"Don't ask so many questions now. I'll explain when we get there. Take good care of Yan Jin. I'll be waiting for you in front of His Majesty's gate."
"Okay." Yun Duo didn't ask any more questions. After responding seriously, she quickly checked her surroundings and, to make sure there were no followers, changed course and flew directly to the palace.
As they walked along, she explained to Yan Jin, "His Majesty has three sons and one daughter. The Second Prince, Crown Prince West, has been missing for some time and there has been no news of him. His Majesty is exhausted."
Princess Lorena is now acting as Chancellor of the Exchequer, assuming the duties of Prince West.
Yun Duo simply gave a brief introduction to the situation. The spaceship had arrived outside the palace and entered the palace without any hindrance, proceeding smoothly all the way to the entrance of the main palace.
From afar, before they even stopped, they could see Si Yuling standing on the high steps, his dark blue military uniform making him appear even more upright.
His handsome face was expressionless, his military cap was neatly worn on his head, and his short silver hair was hidden under the cap.
When the spaceship came to a stop, Si Yuling immediately came forward, his deep voice becoming even deeper, "Let's go, let's talk as we walk."
The three hurried inside. The guards did not stop them when they saw that it was Si Yuling who brought them. His Majesty had not been able to eat anything for some time, not even drink any nutrient solution. He would vomit it up immediately after drinking it.
I've been relying on intravenous nutrition to maintain basic nutrition for a while now, but I suddenly fainted this morning and still can't eat anything.
“We’re all out of ideas. I thought you’re a great cook, maybe you could help, so I asked you to come and give it a try.” Si Yuling quickly told Yan Jin about the situation.
"I spoke to His Majesty without your permission because the situation was urgent. I'm truly sorry. His Majesty also said that it doesn't matter whether it's useful or not," Si Yuling said apologetically.
After all, making a decision for Yan Jin without informing her beforehand was already overstepping his bounds.
"Alright." Yan Jin nodded. "Before cooking, may I check on His Majesty's condition before making a decision?"
“Of course.” Si Yuling nodded. They walked to the door of a room, and Si Yuling raised his hand to knock on the door.
"Come in," a woman's voice came from inside the room.
Si Yuling pushed open the door and entered. There was a large bed by the window in the room, and on the bed was a middle-aged man with a refined appearance.
The man had deep, penetrating eyes that seemed to draw people in. Three people sat beside him. After bowing, Si Yuling introduced them, "Your Majesty, this is Yan Jin, this is the First Prince Ye Erqia, the Third Prince Gabriel, and Princess Lorena."
"Hello," Yan Jin said respectfully.
The people opposite nodded in greeting, displaying the utmost royal restraint. Lorena narrowed her eyes and looked Yan Jin up and down, her eyes filled with contempt.
Is it really this little girl that makes Si Yuling look at her differently?
She's just a little younger and slightly prettier, but how can she compare to me? Why should I lose to such a woman?
But with her father present, Lorena remained tactful, asking, "Could you please allow our father to eat?"
Yan Jin bowed respectfully to His Majesty, who was lying on the bed, and said, "Your Majesty, may I have a few words with you at close range?"
"Of course." His Majesty chuckled, leaning against the headboard, his eyes full of smiles.
