Wu Qiao was also surprised by the emperor's abdication. Before, Wu Qiao always thought that he would meet with Tan Yan—the emperor would definitely not want to give up the throne, and would definitely hope that Tan Yan would come back to fight the fire.
However, the emperor gave up the last fight and saved the last bit of decency.
After Tan Yan received the order, he surrendered immediately. To him, it was like pie falling from the sky.
Darren hesitated, and he hesitated for a long time. After the imperial emperor abdicated, and the battle between the imperial army and the revolutionary army in each star field ended, Wu Qiao immediately mobilized all his troops to prevent the Republic from coming to "support" Daeron's six armies, and wiped them all out on the way. In Ji Yao's words, it was "beaten into a pile of shit". And, with the sudden loss of six armies, the Republic temporarily stopped fighting on the Western Front. The system collapsed, the country changed hands, Tan Yan fell to the revolutionary army, and the army of the Republic could not go to the battlefield. Daeron knew that there was no one to use, and there was no possibility of victory, so he also announced his surrender. Until the end, Wu Qiao didn't know whether Dai Lun ever had the idea of killing himself with the help of the Republic, and then he himself entered the palace.
…
The day after Dai Lun surrendered, Wu Qiao arrived at Capital Star and brought a large number of troops with him.
Although the emperor's abdication was sudden, he handled it very neatly. He notified all the ministers: "You are no longer imperial officials."
The emperor abdicated on his own initiative, and all those in control of the military surrendered. Therefore, without a good excuse and no strength, the old empire was still honest and there was not much trouble.
Wu Qiao handed over to Ji Yao the handling of the old ministers, counselors, and old nobles. He himself organized representatives from all the star domains to discuss with the capital to discuss the establishment of a new government. Most of the representatives of the star field were the top officials of the former star field, who agreed to join the new country before the collapse of the empire, and a small number were designated as temporary officials after the emperor abdicated.
For ten days, they held meetings such as the constitutional assembly, and roughly planned the first step of the constitution.
Then, due to the lack of time, the representatives of all the star fields formed an electoral college. In the election, Wu Qiao was unanimously elected interim head. They plan to organize a nationwide election within one year to elect the official leader and representatives of various parliamentarians.
They also made arrangements for each star field. A star field with only a temporary person in charge should elect a formal person in charge as soon as possible, which is also to accumulate experience for the national election.
The reaction of the people in the new country surprised Wu Qiao again—they were very calm.
As if this was destined to happen, everyone was neither happy nor sad.
Those who were originally happy, and those who were originally sad, all accepted the arrangement of fate in the irreversible torrent.
The new state did not give Wu Qiao too much time to prepare, so he was sworn in hastily.
The day of his inauguration was originally cold and windy, but the moment Wu Qiao stepped into the venue and saw Tan Yan's figure, his body immediately had a rush of blood, and his face and toes, which were numb from the cold, regained consciousness.
He thought: It turns out that it is true that you don’t feel cold when you are excited.
Tan Yan's face was very tired, but his brows and eyes were bright.
Wu Qiao stared blankly at Tan Yan, Tan Yan still seemed so conspicuous among the messy banners.
How long has it been since I saw a real person? Wu Qiao didn't need to count at all, he knew that a whole year and three months had passed.
No, don't say I haven't seen a real person, I haven't even heard the voice, I haven't even seen the text.
Wu Qiao's heart was pounding, as if it was about to jump out of his chest.
In the new country, Tan Yan lost the title of marshal, but he still holds important positions, and is one of the few important roles in the army after Wu Qiao and the Minister of Defense. This was the best result Wu Qiao had worked so hard to achieve for him, and it was also because the new country was still in urgent need of the talent of Tan Yan.
"Hey... there's business, don't read it yet." Ji Yao reminded Wu Qiaodao.
How could Wu Qiao not understand.
He forced himself to look back, although he wanted to look in that direction again like a cat scratching in his heart, but told himself that now was not the time to look left and right, Wu Qiao restrained himself a little irritable, and it took a lot of effort to hold on for a second.
At the hour, the music played.
After the ceremony, the Star Territory representative reported on the election, and then it was Wu Qiao's turn to take the oath and make his first official speech in his new capacity.
Wu Qiao stretched the carpet to the center of the stage, and looked at all the new government personnel below, feeling panic for the first time.
He slowly said: "I have experienced many important moments... But never once, I have been as panicked as I am today-not when I entered the military academy, not when I joined the army, not when I went out with the team, not when I was promoted to lieutenant general Not when I gave up the army, not when I led the revolutionary army, not when I was approaching the palace... For this call of the country, I was honored to obey, but I also wondered in my mind whether I could take on such a heavy responsibility. I am grateful to all Everyone trusts and invites everyone to judge.
…
As I take the oath of office, I ask the people of the nation to assist me. The foundation of a country lies not in one individual, but in the people. Today, we sweep away the poison of imperial power and establish a democratic system. It's not the end, it's just the beginning. In the future, we will face a series of challenges, and a nascent government will never be able to go smoothly.
Today, however, let us temporarily forget about those thorns and thorns, and celebrate our victory to our heart's content. "
After finishing this paragraph, Wu Qiao let out a long breath.
The most important inaugural speech has all been delivered. Although he has experienced many storms, Wu Qiao is still a little uneasy on this occasion.
He doubted again and again, could he do well
He seldom doubts himself, but this time is nothing compared to the past.
What gave him some peace of mind was that he was surrounded by Tan Yan and Ji Yao, and of course many members of the revolutionary army.
Later, the representative delivered a welcome speech, and a simple ceremony came to an end.
There is no lunch process in the ceremony, and the participants of the ceremony will leave directly.
"..." Wu Qiao controlled himself, and walked towards Tan Yan in the dim light.
When he reached his position, he stood still, looked at the people on both sides, and tried his best to suppress his emotions: "Tan Yan, I... have something to talk to you, you and I go back to the office."
Tan Yan's expression was calm: "Oh."
"..."
"What are you going to talk about?"
"Of course..." Wu Qiao bit his lower lip, "The country's army and war strategy."
Tan Yan nodded: "Okay."
Wu Qiao took Tan Yan all the way to the office directly.
After closing the door, he stared at each other.
Similarly, Tan Yan's bright black eyes were also staring at him.
The two of them seemed to be testing each other a little bit, because they hadn't contacted each other for fifteen months, and neither of them could be sure that the other was still the same.
Wu Qiao thought to himself, in those movies and TV dramas that Yajiu watched, the male and female protagonists would hug each other tightly after seeing each other more than ten years later... Isn't it a bit unrealistic
A few seconds later, Tan Yan broke the silence and asked, "Well... the new country, don't you need to kneel?"
In the past in the empire, one had to kneel.
Wu Qiao shook his head: "No need."
Tan Yan turned his head and thought for a while, then asked: "So, is there any other etiquette for the head of state? There is no etiquette, and I feel very used to it."
"Yes." Wu Qiao stared at Tan Yan.
"What is it?"
After all, Wu Qiao couldn't bear it anymore, his breathing was a little rough, and he said to Tan Yan, "Kiss."
"..."
"Hurry up if you understand."
Tan Yan chuckled: "Is it really good for the person in charge of a country to be so hungry?"
"Stop talking nonsense..." Wu Qiao took a step closer, "Tan Yan, stop teasing me... I really miss you."
Before he could finish his sentence, his lips were kissed.
—Tan Yan kissed him quickly, like a superficial touch.
Wu Qiao stared blankly at Tan Yan.
Tan Yan smiled, as gentle as before. He leaned closer again, blew lightly, and then stuck it up again.
"..." Wu Qiao moved his lips, feeling a softness that he hadn't tasted for a long time, like a spring breeze.
After a while, Tan Yan stuck out his tongue and carefully outlined the shape of Wu Qiao's lips twice.
Wu Qiao also opened the gap between his teeth, chasing and sucking carefully a few times, and then brought the tip of his tongue closer to touch the other's.
Soon, they hugged and developed into a deep kiss.
Wu Qiao's head was numb and his ears were buzzing.
After a deep kiss, Tan Yan asked Wu Qiao: "The etiquette of the new country, there should be nothing else between superiors and superiors except kissing?"
"and also."
"What else?"
"And..." Wu Qiao could sense his body's reaction, he said, "And... go to bed."
"Hey… "
Wu Qiao didn't care about Tan Yan, and just stretched out his hand to untie the opponent's belt.
He wants to hug each other, preferably without clothes, so that the distance is the closest.
Then, he bit down the button of Tan Yan's trousers with his teeth, peeled off the last layer, and the tip of his nose directly brushed against the other's stiffness.
The color of Tan Yan's pupils suddenly darkened. He picked Wu Qiao up and let him lie on the office desk.
The other party didn't do much lubrication, and Wu Qiao felt a little pain.
While moving, Tan Yan kissed Wu Qiao's shoulder vigorously.
"... Mmm." Wu Qiao closed his eyes, concentrating on understanding.
Suddenly, he felt something was wrong.
Stretch out your hand to touch it, and your shoulders are a little wet.
"...Tan Yan?!" Wu Qiao's voice was full of surprise, "Are you crying?!"
In Wu Qiao's heart, that person is always proud, supernatural and omnipotent, and will never cry, no matter what happens.
Tan Yan shook his head behind him: "No." The tip of her hair brushed Wu Qiao's neck, making it itchy.
Wu Qiao struggled to turn his head to look, but was held down by Tan Yan: "Don't look."
"..." Wu Qiao turned his head back and buried it between his arms.
The body was moved rhythmically, and the eyes rubbed against the arms.
Wu Qiao felt that this posture seemed to irritate the eyes, and there seemed to be tears on his own wrists.
