Chapter 288
9 was a little confused, [Gan! Then this emperor is such a scumbag! Don’t you want your own son? Just watch him being framed, guilty and exiled? ! 】
Although he has followed the host and met several fathers who are not human beings, this emperor still seems to be at the top of the list of attributes of a scumbag father.
Yuan Buwei was much calmer than him: "Calm down, I have seen similar things a lot, you should get used to it. If this is your biological father, at least he gave up one biological son for another biological son." He himself When his blood father chose to make him a scapegoat, he did it for someone who had nothing to do with him.
Yuan Buwei, who had very low requirements for the identity of "father", had no sense of what the emperor did. Perhaps for him, as long as he doesn't take the initiative to harm his son's father, even just watching with a cold eye is enough.
"...Moreover, who said Wu Heng is the eldest prince?"
System 999 was stunned for a moment: [Isn’t Wu Heng the eldest prince? Then won’t your plan to host you fail? 】
"Why do you think you will fail?"
[I thought you, the host, were planning to reveal the origin of this body, and then return to the empire in glory as the eldest prince, to kill the emperor and ascend to the throne! No matter what happens, he can still get rid of his original enemy, the Third Prince. But if Wu Heng were not the eldest prince, wouldn't everything we do have no effect? 】
"So, 999, you don't understand people's hearts." Yuan Buwei flicked the light ball, "What's important is not whether Wu Heng is the eldest prince, but what the emperor said, and whether other people want him Become the eldest prince."
He casually connected to the Imperial Star Network, with a hint of expectation in his tone: "Since the genetic comparison is consistent with the First Prince's, everything depends on what the Emperor says."
In fact, the emperor has three choices -
The simplest thing is to resolutely refuse to admit that the genetic comparison is the same, and directly label Yuan Buwei as a fraud, then the third prince can escape from public opinion. This is the best result for the third prince. In the past, I could only use another way of thinking to deal with the empire, which would definitely be more difficult than it is now.
The second is to admit that the genetic comparison is the same, but deny the identity of the eldest prince - then the emperor must explain the reason carefully. Maybe it will involve secrets that the other party never wants the public to know. For example, some experiments that violate human ethics. In this way, the emperor himself will be dragged into the water.
The last option is to follow Ou Shang's words and admit Yuan Buwei's identity, then the third prince will most likely be pushed out and become a victim of Yuan Buwei's anger. However, the emperor is likely to gain an excellent tool man with outstanding talents and the ability to cure genetic collapse.
"In fact, I hope he rejects my identity outright. That way at least he will be a good father to the third prince, and the difficulty of the game will also increase." Yuan Buwei felt a little regretful, "However, judging from the previous announcement, Look, his choice seems obvious."
While Yuan Wuwei was speaking, the headlines on Empire Star Online were refreshed, and a shocking news appeared on the homepage.
——The emperor announced the results of the genetic comparison, confirming that Wu Heng had the same genetic sequence as the eldest prince who died young.
Later, the always wise and wise emperor appeared on the scene with a haggard look. In the live broadcast on Star Network, he frankly revealed a secret: "In fact, the eldest prince did not die young at that time. When his genes collapsed and he was about to die, he was sent to a cryonics chamber."
In the picture, the emperor's expression is full of love and nostalgia, just like an ordinary old father: "...As you can see, I am actually just a father who loves his son. When the eldest prince was on the verge of death, I couldn't bear it for a moment. , make people secret He froze him and set up a research institute in an attempt to find a cure for genetic collapse. Maybe one day my son will be able to live again..." He couldn't hide his sadness when he said the emotional part. , so that no one else is aware of being infected.
After expressing his fatherly feelings, the emperor solemnly apologized to everyone. He claimed that he announced the eldest prince's premature death because he did not want others to know that he had secretly launched a forbidden genetic mixing experiment just to cure his son.
As for why the eldest prince suddenly became the commander-in-chief of the empire, Wu Heng? The emperor also gave a reasonable explanation. Because the research institute is very secretive, an experimental accident occurred later. In the chaos, the eldest prince's freezer was opened by someone unknown, and the person disappeared.
"...I thought this child had died a long time ago, but I never thought that he would actually come back to me in another way." The emperor's voice full of emotion slowly came out from the optical brain projection, " This child has suffered a lot, It has not been easy after so many years. Not only did I not recognize him, but I was also deceived so that he was stigmatized and forced into exile. As the emperor, I want to apologize to him for my oversight. As a father, I want to apologize even more. You should apologize to him."
I didn't turn off the optical brain, and the hair on my body stood up.
He could guess what the next words were. It was nothing more than a loving father calling his child to return and asking for his forgiveness in front of everyone. It's just that this is a bit too boring for Yuan Buwei.
"...As expected of the emperor of a country, he is capable of bending and stretching. He does not hesitate when it is time to put down his dignity... Tsk. In comparison, the third prince's rank is indeed not high enough."
I have only learned conspiracy and trickery, but I don’t understand that conspiracy can only be used as a surprise move. If the emperor cooperates with his own scheming, uses the general trend to suppress others, and follows the trend, he will be unfavorable.
Thinking of the third prince, his disgusted mood calmed down a little. He sighed in a pretentious manner, and felt sorry for the third prince: "... Unfortunately, he seems to have no chance to learn and improve."
Chapter 239 Rebel Party 23
The video of the emperor of the empire personally going down quickly spread on the Star Network, and the popularity is still rising.
To everyone's surprise, the emperor personally acknowledged that "Wu Heng" was a prince, and he was not an illegitimate child of unknown origin, but the legitimate eldest prince of the empire.
Although everyone was also surprised that the eldest prince who had obviously died suddenly "resurrected from the dead", they would rather call it a wonderful surprise.
This means that "Wu Heng" is the legitimate future heir of the empire and the first candidate for the next emperor - there is no doubt that all his crimes have been cleared now, and he has such talent and strength. Is there anyone who can compete with him?
In fact, the whole empire wanted to raise their hands and feet to support this legitimate eldest prince to become the crown prince.
This is why everyone was so surprised.
——Since he is the future heir of the empire, the entire empire belongs to him. Would anyone give up the entire empire and the throne of the emperor just because of some misunderstandings that have been clarified?
Everyone is already certain that the former light of the empire will return to the empire as the eldest prince.
And this time, they will definitely give him a grand welcome.
However, to everyone's surprise, although the emperor has announced the other party's identity and clarified his charges, he has rarely shown his fatherly side in private in front of the public. He is like an ordinary father who has lost his son for many years and finally found him again. The expectation, anxiety and joy revealed in his eyes and tone are enough to move anyone... but it didn't move the people who should be moved.
Whether it was for the huge benefits of recognizing relatives or for emotional reasons, "Wu Heng" should not refuse!
But he never responded, as if he had never known what was happening on the empire's side. After all, there was no Internet access inside and outside the empire.
—— Considering that he was so powerful that he could directly climb over the wall and broadcast live on the Empire Star Network, no one would believe that he really knew nothing about everything.
The blindly optimistic remarks on the Star Network gradually decreased, replaced by all kinds of anxiety, confusion, and doubts. Some people turned into dog-headed military advisors and gave the royal family all kinds of ideas that sounded strange or reasonable, just to make them stand up and invite people back quickly.
So, three days after the emperor publicly made such a touching declaration and Yuan Buwei still had no response, someone came to the door. $$Think$$Tu$$Online$$Read$$
To be precise, it was a bounty hunter organization that usually did not show its true colors. Their leader came through the public station of "Star Sea" and asked to see the leader of "Star Sea" by name, and claimed that he represented the will of the emperor of the empire.
Not long after, he met the person smoothly.
On a public asteroid, in a seemingly inconspicuous flying ship, the leader of the bounty hunter organization did not encounter any difficulties. The first time he walked in, he saw his target.
There was no third person in the empty cabin. A young man with black hair, gray eyes and a cold temperament sat there carelessly, fiddling with a box of colorful star stones with interest.
His long legs were crossed and stretched out in front of him. He looked completely flexible. He did not cover his face, revealing a face that was familiar to almost everyone in the star field.
"It is you, Commander Wu Heng." The man took a deep breath and saluted him. It was not a common greeting in the Desolate Star Field, but a courtesy between subordinates in the empire and their superiors or between ordinary people and members of the royal family. "No, it should be said that it is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
While saluting, the man raised his head and told his purpose truthfully: "Your Highness, I am here on behalf of the empire, and I am an envoy sent by the emperor of the empire. Since His Majesty cannot contact you in other ways, and I happen to be in the Desolate Star Field, I was given this important mission as a communication channel between you and His Majesty. ”
As he said this, he raised his hand, revealing a special-shaped optical computer in his palm, and said respectfully: "If you don't mind, His Majesty wants to talk to you."
Yuan Buwei played with the smooth and cold star stone in his hand, looked up at him lazily, did not answer, and did not take the optical computer. Instead, he said something irrelevant as if chatting: "I heard that you are the leader of a bounty hunter organization. It seems that this is the power behind the scenes of the empire? No wonder you can find out my identity so quickly. "
Of course, this is also related to his openness.
Originally, the distance between the Desolate Star Region and the Empire was far, and it was regarded as a garbage area by the Empire. Generally speaking, the emperor was too lazy to pay attention to any intelligence here. The forces behind the scenes of the Empire were mainly to gain benefits, or to kill some people who were inconvenient to kill directly.
However, the amount of information Yuan Buwei showed in the live broadcast was too much. The emperor could give up a useless "Wu Heng", but he could never ignore him who could possibly cure genetic collapse.
So, after the live broadcast ended that day, the emperor almost immediately mobilized all the forces he could, sent people to search for Yuan Buwei's whereabouts, and also paid attention to all the information about curing genetic collapse, even in remote star regions like the Desolate Star Region. Then, they found some news that had been ignored before.
For example, it seems that some people in the Desolate Star Region have reappeared alive and kicking after their genetic collapse. This kind of uncertain gossip has been ignored as a rumor before. It is a big joke that genetic collapse can be cured!
But now, when these "rumors" that were once ignored are finally taken seriously, thanks to the empire's powerful intelligence network and the think tank team with high IQ, they quickly found "Xinghai", a new organization that has risen very rapidly and whose timeline is almost the same as after "Wu Heng" was exiled.
Since Yuan Buwei did not cover up the clues much, it was not difficult to guess his true identity.
So, today's meeting took place.
"To be honest, it's really hard to send someone to find me so quickly.
