【Welcome to the interstellar news broadcast. According to reports, His Royal Highness the Little Prince has brought back the latest research results on star diamonds from the marginal planets. After the research institute resumes its use, it will be handed over to scientific researchers for practice. 】

[Currently, the technical information brought back by His Royal Highness is being stored in the research institute for strict preservation. According to relevant sources, this technical information is likely to make a major breakthrough in the military weapon research of the empire that has not made progress for many years...]

Research institute, data storage room.

The accompanying soldiers protecting Nan Xiao asked curiously: "Your Highness, if we do this... can we really lure spies from interstellar pirates into the bait?"

"Are we going to set up a net here, and arrest that person immediately when he arrives?"

Nan Xiao shook his head, and casually put the things into the safe.

"The spy of the interstellar pirates has been lurking in the Imperial Capital Research Institute for so long without being exposed. He must have a cautious character. This kind of trick is too obvious, and he will not be easily fooled."

"Then what should we do?"

"Strictly guard this document, and don't give anyone a chance to enter the document room until the day the institute officially resumes operations."

That spy will definitely find a scapegoat or his own subordinates to test the depths. They need to calm down so that they can relax their vigilance as much as possible.

The soldiers nodded in response.

Although Nan Xiao learned how to use firearms on the fringe planets, he was still not as good as a professional soldier after all.

Of course, the Detention Institute has nothing to do with him, and it will take a few days for the approval to go to the military department to get to him.

He also reads pharmacy books in the room every day, does experiments, and relaxes occasionally.

Every day, soldiers would come and quietly report to him the situation of the institute that day.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day before the institute resumed work, and the approval document for the military post was sent along with the intelligence of the past few days.

Nan Xiao glanced at the list given to him by the soldiers. There were a total of five people who wanted to enter the data storage room on the grounds of "searching for important research materials" during the closed period of the institute, but were stopped by guarding soldiers.

Nan Xiao brought this list into the game and showed it to Han Yuan.

The two locked their eyes on Lin Yiting almost at the same time.

Lin Yiting, Lin Yixiao's cousin, is the next person in power trained by the Lin family.

Unlike other members of the Lin family who served in the military, he worked as a civilian job, and he was also named an honorary professor in the research institute.

Because of his gentle and refined personality, he treats people politely, which is completely different from Lin Yixiao's kind of dude, and has always been valued in official circles.

Only Lin Yiting is alone, and the forces behind him are related to the military department. The rest of them are either ordinary families who study hard to become researchers, or have three generations of ancestors. They have no record of going to the edge of the planet. It is impossible. Get in touch with Star Pirates.

"Your Highness thinks it's Lin Yiting?"

Nan Xiao shook his head with a dignified expression, looking closely at Xing's eyes, there was a hint of resistance and avoidance in pain.

"... Lin Yiting should be just a pawn used by the spies to test the way."

"Your Highness, the Lin family is already considered a wealthy family in the imperial capital, and the next person in power of the Lin family can be your pawn..."

Nan Xiao gritted his teeth, his voice trembling.

"It can only be a member of the royal family... I have been weak since I was a child, and I am engaged to you, so I cannot inherit the throne, but the emperor has been diligent in political affairs and has a high prestige in the empire."

"As for my uncles, they have no real power. The Lin family is not an idiot. They won't leave my brother alone to bet on a few idle members of the royal family, or even take risks to collude with interstellar pirates."

"So... it's my emperor brother. For some reason, he got in touch with the interstellar pirates, and also sent the imperial secret research information to the interstellar pirates."

Han Yuan stared at the young man with slightly red eyes, his eyes darkened a bit, he reached out to take the list in Nan Xiao's hand, put it aside, and hugged the pale young man into his arms.

"...My family Xiao Xiao is very smart, and she has already guessed it. The scouts who went to investigate the deserted planet under the jurisdiction of the interstellar pirates also saw the soldiers around His Royal Highness there."

Nan Xiao tightly clenched his fist with the hand hanging by his side.

"Why... Father is so kind to him, I, I can't compete with him for the throne."

Obviously, the emperor loved him so much before, why did he become like this in less than a year?

Han Yuan sighed, and while stroking the young man's back with his palm, he answered in a low voice.

"Because you are engaged to me. Although he is not worried about you taking the throne, he is afraid of the military power in my hands... What is Your Highness going to do about this matter?"

Nan Xiao slowed down for a while before recovering his voice.

"If you wait until tomorrow and the emperor sends someone to fetch the technical information, then there is no room for change in this matter. Colluding with interstellar pirates is a crime of espionage for stealing state secrets. Even if it is not a death sentence, it will also be the abolition of the royal family status and exile to marginal planets. "

"Actually, Your Highness can choose to go to the prince first. I can come to you at any time through the holographic game, and I will ensure His Highness's safety."

Nan Xiao shook his head: "Then what? Pretend nothing happened? Then there are so many soldiers guarding the edge planets, so none of the lives lost in the war with the interstellar pirates have been confessed?"

"I will tell my father in advance... Let him make full preparations. No matter who makes the move tomorrow, everything will go according to the original plan."

Han Yuan stroked the soft hair of the young man in his arms, his voice low and hoarse.

"The elite army of Beicheng has arrived to lurk near the deserted planet, and will start bombing tomorrow."

"You have to be careful."

"Xiao Xiao too... remember that I can come to you anytime, huh?"

With a hoarse voice, Nan Xiao looked up at him: "En."

……

On the day the prince was exiled to the marginal planet, it was Nan Xiao who personally sent him there.

The army in Beicheng lined up to welcome them as usual, and the handsome and upright young men supported them all the way to send people to the prison on the edge of the planet.

When he arrived at the camp, his eyes were already scarlet, and the warm water dripped down his cheeks, making him feel salty and bitter.

He hugged Han Yuan, feeling unable to say anything, he was silent for a long time before whispering.

"Our engagement ... may be postponed again."

They lived on the edge of the planet for more than a year.

The interstellar pirates were blown up and their important scientific research base was destroyed. Several years of painstaking efforts were destroyed, and there was no spare power to start a war against the empire for a while.

He and Han Yuan watch the snow scene every day, and occasionally go hunting in the snow forest.

The prince is not very used to the bitter cold climate of the marginal planet, and the conditions in the prison are very poor, so he has been lingering on the sick bed, but with Bai Qi in charge of medical treatment, his life will not be in danger.

It's just that he will spend the rest of his life in a dark room of a few square meters on one side of the prison.

Nan Xiao once visited him, and the Prince looked at him no longer with the tenderness of his younger brother.

"Now you have fulfilled your wish, no, it should be said that Han Yuan has fulfilled your wish, has your father already decreed to pass on the throne to you?"

Nan Xiao didn't answer him.

There were indeed two decrees passed down to the army, one was to make his nephew the crown prince at Nan Xiao's request.

Another decree is for him and Han Yuan to get married as soon as possible.

They had their wedding in Beicheng.

That day Nan Xiao was very drunk, he rummaged through the boxes and boxes and gave Han Yuan the gift he had made a long time ago, and he didn't remember what nonsense he said.

But it was rare for Han Yuan to get drunk. Nan Xiao still remembered that the other party hugged him deeply, put a ring on him, kissed him lightly, and repeated in his ear.

"...Remember, Your Highness, no matter what happens, I will always be there."
