Since Yi Ran sent her aunt away from the palace this morning, she seemed to have never seen her again.

The maid replied respectfully: "Princess, I don't know where Lady Yi Ran has gone. Do you have any orders?"

Huangfu Liyue didn't tell the maid, but only said: "I'm going to work in the study, don't bother me, when Yiran comes back later, just ask her to bring some refreshments to the study."

As a female official in Chang'an Palace, Yi Ran knows her taste better, she is not used to being served by other people.

The maid nodded and said, "Okay, princess."

After finishing the order, Huangfu Liyue went upstairs.

...

After half an hour.

study.

Sitting at the desk in the study, Huangfu Liyue was looking at the company's recent profit data, analyzing the company's new clothing, and where improvements were needed.

Suddenly, there was a "knock knock" knock at the door.

"Come in."

After she answered, Yi Ran walked in with a tray.

On the tray are two exquisite refreshments and a glass of fresh fruit juice.

"Princess, the tea you want."

Yi Ran respectfully placed the refreshments at Huangfu Liyue's hand.

Huangfu Liyue looked up at her, and asked inadvertently, "Yi Ran, why haven't I seen you all day?"

Yi Ran replied: "Princess, after I sent His Highness's private teacher out of the palace today, I felt a little unwell, so I rested in the residence for a while, and I didn't come in time to say hello to you, Princess, please forgive me."

Hearing what she said, Huangfu Liyue naturally wouldn't blame her, but instead asked with concern: "Are you alright?"

"It's okay, it's much better, thank you princess for your concern."

"It's fine."

"Princess, then I won't bother you."

"Ah."

Yi Ran backed out, Huangfu Liyue stopped the work in hand, picked up a piece of tea in front of her, and brought it to her mouth.

After chewing a few times, her face changed slightly, and she stared blankly at the tea in her hand.

She doesn't like things that are too sweet and greasy, so she told Yi Ran long ago that the cakes in the bedroom usually only need three parts of sugar.

Yi Ran kept her preferences in mind and never made a mistake.

This time, they brought tea with whole sugar.

Huangfu Liyue quietly put down the refreshment and looked outside the door.

Perhaps, it was because Yiran was unwell that he didn't notice this.

She didn't take it seriously, pushed away the pastry in front of her, and continued to check the company's operating data.

...

the other side.

The king is dealing with state affairs in the palace.

But his eyes were fixed on the state documents, but his thoughts were not on the content of the documents at all.

His mind was full of what the Queen had said.

Within three days, if she is not allowed to return to the Queen's position and declare Huangfu Yuncheng as the heir, he will never be able to see Suying again.

Thinking of this, the king frowned, very sad.

He didn't protect Suying well back then, which caused Suying to suffer so much, and ended up committing suicide in the end.

In his heart, he felt endless guilt towards her.

Now that he finally found out that she was still alive, he would do everything in his power to protect her.

However, the queen's condition...

When worried, Richard walked in with Huangfu Yeting.

"Your Majesty, the Second Prince is here."

The king collected his thoughts and looked at Richard.

He knew that Richard was the queen's man, and every time he saw him, there was a complicated emotion in his eyes.

"Go down."

Richard naturally sensed the king's indifferent tone.

He didn't say a word, and retreated silently.

The king's gaze finally fixed on Huangfu Yeting.

"Princess Lingxi is gone?"

Huangfu Yeting nodded.

"Yes, she's gone."

The king sighed regretfully and got up from his seat.

"It can be seen that this Princess Lingxi likes you very much, otherwise, she would not choose to leave so soon."

Huangfu Yeting lowered his eyelids, with a gloomy look in his eyes.

"Father, I came here to tell you about this matter."

The king looked at him suspiciously and asked, "What?"

"I hope that my father will agree to let me go to Country E to find Lingxi."

As soon as he spoke, the king's face changed suddenly.

"Go to country E?"

"Yes, Lingxi told me that she will marry someone else after returning to China. Father, I want to follow my heart and go to Country E to save her and let her see her own heart clearly."

His words from the bottom of his heart were not understood by the king.

"You are a prince. You not only manage the major companies under the royal family, but also help me with state affairs. How can you leave the country just because of your children's personal relationship?"

Huangfu Yeting nodded slightly.

"Father, state affairs, and even the affairs of the royal family's business can never be finished.

Please rest assured, father, I will arrange everything before I leave.

I hope that the father and the king can fulfill the son this time. If she marries someone else, I will regret it for the rest of my life. "

Listening to his firm tone, the king sighed.

"Since she has agreed to marry someone else, what's the use of you going?"

"Father, I don't have to ask her to marry me when I go to Country E. As long as I persist, it doesn't matter what the outcome will be."

The king looked at him with a deep expression and said, "You have grown up, this is your decision. Logically speaking, father shouldn't stop you, but during this time, you really can't leave the palace."

Huangfu Yeting looked at his father suspiciously.

"Father, why?"

The king walked up to him, put his hands on his shoulders, and said solemnly: "Father is old, it's time to abdicate, father is thinking, and will choose an heir from you and Yuncheng in these two days."

Hearing this, Huangfu Yeting was surprised.

"Father, why is it so sudden? You are not old at all, so there is no need to be so anxious."

The king shook his head.

"My father's body, my father himself knows, Ye Ting, what do you think about the position of heir?"

Huangfu Yeting's expression remained unchanged.

"Father, don't worry, I don't have any thoughts. Brother Wang is the eldest son, and he is much older than me. No matter in terms of experience or ability, he is better than me. The successor in my heart has always been him. .”

"You really think so?"

His frank words made the king feel at ease.

It seemed that he was overthinking.

Huangfu Yeting nodded solemnly.

"Father, I'm only in my early twenties, and I haven't finished my studies yet. I know I don't have the ability to govern the country, so I don't need to compete with Brother Wang for the position of heir."

"With your words, father and king will feel at ease."

The king sat down, and raised his hand again, signaling him to sit down.

The father and son also had a heart-to-heart chat.

"During this time, all the ministers and even the common people are guessing that they think that I have always favored you because of Su Ying, so I will definitely hand over the throne to you.

In fact, their guesses were wrong. Over the years, I have paid special attention to you, not because of partiality, but because you lost your mother from birth.

You don't have the love and care of your mother. As a father, I naturally take care of you more, but this kind of care becomes partial in the eyes of outsiders. "
