Counterattack [Interstellar] - Chapter 112
For the whole year, His Majesty mentioned the Queen for the first time: I hope he is healthy and return to his side as soon as possible.
In just a few hours, Allen’s words spread to every corner of the empire.
Don’t blame everyone for making a fuss. This is the first time Allen has expressed his emotions in public since he came to the throne. After a year of turbulent events, many people suddenly recalled… In fact, their emperor, His Majesty, He was also an affectionate young prince, a gentle lover.
Think of the sweetness of the relationship between His Majesty the Emperor and the Queen at the birthday party of the first Emperor Auston; think of the hard work of two people building a building on the ground and slowly building an academy on Alice Star; think of Alan After being named the crown prince, they frequently asked everyone to call Pei Yao as the guardian and domineering of “His Royal Highness”; think about the two people who resisted all their tolerance and responsibility when the crisis came.
Think about it now, one is going far away for love, the other is fighting the endgame for the country.
It is impossible not to be embarrassed.
The pain of the past is fading away. Everyone’s hatred for Pei Xuan has disappeared, and replaced by sympathy and tolerance for His Majesty the Emperor and His Royal Highness. They did not commit any serious mistakes. Why did they end up bearing the pain? Are they?
I don’t know who started it first. The people suddenly broke out to petition Allen and Pei Yao. All kinds of demonstrations continued for a while, and many people began to submit petitions to the House, asking the House to deal with it. The guilt of His Majesty the Emperor and His Majesty the Queen, and the Queen’s Royal Highness will be returned to the main star as soon as possible.
“He pardoned everyone, but forgot about himself-our eternally silent emperor.”
“So far, more than 100 million hidden guides have been re-accepted by the empire. We have accepted everyone, but we have forgotten the person we should forgive most-Alan Norman.”
“He is the emperor who has contributed the most in the history of the empire, and the emperor who owes the people the most. We owe him a queen.”
“His Royal Highness does not return to His Majesty one day. As a hidden guide, I do not deserve to be happy one day.”
…
Bark sighed while looking at several topics that had been frequently mentioned recently. He looked at Alan and smiled relievedly: “Your Majesty, your hard work has not been wasted. With the support of the people, the following things will be easier to handle.”
Allen smiled faintly: “It is useless to take him back to please the royal family and the House. I will not persecute them. The people will spontaneously pressure them.”
Allen put down the files in his hand and raised his head and said: “Tara has been experiencing frequent magnetic storms recently, how is he? Can his body still adapt?”
Bark was dispatched by Allen to Tara to perform an official business not long ago. He heard the words and said quickly: “Very good. His Royal Highness is still very enthusiastic about public welfare. Every day is very fulfilling. The main star restricts reporting on royal news. In Tara As well as the surrounding star regions, the gracious and benevolent character of Her Royal Highness is well known. Even the Carothers League has reported on the Queen’s deeds many times.”
Allen nodded slightly, Barker patted his forehead, smiled bitterly: “I forgot…”
“Your Royal Highness is in good health. You have almost dispatched all the doctors who have served the royal family for generations to Tara. They did not dare to neglect, and did their best to treat His Highness’s body. Now the old wounds on His Highness are completely healed.” Barr Ke picked up what Ellen cared about, and talked about it for a long time. “The food is also good. The main star has to deliver the ingredients there every day. Tara’s chef and pastry chef are also selected by you, Your Highness I have been eating the food from here this year without any problems of unsuitability.”
“I saw it with my own eyes. With your careful arrangements and someone to supervise, the people on Tara’s side did not dare to be dedicated to His Royal Highness. With your instruction and the care of His Royal Highness’s biological parents, Your Royal Highness has a very good life. Oh, by the way, following your instructions, I told your Highness to ask him to smoke as little as possible in the future. Your Highness agreed, and I must remember to reply to you and he will pay attention so that you don’t worry about him.”
“Actually, before I came back, Your Highness asked me the same question.” Bark smiled helplessly, “I told him about your situation, but… you know, if your Highness wants to know you, then There are so many channels. It is meaningless for me to conceal anything. Your Royal Highness asks me to persuade you to pay attention to your body and not to overwork yourself.”
Allen nodded silently, and said slowly for a while: “Although I don’t expect the royal family to behave, it is better for someone to stand up at this time.”
Barker froze for a moment and realized that Alan was still talking about what he had just done, and nodded repeatedly: “Yes, although the people are enthusiastic, there is no significant person to take the lead…” Was Lun hinting at himself, and tentatively said: “It’s better to let me…”
“No, I didn’t mean that.” Alan waved his hand gently, “You have done a lot for me this year, I am very grateful, but it is better to let the orthodox royal family handle this matter… …”
“How about Mrs. Jenny?” Bark suggested. “She is your aunt and the one who once had the right to inherit the royal family. This identity is enough.”
Allen still shook his head: “It is well-known that my aunt has a close relationship with me, and her suggestion is easy to cause criticism… Forget it, I will think about it.” Allen smiled at Balk, “Before that. Thank you for your hard work.”
Barker waved his hand indifferently and retired.
Just as Allen hesitated, Cadbury came to him with unexpected news: the first emperor Auston submitted a document to the House, and he explained that as the first emperor a year ago. Regretting the role Allen played in the accident and his position as the new emperor afterwards, Auston believes that the House should not face the petitions of the people with silence, but should face the problem squarely and consider the feasibility of this.
By the way, Alston secretly pointed out that the separate exile regulations for privately combining guides and sentries had been abolished a year ago. The House and Allen should have forgiven and comforted the guides and sentries who had just been convicted of exile.
Auston never said a word publicly at Cadbury this year. Under this circumstance, he suddenly stood up and caused an explosive sensation. After being accused by name and surname, the House finally could not say anything. No more scruples, began to actively participate in the work of commuting the sentence for the Queen.
Alan was silent for a long time after receiving the news, and then told his courtesy officer: “Make arrangements, I’m going to Cadbury Star.”
A year later, when the father and son met again, they were no longer in a state of tension, and Auston, whose temper gradually became calm, even made Allen a pot of fried tea for Allen, saying, “Drink,” Not poisonous.”
Allen didn’t speak, picked up the tea cup and took a sip, quiet and clear.
“It’s pretty good here, with good weather, good scenery, many farms, and everything in the palace is almost self-sufficient.” Alston glanced at Allen in a profound way and sarcastically said, “Compared to Anthony, you treat me well. It’s very good.”
Allen poured himself a cup of tea: “After the queen returns to the main star, I will propose to gradually relax the restrictions on you and allow you to occasionally visit the surrounding star regions.”
Allston laughed at himself: “Are you reporting the document that you sent to the House before reporting me?”
Allen did not deny: “You helped me, I naturally have to respond one or two, not to mention that I may still need your help.”
Allston shook his head: “No, although I am trapped here, I know something about the situation outside. Even without me, as long as you are here, Pei Yao will come back sooner or later, and I am not trying to help you this time. “
Allen frowned, paused and stood up and said, “Okay, I’m more relieved if you don’t ask for anything.”
“I don’t want to ask who am I for?” Allen looked at Alan, bowed his head and said in a deep voice, “In a few months… it will be the 20th anniversary of Marian’s death.”
A look of hostility flashed in Allen’s eyes, and Aston whispered: “If she is still there, she should help you.”
Queen Marianne, who died young, was always a dagger between the two. Every time she mentioned it, she felt a heart-wrenching pain. Alan pressed her lips tightly and said coldly: “It’s rare that you remember her.”
“Ellen, you may not believe it, but I really love Marianne. I have fallen in love with her since the first time I saw her.” Alston looked up at Ellen and closed his eyes. He sighed deeply, “Don’t think I am repenting, even when I was still in the throne, whenever you ask, I will say the same.”
“You have always hated me, thinking that I have never loved her, but ruined her life.” Alston’s throat tightened, and he continued after a moment of silence, “I admit the latter, but the former…don’t care about you. Believe it or not, I really loved her.”
“And the cruelest thing I have done to Marianne is not this…”
I don’t know if the relationship between Ellen and Pei Yao touched Alston, or it’s approaching Marian’s death day. After seeing Ellen’s aqua-blue eyes that resemble Marian, Alston could hardly control himself, and suddenly wanted to These words were spoken to Ellen, or Marian who had been dead for twenty years.
“The cruelest thing I have done to her was at the end of the day. She might have loved me.” Alston suddenly dumbed his throat, and he lowered his head and rubbed his face. “Just before you were born… …I can feel that, whether it’s pheromone or other reasons, at least she has started to try to love me, but unfortunately, everything is ruined by me.”
Alan looked at Auston coldly, and Anthony was almost of adulthood when Queen Marian was pregnant with herself.
Auston’s eyes were red, and he opened his mouth but couldn’t speak anymore. He took a deep breath, got up suddenly and walked to the window, waved his hand for a long while, beckoning Allen to leave.
Allen didn’t stay much longer and left Cadbury that day. After Allen boarded the starship, Allen’s current attendant faxed him a letter, which was not signed, but Allen could tell at a glance that it was Allen’s handwriting.
“Although saying this now will only make you sick, but after thinking about it, I still have to tell you, at least to make you understand that our family may have been happy once.”
“Let’s start from the beginning. After successfully succeeding to the throne, I am very proud and need a beautiful, gentle, and well-born wife. Marianne appeared in front of me at that time. She is much wiser than her peers and sees things very thoroughly. , And at the same time compassionate, with the innocence and liveliness of a young girl, it is almost…like an angel. When I saw her from Baita for the first time, I almost thought that I saw an angel, that is, at that time, I knew myself. Must marry her.”
“I could hardly wait for her to graduate. I asked her to marry me, but she rejected me. I was crazy… Knowing that Bark would turn my face with me, I still forced her to mark her, and Bark ended up doing it for my daughter. I endured it, but since then he separated from me and didn’t have a good face to me anymore, but I think these values are worth it.”
“But Marian was not happy for a moment after marriage. I tried to treat her well. I held a dance party for her, built a palace for her, and bought all kinds of dresses and jewelry for her. But she was never happy. In private, she almost Can’t be in the same room with me, I know, she always hates me.”
“But she still worked hard to cooperate with me in public. She tried her best to be a queen and treat this as a job.”
“You know what happened afterwards. I don’t want to explain anything for myself. I did it. Jenny always thinks that I am for the emperor’s heir. Actually, it is not. I just feel tired. I regret marrying one. I can’t love it. My own queen, Anthony was born at that time, but I have never loved Bettina from the beginning to the end. In my eyes, she will never be comparable to your mother.”
“I used to think that was good, until Marianne said to me that she was pregnant with a blushing face.”
“The drunk I drank that day was so drunk, Marianne thought I was too happy, only Jenny knows why…To this day, even the expeditionary army has not made me regret it, but Anthony has already confirmed it. Existing, he has even awakened as a sentry, and everything is too late.”
“You know everything afterwards, and I won’t say more, Ellen, although you don’t want to admit it, you actually understand it in your heart. There are many similarities in our personalities, but you are more successful than me because you have never I didn’t spare my love, and I gave it all to Pei Yao.”
“If I could concentrate as much as you did, and Marianne, it would probably be another ending.”
After reading the letter, Alan was silent for a while, and finally threw the letter paper into the shredder.
