The entire screen lit up on the capital star for a whole day, but the Second Prince Helian Tu did not respond at all, nor did the official royal family.
On the contrary, news of the Second Prince's serious illness spread from his residence, and many royal physicians came to visit.
But netizens on the StarNet won't buy it. Who knows if the so-called serious illness is just a delaying tactic?
"Stop pretending, please give a direct answer."
"You have time to send a doctor to your home, but no time to issue a statement, right?"
"If it were really fake, why would they allow space pirates to stage such a scam?"
"I bet it's true."
"Hired a hitman! Tsk tsk tsk... He could be so ruthless to his half-brother. Helian Tu is treacherous and cunning, and doesn't deserve to be called a human being!"
"Please expel the Second Prince Helian Tu from the royal family register! This man maliciously harmed his own brothers and is unworthy to be a member of the royal family."
"Please remove Helian Tu from the royal register!"
"Please remove Helian Tu from the royal register!"
...
Dressed in her magnificent queen's uniform, Leidensing hurried to Turan Palace to see his son.
Although their relationship had become somewhat strained after Helian Tu grew up, he was still the child she had carried for ten months and gave birth to, so she still felt reluctant to let him go.
The father forced her to choose between her family and her son, putting her in a difficult position.
If she had to choose a son, then the honor of the Leiden family... From the moment she was born, the words her father said to her most often were that she must dedicate herself to the family's honor.
Before she married Helian Cheng, Helian Cheng already had an empress and no concubines in his harem. At the time, it was said that the current emperor and empress were deeply in love and he was willing to dismiss the harem for her.
At the time, Leidensin, who was still the youngest daughter, felt a pang of envy. How wonderful it would be if she could meet someone like that.
Through the optical computer and StarNet video, Leidenxin saw His Majesty and the Queen in perfect harmony, supporting each other through thick and thin.
One was handsome and tall, the other was beautiful and graceful; it was truly a wonderful story.
But that day, her father summoned her to his study, intending to send her to the palace.
"Xin'er, your father has cherished you for so many years, it's time for you to repay him." Leidenhong remained seated high above.
Standing at the lower end, upon hearing her father's words, Leidenxin immediately pledged her loyalty, "Father is good to Xin'er, and Xin'er will listen to Father and repay Father well."
So, despite his reluctance, Leidensin was sent to the palace by his father.
When she first entered the palace, she was just a maid. She watched the Emperor and Empress interact from afar and did not want to interfere, but her father kept pressuring her, so she had no choice but to do as he instructed.
While Empress Qingyue was away on business, with the help of her family, she drugged the Emperor, and the two had a relationship.
Later, she was made a concubine and lived in the palace for a long time.
After having a real relationship with His Majesty, Leidensine found that her mindset had changed.
Why can Su Shu stand proudly beside His Majesty and enjoy the respect of thousands, while she can only hide in the palace?
From that moment on, Leidensing began to take his father's instructions seriously, all in order to earn a place for himself.
A year or two later, Leidenxin became pregnant, but by then Empress Qingyue had already successfully given birth to her child.
Why? Why is Su Shu the Empress, while she can only be a concubine?
Even her son could only be an ordinary prince, while Su Shu's child was made crown prince at birth?
Leidensing was always proud and unwilling to be subordinate to others, and Leidenhong grasped this personality trait, forcing him to compete.
Fortunately, heaven was on her side. Su Shu went missing, the royal family issued an obituary, and through her father's mediation, she was made empress of the empire. Although she was only the second empress, she, Leidenxin, was now standing by His Majesty's side.
As time goes by, the name Su Shu will gradually be forgotten by everyone.
It would be even better if her son could replace Helian Jue as the crown prince. Even if he doesn't become the crown prince for the time being, it doesn't matter. Who can predict what will happen in the future?
Leidensin hurried to Turan Palace, having regained his senses by the time he arrived.
The message his father sent to him was clear: he was going to abandon Tu'er. So what about her?
What should she do?
"Your Highness, we've arrived," the personal maid whispered.
Leidensin looked at the incredibly familiar palace before him with a start, realizing that the road was actually quite short.
Upon entering the Turan Palace, I was led by a maid to Helian Tu's sleeping quarters.
"Tu'er, how are you?" Leidenxin hurried to the bedside.
Helian Tu was lying weakly on the bed, his face pale and his breathing unsteady.
"Mother, Mother, please save me!" Helian Tu pleaded. "Only you can save me."
"Mother, I am your own son..."
Leidenxin unconsciously loosened his grip on Helian Tu's hand. "Tu'er, it's not that your mother doesn't want to help, it's just..."
Hearing Leidensin say this, Heliantu understood.
That old man Leidenhon never intended to help him from the beginning; even the reward he offered was a lie!
"Good! Very good!"
Hahahaha—
"Leiden, you will never be as good as Su Shu."
"I've become a pawn of the Leiden family. Do you think you can continue to enjoy wealth and luxury?"
...
Leidensin left Turan Palace like a walking corpse. Was she wrong to make this choice?
But she was only trying to protect herself. She knew her father better than anyone else; his orders could not be disobeyed…
The following day, the royal family issued an official statement confirming that the Second Prince, Helian Tu, had indeed colluded with interstellar pirates to murder his elder brother. He was stripped of his royal title, his official title and residence were revoked, and he was demoted to a commoner.
