The dinner was considered an unhappy break up, and Yu Yuan deliberately sent Madeleine back to her residence. Before leaving, Madeleine grabbed his sleeve again.

"Your Highness the Queen, can I still find you in the future?" The girl blinked her eyes.

"Of course." Yu Yuan touched the little girl's head, "Come to me anytime you want."

Little Madeleine watched the Queen's back go away, and secretly wrote down the agreement.

The next day, Yu Yuan had to start solving the problem of Fernando's surveillance of him. Although the two knights at the door, a red-haired and a gray-haired, had never stopped him from going anywhere, they obviously kept following him, fearing that Fernando would know the news as soon as he reached Durand on the front foot.

Yu Yuan didn't care whether he knew it or not. The problem was that this might threaten Durand's safety. Fernando dressed like a man all day long, but who knew what he actually thought about this crown prince.

In fact, Nancy also told him that the crown prince had originally sent a servant to deliver the letter, but it was also detained by someone arranged by the king. By this time, Yu Yuan knew thoroughly that Fernando seemed to be calm on the surface, but in reality he probably had already made arrangements in all aspects.

In one day, he tried to ask the maid to lead the two knights away from the door, or put on light clothes and go out the window, but all the attempts ended in vain, not to mention the last time he was standing in the garden Considering the possibility of overturning the wall, Fernando, who "passed by by chance", kindly reminded: "With your skills, you'd better be careful to lie on the bed with a broken leg for three months."

Before going offline at night, Yu Yuan finally couldn't help looking for Lin Ling.

"Are you sure the game is going on normally now?"

Fernando was strictly guarded, and he had no chance to contact Durand at all, let alone discuss the next step. Unless there is a problem with his thinking, is it possible that he can continue the plan without leaving the palace?

Seeing that Yu Yuan was busy all day like a monkey, Lin Ling felt a little sympathetic, so he could only say: "Your thinking is restricted, this type of holographic game depends not only on yourself, but also on yourself. Most of them are NPCs, and they will act when they are real people."

After letting go of this sentence, Lin Ling went offline first, leaving Yu Yuan alone to taste the meaning.

NPCs...would they need their help?

Before going online again the next day, the first thing Yu Yuan did was to browse through the list of NPCs he could trust. Only then did he understand the meaning of Lin Ling's words. He shouldn't try to climb over walls, sneak out of the palace, etc. in the first place, because this is a holographic game that simulates reality. Since there is an NPC, it means that someone can help him.

Like Howard has a sister Wendy, and that's an excuse he can use now. So today, the queen finally successfully left the palace on the grounds of "going to visit Miss Wendy". Of course, this reason can't be used many times, but it's definitely no problem to use it a few times now.

The Howard family manor is not far from the royal city, and the queen's trip is not a big fan, but it is only a private meeting. When they got here, the two knights sent by Fernando waited in the manor, and the queen was greeted by Miss Wendy and the servants to the second floor.

As soon as they went up, as expected, Howard, the leader of the knights, was waiting by the window sill, and under the puzzled eyes of his sister Wendy, let everyone else go down first, claiming that there was something to discuss with the queen.

Only the two of them were left on the balcony on the second floor.

"You got the news early in the morning, why did you come here?" Howard was holding a glass of wine in his hand and took a sip to his lips, "Wouldn't you really come to chat with Wendy?"

"I need your help." Yu Yuan didn't mean to hide it. After all, Howard's loyalty is there, and it is impossible to suddenly turn against the tide. "I have to meet the crown prince these days, and I want to borrow your place."

He also thought about it himself, and being here is the safest reason. He left the palace on the grounds of seeing Miss Wendy, and Durand could also come here to visit the Howard family. The only problem was that he needed Howard's own support.

"Cough, cough." Hearing this, Howard took a sip of wine immediately, with a look of disbelief, "Her Royal Highness, you and the crown prince need to use my place for private meetings, isn't it appropriate?"

Howard thought the queen was here to explain what happened to him last time, but he didn't expect to be hit by another crit. Maybe I made a promise to "help within my ability" before, but I also didn't expect to go into this troubled water as soon as I came up.

I also knew that the queen would prefer the crown prince rather than the new king, but I didn't expect that the queen would choose to put herself into the plan to be executed.

"I'm serious, Howard." Yu Yuan's eyes were calm. "You also know the current situation in the royal city. The new king will not allow me to meet the crown prince, but I have to see him again these days."

Howard was silent, unbuttoning his collar a little bit, only to feel chest tightness and shortness of breath.

Lin Ling reminded: "No matter how extreme your push is, you can't do it - at least give some benefits, right? How much is a sincerity."

Yu Yuan felt that Lin Ling's words made sense and accepted it readily, so he said to Howard: "After the matter is completed, you can name the marquis, expand the fief, or any other reward as you like."

"His Royal Highness." Howard put down the cup, "Are you sure you can help the crown prince? To be honest, I must be very sure of your determination to do so."

Just helping the crown prince a few times by accident is obviously different from standing directly on the crown prince's side. The queen's current order means that both of them must stand behind the crown prince.

Yu Yuan glanced at him, "Yes, I must do this."

"How sure are you?"

"..." Yu Yuan paused for a moment before giving the answer, "I will spare no effort to make him the king."

"Why?!"

Hearing this, Howard seemed a little excited, and his tone increased, "Your Highness, the Crown Prince is not even related to you at all, even if he wants to fight with His Majesty, you can watch by yourself or just take a shot or two if necessary. Second, you don't have to get so deep, and no one will threaten your status."

Lin Ling acted as the announcer and reported in real time: "Your over-promoting loyalty has risen to 73%, and it has grown so fast in a short period of time. It's really terrifying."

Because this is my clearance goal.

Yu Yuan thought about one set of truths in his heart, and opened his mouth to say the other set he had made up before, "Because Durand is more suited to be a king than Fernando."

The two looked at each other, and without a word, Howard knew what the queen was referring to, and was silent again.

First, the old king died too suddenly from a sudden illness, and many things were not checked out in time, but the new king supervised the funeral again, and even the late crown prince didn't even attend the old king's funeral. The second is that the name of the new king "violent" did not come for no reason. The new king had been in the expedition for several years, and many of his acquaintances had now become minor nobles, and they all knew that the new king had been there. In a **** career and on the battlefield, it was difficult to control the red eye every time he killed, and there were even rumors that he personally twisted the head of the enemy several times.

"But Your Royal Highness, you should know best, the benevolent character of the crown prince..." Howard has said this as euphemistically as possible. Although he doesn't agree with the new king Fernando very much, he wants to stand in a neutral position for himself. If the crown prince needs it, maybe he will help. However, it is also a matter of careful consideration to devote all my heart to helping the crown prince.

Durand was established as the crown prince since he was a child, and lived under the protection of the old king. He rarely left the royal city, let alone experienced. In this regard, he has a huge shortcoming, and at the same time, he has a slightly gentle character, let alone arbitrariness. This is where he lost to Fernando.

If you insist on choosing between the two... Howard shook his head, still feeling that the queen did not need to be involved in this matter at all, "If you are worried about the safety of the crown prince, I will help." But I don't want you to threaten your safety.

"Howard, you just need to give me an answer." Yu Yuan's eyes were firm, "Can you help me meet the crown prince, give me a positive or negative answer."

The next night.

When Miss Wendy was walking in her garden, she saw her brother Howard squatting in the corner smoking a cigarette as if he had rolled it himself. When he inhaled, his face was clouded with sorrow, and when he exhaled, his face was still full of sadness.

"Brother, what's the matter?" Wendy stepped forward and was very concerned about her brother's emotional problems.

You must know that her brother was once an expert in Wangcheng's social circle, and it was not pleasant to walk freely at various banquets. No matter how serious his work in the Knights was during the day, how handsome he looked when he returned from a banquet in the middle of the night, how could there be such a sullen face to hide and smoke a cigarette.

When Howard saw that it was his sister, he immediately pressed the cigarette against the wall to put it out, patted the dust and stood up, "I'm fine."

"How could it be all right." Winnie stuck out her tongue, looked at the roses blooming in the garden, and then looked at her brother, feeling a stark contrast between vigor and listlessness, "Is the work on the Knights' side not going well? Do you want to go back to your room to rest first?"

"No, I forgot, did you have a guest in the study today?" Wendy just remembered that there was a guest who visited before, and then smiled sweetly, "I didn't see it when I came in, who is it? Your friend ?"

"Forget it." Howard didn't know what words to use to describe this relationship for a while, so he could only respond casually.

"Then don't go up to entertain friends, but squat here smoking cigarettes." Winnie waved her hand to her brother to follow her, "Come on, I'll go to the kitchen to get some snacks and black tea, you can bring them by the way."

ten minutes later.

Howard knocked on the study door of his room, "It's me."

With the sound of the door lock turning, the door opened with a gap just wide enough for one person to pass by. Howard squeezed in with refreshments, feeling like the dignified leader of the knights was a waiter delivering afternoon tea.

It was Crown Prince Durand who opened the door for him, and the Queen sitting in his former position, squinting and smiling at him, "Howard, I must thank you again for your generous help."

There were some handwritten documents on the table, and Howard didn't read it carefully. He knew what the queen was discussing with the crown prince here. He also knew that he was considered a "crown prince faction", and everyone was in the same boat.

The question is, why is the boat leaning so badly.

He felt like he was on the other side of the leak.

"...Tea is easy to cool, remember to drink it quickly." Howard put down the dinner plate, glanced at the queen and the crown prince Durand who was standing next to him, collided with the latter's eyes for a moment, turned and left.

Why do you feel that you have fulfilled others? God knows why he would lend his house.

Howard went back to the downstairs corner again to blow air.

"Remember to level a bowl of water." Outside the court, Lin Ling, who had witnessed the whole process, reminded Yu Yuan again, "But looking at the way you push it too much, he will level the water you are not level."

"Yes, this psychological quality is worth learning."
