The little prince took his guards and with the self-confessed greatest sincerity, rushed to Major General Yan"s house to visit in person.
However, the major general"s robot housekeeper stood outside the residence of the major general and blocked the prince and his guards. He spoke quite politely, "Respected little prince, Major General Yan went on holiday and his return date is uncertain. If you have anything then you can directly call the major general or leave a message with me."
There was no intention of inviting him inside at all.
The little prince"s mouth squirmed in a subtle manner. If he could call Major General Yan"s quantum computer then how could he go directly to the door? Not to mention, how could Major General Yan have gone out?
On the way here, he had received a message from a guard. There were a few people on the Star Netowrk who stated that yesterday, the empire"s battle G.o.d Major General Yan had gone to a dessert store and bought a lot of desserts in one breath!
Everyone in the empire knew that the royal heir had a sweet tooth. To this end, the imperial palace even hired several dessert masters. He had eaten the desserts made by the palace"s dessert masters several times and this caused the Star Network to fill envy for a considerable period of time.
Su Chimo never looked for desserts outside the problem but this showed that Major General Yan"s understanding of his preferences was very clear. To have gone to this degree, Major General Yan was still playing tricks. The prince had many suitors but no one had ever been as clumsy as Major General Yan!
Su Chimo took a deep breath and looked at the big ginkgo tree displayed in the environmental simulation system of the major general"s residence. In order to achieve his goal, he decided to take the initiative again. That"s why he spoke in a quiet tone. "I heard that Major General Yan recently bought a lot of desserts. They are out of print and I also wanted to taste them."
Old Iron was expressionless. Out of print? Did this prince think that desserts were antique books? Of course, this wasn"t the point. The point was, what was with this extremely familiar att.i.tude and tone? This was… the fifth person to step in?
Old Iron"s data suddenly fluctuated as he silently glanced at the little prince.
Meanwhile, the little prince decided that Major General Yan in the house was looking at him through the robot housekeeper. "Can you tell Major General Yan to let me go in and taste the out of print desserts? Or I can buy them at a high price to show my sincerity."
Old Iron continued to be expressionless.
"Little Prince, are you messing with me?"
Being invited inside when the host wasn"t at home?
"Is it okay?"
Su Chimo stepped forward, chin slightly raised in a provocative manner, lips curved in a small arc and eyebrows raised. His eyes flashed brightly in an arrogant manner. It was as if the next moment, the major general would appear at the door and humbling bow or fall to one knee to invite the prince in.
Old Iron was still expressionless. Although the information collected wasn"t enough, he still knew the ugly hidden secrets of the prince in front of him.Treating the clones like animals to be slaughtered…
If this was the fifth person in the middle of the major general, the lion master, the gingko and the little lion seedling then Old Iron"s choice was… Insert a bar horizontally and replace it!
The major general was so powerful and the lion master and little lion seedling so cut. Although the ginkgo was a bit dull, the deep feelings of love could be proven. Such a family of four was very good. If there was one more, it must be him, Old Iron. Someone else should think again!
Old Iron looked at the seemingly pure and kind person in front of him and the humanoid machine suddenly showed a smile that was as bright as the sun. The next moment, the new weapons given to him by the Third Army were instantly displayed and unceremoniously aimed at the little prince and the guards behind him.
At the same time, Old Iron"s cold and mechanical voice was heard. "Respected little prince, please keep a distance from the minimum warning line of the private residence. According to the laws of the empire, private residences that are illegally invaded will launch a defense mechanism and can be warned with force. To avoid unnecessary trouble, please withdraw!"
This was the first time the little prince had a high-energy ion cannon aimed at him at close range. The muzzle of the iron cannon with a blue light was bigger than his head.
The unprepared royal guards were busy raising their weapons. The little prince"s guards cried out, "Put down your weapons immediately. Any attacks on the little prince means being killed on the spot!"
Old Iron stood still. He neither held up his weapons or retreated. The cold mechanical eyes were oversized and wide-angled as they stared at the little prince and the guards behind him. He knew it was right to record this scene from the beginning.
Su Chimo felt cold and couldn"t move. He didn"t want to admit it but he had to say that the security of the major general"s home was much more powerful than the guards of the royal heir!
One was the commander of murderous beasts, the guardian of the empire and a person with trillions of military achievements. One received an inheritance from his ancestors and was born with a position and privileges beyond the reach of others.
The status that was heavier was exposed at this moment. He was the heir to the empire yet his actual ident.i.ty wasn"t comparable to Major General Yan, this barbarian from the wild star!
Su Chimo gritted his teeth. His black eyes flashed with fear, resentment and ambition as he was threatened by the weapons.
The imperial power should be supreme. The commander of the eight armies should be decided by imperial power, not by virtue of military merit. The emperor might be able to consider the appointment and dismissal of the commander but it was a right shared with the military.
How could this be called imperial power? Once he became the emperor, shouldn"t he have the n.o.blest status, the supreme status? How could he have the right to supervise the military without actually having power over the military?
Su Chimo was full of turmoil but he had to walk back with rigid steps, leaving the warning line of the private residence.
Old Iron put away his weapons and smiled politely. "Your Highness, do you want to leave a message?"
It was like nothing had just happened. Su Chimo"s face was blue and white. He was filled with so much hate that he couldn"t wait to mobilize the entire empire"s royal guards to tear apart this robot housekeeper!
However, this was the Capital Star and the home of the most powerful major general in the empire. It was illegal to invade a private residence and the entire empire would probably accuse him of misconduct, putting the already precarious imperial power at a disadvantage. The little prince felt hatred to the extreme.
He couldn"t do anything about this desire… so…
The little prince"s eyes suddenly widened as a thought crossed his consciousness. This thought was a shocking flash in his mind, letting his consciousness roar. He seemed to have made a mistake.
Everything about the major general flashed back through the little prince"s mind. From the first time the Star Network mentioned the battle G.o.d, the little prince didn"t like this person. Yanzheng was a soldier who came from an unknown star and his status was too humble to be worth mentioning. Then in a short period of time, he pushed his war effort to the extreme and his momentum swept through the entire Star Network, overpowering the little prince"s heat for more than a decade.
In particular, one person alone resisted the insect tide. The Third Army"s status rose and this name was repeated in every corner of the empire. Everyone in the empire knew the Third Army. The star domain had such a powerful person guarding the safety of the empire"s people.
The prestige of the empire"s battle G.o.d far surpa.s.sed the royal heir.
At the time when his father gave Yanzheng the status of major general, Su Chimo partic.i.p.ated as the royal heir. At first glance, he saw the tall, calm and restrained person wearing the major general"s uniform. Su Chimo was filled with emotions such as jealousy, disdain and resentment.
Then he saw heat and madness in Yanzheng"s eyes after Yanzheng saw him. The look was so deep that it was startling. It only lasted an instant and the major general"s eyes returned to its calm state, as if there had never been any waves.
The emotions contained in that gaze lasted for less than one second but the little prince was convinced he had seen it and his lips gently curved. At the time, he was convinced that the new commander of the Third Army was in love with him.
Therefore, the little prince had felt refreshed and his mood had never been better. How powerful was this person and how high was his military strength? Yet this person was worshipping at his feet!
Now in retrospect, there was nothing apart from that very brief look two years ago. Yanzheng didn"t actually do anything. The little prince realized that he had always ignored a fact. Apart from that ceremony where a meeting wasn"t allowed, the two people actually didn"t know each other at all. There was no face-to-face meeting in the real sense!
The little emperor silently bowed his head and his blue and white face became hot and painful. Any speculation about Yanzheng"s desire for him over the past two years seemed to be his own a.s.sumptions.
Yanzheng never had any feelings for him! All along, he was the one being sentimental! This fact made the prince feel a humiliation he had never experienced before. The humiliation spread like waves of magma all throughout his body.
Imagine if he found out that the pursuit of the last two years was a self-conceived notion and even the countless people online were led by him to reach such an idea. Then all of a sudden, it turned out to be fake and was made up by his own brain…
His face was going to be ripped off!
The little prince slowly looked up at the robot housekeeper. "I want to leave a message."
Old Iron stood calmly and automatically activated the function of the robot housekeeper. The little prince stared in Old Iron"s direction and suddenly sobbed, speaking in an extremely aggrieved manner, "Yanzheng, I just want to see you. Is this so difficult?"
Old Iron, "……"
His string of data was very violent and he didn"t know if it might explode? However, Old Iron was smart and had to maintain the premise of the major general"s robot housekeeper. It was his responsibility to carry out his tasks as a housekeeper.
Thus, Old Iron had to send the little prince"s video message to the major general.
Still, as an excellent robot housekeeper, his data processing had priorities. Major General Yan"s order to search for the experimental data of the clones was the highest level of information processing while the little prince"s message was a.s.signed to the lowest level.
The little prince turned and left. Once he turned around, the originally sad and wronged expression disappeared immediately and his entire face became distorted. If the imperial people discovered this then it was just a misunderstanding.
Yanzheng"s background didn"t mean much to him at all. His face and the face of the royal family wasn"t needed! This meant that this situation must be maintained. Yanzheng must become one of his many men! Once he restored the imperial power, he would repay today"s humiliation by hundreds of times.
The little prince disappeared and Old Iron returned to the house. His purpose was to suppress the fifth party.
Old Iron"s data was more active than ever as he quickly absorbed the information on the Star Network, jumping into the quantum computers of the billions of people in the empire to search for data related to the cloning experiment without invading the imperial people"s privacy.
The secrets of the imperial family"s cloning experiment would be uncovered by him little by little.
