Marshal's Cannon Fodder Spouse [Transmigration]

Because of his advanced age and the fact that he has been lingering on the sick bed for a while, the man's voice was extremely hoarse, as if it had been forcefully squeezed out from some gap.Duan Hengye has always felt that aging is an unavoidable process, no matter how advanced the technology is now, no one will escape the laws of nature.

Natural aging is also a gentle and graceful process, but the man in front of him probably has nothing to do with these two words.

He enjoyed the glory and wealth all his life, but he also contracted a lot of bad habits in the process.Duan Hengye thought, if he was young, this Duke would definitely be considered an upgraded version of Duan Hengxing's dude.

It might have been difficult to see clearly from a distance just now, but now when you get closer, you can see that the skin on the old man's face is very poor.That layer of skin and flesh floated on the bones, like old bark that had just survived the cold winter.Although I have seen him many times before, I already have this person's appearance in my memory.But after seeing the Duke in a worse condition again, Duan Hengye couldn't help but be surprised by the other party's appearance.

However, Duan Hengye remained calm on the surface, and did not reveal his emotions from the last second.

The man lying on the hospital bed raised his eyelids again, and then gave Duan Hengye a tired look.After looking up and down for a long time, he said slowly: "The first time I saw you, you were still a child... At that time, you were affected by an accident just now and lost your memory. You really looked stunned."

Many people in the interstellar world know that Duan Hengye's memory was lost after the accident in the experiment.After the Queen's family adopted him, the first thing they did was to take Duan Hengye for an in-depth physical examination.When talking about this incident at the time, most people were admiring the aristocratic family's care for the scientist's orphan.

However, only a small number of people may know that the reason why they took Duan Hengye for a physical examination at the first time was just to prove whether he really lost his memory.

Just like what the man said, after a series of interstellar instrument tests, they soon discovered that Duan Hengye had indeed lost his previous memories, but his understanding of mechas and other knowledge was not lost.

Duan Hengye did not speak, and the person on the hospital bed continued: "Who would have thought that you would be the dean of the Machine Research Institute in a flash..."

Because the current position is very close to the man, the foggy medicine surrounding the man also stained Duan Hengye's side.Duan Hengye didn't know what it was, but only knew that it tasted extremely bitter. After standing there for a while, Duan Hengye felt a little dizzy.

Although the old man was a standard interstellar dude when he was young, his skills in knowing people were not bad at all.He saw a bit of discomfort on Duan Hengye's face, then suddenly smiled and said: "Actually, I asked you to come here... I just want to see you." The man showed a loving expression as he spoke. Emoticons come.

Duan Hengye didn't know how he would react if the person standing here was not himself, but the original owner who had been brainwashed.Just combining the things related to this place in his memory, Duan Hengye didn't believe that the person opposite really only wanted to see himself as simple as that.

Although the man in front of him is the nominal head of this huge family, his life is obviously coming to an end now.Living in such a family, Duan Hengye believes that even the head of the family is very likely to turn himself into a bait to attract people for the benefit of the family.It's just... What the hell are they calling themselves here for?

The relationship between Duan Hengye and the royal family and the queen's family is very delicate now, and he has already stopped the long-lasting consulting transaction with the opposite party.But the contact between the two parties has not been completely broken. For example, they will still provide Duan Hengye with that special temporary antidote from time to time, as if reminding him of his identity.

……

"Okay..." The man on the hospital bed waved to Duan Hengye slowly again, because the movement was a little too big, the mist medicine around him was scattered by him, and then some of them rushed towards Duan Hengye's body face.Although he held his breath in time, it was inevitable that Duan Hengye still inhaled part of the medicine powder into his lungs.

Duan Hengye's physical fitness is not very good because of being controlled by drugs all the year round.After inhaling the medicine into his lungs, he had an uncontrollable desire to cough.Duan Hengye immediately turned his body to one side, then coughed forcefully.

"Sorry, Mr. Duke..." After coughing, Duan Hengye turned around and saluted.

"It's okay." The Duke on the hospital bed said with a smile, "You can go to lunch first, you don't have to stay here with me, an old man."

Although he was eager to leave quickly, after hearing what the other party said, Duan Hengye still pretended to refuse, and finally bid farewell to him and left the ward.

Now the news of the duke's serious illness has spread throughout the interstellar world, not only Duan Hengye, but everyone else who has a little connection with this family has also rushed to this planet in the past few days.

Under the guidance of the attendant, Duan Hengye walked through the long and winding corridor to the entrance of the banquet hall.The overall layout of the Queen's family is very retro, and even the wooden doors of the banquet hall are rarely equipped with automatic sensor door opening devices.

After arriving here, the attendant who had been following Duan Hengye immediately stepped forward and pushed the door open.In an instant, the noisy sounds in the banquet hall poured into Duan Hengye's ears.

Although the head of this family is still lying on the hospital bed, this does not prevent everyone from continuing to be chic at the venue.In recent years, the power of the royal family and the aristocracy has been declining, and many offshoot members of the family are also trying to gain new power.

So after the pushers went in, Duan Hengye did not receive the awkward silence he expected, but was surrounded by a few half-familiar faces he had seen before.

The smell of medicine that has not dissipated just now, coupled with the chattering voice in his ears at this time, Duan Hengye is almost as big as two heads.But fortunately, he was originally a "high-cold" person, and Duan Hengye's words from the people around him went in his left ear and out of his right ear, and after a while, those people who were not interesting also left Duan Hengye's side.

This was a buffet banquet. Although Duan Hengye was a little hungry, he was not very interested in the food in front of him.After a while, he walked to a relatively secluded part of the banquet hall, and then brought a snack from the table.

After traveling all the way, Duan Hengye already wanted to eat.He used the small silver fork in his hand to gently scratch the edge of the dessert, and after a while, a sweet and greasy taste radiated from the tip of his tongue.It's not that Duan Hengye doesn't like sweets, it's just that the sweetness is a little too much... Seeing this, he couldn't help but frowned slightly, and then put the things in his hands into the hands of the recycling robot.

This time, there is no activity schedule for Zodiac Star, even Duan Hengye doesn't know how long he will stay here.The lingering smell of medicine on his body, coupled with this overly sweet dessert, made Duan Hengye's mood even worse.Although Duan Hengye was barely familiar with this genus star, but without being informed of the next plan, Duan Hengye didn't know where he should go.So when he thought that he might have to stay on this planet for a while, Professor Duan walked to the table again, and gently picked up the white porcelain plate containing the fruit.

Although the presentation of this plate is very delicate, there is not much stuff inside.

Just as Duan Hengye gently picked up the award plate, a voice suddenly came from behind him. "Professor Duan, good afternoon."

Duan Hengye's hand paused. He was very familiar with this voice, but he couldn't figure out who it was for a while.Although he didn't want to talk to anyone at this banquet, Duan Hengye turned around politely after hearing someone calling him.

The navy blue dress was fitted with a black bow tie, Duan Hengye never thought that the person calling him behind him would be Wen Mujia.Speaking of which, it has been a while since I have seen this "former love rival".

"Good afternoon, Mr. Wen." Duan Hengye also said to the other party.

Wen Mujia held a half-empty wine glass in his hand, and walked towards Duan Hengye with a smile.For a person of his status, his family is inextricably linked with various noble families.Therefore, after removing the surprise at the first moment, Duan Hengye was not surprised that Wen Mujia appeared here.

Duan Hengye remembered that the last time he saw Mu Jia, the other party deliberately set up a small game, trying to trick him.But now, seeing Wen Mujia's expression and reaction...it's as if that incident never happened.Seeing him pretending to be stupid, Duan Hengye, like Wen Mujia, made a simple greeting.

Wen Mujia glanced at the things in Duan Hengye's hand, and then asked: "Why is Professor Duan eating this at noon today?" Although he is not from this family, Wen Mujia has the aura of a host.The man tilted his head slightly and smiled at Duan Hengye again, and then continued to say to him in a joking tone: "If you only eat these, it's time for everyone to spread out."

"..." Duan Hengye really couldn't tell at all what Wen Mujia was trying to do by asking him to say these words.However, as a person who is very afraid of trouble, he still chose to block the other party's mouth with actions in the first place.Duan Hengye gently picked up a small piece of freshly grilled steak from the small table beside him, and then said to Wen Mujia, "Thank you for reminding me."

Wen Mujia didn't seem to expect that Duan Hengye would do such a direct action, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows, but he didn't say anything.

Regardless of the taste of the steak, it smells really good.When the fresh fragrance of the meat came, the smell of medicine around Duan Hengye that had not dissipated so far was also offset a little.But Duan Hengye soon discovered that there was still blood in the steak.

Duan Hengye and Wen Mujia stopped talking, but the other party had no intention of leaving his side.

Fortunately, at this time, the door of the banquet hall was pushed open from the outside again.All the eyes of everyone around turned to that side at the same time, and Wen Mujia was no exception.After seeing his movements, Duan Hengye couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then took the time to put the things in his hands aside.

Because of the presence of people, the banquet hall suddenly became quiet.The place where Duan Hengye is now is a bit remote, so after waiting for a while, he finally saw clearly that the person who suddenly appeared in the banquet hall was the Queen of the Yetian Empire... From the time the woman entered the door, the hall was full of people. There were voices greeting her one after another.

At this time, Wen Mujia also picked up his wine glass again, and looked in the direction of the person coming.Although this banquet hall belongs to a top noble family, its size is no bigger than that of the royal family and the military.The locations of Duan Hengye and Wen Mujia were already very remote, but they were still noticed by the queen at a glance.

Although today's clothes are a little plainer than when he was on the capital star, the dark blue dress worn by the queen is still very conspicuous against the dark formal clothes in the room.

Today's event can be regarded as a private event initiated in the name of the Earl, but everyone who was invited to the event knew his physical condition.Although they didn't feel anything in their hearts, facing the queen, they still pretended to be serious and sad.However, the queen herself seemed not to be affected by her father's illness at all. Before she reached Wen Mujia's place, the queen also raised the wine glass in her hand high.

"His Royal Highness." After the woman came, Wen Mujia respectfully saluted her.After Duan Hengye recalled it for a while, he also greeted the queen of the empire according to his identity.

Just like the last time I saw Wen Mujia, the two of them didn't have a very happy quarrel.The relationship between Duan Hengye and the queen might be even worse... He once threatened this woman at the royal banquet.So seeing the other party's eyes cast on him, Duan Hengye couldn't help feeling a little nervous in his heart.But on the surface, Duan Hengye didn't show his emotions.

As a person who was born in a traditional noble family and became the queen of the empire.The woman in front of her is obviously good at disguising herself. Although her eyes are still sharp, her expression is well controlled.

"Professor Duan..." The queen glanced at her wine glass with a smile, and then said slowly, "You have been here since you were a child, and your father has always raised you as his own child. Even when he was ill, You didn't forget to remind us to ask you to come and see him." The queen's words were sincere, as if the old earl had been thinking about Duan Hengye all the time.

——No, maybe he was really thinking about himself, but the purpose was different from what the queen wanted to express at this time.

Before Duan Hengye could speak, Wen Mujia, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but agree: "The entire interstellar world knows that Professor Duan was adopted by Mr. Earl. Mr. is still caring about Professor Duan, which is really impressive." move."

Hearing this, Duan Hengye couldn't help but let out a silent "hehe" in his heart.

"Yes." The queen nodded and said to Wen Mujia, "Father is especially concerned about Professor Duan's health. If it weren't for his reminder, I might have forgotten to give Professor Duan a 'gift'." Although he didn't say it clearly, Duan Hengye Both the queen and the queen knew that the "gift" she spoke of was a temporary antidote.

Wen Mujia didn't know what Duan Hengye and the queen were talking about, but he felt sensitively that there was definitely something in what they were saying now.

... Seeing this, Wen Mujia suddenly said to Duan Hengye and the queen: "I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness, and Professor Duan, I just came from somewhere else and I was a little hungry, so I just won't bother you two to reminisce about the old days." Said After finishing, the queen nodded to him with satisfaction, and then Wen Mujia left the corner without looking back.

Duan Hengye couldn't help but feel a little funny when he saw the other party's expression of not wanting to stay any longer.

The queen watched Wen Mujia's back with a wine glass, and when he completely disappeared before her eyes, the woman finally turned around.She took a sip of the wine lightly, and then said to Duan Hengye: "Professor Duan, you must have had a bad time a while ago, right?"

The royal family didn't know that Duan Hengye had already made a clone antidote.According to the frequency with which they sent Duan Hengye the antidote from time to time, the queen naturally came to the conclusion that Duan Hengye probably hadn't had a good time recently.Of course, Duan Hengye would not tell the other party what he had in his hands. After the woman's voice fell, Duan Hengye did not answer her question directly, but asked back after a moment of silence: "Is there anything else?"

Duan Hengye's tone was not very gentle, but the queen was not angry this time.She shook her head towards Duan Hengye, and then said: "You and Meng Jinhuai have a good relationship, and I will not obstruct it. But today I still want to remind Professor Duan again, no matter what, you should not forget your identity. Otherwise, we will not It's good, and you're not good at it, are you?"

Duan Hengye fell silent, but in the eyes of the queen, his silence seemed to be a tacit consent.

I only heard the woman continue to say: "It's better to think about it again. If you continue to cooperate, the royal family will not only abandon the past, but also give you a big gift."

"Great gift?" Duan Hengye couldn't help repeating.

"That's right," said the queen, looking up into his eyes, "the real antidote."

It turned out that I was waiting for myself here today... I have to say that what the queen said was indeed very tempting to Duan Hengye.

If she had said this shortly after Duan Hengye crossed into this world, or before Meng Jinhuai invited Lan Jingchi to join the research institute, Duan Hengye might have hesitated for a while.But now Duan Hengye knows very well that with the pharmacy genius described in Lan Jingchi's book, the antidote is only a matter of time.

But as for the royal family, Duan Hengye couldn't say whether they had a real antidote, or whether they gave themselves something re-added.

Although he didn't care about the queen's words in his heart, Duan Hengye still showed a somewhat tangled expression on his face.After seeing his appearance, the queen felt a little relieved.

"Why don't you think about it more carefully?" said the Queen.

Duan Hengye nodded slowly, then cast his gaze to the ground in the distance. "Then I won't bother Professor Duan." Seeing this, the queen smiled at Duan Hengye again, raised her cup, and left.

After she walked away, Duan Hengye's expression immediately returned to the previous extremely calm state.Duan Hengye walked to the small table closest to him again, and then slowly picked up a plate of snacks from which he had left a good impression.In short, if the queen was by his side at this time, he would definitely be surprised by Duan Hengye's current appearance.

There is no schedule for coming to Zodiac Star today, but now Duan Hengye can guess.By the afternoon, the queen would probably call herself elsewhere to discuss in detail.Duan Hengye, who had already decided to continue pretending to resume cooperation, breathed a sigh of relief, and the big stone in his heart finally fell.Even the mediocre snack in my hand is much pleasing to the eye at this moment.

But although I guessed it when I came here, today will definitely not be easy.But after a few minutes, Duan Hengye realized that this day was probably far more exciting than he had imagined before.

Just suddenly, the heavy wooden door of the hall was pushed open from the outside again.Although the quality of the wooden door was good, the person who pushed the door was too rough at this time, and there was a harsh "squeaky" sound in the hall.

Because of this voice, everyone looked at the door in unison.But before he could see anything clearly, almost at the same time, the huge glass windows around the hall also heard the sound of cracking.

……what's going on?

Duan Hengye immediately put down the things in his hand, and then lightly touched the raised weapon on his wrist.

Although I don't know which song this is singing, at least Duan Hengye knows that today's "big show" has finally officially started.

Duan Hengye quickly retreated to a more inconspicuous position.At this time, there are walls on three sides behind him, and only the direction facing him can see the hall.In fact, when Duan Hengye came here just now, he had already observed the terrain.His current position is very good for observing the overall situation of the hall, but it is difficult for the people over there to spot him at a glance.

At the same time as Duan Hengye retreated here, dozens of men in black rushed in from the door and windows.There were not many guests in the banquet hall today. According to Duan Hengye's observation, the number of people in black probably outnumbered the guests at this time...

He slowly undid the cuff buttons.

At this moment, the air in the hall froze, but this quiet state did not last long.After a while, Duan Hengye heard a sharp scream coming from the other side of the hall.Although he couldn't see what it looked like for the time being, he would definitely not admit his mistake. The owner of this voice was Her Royal Highness the Empress of the Yetian Empire.

Immediately afterwards, there was a commotion in the crowd.When Duan Hengye saw it clearly, the queen had already walked out of the crowd with a gun pointed at her.
