Interstellar Empire, Your Highness, please don’t get sick.

Zuo Xinhua still doesn't know about his ex-husband's past, so Yan Zhao and Guan You decided not to tell him about it.

Because even Lu Yunqi didn't know the whole story. Even though he had asked countless times what happened during Guan You's enthronement ceremony, Lu Pei always remained silent.

Guan You also believed that knowing this would not be a good thing for Lu Yunqi and Zuo Xinhua.

Yan Zhao is a person who can keep secrets, and he doesn't reveal anything at all.

Seeing that Zuo Xinhua is still so happy now, Yan Zhao also smiled happily.

After the celebration banquet, Zuo Xinhua sat on the aircraft with Lu Yunqi and sent him to the palace.

Zuo Xinhua talked about the reform measures promulgated by Guan You in the past two years and the opposition of ministers.

"In my opinion, His Majesty wants to do big things. If he accomplishes it, the next generation of the empire will be completely changed." Zuo Xinhua was born into a rich family, so naturally he doesn't just know how to chase stars.

Lu Yunqi was also very smart and asked: "Mom, are you talking about the vocational school system and the annual departmental examination selection system? This is indeed very bold and will give ordinary people the opportunity to become top talents."

"Yes, there used to be university selection exams, but one exam determined the outcome, and many places were occupied by recommended honorees. Now in this system, there are a lot of variables."

Yan Zhao had not been in Capital Star for a long time and did not understand the current situation, so he asked: "Are there many people who oppose him?"

"Of course, most nobles are opposed to reform." Zuo Xinhua looked at him lovingly and said, "I think your Majesty does need the company of friends."

Although she does not criticize this couple, Guan You's busyness these days is precious to anyone who wants to make the empire better.

Yan Zhao has contact with Guan You at least once every two months. Recently, he has heard fewer and fewer complaints from him, and thought the reform was going smoothly. In fact, he asked twice, but Guan You brushed him off.

I also know that vested interests will not give up their privileges.

On the ground, the huge palace complex gradually appeared, and each palace was lit up, making the place look like daytime.

Before Yan Zhao set off, he called Guan You in advance and canceled the dinner. He was willing to come to the palace because he wanted to chat with Guan You, not because he wanted to eat.

After the aircraft stopped, the guards who came to greet him were very enthusiastic and welcomed him all the way to the Imperial Garden.

Yan Zhao walked into the front yard filled with lights, saw Guan You standing under the corridor, and waved to him.

After two years of not seeing each other, Guan You's appearance and figure didn't seem to have changed at all, but his temperament had become a little colder. When he met Yan Zhao's eyes, this feeling of ice and snow melted away instantly.

"Guan You!" Yan Zhao smiled unconsciously, took out his gift from his pocket and handed it over, "For you."

Guan You picked up the specimen and took a look. It was a palm-sized insect beast that was made into a specimen and embedded in an A4-sized box.

"A very rare small red larvae, thank you." Guan You accepted it cherishedly and asked the attendant to put it in the exhibition cabinet in his bedroom.

Yan Zhao raised the corners of his lips, feeling happy for his knowledge: "This kind of larvae is very difficult to catch. From catching to making specimens, I did everything myself."

"It's amazing. Speaking of which, the students at Capital Star are also very interested in larvae. At the previous Kite Festival, I saw someone's kite painted with this on the cloth..."

The two of them walked into the room while chatting, and the guards followed behind, amazed.

Especially the new guards in front of the palace. They have never seen His Majesty chatting with other people so freely, and they still chatted about some inexplicable gossip.

It seems that the old-timers are right, Yan Zhao is really a distinguished guest who cannot be ignored.

They chatted all night on the first night. Yan Zhao didn't wake up until noon the next day. After washing, he walked to the main hall and heard the conversation of several people inside.

Realizing that Guan You might already be at work, Yan Zhao was about to retreat to the bedroom when he heard a minister say impassionedly:

"If His Majesty refuses to establish a queen because of Mr. Yan who entered the palace last night, then I request you to give up this idea, because the empire cannot let the bloodline of the Guan family be cut off!"

"I second the proposal!"

There were popping sounds, and Yan Zhao felt like the ministers were kneeling.

Then Guan You said condescendingly: "I didn't expect that the eyeliners you set up in the palace would move very quickly. It's really eye-opening."

"I am guilty!"

"Then just kneel down."

Before Yan Zhao had time to run away, Guan You pushed the door open and bumped into him.

"I'm not intentional……"

"I know, go get some ice cream?"

People like to eat ice when they are in a bad mood, Yan Zhao knows this. So he immediately agreed and went to the imperial dining room with Guan You. The two of them sat at the small table next to the stove and ate ice cream dug out of the freezer.

"Actually, if you don't want to cut off the Guan family's genes, you can do more genetic experiments." Yan Zhao took a spoonful of chocolate ice and seriously suggested, "At your current age, it may still be too late."

Guan You smiled, shrugged and said, "Don't pay attention to them. Society is reforming now, and the royal family also needs it. They should understand that nothing lasts forever."

"Wise." Yan Zhao nodded in agreement. He felt that Guan You had accomplished something in his studies and he was becoming more and more friendly with him.

There were only two weeks of family leave in total. Yan Zhao originally thought that staying in the palace would be boring, but this was not the case. Even when Guan You is working, he can go around by himself, including going to the Yuqian underground research base to do experiments.

He sent a message to He Simiao, but found that he did not reply.

"Strange, didn't he really want to play with me before?"

Guan You heard it from the side and became a little worried, so he said, "I'll send someone to take a look."

Unexpectedly, when the secret guards arrived, they found that He Simiao was not at home. After asking his current boss, William, he discovered that he had not gone to work for a week.

"Something's not right. I just arrived at Capital Star a week ago. At that time, he said he would hold a reception banquet for me, but he didn't show up."

It was related to the time of Yan Zhao's return, which forced Guan You to pay attention and immediately sent the Privy Council to conduct a comprehensive investigation.

Soon, news came from the Privy Council confirming He Simiao's disappearance.
