Chapter 280

In the meeting hall of the Crystal Dome Empire.

In addition to the Regent and the little emperor, there were only five people standing with their heads bowed. These were the Regent's confidants, who were in charge of the military, the Ministry of Works, the Ministry of Personnel and other matters, and were all core members of the Regent.

"It takes half an hour to get from the station to the palace, but it's been more than three hours, and Duke Chen hasn't arrived yet!"

"He just went to the rebels' lair and brought back some energy, but he started to be arrogant. What will happen in the future?"

"That's right! He was just named Duke, but he was so arrogant that he dared to make His Majesty and the Prince wait for him for three hours!"

"Your Majesty and the Prince love talents and promoted him out of the ordinary, but he doesn't know how to love himself! Your Majesty, Prince, this person must not be kept!"

The five ministers talked about it.

"Now, the rebels in Kurt are the biggest threat to the empire. Everything is based on eliminating the rebels. Moreover, capable people are more or less arrogant because of their talents. This is understandable!"

The Regent suppressed his anger and said lightly.

"Your Majesty is respectful to the wise and humble, and the empire will surely regain its glory..." Everyone began to flatter him.

Faced with these compliments, the regent's mood did not improve at all. He had been in power for so long, and no one dared to disrespect him, but Chen Ping made him wait for three hours.

If it weren't for the overall situation, Chen Ping would have been in a state of suffering!

In the early days of the regent's reign, the imperial court was stable. The regent used the threat of the rebels to quickly achieve control over the empire, but there were still many old emperors who were dissatisfied with him. Only those who should be killed were killed, and a small number of those with high prestige were all dismissed.

But the rebels became bigger and completely beyond the control of the regent.

If the combat effectiveness of the imperial army had not plummeted in recent years and the most important energy had not been cut off, the regent would not have gone to find an outsider like Chen Ping.

At the moment, he had to endure it for the time being. When Chen Ping took out the energy he had robbed from the rebels, the empire had enough capital to fight against the rebels, and then the worthless Chen Ping would be completely solved!

"Your Majesty, Prince, Duke Chen is here!" Jing Mo took the lead and walked into the meeting room, reporting respectfully.

The Regent wiped away the haze on his face and quickly put on a smile: "Quick, quick, quick! Please invite Duke Chen in!"

"Please invite Duke Chen into the meeting room!" Jing Mo shouted loudly. As the voice fell, Chen Ping walked into the meeting room quickly. At the same time, Jing Mo bowed and left, and closed the door of the meeting room.

"Duke Chen..."

The Regent's face was frozen with joy, and his pupils dilated instantly. Before he could react, he lost consciousness.

The five ministers in the meeting room were slightly stunned. Just when they wanted to shout, they lost consciousness like the Regent.

"This... Duke Chen... Spare... Spare my life... All this... He asked me to do it!" The little emperor was just a puppet of the Regent. He was frightened by Chen Ping's momentum, and his pants were soaked.

"Where is the real emperor?" Chen Ping asked.

"Your Majesty is...in the Regent's Palace, and has been...made into a human stick!"

The little emperor in front of Chen Ping only looks like a prince. The real prince is imprisoned in the Regent's Palace, with his limbs cut off and relying on machines to maintain his painful life.

"Captain Jing!"

Chen Ping took a deep breath and shouted.

Jing Mo, who was guarding outside the door, immediately led people into the meeting room.

"The Regent is sick, escort the Regent back to the palace!" Jing Mo led people to send the Regent's body back to the Regent's Palace.

"Your Majesty! This operation not only recaptured the energy looted by the rebels, but also rescued the late emperor and the princess..."

Chen Ping said it as a routine.

During this period, under the escort of the Dragon People, Raphni found many of the late emperor's old subordinates and successfully obtained their support.

One day later, the regent was seriously ill at home and died. The imperial capital welcomed back the princess, Ravni. The young emperor abdicated according to the will of the previous emperor, and Ravni ascended the throne to become the true empress of the Crystal Dome Empire.

The personnel of various important positions in the empire were replaced again. Although it caused a lot of shock, it was a smooth handover with the support of the imperial guards and the research institute.

On the first day of the empress's accession, she appointed Chen Ping as the imperial teacher and Chu Chi as the marshal of the three armies of the empire, leading the elite of the empire to the land of chaos.

Jing Mo's position remained unchanged, but the Third Army was expanded, and even the imperial guards were incorporated into the Third Army. A special combat team was also established separately, all composed of dragon people.

Afterwards, the battle route was planned for the Third Army, so that it could conquer the lost land and completely wipe out the remnants of the rebels.

These personnel arrangements and transfers were all told to Ravni by Chen Ping in advance, and she just read them out.

Chen Ping, who was behind the scenes, immediately went to the research institute after seeing that the empire was stabilizing.

Everything in the institute has not changed since the first time he saw it, but no matter how many times he has seen it, Chen Ping will still sigh at the grandeur of this building complex.

"What have you gained during this period?"

Entering the institute, Chen Ping immediately found Xue Na.

"I have gained a lot!" Xue Na smiled slightly, revealing a hint of tenderness in her heroic appearance.

"Master Emperor, Sister Xue Na is already one of the Six War Gods' Elytra!" Mel walked out of the laboratory lazily.

"One of the Six War Gods' Elytra?" Chen Ping was a little surprised.

"Well, after Jill left, there has been a vacancy in the Six War Gods' Elytra. After our unanimous discussion, we decided to let Miss Xue Na take over!"

After Meilin came back, she was dragged to the highest meeting of the Six War Gods' Elytra, which was about Xuena's joining.

With Chen Ping's relationship, Meilin naturally hoped that Xuena could join, but the Six War Gods' Elytra represented the highest research team in the empire, which needed to go through strict tests and layers of checks. They always adhered to the attitude of "better to have nothing than to have something sloppy", and it was even more impossible to make an exception and join because of personal relationships.

Before Meilin could object, Xuena's series of performances made her completely change her mind.

Xuena's talent was not as good as Mel and Meilin, but higher than Sig, and she was definitely a rare mechanical genius.

"I have long seen that you have talent in this area, congratulations!"

Chen Ping took advantage of the situation, but the congratulations were indeed from the heart.

"Thank you!" Xuena hugged Chen Ping directly.

Xuena met Chen Ping since the operation at the Dawn Camp. Along the way, Chen Ping gave her unimaginable sophisticated equipment and saved her life many times.

Xue Na wanted to do something for Chen Ping. It was not a reward, but at least it could relieve Chen Ping's pressure. However, most of the time, it was counterproductive.

Only this time, she really felt her significance and found her own way. Finally, she might not be a burden to Chen Ping.

"I plan to leave the heaven!"

After a brief embrace, Chen Ping whispered to Xue Na.
