Chapter 179 The Dinner Begins (Part 1)

"The night Walker Ramsey died?"

Upon hearing the news from Meimei, Jin, the female driver, couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and then sped up her speech again: "So, Walker Ramsey's funeral hall was just completed over there, and Boko III here had sex with Adele?"

Meimei nodded: "That's right."

Gu Wei's lips twitched as well: "."

Fortunately, Qiao Kewen wasn't in the control room at that moment, otherwise Gu Wei would really like to see what kind of expression that Mold man would have—Jin's words were indeed quite fierce.
But soon.

Gu Wei then turned his attention back to reality from his thoughts about that big soybean.

In other words, after Walker Ramsay of the Royal Institute died, Boko III and Adele, who had been married for more than 30 years without children, suddenly became pregnant with their sixth daughter, Ophelia.
This description sounds a bit like Walker Ramsey is a Bi Yuntao (not a typo)?
Also, the style of this funeral hall scene seems to be similar to a series in Japanese adult films?

No, that was because the victim died and was then attacked by the minotaurs.
"."

And the other side.

Jin crossed her arms over her chest, pondered for a moment, and then continued to ask, "Aside from the time you conceived Ophelia, has there been any other unusual occurrences with Adele or Ophelia?"

“That’s all,” the bleat flew around and babbled on and on, “Adele’s pregnancy was almost without any problems—even if there were, they were just minor things, like being in a bad mood or not tasting food during her postpartum period. Anyway, she gave birth to Ophelia smoothly once her pregnancy was over.”

"In addition, Ophelia grew up just like most royal children. At most, she had a little more freedom of movement because of Jokowen. Anyway, I couldn't find anything unreasonable about it."

Jin nodded gently.

Then she scrolled through the reports sent by Meimei a few more times, changing her focus: "What about Samantha Sek? What's the current situation of this head of the Heraldry Academy?"

“She’s still in office,” Meimei shrugged. Soon, a half-length portrait of an old woman appeared in front of Jin: “Samantha Sek is just 108 years old this year and has been the head of the Heraldry Academy for more than 70 years.”

"She has been in charge of the coming-of-age ceremonies for all royal children to date. Apart from living a long life, there is nothing strange about her. At most, she is a bit power-hungry."

Jin stared at Samantha Ya Seik for a while longer.

Just as Meimei said.

The average lifespan in Bosca is around 100 years. It's not uncommon for a 108-year-old head of the Heraldry to be still in office, but it's not exactly strange either.

After all, it's normal for those in power to live long lives, and even ordinary people often live to be a hundred.

In Samantha Yasek's case, at most people would gossip behind her back, calling her an old geezer who still craved power.
“By the way, Meimei,” Jin then thought of something and asked a new question: “Was there anything wrong with the reproductive pattern of Boko III’s first five children before Walker Ramsay died?”

Let me see.

Meimei pulled up a set of data and started rattling off: "The eldest prince, Andluca, was born fifty-four years ago. The second princess, Lina, was born forty-eight years ago. The third prince, Pelu, was born thirty-four years ago. The fourth princess, Amy, was born twenty-five years ago. The fifth prince, Duke, was born eighteen years ago."

"The eldest prince and the second princess were born to the eldest princess, the third prince and the fourth princess were born to the second princess, and Duke was the first child of the fourth princess to Boko III—it seems there is no problem."

Gu Wei, who was listening in from the side, also frowned slightly.

It seems there's no problem.

The eldest queen mentioned by Meimei was named Gwynne, and the second queen was named Blanche. They married Boko III before he ascended the throne. Each of them bore Boko III a son and a daughter. Judging from their resumes alone, they were simply too old to have more children.

Although there was a fourteen-year gap between the second princess and the third prince, it is understandable that Boko III had just ascended the throne and was focused on consolidating his power.

Then Jin glanced at Meimei again: "I remember the Fourth Princess Consort was quite fertile?"

“Well, I should say she’s incredibly fertile,” Meimei said, transforming from her mecha form into her original form with a mature-looking smirk. “The fourth queen is named Tamia. She gave birth to ten children for Boko III in twenty years—although there were a bunch of twins and a pair of triplets, considering the average gestation period of twenty-one months for the Boscans, this frequency is quite terrifying.”

"It's fortunate that she entered the palace late and had a clear understanding of her own position. Like Adele, she didn't participate in raising children most of the time, otherwise she might have been dead long ago."

Jin stroked her chin, a hint of curiosity appearing on her face: "How did she catch Boko III's eye?"

Among the wives that Boko III married.

Grand Duchess Gwyneth's father was a professor at the highest university in Boko Haram. At the time, Boko III was vying for the crown prince position. In order to gain the support of academic circles and the middle class, he chose to marry Gwyneth to create an image of being willing to accept new circles.

Boko III married Blanche, the second wife, because her maternal clan was powerful. At the time of their marriage, Boko III had just been chosen as the crown prince and needed the political power of his wife's maternal clan to consolidate his own position and ease tensions between certain factions.

Adele's is even simpler.

Boko III valued the potential of Jokowen and the Mold civilization behind Adele. Having just ascended the throne, he could conveniently introduce such a powerful yet unaffected third party to balance the power of Blanche's maternal clan.

Meanwhile, Jokowen himself needed a powerful civilization to take care of Molde, which had almost sold off all its resources. So, with Adele taking the initiative to contact them, the two sides hit it off and the Third Queen of Boska took her seat.

As for the fourth princess, Tamia...
Meimei tilted her head: "Tamia came from a second-tier civilization that was annexed by the Boska civilization. Her parents were ordinary merchants. Because she was beautiful, she was chosen by Boko III during the selection of a queen and entered the palace. Twenty years ago, Boko III's status had reached its peak, and he no longer needed to use marriage to balance politics or gain support."

Gu Wei: "."

Okay, it's a pretty simple and blunt reason, but it's also reasonable.

Jin was slightly stunned, but quickly recovered: "Then..."

Before he could finish speaking...

Click——

The doors to the control room opened to both sides, and Qiao Kewen hurriedly walked in, saying as he went, "Ms. Jin, there's news from the royal family."

Jin immediately swallowed back what she was about to say: "How so?"

“Chief of the Interior Lynn just sent a message,” Jokowen pointed to his crew bracelet, “saying that Boko III has recovered and a welcome banquet has been prepared at the palace, which all members of the royal family will attend.”

"Oh?"

A strange glint flashed in Jin's eyes, as if she had confirmed something: "They really came."

Then she decisively turned to Meimei and said, "Meimei, tell Milo and the others to come back. It's about Boska."

"It's about time to reveal the truth."

Note:
My heart is a little uncomfortable, and although it's only four o'clock, I still don't dare to continue writing. When I was younger, I could stay up all night without worry, but now even a slight disruption to my biological clock puts a strain on me.
