Views:

Moodys' physical recovery and the fact that Winston the Great handed over the Rising Sun Legion to him in public have attracted the attention of all forces in the entire Imperial Star aristocratic circle, and everyone wants to hear a few words of news.

But Moodys and Zhuo Yang had no intention of dealing with them. They only gave a clear message that a banquet would be held at the Prince's Mansion in a week, inviting everyone from the aristocratic circle to publicly answer all the questions of concern to the emperor. After the prince celebrated his recovery, Moodys and Zhuoyangfu hurriedly left the military parade site on the grounds that Moodys' physical condition was not suitable for staying long and still needed to go home to rest.

Moodys usually has a gentle temperament, but when he treats his soldiers at work, he is vigorous and resolute. Undoubtedly, after gaining control of the Rising Sun Legion, he immediately organized all the members and soldiers of the Rising Sun Legion. Returned to his own command, and left it to Gu Che to take care of it.

And his portable female officer and secretary before he became ill, the female sentinel Hathaway also took office as soon as possible.

After Moodys had processed a series of things on hand, it was almost evening. Moodys used his spare time to scan the latest news on StarWorld, but was inserted by a flower from the Internet's "Prince Princess". On the cow dung, you have to insert it for a lifetime, "The crown prince and the crown princess are the beauties and beasts of the interstellar version" to swipe the screen.

"Do you think I'm ugly now? Hathaway." After reading the news, Moodys happened to see his unsightly face in the reflective glass, and couldn't help but ask about his portable female officer.

He used to wear a mask when he appeared in front of the public because he was disfigured for fear of scaring people... This time, Moodys always felt that wearing a mask was not formal enough because he had to drive a mecha and wear a military uniform. With, I didn't expect it to attract such comments from the public.

Hathaway, who became busy because of the physical recovery of the prince’s body, was shocked immediately: "Why do you think that? Your Majesty... Your scars are left behind to save the army. It is a medal of heroes, who? Dare to think it is ugly?"

Can't understand why the noble Crown Prince would think so

Moodys’ face was burned by Zerg’s venom. The Zerg’s venom is very toxic. Even if it can be temporarily cured and restored to its original state, it will ulcerate from the depths of the skin within three months, making people feel terrified. People, except for digging out half of the corroded face, there is no way to completely stop the erosion of this venom.

After Moodys scared the guides, he immediately treated them several times. At first, the face was normal for a while, but within three months, the skin burned by the venom ulcerated from the inside. Up.

Most of his face was rotten, not to mention, and he had to go through the ulceration period that had just been burned, and it looked more terrifying than the scars all over his face.

After several treatments, all of them were the same. After being judged by the doctor that there was no cure, Moodys's own body was suffering day by day, so he didn't have the mind to care about this face, and only covered it with a mask.

And now—

After everything is moving in a good direction and his body is gradually getting better, looking at his unsightly face, Moodys can't help but stop thinking about it.

"... No, nothing." Moodys has no habit of interacting with his subordinates, but his heart is dim.

This face became like this, he was used to it, but he always thought it was nothing...

However, his crown prince was Zhuo Yang. Zhuo Yang was born so well that he was almost perfect, unable to pick out the flaws. The whole person is like a work of art, from hair to toes. It's not good-looking, even the toes are all round and cute, small and exquisite to the extreme, even if he is not disfigured, standing next to Zhuo Yang is not very suitable, he has to be compared directly...

Now, there is no need to say more, he just can't bear to look directly at it just thinking about it.

Other people’s opinions, Moodys naturally doesn’t care, but Zhuo Yang... But he doesn’t know if he feels wronged if he has to face him for the rest of his life...

People in love are thoughtful, especially when the relationship between him and Zhuo Yang is still lacking a formal confession and piercing.

"What do you think of my face being operated on now?" Moodys returned to the crown prince's mansion, and after dinner, when he was alone with Zhuo Yang, he asked out tentatively.

Zhuo Yang immediately looked at him and asked in astonishment: "Why do you have to have the operation? Isn't your face burned by the Zerg venom? Even if you have the operation, the effect will not last for a long time... Why should I suffer this crime? ?"

The question he considered was very practical.

I feel that there is no need for Moodys to do this after a period of time, and the effect will not last long.

"Yes, but today I didn’t wear a mask. There were a lot of comments on the Internet that did not match our appearance. Frankly speaking, I was quite afraid of scaring people. Before, I was in poor health and rarely came out. You can wear a mask every time you come out, but now... I’m afraid there will be many occasions I will attend in the future, I can’t always wear a mask, right?" Moodys hesitated and said with a certain look at Zhuo Yang.

Zhuo Yang didn't see his careful thinking, he didn't think much about it immediately, and he opened his mouth and said, "Well, I also saw a lot of messages and comments on the Internet today. I just want to talk to you."

"I think that not many people are scared like you today. Most of the comments are still ridiculing us. I think you can completely stop wearing a mask in the future and just show up in front of everyone like this. Your scars It was left for the empire. It was a heroic, honorable medal and part of you. There is no need to cover it." Zhuo Yang suggested sincerely: "Moreover, I read many people's comments today. I think you are so upright. The appearance of concealment will help your public support rate increase. Most people in the world are forgetful. Your scars are gone, and your achievements will be gradually forgotten. If the scars remain, they will show up in the world. Instead, you can remind most people of what you have done for the empire and what you have done for the empire..."

"It sounds like it sounds too scheming, but now that many reactionary forces are following the trend and opposing the imperial family, in terms of the environment in which the imperial family is required to be banned, what have you done to remind the people, on the contrary, can make the people's sentiment and public opinion bias? We make the rule of the royal family continue to be maintained because the ruler is you." He said.

The situation of the Osphia royal family is because seventy-five years ago, the heir to the throne, the elder brother of Emperor Winston, and Prince Hannibal, because of his self-proclaimed identity, noble blood, discriminated against ordinary people, and did not take ordinary lives as life, in order to create Spread out a special private soldier, and conduct biochemical and human experiments in the outer galaxy, which is now multiple border planets, grafting ordinary humans and animals together to create their own undead team, indirectly causing large-scale plagues and diseases on the border planets The outbreak, the gradual plague infection, and the incident that spread to the inner galaxy broke out. It is already very dangerous and subtle.

If not, the emperor at that time decisively killed his eldest son's family for the common people without hesitation, but the royal family of Osphia would have disappeared long ago.

And now, it’s just barely supporting it—

This is why when Winston the Great taught his heirs, he always asked Moodys to promote equality for all, learn to sacrifice one’s life for the people, and love all people with a fraternity heart, even if Moodys is too much. Whether it’s kindness or idealism, it’s better than another Hannibal.

In that way, the anger of the people would completely wipe out the Osphia royal family.

Although the people are always forgetful, Hannibal's affairs are not long from now.

However, Moodys will get a very high popular support rate because of being close to the people, but it is also beyond the expectation of Winston the Great.

"What you said makes sense." Moodys didn't expect Zhuo Yang to have such a political sense and consciousness. He just wanted to entangle his appearance and test his mind. He directly thought of how to get through his current fiasco. Higher public opinion and popular support have gone up.

Moodys was a little helpless, and helplessly grabbed Zhuo Yang's hand. A little nervous, he definitely looked at him: "Then what about you? Do you think I look ugly now?"

He doesn't care about his appearance, but more care about his partner's opinion.

"... Me? Of course I don't think you are ugly now. I told you that in my opinion, this is a part of you and a hero's medal." Zhuo Yang was suddenly grabbed by him. Yihui came to Moodys and asked himself what this meant, and he smiled at once: "Moreover, I wish that your face has always been like this."

He certainly doesn't think Moodys is ugly.

Moodys grabbed his hand, his eyes sparkling: "Oh?"

"In this way, I'm not afraid that other guides will miss you, because they are all scared away. I will be more at ease, I hate others coveting my sentry." Zhuo Yang looked at him with a smile and couldn't help.

Moodys was very helpful in his heart. He didn't care much about his appearance, and he cared more about Zhuo Yang's views. Now that Zhuo Yang didn't care about his appearance, he didn't worry about it anymore.

As the voice fell, the two of them still clasped their hands tightly, never letting go for a long time.

The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous.

Zhuo Yang's and Moodys's ears were a little red unconsciously.

After a while, Moodys took the lead: "Remember, on the day of our wedding, I gave you a signed divorce agreement?"

Zhuo Yang didn't know why he asked, but he answered, "Yes."

"At the time, the reason I gave you this divorce agreement was because you told me that you already have someone you like and you don’t want to be married by your family, but you never said who that person was, only that he was at the time. I don’t like you. I didn’t ask much at the time. I thought that my fate was not long. I gave you the divorce agreement. I can agree to the divorce whenever you want. Even if you don’t want to leave, I won’t be able to live long, you You can still pursue your own happiness..." Moodys is determined to look at him, as if only one person can be seen in his eyes: "Now it seems that I will not be able to die for a while. At the time of the wedding night, you had to tell Who is the one you like, I interrupted you..."

He clutched Zhuo Yang's hand tightly, his palms sweated unconsciously: "How do you choose now?"

He knew that Zhuo Yang liked him, but he wanted to ask and say it ambiguously.

"Heh." Zhuo Yang chuckled and looked back at him, and asked: "What did I want to say? Can't you guess it? Since you can't guess it, I'll say it again."

He smiled: "On our wedding night, what I want to say to you is that the person I like is—"

But before his voice fell, Moodys interrupted him again: "Shhh! I should say this first."
