bother to make things difficult for him.

As a person who is no longer a prince, Tereza can easily kill her, and it doesn't make sense for him to scare himself.After saying that, he followed Kalis to the palace.

After several inspections, Homan was almost cleaned out before he was let into the palace.

Familiar and luxurious decoration, I haven't seen it for a few days, and my mentality has changed when I came in.

It was neither the arrogance and arrogance at the beginning, nor the anger later, but now he will not be much touched by the royal family.

Tereza still looked like a young woman with beautiful make-up, and she was still happy when she saw Homan, as if he was still her obedient son.

Gently shaking the cloth fan in her hand, Tereza squinted and called Homan over.

And every step that Homan, who walked over, was covered in cold sweat from behind.

Tereza looked at Homan with satisfaction, and suddenly reached out and grabbed Homan's hand.

Homan was startled, and wanted to withdraw his hand, but heard Tereza sighed faintly.

"Horman, why did you leave the capital without saying anything?"

Homan broke out in cold sweat: "Her Majesty is serious."

Tereza's eyes seemed resentful, but they were like needles: "Do you think I am willing to take this throne? Homan."

Could it be that there is something forcing you to fail?Homan sneered in his heart, and wanted to take his hand back, but he didn't expect to be grabbed by Queen Teresa.

Tereza's neat hair was disturbed by her excited movements: "Horman, I'm not such a person without self-knowledge. I'm not an emperor at all. Don't I know after living for so many years?"

Homan's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at Tereza suspiciously, not knowing what this woman was doing.

Tereza picked up the silk handkerchief handed over by the maid and wiped the excited tears from the corners of her eyes: "Horman, I have been waiting for you! Even though you are not my own child, I have always regarded you as my own for so many years..."

"Stop talking." Homan felt his disgusting viscera rising up, and he was about to vomit out of his mouth, "You said it yourself, even a three-year-old wouldn't believe it."

Half of Tereza's face was drooping, and something was brewing in the darkness.

Just when Homan thought she was about to get violent, she raised her head and burst into tears: "Homan, you never believed me. I was crowned as an agent, not full power. It's just that there is no one in the center. The Honeysuckle War collapsed, just for the expediency of being able to dispatch the army."

That's very good, I really wronged her, eating is much better than he imagined.

Homan heard himself sneer: "Do you think I will believe this? I don't want to care about it, and I'm not qualified to care about it. I just want to ask one thing, how do you know I'm not your own. "

Tereza covered her face sadly, and after a long time, she raised her head and choked out a sob: "Is this important..."

Homan's eyes lit up, and Tereza definitely knew the inside story: "It's very important." It's so important that if you want to achieve your goal, you must exchange this with me.

Tereza put her hands down, her face filled with bitterness and sorrow: "When I was pregnant with Ludwig, Urkley left me to the Mandala Star Sea because of a piece of news."

"At that time, I was stunned by Ulkli, and I went to the nearby Rose Star to relax. As a result, Daman was very angry when he knew about this, and dragged me to the Mandala Star Sea area. In the end, unexpectedly, We encountered a planetary explosion, we were all affected by the magnetic field, and we all gave birth early, and Daman... died in that delivery because of physical problems."

"The Datura star sea is very large, and there are countless inanimate planets. I didn't even find a single hair of Urkley, and my best friend passed away unexpectedly. I was heartbroken, so I took you and Ludwig I planned to return to the capital. But I didn’t expect that Daman’s husband, that is, your father, Schroeder, rushed over. Because of Urkley’s unauthorized departure, the capital was infiltrated with the rebel organization. But the two layers of the outer galaxy and the inner galaxy are very messy. He has clearly observed that there are rebel activities in this area, so let me hold you and send you back as a little prince as bait."

Homan digested Tereza's news, and his heart was constantly shaking: "Your logic is illogical, are you so relieved to hand Ludwig into Schroeder's hands?"

Tereza: "You don't understand the relationship between me and your father. We graduated from a military school and have known each other for many years. His character is trustworthy."

"Where did Ludwig get taken?"

Tereza shook her head: "In order to prevent me from revealing Ludwig's whereabouts after being captured by the rebels, I don't know."

Homan was about to vomit blood: "And then?"

Teresa: "It's very strange. When I took you back to the capital, there were no rebels to stop me, and I entered the capital smoothly."

"You also know what happened later. You are fine, but Kasimir was taken away. It was obviously after the turmoil, under the martial law and closure, he disappeared."

Homan abruptly pulled his hand out of Tereza's: "Why didn't we change it back later?"

Tereza looked a little embarrassed: "Schroeder detained Ludwig. I didn't even know whether he was dead or alive."

Archduke Schroeder definitely has a problem.This point has been firmly established in Homan's mind.

Speaking now, Homan changed his tone: "What did you ask me to do? Tell me."

Tereza's expression changed into a sensational mode in a second: "Horman. I know you have always wanted this, this position. Although you are not my own, but I watched you grow up. Ludwig is missing, you are responsible He is my son, this position should be yours."

This logic is also eaten by dogs.

In any case, it was not his turn to sit on the throne.

Even if the name is not justified, most of the troops are sent out during the current turmoil. As long as Tereza gives a reasonable reason, Homan's position is not a problem at all.

The strange thing is that Homan doesn't feel the slightest sense of joy when the demanding things are within easy reach.

He was expressionless: "How can you be sure that Ludwig will not come back?"

Tereza cried bitterly: "Child, now is not the time to think about this. Now..."

Tereza's words passed before Homan's eyes like a pale veil, and none of them entered his ears.And the question in his mind was, why did Tereza want him on the throne?

"The most important thing is, Homan, you are the most suitable person for this position. As long as I announce Ludwig's death to the public and give you a dragon vein status, the overall situation will be stabilized and you will be in the position."

why?

Do you hesitate to announce the death of your own son?

Tereza's weeping face was ugly and strange.

Homan found that his heart was as hard as a stone, and he was not dissuaded by her reasons at all, and he was not even shaken at all.

If he was himself a year ago, he would probably talk about it first, but now, what he is thinking about is——

Ludwig.

Why did Teresa's tone seem so determined?Think Ludwig won't be back.

Wait, isn't it?

Was she colluding with Eefa's nihilistic rebels?What news did you get—

Ludwig really dead?

This cognition was like a huge boulder falling from the sky, smashing his body to pieces with a "bang", leaving only a puddle of flesh and blood trembling unwillingly.

Will not.

Homan took a breath and told himself.

This is just one possibility.Tereza, acting like a victim, begged him to take the throne, and there was definitely something wrong with it.But it wasn't Tereza at the starting point.

Homan replied perfunctorily, intending to think about it again.

The news of Ludwig's possible death rumbled in his brain.In the end, he didn't even know how he got out of the palace.
