As Gu Qing Shan was pondering, his Holo-Brain lit up.
"Your Highness, what's the matter?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
[First of all, I'm only telling this to you alone for now, don't let anyone else know about it] the Empress spoke in a really low voice.
Her side was completely silent, the only thing he could hear was her voice.
It seems she had purposefully avoided everyone else to talk to Gu Qing Shan alone.
"Please go ahead" Gu Qing Shan answered.
[Iron Shroud has closed off my authority] the Empress' voice appeared frightened.
Iron Shroud is the name of the Fuxi Empire's ultimate AI, but the Empire doesn't use it for non-military purposes.
Iron Shroud has but a single purpose, that is to control and arrange the military strength of the country.
The Empire's royalty controls the Empire's three armies for the sake of war.
