Quick Travel: Dream Hunt

Ting He smiled and said:

"Why are you thinking about these things? Prince Ning is in prison, and Concubine Ning is in the cold palace. These two mothers and sons who bullied you have received their due retribution. You should be happy. Besides, it is also possible that your father was testing Prince Ning, and then felt that he was not suitable to be the emperor, so he dealt with him directly. Your father only has two sons, you and Yu Linzuo. If he is not capable, then the only one who can take the throne is you, right?"

Who knew that after hearing these words, Yu Linyuan was not happy but frowned and thought about something. Finally, he said:

"Actually, I am not the emperor's son..."

"Huh? Who told you?" Ting He asked hurriedly.

Yu Linyuan continued:

"My father told me. He said that his second prince failed in his rebellion and was executed, leaving my mother and me in her belly without anyone to take care of me. At that time, it just so happened that my grandfather, the prime minister, supported my father to succeed to the throne, and the two sides reached an agreement. My father and my mother would take the position of empress and the position of crown prince. My father eventually succeeded to the throne and made me the crown prince. But in fact, I am not his child, but the son of the second prince who failed in his rebellion and was executed. My father also saved my mother and my life. Even after my grandfather, the prime minister, passed away, he did not expose our identities as mother and son and deprive me of my position as crown prince."

Ting He did not interrupt Yu Linyuan's story. She seemed to want to say something but finally said nothing. She just sat quietly beside him, listening to him talk about him and his mother.

Ting He waited for him to finish speaking, then asked doubtfully:

"So what? What does your majesty mean by telling you this?"

Yu Linyuan lowered his eyes with no expression visible, and said solemnly:

"He asked me to go to the border as an idle king and not to return to the court without permission."

Ting He raised her head in surprise, "Your Majesty actually issued such an order... Isn't it obvious that he wants to abandon you?"

She held Yu Linyuan's hand, trying to give him some strength, "So what are you going to do?"

Yu Linyuan was silent for a moment, a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and he said hesitantly:

"I don't want to compromise easily, but I am not my father's biological child. I think my father has done his utmost to let me guard the border. I, I don't know what to do..."

Ting He hesitated and asked:

"So, do you want this position?"

Yu Linyuan frowned and was silent for a long time before saying:

"The emperor nominally has only two children, Yu Linzuo and me. Yu Linzuo was imprisoned by the emperor, so I am the only one who has the right of succession. However, the emperor told me about my life experience and sent me to the border. I can't guess what the emperor means. Has he really decided to deal with Yu Linzuo or find a reason to imprison him? In fact, he just wants to protect him and make way for him."

Ting He nodded, smiled and grabbed Yu Linyuan's hand and said:

"It doesn't matter. No matter what His Majesty means, it can't change your mind. If you want that position, we will take it away. I will always be with you. No matter what decision you make, I will support you."

Yu Linyuan looked at Tinghe with burning eyes and asked:

"Really? Thank you, Holly, but why didn't you mention what you would do if I didn't want this position?"

Ting He blinked a few times and said unnaturally:

"If you don't want to sit in this position, then I will take it back and put you in it. I, Yun Tinghe, want a lot, and I'm afraid that I can't get it if I'm not the queen, so, do you understand what I mean?"

Yu Linyuan looked at Ting He in surprise and said:

"You should have told me earlier. I thought you liked a life of leisure or war, so I never made up my mind. Now I have made up my mind. That position will definitely be mine. When the time comes, I will definitely marry you back to the palace with the kingdom as matchmaker and the position as betrothal."

Hearing He's ears turn slightly red and turn his head and say:

"Who wants to marry you? Stop talking nonsense. I am the Marquis of Yong'an who cares about the whole world. I am not a little woman who will be tied down by love affairs."

Yu Linyuan also pinched Tinghe's cheek in return and said with a smile:

"Okay, okay, it doesn't matter if you don't marry me. Then I, your little brother, will take you back and make you the queen of the palace. I will let you experience the feeling of being a bandit queen. How about that?"

Ting He and Yu Linyuan ended the topic with a joke, but she always felt greasy in her heart. After they calmed down, Ting He immediately asked System Lao Liu for oil-removing powder. She always felt that she was a little love-sick recently. Not only did her brain not work well, but she was also a little greasy to the point of shaking.

……

System Lao Liu once asked Ting He why he didn't just tell Yu Linyuan about his life experience and expose the old emperor's lies. Ting He responded indifferently:

"Do you still think I'm really a fairy? And I have a God's perspective? How could I, a useless Miss Yun who was a useless girl a month and a half ago, know about Yu Linyuan's life experience even though he has been the crown prince for more than 20 years, and I know his background? Isn't that just causing trouble for me? If he has any questions, he will find out by himself. Why should I tell him? He is not a fool. Doesn't he know whether there are any doubts about his life experience? I just need to support him to become the emperor and I will become the queen. After giving birth to his children, my mission will be naturally completed. Why should I cause trouble for myself?"

System Lao Liu thought it made sense and stopped disturbing Tinghe from doing the task, but had a great time playing with the little fairy in the system space.

……

Yu Linyuan secretly gathered all his forces and arranged for them to prepare to seize the throne, but he didn't expect that the secret line in the palace directly sent news.

It was said that the old emperor was not in good health and could not visit the old emperor. In a rage, he took the eunuch to the cold palace to torture Concubine Ning. Finally, he went to the Tianlao to interrogate Prince Ning in person. No one knew what the two talked about. Prince Ning got angry and broke free from the chains. He picked up the torture instruments next to him and killed the eunuch next to the old emperor, and stabbed the old emperor. When he was caught by the guards and executed, he was still arrogantly saying that this was all fake, impossible, and they were all liars. In the end, he bluntly said that he was the emperor and he must stab the old emperor to death.

Yu Linyuan was stunned for a while. After waving away the secret guards, he immediately went to find Tinghe and told her the latest news from the palace. After the two looked at each other for a moment, they saw disbelief in each other's eyes. After discussing with each other, they immediately made a plan.

Yu Linyuan meant to take the throne in a fair and honest manner while saving the old emperor's life.

Tinghe was afraid that things would get more complicated, so she suggested breaking into the palace and asking the old emperor to issue an imperial decree to abdicate. The two of them had a conflict over this decision.
