Gu Tanzhi is a good emperor, there is no doubt about it.

Qi Yichen became a major general at a young age. Apart from his illustrious military exploits, there is also the reason why Gu Tanzhi pushed him against the odds and promoted him continuously.

Before that, Qi Yichen and Gu Tanzhi had a good relationship in private, at least they could be called friends.

But...Jiang Chiqiu who is familiar with "When the Milky Way" knew that all this did not last long.

The original book does not describe the relationship between "I" and Gu Tanzhi in detail, but as far as Jiang Chiqiu knows Gu Tanzhi so far—even if their relationship is average, Gu Tanzhi does treat "I" as a family member.

He will definitely not think that Jiang Chiqiu deserves death like everyone else.

After seeing Qi Yichen with the sword appearing, Jiang Chiqiu quickly recalled this episode in his heart.

In the original novel, Jiang Chiqiu's death made the relationship between Qi Yichen and Gu Tanzhi no longer what it used to be.

With a heart of love for talent, Gu Tanzhi didn't have the idea of ​​stumbling Qi Yichen's career, but this doesn't mean that the blackened Gu Tanzhi will still point and hit as before.

After a long period of decline, Qi Yichen, who reappeared in the political arena of Thealed Empire, no longer hides his ambitions.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chiqiu couldn't help but shift his gaze to the sword on Gu Tanzhi's waist.

When the Thalod Empire was founded, four long swords were cast, representing the royal family, imperial court, military department and parliament respectively.

The handle Qi Yichen wears on his waist is the one from the military department, and only three generals have worn it in a hundred years.

At this moment, the entire hall was silent, only He Lanyang who was standing beside Jiang Chiqiu noticed his slightly nervous expression.

"What's wrong?" He Lanyang walked slowly and asked softly behind Jiang Chiqiu's ear.

Jiang Chiqiu pursed his lips slightly, he shook his head: "It's okay..."

It's all right, no wonder!

At this moment, Jiang Chiqiu's mood has directly surpassed the stupefaction and collapse, and rushed to numbness.

——In the original book, Qi Yichen, who returned to the army, apart from his ambition, no longer concealed his desire for power and blood.

A simple summary is: during this period, Qi Yichen and Gu Tanzhi had disagreements on military matters, and at the same time, Gu Tanzhi also began to fear the young major general.

After being blackened, Qi Yichen, whose brain circuits became more clear, suggested stationing on marginal planets. This is an extremely dangerous choice, and it is also a good way to challenge Gu Tanzhi.

——The frequency of the Dyrod Empire being harassed by Zerg increased year by year, and Gu Tanzhi could not refuse Qi Yichen's request to be stationed.

If Jiang Chiqiu remembers correctly, Qi Yichen wore such a dress when he officially went to station on the fringe planet in "The Galaxy".

But this plot should happen after dozens of chapters, not now!

Looking at Qi Yichen's back, Jiang Chiqiu couldn't help clenching his fists.

Qi Yichen stepped forward and bowed to the emperor, and then heard Gu Tanzhi say: "Everyone, from tomorrow onwards, Major General Qi Yichen will lead the army to station in the Chilanhe galaxy, and will be on the front line to resist the invasion of the Zerg."

The "Chilanhe Galaxy" is considered to be a buffer zone between the Daeled Empire and the Zerg-occupied area. The population here is too dense to remove everyone.

Every time the Zerg invaded, the empire could only send mechas to try their best to delay the time, and at the same time ordered the starship to quickly remove the people in the galaxy.

as expected!Jiang Chiqiu pursed his lips.

Even Gu Tanzhi's words are similar to what was written in the original book...

Gu Tan knew that he didn't agree with Qi Yichen's choice, so when he told everyone about it, he didn't use very formal words.

Unlike Jiang Chiqiu, who had a premonition, when he heard Gu Tanzhi's words, the banquet hall, which was still quiet just now, suddenly became noisy.It wasn't until everyone felt Gu Tanzhi's cold gaze that they stopped.

"It's about to be sealed..." Jiang Chiqiu murmured suddenly.

The word "seal" was learned by Jiang Chiqiu from other planes. He Lanyang couldn't help but look down at Jiang Chiqiu again when he heard him speak suddenly, but this time the man didn't speak anymore.

Sure enough, as soon as Jiang Chiqiu finished speaking, Gu Tanzhi continued: "While reinstating his post, the military will send three more legions to cooperate with Major General Qi Yichen."

Everyone present understood that even though Qi Yichen was still called a "major general", his actual status had already surpassed that of a lieutenant general when counting the three new legions assigned to him.

Qi Yichen, who was standing in the center of the hall, slowly pulled out his long sword, repeating the oath he made before the expedition.

The huge crystal chandelier hanging in the hall shredded the light onto Qi Yichen's face. He was still the same as before, with a solemn expression and an elegant posture.

But He Lanyang felt that he could read the ambition and desire in Qi Yichen's eyes that had never appeared before.

Jiang Chiqiu was in despair.

In the original book, it is clearly stated that when the plot reaches this point, the relationship between Qi Yichen and Gu Tanzhi is no longer what it used to be.

But now that he is not dead, and Qi Yichen has not experienced depression and blackening like in the book, why did he suddenly have a normal relationship with Gu Tanzhi?

There is a problem, there must be a problem!

Before the banquet officially ended, Jiang Chiqiu slipped back while Qi Yichen was surrounded by his colleagues to congratulate him.

What he didn't know was that not long after he disappeared, Minister He Lan suddenly walked up to Qi Yichen with a wine glass.

"Major General Qi" He Lanyang raised his glass with a smile, "Congratulations..."

Before him, Qi Yichen was surrounded by people from the military department.The sudden appearance of He Lanyang made the surrounding atmosphere slightly stagnant.

After half a minute, Qi Yichen turned his gaze around as if he finally noticed He Lanyang.

His behavior is really disrespectful to the other party.

"Minister He Lanyang? What's the matter?" Qi Yichen asked pretending to be surprised.

Of course He Lanyang understood that Qi Yichen did this on purpose, but he pretended not to care and raised his glass to Qi Yichen again: "Congratulations on your reinstatement."

Seeing this, Qi Yichen also raised his wine glass, and after seeing the two people coming and going, the military staff who surrounded Qi Yichen before finally smelled something different.

Several people looked at each other, and said goodbye to Qi Yichen one after another. In a blink of an eye, only Qi Yichen and He Lanyang were left here.

After the others left, the smile on Qi Yichen's face disappeared in an instant. He shook the wine glass towards the crystal lamp not far away, and then drank the crimson liquid in the glass in one gulp.

"I know what you're thinking." At this moment, He Lanyang shrugged slightly and said with a relaxed expression.

"Oh?" Qi Yichen handed the empty wine glass to the robot beside him with a half-smile, then turned to look at He Lanyang, "So what does Minister He Lan think I'm thinking?"

He Lanyang simply stopped pretending, his face suddenly became gloomy, and then he said slowly: "Do you know that Chi Qiu usually reads the comments on Xingwang?"

"Xingwang?" Apparently, Qi Yichen didn't think that He Lanyang would say this to himself.

He Lanyang sneered and said, "That's right, how do you think Chi Qiu will feel after reading the comments on Xingwang?"

The study of mental strength strangulation has not produced results for a long time, and Jiang Chiqiu and the entire Imperial Research Institute have long been blacklisted by netizens.

"Thanks to you and your subordinates, in the eyes of netizens, you and Chi Qiu are as deeply in love as the ocean, and as ungrateful as the other..."

As a major general, Qi Yichen lived very far away from ordinary people, and he used to pay great attention to protecting his privacy.

For example——except for a few people around him, no one knew that he and Jiang Chiqiu had been together for many years.

But now there are rumors about the relationship between Jiang Chiqiu and Qi Yichen everywhere on the starnet, it doesn't take much thinking to know that these are absolutely inseparable from Qi Yichen.

He Lanyang felt that he understood why Qi Yichen did this:

He did love Jiang Chiqiu as much as the rumors said, but this love has been distorted.Qi Yichen wants the whole world to abandon Jiang Chiqiu, because he is Jiang Chiqiu's only...

Hearing this, Qi Yichen couldn't help frowning and interrupted He Lanyang, "What exactly are you trying to say?"

"Don't punish Chi Qiu with emotion, leave everything to the law and judgment." He Lanyang remembered Jiang Chiqiu's care and concern for Qi Yichen, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Some things, don't wait until you lose them to regret."

Unexpectedly, after hearing his words, Qi Yichen actually laughed.

"Losing? What else do I have to lose?"

If Jiang Chiqiu were here, and seeing Qi Yichen like this, he would definitely lament that the other party has the aura of disapproval after being blackened in "The Galaxy".

"You will lose... Chi Qiu." After the words fell, He Lanyang felt that he shouldn't have said that.He closed his mouth with a very complicated expression.

But after hearing He Lanyang's words, Qi Yichen fell silent in a rare way, "I won't..." His voice was very small, and he didn't know whether he was speaking to himself or He Lanyang, "I won't..."

I don't know what I thought of, but Qi Yichen's expression was rarely flustered and helpless.

Facing Qi Yichen like this, He Lanyang couldn't help but said suddenly: "You are so selfish..."

Hearing this, Qi Yichen finally raised his head, squinted his eyes at He Lanyang and asked, "Am I selfish?"

The four words He Lanyang seemed to touch a certain switch on Qi Yichen, and the man switched to the blackening mode again.

He slowly took two steps forward, and finally stood in front of He Lanyang.

Qi Yichen tilted his head slightly, and said in He Lanyang's ear: "Minister He Lan, aren't you selfish?" After finishing speaking, he patted the other person's shoulder lightly, and left here without looking back.

He Lanyang stood there without moving for a long time, Qi Yichen's last words were like a curse, which kept spinning in the back of his mind.

Am I not selfish?

Both Qi Yichen and He Lanyang are prominent figures in the Thealed Empire, and no matter what they do, there are countless people staring at them.

Although they couldn't hear what they said clearly, someone around had recorded their actions and shared them as gossip, which had spread throughout the entire upper echelon of the empire.

Of course, Jiang Chiqiu also saw it...
