The much-anticipated little prince didn't open those ice-blue, watery, innocent and curious eyes until the third day after his birth.
The moment he saw the entire universe, the entire universe also fell for him. On the day Heinrich took him back to the palace to apply for a household registration, Egret was blocked by spaceships from all over the universe, and reports from countless reporters spread across the Milky Way like snowflakes, and every corner of human existence was covered by various All kinds of news and pictures are covered tightly.
"Gentlemen and ladies, asexual creatures and soul electromagnets! Now we see the picture of the royal family flying across the street, heading for the new Fontainebleau Palace ten kilometers away! His Majesty Heinrich of the Empire and the Union Celia The marshal is sitting in the shuttle, and the little prince we are looking forward to is also sitting in it with his parents... "
"What? The Alliance just protested that the Marshal just provided a genetic sample so he can't be called a mother? Oh, we all know how many planets, minerals, energy, and Omega the Alliance occupied in the war that just ended, and we, the people of the Empire, didn't say anything about it What, what's the matter with just calling mother?"
The TV camera was condescending, aiming at the slow-moving pure black royal shuttle with a gold-plated emblem. I saw it passing over the long street covered with red carpets. On both sides of the long street, there were breathtaking crowds of people, and they kept sending out deafening cheers as the shuttle passed by.
"This is a solemn moment! It's a sacred moment!" The anchor of another media roared not far away: "In five minutes, the shuttle will stop in front of the palace gate! Your Majesty will hug the little prince, Walk into the new Fontainebleau Palace with Marshal Celia of the Union!"
"We have been stationed here since three days ago, waiting to take this century scene! The empire has waited for fifty years, and today we finally got what we wanted! Please cheer on this day of universal celebration !"
In another round of more shocking cheers, the flying shuttle reflected the brilliant sunshine.
——What no one knows is that at this moment, Celia in the shuttle was holding the little prince high, and it took a long time for her to twitch and say: "Pee, pee..."
The little prince kicked his legs and cried hoarsely, the underside of his swaddle was tick-tock, and the front of the marshal's gorgeous military uniform was already wet. The emperor was in a hurry to bring new diapers and new swaddling clothes, and skillfully changed them three times, five times and two times, and said with love and compassion: "My son loves to drink milk, doesn't he, Xiao Jiageng?"
"..." Celia asked earnestly, "Heinrich, can you call him by his first name?"
On the first day of the little prince's birth, the emperor and handsome spent each other "hahaha, he looks like a little monkey" and "yes, yes, he looks like you". On the second day, the red color of the baby's whole body faded, and the two of them spent the whole day "How can my son be so cute!" "It's exactly the same as when I was a child!"
And so on until a week later, when it was time to go back to the palace to register, the parents who were watched by the people of the universe suddenly realized a serious problem: What is the name of the son
When they realized this problem, Fei Shuo was already waiting at the entrance of the hospital, 100,000 people spontaneously gathered on both sides of the long street, and the news media were all in place. Facing the shining long guns and short cannons outside the door, the same imagination flashed across the minds of the two emperors and commanders: the palace, the notary office, and the elders of the empire solemnly declared: "From now on, this is the heir of our Gemini Empire. Please, Your Majesty, send a message to the whole universe." Proclaim the holy name!"
Emperor: "Sorry, I haven't figured it out yet."
The whole universe: "…"
Countless crows flew across the sky.
The corner of Celia's mouth twitched, and just as she turned her head to ask Heinrich for help, she saw the Galaxy Emperor wrote a dozen notes, crumpled them up and threw them on the ground, then turned around and said seriously, "Come on, dear, pick one. "
"..." Celia thought that he must have lost his head in a hurry, and suddenly he felt that this method was very good.
"Actually, I don't know why you chose 'Hilda' in the end. What's wrong with the name Gagen?" In the shuttle, Heinrich said dissatisfiedly: "It's okay for Gagen to be a daimyo, you Think about those so-called Valery, Anders, Zakus, Anatole... Compared with them, Jia is more pleasing to the ear?"
Celia gazed at the Galaxy Emperor affectionately, but it was difficult for him to deceive himself even in the face of this handsome face: "I really don't think so," he finally said helplessly.
·
The voice of the anchor on the TV was drowned in a huge cheer. I saw the gate of the imperial palace opened in front of me with a bang, and the flying shuttle slowly stopped on the red carpet 300 meters away from the gate. Immediately after the car door opened, Marshal Celia walked down from both sides with a swaddling baby in his arms. car.
At that moment, the surrounding sound waves reached a terrifying 180 decibels. Fortunately, the sound insulation material absorbed most of the volume, but the loudness still caused the entire earth to vibrate: "Long live Your Majesty!"
"Long live the Empire!"
"Long live Marshal Celia!"
"Long live this kind of saying..." Celia hugged the little prince, walked along the red carpet to the gate of the palace, and was interrupted by Heinrich when she was about to speak: "My dear, don't take political lessons at this time, Otherwise, I will take my son out of your arms and let the whole universe see your wet clothes... "
Celia waved to the enthusiastic crowd on both sides, "You are too much, Heinrich!"
The emperor gave him a smug smile back.
The cameras all over the sky were shining brighter than the stars, and the surrounding area was full of gun salutes and thunderous cheers. The grand scene was comparable to the enthronement ceremony of the new emperor when the empire was established. At this moment attracting worldwide attention, little Hilda (Gaggen) Heinrich showed extraordinary political talent: He opened his petal-like mouth and smiled, waving his fleshy little hands , Stretch out to the masses on both sides.
— Following this action, even greater cheers broke out in the crowd!
Many people desperately leaned into the cordon, and many girls who got close immediately fell down clutching their chests, and were quickly dragged away by the rushing medical robots.
Celia reluctantly hugged the writhing baby: "Student Hilda, you can't..."
"Pfft!" Before the words finished, the little prince turned his head and spat a happy bubble at the marshal.
Heinrich: "…"
Celia: "..."
Heinrich was ecstatic: "Celia! Look! Our son smiled! What a leader and how diplomatic! Our son smiled—"
Celia: "I know! He spit in my face!"
Although countless physicists later verified that with the strength of the little prince's bubble, Marshal Celia's face was inevitable, but most people expressed comfort: at least it shows that the little prince is in good health... Most of the interviewees expressed their interest in the saliva, and expressed their strong willingness to try it for themselves.
From this point of view, the Alliance Ministry of Foreign Affairs did not raise any more protests, and only repeatedly emphasized the fact that the little prince is also a citizen of the Alliance in the newspaper.
The two emperors and commanders held the child in their arms, and they both walked up the wide steps at the entrance of the palace. Inside the gate is resplendent and majestic. On the left is the excited Elder Longfellow, and members of the Imperial Senate in black and gold robes; on the right are most of the alliance generals headed by Kaleyan, and Aaron A senior officer of the Imperial Army.
There are many similarities between the alliance's white gold-inlaid military uniform and the empire's black silver-plated uniform. Standing together, they complement each other, like rows of tall and straight trees standing in front of the flashing lights one after another. Admiral Anders Aaron, who was at the head of the imperial formation, coughed, turned his head slightly unobtrusively, and asked, "Kaleyan?"
"Ok?"
"How is the situation in the empire?"
Kaleyan said seriously: "Extravagance and waste."
"..." Aaron touched his nose and stopped talking.
After a while, the admiral's determination to die remained undiminished, and when he saw that no one was paying attention, he asked furtively, "Do you think our Imperial Army is on camera today?"
The little excitement and shyness in these words couldn't be concealed, Kaleyan finally couldn't help asking: "What exactly do you want to say?"
Before the words fell, a whole row of imperial generals turned their heads, the anticipation and sorrow in their eyes made people shudder, and all the generals of the alliance immediately took half a step back—
"Maybe it can change the image of the Imperial Army after being photographed..." Lieutenant General Isaac said quietly, "So that a few more colleagues can find their wives..."
At this time, a miniature camera flew over, and all the generals of the empire immediately turned around, straightened their collars and stood tall, showing their most handsome side in front of the camera.
Everyone in the alliance: "..."
Kaleyan finally couldn't help asking: "You can't find a wife, but it has nothing to do with image?!"
·
After the 28th round of the salute, the two emperors and commanders hugged the little prince and walked slowly into the tall auditorium.
In the solemn music, everyone turned to face the heir of the empire, and welcomed him with warm applause.
Little Prince Hilda blinked her big eyes in her swaddling baby, staring curiously at the applauding people on both sides of the road. Probably it was the excited and joyful expressions on his face that made him very happy. The little guy immediately began to wriggle around happily, shaking his little hands and screaming.
——As expected, it was an Alpha baby boy who inherited Heinrich's bloodline. He could twist freely after a week of birth, and he still had quite a lot of strength. Celia hurriedly stuffed his hands back into the swaddling clothes. The one that was originally held with one hand was now replaced with two hands, so as not to be accidentally turned out by him.
The emperor and handsome walked along the long red carpet through the auditorium, climbed the stairs, and came to the high platform where everyone looked up. On the other side, Elder Longfellow also walked up tremblingly—for today, the old man specially took out the jewel corsage and velvet top hat that he had been reluctant to wear for decades, and forced himself not to smile all over his face to show his seriousness , causing his expression to look a little stiff and weird: "Next, on behalf of the Imperial Senate, the Cabinet, the Royal Association, and the relevant administrative centers of the Empire, I will issue the Imperial Citizenship Card to the eldest son of His Majesty Heinrich and Marshal Silia …”
Heinrich bowed politely - this is not only the emperor's tribute to the Senate, but also respect for the social system of the people of the empire.
As a representative of the alliance, Celia only nodded to the imperial flag hanging high above, and then handed Elder Longfellow the swaddle in his arms.
Fortunately, at this time, the camera was shot at high speed, and the suspicious water marks on the chest of the marshal's dress could not be seen. The eyes of the entire galaxy were focused on the little prince's pink and tender face. Elder Longfellow took the swaddle respectfully and said loudly: "The Gemini Empire has been established for fifty-two years. From then on, this is the foundation of our great empire." Heir! Your Majesty, please tell the whole universe the sacred name of the crown prince!"
Heinrich straightened up, smiled and said, "My eldest son's name is Hilda."
Prolonged applause sounded again in the auditorium, and the notary staff immediately entered Hilda Heinrich's name into the system to generate a chip not much bigger than the tip of a needle, and presented it to Elder Longfellow with both hands. After taking it, the elder put in the prepared syringe, pulled out the little prince's white and tender arm, and the syringe instantly fixed the chip under the skin with a snap.
This is the step that every newborn baby in the empire will go through when it is born, which symbolizes that the child will be a citizen of the empire from then on. For the little prince Hilda, the political purpose imposed on him and the infinite possibilities extended in the future are even more significant and far-reaching.
—But the child is still young after all, after the injection, the baby is still dazed and doesn’t feel any pain, just lying in the swaddle for a while, and then “ah” turned to Celia and reached out to hug her.
Celia took the swaddle with a smile, and Elder Longfellow said loudly: "Please turn around, the prince, and accept the congratulations of the empire—"
The two emperors and commanders turned around side by side, only to see the singing echoing in the magnificent auditorium, everyone looked solemn, and lowered their lower bodies slowly while pressing their left chest: "May my Galaxy Empire prosper and prosper!"
"Long live His Royal Highness Hilda!"
In the swaddling baby in Celia's arms, the little prince Hilda's gaze was ignorant, staying on the crowd for a moment, and looking out of the auditorium through the crowd. I saw that the red carpet stretched far away for hundreds of miles, and people gathered on the side of the road, applauding overwhelmingly under the blue sky thousands of miles away.
"Long live Little Highness Hilda!"
"Long live my emperor! Long live the Great Galaxy Empire!"
Heinrich couldn't help shaking his head, and said with a smile: "Long live, where is there a long live country in this world? Everything we have done is just planning for the next few decades."
"No one has ever been able to think for thousands of years. Time keeps turning right into wrong, and wrong into right... Just like everything we do now, who knows if it will become Wrong?"
Celia paused, and smiled softly: "But... the history of the entire universe is also composed of these countless insignificant decades, so now we just need to find the current correct path and stick to it."
Heinrich turned his head to look at him, and happened to meet Celia's gaze, and the two looked at each other and smiled slightly.
Farther away, fireworks soared into the sky, and thousands of cannons fired, covering the entire Egret Star in a brilliant halo. Under the sky full of fireworks, the moment they watched was frozen into a picture, which was forever integrated into the surging history of the Milky Way.
