Chapter 118: 071 Hello, Captain_2
Just last night, his second brother Edwan stayed at the Imperial Palace for the third time in the past ten days.
According to the maid’s report in the palace, Edwan stayed in the same room as the old man!
What this represented was simply self-evident!
The Third Prince held his forehead and roared softly,
“I need a reason, what on earth is it! Aren’t you always boasting about your intelligence? Why are you all mute now! What exactly did Edwan do!”
The finance minister said in a low voice, “Your Highness, the economic reform proposed by the Second Prince is already a complete system of proposals, and it analyzes our country’s economic problems in detail. It’s normal for it to receive His Majesty’s appreciation. He must have prepared for it for years.”
“So?” The Third Prince said coldly, “Do you also favor him now?”
“Your Highness, you can completely trust in my loyalty to you,” the finance minister said, bowing his head and not daring to say more.
The Third Prince took a deep breath, “Sorry, I’m a bit anxious right now. I understand my second brother’s capabilities, but he hasn’t been in the palace for over ten years…is your daughter recently dating that Yang Ming?”
The finance minister smiled wryly, “They should not have officially started dating, it is difficult for parents to interfere in their children’s decisions, but this definitely won’t affect my political stance.”
“I believe you,” the Third Prince rubbed his forehead, “This Yang Ming has been drawing too much attention recently. General Uli, is he under your command now?”
“Your Highness,” the white-haired general said in a low voice, “Although he is in my Guard Corps, Fremont has always supported him secretly. And…Your Highness, I’m afraid I need to tell you some truths.”
“Speak.”
“He is simply a perfect soldier!”
Uli Corda’s voice grew a little excited as he spoke in a low voice,
“He has only been in my corps for half a month, and he’s already given us too many surprises.
“His physical fitness test ranks first among the entire Guard Army, in the combat exercises he knocked down seven or eight out of the top thirty on our combat ranking list consecutively, and finally had a draw due to exhaustion.
“His proficiency with weapons is also astonishing, any weapon in his hands quickly becomes a deadly tool.
“More surprising is his understanding of tactics, he defeated several old hands of ours in tactical simulations… We secretly formed an advisory unit for this reason, making him think it was a normal battalion-level virtual exercise, and then guess what…Uh, Your Highness, you don’t look very pleased.”
The Third Prince forced an awkward smile, “Continue, General Uli, I need to understand his strength.”
“We all lost, although it sounds unbelievable.”
Uli Corda said softly,
“In tactical simulations, virtual exercises, and even small-scale live ammunition exercises, we lost to him six times in a row.
“He is extremely adept at special raid operations. No, to be accurate, he never intended to engage us in a frontal firefight, consistently ambushing our headquarters, cutting off our communications, and assassinating our senior commanders.
“Oh, and yes, he is with the Second Prince…Your Highness, I suggest you either bribe him or eliminate him, if he gets a chance to showcase his talents, he will surely be highly valued by the Emperor.”
The Third Prince rubbed his forehead.
If not for the fact that General Uli’s last sentence was somewhat reasonable, he would have felt like kicking someone right now.
A scholarly-looking middle-aged man beside him pushed his glasses and said slowly,
“Your Highness should indeed pay attention to this Yang Ming, based on the information we have, the New Federation had also investigated him before, but after the large-scale retreat of the New Federation Agents in Ilando, they abandoned monitoring him.
“Looking at the timeline, the Second Prince’s major change in attitude also occurred after he started interacting with Yang Ming.
“The Second Prince is highly suspected of being influenced by him.”
A woman in the corner said, “According to the information from the Second Prince’s mansion, the Second Prince talks to Yang Ming once or twice a day, and at most times, seven or eight times… they discuss everything from politics and economics to topics about the opposite sex.”

The Third Prince murmured softly, “This Yang Ming… what is he doing?”
General Uli had keen hearing, and immediately took out his military network terminal, opened a three-dimensional projection, and projected an area within the Guard Corps’ Camp No. 4 base.
The General had commendable execution ability.
The Third Prince was somewhat amused and exasperated.
What he actually wanted to ask was, what was Yang Ming’s purpose for being in the Luofeng Empire, what was he seeking, and what was his true identity and background.
He did not wish to see in person what trivial things a mere captain was doing at the moment!
However, the Third Prince was soon intrigued by the figure in the surveillance footage.
In front of Yang Ming was a projection screen, displaying Windsor who had just woken up but had on exquisite makeup, the two seemed to have had a brief, pleasant morning chat, and were now saying goodbye to each other.
The Third Prince shot a black look at the finance minister.
The finance minister wore an awkward expression.
Everyone in the room was studying Yang Ming closely.
The light black military uniform Yang Ming wore was the exclusive color of the Royal Guard Army.
He was fastening the clasp on his belt, carefully examining the energy magazine of the laser pistol on his waist, diligently adjusting the neat collar, and finally picked up a flat-topped military cap.
Then, Yang Ming walked out of the dressing room with his hands behind his back.
The officers and soldiers approaching him almost instinctively puffed up their chests, raised their heads, and saluted in unison.
“Commander!”
The robust voices of the soldiers made the Third Prince’s eyelids twitch slightly.
“Hmm,” Yang Ming’s voice came, “Today, you have to compete against Team Three, they play a bit dirty, if you get hit, do you know what to do?”
“Yes! Hit back!”
“Are you brainless? If you don’t hit back, are you just going to take a beating without retaliating?” Yang Ming scolded, “Play even dirtier than they do! Relay this message to every participant today! Of course, don’t attack their genitalia, this is just routine sparring.”
“Yes, Commander!”
Phew!
The projection screen vanished.
General Uli muttered, “He’s very respected by the soldiers, Your Highness, because he’s strong, that’s just the way it is in the military.”
The Third Prince leaned back in his chair and, after contemplating, quickly said, “There’s no need to waste too much effort dealing with such a minor figure, right, Minister of Finance?”
“Of course, of course,” the finance minister replied somewhat guiltily.
The Third Prince said with a laugh, “The Sherman Empire delegation will arrive in Ilando in three days… assign the ceremonial and defensive tasks to Yang Ming’s group, you know what I mean, Uli.”
General Uli raised an eyebrow, “Let him make a small mistake? Lose his promotion opportunity?”
“Handle it as you see fit.”
The Third Prince said, “Continue to research the economic plans set by my second brother, we must find their weaknesses.”
General Uli shivered a bit upon hearing this.
He really wasn’t good at this.
