Interstellar Fairy Tale - Chapter 140
Although the goodwill deal with the emperor is not on the table, Harlan? Edrich was not surprised by the arrival of goodwill. However, seeing the “goods” that the Governor was carrying, Harlan? Edrich couldn’t help raising one eyebrow. These people are clearly soldiers. What is the purpose of goodwill sending this group of people here? Soran Edrich’s attitude is also strange. He didn’t care what Goodwill brought these people to, he just told Harlan to do as Goodwill asked him to do. Harlan? Surprised, Edrich went through the handover procedures as quickly as possible, and sent everyone on the two transport ships to Saisha’s ground prison. Sai Xia has always been “hospitable”, and has a taste of not refusing to come.
“Your Excellency. Thank you very much for your help.”
“It’s nothing, but, are you sure you want to keep these people in Saisha?” Even become clone soldiers?
“Of course, I trust His Majesty’s generosity.”
One of Goodwill’s deals with Soran Edrich included armed assistance, and these Mars people would become the best clone troopers. I believe Soran Edrich will not refuse.
Harlan? Edrich looked at the black-haired man standing in front of him, and always felt that there was something in Goodwill’s words. However, what interests him more at this moment is not the goodwill himself, but the tall man who finally stepped off the transport ship. He wears the same military uniform as the others, but he doesn’t have the dejected temperament of others. Moreover, this man looks familiar…
Governor’s Palace
The moment Shang Ping saw Goodwill, he didn’t know whether to be happy or to throw the gift in his hand at the man. It should be a happy thing to be able to punch an irregularly shaped hole in his head.
“Baby, I’m here to pick you up, are you happy?”
Goodwill didn’t seem to see Shang Ping’s distorted expression at all. He walked to Shang Ping’s side in a few steps, picked up Shang Ping and turned around, shaking the weight in his arms, and said dissatisfiedly: “It seems to be lighter than before. Little. Didn’t the great emperor of the empire give you food? I want to make a solemn protest to him! But it doesn’t matter, I will make it up for you when I go back with my father!”
go back?
what!
Shang Ping clenched his fist with his right hand and knocked on the palm of his left hand. Yes, he was the “hostage” that Goodwill had pledged to Soran Edrich. Since the cheap dad appeared, it meant that the transaction must have gone smoothly. Then he acted as a hostage and a bargaining chip. The career can be over soon. Finally, there is no need to worry about guessing Soran Edrich’s strange attitude, and there is no need to worry about losing his life due to the sudden change of attitude of the emperor.
However, Shang Ping felt a little uncomfortable.
He is not a character that will be punished, not to mention that Goodwill is his biological father, but precisely because Goodwill is his father, Shang Ping can’t be so generous that he doesn’t care about anything.
However, after Goodwill made a request to Soran Edrich, Shang Ping immediately realized that it was totally unnecessary for him to struggle with these! Because Soran Edrich had no intention of letting him go.
“I don’t agree.” Soran Edrich sat on the large back chair, his long legs crossed, his fingers in white gloves gently rubbed the golden pattern on the edge of the armrest, his voice was calm and firm, “I will not Let him go, Your Excellency.”
Realizing that Soran Edrich was not joking, Goodwill finally put the smile on his face.
“Your Majesty, I thought we had reached a consensus.”
“Oh?”
“I’ll give you a power stone, and I’ll give you the planet that contains the power stone,” said the goodwill of not smiling, and his temperament became sharp, like the sharpest weapon, “but this does not include my son.”
“It’s a pity that you sent him to me with your own hands, in my hands.” Soran Edrich raised his elbows seemingly indifferently, with a trace of long silver hair wrapped around his fingertips. The king’s impending victory flashed in his eyes, “I want your son, and I don’t accept rejection.”
Yes, he does not accept rejection. The attitude towards goodwill is already a concession he can make. If it weren’t for some kind of complicated emotional factor, Soran Edrich didn’t have to worry about goodwill, or even Shang Ping himself, he could directly bring Shang Ping back to Ivan Summer Palace. He is the king of the universe, and he has this ability. Soran Edrich himself was surprised by not doing so. Perhaps he knew the consequences of doing so, and once he remembered the golden wagtail that could no longer sing and could not fly, the willful monarch made an unprecedented concession.
Well, he’ll ask the other’s father’s permission. This was an important lesson taught by the court etiquette officer, and Soran Edrich didn’t take it seriously, but out of respect for his future partner, the young dictator felt that he still needed to make a certain gesture.
However, as Soran Edrich told Shang Ping, his patience was also limited.
Leaving the father and son a day to consider, tomorrow, the emperor and his party will go to Count Reichardt’s family leader, Oga. No matter what the answer is, it cannot influence the emperor’s decision. Once Soran Edrich doesn’t intend to continue playing ambiguous games, Shang Ping’s identity will change completely.
The emperor left, goodwill and Shang Ping and his son still looked at each other in dismay. Goodwill was silent for two seconds, suddenly sighed, and hugged Shang Ping, who had played the role of the set board from beginning to end, “Son, it’s about you, why don’t you speak?”
“Is it necessary?” In fact, what Shang Ping really wanted to say was “Is it useful?” Obviously, it was useless, so he kept silent.
“…Indeed.” Goodwill let go of Shang Ping, rubbed his chin and said, “It’s troublesome to raise a child that is too beautiful… But, baby, what did you do to that willful emperor? How could he have such a bad relationship with you? a thought?”
Shang Ping looked at Goodwill’s ambiguous expression, his two fists clenched and loosened, loosened and clenched again, repeated several times, but did not wave to a face very similar to himself, “I doubt, you really are My biological father?”
Goodwill held Shang Ping’s face and looked at him very seriously, “Of course! This is undeniable. However, I did not expect this.”
Goodwill thought that everything was under control, and the plan was indeed going smoothly, but he did not expect that there would be variables in the middle.
The emperor of the empire asked him to hand over his son! If the emperor was simply interested in Shang Ping, or if he really regarded Shang Ping as a “lover” as rumored, it would be fine. Goodwill is similar to the idea of shangping. As long as the problem can be solved by simple means, it is not a problem. But the emperor’s attitude is obviously not so simple. If what Soran Edrich wants is not a lover, nor a pet, but a partner… Thinking of this possibility, Goodwill really had a headache and involuntarily looked at the businessman who was sitting idle on the sofa peeling oranges. Ping, Goodwill shuddered. His son is indeed smart. Although his personality is a bit awkward, he is generally decent. It can be seen that he has grown a lot during this time. However, the monarch of the Golden Empire chose a boy from an alien galaxy as his partner? This is really out of the ordinary! If his guess is true, Goodwill is convinced that even if Soran Edrich reveals a little word, Shang Ping will have to follow him every step of the way, otherwise, those nobles who are staring at the other side of the emperor’s throne will definitely won’t let him go.
With a helpless sigh, Goodwill said almost complaining: “Baby, what do you like to be so attractive?”
Shang Ping continued to peel the second orange, but there was a blue vein on his forehead. Can fruit knives kill people? can you…
“Okay, let’s not talk about this for now.” Goodwill pulled Shang Ping, “Come with me and take you to meet someone.”
“See who?”
“Edgar.”
Shang Ping was stunned, “Why is Uncle Edgar here?”
“I caught him.” Goodwill said with a smile, even with a hint of deliberate bragging in his tone, “Mars sent a voyage fleet, I defeated them, and then caught Edgar as the commander, It’s that simple.”
“Only Uncle Edgar?”
“No, there are many, many Mars warriors, the best warriors.”
Shang Ping stopped and held back his goodwill, “Father, what exactly do you want to do?”
“I told you long ago.” Goodwill said with a smile: “I want to destroy Mars.”
The father and son looked at each other silently, and Shang Ping found sadly that being a happy ostrich is not suitable for everyone. He always knew what Goodwill planned, but Goodwill never told him personally. Not saying goodwill doesn’t mean he doesn’t know anything. When Goodwill chose to tell him, he also put a multiple-choice question in front of him. Shang Ping can only choose one of the two, there is no third way for him to go.
Either betray Mars, or abandon his father.
“Father, is there no other choice?”
“My answer is yes.” Goodwill grabbed Shang Ping’s hand, “Baby, you are actually very lucky, at least, you can still choose. Some people have no choice but to accept it, like I’m like your mother and sister.”
Are you lucky? Shang Ping didn’t know.
“Father.”
“kindness?”
“I grew up in Mars, and I was raised by Uncle Edgar. But, I am your son. That will never change.”
The father and son looked at each other silently, and when Shang Ping said this, there was a sense of relief. It was as if a sword hanging from his neck suddenly fell. In the end, he chose his father, perhaps, this is the best choice for him at this stage, or should be said, the most favorable choice.
Goodwill just looked at him silently, his eyes became complicated and incomprehensible, and then he sighed and said, “I don’t want to force you, baby, if you really don’t want to choose, then…”
“I’ve made a choice.”
The soft-heartedness of goodwill is not true. If Shang Ping cuts off goodwill without hesitation, since he has made a choice, then he should not give himself a chance to turn back. Shang Ping doesn’t think indecision is a good idea for him now. Until the father and son entered the room where Edgar was being held, they did not bring up the subject again.
