Can you please show some compassion for yourself?!

". . . . . ."

Axiu hesitated, his eyelashes trembling, seeming reluctant to answer. But I wouldn't let him evade, so I pinched his earlobe and said, "You promised to be honest. Who wanted to kidnap Bu Huaiyuan? Who wanted to lock him up?"

". . . . . . Prime Minister," he croaked, "Gao Qingping."

I paused.

I knew that the person who could imprison Bu Huaiyuan without a sound and without any flaws, and had the ability to declare his death to the world, was definitely not an unknown person. I was mentally prepared, and even hearing the name Mu Haichao didn't cause much of a stir.

But Gao Qingping. . .

Although I had no interest in him and never actively sought information about him, no one who frequented the Star Network could be unfamiliar with his name.

After entering the interstellar era, everyone's lifespan had been extended by at least two hundred years, with an average lifespan of two hundred and seventy-five years. But Gao Qingping had been in the position of Prime Minister for one hundred and forty-seven years, firmly controlling the cabinet even before the current king inherited the throne.

Now, at almost 283 years old, he still had abundant energy to fight against various forces, to maintain his control over the cabinet and his influence over the entire capital star. Whenever news or information related to Gao Qingping is released, there will always be speculation on when he will step down and when he will pass away on the Star Network. There are even betting markets in the black market based on this, and it is said that the accumulated funds in the market are close to one billion star coins.

However, Gao Qingping does not seem like someone who wants to give up power. In recent years, his way of doing things has become more and more authoritarian, almost turning the entire cabinet into his own voice, which has caused dissatisfaction among many people. In addition, under pressure from the royal family and opposition from the military, many of the policies that Gao Qingping tried to implement could not be passed, and his support and control among the people are declining year by year.

Many people are guessing who his successor will be. After all, with Gao Qingping's personality, he definitely would not be willing to hand over the position of prime minister to someone else. The biggest possibility is to find ways to cultivate his legendary son.

There are also many speculations on the Star Network about his son. Gao Qingping had a political marriage with his wife Lin Sien, and it seems that they have no feelings for each other. After the decline of the Lin family, he never mentioned this weak omega son in public. It is rumored that the couple had a son, but his gender and appearance are unknown, and Gao Qingping rarely mentions this son in public.

In any case, although Gao Qingping's power is not as strong as before, he has been entrenched in the empire for so many years and has a deep-rooted foundation that is difficult to shake.

It is not surprising that he is the one who wants to deal with Bu Huaiyuan. Based on my occasional hearsay over the years, Gao Qingping is a thorough personal interest first and foremost, and he can do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, regardless of the cost.

Even if it means sacrificing a marshal who is almost a purple star for the empire, he will not hesitate.

I circled Gao Qingping's name in red characters on my light brain.

At this point, I finally sorted out everything that Bu Huaiyuan had experienced back then. Even with just a few words from Axiuna, I felt an uncontrollable anger, pain, and despair. I don't know how the person who experienced it could survive the long darkness.
