    Four years later¡­¡­

    January 2090, five years have passed since the official implementation of the Empire¡¯s New Deal.  In the past five years, the New Deal has gradually spread to every corner of the galaxy, following Robin's conquests.  At present, both the nobles of the empire and the common people living under the wings of the empire are beginning to gradually feel the benefits and stability brought by the New Deal. This has caused the empire's national power to expand rapidly at an explosive speed, and after Robin announced last year  After leading the army to complete the historic unification of the galaxy at the end of the year, the empire's national power growth instantly reached an unimaginable peak.

    The greatest prosperous age in human history is about to come, and at the beginning of this prosperous age, the Crown Prince Robin, who has led mankind into glory, will also remove the title of Crown Prince on the first day of the new year in 2090, and truly wear the title of Crown Prince.  The crown of imperial power.

    Looking back on the six years he spent in the empire, Robin rose from an unknown outsider who first entered the empire to become the master of the world.  In these six years, Robin used a series of drastic reforms to completely eliminate all the remaining shortcomings of the empire, making the already crumbling empire burst into life again.

    This is an unbelievable miracle. Even Emperor Hoffmann, who chose Robin as his successor, never thought that Robin could complete all this in just six years.  Until now, when he was officially about to hand over his crown and the future of the empire to Robin, he still had the illusion that he was in a dream

    Ziwei Star, the imperial city.

    In the center of the imperial city, above the white clouds, is the top of the Emperor's Tower of Babel, which is shaped like a heroic monument.  The eyes of all humans in the entire universe have been focused here, waiting for the coronation ceremony to begin.

    At this moment, in the center of the magnificent rooftop, the 112-year-old Emperor Hoffmann sat upright on the throne that represented the authority of the emperor with a look of joy on his face.

    "Compared to six years ago, Emperor Hoffmann looks older now.  Pale hair, skin as wrinkled as dead wood, and cloudy eyes filled with age spots at the corners.  Now he has lost the invincible imperial style he had six years ago.  In the face of time, even a strong man like Emperor Hoffman, who once stood at the pinnacle of human power, could only bow his head sadly with reluctance.  Of course, compared to centenarians in the Earth era, Emperor Hoffmann's current physical functions have not completely declined.  According to Leona's estimation.  If Emperor Hoffmann could calmly recuperate in the next period of time, he might be able to maintain his life for about ten years.  And it is precisely for this reason.  Robin took the initiative to ask Emperor Hoffmann to pass on him, so that this old man who had given everything for mankind could relieve himself of the burden on his shoulders and live out his days with peace of mind.

    Perhaps in the eyes of the Machiavellian, Robin's initiative to ask Emperor Hoffman to give up the throne showed his eagerness for the throne.  However, Emperor Hoffmann did not see it that way.  After witnessing how Robin performed miracles for the past six years, he knew better than anyone else what Robin wanted.  He clearly knew that the reason why Robin worked so hard and was so eager was just to realize his grand ideal.  As for authority, in Robin's eyes, authority is just a tool to realize one's own ideals.  Therefore, what he values ????is not authority itself, but the effects that authority can produce.

    This is the courage that a true emperor can have.  And only emperors with ideals can lead mankind to conquer the universe.

    Emperor Hoffmann was very pleased with this. In his grandson, he seemed to see the figure of his most beloved daughter, and the figure of his stubborn son-in-law who was always unwilling to bow to him seemed to be looming.  The perfect blend of these two qualities makes Robin.  Looking at the heroic grandson in front of him, Emperor Hoffman was extremely pleased to discover that from unknown time on, Robin had become more suitable to become an emperor than he was.

    "Robin."

    Mixed with tears, Emperor Hoffman called out Robin's name.

    Seeing Robin kneeling down in front of him, Emperor Hoffman couldn't help but tearfully took off the crown on his head and put it on Robin himself: "I leave it to you, my empire,  My dream, and¡­ the future of humanity.¡±

    "Yes. I swear I will do it."

    Standing up with firm eyes, Robin, who had grown a short beard on his chin, suddenly burst out with the majesty of a king who rules the world.  He stretched out his hand to support Emperor Hoffmann, who seemed to have suddenly aged ten years, and turned around.  Raise your arms to the sky and shout.

    At the same time, people who witnessed this scene through satellite signals immediately set off a sound that reached into the sky on various planets and galaxies.  The sound like a roaring mountain and a tsunami seemed to penetrate the distance of space, crossing the distance of light years to meet each other

    An hour later, it was officiallyEmperor Hoffmann, who abdicated the throne, went to the palace to rest with the support of Imperial Queen Cecilia.

    As Robin officially ascended the throne, Cecilia, Robin's wife, naturally became the only queen of the empire. However, at the same time, Leona, who gave birth to Robin's son a year and a half ago, also received  The title of the imperial concubine.  Although Cecilia had already acquiesced to Leona's existence, this more or less diluted the joy at the moment.

    Furthermore, as Robin's wife, Cecilia knew clearly that now that she was seven months pregnant and about to give birth, her husband, who had just ascended to the throne of God, would personally conquer the extragalactic system and would not be able to be by her side.

    Going to the extragalactic galaxy to fight against the Insat invasion is an unavoidable responsibility for Robin as an emperor. Cecilia also knows that this day will come sooner or later.  However, when that day really comes, when Robin is really going to the murderous extragalactic battlefield, Cecilia still finds it difficult to accept the fact that Robin is about to leave her.

    Years ago, when the two just decided to get married, Cecilia had an agreement with Robin.  She and Robin agreed that no matter where Robin would conquer or how far he would go in the future, she, as his wife, would follow him and drive a giant steel ship to clear a path for him in the vast universe.  But now, after being seven months pregnant and becoming the empress of the empire, Cecilia could no longer follow Robin as before.  After all, in addition to being a wife, she is also a mother and a queen.

    At this moment, watching the pot-bellied Cecilia helping Emperor Hoffman stagger away, Robin let out a long sigh, and his voice revealed a kind of guilt that he couldn't let go.

    "Don't worry, I conducted a full-body examination on Cecilia not long ago. She is very healthy, and because her body is not highly developed, her pregnancy period will not be as long as mine. If everything goes well  If you do, maybe you can see the birth of your daughter with your own eyes before you set off." Beside her, Leona, who could see Robin's worry, said empathetically.

    From the perspective of the old times, Leona¡¯s words may be a bit strange.  After all, on the earth in the old era, the pregnancy period of human women was generally about 280 days. Although there were some slight differences depending on the race, generally speaking, the difference was not too big.  But now, when humans enter the space age, due to the huge physical differences between the parents, the pregnancy period of the baby has also begun to become different.

    Just like the first generation of astronauts, among those whose bodies are completely undeveloped and still maintain the average physique of humans on Earth, the shortest pregnancy period is only about five months.  And like Robin and Leona, a rare combination where both parents are saint-level powerhouses, the pregnancy period will become extra long.  Take Robin's eldest son Luo Xing, who is currently one and a half years old, as an example. He was conceived before Robin went on his second expedition to conquer the galaxy, and he stayed in Leona's belly for a total of thirteen months before he was born.  The long pregnancy period is more than twice as long as that of the general population.

    ¡°As for Cecilia, due to her low level of physical ability development, her pregnancy period will not be as long as Leona¡¯s.  But because of her father, her pregnancy period is more or less longer than that of ordinary people. Therefore, according to Leona's calculation, if everything goes well, Cecilia should give birth to a baby in the next few days.  baby girl.

    "Really? If that's the case, that would be great." Robin looked happy when he heard this, but looking at Leona next to him, he felt that he also owed her a lot.

    "Compared to many years ago, Leona, now a mother, is no longer the cold scientific research machine she used to be.  The birth of her son gave Leona, who was originally sexy and enchanting, a hint of maternal glory. Within this year and a half, Robin clearly knew that Leona had invested all her love in her son Luo Xing.  And it was Luo Xing's birth that allowed Leona to truly get rid of the harassment that had haunted her for years, allowing her to truly open up her heart and start to look at life like a real woman.

    But now, because she is about to go on an expedition to the extragalactic galaxy and fight the Insat people, Leona insists on following him on the grounds that she is the best biologist in the empire.  For this reason, she even separated from her son and left him in the care of Cecilia.

    Therefore, Robin also has an irreparable sense of guilt for Leona.

    "Do you feel you have wronged me?" Seeing the guilt in Robin's eyes, Leona smiled sweetly: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with leaving Xiaoxing to Cecilia to take care of. She is more suitable to be a mother than me, don't you?  Do you always say that I dote on Xiaoxing too much? If I had been taking care of him until he grew up, maybe when he becomes an adult, your throne will no longer be with him. So if you look at it this way"

    Leona smiled deliberately and slyly: "Look at it that way??I took advantage of it!  "

    ""

    Robin could see that Leona was forcing a smile, and also saw the reluctance in Leona's heart.  But at this moment, what else could he say?  He could only hold Leona into his arms with a wry smile, and use his warmth to dilute the melancholy hidden in her heart
