Seeing this man, Duke Celia's face turned gray instantly, she lowered her head, and slowly retreated to the man's side, following him over.
When Zhou Qifeng saw this man, he saluted and took the initiative to greet him, "Eldest Prince, it's been a while."
"Master Zhou, it's also been a while." Yue Guangli's eyes stopped on Zhou Qifeng's face, and he nodded with his lips curled up.
Qin Zhongying pulled Qin Zhaoci's hand, reminding her to follow and salute.
After everyone saluted, Yue Lisi nodded to Yue Guangli and called out softly: "Imperial brother."
Prince Yue Guangli glanced at her, looked back indifferently, and hummed expressionlessly.
This indifferent and disdainful attitude can be felt by everyone present at the moment.
Qin Zhaoci deliberately observed Princess Yue Lisi's expression and found that her expression was very calm and did not have any reaction .
Obviously, this was not the first time she had seen such an attitude from Yue Guangli.
"I've heard that Division Commander Zhou is already preparing for the next army commander election, and that you clearly have a high reputation within the army. I wish you an advance success in the election."
Yue Guangli always focused on Zhou Qifeng as if the people around him didn't exist.
His purpose was so obvious that anyone with eyes could see what he wanted to do, and those who were wise enough to do so had already left the scene in silence.
Aside from Zhou Qifeng himself, only Yue Lisi, Wan Baiyun, Qin Zhongying and Qin Zhaoci were left present.
"Really," Zhou Qifeng's heart was as clear as a mirror, knowing that this Eldest Prince was just trying to pull himself in, "There are many other outstanding people in the army, I'm just one of the contenders, I may not necessarily be chosen."
"Master Zhou is so modest." Yue Guangli smiled down and turned the conversation around, "I wonder what you and Duke Celia are talking about just now? It felt as if you were a bit angry."
Zhou Qifeng glanced at Duke Celia, shook his head with a smile: "It's nothing, It's just some trivial matters, you don't have to worry about it, Eldest Prince, we've already taken care of it."
"Yes, it's already been resolved." The sweat at the corner of Duke Celia's forehead came out, "You don't have to worry, Eldest Prince."
"Really?" Yue Guangli lowered her eyes, hiding the furtive color in his eyes, he reached out his right hand and touched the beads on his left wrist, "Master Zhou, if there is anything that Duke Celia has done wrong, you must bring it up, the officials of the Empire are absolutely not allowed to abuse their power, and once it is found out, it will never be tolerated, so feel free to say it, I will report it to Father."
Hearing this, Zhou Qifeng glanced at Duke Celia behind him and instantly understood that this man was planning to give up Duke Celia to express his sincerity to himself.
Once he accepted, it meant that he was willing to support and aid him.
After understanding Yue Guangli's intentions, Zhou Qifeng shook his head, "Eldest Prince, our army has always stayed out of the affairs of political officials, even if we want to report on an official, you shouldn't lend me a hand, it's not in line with the rules."
Yue Guangli's hand touching the beads paused slightly, the corners of his lips retracted slightly, and he nodded in apology: "Yeah, I'm sorry, Master Zhou, it's because I didn't think it through well."
Seeing this, Zhou Qifeng lowered his head slightly, was just about to leave when a female voice with a smile rang out from not far away.
"Is it okay for me to report then?"
Qin Zhaoci raised her head and saw a woman wearing a white lady's suit with a golden crown shoulder badge pinned on both shoulders of the suit, black hair with a shawl, fair and clean skin, and clean and heroic features walking over.
"Second Princess." Zhou Qifeng paused in his footsteps, his brows gently locked, not expecting that just after dispatching one, another one came, instantly giving him some headache.
Yue Lituan was not as arrogant as Yue Guangli, who only greet Zhou Qifeng alone. After shaking hands with Zhou Qifeng, she shook hands with Qin Zhongying and Qin Zhaoci, and was able to accurately call out their names.
This caused Qin Zhaoci to be a bit surprised, and began to silently look at this newest woman.
Seeing Yue Lituan, the eldest prince slowly put away the false smile on his face, and asked with hostility in his eyes, "What do you want to report?"
Yue Lituan smiled sincerely: "Imperial brother, didn't you just say that as long as someone report it, you will report it to Father? Then I will report Duke Celia."
Duke Celia had thought that she would be able to dodge a bullet after Zhou Qifeng had rejected the Eldest Prince, but she didn't expect that the Second Princess would pop up again, saying that she would report herself, and instantly a layer of cold sweat broke out on her back.
After the Eldest prince's plan of sacrificing Duke Celia to please Zhou Qifeng failed, he didn't want Yue Lituan to come over and indirectly break his arm.
His face turned cold: "It's not like the Second Imperial sister can't see the father, whoever you want to report, just tell Father directly, you don't need to go through me to relay it."
Yue Lituan feigned innocence and frowned, "Huh, I thought that Eldest brother had sufficient evidence to report Duke Celia, that's what you said earlier, so if you really don't, then why did you say that to Master Zhou though?"
Yue Lituan naturally didn't collect Celia's information. Otherwise, according to her character, Celia would not be here at this time, but in prison.
Yue Guangli snorted coldly: "Oh, how could I possibly have, and Master Zhou didn't say that he would report Duke Celia, did he? Imperial Sister, you shouldn't listen to the wind, Duke Celia isn't something that can just be wrongly accused."
"Yeah, that was indeed my fault for not listening, I'm really sorry, Duke Celia."
After seeing that her purpose of singling out Duke Celia as Yue Guangli's person had been achieved, Yue Lituan immediately took it in stride.
The people of the Royal family were really all human savants, saying things with their own meanings, and after listening to a circle, Qin Zhaoci had already understood their intentions.
Yue Guangli failed to curry favor with Zhou Qifeng, and was unwilling to lose Celia as a his pawn, so he pretended that he hadn't specifically referred to Celia just now.
Yue Lituan wanted to tell Zhou Qifeng that Yue Guangli was unsettled, and wanted to use this to make Yue Guangli have to give up Celia, let him both lost his wife and his army, of course, the purpose was not achieved.
And the center of the whirlpool Zhou Qifeng did not want to get involved in the Royal family's struggle for power, and pretended to hold his head: "Oh, I drank a little too much just now, and suddenly I got dizzy, Baiyun, help me take a rest for a while."
"Okay, Division Commander." Wan Baiyun quickly supported Zhou Qifeng knowingly, nodded at the two, and led him away.
After Zhou Qifeng left, there was no need for Yue Guangli and Yue Lituan to stay here, the two of them glared at each other before turning their backs on each other and leaving without looking back.
Qin Zhongying and Qin Zhaoci, who had been ignored all this time, looked at each other helplessly.
Qin Zhaoci also saw from her first impression that Yue Guangli was an arrogant and unreasonable person with a ruthless heart, otherwise he wouldn't have casually discarded Duke Celia who had assisted him for so long.
And Yue Lituan is a full-fledged smiling tiger, and she is quite green tea, both of which are not simple.
As for Yue Lisi, Qin Zhaoci frowned and looked at her, who was not far away sipping wine and had already left silently after Yue Lituan had joined the war.
This Omega Princess didn't look aggressive on the surface, but she didn't seem to be a simple person either, and she couldn't guess what purpose she had for the time being.
"Mom who was that lady just now?" Qin Zhaoci couldn't help but ask after following Qin Zhongying to the corner.
Qin Zhongying explained, "That one is Princess Yue Lituan, the second in line, an Alpha, she and Princess Yue Lisi were born from the same mother."
"Then how old is Princess Yue Lisi?" Qin Zhaoci was a little curious.
Qin Zhongying thought for a moment and replied, "The First prince Yue Guangli is 30 years old, the Second princess Yue Lituan is 28 years old, and the Third princess Yue Lisi is 26 years old."
"The Eldest Prince and these two princesses, they are not from the same mother?" Qin Zhaoci thought of their hostile appearance towards each other just now.
Qin Zhongying shook her head, "No, the Eldest Prince's birth mother was the previous King Consort, who had already passed away, while Princess Yue Lituan's mother is the current King Consort."
Qin Zhaoci frowned, "Then wouldn't this Princess Yue Lituan have a good chance of serving as the next heir? Her mother is still around, she should be able to help her own children."
Qin Zhongying shook her head: "It shouldn't be of much help. At present, I can only say that the Eldest prince and Princess Yue Lituan have a better chance of being the next heir. The king actually has more than their three children, and there are also children born to other Crown princesses. As far as I know, The king has three Omega sons, four Alpha sons, two Alpha daughters, and one Omega daughter, a total of ten children."
"So many?" Qin Zhaoci frowned, and whispered, "Is this king a boar? Giving birth to so much."
"What did you say?" Qin Zhongying didn't catch it.
"Oh, it's nothing." Qin Zhaoci shook her head, "So the king has six Alpha children in total. It seems that the competition for the crown prince is indeed ferocious."
"Yes, but currently the only ones with the highest voices on the internet are the First Prince Yue Guangli and the Second Princess Yue Lituan, but up until now there has been no winner decided, so the next heir has been delayed."
"Did the king say when it will be decided?" Qin Zhaoci was a little curious.
Qin Zhongying shook her head: "Their votes were a bit too hard for the king to make a decision. Only when someone's vote has been the first and has not changed for a year, will the real candidate for the next heir be decided."
Qin Zhaoci frowned: "Huh, Isn't that so troublesome? Speaking of the election, they wouldn't have that real-time voting list on the internet, right?"
Qin Zhongying nodded, "Yes, this voting list is on the Imperial family's official website, every citizen of the Empire has only one vote, and can also be changed after voting."
"Aren't they afraid of being scrubbed?" Qin Zhaoci thought of it a bit strange.
Qin Zhongying shook her head, "No, each citizen of the Empire has their own individual identity number, the identity number will be bound to the optical brain, the system will memorize it after the vote, and won't give them the chance to steal their votes."
"Especially for this kind of occasion, stealing the votes is even more impossible, after voting, the citizens' numbers must be compared with the Empire's database, it's simply impossible to have this kind of opportunity."
"So that's how it is." Qin Zhaoci nodded in understanding, "I understand now, that's why that Eldest prince wants to win over Teacher Zhou in order to get more people to support him."
Seeing this man, Duke Celia's face turned gray instantly, she lowered her head, and slowly retreated to the man's side, following him over.
When Zhou Qifeng saw this man, he saluted and took the initiative to greet him, "Eldest Prince, it's been a while."
