Capital Star, Helian Tu's private residence.

"How is it?" Helian Tu's face grew increasingly gloomy as he looked at Arad kneeling before him.

Arad tried his best to minimize his presence, saying, "Her Majesty... returned to the Leiden family today."

"I'll leave in about an hour."

Helian Tu now harbors the deepest resentment towards Leidenxin and Leidenhong, but the old man Leidenhong is cunning and difficult to approach.

But Leidensing...

"Do you have a friend who works at Leidensing Palace?"

Arad trembled involuntarily. "Yes, yes, that person's name is Yuan'er."

Helian Tu read the name aloud, "Yuan'er... Yuan'er..."

"Is there a small red mole on the side of your face?"

Arad looked up abruptly. His Highness actually remembered, didn't he...?

Helian Tu smiled dismissively, "Don't worry, knowing that Yuan'er is your beloved, I will definitely protect her and ensure her safe escape."

"Arad, are you willing to believe me, Your Highness?" Helian Tu coaxed patiently.

"Your subject, Your subject is willing to serve Your Highness."

Heliantu walked up to Arad and helped him up. "Arad, I know your loyalty to me."

"When I rise again, I will certainly not treat you unfairly."

Arad respectfully withdrew and went to find Yuan'er.

After Arad left, Heliantu paced around the room and inadvertently saw the private seal that represented royal status.

"Oh……"

The next second, the personal seal was already in his hand, and it instantly turned into powder and disappeared into the air.

The night was quiet.

A man and a woman met at the rockery in the side garden of what is now the Queen's Palace.

"Are you... alright? Did the Second Prince's matter implicate you?" Yuan'er's voice was very anxious. Ever since the news of the Second Prince's demotion to commoner spread, she had been worried about Arad. Seeing him now, she finally felt a little relieved.

Arad silently pulled Yuan'er into his arms. "I'm fine. How about you?"

Yuan'er leaned back and slowly said, "I'm fine, everything is alright."

"The Queen returned to the Leiden family today, but it seems to have been unsuccessful. When she returned, she dismissed us all, leaving only Sister Zhuyue behind."

Arad was conflicted. He shouldn't involve Yuan'er, but how should he explain it to His Highness?

Yuan'er and Arad have known each other for many years, but only officially became a couple last year. They are very familiar with each other.

At this moment, Yuan'er could already sense that something was wrong with Arad's emotions.

"Arad, what's wrong?" Yuan'er looked up at the person in front of her. "Just tell me what's wrong."

"You said it yourself, why are you hesitating now!"

Arad smiled at Yuan'er, "I'm just worried about Your Highness's situation."

Yuan'er frowned slightly, "After all, he is the child of Her Majesty and the Empress. Perhaps he can return to the palace after this storm has passed."

Arad chimed in, "Let's hope so."

The two had only a short time together. Arad had nothing to do with what Tihliantu had told him, and after spending a brief moment with Yuan'er, he left.

He would risk everything for what His Highness entrusted to him, but not for Yuan'er.

The trending topics on StarNet have been changing constantly these past few days, but the discussions about Helian Tu being demoted to a commoner and Helian Tu colluding with interstellar pirates to murder Helian Jue have never subsided.

No matter how noisy and chaotic it was outside, it didn't affect Qiao You's mood at all.

To make the performance complete, Helian Jue feigned illness and stayed in the villa with his fish, thoroughly enjoying himself.

"Brother, the Little Mermaid's Adventure on Planet Ao Xing is going to be made into a TV series!" Qiao You shouted loudly from the living room toward Helian Jue's study.

After shouting, he continued to lie on the sofa and watch cartoons.

Helian Jue, who was on the phone with Lin Zhong, glanced outside through the open door and said, "Continue."

"Yes!" Lin Zhong's voice came through the personal terminal, "Leidenhong wants to kill Leidenxin."

"Based on what His Majesty said, Leidenhong probably thinks that Heliantu, having been demoted to a commoner, has no chance of winning the crown prince election, so he wants to put someone else by His Majesty's side."

Lin Zhong's calm voice, without much ripple, said, "Furthermore, according to reports from scouts, Leidenhong seems to have a backup plan, and has been quietly searching throughout the interstellar space for young men and women who resemble... Prince Qiao You."

Upon hearing Qiao You's name, Helian Jue's emotions fluctuated. "Youyou?"

"Yes!" Lin Zhong replied, "Leidenhong is probably planning to make moves regarding the selection of the Crown Princess."

"Don't alert them, stay alert at all times," Helian Jue instructed. "Also, follow Helian Cheng's leads and search for Bai Heng throughout the entire interstellar space."

"Bai Heng is the key to Laledenhong's downfall."

Lin Zhong hurriedly hung up the phone and did as instructed.
