Rebirth Counterattack: I Heard That the Imperial Marshal Has a Crush on Me

“The Sun family had a big appetite,” Chu Muxi said. “And it seemed that they had been planning for a long time, but why was it that until now, only Sun Hong had climbed to such a high position in the First Army?”

Chu Muxi raised this point, feeling somewhat puzzled.

“The eldest son of the Sun family married the daughter of Councillor Donahue, a daughter of a branch family, five years ago, and was engaged to the second son of Viscount Lambert last year,” Lu Junzhi said slowly.

Chu Muxi touched his chin. “The military, the parliament, the royal family—they really didn’t leave any place behind.”

The Sun family’s wolfish ambitions were almost unconcealed. Did they already feel that they had won the victory?

Chu Muxi recalled some details from before, but unfortunately, he had no clue for the time being.

“Uncomfortable?” Lu Junzhi saw that he had been looking down in thought, and his face did not look very good.

Chu Muxi shook his head. “No, I was just thinking about something, but I don’t have any clue now.”

“Then don’t think about it,” Lu Junzhi said gently. “Don’t worry, I’m still here.”

Lu Junzhi felt a little distressed. Those who were the same age as Chu Muxi were all living recklessly and only cared about the life in front of them every day.

But Chu Muxi couldn’t do that. His mother had died of illness before he came of age.

And he had a father like Chu Tianhao, who thought about how to plot against his own son every day.

Who could bear so much at his age?

Now, Chu Muxi was not only a little gloomy, but he was also getting stronger and stronger. Lu Junzhi felt sorry for him and was also a little proud.

Such a good Chu Muxi belonged to him, Lu Junzhi.

Chu Muxi touched his ear and said, “I’m just a little worried. I always feel that the Sun family seemed to be a little impatient recently.”

First, Lynn had found something wrong, and then this freedom organization also found the problem.

Before, the Sun family was almost completely hidden underwater, without any movement.

But recently, they had been caught by others frequently, and finally, they all fell into Lu Junzhi’s hands.

It seemed a bit coincidental.

“The royal family is indeed determined to reform recently, and many policies were still being discussed privately,” Lu Junzhi said calmly.

After all, the imperial royal family had existed for nearly a thousand years, and the royal family had not done anything that would anger the heavens and the people. For the vast majority of people, they still lived a stable life under the current system of the empire and did not want sudden changes.

Therefore, it was not so easy to overthrow the royal family.

“What was going on with the Alliance recently? Were they ready to make a move?” Chu Muxi didn’t know much about the Alliance.

Although the Alliance and the Empire had been fighting countless wars of varying sizes for a hundred years, especially in the border galaxies, there had always been various frictions.

But since Lu Junzhi established the Deep Space Fleet, the two sides signed a 100-year peace agreement.

In the first few years, the Alliance seemed to be scared and did not take any action for a long time, not even any tentative actions.

So, had they secretly doing something underground?

Chu Muxi and Lu Junzhi looked at each other, and Lu Junzhi said, “The Alliance had been holding a new election since last year.”

Chu Muxi immediately understood the potential meaning of Lu Junzhi’s words.

Each leadership team had its own political decisions. The previous one came to power when the peace agreement was signed, and he was considered a peace advocate.

But recently, when the new election started, some people’s minds began to become active.

Those were the war advocates.
