Once he ascends the throne, his first step will be to deal with the Leiden family.

Those who achieve great things are not bound by trivialities and are able to bend and stretch.

“I know.” Helian Tu raised his hand slightly, stopping Arad from saying anything more. “As long as I become emperor, then it will all be worth it.”

Although Arad hesitated, he had no choice but to do as Heliantu instructed.

Holding the Second Prince's handwritten letter, Arad went to the Leiden family.

"Please convey that Helian Tu's guards request an audience." Arad skillfully pulled out 10,000 interstellar coins and handed them to the two gatekeepers.

Since the Second Prince was demoted to a commoner, Arad has become accustomed to readily taking out money when going out on business.

The two guards accepted the 10,000 interstellar coins, but their words were still arrogant and disdainful: "What are you doing paying respects to the family head?"

Suppressing his anger, Arad emphasized once again, "Please pass on this message."

"Huh? You think you can just announce it like that? Do you think you're still the Second Prince's personal guard?"

"You're wrong. You can't call him Second Prince anymore. You can only address him as Helian Tu."

Hahahaha!

The two guards said sarcastically, "Helian Tu? He's our master's useless grandson."

"Even the old man doesn't acknowledge this grandson, yet poor relatives still eagerly come knocking on our door."

Arad's fists clenched tightly, his anger seemingly about to erupt at any moment, but as the two guards had said, they had neither the standing nor the ability to resist; His Highness was still thinking...

"Get out of here!" the two guards roared.

Arad could only turn around and leave, wandering aimlessly through the streets of the capital planet. How was he going to explain this to the Second Prince when he got back?

"Arad!"

It sounded like someone was calling him. Arad thought he was hallucinating and continued walking forward.

Soon, a series of hurried footsteps sounded behind him, and Arad felt a heaviness on his shoulders.

Turning around, I saw it was Yuan'er!

"Yuan'er, what are you doing here?" Arad was overjoyed. "Shouldn't you be on duty at the palace right now?"

Yuan'er replied, "The Empress is seriously ill, and only Sister Zhuyue is serving her. We little maids have been quite free lately and can take turns resting."

Arad and Iris walked forward together. "There's a coffee shop up ahead. Let's go sit down."
