Counterattack [Interstellar] - Chapter 90
Allen sighed in his heart. He turned his back considerately and did not speak. After a long time, Pei Xuan calmed down and said coldly, “Thank you for allowing me to talk to him.”
Allen chuckled softly: “I also appreciate that you didn’t have the urge to say something that shouldn’t be said to him.”
“I will recognize Pei Yao sooner or later.” Pei Xuan’s eyes were still red, but there was no movement in his eyes. He said solemnly, “He is my only child, and I will never give up acknowledging him.”
The only child…
Thirty years have passed since Pei Xuan disappeared. Although Pei Xuan is old but still young, it is not difficult to have another child. After so many years, he has not been able to have another child… Allen hesitated: “Mrs. Zun… “
Pei Xuan paused and said, “I’m still alive, but…the body is not very good and it is not suitable for childbearing.”
Allen didn’t ask any further. He wanted to know how difficult it was to escape from the main force of Leistine, and then he went into exile for 30 years. The hard work can be imagined. Pei Xuan said indifferently: “We too I have never thought about having other children. Our son is very healthy and he is still alive. We don’t need someone to replace him to comfort us.”
Allen nodded: “When the time is right in the future…I will explain to Pei Yao.”
“No need.” Pei Xuan interrupted Alan indifferently, “Father and son’s nature, I will personally explain everything to him over the years, Your Highness, it’s up to you to explain to me now. You usually cheat my son like this. ?”
Allen slowly sat back on the sofa and smiled faintly: “Did you mean just now? Yes… I don’t deny it.”
“Pei Yao has inherited many of your excellent qualities, one of which is that he cares very much about the person he loves, and it can almost be said that he will think of you wholeheartedly.” Allen’s words are cautious, trying his best to avoid making Pei Xuan feel that he is showing off. “I think you already felt that when he was young, how much he cares about you and his wife.”
Pei Xuan still looked at Ellen indifferently, and Ellen continued: “You know my situation. I’ve been attacked by the enemy. Sometimes it is inevitable that there will be minor accidents. In order not to worry him, I occasionally lie to him.”
Allen looked at Pei Xuan and said, “Maybe it’s not fair to Pei Yao, but I insist.”
Pei Xuan looked at Ellen, as if judging the truth or falsehood in Ellen’s words, Pei Yao narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a low voice: “I know you are intentionally making me think you value him very much.”
Allen lowered his head and smiled: “The truth is the same.”
Allen put his hand gently on the armrest of the sofa and said sincerely: “I try my best to show you how much I love him, and because I love him, I want his relatives to recognize me. Admiral, I think I can let Pei Yao is happy.”
“Happiness?” Pei Xuan sneered. “Pei Yao could have had a guide, but he gave up combining with the guide for you and chose an ordinary person. This means that he will be with the tranquilizer for the rest of his life, and he will also receive it. When you reach the limit, you will never be able to maximize your abilities!”
Allen looked at Pei Xuan and took a deep breath, Pei Xuan sneered: “How are you going to make up for my son at this point, Your Highness?”
For a moment, Allen almost wanted to have a showdown with Pei Xuan.
Tranquilizer? Pei Yao hasn’t used that kind of thing for almost a year. Alan and Pei Yao have always been intimate, and the shallow bond between the two has never been broken. As long as Pei Yao feels a little unwell, maybe Pei Yao himself hasn’t noticed it. And Allen’s mental power tentacles are already comforting him. Allen’s mental power is different from other guides. With his care, Pei Yao’s mood and state have been kept in the best state.
It was this time when he left the main star, Alan also repeatedly established short-term marks on Pei Yao before he left. Not surprisingly, before he returned to the main star, Pei Yao’s state would be very stable and he would never need a tranquilizer.
Allen closed his eyes and suppressed the thoughts in his mind, and said, “You should know Princess Jenny and Prince Adair.”
“You should have heard of how close their husband and wife are.” Allen smiled, “They are also a combination of sentinels and ordinary people, but this did not affect their marriage.”
Allen whispered: “Of course, I really owe Pei Yao on this point. I have also tried to make up for him in other ways. I hope you can see my sincerity.”
Pei Xuan didn’t say a word about this, but instead said: “You are here to solve Tara’s mineral problems?”
Allen shook his head: “I’m here to find you, by the way, to find out about the situation here.”
“Straightforwardly, a peaceful solution is impossible. As you see, the Tara people live underground and cannot accept such devastating large-scale mining activities. No one wants to wake up and find that they have been buried alive.” Pei Xuan glanced at the virtual window on the side and said, “And the minerals here are the main source of income for the Tara people. The Tara people have lived on them for thousands of years. Now Alston wants to embezzle these minerals, huh… …”
As an exile, Pei Xuan can have his own secret army, and he can have countless advanced military equipment. If he wants to come, it is also related to the unique minerals here. Allen paused and said: “I will try my best to mediate and try to stop Austria. Ston’s plan.”
Pei Xuan chuckled: “Suddenly transferred Balk away, his patience should have been exhausted? Is he going to fight directly or play some tricks? It is estimated that it is the latter…Is it to spread the disease and forcibly evacuate the Tara people, or Should toxic substances be leaked, and humanitarian aid should be given to the Tara people?”
Allen sighed again in his heart, his Pei Yao is just as aggressive as his father’s three-pointer.
“Leaking toxic substances.” Allen pointed to his feet. “Things are on this starship. To be honest, Alston only gave me one month, and one month could not persuade the Tara people to move out of the mining area. I should make an accident.”
Without waiting for Pei Xuan to speak, Allen said again: “Don’t worry, I will deal with Alston… there won’t be any problems here.”
Pei Xuan looked at Alan, seemingly distrustful, and said in a deep voice, “I believe you for the time being.”
Pei Xuan brought back the electronic eyes again, and skillfully retracted the photon gun in his waist, Allen frowned: “You…”
“What?” Pei Xuan’s thin lips pressed into a line and said, “What else do you want to tell me?”
Allen thought for a while and smiled calmly: “It’s nothing, I look forward to seeing you and Pei Yao as soon as possible.”
Pei Xuan did not speak, turned and disappeared in the cabin.
Not long after, Allen’s courtesy officer hurried over. After confirming that Allen was okay, he breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said: “Please don’t take personal risks again… in case Admiral Pei Xuan On impulse, you…”
Allen tapped the armrest of the sofa with his slender fingers and smiled faintly: “Don’t worry, didn’t you set the hidden valve hidden here for me? I’ll be fine.”
The ceremonial officer glanced at the sofa with a lingering fear: “That doesn’t fully guarantee your safety…How are you discussing with Admiral Pei Xuan?”
Allen briefly talked about the situation before, and the ceremonial officer was puzzled: “Since Admiral Pei Xuan is not satisfied that you are not a guide, why don’t you…”
“Who knows that he won’t turn to use this as a handle to threaten Alston when he knows it?” Allen laughed to himself, “Pei Xuan wanted revenge, because Pei Yao wanted to kill me in the first place. I can’t control my life. Give the secret to him.” Only now, both Ellen and Pei Xuan had a tacit understanding of not mentioning the original incident on the Pearl, but this does not mean that Ellen has forgotten the original danger.
“And once Auston receives a threat, the first thing he thinks of is to betray me to protect himself. At that time, I was the real enemy.”
Thinking about what Auston has done to Allen over the years, the ceremonial officer has a deep concern, and he lowered his eyes and said: “I am reckless, please forgive me.”
Allen shook his head and sighed lightly: “Fortunately, I’m sure about one thing. Pei Xuan, like me, has to endure each other for the sake of Pei Yao.”
The ceremonial officer nodded: “Yes… and I think Admiral Pei Xuan sees that you love His Royal Highness so dearly, and he probably feels softened.”
“I won’t be soft-hearted, but I will probably be a little more jealous when I do it in the future.”
The ceremonial officer smiled relievedly: “Not necessarily. Even if Admiral Pei Xuan does not appreciate your friendship with your Royal Concubine, you should also worry about the importance your Royal Concubine attaches to you. The general and the crown concubine have not seen each other for many years, and the relationship is no longer comparable to that of you and the prince. Your concubine is getting close, but… It’s a pity that Admiral Pei Xuan has a deep taboo against you, otherwise, if you join hands with you, you can have a powerful help.”
Allen laughed: “At present, as long as he doesn’t hinder me and Pei Yao, I’m satisfied, let’s talk about the others… Order Pei Yao’s internal servant to prepare.”
The ceremonial officer bowed: “Yes.”
Alice, the chef accidentally prepared Pei Yao in the evening and didn’t like food. Pei Yao had lunch late, and the dinner was not quite right, so he only moved a little bit. The attorney repeatedly asked Pei Yao if he was unwell, Pei Yao They all smiled and said that it was okay, and his diet record couldn’t deceive anyone. The attorney cautiously invited the doctor who often diagnosed Allen to come and check Pei Yao that night.
The doctor who has always been Lao Cheng made some fuss about this accident. Pei Yao didn’t rest well recently because he missed Alan, and it became evidence of his illness. The doctor did not dare to be careless. Pei Yao himself didn’t care much about the wind-heat syndrome. He only asked the doctor to prescribe medicine for himself, and told everyone to keep quiet. Pei Yao’s internal maid agreed to face to face, but later, fearing Allen’s blame, he sent the prince down. The news of the concubine’s illness was secretly notified to Allen’s courtesy officer.
The next day, Allen, who was extremely worried, submitted an application to His Majesty the Emperor, asking him to return to Alice to personally take care of the sick Prince. Auston had no choice but to approve, and Allen’s starship set off on the return journey that day.
