A is in StarCraft, just disembarked from the Zerg Prince spaceship.

......

That night, the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess went on a crazy rampage.

"Awoooooo, hahahahahaha—"

The little butterfly rolled, jumped, twirled, and crawled on the bed: "I took down the Xiongbao Association! Hahahahahahaha—"

"Our baby is amazing!" The Crown Princess clapped enthusiastically.

"Yao yao yao yao yao yao!" The little butterfly kissed him.

It's not appropriate to act crazy when others are around, as you have to consider the Crown Prince's image. It's better to act crazy with the Crown Princess.

My God, he's amazing! This combo was like a dream, every punch was deadly, and that Xiongbao Association thing collapsed with a thud.

Hahahaha, you died so quickly, you weakling! Get up and fight another three hundred rounds!

The Crown Prince kissed the Crown Princess a few more times and promised, "Wait until I take down the council! Wait until I sweep all this bad luck out of the country, and I'll give you a grand and glorious wedding."

"What? We can only get married after everything is destroyed?" The Crown Princess felt like the sky had fallen.

The Crown Prince, sensing the ambiguity, quickly kissed him twice more to smooth things over: "No, no, no, even if we can't get rid of him, we'll still have a grand wedding!"

What if things can't be brought down in a short time? Will he still get married?

Hehehehehehe, getting married first and then having sex is also an option!

The Crown Princess reached out and pinched his toes that were sticking out of his pajama bottoms. "Then shouldn't the Crown Prince discuss the wedding date with the Crown Princess?"

The crown prince paused in his rolling and jumping motion, then looked up with sparkling eyes: "What? Now?"

The little butterfly's long hair, which had been a mess just moments before and was haphazardly covering her face, now crawled over like a white-haired female ghost, throwing herself into the Crown Princess's arms and pressing herself firmly against him.

That's hilarious.

Gao Tian smiled and accepted the sudden, sleep-paralyzing hug.

Wow, I've got my lungs in the air!

This pretty little butterfly is so strong, it almost knocked him off the bed.

But our baby is still the cutest, a sweet burden.

The Crown Prince wriggled out of his arms, sat cross-legged, ruffled his hair haphazardly, and began to meticulously prepare it with a serious expression: "But our Zerg Crown Prince's wedding requires a lot of preparation; it's a state event. Venue, attire, ceremony, media, guests..." He counted on his fingers, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper, "The protocol department will need at least six months to prepare, right?"

"Six months?!"

The Crown Princess was also taken aback, sitting up abruptly. "This has taken too long!"

"Exactly!" His Highness the Crown Prince echoed indignantly.

They both sat up at the same time.

Lan and Gaotian started talking head to head:

"They prepared for more than a month for this relatively simple diplomatic ceremony, while they prepared for our grand wedding, which required a lot of fanfare. It would be a conservative estimate to say that they prepared for half a year."

"Couldn't they have been a little faster?"

"Gao Tian asked in despair."

"Exactly!" the Crown Prince exclaimed indignantly, "That bunch of useless idiots in the Protocol Department!"

"Is there a way to speed them up?"

"Emmm, this..."

"I'm just a crown princess with no title or status..." Gao Tian covered his face and pretended to cry.

"Yay! Yay! Yay! Yay!" The Crown Prince quickly comforted him, "Tomorrow, I'll send the Minister of Protocol back to the Empire and have him prepare for our wedding ceremony. The sooner, the better!"

"Really? Are you just making empty promises?" Gao Tian covered his face, still feigning tears. "I'm just an ordinary person from a good family, and I've ended up in your Zerg Empire without any status or identity..."

The Crown Prince quickly interrupted his spellcasting with a "no, no, no," saying, "I will definitely send the Minister of Protocol back to the Empire tomorrow!"

"Won't the protocol chief be angry with me?"

"He dares—preparing for the Crown Prince and Crown Princess's wedding ceremony is simply his duty!" the Crown Prince said resolutely.

I'm sorry, Minister of Protocol.

I feel bad for making you travel back and forth, but the Crown Princess is still more important.

"Alright then." The Crown Princess was satisfied and grabbed the Crown Prince, kissing his lips: "Yaoyao."

"Yo yo yo yo yo yo yo!"

......

Early the next morning.

As soon as he got up, Gao Tian asked Lan if he had anything planned for the day.

Lan: "Nothing, what are you doing?"

The situation in the Empire has basically stabilized; only some final touches remain.

Those matters can be handled collaboratively by Carey, his political aide, and Justice Neil; there's basically no need to consult him again.

The Crown Princess said, "Emmm..."

Gao Tian's expression showed a hint of hesitation.

I don't know how to say it.

"What's wrong?" Lan looked at him strangely.

"emmm."

"Speak your mind," the Crown Prince pinched him. "Are you deliberately trying to make me angry?"

Gao Tian then hesitated before saying, "I'd like to hold a small funeral for Gao Xing and Qin Qin... Would you like to come?"

......

Actually, Gao Tian was quite hesitant.

Gao Xing and Qin Qin... well, you could say they were his parents, since this body belonged to their child. He took over this child's body, grew up as their child, and it was only natural for him to fulfill his responsibilities.

But Lan doesn't seem to have much contact with them.

Having lost his parents at a young age and never having met them, he had no feelings for either of them, let alone Lan.

Originally, he just wanted to have a small and simple funeral for Gao Xing's family, just him and the instructor. But Lan... well... Lan is now their daughter-in-law, would he want to go?

Lan: "Of course I'm going!"

Gao Tian: "Actually, I'm not going—ouch!"

"I'm going to marry you, how can I not go to your parents' funeral?" Lan pinched him.

Gao Tian looked at him for a while, smiled, kissed his forehead, and then nuzzled against him: "Okay."

He pressed his cheek against the prince's hair, hugged the prince and shook him, repeating, "Okay."

"Thank you, baby."

*******************

......

The burial plots chosen for Gao Xing and the others were in a newly opened senior officers' cemetery within the military cemetery.

The environment is great, with trees, lawns, and spacious grounds; everything is green as far as the eye can see.

Finding such a cemetery on Earth is beyond what money can buy.

Because Gao Tian is now a general, his parents can also apply for very good burial plots.

Before this, Gao Tian's impression of the martyrs' cemetery was that it was full of rows of neat tombstones. He didn't know that high-ranking military officers could be buried separately on the mountain.

The weather today is good.

The sky was covered with clouds, but it was clear.

Sunlight pierced through the clouds, casting dappled shadows on the lawn of the military martyrs' cemetery.

The October wind, carrying the scent of leaves and earth, gently brushes past the neatly arranged tombstones.

Each gray-white marble tombstone stands like a silent soldier, upright in its post, continuing to guard this peaceful land.

Gao Tian stood at the entrance of the cemetery, dressed in a military uniform, which was perfectly pressed, with golden epaulets gleaming in the sunlight, his posture as upright as a pine tree.

Today, I'm not just wearing a military uniform because it's solemn, but... well, I feel like Gao Xing and Qin Qin probably also want to see their child grow up and wear a military uniform.

Lan, dressed in a simple yet sophisticated white suit, stood beside him, her fingers gently hooking around his fingertips.

The Crown Prince was dressed up specially today, his silver hair sparkling and impeccable, like a wedding being held in front of his boyfriend's parents' graves.
