Qi Xingyuan curled up on the sofa sadly. For the delicious food he only tasted, even if there was a pile of purified fruits on the table in front of him, it could not appease his fragile heart that was once again manipulated by his elder brother.
So what if he ordered another batch? It would take three days to ship it over. During this period, he wouldn’t be able to eat a single bite. If it wasn’t unrealistic to set off to the Desolate Star, Qi Xingyuan would like to fly there now.
Even though his grandfather is the current emperor, his father is the next emperor, and his eldest brother is the next emperor, this is the first time Qi Xingyuan has tasted such delicious thorn tomatoes. He has been shameless for many years to use the emperor’s special offer. Judging from my experience with food, it is definitely the work of a purification master. It is full of energy and tastes extremely good.
It would be great if the other party could open a store in Imperial City. Qi Xingyuan felt that he would definitely become a loyal customer. Is 1,000 Star Coins expensive? Considering his net worth, it is okay to eat tomatoes every day until he is full. What is important is the energy contained in them.
It is pure and powerful. After eating it, the whole person feels warm, and the mental energy seems to be nourished in a nutritious hot spring. It makes you feel as comfortable as you want.
Hmm… Just order another batch and stick to the upper limit. And he had to mention it to his father that night, how could such an outstanding talent be buried in the Desolate Star? Of course they must get them to the Imperial Capital Star immediately!
Qi Xingyuan never considered whether there would be any arrangements. Because of his status, he was used to being praised by the people around him, and he never did anything particularly excessive. He always had his wishes come true.
So he didn’t think there was anything wrong with his idea. He was immersed in his own imagination and couldn’t extricate himself. He even conceived a store for him, completely ignoring that the other party would not be willing to take this option. Compared with the older ones, he didn’t think there was anything wrong with his idea. For a member of the royal family, no matter in terms of age or thinking, he is really just a younger brother.
…
In the study, Xuan Qiping was talking to Qi Si, and Qi Yun, who had survived the disaster, came with him. The three siblings were similar in age and had spent the longest time together. Whether it was their posture or the tone of their words, they were quite similar. random.
“What do you think?” Xuan Qiping listened quietly to the whole incident. After pondering for a moment, he asked the question to Qi Yun, the person involved, “Did you secretly reach an agreement with her, or -”
Qi Yun sighed: “An agreement has been reached, but I think the eldest brother may not be willing.” The eldest brother he mentioned here refers to Gu Han, who is the most innocent and unlucky person in the whole incident.
Qi Si snorted coldly: “I don’t like him.”
Xuan Qiping ignored his sister’s statement: “Who have you liked?”
Qi Si turned away: “I don’t like him anyway, that guy gives me a very bad feeling. Danger is not a good thing, and if he really comes back, it will definitely be announced to the public, and the royal reputation will be implicated by that idiot Zhu Linglong. I am not willing to do it.”
Xuan Qiping said calmly: “That’s our brother. ”
Qi Si turned to look at his eldest brother unconvinced: “Then you can say that he is the illegitimate son of second uncle who lives outside. Anyway, second uncle is so romantic, having more children is not a problem. This way he can minimize public opinion and also wouldn’t it be nice to give him an identity?”
Xuan Qiping looked at his sister helplessly: “You also said that he is not a good person, so do you think he will agree?”
Qi Si choked and stiffened: “This is not our fault! Doesn’t he know that after the incident is revealed, Zhu Linglong will face multiple serious charges? After all, she is his biological mother!”
Xuan Qiping then asked: “Then what if his purpose here is just for revenge?”
Qi Si was silent for a long time, and then she said vaguely after a few minutes: “Anyway, I can’t let the reputation of the royal family be damaged by this kind of thing.”
Xuan Qiping said deeply. Sighing, he knew how stubborn this sister was. If he couldn’t fundamentally convince her today, maybe she would do something she shouldn’t do.
Qi Yun suddenly said: “Sister, you don’t have to worry about my mood. I have no idea about the position of duke. My family has trained me for so many years, but I can still earn a share of the family business with my own skills. I don’t really care if I regain my status. Moreover, even if I am not her biological son, I still have my father’s blood in my body. I am your brother after all.”
At this point, Qi Yun paused and gave Qi Si a long-lost naughty smile: “Sister, you don’t want to recognize your illegitimate brother?”
Qi Si blurted out her denial: “How is that possible?”
Qi Yun spread his hands and said, “That’s fine, let’s just wait and see what happens.”
Qi Si slapped the table hatefully: “I’m not willing to give in!”
Qi Yun stepped forward and hugged her comfortingly: “Sister, you know my temperament. I haven’t liked to argue with others since I was a child. Besides, this is what I want to do. He should take it back.”
Qi Si wanted to say something, but Xuan Qiping raised his hand to stop her: “Lin Nuo is a purification master.”
“So what!” Qi Si was a little confused after all. The name was orthodox, but what she valued more was the relationship that grew up together since childhood.
“The Federation needs such talents.” Xuan Qiping looked at his sister with burning eyes, “As the second heir to the Federation royal family, I order you not to take action against her and the people around her. This is the bottom line.”
Qi Si’s breathing quickened. After a long time, she stood at attention with a calm face and saluted: “Yes!”
Xuan Qiping did not give up. Instead, he issued a second order: “I leave her and Gu Han’s safety to you, from the moment they set foot on the God’s Capital Star until they return safely, you will be fully responsible for their vigilance and will not allow any mistakes.”
Qi Si pursed her lips and finally obeyed the order: “Yes!”
Xuan Qiping breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that his sister’s temperament and character had always made a distinction between public and private matters. Even if she was facing the person she hated the most, as long as she was given an order, she would complete it meticulously. She would never abandon public service for personal reasons or act emotionally.
Qi Yun also quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Trouble has come to him all these years. He really doesn’t want to get involved in any trouble. Rather than living a life of following the rules as the duke’s heir, he would rather fly a small spaceship and be free. Travel around the universe and be a knight who hunts down star thieves.
What a romantic career. Every time she thought of this, Qi Yun’s blood boiled and he wanted to throw all the trouble to Gu Han immediately so that he could realize his long-cherished wish for many years.
The matter came to an end on the royal side, and the matter of reporting to the higher authorities was handed over to Xuan Qiping. He first found his father, and then the two went to his grandfather’s study together. No one knew what they talked about. Qi Si and Qi Yun, who only knew about this incident, were given a temporary hush order.
Everything was calm after that, but only at a certain salon, some ladies suddenly discovered that Ms. Zhu Linglong, who had been active in the social circle, seemed to have not appeared for a long time.
…
When Lin Nuo followed the mission from Desolate Star, no, the official name was Foka Star, and arrived at Imperial City Star, it was already a month later. The Fruit and Vegetable Expo would be held in 10 days. As participants, they had to come in advance to arrange the venue and prepare Fruits and vegetables in preparation for the subsequent exhibition.
Of course, this does not include Lin Nuo. As the final weapon of the Foka Star Mission, no one dares to order her to do things. As long as she takes enough bodyguards with her when she goes out, she can go wherever she wants.
Lin Nuo was quite satisfied with this arrangement. She was not a professional to begin with, so why did she have to be an expert and direct the laymen? Wouldn’t it be nice to go shopping? At least it was the first time, and the prosperity was not comparable to her hometown known as “Desolate Star”.
It’s just that Lin Nuo’s heart is not in fun. In addition to participating in the Expo, she has other purposes for coming to the Imperial City this time.
Such as Gu Han’s identity, such as the Lin family’s troubles.
Now that Lin Nuo has officially reached adulthood, the Lin family has no control over her. It is impossible to do anything on the surface, but secretly, it is hard to say. Although her status as the chief purifier of the Desolate Star Purification Association can bring a layer of protection to Lin Nuo, she does not want to put all her eggs in one basket, but also wants to take the opportunity to win more trump cards for herself.
Gu Han didn’t believe that Qi Si and Qi Yun would say nothing after they returned, but he didn’t see any special moves from the royal family these days, nor did they say a single word to him, so he knew that the other party wanted to suppress this matter. On a small scale, they didn’t want to make a big fuss.
Sure enough, the day after they arrived at the Imperial Capital Star, Qi Si personally brought someone to see them. He mentioned the matter in a vague way, hoping that they would be aware of current affairs and not spread the scandal of the royal family all over the world.
There will definitely be compensation, but not necessarily rectification of the name. Anyone familiar with the matter knows that Gu Han has been wronged, but this may be the best solution.
Regardless of whether he is willing or not, Gu Han has no evidence to prove that he is Ms. Zhu Linglong’s eldest son, so there are many solutions to this matter, it just depends on what others want to do.
“I don’t want to fight them to death, it’s pointless.” In a private room of a restaurant, Gu Han said to Lin Nuo, who was looking at the menu, “You have also seen the conditions given there. I think there is still room for negotiation. We can ask for some more benefits.”
Lin Nuo snorted unhappily, randomly selected a few dishes with pleasing names, then closed the ordering interface, and then said lazily: “I’ll give you any benefits you want. It’s good for us to compensate you, little brother.”
Gu Han raised his eyebrows: “You mean, this isn’t the end?”
Lin Nuo rested her elbow on the table, leaning forward slightly, with a sly light in her eyes and whispered: “All the material benefits have been collected, and then you will establish your identity as having nothing to do with the royal family – a gentleman’s revenge, it is not too late in ten years, guess what they will think after we become important figures in the Interstellar Alliance?”
Gu Han thought thoughtfully: “Excellent talents, huge benefits, and a reputation that will be worshiped by the whole star… The royal family could have gotten a share of the pie based on blood relationship, but because of the current decision, they can’t get involved… Tsk, come to think of it. I think it’s wonderful.”
Lin Nuo blinked: “That’s for the future, don’t worry, but for now we can collect a wave of interest first, and then you can ask Ms. Zhu Linglong to participate in the Expo. She has to witness your excellence with her own eyes.”
“I know her kind of person very well, and she will not feel guilty for abandoning you, but if you let her know that she has chosen the wrong path, the better you are, the more painful she will feel. When there is no comparison, there is no harm.”
“Think about it, Gu Han, what better way to punish her than this?”
