Fortunately, Heinrich flashed fast and was only splashed a little, but before he had time to rejoice, Celia continued to vomit several times uncontrollably!
At this time, he had nothing to vomit at all, and all the water was twisted out of his stomach, but this embarrassment appeared on Celia's body, and the emperor didn't react for a while—then, when he realized what happened At that time, I saw that the trusted subordinates of the alliance had already rushed forward, helping Celia to the bathroom in a hurry, and squeezed the emperor out in an instant.
Just as Heinrich was about to catch up, he saw Aaron, Isaac and others rushing over from the end of the corridor, all asking: "What's going on?" "What happened?" "Where's the Marshal, Your Majesty?" What's the matter with you?"
Heinrich's lips moved, but he couldn't utter a word.
At this time, Kaleyan had already pushed Celia half-supported into the bathroom, and slammed the door with a backhand "Bang!". The sound of vomiting and water came intermittently from the Shaoqing door. Although it was very vague through the door, it still vibrated everyone's eardrums clearly.
Aaron wondered: "What... what's going on? Do you want to call a doctor?"
Lieutenant General Isaac looked at him, hesitated to speak, and looked at the emperor carefully for a while.
"What's wrong with you?" Aaron asked inexplicably.
"... No, I, I actually think that maybe Marshal Celia—"
"No, it's impossible," Heinrich subconsciously interrupted Lieutenant General Isaac, "impossible."
The emperor was confused in his mind, and slowly stepped back a few steps, leaning his back against the wall. Now he can't hear anything, and his whole body seems to be floating like standing on a cloud. For a moment, he even wants to pinch himself hard to see if he is dreaming.
On the other side, Aaron was still looking at Isaac in confusion, while the man with the scar was a little collapsed in front of this unresponsive colleague. He tried his best to express it with gestures and eyes for a long time, just when he was about to say it out loud. , Aaron finally realized: "Oh—"
Immediately afterwards, he shook his head: "Impossible, how is this possible, no, no, no—"
The man with the scar looked at Aaron and Heinrich with twitching corners of his mouth: "Why do you think it's impossible?!"
The emperor and the general said in unison: "Because that is Marshal Celia—"
The sound stopped abruptly, obviously they all realized that this reason seems to be a bit logically problematic.
So Isaac spread his hands innocently, and Aaron stared at him dumbfounded, and then turned his head to look at the emperor—but the emperor's expression quickly sank.
There was an eerie silence in the corridor, and the other generals of the empire didn't know what was going on. They looked at each other in doubt, and wanted to ask questions, but they all timidly shut their mouths in front of the emperor's gloomy expression.
There was a knock on the door, and Celia came out not far away while wiping her face with a tissue.
As if he didn't see the empire people in the corridor, he turned around and walked towards the exit of the corridor. Only at the moment of turning around, his eyes seemed to have passed Heinrich silently.
At that moment, Heinrich was also looking up at him, and the moment his eyes met, time seemed to be infinitely elongated to a standstill, and even the changing light, shadow and air in the corridor were forever frozen into a strange picture.
Then Celia turned around and walked out with Kaleyan.
Everyone stared blankly at this scene. After a long while, Lieutenant General Isaac's cautious and puzzled voice sounded in the corridor: "Your Majesty, why don't you—"
"No, don't say it."
Isaac was taken aback for a moment, only to see Heinrich turned his head, his expression sombre that he couldn't see any emotion at all.
"I can't say, I have to get the evidence first..." The emperor's ice-blue eyes narrowed slightly, and it took him a while to hear him speak again, but this time the voice was as soft as a whisper: "Even if you get the evidence, you can't do it." speak out."
…
"... It doesn't matter whether you are citizens of the empire or wanderers of free planets; as long as you were once a member of the Shining Legion, as long as you once shed the blood of the Shining Legion!"
"—I have returned, where are my warriors?"
The video of the speech spread throughout the universe with the photoelectric signal. In the video, Celia’s words were like a spark. The moment it landed, it set off a prairie fire, and then set off the entire Milky Way with lightning speed!
When the news of Celia's death on Red Saturn came back that year, an unprecedented upsurge of resistance erupted in the Alliance, and even reversed the battlefield situation for a time. But then, because of the loss of the commander in chief, the collapse of faith was inevitable. Finally, after a show of hands voted by Kaleyan and others, the Glory Legion chose to cease fire and surrender, and disbanded on the spot.
With tears in their eyes, countless people drove armed airships and even warships into the vast depths of space. Most of them chose to stay and volunteered to form a death squad, trying to launch a final suicide attack on the empire.
However, at this moment, the new Emperor Heinrich announced in time the truth that the Alliance Parliament betrayed the people, betrayed the Legion of Glory and led to the death of Celia—this action should be one of the most correct decisions Heinrich made after he took the throne. At a critical moment, the battle situation was reversed, and the huge hatred of the people was passed on to the Union Council.
Immediately, the interest group headed by the Conceitlin family became the chief culprit of the defeat, and the Alliance Council had to retreat from the galaxy; and the empire successfully recruited most of the soldiers of the Shining Legion through a series of recruiting measures. Settled as a citizen on the outskirts of the empire.
After fifty years of long evolution, these people have gradually become part of the empire. They work, live, trade, and pay taxes like the original residents of the empire; their connections with nearby planets have gradually increased, trading ports have been opened, and thousands of free ports have been added; they have intermarried with people from other galaxies of the empire and have offspring , almost completely integrated into the imperial society and system...
Yet these people are different.
They are the only people in the empire who have been on the cosmic battlefield except for a small number of formal soldiers who have served for a long time. They are real fighters, who have gone through the hail of bullets and the flesh and blood of war. They are an army forged of iron and blood, invincible and fearless.
…
The day after the conscription speech spread across the galaxy, riots broke out across the outskirts of the Empire. In just a few days, the situation further intensified, and the local government had to upgrade the high-altitude ban from yellow to red, and then to the highest level of red.
However, this is of no avail—on the fourth day after the speech, the turmoil reached a climax in various places. Countless soldiers of the former Glory Legion who had obtained the status of the empire drove the spaceship, easily tore through the high-altitude defense line, and fled to the vast space through the imperial space station. !
By the time the news reached Egret, the capital of the empire, the situation had already deteriorated considerably.
The number of defectors doubled at a rate of 264% per day, and one after another the border towns were turned into white land; many imperial government agencies were on the verge of paralysis, and transportation and communication were completely cut off; what's more, some originally from the alliance, now The officers who had already served in the imperial army also resolutely chose the opposing camp, and many of them even left the space fortress directly in their battleships!
Return to the League!
Return to the Glorious Legion!
The intensifying situation finally made it impossible for the Imperial Army to stand idly by. Ten days after the speech, the Egret Senate finally sent an urgent notice to the New Kremlin, thousands of light-years away, requesting the emperor to immediately deal with the unprecedented tide of alliance conscription with an iron fist!
"The Union army is riding us to show off!" In the palace, Elder Longfellow, who was dressed in a gold-encrusted black robe, roared at the emperor: "This is not a problem of eight million people, this is a humiliation of the country! Actions tell us that they don't care about the empire! They don't care about the authority and pride of the empire!"
Heinrich sat on the throne with a blank expression on his face. Longfellow put his tea cup down heavily, and even his gray eyebrows were filled with anger: "The joint army is not only us and the alliance fighting against the Dark Star Hall, It's also a confrontation between the empire and the alliance! If someone goes to the city before the battlefield, where will the face of the royal family be! Where will the face of the army be! Where will the face of the empire be!"
"I can't handle it."
Elder Longfellow instantly seemed to be strangled by someone's neck: "What did you say?!"
"I can't handle it," Heinrich said lightly, "They must be allowed to go."
At this time, Elder Longfellow looked at him almost like a lunatic, but the emperor himself was very calm, and even smiled wryly: "Celia may be pregnant, it's mine."
·
At that moment, Elder Longfellow's face was extremely exciting: extreme astonishment, surprise, disbelief, mixed with anger and doubt, and a trace of indescribable ecstasy, made the old man's expression extremely distorted, and even looked a little absurd: "Your Majesty, What did you say?!"
"The child is mine—" Heinrich paused, took a deep breath, and said in a low voice, "Although he is only a possibility."
Longfellow's performance at the moment was not much better than that of Admiral Alon. The old man shook his head subconsciously, and stammered after a long while: "No...impossible, you can do such... such a thing?!"
"The Griffin's medical system didn't diagnose it, and Qu An didn't get a chance to get close, but his performance was very similar. He was vomiting, anemic, often felt hungry but quickly lost weight, and his energy was low. The last time he listened to the battle He fell asleep—I have known him for hundreds of years, and I have never seen him fall asleep on the battlefield... "
The corner of Heinrich's mouth twitched coldly, and he said, "Also, the inhibitor he took is to cover up the smell of the pregnancy pheromone, otherwise everyone would immediately know what happened... and that's why I haven't smelled it. "
Elder Longfellow was dumbfounded, and suddenly slapped the table for a long time and stood up: "Why are you not sure?! Physical examination! Do a physical examination immediately! Take the results to the Senate for announcement, and everyone must know—"
"No," the emperor's voice was very gloomy, "unless I don't want this child anymore."
Elder Longfellow was taken aback, and then his frenzied head slowly calmed down, almost immediately regretting his impulsive remarks.
Indeed, this news cannot be announced at present. Not to mention that it cannot be announced, even verification is very difficult-what qualifications does the empire have to force the visiting heads of friendly states to undergo medical examinations? !
Even if all of them now know that Celia is pregnant, and everyone knows how important this little prince is to the empire, they can't say a word! Not only can't say it, but you have to do everything possible to hide it and pretend that you don't know it!
It is true that there are many benefits to announcing this news: firstly, the cooperation between the alliance and the empire will be strengthened, and many conflicts will be alleviated immediately; secondly, the prestige of the emperor will be greatly improved, which will have intangible and huge benefits for the empire; as far as the current situation is concerned, As far as Celia is concerned, the image of Celia has been irreparably damaged, and it can immediately curb the intensified tide of alliance conscription...
Even if the above situations do not occur, the people will know that they will get a little prince!
The foundation of the country has been established, and the people's hearts are stable, which is the top priority for any imperial country; what's more, the emperor of this country has not given any hope to the people for fifty years!
The uncertainty of the successor is the main reason why the imperial regime is currently under attack. If there is an heir with Celia blood, the biggest disadvantage of the empire will even be turned into the biggest advantage in one fell swoop!
However, Elder Longfellow's expression also sank.
No benefit, however great, can compare to a simple—
Celia could kill the kid.
Don't say what to combine with what markers, things like estrus will not work at all with inhibitors. Moreover, it is often heard that the marks are forcibly washed away through surgery. Although the Empire has already banned this technology, who can guarantee that the Alliance will not? As long as Celia thinks, there will be sufficient inhibitors and medical teams after returning to the alliance, and the estrus period can be avoided by various means!
At that time, wouldn't it be this child who was accidentally left behind for some unknown reason that would truly connect the empire and the alliance, the emperor and Marshal Celia
This is the only trump card in the empire, and it must never be played!
Obviously, if this news is announced now, they will immediately curb the tide of conscription, and even put the alliance in an extremely embarrassing situation; however, this behavior will only immediately lead to a consequence, that is, Celia publicly denies it, and then beats the child !
—then they have nothing, what are they left with
"No, I can't say it... I really can't say it..." Elder Longfellow walked around the room twice with an agility that was extremely disproportionate to his age. What should I do?!"
The emperor's pupils constricted slightly.
"If he returns to the alliance, can the child come back to the empire?" Elder Longfellow stepped forward and said excitedly, "I can't let him go! This child must be born in the empire!"
