Chapter 69 Prophecy
Chapter 69 Prophecy
"Have you heard of that prophecy?" Sherry. Lofty stood under the huge French window, holding a glass of red wine in his hand.The white evening dress on her body looks very exquisitely designed. It seems to be the latest model of DIAR this year. It won the first prize and won numerous best awards at the Fall Fashion Week in Wolfsaw Galaxy.At that time, many aristocrats wanted to buy this noble and elegant white dress, but the designer didn't care much about their olive branches.
Kager, the designer of DIAR, stood on the podium of the fashion week and said coldly that he would only make this set of clothes in his life, and he would only give them to people who are destined, and not sell them at high prices.
He thought well, but his predestined relationship may not be able to keep this precious evening dress.The imperial nobles are so powerful that it is easy to bully one or two civilians, not to mention that the lady he gave the dress to is really short of money.
So, now this evening dress called SWAN is worn by Mrs. Shirley, the number one beauty in the empire.
"About the Pearl of the Empire?" The young man sitting at the long dining table and earnestly cutting the steak was obviously very disdainful, "I have seen that woman, although she is indeed a beauty, but she has no skills, and she can't activate any symbiotic weapons. At all— Nothing to worry about."
The veal steak in front of him was freshly made by the best chef in the Wolfsaw galaxy. It was medium-rare and just right. On the white dinner plate, there is a gold border inlaid on the edge of the dinner plate, and the top is made of real gold.There are no more than five sets of such tableware in the entire empire.
"However, so far, every one of his predictions has been fulfilled, even the recent civil strife in the Vobend galaxy: how and when it happened, it is not bad at all." A middle-aged person sitting at a guest seat far away from the dining table The man frowned.
"Hmph, it's just a coincidence. Could it be that uncle is really afraid of those reckless men who only know how to use knives?"
"Owen!" Mrs. Shirley scolded her son in dissatisfaction, "It's not big or small, why don't you hurry up and apologize to your uncle."
"I'm sorry, Uncle Robin."
The people sitting at the dining table are Mrs. Shirley's son Owen Knight and her compatriot brother Robin. The palace they are in is located in the capital of the Wofschau galaxy. One of the more famous royal palaces in the empire: Flomo Palace.
More than 30 years ago, before Edward IV died in battle, his younger brother, the Duke of Robben, married Wendy, the daughter of the lord of Kensington County, as the duchess in accordance with the royal decree.The Duke of Robben desperately wanted a male heir, as Edward IV had been disappointing the entire royal family in terms of marriage and heirs.
However, Duchess Wendy has been homeless since she married into the royal family, and the child she finally conceived was accidentally miscarried and died.Over time, Duke Robben began to linger in the flowers, and it was at that time that he met Shirley, who was called "the first beauty in the empire" and "Night Rose".Loft.
The Loft family is not a high-ranking aristocrat. The baronship of the current head of the family is all because he dedicated a beauty to a certain cabinet minister, and that beauty was able to renew after the death of the minister's wife. .
Speaking of which, on the Enli planet, the capital of the Wolfsaw galaxy, there is no one who does not know the Loft family.Their family is the leader in the night-time business, especially the sensual industry.It can even be said responsibly that there is no Fengyuechang in the Wofschau galaxy that does not have shares of the Loft family.
Shirley.Loft's reputation as a beauty is also because she is especially good at communicating, and she is especially good at communicating with the nobles of the upper three floors.To put it bluntly, she is a famous social butterfly.
When Duke Robben was frustrated, he happened to meet the scheming Shirley.Loft, the relationship between the two ignited instantly, and it took only three months from acquaintance to passionate love. Soon, Duke Robben bought real estate for Mrs. Shirley regardless of the opposition of the royal family, even in Mrs. Shirley's private house. Among them, the servants directly called Shirley, the mistress, "Your Grace"-a title available to the Duchess.
Fortunately, the Duchess finally took the lead in giving birth to the eldest son William for the Duke of Robben, and even gave birth to a daughter the following year.It is precisely because of this incident that even though Mrs. Shirley was able to live up to her expectations and gave birth to Owen for Duke Robben, she still could not live in the Duke's mansion. She could only live in another courtyard with the acquiescence of the royal family.
Now, Owen has become a knight and has a certain influence among the lower noble mercenaries, but it has also become an unstable factor in the Xingwang dynasty.
"By the way, uncle," Owen may have changed the subject in order to ease the uncomfortable atmosphere just now, "I heard that your new play will change actors? I remember, this seems to be the second time to change actors, right?"
The person sitting at the guest seat was the famous director and screenwriter Robin who was interviewed by reporters during the filming of Seablue Star. He has been developing the film and television industry in the Wobend Galaxy, and most of the outside world only knows his name Robin, but they don't know He turned out to belong to the Loft family, and he was also the elder brother of the famous Mrs. Shirley.
When the matter of changing actors was mentioned, Robin immediately became angry: "If it wasn't for Gu Junchou from the Knights Island, who insisted on forcing a woman with big breasts and no brains to come in, why would I need to change to a leading role. That little girl has She has a good temperament and sense of drama, and she is the best candidate for the heroine in my mind. Although she is not well-known, as long as my movie is made, it will definitely be popular. Now, this airborne woman is not only bad at acting, but also says that our crew Bullying her, crying to the media every three days!"
"No, otherwise, why would your uncle come to see us?" Mrs. Shirley smiled and returned to the chair, as if she was complaining to her brother, "Usually your uncle would not want to come for whatever reason you use to invite us. "
Robin rolled his eyes, and had nothing to do with his sister, so he could only take a sip of the red wine on the table: "My sister didn't just ask me to come because she wanted to have a meal with me, she didn't want to chat with me. Talk about that prophecy?"
Mrs. Shirley calmed down the atmosphere with a few words, and then she knocked on the table with her hands: "Linglong Xiangsizi's prophecy is ingenious. It seems that his life is in danger now. That's why he said such unclear things." It is prophesied that the "wandering" "pearl" will eventually return to its place, and the empire will inevitably move towards unification. Isn't this nonsense?"
"But, not long ago, my father did find my sister, didn't I?" Owen smiled, "Mom, you should send your sister away. Looking at it this way, she looks a bit like the pearl of the empire."
Shirley rolled her eyes, ignoring her son's teasing, but Robin shook her head: "When you sent Rachel away, I disagreed. After all, it's the wife's child, even if it's a daughter, how can you do that?" It won't do you any good if people find out. If William really has no descendants, Rachel will be the only heir. The old men in the royal family, especially Howard, are still not enough to contend with our strength."
"Uncle, you are always so cautious," Owen stood up, "In addition to our current five legions, there is also the general who is friendly with my mother who is willing to help, uncle, soon we will be equal to father. Duke That old woman, Madam, is no match for us, and her daughter is definitely useless."
"Rachel doesn't have any skills," Robin didn't mean to give his nephew any face, "but Rachel has a son, do you know?"
Xue Li didn't take it seriously: "A son born to a woman who can't activate the symbiotic weapon and another man, the bloodline of the Xingwang Dynasty is even thinner, so there is nothing to worry about."
Robin shook his head and said seriously: "You two should also check the latest international news, instead of just focusing on the internal affairs of the empire. Especially the Minhua Festival competition in the Shaolin Temple in the Wobend star system, the video of that game It has been spread all over the Internet, I think—the so-called thin blood, there are exceptions."
Shirley frowned and didn't speak. Instead, Robben immediately called up his own communicator and watched the video from the Internet. After watching it for a while, Owen jumped up regardless of table manners: "Why? possible?!"
"This is the scene, you can't fake it."
"This man is Rachel's son?!" Owen's face was full of disbelief, and even his expression began to twist, "This man cannot be kept! Mother, I will send someone to kill him!"
Mrs. Shirley didn't see the video, but seeing her son's reaction, she also frowned.After a long time, she leaned back on her seat and laughed: "Owen, you have grown up, just let go and do whatever you want to do. Your mother's future depends on you, so you don't have to ask everything. pass me."
Owen nodded and went out. The half-eaten steak on the table was still steaming, but the Owen Knight obviously didn't want to do this anymore.Robin looked at the plate of steak, and casually drank the red wine in front of him. Then he looked at Mrs. Shirley and said, "Tell me, if there is anything you can't say in front of the children, tell me to do it alone."
"You are more familiar with the affairs of the Wobend galaxy. That child Owen is reckless and lacks in intelligence. If you know the existence of that child, those old guys in the royal family will naturally know it too. I'm afraid we don't need to do it, just wait for the old guy If you, or Robben, bring the child back, it will not be too late for us to do it. The only thing is, brother, is there any recent movement of the person I want you to help me pay attention to?"
"I still haven't found the exact location, but I've tracked down two or three clues. Why, is this person important to you?"
Shirley: "Only he knows the molecular phasing technology. If we master this technology, we will be invincible. Do you know? I saw him on the wanted list of the Empire, but when I look at it now, he has disappeared. He can enter the Empire." A person of the system, I'm afraid he is the only one in this universe. Brother, you have to search for me, as long as he is willing to work for us, I am willing to meet all his requirements."
Robin nodded, and after finishing his meal, he called his assistant: "Tell Gu Junchou of Xia Ke Island, if you still want his girlfriend Yi Ting to continue to play the heroine in my new drama, please help me." Look for a boy named Kishi GUMI, but I can't find it, so I'm going to change the role."
