The alloy door opened silently, and Yang Ming stood warily outside the door frame.
Soft light shone out, revealing a spacious living room, with a beautiful figure sitting in the corner of the twist-shaped sofa.
Is this the princess?
There were many messy thoughts running through Yang Ming's heart, but the male instinct did not arise.
The amount of information he just received was too much.
There are ordinary people inside, which means there are no toxic gases here.
Yang Ming walked into the room and closed the alloy door.
The girl looked up and looked over. Her pair of ice-blue eyes were particularly eye-catching. Her long, soft golden hair was unadorned and spread around her chest and behind her back.
When an observer looks at her, the first thing he should be attracted by is her eyes;
Hanxiang and Hanyin's eyes suddenly widened.
Daphne shook her head: "I just came of age two days ago, and I got my father's order that day."
[A news hot search appeared across the empire, saying that the White Ghost was about to have a political marriage with the daughter of an emperor.]
Daphne raised her hand to her forehead and couldn't help complaining: "I don't quite understand your thoughts? Why should you confuse something as important as your personal future with your own machismo? I don't care how many mistresses you have,
This is normal in the aristocratic circle. Correspondingly, you don't need to interfere with my private life, I will maintain the decency between us."
Yang Ming opened his eyes alertly and jumped directly to the bed. The dream scenes in his mind were directly diluted.
Daphne nodded slightly: "I have obtained your contact information. Before you leave the Emperor Star, we must enter the palace. No matter what, please do not disobey my father. He will never have any trouble when eradicating hidden dangers.
Any hesitation.”
Reject this marriage?
The call was established, and Catherine appeared in front of Yang Ming wearing her golden mask.
"Your lover should understand your situation."
Hanyin and Hanxiang, who were dressed in maid uniforms, bowed their heads to Yang Ming, and then staggered their bodies to the left and right. Two teams of palace maids in long skirts with high slits bowed at the same time, and then they carried several trays and pushed several rows of clothes.
He walked gently into the house.
Yang Ming nodded and looked into her eyes: "Your Majesty, give me two paths, cultivate me, or destroy me."
The most impressive scene in the dream was of a mimic human slowly walking out of a mercury-like lake. The metallic liquid on his body slowly dissipated, revealing Catherine's beautiful face and exquisite figure. Just when he wanted to get close to her
At that moment, she pulled out the ship-cutting knife from behind...
His Majesty the Emperor really gave him a big problem.
"Please don't underestimate any member of the Sherman family. Also, this is the smell of shower gel, you guys have no common sense."
Yang Ming breathed a sigh of relief, took a shirt and trousers and put them on, walked over and opened the door.
Only then did Yang Ming notice the obvious care she put into her outfit.
Director Ino's words made the question marks on Yang Ming's head pop up like mushrooms after the rain.
"I mean, I have my own mission, and so do you. If possible, maybe we should put aside our feelings and focus on our own ideals... For now, they are urging me."
The power of the empire, my own feelings.
"It's nothing, I just felt a little emotional suddenly," Catherine smiled, "Politics is the art of compromise."
"well enough."
Daphne's face full of collagen was twitching slightly.
Daphne analyzed calmly:
The only thing that Yang Ming could comfort himself with was that Daphne had just grown up and was not corrupted. Yang Ming didn't smell anything bad about her.
'Human emotions are amazing, you have to make the most of them.'
"What about you? Since we don't call, you may be in a very embarrassing situation in the future."
"You are already standing on the opposite side of the aristocracy. The marriages between aristocratic families have become a huge and complex relationship system.
"At that time, you will face the wrath of half of the noble class, and those princes and dukes will attack you from all sides.
Beauty is beautiful, but Yang Ming just wants to stay away from this kind of girl.
"Daphne, Daphne Sherman."
To be honest, her own charm is already attractive enough that it is easy for people to ignore her evening dress.
"who?"
"Maybe I'm still a commoner at heart," Yang Ming said with a smile, "so I think our marriage is unlikely to succeed."
——Before Yang Ming returned to the Emperor Star, she had been transferred by the super-modifier organization.
"Do you also have a boyfriend?" Yang Ming asked.
"Well," Yang Ming walked to the opposite side of her, sank into the sofa, and raised his hand to rub his forehead, "What do you call it?"
"I've lost everything.
"Please take a seat, Lord Hamton."
Yang Ming stood up. He wanted to see if he could get Daphne to refuse, so he stared at Daphne and said deliberately:
"I really can't accept the aristocratic form of marriage. If you want to be my wife, we must first establish a relationship. Please give me some time to think about it.
She was sitting in front of a porthole. She must have just returned from a mission. At this moment, she slowly took off her mask, and turned her head to look at both sides. After making sure that no one was there, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Yang Ming could see a bit of nervousness under her pretended calm expression.
"By the way Hanton," Catherine said suddenly, "If necessary, I want to wait until you leave the Emperor Star to talk about our affairs."
Yang Ming cleared his throat, immediately sat up, and put his fingers on the corners of his mouth to form a smile.
"Catherine, what happened to you today?"
The quasi-ancient god's life form also needs to rest in order to maintain a good mental state. Moreover, Yang Ming received too much information today, which also made Yang Ming's head feel dizzy.
As the observer's line of sight expands, her beautiful face is easily captured;
He grabbed the communicator and took a look, feeling a little guilty for no reason.
She seems to be more than just a vase.
Daphne sat there thinking quietly.
Daphne frowned and said: "To put it simply, you put forward your conditions. You want me to abide by my obligations as husband and wife, while you go out and wander around? With all due respect, this is a bit unfair."
Yang Ming frowned and looked at the image left by Catherine, and saw the slightly lowered corners of her mouth.
Yang Ming shrugged: "If my nominal wife has an intimate relationship with other men, it will also touch my ridiculous and sensitive self-esteem."
"My Lord Earl, this is breakfast cooked for you by His Highness himself. Please enjoy it."
'Now the Sherman family wants to absorb him. In the next hundred years, the galaxy will usher in several major reshuffles and violent turmoil. He can protect the empire to a certain extent. I chose you because you are smart enough.
, can become his shackles.
"I respect you very much. You are the hero who prevented the empire from falling into the crisis of the Great Recession."
He held the communicator, looked at Catherine's profile picture, stroked it gently with his fingers, and thought about what he should say to her, but unless he directly rebelled against the royal family, he would not be able to appease her hurt heart.
"Sorry," Yang Ming immediately realized that his words might be a bit rude, "I'm not targeting you. You know, I have a girlfriend and we have a good relationship. You are an outstanding woman, at least in terms of appearance.
."
Daphne thought for a few seconds: "I can't figure out what my father is thinking, but in my opinion, it will be beneficial to you if we establish a marriage relationship, Lord Earl."
Isn't that too childish?
"Of course, I have lost these now. The only thing I am thinking about now is how to live a life that is destined to be empty as much as possible."
what happened?
Tell your father the truth about today's conversation?
"Hanton, how about being on the Emperor Star?"
She really didn't expect it.
"Please have no doubt, history shows that this is a common method used by the privileged class.
Ding dong, ding dong~
The doorbell of the guest room suddenly rang.
Catherine smiled softly: "I'm on a mission. I couldn't chat with you originally, but I suddenly wanted to see you... Go to bed early, I'm being called over there."
"Your Majesty really posed a problem for me, the Sherman family..."
Yang Ming blinked and bowed slightly to Daphne:
"Happy birthday, your beautiful Highness... Also, the perfume is nice."
"well--"
"Turning serious topics into entertainment, desensitizing sensitive issues, quietly completing cultural degradation, and then euphemistically calling it: entertainment for all."
I am a princess of the most powerful empire in the galaxy, a girl who has just come of age and has a pretty good appearance. She takes the initiative to persuade an honorary earl to marry her, but the other party says that he cannot let go of those lovers after marriage...
Hanxiang's timid voice immediately sounded: "It's me, us, your personal maids, Hanyin and Hanxiang."
"The environment I grew up in also taught me that love is just a ridiculous cloak of human desire. When you have power, you can have everything.
"Okay, please pay attention to your safety."
"A superficial marriage is your best choice, Lord Earl," Daphne said softly, "Or, if you can find a way to make me fall in love with you in the future, then I will try my best to maintain the happiness of our future marriage.
"
Daphne asked softly.
Yang Ming wondered: "Why do you feel so weird? Are you being stimulated again?"
Yang Ming's communicator vibrated several times.
"I don't want to treat you like this, so I will think of other ways to gain His Majesty's trust in me."
"Yeah?"
The girl said softly, then stroked her skirt and slowly sat back down.
"It's indeed cruel," Yang Ming said in a deep voice, "I also encountered a more difficult matter. The emperor wanted to make me surrender completely and gave me some conditions."
But when the observer's eyes glide over her thin eyebrows, pretty nose, and light lips, they will unconsciously return to her eyes, wanting to see clearly how many stars are hidden in her eyes.
…
"Well, it's cruel, isn't it?" Catherine sighed, "That's the fate of super-changers."
The environment in which Emilia grew up determines that she is a simple princess, and what she really thinks about is how to benefit the people. With her brother protecting her, she is the most carefree girl in the Luofeng Empire.
What would his father say to himself?
Daphne could completely imagine the tone and modifiers her father would use to describe her incompetence and cowardice.
Yang Ming asked: "Do you think this matter between us was just a whim, or has it been arranged for a long time?"
Then, Daphne looked at Yang Ming again and said softly:
Yang Ming fell asleep without realizing it. At night, he had a dream, in which he dreamed of a civilization that mimicked human beings.
"My Lord Earl, what color do you personally prefer? Of course, this is not important. Our Highness likes plain clothes. You can choose one of these pieces as a dress for today's outing."
"Well, this is just my personal opinion."
Yang Ming sighed, lying on the soft bed like a big character, with Daphne's beautiful figure constantly flashing before his eyes.
"Love is just a non-essential option in life for me.
His voice was captured in a targeted manner and transmitted outside the door.
"Do you know everything?"
Yang Ming was already surrounded by maids, who began to measure his measurements.
In the middle of the night, Yang Ming returned to the surface hotel where he stayed, smelling a little drunk.
Yang Ming thought for a few seconds and decided to tell Catherine about the marriage granted by His Majesty the Emperor, but when the words came to his lips, they changed again:
"Today I went to the Dimension Ascension Laboratory and witnessed the dimension ascension experiment."
The girl's lips were slightly open, and her voice completely matched her beauty, but the volume was a bit low.
Hanxiang said hurriedly: "These are all the closest maids to Her Highness Daphne. How can you..."
"Uncle..."
Daphne nodded slightly: "Actually, you are not my type, and this is indeed a problem... What should Captain Catherine do?"
'Daphne, when facing the white ghost, don't treat him as an ordinary imperial noble, try to lower your status. He is an incredible life form.
"I also can't disobey my father's order. Maybe we can consider using a political marriage model to get married in name only and not affect each other's lives."
"Why?" Daphne was puzzled.
By marrying the princess, he will be able to gain a foothold in the Sherman Empire and become the emperor's son-in-law. With the aura of a hero of the empire, he will gain tremendous power in a short period of time.
One hundred percent military power belongs to the imperial power?
'He was stimulated by the Empire's total defense system.'
"When my father told me that I needed to marry you to consolidate your position in the imperial aristocracy, I had already lost my right to inherit the throne.
Yang Ming sighed and looked at the ceiling slightly lost in thought.
"It's beneficial?" Yang Ming said with a smile, "Can you tell me more specifically?"
Buzz, buzz!
"Are you okay...why are there so many people?"
Director Ino suddenly smiled with wrinkles on his old face.
He explained: "If I am determined to get married, I would prefer it to be a substantial marriage. Of course, I am still thinking about how to refuse His Majesty's kindness."
There is a difference between an imperial princess and an imperial princess.
Daphne fell into silence, her expression full of gloom.
However, Yang Ming vaguely felt that the girl beside him seemed to have made up his mind.
——Of course, using appearance to classify people is not a civilized behavior in itself.
"If my father allows me to marry a direct descendant of a hereditary duke, I will gain the support of this family, which will give me precious and rare external resources of the Emperor Star.
The video invitation sent by Catherine is a special communication device for the two of them. It is extremely expensive to build. The advantage is that it can communicate instantly in every corner of the galaxy.
Catherine thought carefully and did not say anything more. Instead, she said: "This is what you told me. Sometimes we have to choose to be patient. Even if it is something against our will, we can do it if it is for our own longer-term goals."
."
"Thanks."
They are just a few mistresses, and it shouldn't be too difficult to get them.
Hanyin and Hanxiang looked at the door.
Yang Ming frowned and said, "I don't want to abandon my lover."
Yang Ming pointed to the top of his head and thought that cuckolds were not popular in the empire.
"Aren't we... feeling pretty good now?"
After saying that, he turned and walked towards the door. When he opened the door, he saw the figure of Director Ino.
"You now have the power given by my father, and you are invincible against the nobles. But when you enter a fixed job, your father finds a new tool... It may make you mind to say this, but that is the fact.
"My Lord Earl, if you are fully prepared, please initiate a call request to His Highness, and you can use this device."
The alloy door of the room slowly closed, and Daphne finally relaxed and leaned on the sofa cushions, quietly lost in thought.
"If we get married, you are bound to sacrifice something, including your dignity as a wife.
She stood up slowly.
Moreover, Yang Ming had a premonition that the old emperor had cleaned up the Council of Elders and restored his judicial power and the power to intervene in daily political affairs at any time. The next step might be to go to the military headquarters to find a sense of presence.
Is the royal family so impatient to start hyping it up?
She was thinking whether her understanding of the strength of the existing political power in the galaxy was slightly misaligned.
"Life is never empty," Yang Ming said, "However, I can also understand your mood after your ideals are shattered... Maybe we can have a good discussion on this issue. I really can't accept the form of nominal marriage."
But Yang Ming could feel that Daphne was the kind of ambitious royal daughter.
Daphne grew up in a competitive environment. What she wants is power, fame, and status. In the final analysis, what she cares about is her own dignity and dignity.
The corners of Yang Ming's mouth twitched slightly.
"First of all, we haven't established a marriage relationship yet, and then, I'm now thinking about how to find a way to get the best of both worlds, instead of sacrificing and giving up."
Yang Ming's impression of this princess immediately changed.
Daphne is indeed very beautiful. Among the girls Yang Ming has seen, the mature Valkyrie and Mimili can rival her in terms of beauty.
“Including but not limited to, using online public opinion to create your black spots, causing you to lose your popular base, turning your insect-killing achievements into entertainment, and causing you to lose your superhero image in the hearts of the people.
Catherine reached out and hung up the communication.
"Marriage in name only? I don't like having green hair on my head."
Otherwise, why would the old emperor choose Atero to take over the Military Intelligence Bureau?
The problem in the military department should also be huge, perhaps involving system-wide corruption. However, the old emperor's purpose was not to destabilize the military department, but to allow his cronies to gain substantial military power.
"She's really used to her!" Yang Ming frowned and scolded, "I haven't asked her about the hot topics yet, so now she's doing this to me! Why are you still standing there? Come here and help lift her."
Yang Ming sent a message of greetings to Catherine. After waiting for more than half an hour, he felt drowsy, but he waited for a text message from Lu.
Snapped!
Yang Ming snapped his fingers, his eyes filled with red light. Each of the maids held their foreheads and fell to the ground crookedly.
Daphne seemed to be in a dilemma, lowering her head and thinking, wrapping her fingers around two strands of hair.
What's the matter?
Daphne whispered:
Her posture is very beautiful. She is just sitting in an ordinary posture, but she exudes a natural elegance. Her skin is as white as a porcelain doll, and her slightly long neck and her bud-like collarbones coincidentally depict the most perfect bones of a woman.
structure.
They had dinner together with Director Ino. Daphne behaved very coldly in front of Director Ino, but before Yang Ming left, she took the initiative to see Yang Ming off and supported him symbolically.
Yang Ming's arm.
"Cough, cough!"
There were several dry coughs in the corridor, and a beautiful girl in a princess dress appeared outside the door frame. The cloth fan in her hand was opened, covering her pink lips.
