Chapter 197: Internal and External Troubles

Chapter 197 Internal and external troubles

Prince Morton was extremely anxious. He was living a good life, but he just wanted to get some barbecue to eat, but he lost all the rice, causing him to lose nineteen space buttons, not including the property and weapons that were taken away from the ten captured guards.

Of course, Prince Morton was the one who suffered the biggest loss. The guards came out to perform missions and did not carry much property with them. Even the weapons were very few left in the endless battle.

Now, the situation is very bad. Some expensive calligraphy and paintings and artworks are piled up randomly in the tent. It is obvious that it is a bit difficult to take them all away in such a harsh environment, which is very troubled by Prince Morton. This is his lifelong collection.

Prince Morton did not ask a group of guards to vent his anger. He could only sit in the tent and sulk. He knew very well that unlike before, Huairou would be more likely to gain the loyalty of the guards.

That guy is so hateful!

If there were mechas, he would have ordered the woods to be razed to the ground. Unfortunately, now, let alone mechas, there is no even the most ordinary laser gun.

Just as Prince Morton was ruthless, the old man walked in inappropriately.

"Dear Your Highness, the old minister believes that we should form an alliance with that young man..."

"All the alliance is nothing!" Prince Morton said in a blazing voice: "They don't talk to us at all. Besides, we are not qualified to form an alliance with each other now."

"No, your highness is not saying this. What the other party has shown at the moment is just an excellent trap arrangement, which is just a survivability in the wild. In real battles, these powers are insignificant, and he has a woman to take care of. Strictly speaking, our power is much stronger than him. Besides, we have a spaceship to leave, but they don't!"

"Do they want to leave here?" Prince Morton's heart moved.

"No one wants to stay in this wilderness, even if the man wants, the woman will not..."

"You mean, we use spaceships to lure him into surrender?"

"Yes, Your Highness, we need his abundant wild survival skills to improve our plight. Of course, we need to understand the situation outside through them before they arrive at the storm. The old minister believes that they should be very clear about the recent situation of Zhuoer City."

"But, but... we returned in a bad situation not long ago, and we did not have the same negotiation conditions..." Prince Morton was a little hesitant.

"We are not begging them, but giving them charity, Your Highness. At this time, the seat of a spaceship is very precious." The old man's face was obviously much thicker than Prince Morton, so he said without hesitation.

"Okay... forget it today, we have time. We will send someone to communicate with him tomorrow and discuss cooperation." Prince Morton thought for a moment.

"Okay, let them have a good rest. After hanging for a night, I couldn't walk anymore, poor children..."

Next, Prince Morton regretted it to death because the fragrance of the fish soup made him feel absent-minded, and the light songs and dances that followed made him feel even more crazy.

It’s incomparable to see what life you live and what life others live!

I am a prince and respected. Not only do I live like a beggar, but I also eat compressed foods and nutrient solution that tastes the same. The most painful thing is that I don’t even have a woman around me. Failure, failure, failure, it’s too failed!

Imagining that at that end, a young man drinking fragrant fish soup and gnawing on the golden roasted lamb with a proud expression, Prince Morton had the urge to beat his chest and stamp his feet. This painful torment continued to torture Prince Morton until the singing suddenly disappeared, and then the orange bonfire was extinguished.

What happened?

"There are a large number of people approaching here." Just as Prince Morton listened, Tony appeared at the door of the tent like a ghost. Tony's face was a little pale, but he was in good spirits, and his cold eyes were still bright.

"Large number?" Morton was stunned.

"Yes, a large number of people are not clear about the specific number, but there must be a lot of people, because it is too dark and it is impossible to estimate the specific number, which is estimated to be around a hundred people."

"A hundred people, so many people can escape here, they must know what is going on outside, and they should have plenty of food, contact them immediately!"

Prince Morton stood up excitedly, with many people always giving people a sense of security.

"The other party's intention is not clear, so we should not act rashly, Your Highness!" The old man who sat on the ground also stood up with a cautious expression on his face.

"Dr. Wien is right, Your Highness."

"Well, okay, Tony, you can arrange for people to contact them first, test them before making a decision." Prince Morton was not a person who was determined to do so.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Tony immediately withdrew from the tent, and at the same time, he turned off the camping lights inside the tent. Immediately, the tent fell into boundless darkness. Inexplicably, Prince Morton had an ominous sign.

Why did you have this idea?

"Your Highness, the old minister's eyelids are always twitching. Will something happen?" said the old man in the dark.

"You feel this way, too?" Prince Morton was stunned.

"Yes, I was restless and frightened."

"Let's be careful."

"Your Highness, if something happens later, you must remember to run towards that person."

"Why?" Prince Morton immediately understood who the old man was talking about.

"A intuition, if we want to go home alive, we can only rely on that person."

"Hey, you are old, and this time you come out with me, you have suffered a lot. After you go home, I will report to your father and let you go home to enjoy your old age."

"Hehe, thank you for your kindness. This time I went out with Your Highness, the old minister volunteered to Your Majesty. This alien disaster broke out, which is probably going to have an impact on the seven major star fields. The old minister has always wanted to tell you that if you have any offense, please forgive me." The old man suddenly changed his tone and said humbly.

"If you have something to say, it's still an unknown idea whether you can go back alive. Don't keep it in your heart. I'm sorry that you are innocent." Prince Morton sighed.

"The old minister mainly engaged in scientific research in the Morton Dynasty. Although he had some titles, he never participated in the government affairs. However, over the years, the old minister has been caring about the future development of the Morton Dynasty... Since the alien disaster more than a hundred years ago, after the establishment of the Morton family, the Morton Empire has flourished and the people have lived and worked in peace and contentment. The Morton Star Domain is not the top, but it is also among the top three in the seven major star domains. The Morton Family can be said to have made an indelible contribution..."

"Of course!" Prince Morton rose a little pride. The development of the Morton family as Morton Star in the past 160 years can be said to be obvious to all.

"Your Highness, what you see is only the prosperity on the surface. In a sensational saying, it is called crisis everywhere, and it seems that it is not an exaggeration to worry about internal and external troubles!"

"Please pay attention to the wording!" Prince Morton snorted coldly in the dark.

"Haha, Your Highness, the so-called loyal words are unpleasant. If Your Highness cannot let the old minister speak freely, it would be better if the old minister didn't say it!"

"... Let's talk about your bloody recommendation to Xuanyuan. I am not a foolish lord, so I won't be able to finish listening to your words."

"Please be careful not to be impatient. When talking about internal troubles, it seems that it is a bit unavoidable, but it is an objective existence that cannot be denied. The Morton family took advantage of the alien disaster to establish the Morton Empire. The nobles and clans that followed the rise of the Morton family all gained the greatest benefits. This benefit gradually turned into corruption, which has endangered the Morton family. The corruption phenomenon is deeply rooted and it is all the way to the whole body. In the issue of punishing corruption, because they are afraid of all forces and are afraid of their heads and tails, they have reached a terminal illness..."

“Is it that serious?”

"Your Highness, the situation is more severe than you think. The state government is controlled by some big families. The Morton family has been undermined. Below is a silence. It seems that singing and dancing are coming to peace. In fact, it is a misfortune for the people. This contradiction is brewing and fermenting. Your Highness, if the aliens affect the Morton Galaxy this time, you will see the angry people like the ocean... Speaking of the army, although the Morton Galaxy is strong, the army actually checks and balances each other. They are not only loyal to the Morton family, but have serious factions. Except for the direct line, if something really happens, the interstellar fleet that the Morton family can mobilize is probably very limited..."

"That's all about internal troubles. I believe Prince Morton also has ears and eyes that can see and hear, just talk about external troubles. Among the seven star domains, because the Morton Galaxy was split from the interstellar alliance, the planet sovereignty and airspace sovereignty between the Morton Star Domain and other star domains has the most disputes. In the seven star domains, three star domains have sovereignty disputes with the Morton Galaxy. The three star domains are eyeing each other and are arranged with heavy troops on the route to the Morton Star Domain, and there are more than a dozen motherships. When the Morton Empire is in civil strife, does Your Highness think that those interstellar fleets are just watching the excitement?"

“…”

"Is there any way?" Morton asked after a moment of silence.

"Haha, the old minister watched His Highness grow up. The old minister knew that His Highness had no intention of government affairs. His Highness wanted to live a free and comfortable life. It was not that the old minister attacked His Highness. With His Highness's literary and military strategy, if he wanted to change the status quo of the Morton Empire, he would probably not be able to catch up."

"This is, since you said it, there must be a solution, otherwise you wouldn't waste your verbal words here..." In the darkness, Prince Morton sighed. He was still very clear about how much he was. The old man's evaluation was actually very pertinent. He had been avoiding it all the time.

"Reform and return the power to the people!"

"What?!" Prince Morton, who was sitting cross-legged, stood up and said sternly.

"His highness calms down, those people are coming, shhh..."
