The next day, the Capital Star Palace.

The palace is magnificent, with pearl curtains, golden pillars, and crystal jade lamps. It has a European style and perfectly combines the beauty of the East, symbolizing the peak of the wealth and power of the Canaanite Empire.

"Yu Ting, why did you announce something as important as your fertility level without discussing it with me and your father?"

The most noble woman in the Canaan Empire had lost all her splendor at this moment, but still looked elegant in her pale golden uniform. She was looking at her son sadly.

"That's the fact. There's nothing to discuss." Si Yuting lost the bloodiness on the battlefield, but his expression remained cold.

The queen knew her son's temperament and could only sigh helplessly.

"Oh, I've worked hard for you all these years."

Thinking of this, Gong Lingyu couldn't help but feel a little guilty. If Yu Ting hadn't overexhausted his mental energy to protect the entire Canaan Empire, his fertility value would not have continued to decline.

But he never complained, as if he was born for the battlefield.

"The situation in the east has stabilized, it's time for you to rest." Emperor Si Chen also said.

"This time I brought Cheng Feng and the others back, and planned to go to the Beisha meteorite belt to chase the star thieves. Don't let your guard down on the eastern border. I have to rush back as soon as possible." Si Yuting rejected the idea of ​​staying in the palace.

After a pause, he added: "Let's call off the Qu family's marriage."

When the queen heard this, she suddenly became anxious: "No! This has been decided a long time ago. Yesterday I discussed this matter with the head of the Qu family. I didn't see you objecting before. Now you can retreat no matter what."

"It doesn't matter to me whether we get married or not. As long as we quit, please don't force me, Queen Mother." Si Yuting's expression was cold. He didn't feel anything about the fertility issue. Since it happened, there is no need to continue this marriage. .

"Yu Ting, I asked the Qu family and the girl is willing. We will give you more compensation in other aspects. When your brother and sister-in-law give birth to a second child, one of them will be adopted by you."

"No need." Si Yuting simply refused.

"Your mother has made an appointment with the Qu family to come to the palace. She will probably come soon. Your fiancée will also come. It won't be too late for you to make a decision after meeting her later." His Majesty the Emperor also spoke up.

"Yes, I have seen that girl's photo. She is cute and fresh. Maybe you will like it." The queen continued to be tempting.

Unfortunately, no matter how they tried to persuade Si Yuting, Si Yuting remained unmoved and stood up directly to leave: "Your father, the Queen and your mother, please make it clear to Miss Qu family that if the Qu family needs any compensation, it can be paid directly from my account, and I will also If you go to the Beisha meteorite belt, you won’t have to stay much.”

"Hey! I haven't eaten the rice yet."

The queen stretched out her hand, but unfortunately Si Yuting was tall and had long legs, so he left the palace in a few steps.

The guard guarding the door knew that both His Highnesses could enter and leave the palace at will, so they only bowed respectfully and did not stop them. Of course, they could not stop them.

The queen could only sigh helplessly for her second son who had no food and salt, and the emperor gently patted her back to comfort her.

The emperor raised his head and looked at it. He saw that it was from the personal guard and said to the queen: "The Qu family has entered the palace. Ling'er, let's pack up and go to the West Flower Hall."

"You're here? It would be nice if you came earlier." The queen couldn't help feeling regretful.

On the other side of the palace, Qu Tong, who rarely dressed up to attend, followed several elders of the Qu family, passing through the long corridor and admiring the prosperity of the palace with interest.

On the other side of the rose wall, someone left the palace in a hurry.

The captain of the guard led several people to the West Flower Hall. The emperor and empress had not arrived yet, but exquisite food was already placed on the dining table.

Qu Tong's mood improved visibly. After taking nutrient solution for a few days, there was no trace of bird in his mouth.

Qu Jianwen saw that Qu Tong focused on eating for a long time, and he secretly said that he had no future.

Turning around, I saw the more direct looks in my son's and younger brother's eyes...

Simply put your head aside, out of sight and out of mind.

Without making anyone wait for a long time, the two people, dressed in rich clothes, appeared at the head of the guest table together.

Qu Tong saluted along with Qu Jianwen and others.

"You're welcome, Count Qu. Please sit down, everyone." The emperor raised his hand with a hint of dignity.

Qu Tong also looked at the two of them carefully. The emperor was similar to what he imagined, with a superior attitude and a somewhat serious expression, but the queen, on the other hand, was gentle and noble. He noticed her gaze and smiled at her.

Qu Tong looked away embarrassedly, lowered his head and listened intently to Qu Jianwen and the emperor's polite words.

As a junior, Qu Tong could not interrupt in this situation. The Queen would occasionally say a few words, and her words would often be echoed and adopted by His Majesty the Emperor.

It seems that the rumors are true. The relationship between His Majesty the Emperor and the Queen is very good. At least it should make her feel good.

The queen also kept paying attention to Qu Tong. The little girl sat upright, without stage fright or rudeness. She only occasionally stared blankly at the plate of vegetables in front of her. She was very bored and felt a little funny in her heart. She raised her hands to let everyone eat first.

A maid came over to serve him. Qu Tong waited quietly for the maid to help arrange the plates, and said thank you softly.

She waited until the emperor and empress who came first moved their chopsticks before she started eating with the rest of the Qu family.

Qu Tong first picked up a piece of radish and noticed the difference the moment he put it in his mouth. It was not very delicious, with a light earthy smell and a slight bitterness, but compared to the tasteless nutrient solution, it was still acceptable. within the range.

Qu Tong chewed very slowly, and after eating, he picked up a piece of meat from an unknown animal. The roast was tender and moderate, and it still had a bitter taste, but it was much lighter than vegetables.

After tasting a few dishes, Qu Tong discovered that the food in Xingxing seemed to be contaminated, with a peculiar bitter taste. However, the meat was purified more thoroughly, and the fishy and bitter taste was much lighter.

For people who don't have high food requirements, they won't think much of it. Although Qu Tong could taste it, he still ate some of each dish.

Without him, I am used to eating.

When taking nutritional supplements, there is always a feeling that the stomach is full, but the brain feels that it is not full.

Next to him, Qu Jianwen was still flattering: "This meat is fat but not greasy, and it is delicious and delicious. It is the best I have ever eaten. Could this be the result of the major breakthrough in the purification of exotic animal meat announced by the pharmacists union a few days ago? "

The queen in charge smiled and nodded: "It was indeed sent from the Lan family."

After the meal, the queen left Qu Tong alone, which played into Qu Tong's hands.

The maid took Qu Tong to a room slightly smaller than the West Flower Hall, and thoughtfully made her a cup of rose tea.

While drinking, Qu Tong looked around the room, recalling the treatment she received when she entered the palace, and guessed that the queen had no intention of embarrassing her.

The queen came in wearing another outfit. It was more homely than the formal attire she had just worn, but it was also a graceful and luxurious floor-length dress.
