interstellar fairy tale

Chapter 177

On January [-], [-] in the Milky Way Calendar, when the Emperor of the Golden Empire, Soran Edrich, appeared in front of his subjects holding the Queen's hand, all the people were caught in the wild cheers and the intoxicating atmosphere of flowers. middle.

The wedding car made of gold and diamonds dragged a dazzling trail of light in the blue sky.The emperor, as beautiful as a star, with dazzling silver hair, is more dazzling than the crown inlaid with gems.Dressed in gold and silver, holding an imperial scepter, symbolizing the supreme authority and majesty of the emperor.The young queen is by the side of the emperor, with black hair and brown eyes. People who see the queen for the first time will always be surprised by his youth. The 25-year-old emperor and the younger queen are tantamount to showing respect to the whole world. The empire declared that forging ahead and being diligent will lead the future direction of the empire.

The wedding car of the emperor and the queen moved forward slowly, and the subjects who looked up at the young ruler of the empire raised their arms high. The cheers of "Long live the emperor" and "Long live the queen" overwhelmed the roar of the aircraft. , Small aircraft with noble family crests were constantly launched into the sky, paying tribute to the emperor and empress with the highest etiquette.

Soran Aldrich looked down at his subjects, raised one hand and waved it lightly, and the cheers became more enthusiastic.

Shang Ping had seen the crazy belief in Solan Edrich by the subjects of this empire, and he was a bystander at that time.Now, standing by the emperor's side, immersed in this kind of frenzy, he realized that this kind of enthusiasm is so terrifying, yet easily fascinated.

This is the magic of power.Seemingly intangible, tasted carefully, but like the most mellow wine, you can't put down the glass.

However, just like Grand Duchess Manxia Edrich warned Shang Ping, what you get, you must give.He has the power and status that others can't easily match, and he has to pay the price.He has already experienced it, hasn't he?

The held hand, even through the cool, thin and silky cloth, could still feel the temperature of the emperor's palm.In fact, the emperor's body temperature was very low, but Shang Ping could feel a scorching heat from his fingertips.

"Smile and wave to them." Solan Edrich approached Shang Ping's ear and said, his voice was not loud, but it was heard clearly in Shang Ping's ears, "From now on, they will also are your subjects."

Taking a deep breath, Shang Ping closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his smile had perfectly concealed the last trace of nervousness and uncertainty.Following the example of Soran Edrich, he raised his hand and waved it towards where he could see. The fragrant rain of flower petals blocked his sight. In the blur, only the enthusiastic cheers like a tsunami came into his ears , surrounded all of him.

Shang Ping suddenly felt a little panicked.He raised his head involuntarily, and looked at Soran Edrich, his deep blue eyes broke into his line of sight, followed by a light kiss on his forehead.

"Don't be afraid. You once hijacked my flagship in a single-man fighter jet and knocked me out. Let my subjects see the courage of their queen."

The voice with a smile calmed Shang Ping's emotions, and he had to admit that Soran Edrich's comfort was very effective.

In the next trip, Shang Ping never appeared in such a trance again.Regarding this, the court etiquette officer who had been following the wedding car team nodded in satisfaction.It's just that Meyer, the capital security minister beside him, has a strangely distorted expression.In any case, he couldn't forget about this terrible man who had just destroyed a Guard force's backup aircraft not long ago, just because he was happy!

Harlan Edrich was supposed to follow the wedding car with other members of the royal family, but he boarded Admiral Ida's flagship with Lieutenant General Metz and participated in an important part of the royal wedding.

When the wedding car of the emperor and empress arrived at the designated place, the roar of warships covered the cheers, and the imperial fleet formed a half-moon shape and appeared above the capital.Following the instructions issued by the signal tower, millions of laser salutes roared and intertwined the shocking music, which pushed the atmosphere of the royal wedding to a climax.

After three rounds of salutes were fired, the hatch of the warship opened, and the huge humanoid engineer mecha and battle mecha came out one after another, forming the most orderly line. , From the armor cabin of the engineer mecha, I took out one by one, the colorful and eye-catching flower baskets...

However, this time, besides the multicolored flower petals, there are also various gemstones the size of rice grains swaying towards the sky...

Occasionally, a certain engineer mecha will raise its calf, clasp its hands downward, and turn its toes sideways up—yes, it’s a so-called second-hand posture that Lolita must use, while the fighter mech standing on the shoulder of the engineer mecha is Unaffected at all, it continued to sprinkle petals and gems.While sprinkling, simulate shouting with a mechanical voice: "Long live the emperor! Long live the queen!"

If you ignore the cold sound of the mechanical tablet, this is indeed quite novel...

Shang Ping looked at the humanoid mechas who were obviously "two" with enthusiasm, and turned his head stiffly to look at Soran Edrich. Sure enough, the smile on the corner of the emperor's mouth was already a little stiff.

"Is this also arranged?" Shang Ping asked uncertainly.He clearly remembered that there were only salutes, no mechas!

"No." The emperor's voice was calm, but there was a hint of gnashing of teeth.

"Oh." Shang Ping nodded, and added a redundant sentence, "Actually, this also proves how flexible these mechs are..."

The emperor turned his head to look at Shang Ping, and said, "Apart from this, is there anything else you want to say?"

"...Okay, I just want to go back to the palace now." Shang Ping turned his head and cried silently. Such a "two" mecha is really, too embarrassing...

And on the flagship, Harlan Edrich and Lieutenant General Metz were complacent about the wedding presents given to the emperor and empress, and they didn't see Admiral Ida's face as black as the bottom of a pot standing behind them.

Who can tell him, how the hell should he explain this to His Majesty the Emperor? !

Of course, all the people in the capital who witnessed it and the citizens of the empire who received the live broadcast would not realize that this was a sudden farce at all, and they would only relish the details of this different wedding.You know, the wedding between Heiny III and Queen Yilan was nothing special, but Solan II's wedding once again allowed the entire empire to see the youth of the emperor and queen—huh—and vitality?

Goodwill, who was dressed in an imperial dress, mixed with Edgar in the crowd watching the ceremony. Under Edgar's firm opposition, Goodwill finally stopped wearing a skirt, but the gorgeous men's dress still made Edgar The corners of his eyes twitched.It has to be said that the aesthetics of Shangping and Edgar are [-]% similar, and the aesthetics of Shangyu is directly equated with the nobles of the Golden Empire.

At least he didn't wear skirts anymore, though.Edgar comforted himself in this way.

As the mechs returned to the warship, the fleet began to leave, and the emperor and empress also finished the circumambulation ceremony and returned to the Ivan Summer Palace.It's just that the episode in this circumambulation ceremony has been talked about for a long time.After the crowd dispersed, the road was full of gems and petals of various colors.The wind blowing across the road carried away the petals while the tiny gemstones remained in place, a blessing for the wedding of the emperor and empress.In the long years since then, this road paved with precious stones has become the best witness of this luxurious wedding.

"Let's go."

Goodwill pulled Edgar away with the crowd, and walked to the aircraft parked not far away. There was a familiar family crest on the aircraft, which was the family crest of Noviyuga.As for why Goodwill is flying the aircraft painted with the Yuga family crest in a grand manner... Goodwill said that this is mutual help between friends, and he doesn't want to be sieved by laser guns.Novi said nothing about it.As for Edgar, as long as Shangyu doesn't wear a skirt, anything is fine!

That night, the Ivan Palace was brightly lit, and the entire palace was as bright as day, and several white beams of light rose from the ground, like beams of light that lifted the sky.This is the tradition of the empire, just like the bell of the empire, these beams of light will last all night until dawn.

After a short rest, Shang Ping changed into another dress. Compared with the dress worn for the ceremony, this dress was specially designed for the dinner party, and the ribbon on his body became silver.It's just that the gems on the coat haven't diminished.

Soran Aldrich wore a dress of the same style, with blue gemstones inlaid in golden ribbons.

As soon as he thought of the necessary procedures for a banquet, Shang Ping felt a headache again.Although under the devil education of Grand Duchess Mansha Edrich, his court social dance is no longer a problem, but he still has a shadow.

However, escaping is useless.

When Soran Edrich led Shang Ping and appeared at the entrance of the banquet hall, applause rang out.The cheers of long live the emperor and long live the queen are not much inferior to the cheers of the day.It's just that compared to the pure fanaticism of the subjects, the voices of these nobles and dignitaries are always slightly different from complete sincerity.

The sound of boot heels hitting the marble floor was lost in the applause, and the music in the banquet hall stopped when the emperor raised his hand.After a moment of silence, Soran Edrich led Shang Ping to the center of the banquet hall. The emperor's attendant whispered a few times in the ear of the band conductor. It was obvious that the band conductor looked a little strange, but almost no one noticed.

After the deep cello sound, the high-pitched and passionate music suddenly enveloped the entire banquet hall.

Shang Ping suddenly raised his head and looked at Solan Edrich, "Your Majesty?" This is obviously military music!Moreover, when Solan Edrich announced his engagement to Shang Ping, that song gave Shang Ping and the emperor a rare "experience" of military music!

Soran Edrich smiled, bent down, took Shang Ping's hand, and kissed the back of his hand, "My queen, would you like to dance with me?"

Shang Ping smiled, "I am willing, Your Majesty."

In the passionate music, there is no profligate court sanskrit, no tenderness of women, only masculinity of men.Powerful steps, flexible and strong waist, pat on the palm, Shang Ping felt for the first time that dancing can make people so happy.Of course, he didn't step on the emperor's foot again.

No one would point out the inappropriateness of the opening dance. Grand Duchess Mansha Edrich smiled and tapped Empress Dowager Yilan's stiff arm with a fan, and said, "Relax, Your Majesty Empress Dowager, this is the emperor's wedding."

Empress Dowager Yilan sighed helplessly, looked at Grand Duchess Manxia Edrich, and said, "Your Excellency, this is the emperor's wedding, of course I know it well."

Well, looking at Empress Dowager Yilan's high head, Grand Duchess Mansha Edrich shook her head, anyway, she reminded her.

As the last note of the music fell, Soran Edrich held Shang Ping's hand, breathing shallowly, while Shang Ping put his arms around Soran Edrich's waist, and kissed the corner of the emperor's lips, "Your Majesty, Thanks."

The applause sounded again, this night belonged to the most beautiful emperor and his queen in the empire.
