Walk alone in the abyss

Mr. Yang, the inmate serving the case, is strolling around the resplendent palace with his hands behind his back at the moment.

Wherever they passed were the officers and soldiers of the royal guard who stood at attention and saluted, and those maids in the palace who couldn't help but peek at them when they bowed.

In front of the emperor's bedroom, the number of mechanical guards doubled.

What the old emperor didn't know was that the systems of these mechanical guards were very old;

It was Yang Ming who let Lu Invasion take control of these mechanical guards and patched them up to prevent them from being used by other forces.

—he had his heart broken for the noblest man in the country.

"Master Viscount, please enter."

The maid struggled to open the door of the bedroom, and Yang Ming looked from a distance, and saw the old emperor reclining on the throne with a gloomy expression.

This omnic seems to have accumulated a lot of negative emotions.

Yang Ming couldn't help but see the scene of Princess Dana being thrown on the bed by the old emperor.

That thing really broke through the ethical bottom line of normal human beings.

"Your Majesty," Yang Ming saluted the old emperor.

"They will sentence you," the old emperor said coldly, "Just because you ordered the fire to destroy the fleet of the New Federation, they will sentence you!"

Yang Ming: Half a month has passed!

"Your Majesty," Yang Ming said in a low voice, "this matter actually complies with military procedures."

"Don't you blame them?" The old emperor's gaze was somewhat sharp.

Yang Ming smiled calmly: "At the moment I gave the order to fire, the worst outcome I thought of was actually being shot. Disobedience on the battlefield, active attack, and passively dragging our fleet into the war, this is how many times I was shot." no guilt."

"Really?" The old emperor frowned slightly, as if he didn't get the result he wanted.

Yang Ming changed the subject: "If it wasn't for the fact that I was dispatched by the Royal Guards, with your deterrent power, it would definitely not be a simple half-year imprisonment."

The old emperor's breathing became much easier immediately.

He stood up barefoot, his loose robe shaking slightly.

It was the familiar chat mode again, the old emperor walked with Yang Ming and talked, the content ranged from literature to philosophy, from the starry sky to human nature, and it took half an hour to cut to the main topic.

"I will pardon you," the old emperor said softly, "I am very pleased with your courage and your loyalty to the royal family. With your assistance, Edwan will soon be able to reconquer the military."

Yang Ming immediately said:

"Your Majesty, I am loyal to you now, Edwan is only a prince after all, and he respects and obeys you.

"Also, please think twice about the pardon, otherwise I will be under more pressure in the army, and those generals may be impatient to assassinate me.

"They've gone above and beyond."

"Yes," the old emperor narrowed his eyes. "The Minister of Defense was poisoned, and the First Fleet almost lost control. They bypassed the royal family and directly communicated with the Sherman Empire military. They have long ignored the royal family."

Yang Ming sighed: "This is a disease accumulated in the past few decades, and it is very difficult to recover."

"Viscount Yang Ming, I actually have high hopes for you," the old emperor said softly, "The future is the era of you and Edwan, and I will use the resources of the royal family to train you. I heard from them that you are now in the army Very prestigious in the Young Boys faction."

"It was because I gave the order to fire, and the mood was very depressed."

Yang Ming sighed:

"Your Majesty, you can actually believe that in this army, most of the soldiers and low-ranking officers have the ideological consciousness of being loyal to the country.

"When the fleet of the New Federation attacked civilians, I could feel that the atmosphere in the entire star cruiser became oppressive, and everyone wanted to go up and fight the Invincible Fleet of the New Federation.

"In fact, before I gave the order to fire, I asked the officers and soldiers on the Emig star cruiser to vote. Ninety percent of them chose to fight, five percent did not make a choice, and only one percent The fifth is military officers who are afraid of taking responsibility."

The old emperor nodded slowly, and he suddenly asked: "So, when the new federation attacked the palace, how did the soldiers react?"

"Indifferent."

As Yang Ming said softly, the old emperor frowned tightly.

"Indifferent?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

There was a little sharpness in Yang Ming's eyes, and he said slowly:

"Maybe in the eyes of His Majesty, the imperial power is supreme, but in the eyes of the people, the Luofeng imperial power is no more than a puppet of the Sherman Empire. They are not afraid of the imperial power, but the generals who control the fleet.

"Under the imperial system, the realization of power is from top to bottom, but when the citizens feel that the royal family does not have the ability to lead them, this power will have nowhere to go.

"The army is even more like this. The royal family can control only these tens of thousands of guards..."

"enough!"

The old emperor suddenly growled, his eyes seemed to spew out flames: "It is the imperial power that shaped this country!"

"Your Majesty," Yang Ming frowned slightly, "it is the people who have shaped this country."

"Without the Moon Clan expanding its borders, where would Luofeng come from?"

"Before the founding emperor of the Luofeng Empire—the former Grand Duke of the Sherman Empire, led a private fleet to capture these administrative planets, there were other regimes here."

Yang Ming said without haste:

"Before the royal family demands allegiance from its subjects, shouldn't it reflect on what protection the royal family can bring to this country?

"Your Majesty, the biggest problem in this country is now the royal family.

"If the royal family is strong enough to lead the three armies, the people will salute you spontaneously; but now, if your convoy leaves the palace, the people will only bow to you under the pressure of the guards.

"Bowing your head is just a concession, not a salute."

The old emperor took half a step back and stared at Yang Ming: "Viscount Yang Ming, do you know what you are talking about?"

"I am sober, Your Majesty."

Yang Ming smiled and said:

"You can extend my sentence because of your personal emotions.

"When I gave the order to fire on the Federals, I made my decision.

"I will help Edwan because I am friends with Edwan, this country needs a monarch who understands the economy to revive the economy.

"But from now on I will only be responsible for the safety of the people of this country in order to fulfill my duty as a soldier.

"Besides, before you angrily make the decision to extend my sentence, you should perhaps consider my current prestige among the young men of the army."

The old emperor suddenly raised his left hand, the anger on his face could not be concealed at all, it seemed that it wanted to strangle Yang Ming's neck.

But when it raised its hand to grab Yang Ming, its movements suddenly became slow.

It covered its heart, and staggered back two steps.

Yang Ming turned his head to look at the maid at the side, and said slowly: "Your Majesty is not feeling well, why don't you come over and help me?"

The maids hurried forward, and the old emperor drove them away with a low growl.

"May I take my leave, Your Majesty?"

Yang Ming asked softly: "If it's any later, I will miss the meal in the prison."

"You! Traitor! You will never get out of that prison!"

Yang Ming nodded with a smile, gave a military salute to the old emperor, turned around and walked towards the door.

The old emperor kept shouting.

"Come on! Come on!"

The mechanical guard outside the door remained motionless.

The guards of the two rows of guards showed some hesitation in their eyes;

But the commands from their earphones made them understand that what they had to do at this moment was just stand still and watch.

On the way back to the prison, Yang Ming sent a text message to Li.

‘Suggest that the old emperor extend my sentence and ensure that I can stay in prison for a while. '

Li's reply quickly popped up on the watch.

‘The old emperor wants to change you to indefinite imprisonment, but the boss, Edwan rushed to the palace to contradict the old emperor with the ministers. '

pretty.

Yang Ming rubbed the center of his brows, he finally made up his mind and wanted to use the old omnic to disappear for a while longer.

After all, I still overestimated the upper limit of this omnic.

Want Edwan to know that the old emperor is an omnic?

Yang Ming thought carefully.

No matter from which point of view, it would not be of any benefit for Edwan to know the truth of this matter.

The old emperor has no live head for two years.

Princess Dana is plotting to reboot the old bastard.

The Foreign Affairs Bureau of the Sherman Empire has acquiesced that Edwan is the helm of the Luofeng royal family, and is ready to promote Edwan as the crown prince.

If Edwan learned of this, he would easily turn his back on the Sherman Empire, which would be detrimental to his future development.

——With Edwan in control of the political situation, the Sherman Empire can rest assured that Luofeng urgently needs the protection of the Sherman Empire at this stage.

'Don't tell him,' Yang Ming sighed softly from the bottom of his heart.

Suddenly, loud voices came from outside the car window.

Yang Ming pointed to the window, and the prison guards at the side quickly removed the projection wall of the car window.

A group of young men and women who were supposed to be students and workers held up their hands and wrote "The New Federation Must Make War Compensation", "Request Justice for the Dead Compatriots", "Resolutely Oppose War Invasion", "The Freedom and Democracy of the New Federation is Shit" Waiting for the slogan of the projection board, surging forward on the sidewalk.

Yang Ming wondered, "Are they going to demonstrate in front of the palace?"

"Yes, sir, many students and workers have marched these days, feeling that the royal family's attitude is too weak."

Yang Ming smiled and said, "This country finally has a little more vitality."

"That's it...that, can you sign it for me?"

the guard asked in a low voice.

Seeing that Yang Ming was a little puzzled, the prison guard quickly said:

"My son and I are both your fans, Captain of the Emig!

"I know that the royal family is suppressing this news and erasing your information from the Internet, but I want to say that you are the hero who guarded the last trace of dignity in this country.

"May I?"

"Of course." Yang Ming's smile was a little embarrassed, "Where to sign?"

The prison guard excitedly stuffed the laser gun to the young colleague beside him, and lifted up the combat uniform with the shield generator, revealing...

Snow-white belly.

...

That night, Edwang came to look for Yang Ming in a hurry.

"You shouldn't have angered him, Ming," Edwan sighed, "There are too many things to do now, and I spent three hours trying to calm down the emotions of the elderly at home."

Yang Ming, who was fiddling with fitness equipment, could only curl his lips and shrug his shoulders.

"Edwang, don't you think that His Majesty the Emperor is too confident now?"

"He's always been like that."

"What he wants to do most now is to kill the powerful generals in the military," Yang Ming scolded, "If I don't provoke him, he will definitely give me this task, which will make Luofeng's national defense system Total breakdown."

Edwan sighed dejectedly, sat on the comfortable sofa beside him, and looked at the surrounding layout.

The lowest space of this prison is now Yang Ming's.

A 50-square-meter luxury gym, a master bedroom resting area covered with soft carpets, an audio-visual room equipped with 16 stereos... There is even a 25-meter-long 'above-ground swimming pool' in the corner.

Edwan shook his head: "Okay, there is nothing wrong with your handling, but we seem to have completely emptied my father without knowing it."

"You are more suitable for that position than him," Yang Ming said with a smile, "Don't worry, I know your character, and I won't attack the old emperor. Have you seen the video I gave you? Your brother will spend his life in that hospital In his later years, there will be no place to treat him badly."

Edwan frowned tightly: "Ming, can you tell me the truth? General Leon..."

"my people."

"how did you do that?"

"This is a commercial secret."

"Oh! You!" Edwan rubbed his forehead.

Yang Ming smiled and said, "Next, I'm going to the New Federation. There will be a bionic robot here...the one in the corner covered with cloth."

"What are you doing in the New Federation?"

Yang Ming said seriously: "Learn advanced production technology to enhance Luofeng's technological competitiveness."

Edwan scolded: "I thought you were going to leave the mess of Luofeng and go there to find Miss Windsor to continue your relationship! It's too risky."

"I'll make a little disguise, just don't worry," Yang Ming said slowly, "The New Federation has several technologies, I want to get them as soon as possible, and I will share them with you when the time comes, as a reward for covering me up. "

"You have done a lot for this country, there is no need to bear this kind of pressure," Edwan said sternly, "What kind of technology do you need? Maybe we can get it from other places."

"I said it all, it's a commercial secret."

Yang Ming blinked.

"Well, if you insist," Edwan asked anxiously, "how do you enter the new federation? Do you need a fake passport? The royal family has twenty-six large companies in the new federation, and I can help you cover up your identity."

Yang Ming said vaguely: "No, I have my own way, I can come back in about a few months."

Edwan hesitated to speak.

But he knew that Yang Ming's willingness to share this secret with him was an absolute trust in him.

"Take care, don't push yourself too hard, and come back safely," Edwan sighed, "Although I don't want to admit it, I need your help."

Yang Ming smiled and said, "Do you still remember our previous covenant?"

"Which covenant?"

"It's the time you ate barbecue, the one you said after drinking some wine."

Edwan said with a smile: "Of course I remember, that is the only motivation that supports me to get to the present."

Yang Ming: "Liberate this country from the shadow of the Sherman Empire and from the feudal monarchy."

Edwan: "Return power to the people."

Yang Ming: "To create a truly independent political system."

Edwan: "Let citizens enjoy prosperity, human rights, dignity and ideals."

Yang Ming clenched his left hand and stretched it out, and the two of them lightly touched each other.

...

That night.

A black shadow sneakily climbed to the highest point of the prison, and the surveillance cameras near the prison turned their view to the ground at the same time.

A beam of light flashed across the clouds, and the black shadow disappeared.

In the Feinan.

Yang Ming stepped out from under the particle conveyor, looked at the shy new crew members beside him, and immediately became much happier.
