Royal Alchemist

In the office, Feng Qi called You Zixun and Lu Ting to have a small meeting.Lu Ting handed over a report: "The last batch of members of the Legion of Faith has been arranged to leave, and the repatriation work has been completed."

Feng Qi took the report and skimmed through it briefly: "Theodore is gone too?"

"Yes, he was trying to go last, to get on the last boat."

Most of Solomon's nobles took advantage of the wind and turned to the Shining Empire, but there were still a small number of stubborn people who did not change their loyalty. According to the agreement between Fengqi and Safirol, he allowed these people to leave and hand over to Solomon at the designated place .

The Empress Dowager Solomon and the Young Duke Anthony had left the Imperial City long ago while Safirol was convalescing. From the first batch to the last batch of Theodore, the repatriation that lasted for nearly half a month was finally completed.

"Where is Safirol now?" Feng Qi looked up at You Zixun.

You Zixun opened a star map and quickly found an area: "He went to the swamp."

The official name of the swamp is the Alman star field, because there is only one star with a small mass, and most of the habitable planets are wet and cold, and the land is barren, so it is called the swamp.

Even if Solomon was not exterminated, Feng Qi could not let him live in a place with a suitable climate and rich products.

"Does Your Majesty have any plans to mobilize troops?" You Zixun asked tentatively.

Feng Qi pondered for a long time: "Ten years later."

The war has dealt a huge blow to both countries, and both sides are exhausted troops who urgently need to recuperate.Right now, the power has been changed, and the foundation of Shining Empire is weak, and they don't have enough energy to embarrass Solomon, so they can only put it on hold temporarily.

You Zixun nodded in understanding.

"Build a defense line on the border, make a plan for me." Feng Qi said.

"Yes."

"Anything else?" Feng Qi asked.

Lu Ting took out another photo: "Your portrait is preliminarily completed, please take a look."

There is an emperor corridor in Solomon's palace, and the portraits of each generation of emperors are hung on the walls. Now that Fengqi enters the palace, all the portraits of Emperor Solomon have been removed and will be replaced with Fengqi's portrait of the emperor.

Feng Qi stared at the photo for a long time: "I asked someone to draw autumn leaves on it. Later, the rules changed. Instead of hanging a separate portrait of the emperor, all portraits of the emperor's family were hung. As my spouse, Qiu Ye also appeared in the corridor of the emperor. Li." After speaking, Feng Qi was very satisfied with his decision.

Lu Ting and You Zixun looked at each other and said weakly, "Your Majesty, have you forgotten something?"

"what's up?"

"General Qiu is not your spouse yet. You have neither registered with the Civil Affairs Bureau, nor registered with the Alchemist Association, nor have you sworn an oath before God..."

Feng Qi was shocked. He slept with Qiu Ye every day, and his spiritual world had long been merged into one. The whole empire knew that they were a couple. Now Lu Ting actually said that they were illegal.

How could the clever, wise, mighty and domineering Emperor Fengqi allow such a thing to happen?His face sank: "I am the law, and my union with Qiuye does not need a piece of paper to prove it! Hurry up and draw him on it."

Lu Ting naturally said yes again and again.

Feng Qi immediately fell into deep thought: "So, should I still propose to Qiu Ye?"

Lu Ting and You Zixun looked at Feng Qi, their eyes were clearly saying "otherwise".

Feng Qi continued to think: "Will we hold a carnival on January [-]st?"

-

At the same time, Qiu Ye was on his way to the cemetery, the Clark family surrendered to the Shining Empire, and Jon naturally slept quietly in the family cemetery.

The war was over, and he wanted to tell Jon the news.

"You wait for me outside, I'll go in by myself." Qiu Ye said to Jacques.

The half-demonized people are undergoing reversal treatment, and the Demon Hunter Legion will cease to exist with the disappearance of the demons, leaving only a name in the history books.The legion was reorganized into a special operations team, and a small number of irreversible semi-demonized people stayed according to their own wishes, and Jacques also returned to Akiba.

In the cemetery, there is a kind of tranquility. Qiuye walked into the area of ​​the Clark family with a white rose in his hand, and saw a man standing in front of Jon's grave. He was dressed in black with his head bowed. Normally, he would take off his hat when mourning the dead. , but he wore a wide hat with the brim pushed down extremely low.

"Girod?" Qiuye exclaimed in a low voice, looking around nervously.

Girod came back to his senses, took a big step back, and stared at Akiba warily.

Only then did Qiuye see his face clearly, his eyes were blood red and his complexion was pale. "Don't be nervous, I don't want to fight you in front of Jon." Qiu Ye said.

At this time, Girod still dared to sneak to the Imperial Capital alone, Qiu Ye didn't know what else to say, once he was caught, he could be charged with various crimes.

Gerald slowly relaxed his body, but still glanced at Akiba displeased, as if complaining that he disturbed his reunion with Jon.

Qiu Ye put the white rose in front of Jon's grave: "Go before no one finds you, it's too dangerous."

Gerald's voice was hoarse: "I'm afraid I will never have the opportunity to come back to see him in my life."

Qiu Ye choked for a moment, he had already talked about this, so what else could he say?

"I'm sorry for him." Gerald lowered his head, "I could have saved him, but I was too stupid and it was all my fault."

Akiba wanted to comfort him, but she didn't know what to say: "I will visit him often."

Girod turned a deaf ear, immersed in his own world: "I should have brought him to my house a long time ago, so that I could take him away, I shouldn't have listened to my father, no one can make decisions for me. "

Although Akiba felt that Gerald looked pitiful now, in contrast, Jon was already lying on the cold ground with no future, so she couldn't help stabbing him: "Jon is gone, what do you say? What's the use?"

Gerald lowered his head even lower.

"Now you can't forget him, but what about one year later, five years later, ten years later? I won't say anything about him. In a few years, when you get married and have children, you won't even know what he looks like." Forget it all."

"No!" Gerald firmly denied, excitedly, "I will not forget him!"

Qiu Ye said wickedly: "Who knows?"

"Of course you don't know, what do you know!" Gerald was annoyed, the voice in his throat seemed to be squeezed out, "He left and emptied my heart."

Qiu Ye let out a long sigh. Since ancient times, parting hurts people the most, let alone parting for life and death?

"Hurry up and go, be careful not to be seen by others." Qiu Ye said.

Girod gave Jon a last look. The parting glance seemed to take all the strength out of him, and he left the cemetery with heavy steps.

On the tombstone, Jon smiled brightly, as if sadness had never bothered him, but no one knew how bad he had been in the period before his accident.

Qiu Ye twitched the corner of her mouth: "If there is a next life, don't miss it. Take a good rest."

After saying goodbye to Jon, Qiuye did not leave directly, but took Jacques to another cemetery.

When they came to a wide area, they saw a lifting robot placing a carved monument. The small square in front of the monument was half repaired, and the blue bricks on the ground had not been fully paved.

"General Qiu!" The second lieutenant in charge of supervision saluted Qiu Ye.

Qiu Ye signaled him to relax, and tilted his chin towards the monument: "How's the progress?"

The second lieutenant still stood up straight: "Report to the general, it will take another day to complete! I promise not to delay the memorial ceremony next week!"

Qiu Ye nodded, looking at the ocher-red monument in the distance, with infinite sadness in her heart.

Feng Qi is scheduled to hold a memorial ceremony for the fallen soldiers next week, and the cemetery is under intense construction.

-

It was a day of continuous drizzle, and the cold rain fell on Qiu Ye's face. He raised his hand, and the rain fell on his palm, moistening his gloves.

He wondered why the memorial service was always held on such a day?

The senior generals of each legion and the guards of the legion commanders participated in the memorial ceremony for the fallen soldiers. The soldiers lined up neatly in the square, and the legion chiefs stood at the forefront of their respective legions.The rain fell on their shoulders, and they remained motionless.

Feng Qi got off the car, his new captain of the guard immediately held up an umbrella and put it on top of his head, Feng Qi whispered: "No need."

The red monument is carved with a big sword relief, which symbolizes strength and courage. On the far right is a long poem of heroes, praising every hero who sacrificed his life to resist foreign enemies.White and yellow flowers covered the bottom of the monument, and the petals were wet by the rain, giving off a dull floral fragrance.

When the mourning sounded, Feng Qi's icy blue eyes were colder than the sky, his black military cap was held in his hand, and his blond hair was clung to his scalp.At the end of the song, Qiu Ye heard Feng Qi say in a low voice: "Let's go."

The ceremony was brief and solemn. Qiuye chatted with several generals and found that Jacques was gone.

After walking around for a while, I saw Jacques standing in front of a tombstone, which was Wu Dong's tomb.

Wu Dong had the highest military rank among the fallen soldiers, and his tomb was larger than others, with his birth and death dates and memorabilia engraved on it.

Jacques' shoulders twitched from crying, and his blue-black face was covered with tears.The moment Wu Dong rushed towards the death light was like a brand on his heart, which he still can't forget.

Qiu Ye put a flower in front of the grave: "Don't cry, if Wu Dong knows, he will definitely dislike you, you know he is not a patient person."

But Jacques cried even harder. Although he had matured a lot after experiencing a war, he occasionally still had the shadow of that timid boy.

"Let's go." Qiu Ye squatted on the ground, looking at Wu Dong's photo.

He stood up and looked around, and saw a group of tombstones that were so blue that he couldn't see the end. This was only a small part, and there was such a cemetery on every planet that had experienced the war.

They gave their young lives to defend against foreign enemies, and their blood stained every starry sky, and today their souls return to their hometowns.

"Let's all go."
