Marshal’s Cannon Fodder Spouse [Transmigration]

Chapter 89

Views:

Time passed quickly day by day. In the repeated and calm days of Interstellar, Nan Zhuxing was still as busy as before, and the progress of various tasks of the Mecha Research Institute had never slowed down. At the same time, the capital of Ye Tian Empire was still as bustling and bustling as ever, and there would be a new banquet opening every few days.

The most well-known identity of the former Duan Hengye, in addition to the dean of the research institute, there is also a "scientist adopted by the Queen's family" orphan label.

In fact, the original owner has always maintained a relatively close relationship with the Queen's family - especially before marriage. After marriage, although the original owner has reduced the number of activities related to the Queen's family, he still shows his face in the activities there from time to time.

After careful calculation, it seems that since Duan Hengye entered "Dumping the Stars", he suddenly cut off contact with the Queen's family. Of course, Duan Hengye would often be sent invitations from there, but he would always refuse for various reasons.

But this time, Duan Hengye finally encountered a reason that he couldn't refuse.

The father of the current Empress of the Yetian Empire, Duan Hengye's nominal "adopted father", suddenly fell ill and contacted Duan Hengye directly, saying that he wanted to see him.

In this era, "sickness" is a very distant thing for most people, and some people don't even know what it is like to feel sick for a lifetime. As the father of the current queen, the old duke has been raised with delicious food and drink all his life. Due to Duan Hengye, the other party's age has already exceeded the average life expectancy of people in the interstellar era.

But no matter how rich, no one can resist the laws of nature.

Now the duke is suddenly ill, and the news has spread throughout the interstellar space. Everyone knows what it means to be sick at this age.

Although Duan Hengye and the Queen's family no longer communicated in private, the two sides still maintained an apparent peace. For most of the people in the interstellar space who don't know the truth, although Duan Hengye has made great achievements, he still has the label of "good luck was picked up by the first noble family of the empire".

At the same time that the Queen's family notified Duan Hengye to return to the zodiac, they widely reported this incident on their own media. In those reports, they directly accepted the invitation for Duan Hengye.

Although it was a non-public event, those reports still mobilized the curiosity of the entire interstellar.

In fact, no matter whether they released news in advance or not, as long as they didn't completely rip off their face with the royal family, Duan Hengye would go to this event - after all, it's not a good time to have a superficial standoff with the other party. .

Just after seeing the large-scale reports that appeared at the same time, Duan Hengye's already tense nerves immediately became more sensitive.

The zodiac star of the Queen's family was not at all close to the institute, and Duan Hengye had to pass through most of the Yetian Empire's territory to reach his destination.

For him, this is the longest interstellar voyage since crossing over.

As a top noble family in Ye Tian Empire, if you want to go to the star of the Queen family, you must also follow the strict regulations there. For example, Meng Jinhuai, the imperial marshal with military power, cannot go there at will. If he wants to go to the Queen's family star, he must apply to the other party several months in advance, or wait for their active invitation.

Of course Meng Jinhuai did not receive an invitation this time, and even according to the laws of the empire, the number of staff around Duan Hengye was reduced.

At this time, Duan Hengye was sitting on his own private starship according to the regulations. The interior decoration style here was much more comfortable than the military starship. But despite this, Duan Hengye still had no intention of relaxing.

Duan Hengye sat at the desk by the window, with a brain full of data in front of him. Very unusually, as a "workaholic", Duan Hengye was rarely distracted this time. After looking at the document in front of him for a while, his thoughts could not help but fly elsewhere.

I don't know how long it took, Duan Hengye's light brain gently sounded a sound - it turned out that someone was sending an application to him outside the lounge of the starship.

After glancing at the time, Duan Hengye stood up from his seat. Now that the starship has only a few hours left to reach its destination, it's time to change. Not long after pressing the door button, Duan Hengye's assistant Ye Pu walked in together with a robot.

"Professor Duan, this is your dress for today." Ye Pu nodded slightly towards Duan Hengye, then glanced at the black formal dress held in the robot's hands. Going to the zodiac star of the queen family, just like going to the capital star, needs to abide by certain norms. Although Duan Hengye didn't need to wear a formal dress because it was a private event held within the family this time, such an all-black formal attire still made people feel extremely depressed just at a glance.

Duan Hengye nodded, then walked towards the lounge connected to the office with his formal attire. The suit he was holding at this moment was similar to the suits on Earth, but also slightly different. Its style is more rigid, and it does not look like it is worn by nobles, but should belong to the clergy.

Although he didn't like it, Duan Hengye still quickly changed his clothes. With a black suit and a black shirt, he was trapped in this thick black at this time.

Looking at himself in the dressing mirror, Duan Hengye pushed open the door and walked out. After working for such a long time, Duan Hengye and Ye Pu were already very familiar with each other. Under normal circumstances, the two of them would have a chat from time to time between work. But this time, after seeing Duan Hengye's face that was obviously much more serious than before, Ye Pu didn't talk to him, but withdrew directly.

The sound insulation of the starship was very good. After Ye Pu and the robot went out, Duan Hengye's ear was a little terrifyingly quiet. He stood in the center of the study for a while, then walked over to Guangnao and glanced at the route map.

Because it has gradually approached the Queen's family star, the speed of the starship is limited and slows down more and more.

Seeing this, Duan Hengye sat back at his desk again, and then slowly opened the drawer. In the white space, a few silver pearl-sized "buttons" lay quietly. Duan Hengye gently took them out, then rolled up his sleeves.

He picked up those "buttons" and put them lightly on his wrist. But in the blink of an eye, the silver "button" gave birth to several thin metal vines, tightly wrapping Duan Hengye's wrist.

This belongs to the same series of weapons as the "Hidden Arrow" that Duan Hengye had shown before, but it is smaller and more lethal. After securing all the "buttons", Duan Hengye pulled down his sleeves and carefully buttoned the cufflinks.

Because this dress is relatively heavy and conservative in style. By this time, from the appearance alone, it was impossible to find any abnormality on Duan Hengye's wrist. Although he was a visitor with a special status, Duan Hengye still had to go through security checks before he could board the zodiac star. Although the things he is wearing now look simple, they can easily escape the most high-end and sophisticated detection instruments in the interstellar space—this is something that Duan Hengye has already tested on Nanzhuxing over and over again.

It seems that the more technologically advanced the era is, the easier it is for people to be superstitious about technology. The weapon in Duan Hengye's hand can escape all special rays of light, but if he touches it directly, he can definitely feel the abnormality. It's just that in this era, people have long forgotten the role of humans, and instead gave machines an unimaginable sense of trust.

After all the miniature weapons were installed, Duan Hengye sat back in his seat. At this time, it was still a while before the starship reached its destination, but Duan Hengye's heart finally calmed down.

Just when Duan Hengye was about to meditate and work, he suddenly received a message from Meng Jinhuai in his brain.

During this period of time, as long as Heng Ye and Meng Jinhuai were not on the same planet, they would send messages to each other when they had time. The content inside is almost unrelated to work, but full of daily trivial matters.

As the owner of Nan Zhuxing, Meng Jinhuai knew better than anyone that Duan Hengye could not refuse this trip this time. But it may be unimaginable that Meng Jinhuai is also the only person around Duan Hengye who has persuaded him. But who is Duan Hengye? As long as he makes a decision, no one can persuade him. Although Meng Jinhuai had uncharacteristically made suggestions that were not in the interests of Nan Zhuxing, Duan Hengye finally boarded the huge starship flying to the Queen's zodiac star.

Although the decision has been officially made for a long time, even Duan Hengye is about to arrive at his destination at this time. But in the news, Meng Jinhuai's words were still full of concern. Although Meng Jinhuai is not as taciturn as Duan Hengye, he is definitely a person who has nothing to do with the word "talking".

But today, he sent an unusually large number of messages to Duan Hengye. In addition to his daily life today, there is even the pet of his little nephew.

As a top student who has received all-round education of the interstellar standard, Meng Jinhuai's language organization ability is also first-class. His tone is very ordinary at first glance, but after reading more, you will feel an indescribable warmth between the lines.

Looking at it, Duan Hengye couldn't help but laugh.

Although Nan Zhuxing could see Duan Hengye's real-time location, Duan Hengye still shared his coordinates with Meng Jinhuai. It didn't take long for Duan Hengye to receive a bunch of reminders from the other party.

Although the speed of the starship was slow, Duan Hengye no longer felt that the journey was difficult in this simple communication. It wasn't until a long time later that the starship sounded a reminder that the destination was about to be reached, and Duan Hengye turned his attention away from his light brain.

"If you have any questions, remember to call urgently." Meng Jinhuai said finally.

The positioning device that Duan Hengye carried also had an emergency call function. After seeing the message from the other party, Duan Hengye couldn't help but reach out and touch the location of the device. Then, as usual, he gave Meng Jinhuai a "hmm." It seemed that he was not going to some zodiac star of the Queen's family, but went to work in a research institute as usual.

The starship finally arrived at its destination. The size of the Queen's family star is not large. From a high altitude, it looks like a huge garden planet. Although the original owner spent a long time here in his youth, today is the first time Duan Hengye has come to the Queen's family. Although he has a lot of memory in his brain, everything here is still fresh to him.

Naturally, Duan Hengye also discovered some details that he hadn't noticed before. For example, in the hemisphere that I saw at this time, there were almost no "civilian buildings". You must know that even the capital star where the royal family is located has large urban settlements...

Duan Hengye's observation did not last long. As the height of the starship gradually decreased, the scene in front of him became larger and larger. But after a while, Duan Hengye could no longer see the boundaries of the planet. In front of him is a palace-like building that stretches like a mountain. If he hadn't been in it at this time, Duan Hengye would even think that the scenery in front of him was all composed of CG.

Thinking about it carefully, the original owner could see the same scenery when he came to the Queen's family, but he never paid any special attention to it.

Duan Hengye's thinking did not last long. After the starship landed steadily, he followed the procedure. Since today is a private event, there are not many people on the starship dock at this time.

Seeing Duan Hengye come down, a man in a gray formal suit came over, he bowed slightly to Duan Hengye, and then said, "Hello, Professor Duan."

"Hello." Duan Hengye also nodded gently towards him.

Now that they have officially reached the star of the Queen's family, all members of Nanzhuxing except Duan Hengye are not allowed to move freely. Including Ye Pu, they were all left on the starship.

Immediately afterwards, the man in gray who had spoken earlier said to Duan Hengye, "Sorry, Professor Duan, here is the routine security check." Then he started to use the special light beam on his brain to shine at Duan Hengye.

Although the words are still polite and polite, the man's voice just fell, and before Duan Hengye could react, he turned on the security check beam. In an instant, a dazzling blue light curtain fell on Duan Hengye's body, and he couldn't help frowning.

As Duan Hengye's assistant, Ye Pu also saw this scene on the starship from a distance. However, because he knew that today's situation was special, although he was extremely dissatisfied after seeing it, he still didn't say anything.

Although I know that the things on my wrist have been tested more than once, there must be no problem. But when that beam of light suddenly fell on him, Duan Hengye couldn't help but get nervous. His fingers bent slightly towards the palm of his hand, and then slowly rubbed the fabric at the cuff with his fingertips.

Duan Hengye's movements were very concealed, and no one present noticed. And after he stretched his fingers, the light finally closed. Seeing that there was no abnormality in Duan Hengye, the attribute staff made a "please" action to Duan Hengye again, and then took him to the hovering device that was parked on the side.

At this time, Duan Hengye was walking away from his starship step by step. The nervousness that was initially caused by the security check has stabilized during this unusual journey. Accompanied by the staff of the Queen's family, Duan Hengye stepped onto the levitator. If it were anyone else, 80% of them would feel a sense of embarrassment being "escorted". But at this time, in the eyes of Ye Pu from a distance, Duan Hengye's figure was still so calm.

As a staff member next to Duan Hengye, Ye Pu was extremely nervous today. But after seeing Duan Hengye's calm look, he finally wasn't as nervous as he was at the beginning. Seeing the hovercraft take off, Ye Pu finally returned to the starship. Although they cannot enter the zodiac at will, it does not mean that they can rest during this time.

Ye Pu turned and walked to another cabin of the starship, and then said to the staff inside: "Now start detailed monitoring."

In fact, what Meng Jinhuai didn't tell Duan Hengye was that at the same time he agreed to call the other party to go to the Queen's Star, he also gave Ye Pu and the rest of Nanzhuxing's staff an order to go out of the star directly in violation of the rules when necessary. ship.

After all, this was the place where the original owner had been here more than once. After the hovercraft flew out a certain distance, he felt more and more familiar with the scenery around him. Duan Hengye's eyes have been staring at the window, looking at the green plants or buildings that are constantly flying.

The staff member who boarded the hovercraft with Duan Hengye has not stopped talking since he got up. While looking at the scenery below, the man kept reminding Duan Hengye with words—this was the place where he lived for a short time.

In fact, these words appear to be "close-up" on the surface, but in fact they are also a "threat".

—The staff member in gray is reminding Duan Hengye over and over again about his unknown involvement with the Queen's star, as well as his "undercover" status.

Duan Hengye ignored the other party's words, although in the eyes of most people in Interstellar who were not familiar with Duan Hengye, he always looked like he didn't care about everything and liked to ignore it. But the contempt in Heng Ye's eyes at this time still provokes the staff member who has been chatting and reminding him.

As a staff member of the top nobles, he has always been held high by others, and he rarely receives such attention. So just as the levitator was about to reach its destination, the staff member finally couldn't help raising his tone and reminded Duan Hengye in his ear: "Professor Duan. Although you have been an adult for a long time and left your family. Don't be so fooled by the popularity in front of you that you forget your original identity."

… sought after

… original identity

Although the other party's sentence was not long, every word of the magic was on Duan Hengye's anger.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand, as a traditional noble. They essentially looked down on Duan Hengye's "sought after" because of his mecha achievements. Although the world has developed into the interstellar era, this is a traditional family that has lasted for thousands of years. In the eyes of family members and even surrounding staff, the "favourite" Duan Hengye gained was undoubtedly cheap. Only from an aristocratic family like them should be born to be loved by Ye Tian citizens.

As for the latter sentence, it is undoubtedly a reminder to Duan Hengye that he was once "adopted" by this family. But unfortunately, the current Duan Hengye is no longer the one who lost his memory and was deeply brainwashed. This sentence did not tell Duan Hengye to "be careful", but instead reminded the royal family once again.

So Duan Hengye glanced at him coldly, his eyes were like a cold wind mixed with ice ballast. After seeing this, the staff couldn't help but panic, but soon he regained his composure and said to Duan Hengye, "You..."

Before the staff member could finish speaking, Duan Hengye interrupted the other party, "Here we are." The man in a black formal suit said coldly while looking at the scenery outside the window.

Seeing this, the staff member was still unhappy, but he had to let out a sigh of relief, and then stepped down from the suspension device before Duan Hengye.

"Sir just recovered a little bit of energy. After entering, Professor Duan, please pay attention to your words and deeds." After speaking, he stepped back from Duan Hengye's side.

Duan Hengye gently touched the edge of his sleeve again, and finally walked slowly towards the room. As an old noble family, the buildings here are also very old. Although relying on Interstellar's powerful restoration technology, the interior of the building still looked brand new at this time, but the old structure designed many years ago still made Duan Hengye feel a strong sense of oppression.

Because of the patient living in the room, Duan Hengye asked about the unpleasant smell of medicine before he took a few steps. His footsteps echoed in the corridor, looking very lonely.

Finally, Duan Hengye walked to the dark red wooden door at the end of the corridor, and pushed it open without hesitation. The bitter taste that instantly belonged to the potion expanded again on the tip of Duan Hengye's nose, and a hoarse male voice also came from inside—

"...Is it Duan Hengye?" he asked.

Duan Hengye walked into the house and closed the door reflexively. He saw that not far ahead, there was a weak man lying opposite him. The man beside the man was smoky, apparently delivering a mist of medication. During this period of time, Duan Hengye had already learned a lot of common sense in interstellar life, for example, he knew that this kind of treatment would only be used when the patient was terminally ill.

The man half-opened his eyes and looked very weak.

"It's me, Lord Duke." Duan Hengye stood there and saluted the man.

After hearing Duan Hengye's voice, the man on the hospital bed finally opened his eyes with great effort, and then said slowly, "Sure enough, he is already an adult..." After saying this, the man stretched towards Duan Hengye's position with some difficulty. Shot, "Come and let me see." He said slowly.
