Chapter 1943 Historical Trouble!
"Cheers to Colonel Ming's victory once again!"
Upon hearing the news that He Ming had returned from space once again, the emperor, who was carrying out reforms in the capital, did not hesitate to bring Gao Hai and Li Xingke to this steel city located deep in the desert to participate in this small welcoming banquet.
"cheers!"
After all, they were girls of similar age and had similar experiences. When Asuka created the title of "Crimson Troll", Tenko gradually formed a good friendship with Asuka.
Sure enough, when the Emperor proposed a toast to Hisana's renewed victory, Asuka was the first to respond.
After everyone raised their glasses and shouted "Cheers!", they began to toast each other, enjoying the food that Lian had carefully prepared while chatting casually about recent events.
Although everyone was talking about the recent battle situation on the northern front, most of their attention was actually focused on He Ming's side.
After all, people seem more interested in humans from the future than in the enemies at hand.
Emperor Jiang Lihua held the cup and secretly winked at Asuka for help, but Asuka blinked to indicate her refusal, and a blush gradually appeared on her face.
"Um... Colonel Ming, did you really encounter humans from the future?"
"Hmm? Why do you say that? Your Majesty, since this world became so chaotic and complicated, we have already encountered many people from other worlds. Under such circumstances, it is not surprising to encounter people from the future."
He Ming put down his cup, looked around, and noticed that everyone was staring at him curiously. He knew that he couldn't avoid this topic.
"But what if we encounter people from the future? Wouldn't that mean we could learn about the future from them, and..."
Emperor Jiang Lihua silently lowered her head, took a sip from her cup, and spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz.
"And knowing what you'll look like in the future..."
Upon hearing this, He Ming understood.
He turned around and looked at Li Xingke standing behind him.
After noticing He Ming's actions, Li Xingke nodded silently.
It seems that this young emperor, who was determined to change the status quo and lead the country to a better future, has been under a lot of pressure during this period.
"Colonel Ming, it's so good to have you back! Even with Lieutenants Murasame and Rosamia in charge, some people are still harboring ulterior motives and acting against our wishes!"
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Gao Hai immediately went to He Ming's side and whispered something.
He Ming nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
Murasame and Rosamia were originally supposed to come, but due to some unforeseen circumstances, they were unable to attend.
Considering the reactions of Emperor Jiang Lihua, Gao Hai, and Li Xingke, He Ming already had a clear understanding of the situation.
There is no other reason.
The specifics are something that has been discussed many times before.
Whenever a feudal dynasty attempted to implement reforms, there were always interest groups that would step forward to obstruct them.
It was originally a group of eunuchs, but they were eliminated by the young emperor who came to his senses.
With the collapse of the eunuch faction, it was naturally the turn of those aristocratic families who had been suppressed by the eunuch faction but were now seeing their day in the sun.
He Ming had anticipated this situation.
After all, in the original world of Heming, the history there has already proven everything.
"Don't worry! They're just some obstacles in the way! Just move them or destroy them."
Before Emperor Jiang Lihua could react, Gao Hai, who was beside her, said happily.
"Your Majesty, Colonel Ming has agreed to help you solve your problem!"
Emperor Jiang Lihua was taken aback, seemingly not expecting He Ming to agree to her request so readily.
She hadn't even asked for help yet.
“Colonel Ming, yes, but… I haven’t even repaid the favor I owed you before…” He Ming raised his hand, signaling Emperor Jiang Lihua that she didn’t need to continue.
"In today's complex and chaotic world, every country with internal and external stability can provide us with additional support. Helping you is also helping ourselves. If Your Majesty feels indebted, then please continue to assist our efforts in the future so that the world can return to normal as soon as possible."
Upon hearing this, Gao Hai and Li Xingke, who were standing behind the emperor, were filled with surprise and admiration, and immediately bowed.
"Colonel Ming is truly righteous! If you need anything in the future, please don't hesitate to give the order! As long as you don't betray the Emperor and the country, I will go through fire and water, even if it means my death!"
Seeing this, He Ming shook his head and said seriously.
"If word gets out that you two are making such a statement, where will that leave the Emperor's face?"
"No! Colonel Ming. Please, please don't blame them!"
Emperor Jiang Lihua suddenly stood up, her face flushed, her hands unconsciously twisting the hem of her clothes, and she gradually lowered her head.
"This isn't just their opinion, it's also...my opinion...As long as Colonel Ming needs it, even if it's..."
"No, that's enough! Let's stop here! We'll arrange the details after the Banshee Gundam's inspection is finished. Tonight, let's drink to our hearts' content!!"
He Ming waved his hand, stopping the emperor's side from making any further statements.
If they continue to make these statements, they might just create some dramatic scenarios that will make Asuka and Shinji, who are watching with wide eyes and waiting to see what happens, laugh at them.
As for Lian, this seemingly gentle but actually somewhat cunning witch maid's silence was already the greatest favor she could do for He Ming.
The night is getting darker.
Having a great time, Asuka pulled Emperor Jiang Lihua back to her room to whisper secrets. Shinji Ikari, remembering he had early class the next day, quickly ran back to his room to sleep.
As for Gao Hai and Li Xingke, they waited outside the room for the girls to finish their whispered conversation.
After handing the tidying up work over to the intelligent robot, Lian brought a drink to help with digestion to He Ming's side.
"My lord, today was truly dangerous!"
He Ming reached out and took the drink, giving Lian a helpless glare.
"That's why you notified the Emperor and the others to come, right?"
Lian put down her plate and chuckled softly.
"Isn't this a good thing? It can both help resolve the young emperor's inner conflict and demonstrate your magnanimity, refraining from taking advantage of someone's misfortune and kicking them when they're down."
"You!"
He Ming sighed and said irritably.
"Didn't we show you the scene of a princess getting married before? Now, you're interested in the scene of an emperor getting married?"
"Look how you've made me sound like a scheming villain."
Lian angrily revealed some information.
"In fact, this young emperor was not only facing pressure from the aristocratic families, but also from some aristocratic families who were openly loyal to the emperor and were trying to use their influence to force the young emperor to marry, using marriage as a shackle to control the young emperor."
"In addition, some powerful families attempted to make contact with America's side, and during these contacts, they betrayed a lot of intelligence about the northern front, which at one point put the northern front in danger."
"But fortunately, due to the existence of Punishment and Asuka and Unit-02, their plot did not succeed."
Listening to the maid's story in the night breeze, He Ming sighed softly.
"Troublesome! Let's just wipe them all out! In space, Neo Zeon and Death Vanguard are always throwing rocks at Earth! Ren, what do you think about smashing it to pieces and letting the Emperor rebuild it himself?"
Lian pursed her lips slightly and said respectfully.
"In terms of timeliness and cost, this is undoubtedly the most effective method."
