Mermaid Wen paranoid villain overturned

In the capital's Star Palace Council Hall, a huge clock hangs under the dark blue algae well.

With the swing of the pendulum, every corner of the council hall was crowded with high-ranking officials from all over the empire.

"I heard that the regent is ill. Will he come to the regular meeting today?"

"He hasn't missed a meeting yet."

"It is said that the regent's starship is on the capital planet...Of course it will come."

Before the official start of the meeting, the town hall was extremely lively.

The executives of the empire gathered in twos and threes, chatting about the recent major events.

Lu Yunwan hasn't come yet, but his name is still mentioned repeatedly in the chat - with reverence, fear, and resentment.

It is everywhere like a ghost wandering over the city hall.

The pendulum swayed again, and there was a pleasant sound in the council hall.

At this moment, the gray-blue door engraved with mermaids and spears on the southernmost side of the hall suddenly opened.

The council hall was so quiet that a pin drop could be heard in an instant.

"Master Regent, good morning." They paused the topic and stood up facing the door.

At the same time, Chu Xuanzhou who had been waiting outside the door for a while finally saw Lu Yunwan.

Today's Regent is very different from the past.

——Lu Yunwan wore a double-breasted black military uniform, a pair of white silk gloves, and rarely wore a cape.

Without the cover of the loose coat, the slim tailoring of the military uniform fully displayed the slender and beautiful figure of the regent, who was different from the elegant figure of a mermaid.

He's like a cardboard guy in comics.

Lu Yunwan stood still at the door with a smile, without even looking at the people in the council hall, he turned around and nodded to Chu Xuanzhou with a smile: "Okay, Your Highness will follow me today."

"Yes, Lord Regent."

Today Chu Xuanzhou was brought to the regular administrative meeting of the empire as the "Personal Assistant to the Prince Regent".

Chu Xuanzhou saw that in addition to putting on the military uniform, Lu Yunwan, who attended the regular meeting, also wore a medal on his chest.

In addition to the red poppy medal representing the Cangrui star, there is also a sharp blade symbolizing the supreme sovereignty of the legion, and star stamps representing various galaxies.

But the most is the military medal.

The cold light in the algae well hit Lu Yunwan's body, illuminating the medals and giving off a dazzling light.

Lu Yunwan led Chu Xuanzhou and walked over through the gray-blue door.

The huge statue engraved on the door, implying that the mermaid will always guard and rule the empire, also became Lu Yunwan's foil at this moment.

"Good morning." It wasn't until Lu Yunwan smiled and took the main seat that everyone came to their senses.

——This time the outfit is very in place.

Lu Yunwan scored [-] points for his appearance!

Unlike other jobs, there is no video recording of the regular administrative meeting of the empire, and Lu Yunwan has no idea what the original owner will do when he attends the meeting.

After a few days of anxiety, he finally decided... just forget about being a salted fish.

The meeting officially started, and the regent who sat at the top remained silent. He smiled and looked at the person who was speaking, hiding all his emotions in those dark eyes.

What the official was saying, Lu Yunwan really couldn't understand a word.

He originally intended to pretend to be deep, but Lu Yunwan did not expect that his performance would make all the people attending the regular administrative meeting of the empire nervous.

...Did I say something wrong just now?

What does the Prince Regent mean by smiling like that?

Is it not that simple?

In just a few minutes, someone broke out in a cold sweat.

"Uh... the super optical brain has been stolen for several months, Lord Regent, we suggest temporarily stopping the search for it and re-developing a new generation of optical brain."

"Oh?" Hearing this, Lu Yunwan finally regained his spirits.

This incident was written in "Mermaid Empire"!

The super optical brain can obtain data from all interstellar optical brains and integrate them to perform ultra-complex calculations.

It is said that its existence can change history.

Just one month before Lu Yunwan's arrival, the optical brain developed by tens of thousands of scientific researchers for more than 30 years was stolen.

The original book said that after a few months, everyone wanted to stop the search and use the funds to develop the No. [-] optical brain, but this suggestion was rejected by the regent.

Lu Yunwan lowered his head and wiped off the non-existent dust on the poppy stick with his gloves, and said softly, "No, keep looking."

Lu Yunwan, who was still ill, had a weak voice.

It's like a silver needle hidden in cotton, looking gentle but stabbing hard inadvertently.

"His Royal Highness, until now we haven't captured any signal, and the optical brain has most likely been stolen and destroyed... Instead of spending a lot of manpower and material resources to continue searching, it is better to use this fund for the development of a new generation of optical brains Go." The specially invited researcher couldn't help but say.

From the corner of Lu Yunwan's eyes, he saw that Chu Xuanzhou, who was sitting behind him, also cast a slightly puzzled look.

After all, no matter from which angle you look at it, the researcher's speculations and suggestions are very reasonable.

...The most important thing is that Lu Yunwan himself doesn't know how to refute it.

A few seconds later, the regent coughed softly, and he suddenly nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, I will do as you say."

Lu Yunwan deliberately followed his words.

"Ah..." The official who first brought up the matter was stunned.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

He instinctively told himself: It's too unreasonable for Lu Yunwan to defect so quickly.

The man quickly met the researcher's eyes, and then said very nervously: "My lord... Uh, the search has only been going on for a few months, and there should be problems that we haven't considered. Let's... discuss it again." , I will submit a detailed plan to you at any time."

Lu Yunwan didn't speak, nor nodded, just watched him with a smile.

Being looked at by the regent, the official almost forgot how to breathe.

He sat down straight, the clothes behind his back were completely soaked in cold sweat, and he couldn't relax until the end of the meeting.

The regent didn't look at him again.

Lu Yun brought Chu Xuanzhou to the meeting so that he could understand the power structure and daily work of the empire as soon as possible.

As the protagonist, Chu Xuanzhou put most of his attention on Lu Yunwan.

At this time, Chu Xuanzhou realized that—unlike everyone in the council hall, power is not a weapon for Lu Yunwan.

It's his toys, even his makeup.

……

The huge pendulum rang again, and the meeting had started for three hours.

Today's Imperial Executive Council has reached the last topic.

"Your Majesty Regent, the investigation of Ren Songqing's dereliction of duty case is coming to an end, and the mech R&D department's suggestion is to demote him for punishment." A mermaid said.

Lu Yunwan suddenly raised his eyebrows lightly.

He leaned back, lowered his head and asked Chu Xuanzhou, "Your Highness knows about Ren Songqing, right?"

It looked like Lu Yunwan was communicating with Chu Xuanzhou in private, but in fact he didn't control the volume, and everyone in the council hall could hear his question.

Chu Xuanzhou nodded and said, "Last month, the blueprints leaked in the Mecha Research and Development Department. As the main person in charge, Ren Songqing was suspended for investigation."

What he didn't say is that not long ago, Ren Song cursed the regent after drinking, and was photographed by interstellar media and posted on the star network.

This incident caused a lot of noise some time ago, and once became a topic of conversation among the citizens of the empire.

Lu Yunwan nodded, and suddenly smiled with downcast eyes.

Then he lowered his voice, approached Chu Xuanzhou's ear in front of countless senior officials of the empire, and whispered to the young man: "Your Highness, power is only worthy of being called power when it is used."

All of Lu Yunwan's words reached Chu Xuanzhou's ears, but he still didn't understand Lu Yunwan's meaning suddenly.

A beam of cold light descended from the depths of the algae well, just in time to pull Lu Yun into the cage.

At this moment, Lu Yunwan suddenly became extremely distant.

The scene in front of him suddenly reminded Chu Xuanzhou of a sentence:

Your destiny is to live in a theater, and your audience is the whole world. ①

... At this time, Lu Yunwan is the only master of the interstellar stage.

Lu Yunwan coughed lightly, and finally said to Chu Xuanzhou: "The more obstacles you feel when using it, the more power you will have."

After saying this, Lu Yunwan finally sat up straight again.

Ren Songqing is a representative official of the aristocratic faction. Although he was at odds with Lu Yunwan, in the previous similar cases, Lu Yunwan chose to take it lightly and used it as a bargaining chip to exchange interests with the aristocratic group.

Just when everyone thought that Lu Yunwan would do the same this time, the regent gave a different answer.

He tapped the table a few times with his fingers casually, his black eyes swept across the table, and suddenly asked, "Crime of dereliction of duty?"

"If I remember correctly, the drawings were not simply leaked, but were "accidentally" sent to other countries.Don't you think "treason" is more appropriate than "dereliction of duty"? "

After his words fell, everyone in the council hall fell silent.

Even Chu Xuanzhou looked over in disbelief.

After an unknown amount of time, a familiar voice broke the suffocating silence.

"Is the Lord Regent joking?" It was Pei Hanji who spoke.

Pei Zhao'an, who did not have any title or official position, could not attend the meeting, and now Pei Hanji represented him.

Lu Yunwan's skin is sickly pale, and his figure is much thinner than that of a mermaid.

However, he has a strong aura that cannot be ignored, cultivated in a high position for a long time, and the killing intent brought out from the battlefield.

"Carry out an in-depth investigation according to the crime of treason," Lu Yunwan suddenly suppressed his smile, looked at Pei Hanji coldly, and laughed again after a while, "This is not a suggestion, Your Highness, this is my order. "

Lu Yunwan's tone was extremely firm.

The name Ren Songqing and Lu Yunwan also came to mind just now.

In the original book, he deliberately leaked the blueprints, which did not attract much attention, and he was reinstated after a few days of suspension.

However, it didn't take long for him to leak the secret again, directly killing thousands of people on the battlefield.

Lu Yunwan had no choice but to watch those people die.

——Anyway, the original owner is a villain, so it's completely unreasonable to be cruel!

The most important thing is that I can escape to death, and I am not afraid of revenge at all.

So if you don't go crazy now, when are you waiting?

"What exactly do you want?" Everyone, including Pei Hanji, felt that Lu Yunwan was using the case to avenge himself.

"It's very simple." Chu Xuanzhou saw that Lu Yunwan, who was sitting in front of him, suddenly stood up holding his cane. He glanced down with a smile, and said the most terrifying words in the most gentle voice, "Death!" , I want him dead."

The government hall was unbelievably quiet, only Lu Yunwan's voice echoed in everyone's ears over and over again.

He looked down at Pei Hanji, and said to the other party in a helpless tone: "What should I do? I will be happy only when he dies."

The huge council hall was silent, and everyone held their breath. They were afraid that a small mistake, or just because they offended Lu Yunwan before, would cause a catastrophe to themselves.

Only Lu Yunwan sat back to his seat with a smile. He stirred the coffee on the table with a spoon, and finally smiled and "comforted" everyone as if he didn't know anything: "Don't be nervous, it's just a small matter."

At the moment, everyone's bones stand on end.

Lu Yunwan is the regent of the empire, and even a beautiful Shura who climbed up from hell.

-

The meeting ended in an atmosphere of insecurity.

After leaving the council hall, Lu Yunwan suddenly stood where he was and looked at Chu Xuanzhou.

"Your Highness, do you also think I shouldn't do this?"

Lu Yunwan gently caressed Chu Xuanzhou's cheek with his hand, his movements were incredibly light.

Like a cold snake's tail sweeping gently.

The young man pursed his lips and did not answer the question immediately.

Lu Yunwan immediately cheered up——

In the original book, Chu Xuanzhou climbed up from the bottom bit by bit, and he knew very well what the whole empire was like.

And during this period, he learned how to use unconventional means to rule this perverted empire.

Now Chu Xuanzhou did not go through those plots.

I must teach the protagonist all these skills!

Seeing that Chu Xuanzhou was silent, Lu Yunwan laughed. While slowly sliding his hand over the badge on his chest, he said to Chu Xuanzhou: "In a high position in the empire, you must be willful. You must never obey rules, but make rules."

"Even make yourself the rule."

In the fringe world where Chu Xuanzhou lived in the past, the only rule was the law of the jungle.

He accepted Lu Yunwan's words almost instantly.

The boy nodded gently: "Okay."

"Then do you know what you should do first if you want to become a rule?"

The teenager couldn't help frowning: "Learn it?"

The light came from the other side of the corridor, coating Lu Yunban with a layer of light gold, and dragged a long shadow behind him, looking extremely holy.

But in fact, he was seducing Chu Xuanzhou sentence by sentence.

The regent took off the Hyacinth Medal on his chest, and his movements were not careful. The silver needle on the back of the Hyacinth pierced Lu Yunwan's finger in an instant, and he fainted scarlet.

"wrong."

He handed the medal to Chu Xuanzhou, and told the young man with a smile: "The first thing to do is to abandon "morality". "

"Get rid of its shackles and do whatever you want, Your Highness."

Seeing the blood on Lu Yunwan's fingertips, Chu Xuanzhou suddenly asked, "What if it hurts you?"

Lu Yunwan laughed happily, and even that smile caused a slight cough.

He put his hand to his lips, and the next second there were a few plum blossom-like bloodstains on the white silk gloves.

His lips were also stained red with blood.

"Have you forgotten our deal, Your Highness? I've been looking forward to that day."

Lu Yun said with a smile.
