Ying Bao immediately ran back to the Triumph Palace to look for her mother. When she saw her mother, she threw herself into her arms and cried.

“What’s wrong, Ying Bao?” Jing Xi asked when she noticed how devastated her daughter was.

“Waah… Mommy… Uncle… he left…”

Realizing that that was what she was upset about, Jing Xi smiled and comforted her. “Mommy knows. He has returned to the kingdom. He didn’t wait for you to come back because he doesn’t want you to worry. He said that he will still come to watch your performance on the day itself.”

Hearing her mother’s words, Ying Bao suddenly stood up from her arms and asked excitedly, “Mommy, you’re saying… you’re… Uncle, he… he’s not dead?”

“Yeah, who said that Xuanye is dead? He has just gone home!”

Ying Bao was finally relieved. She wiped her tears and said, “Oh my! I thought… Ah… after all this, I thought… I was scared to death!”

Ying Bao regained her composure and patted her chest. She really felt that she had misunderstood the nurse’s meaning just now. She had cried so much for nothing.

Knowing that Huangfu Xuanye had only returned to the country and not passed away, Ying Bao smiled happily and said, “Mommy, I’m so stupi

“Ha…” Jing Xi looked at her daughter’s face that was red from crying and asked,” I noticed that you’re quite worried about Xuanye, aren’t you?”

“Of course. Uncle is sick. How can I not be worried?”

“Then… would you be willing to take care of him everyday from now on?”

“Of course…” Ying Bao replied. She suddenly realized what her mother meant and was stunned.

Jing Xi did not ask anything else. Instead, she instructed her, “Okay, hurry up and go wash your face! Your face is stained with tears.”

“Okay.”

Ying Bao walked into the palace. She was still thinking about the question just now. Her mother had asked her if she was willing to take care of Huangfu Xuanye every day from now on.

Her first thought was, ‘Of course I’d be willing.

But wouldn’t taking care of someone every day be a promise of a lifetime?

At this moment, Ying Bao did not really understand. She felt as if a crack had opened up in her pure heart and something was quietly pouring into it.

‘When she thought of Huangfu Xuanye’s face, she felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. She did not know when it started, but her feelings for him had undergone a subtle change.

She began to miss him whenever she was away from him. She hoped that he would keep his word and come to see her performance.

Northern Kingdom.

The private plane arrived at the capital of the Northern Kingdom.

Huangfu Xuanye returned to the Hua Er Palace under the protection of his entourage.

During the time he was away from the Northern Kingdom, numerous state affairs had piled up and were waiting for him to handle when he came back. Therefore, after he returned to the country, he did not rest for a moment and immediately began to deal with the problems.

When the ministers learned that the king was sick, they all urged him to recuperate. However, Huangfu Xuanye did not want to waste any time because his days were numbered.

He finished his work late at night and summoned his secretary, Sheng Yi, whom he then gave some instructions.

What he wanted Sheng Yi to do was not related to work, but personal matters. He planned to choose a suitable woman from the country to marry and make her his queen.

Although he did not want to marry anyone else, his country needed an heir now.

He needed a woman who was willing to bear his child.

After all, he was choosing a queen. Other than being healthy, the candidate also had to have a correspondingly presentable family background. In that case, even if he passed away in the future, the family of his child’s mother could provide a reliable guarantee for the child’s future and prepare him to

inherit the throne.
