There are so many interstellar battleships in the princess fleet, and you actually told me that they disappeared out of thin air and their whereabouts are unknown, and you can't find them?" The second prince Qin Ming looked angrily at his younger brother Qin Hu, who was communicating with him and reporting the situation.
Qin Hu looked melancholy and said helplessly: "I have ordered a large number of interstellar battleships to be deployed to conduct a rigorous search around the galaxy where the princess fleet disappeared, and indeed no trace of them was found."
"Shut up! That's not what I want to hear now!
When I gave you this task before, I gave you countless instructions!
You must kill the little princess Qin Xiaolei, how did you promise me?"
The second prince, Qin Ming, had veins popping out on his face. He paced back and forth, and then pointed at Qin Hu angrily: "Is your arrogance and arrogance showing up again?"
Qin Hu lowered his head with guilt.
If he hadn't wanted to play cat and mouse to kill the princess fleet, perhaps there wouldn't have been any subsequent episodes.
Qin Ming knows his brother best. He is good at everything, but sometimes he tends to fall into old habits on the battlefield.
"You...you..." Qin Ming felt like he was going to be pissed to death by his younger brother.
"Ming'er, okay...Although Ahu is responsible, this is the situation now.
It's useless no matter how much you scold Ahu.
Instead of brothers quarreling here, let's think of a solution.
Moreover, the most important thing now is how to integrate the forces of the Star Empire.
Although we currently have the initiative, there are still many people in the Star Empire who are dissatisfied with us.
We must find a way to consolidate the power before that guy dies, and then let you successfully succeed to the throne!" Concubine Zhen walked out at this time to comfort her son.
When Qin Ming saw his mother coming forward, he did not reprimand his brother anymore, but just glared at him angrily.
Qin Ming calmed down his emotions.
"The search for Qin Xiaolei cannot be delayed, we must find this woman!
In addition, the current situation in the empire.
Among the eight star regions, the ones completely controlled by us include the Starry Star Region and the Blue Star Region.
Close to us are the Snow Swallow Star Region and the Cang Yue Star Region.
Those who have not expressed their attitude include the Zisu Star Region, the Pegasus Star Region, the Chuhe Star Region and the Beifeng Star Region." Qin Ming raised his hand and opened the map of the Star Empire.
"So my plan is a three-pronged approach. The first is to consolidate our relationship with the Xueyan Star Territory and the Cang Yue Star Territory; the second is to win over the Zisu Star Territory and the Pegasus Star Territory through marriage, rewards and other means.
Third, weaken the Chuhe Star Region and Beifeng Star Region, and be prepared to suppress them with force."
"The Chuhe Star Region is the strongest star region, isn't it possible to win over each other?" Concubine Zhen asked worriedly.
Qin Ming smiled coldly: "That old guy Chu Changhe is protecting the queen in his own mansion, his attitude is already obvious.
Although he was a neutral before, now that he has chosen to protect the queen, he is standing on the opposite side of us.
The North Wind Star Territory and the Chuhe Star Territory have always shared their anger.
So these two star regions are two stinking stones that we must trip over."
Concubine Zhen understood her son's thoughts, and she continued: "But if we attack them directly, it will definitely affect our current reputation.
After all, you haven't succeeded to the throne yet, but you are attacking the family that has guarded the border for thousands of years. How will other interstellar forces and big families think?"
"Then I'll force them to fight back first!" Qin Ming said coldly.
"Didn't you have arrangements beforehand to summon Chu Changhe back to the Imperial Capital Star and take the opportunity to put him under house arrest to force the Chu family's fleet in the Chu River Star Region to rebel.
But now, the Chu family fleet is motionless, and your plan has failed.
Is it possible that you still want to kill Chu Changhe in the imperial capital star to force the Chu family fleet to betray? Wouldn't that be like shooting yourself in the foot?" Concubine Zhen said.
Qin Ming said: "I didn't expect that Chu Changhe's granddaughter could be so tolerant.
But my method is not that simple.
And I'm not in a hurry. I'll wait until I gather the Perilla Starfield and the Pegasus Starfield first.
Even if we really start a war with Chuhe Star Region and Beifeng Star Region, we will have the confidence to win quickly!"
"Yes, I have a piece of information here.
When I ambushed the Princess Fleet before, an interstellar fleet of unknown origin came to the rescue and was very powerful.
A mere three hundred interstellar battleships can overwhelm our three legion fleets.
Although the models of those star battleships are unknown, several of them are very similar to several star battleships currently in service in the Xiaolong Galaxy in the North Wind Star Region.
Brother, can this be used as a reason for us to take action?" Qin Hu suddenly thought of this matter.
"Xiaolong Galaxy?" Qin Ming squinted his eyes, recalling the information related to this place.
In his mind, he recalled the young lord who became famous in one battle during the Zerg disaster in the Blue Star Territory.
There is also the guy who jumped two levels and became the youngest Marquis during the Zerg disaster in the North Wind Star Territory.
The most important thing is that it is rumored that he is also the son-in-law of Chenglong Kuai of the Chu family and the future grandson-in-law of Chu Changhe.
The corners of Qin Ming's mouth raised slightly: "This is indeed a good opportunity.
We asked the North Wind Star Territory to hand over this Lord Xiaolong on the grounds that the princess of the Xiaolong Galaxy is suspected of betraying the party!
If the North Wind Star Territory does not have relations with each other, we can take advantage of the situation and mobilize troops against the North Wind Star Territory. If the Chu family dares to send troops for the North Wind Star Territory at this time, it will be a joint crime!
If the Chu family does not send troops, then the Chu family’s brand name will also fall. If the Beifeng Star Territory, which we call brothers and brothers, is not saved, your Chu family will still be the largest family in the Xingyao Empire!"
Concubine Zhen also saw her son's plan from the side, and she sneered: "Then if the North Wind Star Territory hands over this Xiaolong Lord.
Then this person's identity is the future grandson-in-law of the Chu family, which is tantamount to driving a wedge between the Beifeng Star Territory and the Chu River Star Territory.
Wonderful!
Son, when are you going to take action?"
"There's no rush, let's calm down the situation first and deal with the Perilla Star Territory and the Pegasus Star Territory.
Let the cannonballs fly for a while." Qin Ming put his hands behind his back and stared blankly.
He has already begun to fantasize about becoming a new generation of Star Emperor.
…
In a quiet house on the Imperial Capital Star.
"Chu Changhe, come to see the queen." A voice sounded outside a courtyard.
There was no sound in the house.
Chu Changhe called a few more times, but there was still no response. He slowly opened the door.
In the courtyard, a woman with disheveled hair was sitting on a chair, with a holographic video playing in front of her eyes.
The character in the holographic image is the deceased eldest prince.
The slovenly and disheveled woman in front of me is the queen.
Seeing the queen's mental state, Chu Changhe let out a long sigh.
Because of the death of the eldest prince, the queen became depressed and depressed, unwilling to believe the fact that the eldest prince had passed away.
"Queen, please rest assured, you have saved my granddaughter Chu Xuan's life before.
I, Chu Changhe, will not participate in partisanship, but I will remember your kindness.
As long as I, Chu Changhe, am here, no one dares to touch a hair on your head.
Regarding the whereabouts of the little princess, I also secretly sent people to find her, and I will definitely ensure the safety of the little princess." After Chu Changhe finished speaking, he looked at the queen again.
The queen's eyes were still blurry, and she raised her hand to try to touch the eldest prince in the holographic projection, whispering the eldest prince's nickname.
Chu Changhe let out a long sigh and silently exited the courtyard.
