Boundary Shattered [Interstellar]

Tang Chu hesitated and said, "They are..."

Lian Ting hugged him suddenly, hugging Tang Chu's body and arms tightly. Tang Chu was stunned, quickly reacted, and turned his head to kiss Lian Ting.Unexpectedly, Lian Ting had already let go of him at this time, allowing him to kiss him for a while.

He flattened his mouth, "I haven't kissed yet."

Lian Ting pushed his face away and said helplessly, "It's not for kissing."

Only then did Tang Chu realize that the terminal on his wrist had been removed by Lian Ting to block the sight of pedestrians just now, and Lian Ting's own wrist was empty.

This time Tangchu really became interested in this strange B-11 planet.

The imperial capital star is always calm. Tang Tao already knew through the news from the military department that the insects and beasts attacked again at the edge of the star field. , but wiped out most of the people sent by Stark Legion.

However, there were still no waves on the imperial capital.

Relying on the two affiliated planets of the Imperial Capital, the Xingke Legion has a strong force.Originally, after observing and analyzing the situation of the worm swarm, the head of the Stark Legion made the decision to directly send half of his troops to fight against the worm beasts. However, I don't know if it was because the Glory Legion was not there, and the nobles were frightened by the previous slave alliance. Gave the courage to not allow the Xingke Legion, which guards the outer reaches of the Imperial Capital, to dispatch so many troops at once, and introduced a certain inconspicuous law that has always been ineffective. one fifth.

The head of the Stark Legion is unwilling to let his soldiers die in vain, but he can only be subject to the laws moved by the nobles.He could only dispatch one-fifth of the advance troops, wait until the news from the front line arrived, and ignore the dissatisfaction of the noble ministers, and quickly send half of the troops there.However, it was still a step too late, and one-fifth of the advance troops were wiped out.

And half of the additional troops were no longer facing the worms in the front-line report, but an extremely powerful high-level worm left behind after a fight, the four high-level worms annexed each other, and the worm that was killed by this high-level worm. A huge herd of worms controlled by worms with spiritual power.So it was difficult for this half of the troops to win, and in the end only a small part survived.

He, Tang Yu, Tang Jing, and Mei Yun checked the military newsletter together during breakfast. Tang Jing didn't express any feelings about it, as if an army was ruined and would not do his business at all, and the dead soldiers were nothing worthwhile. pity.Tang Tao then asked:

"Where did the law come from? The military?"

Tang Jing said lightly: "You should ask your father about this."

It was rare for Tang Yu to come out to eat with others this time, and what was even rarer was that he took the initiative to explain:

"Why is the military department free from the constraints of government departments from the beginning? Because although the relevant implementation laws of the military department are formulated internally by the military department, the general outline of military affairs is formulated by the leaders of the empire. There is a rule in the general outline that the minister of the military department needs nobles Responsibility, laws related to the military must be partly enacted by the cabinet.”

Tang Tao didn't ask any more questions, and just silently picked up the dishes.

The military seems to be completely free, but is it actually half in a cage?

... Strange, he had always opposed the independent style of the military department before, why now he feels a little regretful that the military department is not absolutely independent.

And in the empire, what is absolute freedom?

He was in a daze when Mei Yun beside him suddenly touched him lightly.When he regained his senses, he heard Tang Jing say:

"Tao'er, you've been in a bad state these days."

Tang Tao hurriedly said: "Thank you, Patriarch, for your concern. There is no problem. I will handle the affairs you entrusted to me carefully."

"If you have any troubles, you might as well say it, the people at the same table are all elders."

Tang Tao nodded, flashing through his mind what he saw in the research institute a few days ago.

"...just thinking, when can I... and Lieutenant Colonel Shu's children be brought back from the research institute."

Tang Jing said: "It's less than ten months old, and I'll let you know when the time comes. The staff of the institute should have told you about the situation of the fetus, right?"

"Yes, Patriarch. Jamlin, the vice president of the research institute, keeps in touch with me."

"You can interact more with the talents of the research institute."

Tang Yu casually took a bite of the dish.

Tang Tao responded: "Yes, Patriarch. I will."

Tang Tao didn't expect Tang Yu to come to his room when he was resting at night.

He was a little embarrassed for a moment, and quickly got up from the bed to entertain him, turned on the standby robot again, and ordered it to pour tea.Tang Yu who entered the door glanced at Tang Tao and said:

"Go to your room."

In the bedroom, Tang Yu raised her eyelids again, "Go and lie down on the bed, there is something I want to tell you."

In all Tang Tao's memories, he seemed to be searching all over, but he couldn't find the second sentence besides what he said just now. What Tang Tao said to him could be regarded as caring words. Quilt.Tang Yu was sitting on the chair in front of his bed, looking out the window in a daze.

It was already night outside, that was Tang Jing's residence, the lights were brightly lit, emitting a gorgeous halo.

Tang Tao felt that this environment was almost... warm.He couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth a little.

Tang Yu suddenly said, "I don't agree with you becoming the next Patriarch of the Tang family. The one I like more is your elder brother."

Tang Tao restrained the smile that was not considered a smile at the corner of his mouth, and pursed his lips.

"I know that the decision-making power still lies with the Patriarch, but I know that you still have the ambition of the Patriarch. He has carefully cultivated you, not only intending to let you take over the military department, but also planning for you to run for the cabinet minister this year."

Tang Tao subconsciously ignored Tang Tian's first sentence, "...the law does not stipulate that citizens cannot have the status of military department and minister at the same time."

"That's right." Tang Tao kept looking out of the window, and from Tang Tao's angle, he could only see half of his father's hidden side face.

"What grade are you in now?"

"...Seventh grade, father."

"Um... a lieutenant?"

"...Yes. But I haven't gone to the military department to get the appointment documents yet."

Tang Yu said: "Then he is not considered a member of the military department."

Tang Tao's pupils shrank slightly.

"Father means...?"

"You go to the Legion of Glory. If you can win the Tang Dynasty, the Minister of the Military Department is yours. Or if you are willing to stay and wait for the election in a few months, I will not interfere with you too much. It's just that you won't have a chance After serving in the military department, maybe when I step down and the next minister retires, Tang Jing will have a chance to realize his ambition of bringing the military department under the government."

Tang Tao was silent for a while, looking at Tang Yu's side face with unspeakable eyes.

"...What is the Tang family to my father...?"

"What is it..." Tang Yu murmured without answering.

"So..." Tang Tao didn't think hard about what he should do after hearing the choice Tang Yu gave him, as Tang Tao had expected, but said:

"...Father, do you know something? That's why you don't want me to stay in the Imperial Capital, and why you have entrusted me to the Patriarch for more than 20 years, but at this time, you intend to block me from contacting the political circle?"

Tang Yu's body trembled, and she finally turned around.

Tang Tao was staring at him with burning eyes.

"I was born on a remote planet, and the Shen family where my mother lives is just a little noble who lives in a star field far away from the imperial capital." Tang Tao said.

"My child is in the research institute, and I was also born in the research institute. But maybe the research institute on Imperial Capital is still somewhat different from the research institute on remote planets?"

"Participants in the election will have a full-body examination hosted by the Institute. If the Institute tries to implant something in my body that I should have but don't have now, there is a good chance."

Tang Tao raised his hand to his temple, "...So, now, am I free?"

"...Yes. The storm is coming."

After three days of observation, Tang Chu and Lian Ting were finally able to find a shelter in the capital city of Harliang.

Because the weirdness of this city is still reflected in the residences. The city is clearly full of people. Even at night, people are resting on the roads, but most of the houses are actually empty.So the two found an unoccupied house to rest temporarily. During the day, they changed into old clothes and wandered the streets with most people, trying to find something.

On the fourth day, the two ended their aimless wandering like walking dead.

It was broad daylight when they turned out the window, and the short daylight had begun.Because the street was very quiet at night, the two ran to the nearby garbage city to try to find some clues, but they ended up with nothing.

Tang Chu went back to his residence and packed up the bed and put it in the space button. He said to Lian Ting, "I'm really curious who their city mayor is." Then he heard that the crowd over there was no longer scattered, but neat and orderly. lined up on both sides of the road, looking respectful, looking up at the end of the road, someone said, "The mayor is here!"

Tang Chu was shocked.That's him.

The two pretended to be ordinary city residents, and stood on the side of the road, looking at the people coming.It was a modified aircraft with gorgeous decorations. The original outer shell was removed and replaced with a throne like a dragon chair. Inside was a thin man with evil eyes sitting upright, scanning the road on both sides with contempt. people.Tang Chu used his mental strength to investigate the situation there, while himself and Lian Ting lowered their heads respectfully.

Of course, the mayor, who looked like the emperor on a trip, also had his guard of honor, and turned out to be a team of mutants.The direction of variation seems to be a tortoise or something, with thick shells on the joints of the limbs, and he is also a burly figure, who seems to have strength capabilities.

As the guard of honor marched forward, the passing residents rushed to the ground in unison, kowtowed on the road, and shouted "Welcome to the respected Lord Mayor to inspect", which looked like some kind of cult; The mayor, rather like a cult leader.

Tang Chu was having a hard time, and when the mayor passed by them, he wondered whether he should kneel down or not, but the aircraft stopped in front of them.
